Maada l luhor iniiv woll he eonceriie.l lieeau.se of recent inllammatory deliverances which seemed to he made by nnthorit Tho American Federation of Labor declares that they will resist, an minuet nm Hint in their imlinnent. is contrary to their rights. M Lee declares that they are for eight hour labor for all men, and they cannot get it they will light. This may he rhetorical language or hyperbolical language; In this is the time for the friends of labor, for the laboring men them selves to consider She meaning of these utterances. You cannot better tin- condition of laboring men by invokin civil war. We must leave all disputed points to the courts, we must leave all law making to Congress and the legislative bodies, we must abide by the law as passed until il is declared null and void by th courts. We must, abide bv decision of the courts, until through th due process of law, the people of American, including the laborin men, but not composed entirely of the organized labor element, get their decrees written on the statute books. It is with individuals in America as it is with the nations Enrope, with this difference, that here in America we have a perma ncnt system of arbitration called the court system. The nations o Europe have no such organization, so when they disagree they fight The result is that the interests of labor are set. back fifty years i three years of conflict. The interests of labor would be set back fifty years in six month of conflict such as Mr. Lee invites and such as the unbalanced deelara tion of the American Federation of Labor favors. The Evening Post believes that the laboring men will get th eight-hour law in the course of a reasonable time and it believe!- moreover, that those eight hours of labor will secure for the laboring men better conditions of life, more of the comforts of life, freedon from fear of the loss of a job or the radical reduction of the purcbas ing power of wages. These conditions cannot be obtained through conflict ; they musi come through discussion and intelligent action. You cannot possible increase the purchasing power of eight hours of work by limiting production through force or through a misconception of the laws life. You can only get more for eight, hours' work by producing more, by being more efficient individually and collectively. When men, therefore, in America talk about resisting the decree of the courts, talk about lighting if they cannot get what they want they are preaching a doctrine the cost of which is to be like unto tli cost of war in Europe, and the price in that cost will come from tin working classes than from any other class. We are not blind to the lawlessness of the rich ; to their cunning their greed, to their ruthless use of power; but we trust throuirl discussion and political action that we can shackle running?; that w can bring great combinations in restraint of trade to the recognitioi of their obligations to'obey all law, even the Sherman anti-trust law But the cunning of the rich does not justify the violei of th poor. In this Republic the voice of the people Anally controls tli courts and Congress and commerce; but it must be a voice like Hint from bmai, establishing justice, condemning violence: "Thou ihalt not kill;" condemning cunning: 'Thou shalt not lie;" condeuinin forcible seizure of other men s goods: Thou shalt not covet th neighbor's house ;" promoting domestic comfort and happiness ' Honor thy father and mother;" establishing religion and morality "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." and promoting good fel lowship among all men; with the new commandment that thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Louisville Post. MEXICAN FACTS AND GRINGO PROBLEMS First Chief Carranza. aided in revolution hv our own Government and recognized as the head of the de facto Government by the powe that made rim such, has decreed that Americans owning mines in Mexico must operate them by February 14, 1917, or they will be confiscated by him. In the face of this decree First Chief Carranza demands tlx withdrawal of the living American troops from the sacred soil ol Mexico. First Chief Carranza delivered some months ago the bodies ol thjj 16 United States troopers killed at Carrizal while obeying the orders of their officers and our and their Covernment. First Chief Carranza last January delivered the bodies of l American miners who had entered Mexico 48 hours prior to tlieii massacre with assurances of our State Department that they wen safe, and when massacred they carried the same passports of tin officers of First Chief Carranza. According to this latest decree of First Chief Carranza Aineri cans must operate their mines In February 14, 1M7, or they will be taken from them by him. President Wilson's warning to United States citizens to keep onl of Mexico still stands. We doubt if the I'nitcd States Department of State will assure Americans entering Mexico of their safety. We doubt, if it did give them such assurance, that they would he any safer than the loval Americans massacred at Santa Ysabel. We doubt, if the President of the United States ordered them intotMexico, that they would be any safer than were the troopers shot down at ( anizal who were there doing duty by his orders. It may be best, under existing circumstances, to withdraw the troops from Mexico. They might injure some of the murderers of their comrades; they might be called upon to protect themselves. They are safer far up north of the Rio Grande. The quest LOS now is. Why were they ever sent there? Cincinnati Kmjuirer. Tlw I'at.rson (N. J.)
