Another verifica tion of Will Carlton's tribute to his school fellow as a reader: "There was young Sylvester Jones of inconsistent sight. "Who sturnbled on the easy i!vords and read the hard ones right." The Puzzles. Of the six puzzles in our issue of April 20th practically every one was answereJ. correccly by more than a dozen correspondents. The correct an swers are as follows: Strong Combination of Firms Un\te in Attacking the Law. Tremendous Political Influence Behind the Assailant's Contention. Labor men disposed to look upon the bright side of things have been under the impression that the eight-hour work day was established as a prin ciple, theoretically at least, in this country. If those optimists will look about them they \yill probably have a rude awakening, writes Joseph R. Buchanan in the New York Journal. Labor fought for years before it won general acceptance of its right to or ganize. Now there are few who dis pute that right. In the same way the shorter work day education has been carried for ward until the economists and the theorists pretty generally have conce ded that eight hours in twenty-four is enough for each laborer to work. In the building trades, the printing trades and some other industries the eight-hour workday is observed. For years there has been an eight-hour law applicable to work done for the na tional government, and some of the states have passed laws making eight hours a legal day's work on state and municipal contracts. Purpose of Opponent". The eight-hour movement has been having things too much its own way, according to certain large employing interests, and now war has been de clared against it. Not only is the fur ther progress of the movement to be stayed, but it is the purpose of the op ponents of the eight-hour day to undo ,as far as possible what has been done for its advancement. A combination of large contracting firms, representing, many millions of dollars, has just opened an attack upon the. national eight-hour law in the United States district court at Cleve land. It is reported that there is tre-. mendous political influence behind the assailants of the law and that the light will, if necessary, -be carried to the supreme court of the United States.

Under powers recognized in the interstate commerce laws it was attempted to compel the railways to treat their employes as human beings and at the same time safeguard the lives and interests of the people. It looks as if the prophecy made some years ago that "if the govern ment doesn't own. the railways the railways will own the government" was about fulfilled. Under the influ ence of the railway lobby, the railway senators and the railway congressmen, and it might not be amiss to add the railway members of. the interstate cofnmerce commission, the bill when it finally came up for passage was so emasculated as to leave it almost use less as a measure to accomplish the purposes for which it was originally intended. Eternal vigilance should be the motto of the organized wage workers. AN OUTRAGE. Recently in San Froncisco at a meet ing of the Industrial Workers of the World, the American flag was torn down and trampled upon. The Mine Workers' Journal, the official magazine of the United Mine Workers of Amer ica, treated the matter in the following language: "It was stated in the public press and confirmed by correspondence that some ff-enzied traitors, masquerading under the garb of unionism, tore down and trampled on the Stars and Stripes in San Francisco. "Let these anarchists be undeceived. That flag Is the flag of organized labor, its stripes atfe Our stripes, its stars are our stars it represents our coun try, our Institutions, our freedom. At any time at any place these ruffians do not like this country or its institu tions no attempt will be made to keep them" here. "The editor of the Mine Workers' Journal solemnly declares that if he were the executive in California or in San Francisco he would hang those people for treason if it were the last act of his life."

ONLY ASK: A SQUARE DEAL Shall Have FHir Profit-—Wadit Interesting Account of Labor Banquest Given by Seattle Contractor's Association. During- the Tveelr an association of contractors in-* Seattle, Wash:, gave a banquet -to men employed by.- them. It was the aftermath of ia.vdlspute over wages which threatened ..to lead to a great tie-Up of industry. There w6re many toasts responded to. Among them was: "Are the Unions ^Willing to' Co-operate With the Contractors?" It was responded to by a member of the Sheet Metal- Workers' Union in the following language: Position Clearly Defined. "My business is working with my hands, not with hiy mouth at my business I believe I am accounted a fairly good workman, and in perform ing the task to which you gentlemen have set me I can only hope that I will make good. The theme given me, which means literally 'Mutuality of Ac tion and Purpose Between Employer and Employe,' is a large one, in it is comprehended the Golden Rule, 'Do Unto Others as You Would Have Others Do Un£o You.' "Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen, that is the basic principle of organized labor. If you—all of you—at all times, were as willing to meet us half way as we are to meet you, with the pur pose of making our respective occupa tions both agreeable and profitable, with justice to each and due regard for the public—which employs us *both —the unions would never strike and the employers would not maintain blacklists. Asks Fair Dealing. "We welcome organization among our employers we believe that the more thoroughly they are organized the more effectively can they co-oper ate with our thorough organization for our mutual benefit. But we insist, gentlemen, and we have a right to in sist, that you organize as honestly as we have that when you send a com mittee to meet a committee of ours it shall have power to act, and that its acts will be lived up to by our or ganization, as the acts of our com mittees will be lived up to by our or ganization, "The public employs us both, it pays the profits of the contractor and the wages of the workingman. Gentlemen, why cannot we get together on this idea? Why cannot we each believe that the other is honest that the workingma,n desires to see the cons tructor make a fair profit on his risks and that the contractor is desirous that the workingman get a fair, return for his- labor. The public would be willing to pay us both more if it knew that we axe only, standing out for what is our due, and that we Would stick to gether." Mr. Union Man:—Notify your barber that the Bell 'Phone is Unfair. THE DIFFERENCE. The manufacturer insists upon set ting the price on the labor he buys and the goods he sells. That is called "business." The workingman asks the privilege of having a voice in setting the price of his commodity, labor, and wants to be protected against the rapacity of trusts and combinations. That is called "anarchy." Manufacturers combine to raise the price by limiting the supply of goods manufactured. That is called "high fluance." Workingmen organize unions to pre vent injustice and to elevate the stand ard of labor. That is called "interfering with free and independent labor." A trust is formed to buy up small and independent factories and close them down for the purpose of con trolling the supply. That is called "business enterprise." Labor unions seek to control the apprentice system, to the end that labor be not reduced to a starvation basis. That is called "preventing the youth of the land from learning useful trades." A financier steals a million entrust ed to his care. He is hailed as a "Napoleon of fin ance." A workingman steals a loaf 6f bread for his hungry1 babies and is sent to jail for six months. That is called "justice." A band of x'ich men combine to pre vent changes In administration that might injure their schemes. They are called "conservatives." A battd of thoughtful men with no aves to grind associate themselves together to bring about needed re forms in governmental affairs. They are called "dangerous agita tors." A Rbckerbilt social function costs $35,000 and $3,000,06 worth of dia monds are on display. That is called an "evidence of pros perity." Ten thousand idle workingmen apply for help. That is called an "evidence of shlft lessness." Clearly we are in need of a cominis elon to reconcile the differences In our lines of definitions.
