The obstinacy of the coal barons to
lead their aid to solve the coal xtrike
and tbu* avert an appalling public cab-.m
ity deserves the condemnation of every
right thinking man. A part from the
essential difference* which divide the
ojx-ratoi* and dtriker* there i* aiiotlier
party the public to lie considered in
this grave industrial situation as
pointed out by President Roosevelt.
It is necessary for the public to
have anthracite coal to live comfortably
during the winter, and when the fact is
considered that 90 per cent of the an
thracite deposits are embraced within
the limits of the strike and that th?re is
little cr no anthracite on the market,
the gravity of this industrial warfare is
approximated. Both miners and oper
ators should haye sank their differences
for tiie time being, called a truce, and
the mines should have been working
now to their fullest capacity.
But, no, the operators would not heed
the advice tendered by the president
simply because one man representing a
vast body of workers, John Mitchell,
was a party to the conference called at
the White House, It is queer that the
tendency of capital, is toward concen
tration, yet this same capital strikes
blow after blow at each effort of labor
to concentrate. The irresistible and
economic tendency drawing capital into
[ssils is juntas irresistible an 1 effectual
in combining laisir. The coal barons
m.iv win a victory over the miners, but
it would lie but a brief one, because at
the first realization in the minds of non
union miners that their situations were
burdensome there would naturally
spring op a desire for a remedy and
labor lias but one remedy unionism.
For our own part we would wish for
a relationship between capital and
laisir based on merit. We believe, that
Ihe principle of combination for the
control of prices or for the fixing of
wages, is false as viewed from a wise
economic policy. A worker should be
rewarded in proportion to the value of
his work For instance a union fixes a
minimum scale of wages: this minimum
scale includes the poor as well as the
good material; the scale necessarily
operates to the disadvantage of employ
er and employe, the employer suffers
by having frequently to pay inexper
ienced help the same price as competent
help, and capable workman suffer often
times by having t > work at the mini
mum scale when he is worth more.
Merit should be the only basis of com
liensation, but whether such an ideal
state of affairs will exist seems proble
matical .

received respectful and close attention
from those who have heard him, while
his speeches have carried conviction to
the voters. The enthusiasm that his
canvass of the state has aroused, the
accession of independent and dissatisfied
Republican voters to the support of the
Democratic ticket, every where evident,
indicate that the people of Wisconsin
have fully determined to return to a
reign of reason and give to the state an
administration devoted to the retrench
ment and economy in pnblic expendi
tures and put an end to the turmoil and
agitation that La Follette and his de
luded followers have aroused through
out the sta.e since his unbridled am
bition was given free rein by his election
to the high office of governor of the
state of Wisconsin.
ABOUT THE TARIFF-
Speaking about the tariff and bad
times the Springfield, (Mass ) Republi
can says: “There is no difference
between the present tariff situation and
agitation and what the country exper
ienced during the congressional elections
of I him). Then we heard less about the
trusts, but the individual manufactur
ers, taking advantage of the high duties
imposed by the newly enacted McKin
ley law, brought alwuit quite a general
advance in prices, which fell suddenly
and harshly upon the pockets of the
people, and was supposed to have
caused the great political overturn of
that year, when a Republican majority
in ihe house was turned into the small
est minority that party had had since
liefore the civil war,
“Republican orators then, while un
able to deny facts as to prices, urged
the consideration that competition was
still free and open in the home market
and must in tine time grind down home
prices to the lowest level consistent
with living wages and profits; and
Speaker Reed particularly pressed the
argument that the high tariff, by invit
ing new capital into manufacturing at
home, and forcing foreign manufactur
ers into sharjier competition for out
side markets, gave a doube twist to the
screws and greatly inter sifted competi
tion all around thus making the high
tariff of benefit to Ihe consumer above
any other interest.
“There was some force in this argu
ment. though it availed not to save the
day for the high tariff [leople, but what
ever force belonged to it has been taken
away by the rise of the trusts, which,
by the way, are defended for abating
the ruinous force of competition as the
tariff in IHIIO was defended for intensi
fying competition. What individual
manufacturers were then able to do
temporarily under the shelter of high
customs taxes, they are now in combi
nation able to do with more or less per-

manency under the name shelter. And
we have precisely the same complaint
now in respect of the Dingley tariff as
we had then in respect of the McKinley
tariff-high commodity prices and pro
fits of a particular industrial class,
made possible by high protective duties.
The grievance is essentially the same
today as a dozen years ago.
“Whether the political outcome is to
be the same at the November elections
is another question. Whether it is de
sirable, from the standpoint of bringing
to pass an intelligent popular under
standing of the tariff and its relation to
Industry—whether it is desirable from
this standpoint that the outcome should
be the same, is decidedly to be question
ed. The protected interests can much
better afford to lose these elections than
tariff reformers to gain them. We all
know thut the victories won by the lat
ter in IHOftand 1892 were worse than a
dozen defeats for that particular cause;
and what is true of those victories is
true of nearly every previous gain of
the kind in the past half century, and
for the same reasons, which are obvious
and more pertinent today than ever be
fore.
“Owing to the vital connection of the
tariff with the public revenue, and of
the latter with the money market and
sjK'cnlation and business, it comes to
pass that only in times of great prosper
ity and speculative inflation does the
tariff appear not only superfluous to a
degree, but also disturbing to the money
market* as well as a shelter to the pro
tected interests in exacting the highest
obtainable prices. Hence invariably
we have an agitation for tariff reduction
reaching up to the point of Incoming
practically effective just as a speculative
boom begins to culminate. So we have
in due order, decade by decade, a tariff
revision followed by a speculative col
lapse which was in order in any event,
but which has so often been closely
associated with tariff reduction as pro
foundly to impress the public mind with
being a case of cause and effect.
“This was the experience of 1857,
when a tariff reduction to relieve an
overflowing public treasury was closely
followed by a panic It was so 30 yea. s
ago, when a horizontal tariff reduction
of about 10 per cent in 1872 (made by
the friends of the tariff) was followed
by the panic of 1873—though nobody
seems to remember that a restoration of
the tariff in 1875 had no effect whatever
in restoring confidence and reviving in
dustry. The little patter of revision in
IHH3 was followed by a panic in IHHd,
and lo years later we saw what every
body now recalls.
“The experience of 50 years shows the
importance to tariff reform of timing it
more happily than has heretofore been
the case. No one of any study or ob
servation, we suppose, connects the pan
ics of IH7U or IMB4 with the tariff reduc
tions of 1872 and 1883; and only extreme
partisans of the tariff venture to relate
the panics of 1857 arid 1893 to the tariff
reduction of the former year and the
promise of reduction of the latter year.
But so many close associations of two
particular developments impress a great
many people, or render them easily sub
ject to the plausible representations of
the high tariff orator;and it is desirable,
for the sake of straight popular think
ing on tiie subject, that the numlier of
these coincidences i>e not added to.

account, about as unpropitions for
tariff reduction as could possibly i>e
chosen, and any reformer with a look
ahead, and a recollection of the past,
must hope that revision and reduction
may somehow be delayed. It is idle to
expect that popular agitation for reduc

count. It arrows out of conditions
touching the people’s pockets, and will
proceed in spite of any such protests or
considerations. But it ought to be un
derstood that those mischievous fellows,
the tariff reformers, are not at the bot
