OPPOSITION TO LABOR TRUST
The proposed activity of organized labor
In I u . .....
another organization, the citizens' in
dustrial association, which claims a
membership of approximately 8,600,000
workers, which is going into politics too,
according to C. W. Post, its president.
Mr. Post says that the citizens of this
country will just as surely put a labor
trust candidate into oblivion as the
avowed reprernjative of that trust and
not of the pebpYe aytfhey -would, or at
least should, defeat represve of ex
press, railroad, or oil tru'st ''mterests.
Anyone who is a good citizen has not-
judice against organized labor. There are
but few of the citizens in this country
who are not workers. The fact that
workers in certain employments are
organized into trade unions does not
prove that they work harder or are en
titled to special consideration above the
rest of the people.
Broad minded men have and will insist
that the high offices shall be filled by
men who represent no class or trust or
organization, but represent their country
and all its people. It is an old fight and
we shall never see the end of it, that be
tween capital and labor. It is not sur
prising that it should appear in this form
in politics. It will be interesting to see
how it develops.

JAPAN'S NEW OITEF (OMMANDFR
Field Marshal Oyama has retired from
the head of the Japanese army and Can.
Kodama succeeds him. Oyama was the
military genius commanding the Japanese
land forces in the war against Russia and
has taken rank by his achievements with
the greatest commanders in history of
the world. He is an old man now.
Kodama is little known in America. He
was of humble birth and while he rose to
a high position in the army, did not get
himself talked about much by the people.
When the war came on with Russia he
somehow knew more about the navy and
army and all the details of equipment
than any other man in Japan. Now we
are told, he was the power behind the
throne all through the war, who told the
field marshals and general what to do,
He had the rank of lieutenant-general
and was assistant-chief of the general
staff while Oyama was chief and Marshal
Yamagato was supposed, at least outside
Japan, to be a greater military man than
Kodama. Now it appears that his was
the brain that really directed the war.
the success of which proved his great
ness.
