tavor; and If the people perforin
thoir civic duties, there will be no
plutocracy ruling In the name of the
dollar. Here tho road to advance
ment Is a public highway, and It Is
within our power to keep Jt open to
all alike. Here, too, the government
is within the control of tho people,
and no department of the service is
out of the reach of the voter or be
yond the Influence of public opinion.
Under our constitution, some bran
ches of the government are more
responsive than others to the public
will, but our government can be con
trolled by the people, from the or
ganic law which we call the constitu
tion to the statute and the court's
decree.
A long step toward the elevation
of labor to its proper position in the
nation's deliberations is to be found
In the establishment of a Department
of Labor, with a cabinet officer at Its
liead. The wage earners deserve this
recognition, and the executive is en
titled to the assistance which such an
official could render him. I regard
the inauguration of this reform as
the opening of a new era In which
those who toll will have a voice in the
deliberations of the President's coun
cil chamber.
The labor organization has been
seriously handicapped by the fact
that it has been and I am not sure
that it has not been done unwitting
ly yoked up with the industrial
combinations known as trusts. The
proneness of trust defenders to use
the labor organizations as an excuse
for combinations In restraint of
trade has aroused the suspicion that
they have been classed together for
the purpose of shielding the combin
ations of capital. As the result of
eighteen years of anti-trust legisla
tion, only one man has been given a
penal sentence for violating the fed
eral law on this subject, and that
man was a member of a labor or
ganization rather than a trust mag
nate. The laboring man is justified
in his demand that a distinction shall
1)0 drawn between the labor organ
ization and the industrial monopoly.
The trust and the labor organiza
tion cannot be described in the same
language. The trust magnates have
used their power to amass swollen
fortunes, while no one will say that
the labor organization has as yet se
cured for its members more than
their share of the profits arising
from their work. But there are fun
damental differences. The trust is a
cumuinuuun 01 uoiiura; uiu muur oi-,whch llls services entitle him.
ganization is an association of hu
man beings. In a trust a few men j b.11nt fiverv nnfi ahoilld ,lae thQ bi.
of his Investigations and present to
others tho Ideal which he Is trying
to realize in his work. His pen must
be free that he may scatter seed
thoughts to the uttermost parts of
the earth and leave to posterity a
record of his work. He finds In gov
ernment the cheapest, as well aB the
surest, protection of this liberty to be
to think, to speak, to act.
And what constitutes tho pursuit
of happiness? Man must have home
and friends family and society. -He
must have food or he will starve. He
must have clothing and shelter; he
must have books, he must have In
struments with which to work. He
must provide during the period of
strength for the years when ago dulls
his energies and benumbs his hands.
He may have ambition, he may have
willingness to work and an environ
ment that spurs him on; but the gov
ernment may encourage or It may
discourage his efforts. Government
may bid him hope or leave him to
despair.
When I visited the valley of Jor
dan I learned that it is fertile and
productive, and yet, Instead of being
cultivated like the valley of tho Nile,
vast stretches of territory lie untitl
ed. Why? I was told that under
the reign of the Sultan the toiler is
not protected .in the enjoyment of
the fruits of his toil. If the farmer
plants and tends his crop, the rov
ing Bedouins will sweep down from
the hills at harvest time and carry
away the fruits, of his industry.
If the government does not assure
to the individual the enjoyment Of
the result of his effort, there is no
stimulus to industry.
We have the best government on
earth. It gives the largest liberty,
the greatest hope and the most en
couragement to the citizens, and yet,
even In this country, it is always ne
cessary to be on the watch to keep
the instrumentalities of government
from being turned to private gain.
One of the great problems df to
day is to secure an equitable dis
tribution of the proceeds of to!'. The
material wealth of this country is
largely a joint product; in factoites
few people work alone, and on ihe
farm a certain amount of coopoia
tion Is necessary. Where men work
together, the army organization ap
plies to some degree; that is, some
direct, others are directed. The dif
ficulty has been to divide tho results
fairly between the captains of Indus
try and the privates in the ranks
As the dividing is done largely by the
captains, it is not unnatural that they
should magnify their part and ap
propriate too large a share; neither
is it unnatural that there should be
complaint on the part of the toilers
who think that their recompense is
insufficient.
The labor question, therefore, as It
presents itself at this time, is chiefly
a question of distribution, and the
legislation asked for is legislation
which will secure to each that to
As
legislation is secured through the
ALUAiyCE IN
FROM PORTLAND
attempt to control the product of
others; in a labor organization, the
members unite for tho protection of
that which is their own, namely,
thejr own labor, which, being neces
sary to their existence, is a part of
them. The trust deals with dead
matter; tho labor organization deals
with life and with Intellectual and
moral forces. No impartial student
of the subject will deny the right of
tho laboring man to exemption from
tho operation of tho existing anti
trust law.
If tho labor organization needs to
be regulated by law, let it bo regulat
ed by a law which deals with man ns
man, and not by a law that was aim
ed to prevent tho cornet ing of a
commodity or tho forestalling of tho
market.
I shall not speak of tho eight-hour
day, or of tho employer's liability
act, because both of tho leading par
ties have ondorsed these reforms;
the only question to bo considered Is:
which party can best bo trusted to
secure these reforms? I need hard
ly assuro you that I am heartily in
favor of both reforms.
According to the Declaration of In
dependence, governments nro insti
tuted among mon to secijro to thorn
tho enjoyment of their liiallenablo
rights. Among theso inalionnblo
rights, there aro specifically enumer
ated life, liberty and tho pursuit of
happiness. Tho second and third,
howover, nro really parts of tho first,
for life means nothing to tho Indivi
dual If it Is confined to meio nnlimtl
existence, Man is distinguished
from tho brute In that tho latter
merely eats nnd sleeps and dies,
whllo man is ondowed by tho Creator
-with infinite possibilities. Liberty is
necessary for tho realization of man's
possibilities. His conscionco must bo
loft free thnt ho may Ax for hlnisolf
thofelatlon botweon himself and ltla (
God. His mind must bo loft freo
that ho may devise and plan for hlm
Rojf, for his family and for his fol
lows. His sjti'rch must bo free tl'tt
ho tuny give to the world tho voaulta
lot to obtain the legislation neces
sary. The democratic platform pre
sents tho ideal toward which the
Democratic party is striving, namely,
justice in tho distribution of rewards.
The Democtatlc party proclaims that
each individual should receive from
society a reward for his toll common
sutate with his contribution to the
welfare of society, and unless some
other party can do the work better,
tho Democratic party ought to have
the suppott of all, whether they be
long to the wage-earning class or oc
cupy positions In which they direct
the efforts of others. If an officer in
the Industrial army were sure that
his child ron and his children's chil
dren would Inherit his position, he
might feel possibly Indifferent as to
those under his command, but the
children of those who, today, work
for wages may employ the children
of those who, in this genet atiott, are
employers. This uncertainty as to
fututo generations, as vcll as our
sense of jtibtlce, should lead us to
make the government as nearly per
fect as possible, for a good govern
ment Is tho best legn6y that a parent
can loavo to his child. Riches may
take tho wings of tho morning and
lly away, but government is perma
nent, and wo cannot servo posterity
better than by conttlbuting to tho
perfection of tho government, that
each child born Into tho world may
feol that it tins here an opportunity
I for tho most complete development,
and a chnnco to secure, through sor
vlce, tho largest possible happiness
and honor.

The Alliance arrived in early this
morning from Portland after one of
the most pleasant trips of tho season.
The sea was calm and no wind to
toss the boat on the way down to
give the travelers a touch of seasick
ness. Owing to the tide, tho Alliance
will sail about 9 o'clock in the morn
