NG Always the Leading Clothier BURYSUSPICIOriS I'JORK TOGETHER Walter Thomas Mills Sug gests Way for Workers in Many Lines to Benefit. The fourth of the series of lectures delivered by Dr. Walter Thomas Mills vrlll be given at the Masonic temple tonight. Thus far the lectures have proved most Interesting and have been attended by large audiences. Mr. Mil's tslked last night on "Public Power and the Organlied Workers." He said In part: "In determining what one shall do for himself It is altogether his own af fair unless his proposal comes In con flict with the interests or wishes of others. When this happens and dis putes arise final authority must some where be established by which' the con troversy cart be determined. The power by which such controversies are deter mined is the public power, and the agencies through which this power Is1 exercised are called political. As the public power arises in connection with collective Interests it has to do only with collective affairs. "The first collective Interests known among men were their interests as hunters, then as herdsmen and after wards as warriors. The warriors were not verv long in making slaves of each other and the slave lost his right to be heard even -with regard to the things which might be said to be his own per-, sonal affairs. Public authority came to be understood to have reference only to disputes between the roasters. The workers were slaves and as such were voiceless. The workers who-J-were not slaves were known as freemen and the word free was attached to the anoient occupations. The Free Masons of our day being a modern survival of the an cient labor organisation of free men. "When men were slaves only such or ganizations as could be effected In secret and- only such programs as could be un dertaken by force were within their reach. When finally they were- given their liberty because the abundance of the laborers had made It more profit able to hire men than to own them, still if the workers organised, being denied any voice In. the exercise of the public power, their organizations were necessarily secret and their instrument of attack became the refusal to work. I "It is only by the exercise of the pub-1 Hr power that the collective Interests of the people can be protected from op pression and this public power can be exercised in this country only by a ma jority vote of the citizens. Fortunately, the useful people are overwhelmingly in the majority. All that is necessary to organise such a memorial is for the workers of" the factory and the farm t.o put away their mutual suspicions about eacn other and to discover mat what ever will bring real deliverance to elthei win pring aeuverance to ootn. HALS EY STREET "In other words. It looks queer to a man up a tree." Councilman Vaughn. With this peculiarly saplenj conclu sion was the debate on the resolution for Hassam pavement on Halsey street. closed yesterday afternoon by the coun ell. The petition of the Hassam com nanv was denied, and the' Warren Con struction company had proved Itself victor In the first clash or tne two com- ? antes. It is supposed that a petition or bitullthic pavement will be filed at another meeting of the council, and that itwill be granted. Councilman Vaughn's remarks were made directly te Mr. uenars, wno naa fought the petition of the Haftsam com pany, on the ground that the Oregon Real Estate company was the chief pe- ttoner. and that a great majority 0t property owners want bitullthic. Councilman Vaughn thought that the majority of the property owners should have the choice, and he remarked point ed lv . that' Councilman Cellars had not offered serious objection to this ruling on occasions wnen tne w arren company had been affected. The report of the street committee recommending that the Hassalo street petition of the Hassam company be granted was adopted, the resolution to this effect being seconded by Council man Cellars. The Warren company made no fight for this contract.
