rOLITICTAXS FEAR DIRECT NOM

T-
v
t
HE NEW YORK legislature pro
vided for a trip out west of a
junketing committee authorized
to study the primary nomina-
s tlon laws of Illinois, Wisconsin and
other states. It is an anti-Hughes,
anti-primary law committee, that
seeks not the truth, but any possi-
, ble facts or testimony to discredit a
primary law. That It report would
- he wholly adverse was known when
Z It was appointed; it was appointed
'or.ne express purpose of making
an adverse report, whatever the 1
a, tacts. A member of thla committee.
Assemblyman Robert J. Conklin, has
given out several Interviews, voic
ing extreme opposition to any law
for direct nominations, In advance
of the formal report. What he says
counts for nothing. He is a typical
, machine politician, whose occupa
tion a good primary law would de
" stroy, and the. rest of the committee
are birds of the same feather.
- The Chicago Record-Herald (Re
v publican) says Mr. Conklin has
been gathering misinformation chief
ly, that he is a "spoils bigot" and
that "what he says is grotesquely
false," and that In it there "Is not
even a pale reflection of the truth."
This fellow Conklin told the New
York people that there was "political
anarchy" In the middle west on ac-
count of direct nominations; there
were no more any party organlia
tlons, "big" men were sick of the
law, etc. But the Chicago paper
ays Conklln's story Is trans
parent, shameless fraud"; It was
based solely on the evidence of "dis
gruntled spoilsmen and cheap little
dos get ; and the evidence of strong,
capable truthful witness was en
tirely disregarded; and that "th"
weight of Impartial and Judicious
testimony wm on the side of direct
nominations."
The New York American com
ments sarcastically on Conklln's re
port of "political anarchy and
chao," tn part a follows: "But
why thl wild appeal of the west
ern politician to save the country
from direct nominations? What

MAKING BRUTES OF MEN
A'
COMPLETE victory has been
won by the strikers over the
Pressed Steel Car company at
McKee's Rocks. Five thou
sand worimen are Involved, and they
are to return to work at the rate of
1000 a week. Sixty per cent of
them are foreigners, and Rev. Ly
man E. Davis of Pittsburg in an ar
ticle-In theNew York Independent
says that in Pittsburg and through
out the affected region public senti
ment has been "entirely" with the
strikers. The same writer says
that abuses heaped upon the em
ployes in the works, are too dread
ful to print, and Secretary Morrison
of the American Federation of La
bor declares that peonage in an ex
treme form is In vogue at the plant
In the crisis of the strike, when
the state constabulary, ' troopers
deputy sheriffs and every other form
of authority were holding the strik
ers in subjection, the manager of the
company boastingly refused to sub
mlt the differences to arbitration.
About the same time 300 strike
breakers who had been employed for
few days at the plant, walked out,
declaring that the treatment they
received from the company was in
tolerable. In his article. Rev. Mr
Daris says of the strikers, "these for
eigners, on the cumulative testimony
of many years, have undoubtedly
been wronged in manifold ways by
their employers." He says "these
foreigners, perhaps, are somewhat
under the average intelligence, even
for the countries they represent,
and this fact has invited exploitation
by those who entertain no principles
against such a method." He says
"that while, the officers and man
agers of the company may have been
themselves Innocent of Intentional
tyranny, tyrants have certainly been
abroad among the workmen at
Schoenvllle. The bosses and
other subordinates of the company
have farmed these foreigners to the
farthest limits of personal profits;
even accepting bribes, as has been
averred, for the positions opened In
the plant, while darker Insinuations
and crimes unmentionable are bold
y laid at the door of those who.
whether foreigners or American.
should have been their natural pro
tectors and their enf ailing friends.
and thl writer adds that "they may
be treated often as btutes rather
than men "
And this is the war the Pressed
Steel Car company employs th
tariff to protect "American" labor.
There ought to be a permanent
tariff commission to Investigate such
caws, to ascertain In what way such
concerns are using their tariff con
cession, to learn whether It fa

court said, meant to prevent Sun
day games associated in the popular
mind with gambling and rowdyism,
while baseball "Is looked upon as
entirely devoid of these and like ob
jectionable features." It Is a
healthful, democratic. Innocent and
distinctly American game, the court
says, with an irreproachable past
and a clean and creditable present
reputation. Hence the court pre
sumes that the legislature did not

court took the right practical view
of the matter.

T IS announced from many quar
ters that we are about to pass
into another period of car short
age. The railroads themselves
are full of apprehension and have
placed hurry orders for equipment
at all the factories. In this respect
there is reminder of the former
shortage " when there were not
enough workmen in the shops, not
enough steel and iron available, not
enough wood at - hand and not
enough factories standing to produce
even a fair percentage of the cars
and locomotives for which the rail
roads were clamoring. All this
time, and it covered a period of sev
eral yara, products decayed at sld
Ings, warehouses were bursting with
unmoved merchandise, trade was
stagnated because if deals were
made there could be no certainty of
transit, mills were closed and em
ployes idle because cars were lack
ing, and shippers almost moved
heaven and earth In the effort to
get relief from the disastrous situ
ation. It is a period that, while it
has its phases of prosperity, has fea
tures that commerce and industry
will enter with painful misgivings!
When two, three or four months
are -required for transit of a ship
ment from the east to Portland, or
when but oire car can be obtained
when a dozen or a score are Im
peratively needed, it is a costly If
not a disastrous situation. It Is a
period of which it is to be hoped
that the omens are wrong and that
the country is to be spared the
losses and embarrassments a car
shortage will bring in Its train. Yet
it Is a period that is likely to come
and go at intervals. The evolution
of the country and its strides in
production are far in advance of the
maximum railroad capacity. To fill
this gap between maximum railroad
capacity and maximum traffic,
James J. Hill said in the former
shortage that it would take an
added 75,000 miles of trackage,
colossal requirements in equipment
and construction and that It 1. a
problem that railroads would not be
likely ever to solve. And ho fur
ther said that it is of infinite im
portance to shippers and producers
to develop all the available water
way, as an adjunct to the country's
transportation.
Though we bad a warning In the
former car shortage, the Columbia
and Willamette ar much the same
as they were when product decayed
at siding and warehouse, almost
burst with, th merchandise that
could not get to market. Those
rivers, properly utilised, wbuld save
Oregon, from any threatened car
shortage. The enormous volum of
traffic that could b handled on
them would release many a car for
railroad traffic. Ia time we .hall
all understand what It ' mean, to
dally with th opening of the
river.
