The second and third
ommendatlons rfhe congress immedi
ately acted on; It established the
eight-hour day as the legal basis of
work and wages in train service and
It authorized the appointment of a
commission to observe and report up
on the practical results, deeming
these the measures most immediately
needed; but It Dostnnno.i .i

find lt hard, i believe, to excuse a
failure to act upon these grave mas

of action upon them.
Not only does the Interstate com
meroe commission now find it prac
tically impossible, with Its present
membership and organisation, to per
form its great functions promptly
and thoroughly but it is not unlikely
that It may presently be found ad
visable to add to Its duties still oth

must first be perfected as an admin

The country cannot and chrmM
consent to remain any longer exposed
to proround Industrial disturbances
for lack of additional means of ar

congress can easily and promptly sup
ply. And all will agree that there

This is a program of regulation,

the mere statement of it. with re
gard to one of its items, 4he iacrease
in the efficiency of the interstate
commerce commission, the bouse of
representatives has already acted; its
action needs only the concurrence f
the senate.
I would hesitate to recommend, and
I dare say the cdngress would hesi
tate to act upon the suggestion should
I make it, that any man in any occu
pation should be obliged by law to
continue in an employment when he
desired to leave. To pass a law
which forbade or prevented the indi
vidual workman to leave his work
before receiving the approval of so
ciety In doing s0 would be to adopt
a new principle into onr jurispru
dence which I take it for granted we
are not prepared to introduce. But
the proposal that the operation ot
the railways of the country shall not
be stopped or interrupted by the con
certed action of organized bodies of
men until a public investigation shall
have been instated which shall
make the whole question at issue
plain for the judgment of the opin
ion of the nation Is not to propose
any such principle. It Is based upon
the very different principle that the
concerted action of powerful bodies
of men shall not be permitted to
stop the industrial processes of the
nation, at any rate bt'fore the nation
shall have had an opportunity to ac
quaint itself with the merits of tho
case as between employe and em
ployer, time to form its opinion up
on an impartial statement of the
merits, and opportunity to consider
all practicable means of conciliation
or arbitration. I can see nothing in
that proposition but the justifiable
safeguarding by society of the neces
sary processes of Its very life. There
Is nothing arbitrary or unjust in it
unless it be arbitrarily and unjustly
done. It can and should be done
with a full and scrupulous regard for
the Interests and liberties of all con
cerned as well as for the permanent
interests of society itself.
Three maters of capital import
ance await the action of the senate
which have already been acted upon
by the house of representatives: The
bill which seeks to extend greater
freedom of combination to those en
gaged in promoting the foreign com
merce of the country than Is now
thought by some to be legal under
the terms of the laws against monop
oly; the bill amending the present
organic law of Porto Rico; and the
bill proposing a more thorough anl
systematic regulation of the expendi.
ture of money in elections, commonly
called the Corrupt Practices Act I
need not labor my advice that these
measures be enacted Into law. Their
urgency lies in ithe manifest circum
stances which render their adoption
at this time not only opportune but
; necessary. Even delay would seri
ously jeopard the Interests of the
country and of the government.
Immediate passage of the bill to
regulate the expenditure of money
in elections may seem to be less ne
cessary than the Immediate enact
ment of the other measures to which
I refer; because at least two years
will elapse before another election In
which federal offices are to be filled
but it would greatly relieve the puW
Hc mind If this Important matter were
dealt with while the circumstances

whether they could be created upon
an adequate scale under our present

undoubted law for it which will give
freedom without permitting unregu

now, because the opportunity Is here
and may escape us if we hesitate or
ielay.
The argument for the proposed
amendments of the organic law of
Porto Rico is brief and conclusive.
The present laws governing the island
and regulating the rights and privil
eges of its people are not just. Wo
have created expectations of extend
ed privilege which we have not satis
fied. There Is uneasiness among the
people of the island ajl even a sus
picious doubt with regard to our in
tentions concerning them which the
adoption of the pending measure
would happily remove. We do not

at once.
