.4 HOPEFULL OULTOOK
Mixed with the troubles and
contention that litis been grow
ing between labor and capital,
employes anil employers, are
some movements which give
rise to hope that future methods
may curtail the evils which arise
from wide-spread strikes.
In the matter of the threat
ened Railroad strike President
Wilson has appointed three men
of high standing and character
to serve upon the board of Me
diation, and they are now en-
One of the most striking evi
dences that the government is
really attempting to exercise its
rights for the protection of the
people at large, is the fact that j
Secretary McAdoo of the Treas
ury Department has notified the!
banks in the Southern and West-;
eru parts of the country that he
was ready to deposit with them
150,000, 000 for the express pur-;
pose of moving the crops. Here
tofore, crop moving time has al-,
ways been a serious one with
country bankers, for the farmer
was a large b o r o w e r
and could not repay until crops
were sold. This made it a time
of stress to the entire country. .
By the method proposed this
stress will be obviated. The sec
retary has taken ample precau
tion for the return of all the
money advanced. The money
will be placed in National banks
in such sections as it is believed
necessary. The Ranch.
What is this we read? Secre
tary McAdoo of the United States
gaged in endeavoring to bring telling the newspapers that Wall
street bankers are a lot of "pi
rates" and should be put out of
about an amicable adjustment
of controversies concerning wa
ges, hours of labor and working
conditions on the part of rail
roads in the United States, in
cluding the controversy over in
terchange of rights and seniority
between the Southern Pacific
company and the Order of Rail
way Conductors and the Broth
erhood of railroad Trainmen.
While of late years there has
been more or less effort made to
settle and control strike situa
tions, yet, generally spunking,
very litle was accomplished, and
too often, the effort consisted in
calling out armed force to quell
disturbances, while but little was
done to bring about equity and
justice and very little, if any
thing, was accomplished toward
bringing about better condi
tions between labor and capital.
The knowjedge is becoming
general that employes have
rights which must be respected
as well as those of employers,
and that these rights are equal,
but the interests of the general
public have mostly been kept in
the back-ground heretofore, and
while such has . been the case the
general public has been no less
the loser because of these strikes
on the part of labor unions.
That these efforts of adjust
ment, in the interest of peace,
humane and prosperous con
ditions, may . ultimately suc
ceed is the hope and desire
of every peace and justice-loving
citizen, but notwithstanding
what our hopes may be, nor
with what roseate optimism we
may view the future, the fact re
mains that there are two factions
to deal with, and their grievan
ces are of long standing and have
been nursed and cherished until
it takes but little provocation to
cause angry contentions to spring
up which are easily converted
into lawless acts which often
lead to destruction of property
and of life.
Efforts to adjust these diffi
culties amicably, and keep them
adjusted, should have been un
dertaken more seriously when
these differences began to arise
but conditions have been let run
their course until animosity has
reahced such proportions that
equity will be hard to establish.
Hair Switches made from
combings. Enquire at this office,
business. Is it possilile we have
a President and Secretary who
dare run the treasury depart
ment without asking Wall street?
The world is really moving, and
the best proof of it is that repub
lican papers are not criticising,
but applauding, the action of the
secretary in placing 50,000,000
in Western and Southern banks
to move the crops. The secre
tary went further and said that
Wall street was knocking the
United States bond market. We
have more hopes now than for
years that the people are really
earning that the government is
their own and does not belong
to a lot of four II ushers in New
York City The Ranch.
