seventee own a quarter billion be

TTHE POOR RAILROADS.
A'he probable strike of railroad
j/armen because they are not includ
ed in the Adamson bill is now in
dicated in recent dispatches. When
will they learn to leave the poor
railroads alone so that the physi
cians of Wall Street can .tap their
financial dropsy. But it is comfort
ing to know that the Interstate
Commerce Commission is now con
sidering the propriety of increasing
the freight rates. Let justice be
done thought the heavens fall—and
the water collapse from the over
capitalized transportation industry.
THE MAY YORK STRIKK.
i- Vat 1 - ofribo will 1
be successful or not depends upon j
whether or not there will be the ,
same solidarity of labor needed to;
enforce success. It is about high time
that the methods pursued in these j
strikes were subjected to some sort
of consideration.
It has been tiie drawback of a
certain school of economic fatalism
that the workers have, many ot
them, obtained the idea that social
acts are spontaneous and involun- j
tary; that they pass beyond the
realm of individual control and are
inevitable.
There is no reason why, unless
men themselves so will it, social acts
should be bevond individual control.
There is no reason why one single
step taken by any body of men for
a common purpose and for mutual
benefit should be involuntary in the
remotest sense. There is no reason
why they should not be carefully
considered, deliberate and planful.
Consequently the tactics that re
sult in some strikes heing failures
should occasion profounder con
sideration and should set the work
ers busy reasoning out better plans
and better tactics. Certainly there
should be some way of overcoming
the consequences that lack of solid
arity brings upon all organized
movements.
JOHN I)'S UNION.
If there is any publication in the
United States does not know that
John D. Rockefeller Junior, the
worthy son of a worthy sire, estab
lished a union of his own in the
southern Colorado coal fields, it is
because the editors of that publica
tion failed to read the really beauti
ful literature that 26 Broadway cir
culated upon the subject.
And this was a union. It was the
meanss whereby forever and a day,
throughout the ages, th^ feud be
tween labor and capital was buried
and employers and employees united
for their mutual benefit. It was in
fact the inception of the Golden
Age in industiy, and harmony
sweet as the music of the stars pre
vailed. At least some such idea was
Inferred from the really beautiful
literature on the subejct circulated
by 26 Broadway.
And now comes a startling condi
tion of things. These miners who
are the petted and the pampered in
the coal industry are still dissatis
fied. The beautiful union of master
and man described in the really
beautiful literature emanating from
26 Broadway does not seem to work.
First of all the miners in Sopris and
Piedmont, then the miners in Stark
ville, Berwind, Tabasco and Teller
berg began organizing in the United
Mine Workers of America, just as
If the Rockefeller Union did not
exist.
It is a sad world and a bad world
indeed. Here is John D. Rocke
feller who ate with muckers, bor
rowed the foreman’s pajamas to
sleep in a miner's bed, kissed the
teamster's baby and danced with the
coal digger's wife, ruthlessly and
pitilessly spurned by the miners for
their own labor organization. And
the Colorado Fuel and Iron Co. sup
plies free wooden legs to its muti
lated victim's! Was there ever such
stark ingratitude!
THE SUPKRMEX.
When Hughes accepted the nomi
nation of the republican party as
candidate for President of the
United States, an outcry went up
against bringing the Supreme Bench
into politics. Somehow and some
way the idea was to be ineulcatedi
that the Supreme Court of the
United States was and must be
above the sordid strife of politics
and it would be infinitely degrading
if the supreme bench was to be used
for political preferment later on.
The gentlemen who devised this
concept of things would have one
; believe that the Supreme Court was
to be an earthly paradise for human
perfection, where the superman in
law ultimately reached, after being
rifl of the fleshly temptations ot
class and caste, politics and perso
nal interest.
How in the world such a concep
tion should he believed of it is not
so difficult to understand, notwith
standing the fact that invariably
conservative, reliable corporation
lawyers received the appointments.
It was to the interest of privilege
that the public should believe that
that body in whose hands was left
the interpretation of the constitu
tion, and which constituted a legal
oligarchy in the republic, was emas
culated of all political and economic
interests. After they had donned
the robe of the Supreme Bench they
were clad in a garment of judicial
purity which rendered the wearers
immune from any such thing as
class or political decisions.
But those who were most resolute
in circulating this notion were
under no illusion themselves. There
fore they saw to it that railroad
attorneys, corporation counsel and
such of the profession as could be
relied upon to uphold privilege
would receive the justiceships.
And when President Wilson ap
pointed the radical attorney Asso
ciate Justice Brandeis, there went
up a wailing and gnashing of teeth
to the four quarters of the republic
from the privileged classes.
I
Why there should be the lament
that Justice Hughes left the
Supreme Bench for the stormy
arena of politics and why there
should be the lament that Brandeis
was appointed to succeed Lamar
are two facts which will explain
one another. The truth is that the
Judges are the same as the rest oi
us. There is no more divinity about
the law than the lawmakers, ana -
no more about the law • interpreters
than either one or the other. They «
are human and they are subject as a
judges and as lawmakers to the for- S
ces of their environment which ere- J
ates within their minds a conception (
of men and things making for class |
ideas and class conceptions.
The economic structure of society |
is the basis of all other contempo- I
rary institutions, and men and their f
ideas are such as their economic j
environment makes them. The judges
are subject to this rule as well as
the rest of us, and because they are,
it affects their ideas just as much
as his environment affects the ideas
of the Man with the Hoe.

DOUBLE EXPORTS
NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—The ex
ports of August 1916 are just ex
actly double those of August J915,
being over two hundred and seventj
two millions. As being one fo the
causes of higher prices, economists
are pointing to the greatly increased
quantity of food stuffs which are be
ing shipped out of the country.
However the economists are be
ing taken to task by the papers foi
an unjustified conclusion, declaring
that some of the articles, of which
the production this year has been
greater than ever and which have so
far shown little increase in exporta
tion, are even higher than others.
