The further deportations which
have taken place in the Southwest,
this time in Gallup. New Mexico are
unquestionably the result of the ex
ample set with perfect impunity by
the copper companies in Bisbee.
Today, it is the correct thing to
deport men to some other section
of the earth if they ask lor such
wages as will meet the higher costs
of living.
That these lawless outrages are
permitted to go on without any at
tempt to prevent them is not calcu
lated to give the workers an over
shadowing idea of the freedom
which they here posses.
At the same time, those who ob
serve this condition and simply
emit a sigh of satis.action that at.
last tlie right wa: has been dis
covered to handle labor that will
not accept such conditions as are
imposed upon it. might as well realize
■drst as last that they are playing
with tire. The workers are patient
but there is a limit t > patience, and
that lin'd is being approached now
with greater speed than ever before
ni the h tory of the relations im
♦ w< eii e.atdoyers and employed
Tne great desire of the immense
majorit;. of people, workers among
l be lest, is to live in quiet and if
coitdttlons arc at all an cptable ami
tolerable to accept them ami tole
rate them: to make the best ot the
sit tat toil.
In the meantime there are certain
tor«es in human society proceeding
wbl'ii simply prevent conditions
Iron maintaining an unchanging
attitude; these are economic forces
which affect those who own and
therefore employ and those
who do not own and who
therefore produce profits for an
other as the price and privilege of
their employment. Tito varying
prices, the change In the costs ot
living, due in a measure to an in
tensified demand, an artifit ial con
trol of the supply and the decreas
ing value of gold and its purchasing
power due to over production and
lessened production costs, all ot
these things pro' ;.',
mg the cause of the •/ //"'s
tin t prevail, prevent the conditions
which were tolerable and acceptable
yesterday luting tolerable and ac
ceptable today. Hence the effort
that the workers arc making to
establish a better relation between
iho costs cf living and the wages
which are being paid. At no time
in the history of the nation have
profits in coal and metal mining
been so extenisve; at no time have
orders been so rushing. And it is
urged that the war needs of the
nation have to be met by tins in
dustry.
But while an effort on the part
of the workers to increase the price
of th( ir commodity, labor power, is
bitterly resented by those who buy
it. the superior control which own
erhip of the country’s resources
gives proprietors enables them to
claim enormous profits without any
attempt at justification, or without
establishing any relations between
the production. costs and the com
modity siold.
Profits unlimited for one class,
contentment with conditions belore
the war for the other
js the doctrine that is
preached on every hand. The rea
son of course is because the inter
ests which control the resources
control also the press, and the fact
is that this doctrine of passing it
all to the workers is being rejected.
It is figured today hv Washing
ton that there are now three hund
red capital strikes in the t’nited
States, flow many little differences,
cropping up and quickly settled or
continuing unadjusted tint numeri
cally affecting so few men that it is
unrecorded, one cannot say.
'I'he industrial unrest is critical
enough and to this is being added
the lawless attacks upon the work
ers on every side. assassination,
jailing, deportations and the like
which are all that is needed to
start things going.
True enough the employing classes
may feei themselves well prepared.
Indeed to carry on as they have
been carrying on is symptomatic
of nothing so much as a strong be
lief in their own ability to push
things through with a high hand
and to (rush any effort at reprisal
upon the part of labor.
But tiiat collective frame of mind
of any ( lass in power has always
been the cause of the downfall of
that same class. They are simply
greasing the slide into the turbul
ence of a class war will, iikely as
naught. be fraught with conse
It is as true for society as for
the individual, and tHe trutli for
every one is unquestionable, that as
we sow. so also shall we real). In
deed it is truer for the collectivity.
For death may remove one from
the scene before h“ has been fated
to fate tite dreadful harvestings of
his former actions. But for society
there is no such respite. The deeds
of the lather are settled by them,
their children or their children's
j 'l^pli'en.
What proud knight in tiiw feudal
times, riding rough died over the
peasants who were his serfs, mock
ing their miseries and intensifying
! their poverty by the grasping seiz
ures made to provide fuel for the
j flames of his appetites, his atubi
tions or iiis avarice, ever dreamed
that the red terror of the Revolu
tion would mark the end of that
Haming chapter? There is no one
•o blind as he that will not tee. And
tie- powerful industrial corporations
that have begun to make them
I selves a law unto ihemseves within
I the confines of this republic, must
needs, it they have common pru
I ilence, look to it. These acts are
not finished when the seed of
trouble is sown. When men are
torn from their homes and sent
to die or sufti r across the desert—
j when men are taken from their
rooms and hung by hired assassins,
ihest things dont end there. Their
reaction follows throughout the
| years. They no nave end there,
than the planting of the seed ends
tho ploughing of the field. These
things continue. Society’s acts are
deathless in their consequences as
they are ruthless in their reckoning.
Kven the ancients had observed the
truth of this. The wisest of the
pagans said that the dice of the
Gods were always loaded. The mills,
said another, of the Gods grind
slowly, but they grind to fine tlour.
And in a later day "God’s justice,
tardy though it prove stops not till
it reach delinquency" is the moral
of an English poem. All down the
line of history that the reaping will
he as the sowing is preached In
tongues that are nover still, is writ
ten in words of fire that even thos.
who walk in darkness may read. It
is tlie persistent fact of the chang
ing social condition that retribution
was inevitable. Why. they made ?
Goddess of this strange fact in
Greece: she was the daughter of
Night and was the Distributor,
awarding pains and penalties with
unvarying and Inflexible justice.
And mark well her shining marks
were the proud and insolent those
who hail conceived that for them
selves alone had .happiness and the
joys of life been conceived and their
ends and aims and ambitions and
desires had needs to be ministered
to by those who were of no such
estato.
It is a mistake to imagine be
cause this is all pagan mythology,
it has no connection with the social
facts. That mythology was the del-1
ficatlon of experiences which were
not otherwise to be explained and
| the truth of which is so manifest
| that it cannot he controverted. And
| the experience of a later day histo
ry drives home with painful mono
tony tiie truth of these same e... > i
riences among human kind.
Everything that the employing
classes do today as yesterday, there
will come a tomorrow when they
will have to pay in full. And there
can be no evasion.
