“Just so Long as Capital and Labor Stand
and Glare at Each Other—”
By VICE PRESIDENT THOMAS R. MARSHALL
Just so long as capital and labor stand and glare al
each other we may expect everlasting turmoil and a na
tion-wide cataclysm. The congress of the United States
is a kind of doctor that treats symptoms and does not
treat the disease. No legislative remedy that I know of
can be found to produce peace and quietude and good
order—unless the manufacturers see something more in
business than dividends and look upon the employees as
brothers in the republic and not as cogs in the machinery
or as numbers on a pay roll. It is hopeless from their
standpoint; and unless the laboring men have some higher incentive to do
their work than the mere wage which comes from the doing of it; if they
put in their time finding how little they can do and how much more they
can get for the doing of it, it is hopeless from their standpoint.
What the economic life of America needs is not a lawgiver but an
evangelist.
The country needs a rebaptism of peace patriotism such as it had of
war patriotism.
Just now we need a body of citizens who are content to do a day’s
work for a day’s wage; who are willing to pay a day’s wage for a day’s
work; who believe more in the common good than in the larger good.
Since the world began, business and wealth have had no such oppor
tunity for the angel of the Lord to write their names down beside that of
Abou Ben Adhem as they have just now.
The trumpet call of conscience is not only to the meek and lowly, but
to th^ high and mighty, and when dividends and wages are measurably
forgotten in the love of service for our Christian country, if there is any
hope at all, passion, personal preferment, and personal success must all be
put in the background and the capitalists and the laborers must realize
that the consumer is also entitled td admission into the brotherhood and
business must be conducted and work must be done primarily for the love
of promoting a contented and a happy people.

WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACTURED
FURS IN THE NORTHWEST, and all we ask of you, Mr. Shipper, is to give
us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that we pay more
for furs and make quicker returns than you can get anywhere in the country.
We have been in business in Alaska for 36 years and have built up a very
extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all parts of the United States,
Canada, and in a great many European cities. $
By shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaska industry but you are
helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely, as we buy direct from the trapper and
trader and sell direct to the consumer; thus we are able to pay you a better
price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS THE SAME DAY
SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
If so desired, when your shipment amounts to $100 or more, we will wire our
bid, and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense and we will
ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make ue»
a trial shipment; the result will make you a steady shipper.
