SCHOOL PUPILS
J D SCOUTS
AS SOLICITORS
The pupils of the public schools and
Boy Scouts of Cordova will be the so
j licitors for membership to the Roose
velt Memorial Association.
On Monday, October 27, the anni
versary of the birth of Theodore
j Roosevelt, a short program will be
given at the school housfe by the
pupils, and immediately thereafter
the work will begin and continue until
everyone in this community has had
an opportunity to join.
Announcement will be made later
in the week, and all admirers of
clean Americanism are invited to be
present.
The following excerepts are taken
from the writings and addresses of
Theodore Roosevelt:
Capital and Labor
Capitalist and wage-worker alike
should honestly endeavor each to look
at any matter from the other’s stand
point, with a freedom on the one hand
from the contemptible arrogance
which looks down upon the man of
less means, and, on the other, from
the no less contemptible envy, jeal
ousy and rancor which hates another
because he is better off. Each quality
is the supplement of the other, and
in point of baseness there is not the
weight of a finger to choose between
them.
The law is not to be administered
in the interest of the poor man as
such, nor yet in the interest of the
rich man as such, but in the interest
of the law-abiding man. rich or poor.
This is an era of combination. Big
business has come to stay. It can
not be put an end to; and if it could
be put an end to, it would mean that
most widespread disaster to the com
munity. The proper thing to do is to
socialize it, to moralize it, to make it
more an agent for social good and to
do away with everything in it that
tends toward social evil. To do this
there must be a wise governmental
control, a governmental control that
will check the corporation when it is
doing wrong and check the labor union
-...... .i<!mimiiimimii!imiiiiiiiiili!llllllttinilll1fl1!llllllil!!lili[llll!l:!'- f
when it is doing wrong, and hold each .
accountable and responsible for its
deeds and misdeeds, but which shall !
at the same time recognize that the
corporation has its rights just as the
union has its rights, and that each is
to be encouraged as long as it does
well. No great industrial well-being
can come unless big business pros
pers.
The worst foes of America are the
foes to that orderly liberty without
which our republic must speedily per
ish. The reckless labor agitator who
arouses the mob to riot and bloodshed
is in the last analysis the most dan
gerous of the workingman’s enemies.
This man is a real peril; and so is
his sympathizer, the legislator, who
to catch votes denounces the judiciary
and the military because they put
down mobs.
We must rebuke with equal empha
sis the men who can see nothing
wrong in what is done by capitalists
and corporations, and the other men
who can see nothing wrong in what
is done by labor leaders and trades
unions. Moreover, it means that we
must not permit ourselves to be mis
led by bitterness concerning wrong
doing that is past into condoning
wrongdoing of the opposite type in the
present—for this is the road that
leads straight down to that bottom
less pit where the spirits of Robes
pierre and Danton find themselves in
the company of the high-born tyrants
whose bloody tyranny they denounced
and copied.
The true friend of property, the true
conservative, is he who insists that
property shall be the servant and not
the master of the commonwealth; who
insists that the creature of man’s mak
ing shall be the servant and not the
master of the man who made it. The
citizens of the United States must
effectively control the mighty commer
cial forces which they have themselves
called into being.

Are Becoming Famous
There’s a Reason
Two University of Washington girls
started to make candy on a small scale
for an exclusive trade. The demand i §j
for this delicious candy grew so rapidly
that they were forced to enlarge their
factory before they were fairly started.
They are now supplying only one store
in a town. Luckily we secured the ex
clusive agency for Cordova.
