Abaat the Closed Shay.
A demand for the closed shop Is a denial
of Individual liberty. The unions have
argued that since every man has a right to
get the best returns possible for his labor
they also have a right to combine for the
same purpose. This srgument Is perfectly
vaiid, but the trouble comes when the
unions attempt to Say that. sine men may
combine their efforts to get higher wages,
all men must be made to enter Into the
combination whether they desire to do so or
not. Now the. are a great many men
that do not believe that the unions as at,
present conducted can assist them In get
ting better pay for their work, and these
men have a right to make their own terms
without being physically assaulted or driven
Into want and Idleness. Thousands of good
efflcient men have been forced Into the
ranks of unionism who down In their
hearts rebel against the injustice which
gives the Incompetent and lBsy member of
the union as high a wage as they them
selves receive for perhaps twice the amount
of work. There are ether men who desire
to have steady wurk, and who believe that
strikes are disastrous to the workmen
whether they win or lose, and that the
best nlan which a man can follow in erder
to advance himself In the world Is that of
t Increasing his knowledge and efficiency and
consequently the value of his services. Now,
If men do not believe It is most beneficial
for their personal Interesta to turn over
the management of these Interesta to a few
chronic Idlers and professional agitators.
Known urn warning aejrgaies, men inese
. men should be allowed the privilege Of per
fect ' freedom of, action' la following their
own judgment. It le the business of all
good American citizens to see that these
men are thoroughly protected In' their I
riant of cttlxenstilD. Our national oreanl- .
s&tlon should use its best efforts to devise
r ractlcal measures for the guaranteeing of
his protection. It should by the dissemi
nation of literature and by other means
seek to arouse the public conscience to a
realisation of the enormity of the Crimea
committed against free and Independent
labor.
Cleaed Shops and Socialism.
The American Federation, while In one
breath declaring Itself in Javor of the closed
shop, tn another breath proclaimed lis op-
position to socialism. It showed lUelt to oa
sensitive to the public oonuemnailon ot -clulisin.
Which has been so pronounced dur
ing the lust year. Yet, when you come to
look into the nature of things, rvgatd-
ra ut uiv nwmea vy wmcn mey are tuown. ;
you find that the eioted-ahop principle and '
socialism are practically o ie and the same.4
Ik.th of theut are In opposition to Individual
nuc-ny ana me rig me oi property ana DOtn
sreH to bring about a system of Society in
which men shall be on a level as to com
pensation and shall also be subjected to the
e-bfoitite rule of some strong, Centralised
authority. In fact, there Is but one Important
distinction between trades unionism and
sclallHm and thai distinction is simply a
difference In the methods to be fallnwiul In
bringing about the oblrct which both have !
In common. When the labor convention
turned down socialism with such a display
of virtuous Indignation against the atro- I
clous doctrine It In fact merely turned down i
the kind of socialism which seeks Its ends '
through the ballot bos, but when the fed
eration declared for the closed shdp it en
dorsed a kind of soctullsm that seeks its
ends through physical warfare. I believe
that If I had to make a choice I would
select the peaceful ballot-box brand of so- '
clllm in preference to the slugging and !
murderous brand. If we are to deal with i
un uiuneu-auop principle in any adequate
manner w must meet it through the
agency of a broad national organisation,

Aside' from carrying on a national prop

Of the Union ringleaders, for these ring'
leaders are always hoii from those who
are the most active blatherskites tn the
union. In a word: Cut out the walking
delegate whenever possible. If you must
deal with union labor do so directly. De
cline to discuss mattera .with any shop
committee unless In the presence ot all the
membera of the union. The shop commit
tee cannot consistently object to that If
the committee really Intends to be "on the
square." I say to you, my friends, that
this Is good advice. If you follow It I think
It will make you money. The advice Is the
result of the hard, bitter experience ot
hundreds ot employers.

Next In Importance to the work of genA
rrai propaganna comes mat or Influencing
legislation. The strike bosses have been
wielding altogether too much power over
the state legislatures and congress, and It
Is time we were shutting oft the flood of
socialistic measures that are constantly In
troduced and sometimes passed in our law
making bodies. There should, however, be
no illegitimate means employed In the ef
fort to influence legislation. The employ
ers' association and citizens' alliances stand
for the highest Ideals of cltlsenshlp, and
should be opposed at all time to bribery
and graft. If the business elements are
thoroughly organised, their runmuni.iiv.
in the legislature and congress will sturtyJ

"Another very Valuable benefit to the busi
ness Interests of the country which ' can
be derived from having strong national
organisations Is that of berng able to In
flume the policy of political parties to
the end that the parties keep socialistic
planks out of their platforms and nominate
men ior punno , omce . who do not lean
toward socialism or the nonenforrement of
law when asked to do so by the labor
unions. However, In suggesting that em
plovers organisations should seek to wield
their strength In behalf of good govern
ment and against demagogues and fanatics
In politics, I wish to say that too much
caution cannot be exercised In order to
prevent our movement from becoming the
foot ball of designing; politicians. Political
business men have In the past done as
muoh harm to the general business inter
ests as some of the most blatant agitators
and anarchists In the country. I am In
favor of business In politics, but not poll
tlos in business. Our movement should be
conducted upon a high plane of patriotism,
having In view the. protection and better
ment of the general Interests of the entire
people. Thus, we cannot afford as an or
ganisation to seek special privileges from
government for ourselves, after the man
ner of the labor unions, nor can we permit
ourselves to he made the dupe of men who
seek only the advancement of their own
personal ambition.
T Mold Pnblle Tkoagtit.
I hnva flow In a way given tome hints a
to what a nations! organization can do for
the local associations and for the great
cause In which we are all Interested, w hi:
It is to b granted that experience must be
our guide In developing specific features of
the national organisation which shall fur
nish practical aid to Its component bodies,
yet It must not be fdrgotten that If th na
tional organisation attempted to be nothing
more than a common center of Information
and an instrument to voice In a national
way the common denires and purposes of the.
business forces of the country It would still
b of enormous vslue. Our chief aim must
b to Influence public, thought In connection
with the evils of unionism. Unless w can
produce a healthy public sentiment our
case Is hopeless. All efforts Inspired by
the Idea that force must be met with force,
that the way to defeat the unions Is to
sdnpt and carry out measures of retalia
tion, are not only repugnant to the Chris
tian sentiments which sctuat the majority
of men, but they must also defeat their
own purpose by making industrial strife
more bitter and by tending to drive public
sympathy and support from our common
cause. Whenever we succeed, however, In
Instilling into the minds of the people the
Justice of the cana foe wViL.H mmA
and also a realisation oftbe evil effects oaV

the trouble to make , clear to the publlo
mind our ease agulnst unionism, and when
It Is thoroughly undeistood that we are
only asking fair play the public will give us
Its support. I have faith in the eommoiw

thaage la Fnblle SentlsBeat. '
The National Association of Manufactur
ers has been using all Its available means
for some months In the effort to bring
about correct general views on the labor
question, and It must be acknowledged that
It has succeeded In accomplishing a great
deal. I have been In a poeitinn to note the
Eradual chsnglng of publlo sentiment
rought about by this work. As an II lus
tration, a year ago there were less than a
half docen newspapers over the entire
country which did not sympathise with and
openly advocate most -of the program of
oiganlsed labor. But today there are quite
a number of papers that are doing valiant
work In behalf of law and order and
against the pernicious doctrine for which
organized labor stands. There are but
comparatively few papers today thst. are
radical supporters of the unions. I cannot
help but call to your mind the almost uni
versal support given by the press to the
anthracite strikers who terrorised the min
ing districts of Pennsylvania a year ago.
That strike and It settlement by a gov
ernment arbitration board, Instead of by
the enforcement of law, ere not nearly So
pnpular today as they were Immediately
?fter the strike decision had been rendered,
"he more the people are learning about that
strike the more they are disposed to con
demn It. The report of the arbitration
commission showed that ' the wages the
miners had been receiving compared fa
vorably to the wages received by -men per
forming a flmllar grade of labor In the
other Industries of Pennsylvania, and yet
the commission granted ths miners a 10
1 etui iterance irt wages. These facts
show that the strike had no Justification
to begin with and that It was merely under
taken because the Mitchell organisation be
lieved It had th power to force the oper
ator to give them a wage higher than
that determined by th law of upply and
demand. ,
Who Pay for It All
The M per cent advance which the miners
secured we merely a form of tribute paid
aa th price ot peace. But let me ask who
pays this tribute? Who paid the losses
arising from the shortage of 2S,Ono,ono ton;
of coal In the season's output? Who paid
for the maintenance of the National Guard?
Wh6 suffered by the reason of the non
enforcement of law? It waa the great
masses of the people. Each and every
householder contributed his share ot his
earnings toward the paying of the cost of
this stria in his greatly increased coe.1
bill. Instead of being a great victory for
organised labor I think that the anthracite
coal strike will yet be regarded a one of
Its greatest disaster. Never again will
the American public (rlv it approval of
uch a holdup proposition aa that of th
anthracite ooal strike.
I merely mention this etrlke a an ex
ample of how public opinion may go l-ntrsy
If evil social Influences are not checked by
counter forces. If the business element of
the country had bin organised prior to th
nthraclte strike that uik .would prob
ably not have occurred. I do not be.leve
that today th country would endorse 4h
creation of a government arbitration tri
bunal to settle a similar strike If organ
iced labor had the audacity to attempt a
repetition of that affair. The only reason
thst this Is the case Is because the senti
ment of th country has undergone a de
cided change In the last year and this
change of sentiment I believe Is largely
due to the aroused action of the bulnes
elements In regard to the labor situation.
I do hot mean to say, however, that pub
lic opinion has.chHnged to such an extent
thst there is no further need of forming
organisations and carrying forward the
work of education. We have only secured
a fair start, nothing more.
Situation 1 Grave.
The gauntlet thrown down by the Amer
ican Federation of Labor .In Boston last
month when it demanded of the errtp'oyers
that they recognize the closed shop princK
pie, ought to be sufficient evidence to con
vince every man who has a stake In the
country' welfare that the situation which
confronts us I of -the utmost gravity. It
is a situation which will require the high
est display of patriotism and self-sacrlnce
on the part of all. We have a great du y
before us and we should not falter In Its
performance. Free competitive conditions
must be maintained In this nation at all
hazards, for upon the maintenance of those
conditions depends the Industrial prrg'e-s
of the country. The forces that wou'd
dismantle our factories, destroy our for
eign commerce and send the nation down
ward on the path which leads to general
poverty and despotism passes great
strength and Influence and In order to S"C
reaefully cope with them w must devslop

prestige and power. 1 do not reed to be a

In an Interview with a reporter for The
Qe yesterday afternoon Mr. Parry de
nounced allk th eight-hour law, boycott,
and th union label a ' on-American and
tending to abridge personal liberties. He
said the association contemplated no spe
cific legislation In th several state next
year, but proposed exercising It Influence
to offset favorable action by congress on
the eight-hour bill.
Th association wag not completely or.
gdiilzed, but was "a vary lively baby with
600 local and application for member
ship coming faster than I can attend to
them." The. organisation ot th associa
tion was to be completed February 2$ and t
in Indianapolis, when a general' adjust
ment of th rules and regulation would b
undertaken, but no change In the cardinal
principle would be possible. Th Clay
pool hotel In Indianapolis had been se
cured for the headquarters of the associa
tion and th auditorium with 1,800 seats
arranged.
Career of Farrr.
Mr. Parry was re-elected aa chief
executive of the manufacturer's association
last April In New Orleans and bscam
president of the industrial association in
October, when it was organised In Chicago.
He has been a successful business man,
starting aa a poor farmer boy in Franklyn
county, lad. II la a republican, but ha
nev' entered politic. H was president
of tho Indianapolis Board of Trade, of the
Irtdlanapoll Commercial club, of th
Carriage Builder National association,
and of the Indiana Manufacture' associ
ation, befor being honored with hi present
positions. . '
Mr. Parry worked on th farm until he
was 17. getting a little schooling during
the winter and at horn at nights, fils
first commsrclal life was seen a a clerk
In his uncle' dry gtooda store, receiving
$2$ a month and boarding himself. After
a time In Iowa he went to New Tork, but.

hemenc upon landing at New Orleans, ha
been very peaceful In hla utterance ever

Hay' table early last week. General Reyes
ha no "official Information',' of th alleged
landing of a large body of Colombian
troop near the Panama border. The gen
eral discredits the war talk which has ben
cabled up from the isthmus, and only yes
terday he expressed himself as very em
phatically of the belief that a peaceful so
lution of th Colombian dlSlcuJUe can b
brought about.
A conference between th general and

can readily demonstrate to th national
