When a human being is chained (iron or legal) to his job he is a slave, and not |a free man, It is inconceivable that a court (in Kansas or elsewhere) can long deny to human beings human rights. Fully as wrong is this same court in its latest decision. It is in direct conflict with the law of the land as laid down by the United States supreme court; it forgets that Chief Justice John Marshall years ago defined property rights }and placed them upon a high pedestal. Does the Kansas court imagine that it can long con- fiscate private property, which is exactly what it seeks to do when it attempts to compel an employer to pay wages to employes he can give no employment? The court will find by even a casual perusal of supreme court decisions that it is as illegal to confiscate private property as it is to deny human rights. Indeed, some justices have stressed the property rights rather oftener than human rights. Nor is the legal angle the only one the Kansas court should consider. It must know that wages are not paid by capital; that they are paid by the public—the ultimate consumer. Any payment of wages for idleness increases the cost of production, the cost of living, if all employers are under the same law. If Kansas employers alone are thus penalized the effect will be to drive capital out of that state. It will hobble whatever of business is left. Business is business. It cannot be a breadline, nor an almshouse, and continue a profit-making business. Having tried to enslave the employe the Kansas court In both instances it reveals itself poorly grounded in business sense and legal lore. An Old Letter A sage is a wise, profound and learned man. Who remembers the sage of Monticello? That man was Thomas Jefferson, framer of the Declaration of Independence and once president of the United State Nearly a hundred years ago Jefferson “took his pen in hand” at the request of a relative and indicted a missive to a namesake, Thomas Jefferson Smith. Sometimes it is known as “the rules of life,” this is what Jefferson wrote “This letter will, to you, be as one from the dead. The writer wil! be In his grave before you can weigh its counselan Your affectionate and excellent father has requested that I would address you something which might possibly have a favorable influence on the course of your Few words will be necessary, with good dispont tion on your part. Adore God. Reverence and cherish your parenta Love your neighbor as yourself. Be just. Re true. Murmur not at the ways of Providence.
