VOLUME 52.....eceecesecees We gebeevruciNO) 18,867 LET UNIONS INCORPORATE. HE lesson of the MeNamaras is that the international organ- | izations of labor should be taken in hand by the law. When a few men can exercise the power that comes from the vol- fection of vast secret funds, it must inevitably lead to evil conae- q™mences. There is no place for excess power in a democracy, no matter how high a claim may be made for the motives behind it. The spectacle of the Imperial Gompers sitting on his Throne at Washington, mocking the courts, issuing edicts and charters, should pease. The laws of the several States provide simple and effective means for organizing any kind of an association. The labor unions should Incorporate, just as other persons combining for mutual benefit must flo, They should recognize the just rights of the community instead of recklessly disregarding them. They should cease to murder, to boycott and to spit upon the law! The rights of any class of men cease when they infringe upon the rights of others. The criminal who wantonly killed twenty- one workers in Los Angeles said he did it for a “principle.” What principle? That labor unions have ended many yrongs and im- proved working @onditions cannot be denied. Nobody wants to deny it. The tyranny of the employer and of the slave-driving superin- tendent or foreman has been curbed. Yet in many instances the unions have replaced this tyranny with a brand of their own which works hardship on the community at large, which ecatablishes class ' Histinctions and contravenes human liberty. Properly incorporated, honestly managed, with full publicity as to the use of co-operative funds, the unions could become a factor of real benefit, setting standards and rendering genuine aid to eco- nomic progress. But the machinery of Gomperism is un-American, It should vanish from the map. — THE LITTLE PEOPLES MOVE ON. . | has not gone well with “the litthe peoples” since Le Gallienne wrote his striking poem urging that “some unregarded corners” of the earth should be left to them. Every year has stricken | from the map eome name hallowed at least by old custom. Last year it was Korea. This year Morocoo’s fate has been sealed, and Tripoli is in process of “Tunisification.” The remainder of the tale? Hawaii has been changed from a native kingdom to an Ameti- | cay territory. Filipino independence has been destroyed in its birth- | hows, The Transvaal Republic and Orange Free State have become | British colonies. Finland has been Russianized. Persia hes been di- | “vided into British and Russian spheres of influence and is menaced with loss of two provinces to the Ozar. Thus are fulfilled the words of Joseph Chamberlain that these are the days of great empires, not of little states. Fulfilment may go further. Perhaps Belgium, the historic Flanders, will yet go to, France, and Holland and Switzerland, once part of the Holy Roman | Empire, be absorbed in the German Empire, its successor. Perhaps | Russia will do to Norway what it has done to the kindred state of | Finland and to Poland. In far isles of the sea, on remote mountain | sides, in inaccessible valleys other Little Peoples may re-tell the story of the Basques in their Pyreneean fastnesses, the Irish in their island outpost, the Welsh in their upland retreats, the Albanians in! tiir hill asylum, the races of the Caucasus in their bat-like abode ‘among the rafters of two continents. | It is vain to deplore the passing of the Little Peoples, and | with them the going of certain genialities, certain ferocities, certain | customs tacy of the childhood of man, and the ages of Wonder o1 Faith.

For yeare the Southerners drilled, recrutted men and collected arms; to be In readiness for the | coming conflict. The North, on the other hand, could not be persuaded that war was at hand. And now, on both sides, fanatics proceeded to hasten the crisis, fanatic of all was an eccentric devotee named John Brown. Some call Brown a holy hero. Some call him a villain. Others say he was merely a crank. (It te not the aith of these articles to take sides in any historical contention nor to do more than relate proven facts.) Brown was the son of a Connecticut man and moved to Ohlo when he was |five years old. He was at various times a tanner, a farmer, @ surveyor, a wool dealer and a shepherd. He did not succeed at anything. He had such a ho! |of the war that he paid yearly fines sooner than sacrifice his consctence b; | serving in the militia. From boyhood John Brown had been the mortal foe of slavery and had ‘spoken and written vehemently against it, He even succeeded in obtaining a | grant of land near Raquette Lake in the Adirondacks (still known as “Brow! | Tract), where he proposed to form a colony of freed slaves. This plan to trans. port Southern negroes to the bitter cold of Adirondack winters is an example | how impractical were some of his ideas. Of Brown's twenty children twelve grew up and became ardent Abolitionists. He and his-#ons were living in Kansas when the border conflicts broke out there. He fought #o valiantly when Ossawatomie was attacked by a strong force of Missouri raiders in August, 186, as to win the nickname of “Old Oena- watome Brown.” This feat made him the hero of the Abolitioniste and him hated throughout the South. H But his next move was one at which even the radical Abolitionists balked. He stems to have planned J incite a servile insurrection, in which the slaves all over the South were to rise against the'r masters and to fight their way to liberty. As a first step in this scheme he and \cighteen of hs followers seized the United States arsenal at Harper's Ferey® on Oct, 16, 1859, Brown expected ‘the slaves would gather around him there by: the thousand to receive arms and ammunition and to begin their glorious fight’ for freedom. But the slaves did nothing of the sort. Instead, Robert E. Lee (who was then a colonel in the United States Army)? marched from Washington with @ company of marines against Brown and is men. After a terrific fight, in which two of his sons were slain and he himeel was wounded, Brown eurrendered to Lee. For seizing United States propertys> Killing United States troops and seeking to incite an uprising he wee found guilty of treason and was hanged. 1 But his influence after death wae a million-fold greater than in Mfe. Abolf- tlonists revered his memory as that of a saint. Armies were nerved to Da:, triotiam and to fresh courage by the war-song “John Brown's Body.” The epark, had been applied to the magasine. Nothing could now stop the resulting explosion, The civi! war could be no longer averted. .
