That )rovision is an impertinent presumption on the supposed ignorance of the laboring man. Labor already has a perfect right to voluntarily arbitrate its wage or other matters. As a cold bobtailed bluff on the labor question. that provision is equaled only by the old Republican confidence game claiming that a high tariff is necessary on the importation of foreign goods to protect the American workman from the competition of foreign pauper labor. while at tile same time foreign pauper labor ias been imported by the thousands by these same Republican high tariffs to compete with the American workman. There is no difference in importing foreign paupermade goods to compete with the product of American labor and importing foreign pauper labor direct to our shores to make the goods to compete in American markets with goods made by American labor except that of the two evils tile importation of foreign pauper labor is the worst. This bill legalizes millions of dollars of watered stock and is a dangerous and iniquitous measure in many respects. Our Government and laws were established on the principle of commanding what is right and prohlbiting what is wrong. and Congress was intended to be the supreme lawmaking power. butin these latter days of the Republic that power has in a great measure been delegated by.
