Industrial Emancipation
In the earli^ages the laborer oc-
cupied the station of a servant or slave,
doing the bidding of the master for
such recompense as his employer might
choose ’to give. We esteem ourselves
of this day and age greatly enlightened
because the working man of the pres-
ent is in a way the master of his dwn
toil—is free to work or not as he a*-'
fit, and has something to say about
what his recompense shall be. If the
wages offered are not satisfactory it is
his privilege to refuse to work. But
even under these conditions the posi-
tion of the wage earner is but little re-
moved from that of slavery.
In these times to still better the wage
workers condition we have organized
labor which presumes to and does dic-
tate the wages the members of the
unions shall receive. Sentimentally
the purpose of the union is right, but
fundamentally it is wrong, in that it is
selfish. The union seeks to protect
only those of the trade that is unionized,
having but little interest in the work-
men engaged in other trades; often not
even of those to which it may be al-
lied, such as the workmen in different
departments of railroading; in the print-
ing industry, and others in which dif*
ferent trades are corelated. The union
further displays lack of consideration,
in that it docs not know or refuses to
take into consideration the earnings
and the ability to pay of the business
by which it is employed. But the
adoption and enforcement ol a wage
scale by the unions is a step in the
right direction, and toward the final
right solution of the labor question.
Our belief and contention is that
the labor or wage question will never
be rightly solved until the whole wage
ha. been end always will be ^ ,f themleIvM wj,h „.
unfair, most generally to the wage
same. The quickest way to put a rail-
road out of commission for efficient
service would be to lay off all the sec-
tion men. The locomotive engineer
speeds the train over the tracks at a
high rate, not because of any particular
skill of his own, but because he knows
the section men have done their work
well and the track is in safe condition.
Carry this into any of the pursuits of
life, industrial or otherwise, and it will
be found that the underlings, the poor-
est paid are the real essentials to the
success of the thing for.-, inch they are
working, without whom the enterprise
would fail most miserably, and yet to
these are paid the least wages. Can
anyone tell why for instance, the presi-
dent of the United States should be
paid a larger salary than a farm hand?
Which of the two is really the most es
sential to the sustenance and upkeep
of the people and the nation? The
president never produces a thing of
usefulness or-necessity, but does stand
at the head of the machinery that ex-
pends the substance of the people with
a lavish hand, and for which the people
do pay receive small reward indeed.
How would we abolish the wage sys-
tem? By abolishing wages entirely;
paying no man any stipulated recom-
pense for any service he might perform.
But we would make labor compulsory
by law, and the man who refused to
work unless he was sick or disabled,
could not obtain the necessities of life.
And what Would be man’s recompense
for the work he was compelled to per-
form? All that the best salaried me n
of today really receive, find more than
the great army of workmen now get or
can- hope to get, which would be. all of
the comforts and necessaries of life
that he can use or consume rightfully.
We wonder what such a condition
they, if themselvea provided with ev-
erything they need and desire, he
envious because all their neighbors
were just as well situated as themselves,
as we know folks are now where only a
few are enjoying opulence? But this
condition of affairs would be most try-
ing on society as it is now kn own for
under a system like this ones rating and
standing in the community and the
country at large would be based upon
his character and moral worth and not
his pocketbook. And herein have we
suggested what would be the greatest
obstacle in the way of the inauguration
of an industrial system such as we
have crudely outlined.

earner, and sometimes to the employer.
The reason the wage system must be
abolished is that no man has ever yet
set or fixed what has been recognized
as a just and fair wage for any work-
man. Outside the unions labor is sfcS
ject to barter and trade like any com-
modity. In the union the worker
must have the scale whether his Vork
is worth it or not, doing injustice both
to the fellow laborers, as well as to the
employer. For it must be that in the
union the better workmen are under-
paid and the poor workmen overpaid.
So the union offers no incentive to
greater efficiency on the part of the
better and more ambitions workmen,
and is therefore discouraging to skilled
labor and its natural evolution will be
the extinction of what is termed skilled
labor.
The suggestion that the wage system
must be abolished before there can be
fairness and equity in the industrial
world may seem to most people as
proposing an impossibility, but we
believe not. To do away with the wage
system would be 'well-nigh a revolution
we admit, but we believe it is possible,
but first it will be necessary for us to
gain a new view point as to labor, and
see it in all its aspects.
The solution to the wage system is
suggested by the work of the unions.
If the workers in one trade by combin-
ing can demand and receive a stipulated
wage for its members, then all laborers
in all classes of effort should more
easily demand the same wage by a uni-
versal union taking in all classes of la-
bor. Why this has not been suggested
or done is because of our narrow and
selfish views. Workmen in one trade
or calling set themselves up as superiors
to others, and claim their services are
more valuable than those in some other
trade, and therefore are entitled to and
must receive better men ln
other employments. A', f this is mere-
ly assumption on their part, for if
called on to prove their contention,
they would be wonderfully lacking in
convincing evidence. The preachment
of the equality of man will never ma-
terialise until all men are put on equal
pay. Now that sounds quite absurd,
doesn't it? But we ask the question,

Come to Palacios
The Texas Epworth League, which
has always held its annual encamp-
ment at Corpus Christi, is now with-
out a meeting place, having last year
sold its property at Corpus. A com-
mittee was appointed to select a site for
future encampments, and the Palacios
Board of Trade waa notified Monday
that this committee would meet at
Austin on the 28th inst., to consider
proposed sites for an encampment
ground for either temporary or perma-
nent use. The Board of Trade has
been very active in striving to interest
the Epworth League people in Palacios
ever since it was known that they were
to leave Corpus.
On receiving information of the
coming meeting of the League Com-
mittee, President Ruthven called a
special meeting of the Board of Trade
for Monday night and which was well
attended and large interest manifested.
The Board at this 'meeting decided to
send a committee of three to Austin to
meet and confer with the Epworth
committee on the 28th, this committee
to consist of President M.M. Wolf, of Pa-
lacios College, representing the Baptist
people who offer the free use of their fine
grounds at Palacios for this years meet-
ing of the Epworth League; pastor B.
A. Myers, of the Methodist church,
representing the local church as well
as all the Methodist people of the
county; and one layman to represent
the city as a whole, but who was not
named at the Monday evening meeting.
President Ruthuen was appointed as
a committee of one to confer with the
Southern Pacific railroad people and
enlist their work and assistance in lo-
cating the League permanently at Pa
lacios. Our understanding is that the
urged to accept the very ginerous offer
of the Baptist people and meet here
this year before definitely deciding on a
permanent location. After this meet-
ing the committee will be asked to con-
sider what Palacios has to offer in the
way of a permanent camp grounds and
appointments.
The situation as it now stands we
believe insures the meeting of the
League at Palacios this year; and we
are more than confident that if they
meet here once, there will be but little
difficulty in getting them permanently
stationed here. And this would mean
an addition to Palacios quite as great
and important as the big B. Y. P. U.
assembly which comes to us every year,
and is the immediate cause and in-
fluence which brings a number of peo-
get this county back after such a long
period of drought, and succeeded in hav-
ing an election called which was held
last Saturday, but the county voted to
stay dry by a majority of two to one.
Evidently the despised bootlegger, who
it is claimed has done a thriving busi-
ness in this territory under local option,
is preferred above the saloon and the
barkeeper by the people of Texarkana.
And come to think of it the bootleg-
ger, though an outlaw, has points in
his favor as compared with the saloon,
and of the two evils the people of
Bowie have wisely chosen the lesser.
Then it is altogether possible that the
traffic of the bootlegger is largely mag-
nified by the saloonatics. Anyway the
barroom boosters are spending money
on local option elections these days and
getting mighty small returns.

missioner.
Mr. J. L. Pybus announces in this
issue of the Beacon as a candidate for
County Commissioner from this Pre-

Man’s Union Primaries April. 15th.
Any word the Beacon might say in
laudation of Mr. Pybus as a citizen or
a man in every way competent to fill
the office would be superfluous, for there
is no one in Palacios who is better
known to the people of the city and
all the surrounding country; and all
who know Mr. Pybus hold him in
highest regard. In coming out for
this office Mr. Pybus announces no
special platform, but has yielded to the
advice and persuasion of many friends
in making the race, and promises only

With a view of removing this uncer-

cotton-seed oiljjpills, asking if they are

pared with th^lharketed production of
forty thousand acres (estimated) last
year, there ia bow in sight as shown by
responses frai.i one-fifth of the mills
in Texas a miiket for the production
of more than Aven hundred-fifty-thous-

worth considering is ten thousand bush-
els, or the nut* from three hundred

The “Dry Spell”
The “dry spell." now assuming the
proportions of a drought in many sec'
tions of the State, is the occasion for
much very natural alarm among farm-
ers, and yet much of its effects could
have been discounted had the farmers
generally followed the example of
those who broke their land early when
they could, preoared it well and plant-
ed it to the grain crops that should
have been put in early- Wherever
that precaution was taken the corn is
up and in most places flourishing-strong
and heartily, and able to withstand the
dry weather for some time to come,
waiting for rain.
Now, ofeourse, in many parts of the
State the long protracted dry weather
hat so hardened the gound that brew-
ing before moisture comes, is practically
impossible, and, in any event, it will be
useless to plant such land, as seed ger-
mination would not follow. The dan-
ger of farmers reverting to cotton in
many of such places, if not imminent
is present. Against such folly the
warning has already been sounded.
Whatever the weather conditions, as
long as the present war condition! con-
tinue the greater will become the
prime necessity for tbe farmer making
his whole living on the farm. The
danger retting on an over crop of cot-
ton has been too often pointed out to
need repetition here. General diversi-
fication, become* with the^ probability
of a late season, the farmer’* moat im-
perative duty, and it should embrace as
many as possible of the food and feed
•tuffs as can be raised. There is yet
time, with ample rein, to plant corn
anywhere in Texas. Then, theie are
the feedstuff*, peanuts and the grain
sorghums, hogs, cattle and poultry.
These are the farmer’s life-aavera—his
money maker*.—State University

Onward March of Prohibition
Texas Prohibitionists surprised many
of their friends by placing Nueces
County in the dry column, at the
election held last Friday, M-rch 10.
The Pros were the aggressors from
the start, and seem to have had the
Antis on the defensive. They inaugu-
rated the campaign by beginning re-
vival services, conducted by professional
revivalists, in Corpus Christi, the
County seat and metropolis, at which
religious sentiment was appealed to
and all of the arts known to adroit pol-
iticians were employed. The City of
Corpus Christi gave a substantial ma-
jority against Prohibition, but the out-
lying precincts, in which were located
such important towns as Bishop and
Robatown, gave large Prohibition ma-
jorities which ovROune the Corpus
Christ! vote, to the County went dry
by more than 200 majority.
