" - -' X, This Is above all true In connection vwlth-th employment or, cniw iaoor, , Tn Pennsylvania von have made a be- . ginning, but' only a beginning, in troor legislation and administration on thla subject: the Jaw most ir nec essary be strengthened,- and it most be rigorously enforced. The national government can do bat" little in -the matter of -child labor, though I ear nestly, hope that that little will , be permitted to be aone oy . congress. The sreat bulk of the work, however, must be left to the Stats Legislatures and If onr State Legislatures would act aa drastically, and yet as wisely ' on this subject of child labor aa Penn sylvania has acted within the pres ent year a -regards the; subjects I have enumerated above,. the - gain would be literally Incalculable; and ' one of the most vital needs of modern American life Would at last be ade quately met. fttt-ni-.-.-t-. 1 . A THEORY OF ACTION So much (or the State.-. Now for the nation; and here I can not do better than base my theory of govern mental ' action upon the words and deeds of one of Pennsylvania's great est sons. Justice James Wilson. Wil son's career haa been alngularly over looked for many years, but I believe that more and more it is now being adequately appreciated; and X con gratulate your State upon the fact that Wilson's body is to - be taken - away from where it now rests and brought back to lie, as it should, In Pennsylva nia solL , He wss a signer of the Declaration of Independence. He was one of tbe men who- saw that the TtavnlnMnn. In which h had served aa 'a soldier, would be utterly fruitless un less it was 'followed by a olose and permanent union of the States; and in the Constitutional Convention, and In securing the adoption of -the Constl 'tution and expounding what it meant, he rendered services - even greater than he rendered as a member of tha Constitutional Congress, which de clared our Independence: .for it was (h ibuMi rt tha male arm anil Vira. servers of the Union which Justified our independence.- - i - -.- s- He believed ' in tha people with ths faith of Abraham Lincoln;, and coupled with his faith tn the people he had what- most ot the men- who In Ms generation believed In the people did not have; that Is, the courage to recognise the fact that faith In ths people amounted to nothing unless ths representatives of the people, assem bled together in the national govern ment were given -full and complete power to work on behalf of the peo ple. He developed even before Mar hall the doctrine (absolutely, essen tial not merely to the efficiency but to the existence of this nation) 'that an inherent power rested In the na tion, outside of the. enumerated pow ers conferred upon It by the Confu tation, lr si I cases where the object Involved was beyond the power ot the several States and was a power or dinarily exercised by . eoverlgn na tions. r V.. -rv,- -v, In a remarkable letter In which hs advocated setting forth in early and clear fashion ths powers of tha na tional government, he laid down ths proposition that It should1 be mads clear that there were neither varan cles nor Interferences between the lim its of State and national juris dictions and that 1 both Jurisdictions together 'composed only one uniform and comprehensive system of govern ment and laws; that Is, whenever the States can not 'act, because the heed to be met la not one of merely a single locality, then the national gov ernments representing all the people, should have complete power to act.. It was In the spirit of Wilson that Wash ington, and Washington's lieutenant, Hamilton, acted; and It was In ths same spirit that , Marshall construed the law. " ' .. GREAT QUESTION OB DAT '.! ' It Is only by acting In this spirit that the national Judges, Wlslatorsj snd executives ran give a satisfactory solution of the- great question ot the prexent day the question of provid ing, on behalf t)f ths sovereign people, the means which will enable the peo ple In effective form to assert their sovereignty ovr the Immense torpor stions of the day. .. Certsln Ju'Hrlal rf.-olHlrtnn have done Just what YYft.n fpnred; thev have ss a matter of fact, l'-ft varswle. left blanks between the J uilt of poKKlble (State Jurledlctlon snd Iho limits of sc-tunl national Jurlmllo t ln over the control- of the rrcat biinlnna corporations. It in th narrow conntru Hon of the powers of the national government which in (,ur .''i i.ion ai'V bun proved the chief m -M ns of limiting Ui national power to iut out stiuws, and which la now the chief bulwark of those great moneyed IntereMtt-J which oppose and dread any ultempt to placo thm under etuclent govermnental control. Mmiy IcgiHlatlve actions and many Judicial deelHlons which. I am conttdent time will show to have been erroneous aod a damage to the country, would have been avoided If our leKiultttors and Jurists had approached the matter of enacting and construing, the laws of the land In the spirit or your great Pennsylvania, Justice Wrllson in tho spirit ot Marshall ana or wssmngton. Such decisions put. us w at a great disadvantage in the battle for Indus trial order aa against , the present Industrial chaos. It we Interpret the constitution In narrow instead of broad fashion, if we- forsake the principles of .Washington, Mashall, Wilson, and Hamilton, we as a people will render ourselves impotent to deal with any abuses which may be committed by men who have-accumulated the enor mous fortunes of to-day, and who use these fortunes in still vaster corporate form in business. 'y .' ' The legislative or Judicial acttdna and decisions of which 1 complain, be it remembered, do not reany leave to the States power to deal with corpor ate wealth In business. Actual experi ence has shown that the States are wholly powerless to deal with this sub ject; and any action or decision that deprives the nation of the power to deal with It, simply results in leaving the corporations absolutely free : to work without any effective supervision whatever; and - such ,fi course la fraught with untold danger to the fu ture of our whole system Of govern ment, and, indeed, to our whole civil isation. - - --sv, V HOSTIUTT TO WEALTH' ' ? i' All honest men must abhor and rep robate any effort to excite hostility to men of . wealth as such. We should do all we can t encourage . thrift and business energy, to put a premium upon the ' conduct - of the man who honestly earns- his livelihood, ana mora than his livelihood, i and who honestly Uses the money he has' earn ed. But itMs our clear duty to see In the Interest of the people, that there la adequate supervlslonTand - control over the business use -of the swollen fortunes of to-day, and also wisely to determine the conditions upon which these fortunes are to be trasmltted and the percentage that they shall pay to the government whose . , protecting arm alone enables them to exist. Only the nation can do this work. To rele gate It to tbe State Is a farce, and is simply another way or saying mat u shall not be done at all. ' - - ., - Under a wise and, far-seeing inter pretation of the interstate commerce clause of .the Constitution; I main tain that tha. - national i government should have complete power, to deal with all of this wealth which in any way goea into the commerce between the State and practically all of it that Is 'employed in the great cor porations doe thus go tn.. The na tional legislators should most scrupu lously avoid any demagoglo legisla tion about the business use of this wealth,' and Should realise' that it would be better to have no legisla tion at all than legislation couched either In a vindictive spirit of hatred toward men of wealth or else drawn with the recklessness of impracticable visionaries, i But, on the other hand, it shall and must ultimately be un derstood 'that the United States gov ernment, on behalf of the people of the United States, has and Is to exer-cise-the power ot supervision and con trol, over the business use of this wealth in the Brat place, over all the work pt the common carriers of the nation, -and In the' next place over the work of all the great corpor ations which directly or Indirectly do any inter-State business whatever and thla include almost all ot tha great corporations. ' NATION'S LONG STRIDES. During the last few years the na tional government haa taken very long strides In the direction of exercising and securing adequate control over the great corporations, and it waa under. the leadership or one or the most Hon ored publlo men in our country, one of Pennsylvania's moat eminent sons the present Senator, and then Attor ney-General. -Knox that the new de parture waa begun. - - Events have moved fast during the last Ave year. and It I curious to look back at the extreme bitterness which not merely the spokesmen and representatives of organised wealth, but. many most ex cel I eh t conservative people then felt aa to the action or air. Knox and or tbe administration. - Many of the greatest financiers ot this country were certain ' that Mr. Honx's Northern Securities suit. If won, would plunge us into the worst panic we had ever seen. Then denounc ed aa incitement to anarchy, as an apology for - socialism tha .. ad vocacy of policies that either have- nowt Become law - or - in iair way ot becoming law; and yet these same policies, so far from rep resenting either anarchy or socialism, wor In . mailt the antldntea ta an- "archy, tha antidotes to socialism To exercise a constantly increasing ana constantly mora efficient supervision and control over the great common carriers of the country prevents all necessity--" for seriously" considering such a project as the government own ership of railroads m policy which would be evil in its result from every standpoint. .''! '.' A similar 'extension of tn national power to oversee, and secure correct behavior In, the management ot .all great corporations engaged tn Inter State business will In .similar .fashion render far more stable the present sys tem- by doing away with those grave abuses which are ,oot only evil in incmscivcB uoi ara susv evil ukiiih they furnish an excuse for agitators to Inflame well-meaning . people against all forms of property, and to commit the country to schemes- of wild, would-be remedy ' which would work Infinitely more harm than the disease itself. The government ought not to conduct the businsss or tbe country: but It ought to regulate It so that It shall be conducted in the Interest of the public. ; - v Perhaps the best justification of the course which in the national govern ment we have been pursuing In the past few years, and which- we' Intend steadily and progressively to. pursue in the future, is that it ta condemned with almost equal rancor alike by the reactionaries tns Bourbons on one side, and by the wild apostles ot un rest on the other. ' The reactionary la blttesiy angry-because we have de prived Ahlm of Jhst portion of hla power which he misuses to the Pub llo hurt: the sgltator Is angered for various reasons, Including among th ere the , fact that by remedying the abuses w have deprived him of the fulcrum of real grievance, which alone renders the lever of irrational agitation formldsble. '.,') . We have actually- accomplished much.- 'But we have not accomplished 1L nor anything like all, that w feel must be accomplished. We shall not halt; we shall steadily follow the path we have marked out, executing tha law we have succeeded In putting upon the statute books with absolute Impartiality aa between man and man, and unresting In our sndeavor to strengthen and supplement these ,by further laws which shall enable us In more efficient snd more summary fanhlon to achieve tils enBs we' have In view; .'' During the 1at few years Congress has had to deal with such Vitally im port" nt qu"tlons as providing tot the bullilliig of th Panama canal. Inau gurating the vt system of national Irrigation in the States of the Ureal lalns and th Itocky mountains pro- vl.llng for'' a raolflc cable, snd ' so iSrth. Yet in addition to thexe tasks, some of which are of.Btupendoua Im portance, Congress haa taken giant strldna along tha path of government regulation' and control of. corpora tions the inter-State commerce law has been made effective in radical and far-rachlng fashion, rebates have been stopped, a pure-food law has been panned, proper -supervision of tha meat-packing business provided, and tjie .bureau of corporations entabllnh ede bureau whic h has already done grtjat good, and which can and should be given a-constantly increasing func tional power. . 1 1 ' . " ' The work of legislation has been no more important than the work don by. the Department Tf Justice ta executing the laws, not only against corporations and Individuals who have broken the anti-trust ;or inter-8tate commerce law, but against those who have been engaged in land frauds. Scores of suits, civil and criminal, have been successfully ' undertaken against offenders of all kinds many ot them against the most formidable and wealthy combinations in th land: In some the combinations have been ulssolved. In some .heavy Ones have beehlmposed, m several cases - the chief offender - have been imprlson- V LOOKING TO THE FUTURE. " ' It behooves us Americans to look ahead and plan out the right kind of a civilisation, aa that which we in tend to develop, from these wonderful new conditions of v vast Industrial growth. ' . It must not be, it shall not be, the civilisation of a mere plutoc racy, a 'banking-house. AWall-Street syndicate civilisation; nor yet can there be submission to class hatred, to rancor, brutality, and mot violence, for that would mean the end of all civilisation. - Increased . powers are susceptible of abuse aa well as use; never beore have the opportunities for selfishness been so great, nor the results of eelnshness so appalling; for in communities where everything is organised on a-merely selfish commer cial basis, such selfishness, If un checked, may transform ( tha ; great forces of the new epoch Into powers ot destruction hitherto unequaled. -. We need to check - the forces ot greed, to Insure Just treatment alike of capital and ot labor, and of the general public to prevent any man, rich or poor, from doing or receiving wrong, whether this wrong be one of cunning or of violence, f Much csn be done . by wise legislation and oy resolute enforcement .of the law. But still more must be done by steady training ot the individual cltlxen. In conscience.-and character, until:, he grows to -abhor corruptln. and greed and tyranny and brutality and to prise Justice and fair dealing. ' The men who are to do the work of the new epoch must be trained so as 1 to have a sturdy self-respect, a power of sturdy Insistence on their own rights, and with it a proud and generous-recognition of their 'duties, a -sense -of - honorable- 'obligation to their fellow, which: will bind them, as by band ' ot steel, to refrain In their dally work at home or In their business from doing aught to any man which can not be blazoned under the noonday sun. ' After his speech there and a har ried Inspection of the new capital, th President and other distinguished guests were entertained by Governor Pennypackerat luncheon at tha exr ecutive mansion. . - The President1 left the mansion shortly before t o'clock and was driv en to the union station, where he boarded hla special car for . fork. There he visited . the county (air grounds as th guest of Congressman Lafean, of the York district, and was driven around the race track. The rain fell during the drive and the President's face was bespattered with mud when he left his carriage and mounted a small platform In the cen ter of the grounds from which he made the second speech, which, like the dedication address, was non-po-lltlcal. ' - - ' . The street of Tork over which the party passed were crowded with peo ple and the President was given a continuous ovation.
