Hfu0 the Philadelphia Tines
This phrase. 'ordered out" that We hear 90
often OF late, has Q very despotic, un-American
sound. We are accustomed to hear OF bordering
out" the military but applied to civil concerns
the phrase Is new and strange. Il Is suggestive
OF tyranny.
Formerly workmen who are not satisfied with
their work or their wages agreed together TO ''go
out" Now they are s>ordered out" whether they
are dissatisfied or not. by irresponsible body OF
rulers who are often the only persons directly
interested In q strike.
The rulers OF the Brotherhood OF Telegraphers
made certain demands upon the commercial COM
panies and when these were not acceded to the
operators were ''ordered out" As the strike did
not bring the companies to terms It became neces.
sary TO ''Order outh reinforcementS The railroad
operators have no special grievances to be re-
dressed, but some OF the railroads happen to be
controlled by the same persons who controll the
teeeraphs, and 1t ts supposed that strike OF the
railroad operators, by disturbing travel. would
nave an eject that the commercial operators
strike failed to have. The railroad operators are
accordingly ''Ordered out"
IL IS 10 the credit OF these men that they not
disposed to obey the arbitrary DEGREES of this new
ORDER OF Cyrants. II they have any of the Ameri-
can spirit In them they will tell the comma nders
OF the Brotherhood to mind their own business
eral strike OF all the telegraph operators together
might have accomplished something. But the
brotherhood chose its own time aud method and
failed: and now 1t wants to persuade the other
foxes to cut OF their tails.
There Ia neither reason nor honor nor liberty In
that is only an embodiment OF selnshness Men
who assume to lord it over their fellow men in
any such way are the ones that should be "or-
dered out"
