4 PRACTICE THAT MUST III
STOPPED.

Judge Ewing. Of Pittsburg, Pa, has
just decided that store order given
by any company to an employee is lille.
gal. The practice Of giving store
orders has hacn carried on extensively
for years ia Western Pennsylvania,
and now that the question has been
settled by the courts miners who have
been compelled to accept these orders
propose entering suit against their
employers for the recovery of their
wages in lawful money So dis
patch states.
THIS practice has prevailed extern
:sivsly not only in Pennsylvania, but
TN all the Western States and Terrific.
ries. Even here, OH Wood River,
there is scarcely mine company that
does not pay the board and store bills
OF its employees, either directly or in
directly. To be sure, the practice is
more or less disguised, such as, for in
stance, giving checks on local mer-
chants; but it amounts to much the
same thing in the end.
The miners of the extreme West
who came to Wood River did not
take very kindly to this practice, at
first; and about two years ago the
TINES voiced their complaints so that
the evil was somewhat mtiguted. But
lit still exists, nevertheless, though to-
less objectionable extent; and if the
decision above referred to stands the
test OF the Supreme Courts, every due
bill, order or check Except for cash)
on store, which has been paid out
to miners from the first settlement of
Wood River, will be declared illegal,
null and just us void as if the same
had not been given; and the recipients
,can sue for, and recover from theil
employers, the full amount of thei,
wages.
While we would not approve of an,
move locking to a recovery of the
amounts already paid out in good
faith in the manner above referred to-
ave must confess that the decision
meets with our unqualified approval
And we hope that the objectionabl,
practice will no longer he INDUCED in
as aside from the legal questions in
~olved, it is exceedingly reprehenslbl.
'in this chat it gives the favored store
keeper ;rA enormous advantage over
'the wcrkmcn, as compared with Other
,storekeaperS, which is but too oite,
taken advantage of. What mine
paid in store orders has not, at som,
time or other, in such stores, bce1
charged more for n lik" quality 6,
