Elsewhere arc given extracts from
several articles by men Of prominence
whose opinions on the boycott have been
asked by the press. In all that has been
said there is nothing more sensible or
more iorClble than the comments by MI
John Jarrett. He Is u thinking mar who
has given the cause Of labor his best care
In Mr.. Jarrett's judgment the boycott, be-
sides being ~barbarOus, will make the solu'
ton of the labor problem more difficult
than ever, and he wisely remarks that a
constant state Of warfare will not bring
peace.
Men who work for wages are by no
means o unit in favor Of the boycott,
Large numbers Of them understand that
the weapon is a two.edged sword. Many
of them have held this view from the
first. Others have come to It as they was
the gross injustice okmuCh Of the boycott
ing, begun without even q good pretext.
They have realized, also, that the inevlta'
BILE result was 10 keep capital out Oh pro-
ductive enterprises and SO cut oil the
market Tor labor. The boycott has been
apood deal Of a nightmare. Its fastpass-
ing away and 1t will 90 to stay. 1t cannot
thrive in this country, for 1t lacks the pub.
lie sentiment to support it.
The public welfare Is not promoted by
resorting to force in business affairs. The
country has gone through a long season
Of depression, aggravated by unnecessary
hardships the outgrowth Of mlsdireCted
efforts on the part Of labor, as labor's
best friends have admitted. The out
look is improving. Every citizen Of the
Republic ought to feel it his duty to as
sist this better impulse. Every citizen Of
Wheeling ought to do what he can to
improve the local conditions, to increase
the demand for labor, to promote the
general welfare. OF course the same
obligation rests on men Of capital. The
duty Of the hour is 10 pull together and
make Wheeling what 1t ought TO be.
