Walsh's Quick Response

Senator Walsh responded quickly to
the condemnation of his train robbers
bill by the locomotive engineers. He in
sisted that the engineers had misunder-
stood the bill-that it was not aimed at
them but at train robbers-and he sub
stituted forit bill about which there
can be no misunderstanding.
In offering his substitute the senator
stated his views in respect to the rights
of labor. They are very sound views
No fair-minded workman or laborer can
find fault with them.
In Senator Walsh's opinion labor
has a right to combine for its own
protection. 1t has right to strike for
higher wages or for any other reason. 1t
can even strike without having any rea-
son for dong so. In other words labor is
free to do as it pleases, so long as it does
not interfere with the rights of others
1t has no right, however, to prevent
others from doing the work it refuses to
do, nor has it a right to injure property
because its demands are not complied
with. A man or a number of men have a
right to quit work when they are dissat-
isfed, but when they undertake
to prevent others from taking their
places or from accepting wages they re-
fused, they became law breakers.
The senator having set himself right
with the locomotive engineers, and de-
fined his position in respect to labor's
rights, is free to look forward TO the long
term with the hopefulness that usually
characterizes the man who is in.

Res ponsibility for the Coal stri


The coal mine owners are primarily re
sponsible for the coal strike. They
mined great deal more coal than the
market could absorb and in their efforts
to find a market for their product they
lowered prices below the profit line 3
They were. able to cut down prices
steadily because they imported cheap
labor from Europe The ma iority of the
coal miners are foreigners Hupgarians
and Italians. They submitted to reduc-
tions in wages until their earnings were
hardly sufficient to furnish the neees-
saries of life for themselves and
families, and then they stopped
work. II is a question whether they
acted wisely in doing so. They knew the
operators could not raise wages unless
there was a rise in the price of coal A
better plan would have been to have
worked half-time, and in the meantime
tried to get wages raised.
If the strike continues long enough the
price of coal will advance. 1t is already
| becoming very scarce. When the facto-
ries, steamships and railroads begin to
scramble for it the price will rise rapidly.
But it will not be long before it will fall
again, unless some means are adopted to
prevent overproduction. With such
an abundant supply of labor il
would not take long to overstock the mar
ket. Then would come again the compe-
tition among the operators and prices
would drop. The operators cannot pay
! high wages when the price of coal is so
low that it yields no profit.
The coal operators did not look far
! ahead when they were bringing thousands
I Of Hungarians and Italians to mine coal
at low wages. Could they have foreseen
| the result of such policy they would
| have endured the troubles they were then
I contending with rather than invite other
1 and more serious ones.
/ There are nearly 100000 coal miners
now out of employment on account of the
strike, and they and their families are be-
! ginning to get hungry And there is nc
bread in sight. Unless the strike is de.
] clared off soon these foreign born miners
are going TO be difficult to manage.
! Coal mine owners and operators are in.
sisting upon a duty upon coal. No amount
/ of duty would enable them to get good
prices for their product. As long as over
production continues the price of coal
viii be low, and a low price for coal
means low wages

The coal operators Of Pennsylvania, and
even as far west as Idaho, have recently
taken negro men from the southern states
to their mines TO take the places Of
strikers. And, so far, the operators ap-
pear TO be pleased with their new labor.
Without reference to the condition or
rights Of the miners whose places have
been taken by the blacks, we cannot help
thinking the movement is good one for
the south and should be encouraged. The
south can very well spare to the north
and west considerable proportion of its
black citizens, and the north and west
ought to have them in order to do their
share in the solution of the so-called race
problem If Pennsylvania and Ohio had
each as many blacks as any southern
state 1t would be only a short while be
fore scctionalism, kept alive largely by
conflicting views of the negro question,
would be blotted out With the blacks of
the south scattered all over the country
they would not be political menace to
any part of the country, and would fall in
and vote with the party that came nearest
TO representing their individual ideas. The
several thousand black miners who
have gone TO Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Idaho and, elsewhere in the last
month will be followed by their
wives and children; thus, out of an unfor-
tunate labor war in the north and west,
some good will come TO the south.

The New York women who desire the
right TO vote are making life burden 10
the members of the constitutional conven-
tion, now in session at Albany. There
are 10 of the delegatesJ and it is stated
as fact that each and every one of them
has received bushels of letters, besides
petitions and personal visits. appealing
for the striking Of the word male" from
the new constitution. One delegate is
said to have received an average of 500
letters a day on the subject ever since he
has been at Albany. And that is only
one side of the question. There are al
most if not quite as many
women in New York who
do not want to vote as there are who
do. and the anti-woman suffrage women
have been quite as active in getting up
petitions and writing letters as their
sisters and their cousins and their aunts.
This agitation should be regarded by the
men as a foretaste OF what politics would
be with women given all the political
privileges Of men.

BRECKENRIDGE LOOSES

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Fore-
man Charles r. Cole Of the civil
court announced verdict for
plaintiff, Maudaline Pollard, for
$4,000 damages from Congress-
man w. G. P. Breckenridge for
breaking a contract to marry her,
thus ending the long and exciting
Breckenridge-Pollard breach of
promise suit.
The jury was out an hour and %
minutes. The first ballot was ia F.,
ken on the merits of the case, leav-
ing out the question of the amount
damages. The ballot stood II for
the plaintiff and one for the defen-
dent. Discussion of the financial
punishment followed until a com
promise course was adopted, each
juror writing the amount he con
sidered just on paper and striking
a balance. The amounts were from
81 to $4,000, and $4,000 was the
average. Col. Breckenridge arose
himself and made a motion for a
new trial.
FRANKFORT, KY, April 15.-The
people Of this section appear to
almost unanim )usly endorse the
verdict against Congressman Brec-
kenridge. The concensus of opin-
ion among those who openly ex-
press any opinion, is that the verdict
is a just one, and that it will be
folly for him to appear in this dis
trict as a candidate.
LEXINGTON, KY, April 18.-The
friends of Col, Breckenridge are
preparing to make vigorous fight
for his reelection to congress. II
is claimed that Breckenridge has
notified his Kentucky friends that
he is in the race to stay.

ST.. PAUL, April 16.-The Great
Northern strike at dark tonight
was reported within one division Of
this city and it is probable it will
be here before morning. Since Sat
urday it has extended to Crookston,
on the Fergus Falls division, and
to Breckenridge, on the Breckin-
ridge division. The report received
last hight from the West that the
Northern Pacific would probably
strike out of sympathy cannot be
verified and is generally discredited.
ST.. PAUL, April 16.-Vice Presi-
dent Howard of the American Rail
way union says the strike on the
Great Northern is not to be extend
ed to this end of the line for a day
or two. The strike he considered
a fight on the part of the brother
hoods for existence, for if defeated
they would dominated by the
