San Francisco, Cal. Sept 12.-The

explained his condition of utter physical

that he had been overcome by gas while

AMERICA IS AGAINST STRIKES.

1t is too bad that this country is
again watching great strike The
strike, as has been proved by its own
workings time and time again, is not
a success.
Strikes are only ordered and main
tanned by labor organizations. SO
long as the labor organizations do not
include all labor, strikes cannot be
made successful. When organized
labor quits its job, unorSanized labor
can be persuaded TO accept the posi-
ton, and the result is disastrous to the
former. When organized labor at
tempts TO prevent unOrganiZed labor
from working by force the authorities
must step in, and Will step in and will
enforce the law as long as 4 govern
ment exists.
These are established facts, tried
and proved by labor commissions in
Vulnerable. Protection to property
and TO individual is the purpose of
government and when the government
can protect neither property nor in
dividual, it ceases to be Il government
The government is strong today. Riots
and mobS cannot overcome it.
There is one way and only one in this
country TO carry out your idea That
is to submit it to the people. If ma
jority of the whole people agree with
YOU they will indorSe your idea by
electing men who represent and cham
pion that idea. If you do not believe
that a majority should rule, this gov
ernment is not fashioned TO your liking
and you will find that you cannot
change it until you secure a majority
of the people to Your side.
Consequently there is only one thing
for the man who does not believe in
majority rule and has given up all hope
of winning the majority over To his
idea. To do. That is To emigrate or
submit TO the government.
The majority in this country favor
order and not violence They are
against strikes, and strikes, with a ma
jority rule in this country in force,
cannot win. Deb's great strike was an
issue in the last campaign 1t did not

and the ''trenise," or ''trenitz" (the

Just so long as the expectations of
gold keep up, the government, if il
follows its original plan, must borrow
gold to meet the demands for gold
shipment.
There is no indication that the ship
ments will cease and with three Or
four more issues of bonds the comment
and criticism of the people will become
so strong that Secretary Carlisle will
eventually resign. For, in so far as he
can offer no new plan, Carlisle is not
to blame. The government is main
tanning its gold credit abroad and is
maintaining silver and gold on a parity
ut home. SO long as it attempts this,
the export will be in gold and gold
must be borrowed.

is expressed by Henry Clews as fol-
lows:
There can be little question about
the cause of these immense withdraw
ais of capital to Europe. In the main,
it signifies that our foreign creditors
have become distrustful of our ability
to save ourselves from drifting upon
the silver basis. Their fear is not so
much about the possibility of our TAX
ing care of such silver money as we
at present have. 1t is that the silver
faction, which has shown its ability
to force on the country already 500
millions of what are virtually 50-cent
dollars, and that it may still retain
force enough TO yet further increase
those issues Indefinitely; and they say
that we have no satisfactory assur-
anceS to the contrary TO adyance-but

little backing in the present phases of
