Many Of the advocates OF the gold stan

| A singular condition of affairs ex
lists among the mine owners in North
ern Michigan The officials of the
Mine Workers union have announc-
ed that all union men are to strike on
| the 23rd of this month unless the non
union men are discharged. The pur
pose is not to secure the discharge of
the non-union men but to con pel them
to join the union The workmen are
ayerse to quitting work and say they
were idle too long two years ago and
are fearful the mine owners will shut
down rather than submit to dictation
as to the kind of men they employ.
Some of them say the receipts of the
union are not sufficient to pay the sal
aries of the officials and they want an
increase of membership so that an in
! crease of fees will insure payment of
salaries. The officials deny, this and
say they are compelled to bring all the
workmen into the union because the
American Federation of Labor de
mands it.
These poor miners are to be pitied
ground down by employers when op-
portunity offers, harassed and robbed
by the idle leaders who live from their
industry. They are indeed between
the upper and neither mill stones.

IT is amusing how readily republicans
ascrlbe the debt-paylng being done by
Kansas and Nebraska farmers to the
Dingley law. The means for the payment
of these debts must have been acquired
under the Wilson law. The farmers
should know the lnstrumentallties which
were potent in bringing about this desir
able condition. Good crops, the direct
result OF industry and favorable natural
conditions are the agencies which have
wiped ont the mortgages.
The man whose main reliance is on his
own eXertlOns is sure to sucreed unless
misfortune prevents. Tie farmers of the
west have had their industry diluted 10y

and the appeals to them To help indnct
