There is sense in the strong recon-
mendation of the mine leaders that
the compromise offered by the opera
tors be accepted. 1t is not all that
the men claimed. perhaps not all that
they are in equity entitled to, but it
is considerable advance on the old
wages and will better condition them
as to their families and also place
them where the contention of wages
in the future may be more effective.
1t is wiser and better to carry on the
agitation for increased wages while at
work than while out on strike.
