PINES SAYS THE STRIKE
Is NOT A FAILURE

NEW YORK, July 25.-District Mas
ter Workman James Pines Of District
Assembly No. rs, knights of Labor
leader in the Brooklyn, street car strike,
issued the following statement to-day:
This strike was forced upon the men by
the president of the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company. 1t will be continued
for the reason that it has the sympathy
of all the labor organizations, not only
in New York, but in the entire country.
The unions in Greater New York have
shown their sympathy and support by
their willingness to contribute to those
who were compelled to sacrlnce tnen-
matters not who the men are who
will man the cars in Brooklyn here
after, they must receive the be benefit
much easier to organize than were those
who have been driven out. In their homes
and alone they viii be SHOWN nov dr; tne ee oeneif
those VINO had sufficient courage TO IN
sist upon their rights.
The injustice of the number of hours
they are compelled to work each day is
so thoroughly advertised that neither the
Governor nor the Mayor can longer sit
idly by and not recognize the justice OF
the mems claim, and the people who own
these railroads must see that if the nod
est request of the men had been granted
it would have been a thousand times less
expensive to the corporation than the
thing they have forced upon themselves.
AS evidence of this | point to the Coney
Island and Brooklyn Railroad, which was
run without interruption through two
strikes. 1 mention this to show that la
boring men are not unreasonable and only
ask for fair treatment. and when fair
treatment is given those giving 1t reap
the reward. I will do always whatever
is in my power to assist the men who
have been courageous enough to sacrifice
themselves for their fellow employees, and
no one can make me believe but that the
fellow employees who have received the
benefits will forever remember those who
made such sacrifices.
The newspapers can claim the strike
to be a failure, but no argument that they
or any one else can use will satisfy me
that this strike has been anything but
a victory for the men as the future Will
prove.
In Justice to Albert Johnson and the
public ] want to say this; Mr. Johnson
was opposed to this strike. He reasoned
with them and pointed out to them why
they could not win and he advised them
to go to the Mayor and told them that
if the Mayor would act he could set
tie the matter in one hour without a
strike. He also said to me that he had
no motive other than a friendly feeling
for the men who helped him to make his
money and 1 am convinced that 1T is the
truth
