real estate agent, has announced for Coun-
ty Commissioner 10 fill one of the two va
cancies that will occur at the expiration
of the terms of present Chairman E. B.

means another fight between the old Con.

in the history of the board. The two com
missioners. whose terms expire this year
are favorable 10 the Consolidated inter-

Brown-Adair faction to gain one of these
places to control the board; hence the

END OF THE COAL STRIKE.

The virtual end OF the anthracite coal miners
strike has been reached in a substantial victory
for the workers. large majority of the oper-
ators have granted the demands Of the miners
convention and work at the collieries controlled
by them is to be resumed on Monday. The adj
justment viii be received by the country at
large with great satisfaction. A strike is a de-
plorable feature Of industrial life. At Its best 1t
means idleness and hardship for laboring men,
loss 70 employers, high prices to consumers, and
q general disturbance TO business Of far reach
ing consequences. Too often 1t means lawless-
ness and violence and an awakening of bitter
class feelings most harmful TO the whole COM
munity.
The anthracite miners will also be congratr-
lated for their own account upon securing bet
ter conditions of labor. There has been much
dispute as 10 the wages they actually earned
and the Justice of the various regulations about
which they complained, tand II is about as hard
for the outsider TO decide upon the merits of
the various points at issue as il was at the be-
ginning Of the trouble. But, nevertheless, there
IS a general and seemingly well founded i'm
preston that the lot of the anthracite miner
is at best a hard one, even if his employer is
fair and generous, owing 10 the natural condi-
tions surrounding the business. 1t is also gen.
orally believed-though that may be more or
less due TO prejudice-that the great coal COM
panies sell their product 10 the consumers at
rates which return them an extremely hand
some profit and that they can afford to give
an Increase 10 their men. Consequently the
granting Of the demands Of the strikers will
please many even among those who do not
approve Of the methods taken by President
Mitchell Of the United Mine Workers TO carry
his point.
In forcing the miners TO disregard their con-
tracts with individual employers for the pur-
pose OF organizing warfare of all mine workers
against all mine owners Mr. Mitchell took a
distinctly immoral position. and one in the long
run likely 10 be injurious TO organized labor
IL labor unions are TO be recognized by en-
ployers, they must assume responsibility and
stand by their word. Capital cannot be ex-
pected 10 bind itself with bargains about wage
scales and arbitration g the agreement is to
be entirely one sided. Yet Mr.. Mitchell in
sisted that because his men had grievances
against some employers they should break faith
with those who had not offended them In any
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1900-10-26

way but with whom they were under the most
solemn agreement TO continue at work and
settle any differences by arbitration. The re-
pudiation by the miners of their arbitration
agreement with Markle has armed every enemy
of organized labor with reasons for refusing to
enter into treaty with it. An agreement to
arbitrate is a mere nuisance IL it binds only
the employer TO submit his business and any
sort of demands made upon 1t in the name or
labor TO outside judgment, while it leaves the
labor union free TO disregard the arrangement
at viii and ruin him incident to warfare
on somebody else Until labor organizations
accept the fact that they have obligations as
we'll as rights. they can hardly expect to have
what they claim to be their rights universally
recognized
While criticisinG severely Mr. Mitchell's blind
ness to right principles and honorable agree
ments in his treatment of individual operators,
it is only fair to recognize the selfrestraint
with which the miners acted and give him
share of the credit for the order which he en-
joined, since he would certainly have been
bla<ned for any rioting resulting from his agi-
tation The miners behaved much better than
there was reason to fear they would. Many Of
them are ignorant and excitable foreigners, I'M
trained TO self-government and reverence for
American law and order. They were poor, and
with their daily wages cut off by the strike,
they and their families felt the pinching Of
want. hungry. angry and ignorant man is
likely TO be dangerous man, and an outbreak
of the marching picketing bands would have
surprised nobody. But, beyond one or two iso-
lated manifestations of disorder, which were
easily quelled, the strikers kept within the
limits set them by the officers of the law. Few
strikers of the same class and subject TO the
how do O00d a record
At the same TIME, the good sense and modera-
ton of the operators in making no attempt to
fill the places of the strikers from outside should
be noted. They had an undoubted right to i'm
port new laborers if they wished, and the State
would have been bound to protect them in so
doing; but such action would have added greatly
to the bitterness of the contest, and would al
most certainly have precipitated widespread
violence. 1t was the part of patriotism not to
push rights TO the limit under such circum
stances.
