THE RAMBLER.

l noticed a rambling, discon.
nected, labored article in last
weeks Fairview Review by the
Rambler. | am well and per-
sonally acquainted with Mrs.
Rambler; in fact we used to at
tend the same country school.
l remember as if it was but
yesterday when she was a little
tow-headed girl standing in front
of the teachers we'll worn desk,
her bare feet looking somewhat
like the back of a warty toad
while she would make frantic but
futile efforts to spell biscuit and
in an absent-minded way screw
her off big toe in knot hole in
the floor.
In the vacations Miss Rambler
would vibrate between the berry
patch and the tobacco patch.
How well l remember the many
evenings l have assisted her to
gather the green tobacco worm
from the plants, she clad in a
simple cotton dress made in one
piece and 1 in a pair of cotton
AIDES with one bed-tick "gallus. I"
When we would worm and
sucker three rows we would sit
down in a shady fence corner and
rest and she would make goo-goo
eyes at me.
Then in the fall when the to-
bacco was sold she had enough
money to buy a pair of store
shoes and a pair of brass ear
rings. Clad in these she GER
tainly cut swell figure and had
three sweethearts at one time.
She finally married one of those
boys, good easy hard working
say-nothing kind of a fellow who
had always made a living by
slapping old Beck on the side
with a plow line. This is the
same poor hen-pecked man that
Mrs. Rambler says is of no ac-
count and won't make her a de-
cent support, after he has given
her the best years of his life and
toiled early and late that she
might have the good things of
life. She now raises a howl and
enters a vigorous kick if she has
to patch his pants that he has no
doubt worn out sliding around
covering barns to earn an extra
dollar or two for her to spend.
She also objects to nursing her
own children. Who ever heard
of such a thing? Whose place is
it to take care of the kids if not
the woman's? 1t is a time
honored custom and was insti-
tuted by Mother Eve when she
first sang lullabies to little Cain
and rose silently in the middle of
the night to administer paregoric
when he had eaten too many
green apples.
Mrs. Rambler, you are entirely
off your nest and out of the box.
The best thing you can do is to
attend strictly to your household
duties and let your poor husband
chew tobacco in peace and sleep
late of morning if he wants to,
for when he's gone you willnever
get another. Jimmie.

Girl browns at Owensboro.

Owensboro, KY, July 15--Miss
Clara Barnes, the l7-year old daugh-

drowned off the Knights of Pythias'
excursion boat. AS the excursion
lists were leaving the boat Miss
Barnes fell into the river at the head
of the wharf boat. The body drifted

The Steel Strike.

The temerity displayed by
President Shaffer in ordering o
general strike of steel and tir
workers in the face of the con
cessions offered by tho manu-,
facturers may be justified by the
conditions as he sees them. but
1T does not have that appearance
to others. He has staked the ex-
lstence of his organization upon
a demand for the exclusive en-
ployment Of union labor when
the union scale of wages and
hours and permission to organize
the uon-union workmen had been
granted. The Amalgamated AS
sociation has not single griev-
ance to allege, either as to treat
ment, hours of labor or wages,
but it plants itself squarely on
the demand that a man must be
one of its members before he can
receive employment from the
steel syndicate. Mr.. Shaffer may
be right in his contention that it
is life or death struggle for his
organization anyhow and that the
fight should be made at once, but
he has certainly burned his
bridges behind him. There is no
chance to continue the organizing
OF the steel workers at the Car
negie and other non-union plants,
and the fight must be fought with
such members and such resources
as the association now possesses.
On the face of it, the two forces
are not equally matched. The
Carnegie plants are the largest
and best equipped of all the great
works, and if Mr.. Frick could
keep them open and running at
the time of the Homestead strike
when the Amalgamated Associa-
tion was so strong it ought to be
possible to keep up production
now. With the various Carnegie
1nills and furnaces as a nucleus
and the number of other non
union plants owned by the Uni
ted States Steel Corporation, it
can make shift for a long time
even if all the union works must
be closed. To win the strike the
shutdown of production would
have to be complete, or nearly
so, and this is not conceivable.
Another consideration that
counts against the strike is that
the Amalgamated Association
must play a waiting game while
the manufacturers can carry on
an offensive campaign. They can
make offers to the strikers or can
hire men at other plants and in
this way weaken the ranks of the
Amalgamated Association. Pro-
vision has probably already been
made for this to some extent.
The shutting down of so many
plants in Great Britain and in
Germany ought to release a large
number of skilled workers who
may accept the higher wages and
permanent employment offered
in America. The contract labor
law would prevent any organized
movement of this sort, but men
could come over without being
engaged in numbers large enough
to count in the long run.
The strike, it must be admit
ted, is a serious one from every
point of view. 1t is begun at a
time of the greatest business
activity when there will be heavy
