ExoEssEs OF STRIKERS.

The number and extent of the strikes, now in progress or in contemplation, has hecome a matter of grave import ance. not only on account of the em- barrassments and losses in the indus trial and business world, but on ac- count of the arrogance and intoler- ance displayed by the strikers and their leaders at all times. It is mat ter of serious concern that so many of those who belong to labor unions should evince such ignorance or con tempt for law, and should so utterly ignore the rights of all but themselves. President Shaffer, who certainly ought to be a well-informed man, re- gently stated to the union men that it was their duty to disregard or vio- late any and all contracts previously made with employers, if those con- tracts interfered with their obligations to their unions.
 This advice, as all must see, is positive and direct admonition to those belonging to labor unions that they are under no obligation to keep their word with their employers. and that con- tracts are worthless if the officers Of the union say they shall be violated. It is virtually telling laboring men that their word and their promise is not binding on them when some union official tells them to violate it. It is horrible and dangerous doctrine.
 In a recent issue of The Sacramento Bee we find a communication from one Harry Rogers, signing himself FIX District Organizer of American Fed eration of Labor" in California, from which we make this one extract:
 The Federal statutes should contain a | provision prohibiting more than eight | hours in any one day, at any ealing, e&- cept where absolutely necessary and then overtime should be exacted and paid.
 Now. if the Federal government
 should send soldiers to protect govern
 ment property against eXcesses com
 mitted by strikers every labor lodge
 in the country would ring with denun-
 citations of governmental encroach- l ments on the liberty of individuals and l the IlSHto Oi SAe AlhS CldhSoes' 1Vt' here is a suggestion infinitely more
 dangerous to liberty and more subver-
 sive of private rights than would be
 the suppression of a strike by Federal troops. It is an invitation to the gov ernment to interfere directly with labor and laboring men throughout the coun-
 try. and to say what shall be a days
 work in every shop. factory, mill ol

QUADRENNIAL LEGISLATIVE
 SESSIONS.

Some days ago Hon. Leslie Brooks of Mobile. who is a member of the Legislative Committee in the Consti- tutional Convention. brought in a mil nority report against the provision of the majority for quadrennial sessions of future Legislatures. This report is reproduced on this page.
 Mir. Brookss argument is a very strong one. There is no need for The Advertiser to try to add eo it or to re- capitulate it. He handles the subject from every conceivable standpoint. He demonstrates absolutely the lack of wisdom of the Quadrennial innovat ation And yet the Convention has adopted the ouadrennial session provision.
 This Convention has been exceeding ly conservative in all other respects. It is inconsistent. therefore. for it to be so radical in this matter, to take a step that no other Southern State has dared. that only two other States in the whole Union have had the temer- ity to try. There are no conditions in this State to warrant such a sweeping change. The people have never thought of it. nor the press demanded 1t.
 The Convention has frequently changed provisions that second thought convinced it were unwise or inexpe- dient. This is certainly a case where its second judgment ought to come into play. The quadrennial session pro- vision should be wiped out and the bi- ennial session. so long in use here and so generally found necessary all over the country. should be substituted.
 If the Convention does not make the change. the probabilities are that pub lie opinion will be most unfavorably af- fected. The impression is sure to go out that the great corporations domi- mated the Convention and dictated this radical innovation. This would be a most unfortunate conclusion.
 By all means the Convention should reconsider this step and be as conserv- ative in this thing as in so many oth- CTS.

The Chattanooga Times has this to say on the subject of regulating grants nf fra nchiSas h. rounici na lifies.

The Chattanooga Times has this to say on the subject of regulating grants of franchises by municipalities:
 An ordinance is pending before the Ala bama Constitutional Convention provid- ing for a limit to the granting of fran chises to quasi-public corporations by city and town authorities No question pend importance to municipalities than this. The passage of stringent law forbidding free franchises and placing a fixed time limit on all granted rights would remove a most prolific source of municipal wrong doing. The policy of vesting in a few men the authority to give away in per petuity the public rights of the people Is one of the most dangerous and indefens- ible wrongs that infiicts our body polite. Municipal scandals are constantly bred wherever this policy is not limited. and it should be source of satisfaction to the people of Alabama that the ordinance above referred to is likely to be embodied in the organic law of the State.
 Unfortunately the prospect of a wholesome provision along this line was delusive. The progressive Com mittee on Municipalities reported a section for this purpose. but it was re- jected by the conservative Convention. A considerable number of the members do not live in cities, have not realized the great need of reform in this mat ter and were indifferent about it. An other portion of the Convention was probably too susceptible to those cor poration influences. which opposed any reform of the kind. 10 iS said that a tremendous corporate pressure was brought to bear from all over the coun- try against the proposition of the Committee.
 At any rate the provision was killed, as was a large part of the Municipal Committee's report. Thus the chance for the better government of cities and towns in Alabama in this respect was cut off. Growing public opiRfOn may lead to legislative enactments in the future. but public opinion on the subject of selling franchises seems to be largely undeveloped in this State.

SHE DIDN'T GET IT.

The Chicago Chronicle of last Tues day, has some pungent criticisms on the action of our Convention in bestow- ing limited franchise on women. The Chronicle could not know that while It's editorial was being read by it's pat rons. the Convention was reversing it. self and was taking back the little it had grudgingly given the women on the previous day This ignorance of what would be done does not take away the force of The Chronicles arguments, one of which is that the Convention in- tended by this ordinance "to practically double the white vote on bond issues," because. as it reasons, the men of Ala oama would transfer enough property to wives. daughters and sisters to quaI- ify them to vote.
 Whether those criticisms and predic- tions are just and fair or not, the fol- lowing will be of interest:
 | It is not apparent how the intelligence | and self-consistcncy of the State can stop at the bond issues. If women having tax l able realty shall vote at bond elections | why shall they not vote at all elections | involving taxation?
 If women with property are capable of | voting on questions of taxation ought | they not to be trusted to vote on questions | not involving taxation?
 The test has arrived for the manhood of Alabama. Either they must give wo- man an entire ballot or they must confess their hypocrisy in giving her a nominal ani fractional ballot.
 These certainly are pertinent ques- tions. Naturally there will always be difference of opinion as to the jus tice or propriety of female suffrage, but if woman who owns a certain amount of property may vote on the question of issuing bonds. why should she not vote on any and every ques- tion involving taxation or affecting her property? And if she is competent to exercise the right of suffrage on ques- tions involving taxation, why not on all other questions? However. it is useless to argue the matter, so far as the Constitutional Convention is con- | cerned.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1901-08-17

The Tuscaloosa Times, whose edi- tress is one of the most talented wo- men connected with the Alabama press has this somewhat remarkable para graph:
 It is doubtful if nine women out of ter sign a mortgage willingly. The wife ewears that she does, of course, but that makes no difference. It is an unwritter law that wife must accede to her hus- bands desire to mortgage away his prop erty or be disgraced. A woman who re- fuses is he talk of the town. So she swears that she signs her name willingly and without coercion. And when a home stead Is mortgaged. nine women out of ten perjure themselves.
 We do not know. of course, If The Times is correct in its severe arraign- ment of the wives of Alabama. but we do know that the editress is liable tc find herself defendant in some kind of lawsuit. Better watch putI

,ther industry in any portion of the

other industry in any portion of the Union.
 The Federal government has the same right to say that twelve hours shall be days work. It has an equal right to say what wages shall be paid to mechanics and all other laboring men, and. in short, if Rogers Is right. the government at Washington may claim and exercise as complete control over labor as it does over the Army and Navy. The idea is repugnant to every theory of individual rights and per- sonal liberty.
 Last Spring there was an arbitration conference held in Chicago during which one of the visiting delegates used this language:
 What do you do when a thug or burglar enters your house at night? You shoot him. So 1 say. if your employer won't give you the wages you want or the hours you want, treat him as you do burglar shoot him.
 It may. and doubtless will be, con- unions do not generally endorse such anarchical doctrine as this, and we should be glad to believe that they do not. but what does the union raean when it puts out armed pickets to prevent non-union men taking the place of strikers? What are pickets for? Is it not the duty of a military picket to halt all who attempt to pass, and If they refuse to stop. to shoot them? Do not these union pickets by their &C., tions virtually say to non-union men: If you endeavor to pass by me to work in the place I have abandoned I will kill your" Certainly, that is the only inference to be drawn from thelr position. and in some cases the threats have been carried out.
 We. have said nothing in this article about the right of laboring men to form unions. or of the right of men to quit work. as individuals or unions. but have been discussing the dangerous, unwise and illegal phases of strikes, and cannot better conclude the article than with this extract from a letter from W. H. Rice to The Evanston Ill.) Press:
 I am one of those who believe in the doctrine that when men quit work, indi- vidually or collectively, they have no more claims upon their former employer than an entire stranger. It is about time there was a clearer vision in this matter of trades unions, and that people were made to feel and know that these organ- izations have not one iota more right on their side than the employer has on his, and that any interference by trades unions In the conduct of any business whether to their liking or not-is criminal and subject to the same conditions meted out to any other hold-up men
The Montgomery advertiser., 1901-08-17

Dakota, Texas, West Virginia, Wyom- ing and Utah-twenty-si States, in all of which is retained the system of biennial or of annual sessions. If these States, situated in every part of the Union, existing under such diverse conditions and representing every variety of interests, have found nc reason for embarking upon an untried and doubtful policy, why should Ala bama rather not wait and profit by the experience of other States that may in augurate a change, instead of assum- ing risk of nature SO serious.
 Still another reason assigned for the change is that biennial sessions will give too early an opportunity for re- pealing laws that have not been in operation long enough to commend them to popular approval. But that would be a curious statute that would require more than two years to dis close it's effect on the body polite while on the other hand a four years interval would allow a vicious statute full opportunity to do its harmful work, and the people during that time would be hepless unless the Governor should as an act of grace, through an extraordinary session give them an op- portunity which ought of right to be theirs through the recurrence of the time honored biennial session. What if a Republican administration should come into power and indulge in reac- tionary legislation of disturbing and destructive nature-would the Repub- lican Governor be apt to ignore his party relations and vouchsafe relief through a proclamation for an ex- triordinary session?
 The undersigned. therefore. recom- mends the adoption of said ordinance No. 429. providing for the repeal of Section of the ordinance reported by the Committee on Legislative Depart ment fixing the sessions of the legis- lature quadrennially."
 If said Section shall be repealed he recommends the adption of the follow ing ordinance
 The Legislature shall meet biennially, at the capitol in the Senate chamber and in the hall of the House of Rep resentatives (except in cases of the destruction of the capitol. or epidemics. when the Governor may convene them at such place in the State as he may deem best) on the day specified in this Constitution. or on such other day as may be prescribed by law: and shall not remain in session longer than sixty days at the first session held under this Constitution. nor longer than fifty days at any subsequent session.

LETTERS TO
 THE EDITOR.
< < ass ass < < < :a < < < < < < CORPORATION CHARTERS.
An Important Change by the Con.
 vention That is Dangerous.

Editor The Advertisers:
 Our present Constitution forbids a corporation engaging in any business not expressly allowed in its charter. The Committee on Corporations, 1 un- derstand, proposes to amend by strik- ing out the word charter and inserting the word "declaration.' Charter from the Latin carta, i. e., writing) includes all written evidence of corporate power. The word declara- tion is used only in describing corpora tions made under the general law. A railroad created by act of the Legisla- ture has no -..4 laration," and if this amendment + 5es, the Constitution will not forbid it engaging in any busi- ness that may be pleasing OF seem- | ingly profitable; may establish a col lege, a department store, or baseball club.
 That can hardly be the mind of the | Committee.
 Better let it remain as the fathers" wrote it, or if you must amend, put in a provision punishing the corporation that usurps powers not conferred by law. Lawyer.
