The Boston Advertiser figures 1t out that labor will
be the only loser by the steel workers strike the
steel trust is in position to get by squeezing the
consumer. The Advertiser reasons as follows;
"t is the say that every day during the
tnuance OF the iron and steel workers strike capital losing
many hundreds of thousands Of dollars and labor is losing
hundreds of thousands People and papers say
IT, because II what used be 1T
In this il is true in any where gains
fight is fatally unequal What the strikers while the
mills shut down is from them forever Whether
they win lose their fight their lost wages will
back TO them. But it is with the trust
Just much iron and steel product will he demanded
by the consuming public strike strike The stock
hand will be sold for higher The difference price
will nearly quite make for the loss of profits while the
mills closed When they reopen production will be
pushed little faster until the demand supplied and an
other surplus is accumulated Consumers win have lost
something WorknGmen who nave been idle will have
much The steel trust will have lost nothing"
All Of which might be quoted in support of the con
tenton that in every contest between organized capital
and organized labor the general public is necessarily
much interested third party and that therefore APP
peal to said third party which is likely suffer great
injury than either of the contestants should pre-,
cede every strike in order to enlist the irresistible
force Of public opinion the side which shall appear
to be in the right and the Inauguration of
Titles, the cost of which must be borne the by
class innocent of responsibility for the bringing about

enced by Mrs Bracket in rendering his decision in
the famous Minnie Healy mining case, The way he

wealth at their command blacken the reputation Of
