A nonunion worker employed in the
Wcilsville plant was seriously beaten
by party of strikers early Monday
morning. He had been to Wander
grift to spend Sunday and was re-
turning to work. He was struck with
brick and then given a hard punch
ing He promised his assailants that
he would not return to work.
Two meetings of the Switchmen's
Union of North America were h Id
here Sunday to discuss the strike.
F. T. Hawley, grand master, was
present and spoke at both meetings.
1t was decided that strike in
sympathy with the steel workers
could not be ordered, but the hearth
est moral and financial support was
rendered to the strikers. Grand
Master Hawley suggested that the
American Federation of Labor call to-
gether all the labor leaders of the
country for conference on the strike
and expressed the opinion that some
plan for favorably ending the strike
would be forthcoming.
Newspapers spoil shnGer's Plans.
President Shaffer was at strike
headquarters Monday, He said that
the situation was unchanged, When
asked about Duquesne, he said; IF
there had been any plan to do any
thing at Duquesne, the newspapers
have spoiled it,"
1t could not be told whether the
Amalgamated president was serious
or not in his statement. Secretary
Williams discounted the gains of the
steel corporation at the Painter mill
with statement that while the
company had its machinery running
it did not have the men necessary to
successful operation.
Mayor Black, of McKeesport, was
not at his office Monday and it is said
that he has gone east with the idea
of securing justice from certain
newspapers as to the labor situation
in that city. Nothing about his
movements or plans can be ascer-
tanned here. The Demmler tin plate
workers want to run Mayor Black for
congress.

Exciting Fight at MOnessen.

There was an exciting fight at
Monessen Monday. Large crowds
filled the street and the police were
ordered to clear them. A strike
sympathizer, named T. Mcmahon, re-
fused to move on and when the police
tried to force him resisted. There
was lively but brief fight ending in
the arrest of Mcmahon. The strik-
ers did not expect the company to
bring men to the plant and stand
about staring at the columns of
smoke ascending from the stacks.

Attempt to Resume work FATS

Joliet, H., Aug. 20.--The joint con-
ference of the Amalgamated lodges
adjourned shortly before one o'clock.
There were no important develop
ments as the result of the meeting.
The four lodges will meet again at

The attempt to resume work at the
Pressed Steel Car company's plant,
under the ultimatum posted last week
that unless the strikers returned

closed indefinitely, was not a success.
Less than 100 out of 500 men out re-
ported for work. These ere put on
old work and nothing on new work
was attempted. superintendent All

strikers off Tuesday, and if the men
still refused to return the mill would

Threatening Letter to Militia.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug 9o,-Dispatches
from Somerset, Pa. where the Second
brigade of the national guard of Penn
sylvania is in camp, report that num-
Der of anonymous letters have been
received by the regimental command
ers containing threats in connection
with possible strike duty by the sol
diers. 4 fair sample is the following:
Dear Sir: In case your command is
called upon to do duty against the steel
strikers. do not forget that there are many
laboring men and union men in your regi-
ments and watch where you stand when
you give the order to fire"
The matter has been placed in the
hands of the United States postal au-
thorities, and an investigation is said
to be in progress.
Nothing could be learned in Pitts
burg, as Post Office Inspector 0'Brien
is out Of the city.

strikers Monday when two more mills
at the Painter plant were put in mo-
ton. They were started Mt seven

Der OF mills in operation in that prop

OF the property, said that he now had
goo men at work and that of the
number about 80 were skilled men.
lie says that within a month the mill
viii be running to its full capacity.

erty is helpless and that the work
being done in 1t is not hurting their
cause. Tn eel managers said that
il would be running before night.
The fires have been started and every
preparation made for actual opera
ton There was some excitement
among the strikers wnen they learned
/ that party of strike breakers had
been spirited into the property. They

vent another surprise They say that

enough TO properly start the mill
and that the. are still in control Of
thl situation.

the good it has done me. Pe-ru-na is

A. A. MADISON.
Pe-ru-nS attained great popularity
among the officers Of the army as well as

a great many letters were received from

this popular climatic remedy has become

Requiring Capital.

Our legislation has seemed to bs
animated by a spirit of hostility
to all invested capital and to al
enterprises requiring capital. Our
public orators are applauded with
rapturous applause only when at.
tacking corporations and entet-
prising men who might be willing
to risk their capital, together with
their energy, in building up new en-
terprises. And in the courts OF
Justice an adverse verdict can be
relied upon when a corporation is
one of the litigants,
We denounce trusts, corporations
and monopilies. We are hostile TO
the enterprising who have capital
and to the capital which is neces-
sary for the building up of enter
prises; and we call this friendship
TO the great common people. We
do this nominally in the name of
those who live by the sweat of their
face, and claim that it is our love
for the laborer and the humble
which inspires these attacks and
produces this legislation. There
never was a more foolish position,
nor more preposterous defense.
We who live by the sweat OF our
face must nave profitable and pros
porous capital invested in the com
munities in which we live-invested
In profitable and prosperous enter
prises. There can be no wage un-
less there is employment. There
can be no employ unless there
IS labor to be done. There can be
no labor to be done unless capital is
invested in profitable enterprises.
Every successful factory in
which anything is proftably pro
luc4d is an advantage to the com
nunity in which it is constructed;
md that community can well be
LIBERAL to it; relieve it of onerous |
,axation; protect its property by |
he administration OF justice in the
courts of law; see to it that it has
fair living chance. There is no
eason why Kentucky should not
,e the leader of all interior States.
t may be possible that we cannot
ompete with those States which
ie upon the seacoast, or have the
akeshore within their boundaries.
But Kentucky ought to oe fully
quail in population, in wealth and
n enterprise to any of the interior
states. She needs more liberal
