destroy confidence 10 array in open hos
tility TO our cause all forces Of society and
TO crystallize public sentiment in opposi-
tion to our movement.
Sympathetic strikes have many adher-
ents, and the efficacy of such methods ap-
peals strongly TO those who. being directly
involved in trouble. do not always recog
nize the effect OF their action upon the pub
lie mind; but the past history of the labor
movement teaches lessons that should not
be forgotten to-day. AS far as my knowl-
edge goes 1 do not know of one solitary
sympathetic strike of any magnitude which
has been successful; on the contrary. the
most conspicuous among the sympathetic
labor struggles have resulted in ignomini-
Gus and crushing defeat, not only for the
branch of industry originally involved, but
also for the divisions participating through
sympathy. In my judgment, the United
Mine Workers should not repeat the mis-
takes which, like milestones. mark the
path trod by the toiling masses in their
never-ceasing struggle for better and nigh
er civilization. This, like all great, pro-
gressive movements, has met with repulses;
but, gathering new strength in adversely,
moves forward and onward again in its
march to ultimate victory. Each defeat
should teach lessons of inestimable value
in framing the lines upon which present
and future battles shall be fought and won.
"If this convention acts wisely, If 1t legis-
Iates judiciously, / fell confident that pub
lie sentiment will be so concentrated
against the arrogant and unreasonable at
titude Of the anthracite coal operators that
they will be forced to yield and to make
settlement with their employees which will
insure living wages and fair conditions of
employment, and establish a basis for
