"lIE ACTION of the conven-
ton of United Mine Work
IL ers of District No. in per-
alizing with suspension To-
calls which enter upon a strike before
it has been sanctioned by the district
executive committee is judicious and
timely step, which ought to exert Il
quieting and beneficial influence upon
industry in these parts. 1t is essential
to the life of the miners union that an
end should be put to capricious local
strikes. many of which are upon the
iIimsiest preteXts. many precipitated
by mischievous boys. who think strikes
are funny. Until the union can de-
monstrate it's ability to hold in proper
discipline these turbulent clements,
whom it's coming has encouraged into
greater activity than ever before, it
can hardly expect to secure from the
employing interests that thorough
confidence which it seeks and which
will be necessary foundation for per-
manent peace and prosperity in the
anthracite industry.
We fear that the good effect of the
action in discouragcmc of petty local
strikes will be somewhat weakened by
the decision to enforce more stringent
ly the working card rule. The right OF
a labor organization to station men at
the entrance Of a place of employment
and demand that all who shall seek
to enter must produce a card setting
forth that they are members of the
union and in good standing has never
been upheld by law and cannot be up
held until Il radical change is made in
the constitution of the United States.
Our laws say that any man who be-
haves himself may seek work where-
ever he chooses and accept it when-
ever offered, if he is satisfied with the
terms. The employer may contract
with union to supply him with the
labor he needs, and in that case II
would be within the unions right to
sec that the men employed We're un-
der its control, since it could not 9TH
erwise fulfll its responsibility.
But as we understand the situation
in the anthracite industry the employ
ers have never contracted with tho
United Mine Workers to take control
of the labor in their mines That Or
ganization has come into being and
into power of its own accord. It's de-
termination to station men at the en-
trance into working for the purpose
of eNacting an inspection of cards l.,
not in pursuance of any agreement or
contract, hut is an action WHOLLY arbi-
trary on its part With as much legal
right might ii place II picket around
The postoiiCc TO decide who should and
who should not enter To get mail. No
doubt the union officials are correct
in arguing that for the preservation ur
the union it is necessary that laborers
receiving the benefits of it's achieve
ments should be compelled to pay
their proportion of dues. but it ought
to be possible to adjust that mattcr
without disregard of the commonest
rights of property
We wish Well to the ninc workers OF
our valley. 1t is for that reason that
we Offer these remarks.

The Presidents Position.

Z TARIouS interpretations Of the
presidents action in appoint-
ing William McCoach To sue
ceed Penrose McClain as col
lector Of internal revenue for the Phila-
lelphia district are appearing in print.
One version credits the president with
having said that he refused to recap
point Mr. McClaip because the latter
last fall bolted his party ticket in order
10 support the insurgent movement in
Philadelphia. This is not true. The
president declined to re-appoint Nc
Claim because the two senators from
Pennsylvania objected 10 McClain's re-
appointment and recommended for the
place a man equally as good. The presi-
dent has not become a partisan in fac

One of the erroneous Impressions
which have been generated In the
course of the discussion over the ques-
ton of reciprocity for cuba is that
those who favor concessions to enable
the Cubans to set UP their new republic

are hostile to the domestic beet sugar
industry. Nothing could be further
from the truth Every intelligent
American desires the prosperous devel-
opment of this promising home indus
try. But 1t does not follow that this
development will be impaired by reci-
procal trade relations with Cuba. There
is market enough in this country for all
of Cuba's sugar and all OF the beet pro-
duct beside. And even then Uncle

Gently pardOned by Acting Gov
ernor Stoddard (instead Of Gov

BulLetin), is again in trouble.
Qualey was convicted Of falsifying
the books Of a mining company, Of
which he was manager, and sen

serve six months in the penitenti
ary. Qualey took an appeal and
gave bond for his appearance. The

Two weeks ago the Bulletin pub
Iished an article full Of sit is re-
ported" and asserted that Mr..
Qualey had skipped to Mexico.
The article was carefully written
in order to avoid libel, but gives
out that Qualey left for Mexico
with the intention of taking up his
residence there. The GUARDIAN
said nothing in reply, believing
that as soon as it learned the truth
it would correct the injustice done
Mr.. Qualey, but as it failed to do
it and as other papers are copying
the Bulletins false one it becomes
the GUARDIANS duty to the public
to publish the facts.
When Mr., Qualey operated his
mines from the county seat, spend
ing all his money there scarcely an
issue of the Bultptjn appeared with
out words Of praise for him, but
after his headquarters were moved
to Stafford, it had no use for him
and has published just such articles
as the one of two weeks ago ever
since.
The true facts of the case in
which the Bulletin misrepresented

Mr.. Qualey drew two drafts

morning he left here. He went tc

On Thursday he returned to SAT

CLIFTON NEWS,
From the Copper Era

From the Copper Ere
The school census as taken this
year gives Clifton q population of
1900. The census law does not
permit the taking of the census of
incorporated towns. The popula
tion of such places are merged
with those Of the district, and the
census enumerator is not allowed
to give out the figures. 1t is
pretty safe to say that Clifton at
the present time has population
of between $500 and 1000.
Charles Mccoy, a formerly of
Clifton, dropped dead in Ell Paso
last week from heart failure. He
was consumptive, and had pre-
dicted his death on the day it oc-
Cured. His wife died at the Man
lila hotel in this place some weeks
ago under most distressing circum-
stances. Her son, by former
husband, bright lad of ten years,
is now with his father in FL Paso.
