The very finest rheumatism cure that
has yet been found is reported from
Battle Creek, Mich. Jacob Smithson
was so badly afflicted with the all
ment that he had lost the use of one
arm. In order to kill time one day re-
Gently he accompanied a friend on a
fishing trip. The friend had luck, and
Jacob became so much interested in
the sport that he picked up a rod
with his good arm and began fishing.
Presently he had a bite. The rod bent
half double and the line sung through
the water. Jacob became all excite
ment at once, and before he knew how
it happened he had hold of the rod
with his rheumatic arm as well as the
other and was fighting life and death
battle with the fish. After a ten min
utes' struggle he succeeded in landing
a five-pound bass. Since that time he
has not had the slightest rheumatism
and feels as clipper as spring colt in
a clover patch. Physicians state that
the intense mental excitement under
which he labored sent new life forces
through his system and made the cure.
The moral is, of course, If you have
rheumatism, go fishing and hook a
five-pound bass.

THE EVERLASTING RACE PROB
LEM

The New York Sun publishes a let
ter from William P. Calhoun of Green
vile, S. c., in which complaint is made
of the everlasting nagging at the South
by the North and West regarding the
treatment the negro receives from the
Southern people. The letter states
facts which have been set forth many
times by the Morning News, and points
out, just as the Morning News has
pointed out hundred times, that there
is just as much race prejudice in the
North as there is in the South. AS a
matter of fact the negro does not fare
as well at the North as he does at the
South The proof of this is that negroes
do not migrate to the North and West
in great numbers. and most of those
who seek homes in those sections are
glad to get back to the South again.
Is it not a fact that in all of the
Northern cities the doors of trades un-
ions are closed against negroes? 1t is
in only the most mental occupations
that the negro can find employment II.
those cities. A few days ago we called
attention to an occurrence at Evans
vile, Ind, which showed how great the
race prejudice is in that part of the
West. A white girl having a very dark
complexion entered the public school of
that place. At once all of the other
pupils left the school, and when the
teacher called on the parents Of the
In - al AInaSx
children to return to the school, he was
told that the children could not be ex
pected to sit in a school with negro.
1t was not until 1t was shown that
the girl was white that the school re-
sumed its sessions. And there was the
case of negro girl who was admit
ted into the Northwestern University
at Evanston, ILL.,, recently. The adj
ministration of the University had to
get rid of the negro girl to prevent an
exodus of the white students.
The great body of the Northern peo-
pie are awakening to the fact that two
races, one superior to the other, cannot
occupy the same territory on exactly
equal terms in every respect. There
are a few fanatics in the North and
West who will continue to agitate the
negro question. because it is their ma
ture to be contentious. and because
they are never happy except when they
are in opposition to the great body of
their fellow citizens, but there is no
probability of their being able to get
the country to follow their lead.

DECLINE TO RECEDE
MINE OPERATORS MAKE THEIR
POSITION CLEAR.
Say They Cannot Allow Their EN-
ployes to Take Over the Control
of the Collieries-No Wage
Increase Possible.

Philadelphia. Sept. 3.-President George
F. Baer of the Reading Company and
United States Senators Quay and Pen
rose. had a long conference today in the
executive offices of the Reading Company
in this city at which the anthracite coal
miners strike was thoroughly discussed.
At the conclusion of the conference Pres
ident Raer issued a lengthy reply to the
two Senators. Among other things he
said: THE management of business be-
longs to the owners. In the case of coal
companies the law casts the management
and control on the directors and officers
whose responsibility is to their stockhold-
ers, to the State and to the public. The
right of the stakeholder is to have good
management and fair return on his in
vestment. The obligation to the State is
to conduct the business so as to add to
ity to the laws it has established. The
duty to the public. SO far as practicable.
to conduct the business os as TO add to
the common welfare.
The coal operators say that they can
not mine coal because the miners make
demands which render 1t impossible to
mine coal profitably and that the state
has enacted laws prohibiting the employ
ment of men in the mines unless they
have worked two years in anthracite
mines and therefore they cannot, for the
time being, mine coal. How then, under
these circumstances, can there be any
violation of public duty? If We yield to
the extravagant demands of the miners
we will lose money. II we attempt to in
crease the price of coal we will destroy
the industries depending upon anthracite
fuel. II we increase the price on the do
nestle sizes we will be called robber
harons oppressors of the poor, monopo-
lists and enemies of mankind. We have
concluded. therefore, that our duty to our
selves and to the public will best be serv-
ed by standing firm on these PROPOSE
tons:
First-That the wages paid in the an
thracite coal regions are, compared with
the wages paid in like employment, fair
and just and that men willing to work
honestly can earn more money on the
present basis of wages than in any other
industry engaged in producing common
articles of necessity in the United States.
''Second-That wages cannot be in
creased without increasing the price of
coal and to increase the price of coal will
restrict the market and drive the pubnc
to use bituminous, n cheaper and more
abundant fuel. and that a restricted mar
xet will curtail production and result in
depriving the miners of regular employ
ment.
''Third-That we are not fighting labor
OF CARNATIONS. We fully recognize the
right of men to organize to protect them
selves from oppression and to benefit
themselves in any legitimate way But
we do oppose their unreasonable interfer-
,nce with the discipline and ordinary
MANAGEMENT of our business. We will
not permit them to select our employees.
Neither politics, religion, nationality nor
The Montgomery advertiser., 1902-09-04

membership in labor organizations shall
debar any competent man from working
for US. We are fighting the battle of
freedom for the individual and his right
to labor on his own terms.
"Fourth-That 1t is, by reason of vary
ing conditions at each mine, impractical
BILE to adopt a uniform scale Of wages
for the whole region But that at each
colliery. every complaint and grievance
will be taken up and investigated by the
superintendents and adjusted whenever
1t is just. personally offered to Mitch
ell and his district presidents to go with
them and investigate any grievance.
You cannot arbitrate questions Of
wages when an increase will destroy the
business and a decrease will be unac-
ceptible to the workmen
I'VE cannot arbitrate question as to
whether mining operation and business
generally shall be managed under the
commensurate rule Of law and equity, by
owners and the servants they have Sc
lected, or by a labor organization.
"You cannot arbitrate the right to pro-
tect your property and your workmen
from the mob rule of labor organizations
VINO boldly proclaim purpose to de-
stroy property and endeavor to make
their proclamation effective by killing
and injuring their fellow workmen who
refuse to join in their lawlessness. When
Mitchell ordered the engineers, fremen
and pumpmen to desert their posts. he
knew that unless the operators could
supply their places, the mines would De
destroyed and with their destruction 14o,-
900 men with their wives and children de-
pendent upon their labor, would be de-
prived of work for a long time.
THE operators were compelled to en-
ploy police at their own expense to
guard the new men employed to man
the pumps to save their mines. The
guards and the law authorizing them are
denounced and when private citizens like
Beddal are murdered and State authori-
ties are denounced for sending troops TO
preserve the peace. Today that gallant
soldier, General Goblin. who fought with
distinction in our Civil War, and than
whom no juster man lives, is bitterly
maligned for protecting the property and
lives of Pennsylvania citizens
The reply concludes as follows:
We have discussed this whole subject
fully, and have endeavored to show you
that SC und business makes 1t impossible
to increase wages We know that the
wages are fair and relatively high and
that If the leaders of the bituminous mine
workers had not. for selfish purpose, In
vaded the anthracite fields, our men
would have continued to work peaceably
and contentedly. I regret that no other
solution can be found, but you will see
how Impossible II is to overlook the con-
trolling business conditions already
pointed out"
