Such verdict would control public opinion and
that opinion would demand a settlement forthwith
Woe unto the one who would defy such a Judgment.
1t is passing strange that John Mitchell president
of the United Mine Workers Union with his fertility
of resource, his wisdom. and his foresight has not
sought this method of obtaining public verdict Its
simplicity, its thoroughness, its effectiveness
to be doubted And it carries thiny veiled threat
to whomsoever would disregard such verdict.
Compulsory arbitration in its ordinary sense is
repugnant to the genius of our institutions The or
ganizaton of workinemen which would stand for it
would constitute itself public enemy Bui an arbi-
ration such herein set forth would reach all the
benecent es of the spirit of arbitration with equal
and exact justice to both parties to dispute.

Likewise, decision in the matter against the
miners would light their very lamps and start the
mines before another day had waxed and waled, leav

turn refuse to abide by decision against them the
flood of relief money upon which their existence now
depends would cease between The rising of the

dsinegrated, and they themselves bereft of public
sympathy and the confidence of their fellows, left to
gnaw the file of defeat in lonely misery.
Shall it be said of America that economic con-
dition may be invented by which has no remedy
devisable by American wisdom?

Senator, speaking OF the coal strike, said
it would undoubtedly hurt the Repub-
