We read with real horror that the Chi cago strikers interfered with the burial of the dead. but where is the difference in principle between interfering with the dead and the living? If strikers have a right to prevent living man from going to work. they have the same right to prevent his dead body being carried to the grave. If they have a right to prevent non-union men from building a house. they have right to prevent them from digging grave, driving hearse or cov- ering the buried dead. If one is right, the other is right. All are wrong.

Nelson, LittlefeId and EIkins Meas

White House.
PRESIDENT URGES ACTION
Bills Now Being Considered y
Congress Are Expected to
BE Speedily Enacted
Into Live Laws.

Washington, Feb. l0.--Discusslon OF
antitrust legislation was continued al
the white house today. President
Roosevelt had Several conferences with
senators and representatives concern
ing the pending measures, the discussion
revolving about the Nelson publicity
amendment to the department OF COM
merce bill, which was passed by the
house Saturday.
Early In the day the president had
conference with Mr.. Littlefield. The
latter is urging strongly that his meas
ure be taken up and passed by the
senate. He maintains that while the
Nelson amendment provides for public
ity as TO some OF the operations Of cor
porations, it does not go so far as his
measure and not as far as congress
ought 10 go in the matter.
Later Senators Spooner and Aldrich
had extended talks with the president
about antitrust legislation. With 9TH
er callers .he president discussed the
subject. urging upon ALL 1t is under

should enact the Nelson amendment
and the Elkins rebate measure. 1t is

ROOSEVELT A STRONG MAN.
But His Attitude Regarding Trusts AL.
ienate Machine Politicians.

New York, Feb. 10.--The London
Times in an editorial on United States
politics this morning says. according
to dispatch from London to the Times
that President Roosevelt is a strong
man, but that he has difficult task
confronting him. He has inevitably
placed himself in opposition TO some Of
the politicians controlling the machine
who bitterly resent his attitude toward
the trusts.
President RooseveIt's position in de-
manding from congress powers to
make regulation and publicity impera-
tive by law. will, in the opinion OF the
Times. be greatly strengthened by any
proceedings such as are alleged to have
been taken in trying to stop trust pro-
ceedings.
There is some reason to fear, the edi-
torial fears, that the folly thus shown
by the party identified with the trusts
may ALLEVIATE not few Of those who
would like to hold the balance even in
a controversy where there is a good
deal to be said on both sides.

BOW WOW SAID THE COuN-
Sell FOR NONUNIONISTS
Attorney Lenahan Claimed That the
Miners Union Is n Breeder of
Anarchy, Revolt and
Carnage.

Philadelphia, Feb, l0.-The United
Mlneworkers OF America as an organl-
cation was severely scored today by
the counsel before the anthracite coal
commission. Nonunion men, through
their attorney, John T, Leaahan, pre-
santed their side of the controversy and
demanded consideration at the hands Of
the commission, claiming a legal right
to earn living as they might elect
without the consent or dictation of the
union. During his presentation Of the
case Lenahan denounced the union as a
fomenter of crime and anarchy.
The main feature of his argument
was to claim that the union had no
legal or moral right to coerce miners
into membership or to arrogate to it,
self authority 20 fix the wages of mine
workers.
James II, Torrey, counsel for the
Delaware and Hudson company claim
ed that the question of recognition of
the union was not an. issue before the

Washington, Feb. l0.--In order that
the administration antitrust program
of legislation may be rendere entirely
symmetrical II is known that President
Roosevelt desires that what Is called
as the Eikins rebate bill shall be en-
acted into law. That measure was
passed by the senate last week and
is now pending before the interstate
and foreign commerce committee of
the house, of which Representative
Hepburn OF Iowa is chairman.
During several days the president
has been comforting as opportunity af-
forded with prominent members of the
house about the rebate bill and the
subject was considered last night at
a conference at the white house be-
tween President Roosevelt and several
leaders Of the house. The president
also had q conference with Speaker
Henderson concerning the bill. 1t Is
understood that while the speaker is
not wholly in sympathy with the meas
ure, 1t can be stated on excellent au-
thority that the speaker and committee
on rules. of which he is ex-officio head,
will authorize if necessary a special
rule providing for the consideration Of
the bill after 1t has been reported by
Hepburn's committee. Such action, it
is asserted, practically would mean the
passage of the measure by the house
and it's enactment into law,
