THE TWO PHASES OF LABOR.

count. for even though their member

they have been given a fair trial. we
are no nearer solution of the in
dustrial problem than before. -
President Meyer of Western Federation
of Miners.
Strikes will multiply as our ac-
tivity increases. Just i'll proportion
to our strength and influence. we will
become more aggressive. This will
naturally multiply our strikes and
lockouts, and in order to give the
strikers the necessary support it will
require the combined intelligence of
this convention to determine ON plans
to raise funds for this purpose. -

LOOK AT THIS PICTURE.

1.-The question of its ability to pro-
tect its working agreements is now a
prominent factor in determining the
responsibility of labor organization
in the business and employing world.
The organization that represents en-
ployes in making an agreement that is
acceptable to them and shirks respon-
sibility when individuals or rivals
disturb the peaceful relations between
employees and employer is not of the
type that will command confidence in
our progressive civilization and the
enlightened trend of the relations be-
tween capital and labor.
"While the que stion of the protec-
tion of the labor contract is in its in
fancy and education of the Sr"iu mass
of the unionists along these lines is
necessarily slow. still we predict that

Labor's family quarrel is summed
up in the above quotations. There is
an element that bel ewes in rea son,
honor. law, represented by Mr.. Nor
1issey's sentiments, and there is an
other that believes in the weapons OF
violence. unreason and hatred, of
which Messrs. Meyer and Mcdonald
are samples.
According to the line of reasoning
of these latter two gentlemen, all the
success that the American Labor Union
and Western Federation of Miners
may expect to gain will be by means
of the strikes and revolution. In re-
turn for these blessings they ask the
public support and sympathy.
They demand that the employers
give preference TO members OF their
organizations and in repayment of
the favor offer prescription, the boy
colt, sympathetic strikes and every
other form of disruption their fertile
minds may invent.
Trades unionism. the mainstay, the
body and soul of organized labor,
these gentry say is proven failure.
We unhesitatingly say that no labor
organization can exist long, nor should
it be allowed to exist at all, whose
stock in trade is the walkout. ~
Which is founded on the socio- anar-
chistlc basis that the employer has no
right which the emplove is called to
respect, if on fact he has any right to
exist at all
Which not only seeks to array labor
against capital. but labor against
itself.
The employer of labor is not per Sc
the foe of labor. Usually he is no
better or worse than the man who
works for him. Cut from the same
cloth. bone of one bone and flesh of
one flesh. Their interests are com
mon. Organizations. whatever their
name, that breed distrust between
them are enemies to both.
Business interests demand that there
shall be stability in the relations of
capital and labor and associations
founded on the incendiary basis need
expect any more respectful considera-
tiou than fire-b bugs, sand baggers OF
other dangerous human beasts for the
irresponsible, hostile employe may
work more havoc than the most reck-
less criminal.
If Messrs Mcdonald and Meyer S
views voice the sentiments of the re
spective organizations. it is plain the
lives of those bodies will be short and
stormy Without the confidence OF
the employing class they will soon fall
to pieces. for there is no way to force
an employer to prefer an enemy to s
friend. Labor organizations mus
always reckon on this fact.

True sympathy with Children.

There are many conscientious fathers
and mothers who make themselves
and their children miserable by taking
youthful fOibleS too seriously. 1t is
an innate propensity Of child possess
eel Of average good health and spirits
to make older people laugh with him,
not at him, but at the things that
seem amusing to his own sense. And
the mother who has the blithe and
ready hum0r TO enter into his fun be-
comes his most fascinating companion.
He needs her rebukcs and bends tt
her correction without iii feeling,
where StcrnneSs would arouse his
pride and ire, fer he is assured that
she is ready to share all his innocent
pranks, and that her disapproval has
no foundation in impatiencc or in.
justice. And when the day arrives
that childish things arc put away
and the grown men and women looI
backward to their early home, will
what a throb or pleasure they say

body was laid out ina dnrkcncd room
waiting to be laid in cold, lone
grave. Ills afflicted mother and
bcrcavcd sister went to look at the
sweet face Of the precious sleeper, for

they stood gazing on the face Of one
SO beloved and cherished, the little
girl asked to shake his hand The
mother at iirSt did not think it best,
but the child repeated the request
ana seemed very anxious about it,.
She took the cold, bloodcss hand OF
her sleeping boy and placed it in the
hand OF his weeping sister. The dear
child looked at ita moment, carcsscd

mother through tears Of aniction and

The Horrible Isontls.

1t is a sad commentary upon our
civilization that our roads should be
in their present condition. There can
scarcely be found Il good road in this
county when the best Of weather pre-
walls, and during Il rainy period like
that which has continued for the past
several weeks, the roads are almost
impas Iable. Something is radically
wrong when such state of affairs
exists. The trouble lies in the law
under which the roads are worked

the county. We believe that every

Practically the only people who are
now Kicking against Il property tax
arc those who have no taxes to pay
There is neither pleasure nor profit in
highways such as we now have. There
is Il great deal of pleasure and more

to secure good roads is to impose Il
tax upon all property and use the

That is what we need and that is
what we demand and must have. In

Ii Is Not Needed.

A bill recently introduced in the
Pennsylvania Legislature to provide
Il commission and appropriation to
erect, in cooperation with the State
Of Virginia, an equestrian statue OF
General Robert Il. Lee on the BATTLE
field OF Gettysburg" has given the
thrcc-fOr-a-Quarter statesmen Of that
State Il chance to show their teeth
andsabusc the Southern people. The
originator Of the scheme was Col. a.
X. Mcclure, who was for many years
editor OF the Philadelphia Times and
who was during the war Il gallant
Union officer. We recognize the fact
that Col. Mcclure was actuatcd by
none save the purest motives and
that his sole purpose was to give
the South and her great chieftain the
same place on the field Of Gettysburg
which they occupied when it was
swept by shot and shell, and when
brave men faced their brothers for a
cause each believed to be just. But
we dislike very much to see the name
OF Lee SO placed that an opportunity
is given to very small men to Sncer at
1.-THE memory Of Il great man and to
SHOW their shallow minds. We would
| like to see Il monument erected to the
immortal Lee on the field of GettyS-
burg if il was put there as free will
offering and paid for by private funds
contributed by those who wanted To
thus honor one OF the greatest men
this country has ever produced, but
there is no need of Il monument to
| I on, nt ~ tus r,1. x,I,n /;
is to he paid for out Of public funds.
Such monuments mean nothing. AS
the Ncwbcrry News and Herald well
says Lees greatest monument is the
deep love and reverence which for him
will ever exist in the hearts Of The
Southern people. What greater
monument, or more enduring, could
| mortal wish? The very monuments
which crowd the field OF Gettysburg,
telling Of the glorious deeds Of Tho
Northern hosts, tell also Of the hero
ism of those VINO wore the gray. Car
glorious deeds be performed in con
QucrinE a weaker foe, unless Il weaker
foe perform deeds more glorious? Tha
is the question that will spring to the
lips of each thoughtful person whit
visits the battlefield or Gettysburg.
This is true, and it is the only kind 0
a monument that would be appropri
ate to the great and glorious Lee
The bitterness exhibited by thOS
who oppose the bill serves only to Shov
the narrowncSS Of spirit which still
prevails among some people who liv
at the North and who call themSclvc
Americans. Such exhibitions Of hat
does not hurt the people Of the Soutl
or dim the fame that the civilized
world has long since accorded TO Gen

AGood Law.

In the State Senate last Friday
morning Mr.. Stanland's toy pistol bill
came up for IL third reading. The bill
Us it passed the Senate prohibits the
sale or giving away Of toy pistol
cartridges or caps. Senator Ragsdalc,
Of Florence, wanted to exempt pistols
shooting paper caps from the provi-
sions OF the bill, but Senator Mcleod,
Of Lee County, made a brief address
full Of good sense and with an eye &c
the future. He said it was time
to instil In tho minds Of the boys that
a pistol Is something TO be let alone.
1t is an easy step from the toy pistol
to Il % calibre, to 32 calibre and sc
on, and it Is a good time now to cease
to encourage the formation OF most
dangerous habit. The amendment
was killed by practically unanimous
vote and the bill passed and was sent
to the house, where it should be pass
ed without delay, as 1t is a good law

Worse than War.

death on the railways of Great Bri-
tain, one is forced 10 pause and in
