| vince of the Durango unions to take
cially at this time. II is matter fol
| those directly Interested to settle and
outside resolutions and newspaper in
reference is uncalled for Take for
instance. the coal strike in La Plata
county last spring. II was not for the
| outside to determine what was right
but for those Interested. and the idea
of a set of men thousands of miles
away resoluting on questions not thor
oughly understood The Herald is not
going to be cowardly, either In the To-
cal fight here, as will be observed in
another column. or elsewhere on main
propositions. We say Il would be the
height of foolishness for the miners of
the Cripple Creek district to strike on
account of the mine products being
sold wherever the operators can do
the best. and where they please. We
consider 1t unnecessary interference
with the rights of the mine owners. If
the men are dissatisfied with their
own treatment and wages, II was a diff
ferent matter. In this connection Just
as we stated editorially the other day
we hope the day is not far away when
all labor troubles can be adjusted
without the necessity of resorting to
force, one way or the other. The posi-
ton of The Herald concerning arbitra-
ton is endorsed by the citizens of
Cripple Creek, as per today's dis
patches, wherein they plead for the
mill trouble to be settled by arbitra-
ton.
AS to whether the governor was
wrong in calling out troops cannot be
decided by any one not on the ground
or absolutely Knowing the facts. And
here comes up the fundamental prin-
ciple-that resort to violence to pre-
vent men working is wrong, We con
slider it perfectly proper for men to or
ganize and in every peaceable way en-
treat and urge others not to take their
places during strike, but there is no
moral or legal right for union men to
resort to violence. as every man is
guaranteed his rights to work under
very turbulent world We're it other
wise. The Herald considers 1t right
for union printers to endeavor to keep
non-union men from working on the
Democrat, or refusing to have any
thing to do with those who uphold the
paper for employing non-union men,
but The Herald would condemn any
violent attack on the non-union men.
IL the union men or strikers com
mitted depredations or wantonly at
tackled those who persisted in working,
officers must lend protection. and the
only question is: did the sheriff of
El Paso county exhaust all means
within his power to preserve peace
and protect innocent workmen before
calling on the governor"

The Herald is not going to borrow
any trouble until necessary. Instead,
we firmly believe that the year is 60
ing to be fruitful one. There is lit
tie possibility of labor troubles in
an Juan camps A scale of wages
was agreed upon and signed by min
ers and operators in San Juan county
last summer for three years. The same
conditions exist at Telluride. There
fore there is no trouble to look for in
that direction. II we can keep down
the extremists on both sides all will
be peace and harmony.
Durango semi-weekly herald., 1903-03-12

Labor unions are going to increase
in strength. but the day is coming
when all differences between employ
er and employe will be settled by arbi-
tration. Publicity of corporations as
advocated by Roosevelt will enable
arbilrators TO determine the rights of
both sides and wage scales and hours
will be based on equity and justice.
The Herald believes that those who
toll are entitled to some of the profits
brought about by their labor, whether
they belong to the unions or not.
Durango semi-weekly herald., 1903-03-12

The Herald's position on arbitration
is endorsed by Governor Peabody in
an interview in Sunday mornings Re
publican, as follows: Arbitration is
the only way in which to settle the
differences in any case of this kind,
said the governor yesterday. should
there be a suggestion OF such course
| should certainly use every effort to
bring about such method of peace
ably settling the trouble. AS yet how
ever, no one has requested me to act
on such a proposition"

Resolved That we emphatically de-
nounce this action of the governor as
unwarrantable abuse of his author

to the situation, and to incite CON

the minds Of the citizens of the state.
Resolved, That in consideration of

not parties to the dispute the govern

Resolved, That this meeting con
demn the subserviency of n. G. Miller,

the governor would not have issued
the order asked by the corporations,
Resolved. That we respectfully re-
quest the general assembly now in ses-

DEEP IN TROUBLE
Coal Valley Man Comes to Town
as Defendant in Civil
Suit.
GETS DRUNK AND Is LOCKED UP
Spends Night in Police Station and
is Fined for Being
Disorderly.

John Baker, a Coal Valley resident,
yesterday evening became beautifully
booty, and after leaving his rig tied
near Twenty-siXth street and Fifth
avenue lost himself in the mazes of
that region. When he finally located
his outfit he proceeded to get revenge
for the trouble he had put himself to,
according to the story of the police,
by cutting up his harness with his
jack knife, incidentally giving the
horses few jabs in the ribs. Officer
Pearson happened along before the
work of demolition had been COM
pleted and Baker and the rig were
taken care of.
Defendant In Civil Suit
The occasion for the prisoners be-
ing in the city was in order to appear
as defendant in civil case started
against him by Felix Hendricks,
which was called up in Justice
Schroeder's court yesterday. Baker
keeps saloon in Coal Valley and
Hendricks was his bartender One
night in Il row Baker struck Hen
bricks across the forehead with a
Ratchet and laid the back of his head
open with an iron cuspidor.
Hendricks was laid out for time.
His skull was fractured and pieces of
bone had to be taken out where the
blow from the Ratchet was sustained.
His assailant pleaded guilty to as
sault and battery and got off with a
light fine. Hendricks incurred Il doe
tor bill of considerable proportions
while recovering from the injury and
he yesterday brought suit to recover
800 to meet the bill and to settle
wages alleged, to have been unpaid.
| The case was continued till Feb. II.
Baker was given a hearing this
morning, as as result of last night S
adventure, before Magistrate John
son. He claimed that he had not cut
the harness. but that it had been done
by some of the friends of Hendricks,
who are his enemies. The charge
against him was made to read ''drunk
and disorderly" and he was fined So
