A PLEA FOR WORKERS.
To Earn His Daily Bread In His Own
Way.

Way.
Philadelphia, Feb LARA Ii. Burns,
of Scranton counsel for the independ-
ent operators OF the Lackawanna in
his address before the coal arbitr ators,
said:
what are the respective claims Of
the miners and operators? The miners
want more pay and less work The
operators want the right of every man
to own and control his own labor.
1.-The one wants more money; the
other more law and order The one
contends for a policy; the other for a
principle. Whether man shall re-
ccive one dollar or two for Il days
work, or whether he shill work eight
hours or ten are matters of policy and
eXpediency on which men may honest
ly differ and which may be changed by
agreements; but whether man shall
be allowed to earn his daily bread in
his own way, subject only to the laws
of the land is principle as old as the
creation and as eternal as the ever
lasting hills.
THE crucial point in this whole con-
troversy will finally be the right of
every man to enjoy the fruit of his
labor with no one to modest or make
afraid.
"We respectively but earnestly urge
this body not to forget the suiferings
and deserts of the non-union miner,
he stands for q principle
