A VICTORY FOR LABOR

The fact that there are two sides
to be considered in forming an opin-
Ion in regard to union labor is we'll
vexemplified in the recent press dis
patches. The result of the referendum
alsed by the western bituminous coal
miners, whereby they accepted a re-
a1uction of SIX per cent in wages for
two years. shows the inherent common
sense of the American working man,
while the violence shown in the strikes
Sn Chicago and Colorado shows to
what extent men will go when their
passions are appealed to and aroused.
The union is the logical outgrowth
of the trust The combination of cap
1tai necessitated the combination Of
labor In England the union of labor
ang men was caused by the usage of
the power of that concentrated capital
which was % result of a feudal system
OF government In America the union
of the laborinY men was caused by the
use of the power of that concentrated
capital which was a result Of the prin-
'ciple of cooperation applied to BUSH
ness
That corporations have no souls has
been common, current saying for
years, and the fact that they often
:arfed as if they had none, aroused a
feeling OF antagonism in the minds of
those who worked for them. Unions
were formed. and this feeling found its
first expression in strikes.
Violence is always the first resort of
men unframed in self-control, and the
history Of unionism in England and in
America shows 1t to have been the
FIRST action taken by united labor. Il.
'Self-preservation has been called the
airst law of nature and selfishness ia
ats Inniinant Characteristic. The &C.
Quisition Of power-of any kind Of

the possibilities in organized labor Gre

money; the other exploited men and
capitalists to get some money.
These are. OF course. many, very
many, honest. able. conscientious men
on both sides. and to their presence is
due the latest victory of labor. In

until it is as weak as toast water and tust about
as exhilarating. Not that Mrs Whitaker is not
q character worthy Of being embalned in fiction,
but that she IS too interesting TO be dissolved in
it Mrs. Whitaker was all mind or thought she
was. and devoted a decade Of her life TO i'm
proving il. She longed for a career, for an op-
portunity to lift others up to the high intel
lectual standard she had herself attained. So
she married Mr. Whitaker. who was some
thing in the City" and went In for things"
Incidentally, there arrived two daughters, Maud
and Julia, but, as Mrs Whitaker believed in
originality she let the girls bring themselves up
pretty much as they wished, and, though the
reader is allowed to tremble at what the results
might be- they really made a pretty good job o.
it, Going in for things" took up much of
Mrs. Whittaker's time and energy that she gave
little attention TO her personal appearance, and
by the time she was fifty she was, in plain terms,
a fat dowdy. She was, nevertheless, much be
loved by her family for she was good tempered,
and. although she allowed them to go their own
ways. she cared too much for the creature com
forts Of life to neglect her home.
Such was Mrs Whitaker when, after l4S
pages. she was suddenly seized with the fear
that her husband no longer cared for her. So
she gave up her societies and began to pay at
teution to her personal appearance, thinking in
that way to win back his errant fancy. This Is
where the story really begins, although by this
time Maud is married and happily settled. How
wen she succeeds and how unnecessary but de-
Iightf1I her efforts proved to be is the story. 1t

self The method adopted was doubtless for
each correspondent to assume character. and
to write in the adopted personality. The letters
are clever, if somewhat sentimental and often
rather trivial and the mystery is well kept up
TO the very end. where the letters develop real
strength and intensity. and make one regret
that 50 much Of the best should have been left

completely used as corn. The grain
is used for food both for human beings
and cattle. while the stalks are used
as cattle feed. The pith OF the corn
