Oh! the pity of it 1t certainly
seems that if the men who 60 on
strike would stop and consider the
cost, they would be less prone to

provocation Take for instance the
Chicago strike. Nineteen garment
cutters were unable to secure what
they regarded as adequate wages
and they went on strike. Then
the teamsters, actuated by sym
patty" for their own wives and fam.
lilies demanded different course.
Did they think of the debts they
would be compelled to incur and
of the terrible struggle to get paid
up" which must certainly follow
their own prolonged idleness. Did
they reflect that there would prob.
ably be, as there have been up
ward of 800 men "slugged" before
the strike was concluded? Did
they realize that the strike would
cost, as it has, 100000 for the
labor that has been wasted and
which can never be regained? Do
they consider the fact that the
nineteen garment cutters are back
at work, while they, the teams,
sters and their families are suffer
ing want and being driven, some
no doubt from cruelty, but many
perhaps by want, to acts of bru.
tality their fellow men, "scabs'
perhaps, but nevertheless men, land
men who are, no doubt. driven by
lack of other occupation, to take
the york of the transfers former
employers? Never was the advice
