......J. N. Meek, the mine operator,
at Meek station. is having quite a lot
. of trouble just now with the United
Mine Workers OF Union. But 1t seems
that he is having the best OF the
strike, as he has ousted the men
from his houses and is fast filling the
places with non-Unionmen. In try
ing the rights of possession Of the
houses Judges Rice acted as court,
and examined several witnesses and
asked the question as to why they
struck II they were not making good
money. The answer was that, that
wasn't the question: there was no
kick whatever about wages, but they
simply wanted to be recognized.
Judge Rice said, that is a very poor
thing to strike over, and he like Mr..
Meek did not believe In the union,
which voices the sentiments Of all
the leading citizens and brains OF the
world. and II the authorities would
raise in their power they could put
a stop to this menace to prosperity.
We, at least believe in government
orn state control of prices, which OF
course should be regulated by the
great law Of supply and demand
but away with the idea OF a bunch
OF men secretly plotting to destroy
our business interests. 1t is not
right. therefore 1t will never succeed.
