COAL STRIKE |.K| IS
ALMOST CERTAIN
Man Familiar With Situation
Says Western Fields Only,
Will Be Affected.

1T is practically certain that there
will be a strike OF the coal miners in
Illinois. Ohio and Indiana, but I doubt
II the trouble will seriously 1nterrup
operators in the bituminous fields of
Pennsylvania, for the reason that the
Pittsburg Coal company, and some 9th
er Pennsylvania operators are strongly
in favor of paying the demands of the
miners" said a gentleman at the Spald-
ing who is we'll posted on the situa-
ton.
The operators in Illinois, Indiana
and Ohio are not averse to a strike TAX
ing place, for many of them claim to
have made no money during 1905, and
a strike would bring the prices Of the
commodity up to q profitable standard
Beside they would stand show OF
winning out against the miners. The
mild winter has upset the calculation
of the coal operators to some extent
The operators in Illinois are indig-
nant over the law that was enacted by
the last legislature OF that state pro
viding for additional men at the mines
to be known as shot frers. This law,
the operators say, increases the cost OF
production. The regular miners place
the shots and they are fired by men
employed for that purpose
THE miners union is very strong
in Illinois. The men working on con.
tract earn from 81 to $40 a. day. and
men in the Pennsylvania districts get
about $1.85 for doing substantially the
same work. eight-hour days in each
case. West Virginia, Iowa and Ken.
lucky will not be affected by the min.
ers' strike"

"THE DIGNITY OF LABOR"

Said the miner deep down in the earth
And he laughed at the humor of it
It's JOY and revel to work like the
devil
AS long as my health will permit;
And altho' it's loss
of delight to the boss,
He doesn't seem jealous a bit!''
Said the girl in the laundering mill.
With smile that was grateful and
sweet;
ITS so pleasant-this spinning, I fear
that I'm SHINING
In wanting to sleep and to eat;
Oh, It would be so grand
To be able to stand
Another twelve hours on my feet!''
Said the child in the tenement shop:
Don't send me to play, if you please!
la rather be sewing and stitching, you
This hotbed of filth and disease:
For sWeatshop, you see.
Is far dearer to me
Than birds and the blOssOming troas
Said the college professor with glee:
Ihey think I'm in earnest, but
pshaw!
I'm boss of college, and that's why nv
knowledge
lmpresses the rabble with awe:
But I'm out for my health.
And honor and wealth.
BY working my graft-and nv jawr'

The Ship Subsidy Steal.

The ship subsidy Bill which has
passed the senate. will benefit nobody
but the sh1p-owners, and that at the
expense Of all the people. 1t makes
the lot of the American Sailor even
harder than before and affords him
practically no protection in his rights
for redress for wrongs. An amend
ment to the bill, submitted by Pat
terson, provided that no part of the
subsidy should be paid to ships en-
ploying Chinese as part of their
crews was voted down by nearly
three to one. This was natural be-
cause the ship owners prefer Chin
csc crews; and some of the senators
are ship owners. For a similar
reason, an amendment by McLurin
providing that no part of the SUBJ
sides provided for should be paid
to Senators, members of the house
or of federal officers, and voted down
without division. The ship subsidy
measure may be briefly character
lied as an Infamous steal.

BUSINESS CAREFULNEss
From the PHILADELPHIA Record.

FROM TIE fnllauelpn1a Record:
A man who recently sold the mann.
script of an article to a magazine MIR
l1shed In New York tells a story fins
trat1ng the excessive care generally
used in the transaction Of business in
that city. He had made the sale In
person and during several visits to the
magazine office had always met the
editor. The check of $50 in payment
was received by him here Just as he
was leaving for New York and he too1x
1t with him. Knowing the impossible
ity Of getting it cashed there without
Identification he went to the office Of
the magazine and finding the editor
out, applied to the. treasurer and asked
If he couldn't be accommodated with
the cash. "Certainly,' said the treas
urer, but how shall you be identi-
f1ed?" Then the payee remembered
the stenographer he had seen and
spoken to in the editors office and thev
went to her. rs this Mr.. Jones p
asked the treasurer. Yes" said the
young woman; "at least" she added "a
an after thought, II suppose it is. He
said his name was Jones when he, first
called. several weeks ago, and he's
been here once or twice since" The
treasurer saw the humor of the situ-
alton, but expressed polite sorrow at
his inability to do anything. and the
transaction had to pause until the ed
itOr returned.

STATE SOCIETY OF LABOR IS AGAINST
GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION.
institutional"

ed provision CONSTITUTIONAL
Political bosses and financial aut-
ocrats can usually trample on incon-
venient laws with impunity but of the
common people strict obedience is re-
quired. The great wealth of the cor
porauons, and Of their allies, enables
them to keep thousands of lawyers
employed, but the workers have no
vast vaults filled with unearned
wealth from which to draw the sin
ews of war. Therefore. no matter
how fragrant his offense, a Rogers
can usually defy the court with i'm
punity where common people would
be both fined and Jailed.
In short, because the class Of cap
italists who Cypress the poor, though
few in number are under existing
conditions nearly all powerful; and
although the ninety-five per cent Of
the people who are being plundered
by them would If properly organized,
be irresistible, they are in fact prac-
tically helpless.
We submit therefore, that, with
ready closely united by 'commun-
ity of interests" it behooves those
upon whom they are preying to devise
some plan for their common protec-
ton. Therefore,:
Resolved, that we urge all labor
and other Organizations, and persons
that have the publice welfare at heart
to consider whether the time has not
come to hold national convention
for the purpose agreeing Jpn the
best plan for preventing further ag-
gressions, recovering lost ground, and
securing such a basis for law as will
increase instead Of decrease respect for
the courts.
Be it resolved further: That the
secretary shall have the foregoing
preamble printed and circulated in
the way that in his judgment will
produce the best and quickest re-
suits
I hereby certify that the above
resolution was adopted by the State
Society of Labor and Industry in

the inscription would \be to the effect
that the first public Latin school in
America stood there. In such ways
the streets of town could be made
a veritable book for the public, In
which literally they that run might
read. These tablets could be given at
tractive shape as simple or as ornate
as desired, and perhaps fashioned at
ter some standard design, as street
signs are. Or. where a street bears the
name Of a person of note. the tablet
might include medallion portrait In
low relief. The thoroughfare itself
would thereby more fully serve the
function of commemorative monu-
ment. Inscriptions might at first be
affixed in temporary shape, gradually
to be reproduced in bronze, perhaps a
certain number each year. Such a.
work would add greatly to the interest
of a place. Practically in the older
parts Of the country, as in New Eng
land, the historic character of which
attracts tourists from other parts of
the country in increasing numbers
every year, it would be a renumerative
outlay for community to undertake
the task as completely as possible.

A STREET SIGN HIT.

From Sylvester Bakers art in the
Street" In the March Century,:
Minor and mulifold things, like street
signs, can be made objects of art, how
ever simple their character. Care may
easily be had to give them proper pro-
BILE with legibility and good lettering.
In the case of waysfde guideboards
there is yet further opportunity to
make them attractive in design. In
Boston, when street signs stand de-
tached from buildings. a pleasant dec
orative effect is given by some simple
wrough iron scrollwork in the angle
between board and post.
In many ports of Boston are to be
seen bronze tablets with appropriate
inscriptions, marking some historic
building or commemorating some no.
table event. Certain patriotic orders.
like the Sons Of the Revolution, have
made the placing Of such tablets one
of their duties. In various New Eng
land communities local historic soci-
et1es mark notable sites in a similar
gennds, to be replaced, when means
permit. by inscriptions more endur-
ing. This service might well be ex-
tended. Street names often bear in
innate relations with local history, but
for lack of record the circumstances Of
their designation are likely to be for
gotten. - r. Y
Here, then, is a rich field of work
for 1odal societies, in platang each
street that bears a name of historical
purport an inscription giving the facts
Of the case. Lincoln street, in Boston,
for instance, might now commonly be
supposed to be named in honor Of the
great presto lent. But q suitable inscrip-,
ton would recite the fact that the
