Bisbee daily review., 1907-05-23

IAudiiilSSlig FlulcuiouS WAS lne- reason
 given for the strike order that many
 of the miners refused to obey the call
 and remained al their work in the
 mines, while all other classes of labor employed by the companies, including
 machinists, hoisting engineers. black
 smiths. carpenters and firemen voted
 unanimously to continue in the em- ployment of the companies, thereby withholding their approval of the strike order
 The trouble at Bisbee was the re suit of. few labor agitators. who themselves, had nothing to lose what ever might be the result of the strike They came into the Warren district and found four thousand miners at
 work for the highest wages paid in any western camp, where union and non-union men had for twenty-five
 years peacefully and contentedly
 worked side by side. where there had never bee. trouble between employ CTS and employees and where the most prosperous mining camp in the world
 had grown up in universal peace. The agitating organizers knew when they came to Bisbee that their attempt to change conditions there and force the camp under the control of the wsst- 'ern Federation of Miners would change this peaceful and prosperous condition into one of uncertainty which would cause heavy loss to min CTS and business men. They knew that less than a year before they ar rived in Bisbee with their Western Federation charter the men at work in Bisbee, union and non-union men alike, had voted against the organiza- ton of a miners union in that camp by the enormous majority of S7 per cent of the votes cast, and, knowing this, these fellows forced themselves in to break the peace of the district.
 The claim that the union miners 
 have been discriminated against in Bisbee was belied by the words of the strike leaders themselves in Strike Circular No. r in which it was claimed that they had pulled S5 per cont of the men working in the mines away from their jobs; if S5 per cent of the men at work in the mines were union men when Canon and Rawlings issued their strike order this is suffi- cient to convince the world that the companies had not been discriminate ing against men who belonged to the union
 The strike at Bisbee has resulted in benefit only to the agitating social ists who. deliberately brought it about; these men have been able to bring about a condition favorable to their calling in Bisbee, but they will be unable to continue it very much long CT and they evidently are getting very tired of their task of breaking up the @open camp" policy which has pre- vailed so long and so satisfactorily in the Warren district

At the present time Mrs. Truax is very much improved in health as the re- suit of her trip. Her son left the city on Monday evening for Fl Paso, where he met her and her daughter and returned to the city with them last evening.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR sissEE TROUBLE.

Now that the strike inaugurated by Canon and Rawlings and other West ern Federation organizers in the War ren district is practically at an end and with sufficient men at work in the mines to insure an ore product tc meet the demands of the reduction works. it is proper for the truth oi future history regarding the Bisbee strike to direct attention to those who are responsible for The trouble and to take stock of results
 As near as can be estimated the strike resulted in the loss ok employ ment by not less than twelve hundred men, many of them having families and other relatives depending upon their labor for support. These men were receiving four dollars per day for eight hours work. Nowhere in the west can these miners secure employ ment under such favorable conditions; the loss to each of these men has been S4 per day and their expense of trav- cling to other camps. To say nothing of the traeling expenses and assuming that 1t would be an average of thirty days before these men could possibly secure new positions and we have a loss to the men who left Bisbee in obeyance of the strike order of the local federation Of miners, of $40, 900. The men who obeyed the strike order are not the only ones who have sus- tained heavy loss as result of the strike; every business man in Bis bee has been seriously damaged by loss of trade. The companies have been put to inconvenience and loss during the time it required to get oth- CT men in the mines, but the loss to the companies fell upon shoulders able to bear it; the business men will soon have better business than ever before which will bring the opportunity to recoup their losses, but the men who were ordered on a strike, with no oth- CT means of earning money except by toll. will not be able to make good their losses in wages. That is gone. It is always the case in strikes; the heaviest losers are the men who de- pend upon their daily wage for the comforts of life. Their cause may be ever so just, the result remains the same, if the strike be long drawn out and determinedly resisted by the em- pIoyers.
 The strike ordered in Bisbee was doomed to failure and heavy loss to the men who were ordered from the mines because 1t was based more on individual spite and hatred than upon any consideration for the condition of labor in Bisbee. It had no just griev- ance to present for public approval and for this reason public sentiment gave no -sunsor to the strikers. So

The republican party tendency at the present time is in the direction of refusing the states the right to en, act their own legislation and to gov ern themselves.

If the republican party of Arizona has any gratitude. which is a very doubtful proposition, Foraker will have smooth sledding in this territory. Either Foraker or Bryan, or any other democrat, would mean statehood for Arizona. Arizona people can afford to swallow a few national corporation pills to get into the union
Bisbee daily review., 1907-05-23

Republican politicians and news papers are very busy just now giving advice to democrats; republicans de- clare that the democrats must discard Bryan before they can hope to win a national victory. No doubt the repub- licans would like to see the demo- cratic party without Bryan in 1908.

ANOTHER SALE OF
EQUITY TOBACCO.

The executive committee of the Green
River district, A. S. of E., has made
another big sale of tobacco, consisting
of all the 1905 trash put up in Ohio
county and at Livermore, Mclean
county. This information was given
out Saturday on reliable authority,
though the sale has not yet been of
ficially announced
The price paid was S6.75 hundred,
probably the best price that has been
paid this year for any considerable
quantity of Green river trash The
name of the purchaser is not known.
The deal was closed through the Louis
vile Warehouse company, where the
tobacco has been stored for several
months past.
The sale of such large quantity of
tobacco is a good start in the way of
disposing of the 1905 crop. A member
of the district committee states that
deals are pending for the sale of 1905
tobacco in Daviess and other counties
of the district. No trouble is antici-
pated in disposing of all 1905 tobacco at
good prices. -Owensboro Messenger.

STORY
OF ALOST WATCH.

A Dover telegram, dated Friday af-
ternoon, contains the following remark
able story of the loss and subsequent
finding of a stem-winding watch by the
sheriff of the county. Many curious
and hard-to-believe stories are told
nowadays, but this one is more than
conditioned to hold its own with any
that have been reported in the papers,
The following is the sum and substance
of the telegram;
SHERIFF Turner is showing as his
Christmas present a stem-wlnding case
watch that he claims has a history un-
matched by any other watch in Tennes-
see, and doubts if there is another like
it in the whole country. In December,
1905, while hunting in the 'coaling' he
lost the watch, and though he searched
carefully for it, was unable to find it.
He gave it up for lost, and had forgot
ten all about it. Last week Logan Nc
Craw and Alex. Holiday went rabbit
hunting in the "coaling, and, raising a
rabbit, McCraw fired and missed, then
Holiday fired just as the rabbit ran into
a hole and killed it. McCraw ran
hastily to the hole, put his hand in and
pulled out the rabbit, and was surprised
to see something shining at the mouth
of the hole. He stopped over and
picked UP the sheriff's watch and yelled
BY Jacks when he heard it ticking,
and both were astonished when the
watch was opened to find it was within
half minute of the correct time by
their watches. They then looked at
the rabbit and the secret was out, for
there on its belly the fur had been rub
bed off in place that exactly fitted the
stem of the watch, showing that the
rabbit had kept it wound up by rubbing
against the stem as it went in and out
of the hole. The sheriff will not tell
the make of the watch, only saying it is
rabbit watch. p"
