Industries Most Afected.

The&greatest number of strikes in
any one industry was in the building
trades, which had 26.O2 per cent. of all
strikes and 1888 per cent. of all the
establishments involved in strikes. In
the coal and coke industry were sos
per cent. of ali strikes and 9.S9 per
cent. of all establishments involved in
strikes. This latter industry had
more strikers and more employees
thrown out of work by strikes than
any other industry. The building
trades were second in order in both
these respects. with the mems clothing
and iron and steel industries next. In
lockcuts the building trades led all
other industries, having 1649 per cent.
of all lockouts, more than one half of
all the establishments involved, and
about 80 per cent. of all the employees
locked out and of persons thrown out
of work.
The daily morning journal and courier. [volume] (New Haven, Conn.) 1894-1907, 1907-07-27
Duration of Strikes.

The average duration of strikes per
establishment was 25.4 days and of
lockouts S4.6 days, The strike or
lockout does not, Of course, always re-
suit in the closing of the establish
anent involved, but 61.38 per cent. of
all establishments involved, or III, 343
were closed an average of POI days. In
lockouts 6S.25 per cent of all establish
ments involved, or 1868, were closed
an4average of 40.4 days.

States Most Affected.

Employees and employers who are
concentrated in the great industrial
States are more prone to engage in
strikes and lockouts than those
throughout the country generally.
Thus the five Statesmen York, Penn
svlyania, Illinois, Massachusetts, and
Ohio-had 63.46 per cent. of all strikes
and Sc. IA per cent. of all the establish
ments involved in strikes, 1922 per
rent. of all Iockouts and 1893 per cent.
of ali establishments involved in lock-
outs. although these five States had
only 45 per cent. of all the manufac-
turing establishments of the country in
1900. =

Settlement of Strikes.

Within recent years the effort to
bring about the settlement of strikes
and lockouts by joint agreement of or
CARNATIONS representing the parties or
by arbitration by a disinterested third
party has been attended with consid-
cradle success. During the ive-year
period 1901 to 1906, 5.75 per cent. of all
strikes and 1920 per cent. of all lock-
outs were settled by joint agreement
and 100 per cent. of the strikes and
2.0S per cent. of the lockouts were set
tied by arbitration. These methods of
settlement have been thus far largely
confined to few industries, practically
one-half of the strikes and tWo-thirds
of the lockouts settled by joint agree
n.ent being in the building trades, and
about IA per cent. in the coal and coke
industry OF the strikes settled by ar
bitration more than one-fourth were
in the building trades and IS per cent.
in the coal and coke industry. These
figures do not fully represent the pro-
gress of these methods of settlement Of
disputes between employer and en-
ploye, for both methods are being used
to a large and increasing extent to set
tie disputes before a stoppage of work
occurs.

Gated by the fact that of the total
number of strikes in twenty-five years
$3.50 per cent. were ordered by labor
organizations. and the strikes so
ordered included 90.34 per cent of all
establishments involved in strikes, 1859
per cent. of all strikers, and 77,45 per
cent. Of all employees thrown out of
work in establishments involved in

Employe. Thrown out Of work.

Because of the dependence, of one oc-
cupation upon another in the same es-
tablishment, the stopping of work by
strikers and employees locked out in
one or more occupations often makes
it impossible for fellow-employes in
other occupations to continue work.
The total number of employees, includ-
ing strikers, thrown out Of work by
strikes was S,7O3S24, and the number
thrown out of work by lockouts was
S25,610, or a total of 9,529,434 employees
thrown out Of work in the establish
merits Immediately involved in strikes
and lockouts. These figures do not
include any employees thrown out of
work in the many establishments not
immediately involved in the strikes
and lodkouts, but dependent in one
way or another on the establishments
involved, az for material, power, etc.
Over 80 per cent. Of all those thrown
out of work by strikes were males and
only 943 per cent. females. In lock-
outs S4.18 per cent. of the employees
thrown out of work were males and
1852 per cent. females.

of the case by counsel, the case
went to the jury at a late hour on
the night OF Wednesday, Nov, g.,
1907.
This case has perhaps aroused
more interest than any case ever
tried in Quay County, and at the
closing argument by Judge J. E.
Wharton Wednesday night the
Court room was crowded to over
flowing.
The greater part of the week has
been occupied in the trial of this
case, and little other business has
been transacted by the court.
The criminal docket was not
finished up and no civil cases were
reached at this term. A great
amount of civil business must go
over until the next term of the
Court for QUAY county.
AS we go to press the Jury is still
out (Friday, 4 p. m.) Court will
adjourn tonight.

WEEKS GRIND
OF THE COVRT

The case of the Territory of New
Mexico VS. Hardwick came on to be
heard Immediately after the trial OF
the Estes case and has occupied
the greater part of the week. The
selection of the jury was begun
last FRIDAY and was not completed
until Monday night.
The trial has been most intense
ly interesting, on account of the
parties being we'll known in Tu-
cumcari, and on account of the
ability OF the counsel both for the
Territory and defense, and from
the first of the taking of the testi-
mony the court room has been
crowded.
Hon. Edward II. Wright, dis
trict attorney, assisted by Judge
j. E. Wharton OF Alamogordo
prosecuted this case in behalf of
the Territory, and Hon. George
Culp Of Gainesville, Texas, Judge
Byron Sherry and Attorney w. J.
Hittson of this city, appeared in
behalf Of the defendant.
This case is too we'll known to
the citizens Of Tucumcari to need
reviewing. The testimony of the
happenings of the facts is so con-
flicting and confusing that it has
proven no little task for the Jury to
unravel and disentangle the real
facts in the case.
After several hours in argument

Labor And Capital.

Steps are being taken by all the
large industrial corporations to elm
mate the antagonism between labor
aud capital. which has been such a
dreaded monster in the past. This
movement is based upon the recogni-
tion Of two facts-6rst. that the
interests Of employers and employees
are identical second, that it l. the
duty of rhe employer to interest him
self 10 his employees and to make
everything as favorable to harmony
and good feeling a. possible. The
details Of such a plan are many.
Already the General Electric Com
pany. working towards this end, has
established restaurants at its plants
at Schenectady, n, Y, aud Lynn,
Mass, where the employees are able
to obtain food Of the best quality at
minimum prices. No futher profit
Is desired than is absolutely neeessa-
ry for the maintenance Of the restau-
rant. A number Of the largest
corp oratiOns Of this country also ex-
tend a helping hand to their employ
ees who desire homes by making
small loans on the most liberal and
equitable terms.
Special attention is paid to the
education Of the prentice that he
may be the very best of skilled
workman. The improvement of san
itary conditions and the adoption Of
many conveniences aud safeguards
about factory buildings shows that
the employer is anxious to better the
conditions and promote harmoniou
feeling between labor and capital.
