AS to That "Strike(?)"

Editor News: / saw in your issue
of Feb. 9Th, statement to the Chat.
tanooga Times to the effect that the
miners are out on what they call a
strike, but so far the officials of the
company had not felt the effect of it
and that they had in their employ 1000
men and there output was 1900 tons,
normal output
Now, You see how quick the com
pany officials are to come to the front
with a misrepresentation The truth
of it is that they have in their employ
about 700 miners and their output is
far below his quotations even at its
best In addition to that, instead of
being so-called strike as he said, his
traitor, whom he pays to look after
his part of the union, did tell them of
some II or IA men belonging to the I'M
ion, and despite the fact that the Off
Gals of the company have repeatedly
announced open and above board time
and again and said that they had no
objection to the union, they discharged
the ~ or IA men, who were reported,
and thereupon something like $50 men
quit Now, the company will see a
different state of affairs in case there
should be an issue made to the men by
the officers of the U. M. W. of A. for
q strike. The truth of it is there has
mt been any strike ordered as yet. As
proof of this fact if the public will
just notice-if ever there is strike
ordered the first thing some companies
will do will be to put some fellow out
to do some violence and then holler to
Patterson or some other governor for
the militia to help suppress riot.
Now, when you hear of that you can
bet that there has been a strike order
ed, but until you hear of Hampton and
Roberts calling on Patterson for the
militia you can rest assured that there
is no strike at Tracy

BRYAN CAN'T GET AWAY FROM
HIS SHADOW.

There is famous story about. a
man who sold his shadow to the
devil, and was haunted through life
by the fact that he was different from
all others of human kind in being
without a shadow
Bryan is quite different from the
hero, or victim, of that story. He
wants to get away from his shadow
the shadow of the record he has made
as champion of free silver and a
hfty-cent dollar, of free trade and
abandonment of the Philippines, of
Government ownership of the rail-
ways and other more or less disor-
dered fads and fancies, which have
accumulated from campaign to cam
paign, until now they loom up as the
most remarkable aggregation of po-
litical monstrosities that ever amazed
and appalled, the American people.
Bryan cannot get away from the
shadow of his past, beat the air as he
may. 1t is part of him, and he must
be judged by it as well as by the
later vagaries which he would fain
have considered as his sole political
outfit. There is only one Bryan, and
his shadow will not be buried out of
sight until both Bryan and his past
shall be showed under in November
by the ballots of American freemen
electing Taft and Sherman President
and Vice-President of the United
States.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1908-10-23
BRYAN AND PENSIONS.

In denying what he declares to be
certain erroneous statements with re-
spect to his attitude on the question
of pensions for veteran soldiers and
sailors and their survivors, William
Jennings Bryan defines his position
in these general terms: II favor a
liberal pension policy"
1t is needless to refer to Mr..
Bryan's record on the pension ques-
ton. On this as on other issues
free trade alone eXcepted-his record
is purely negative. His jealous sup
port of the Wilson-Gorman tariff was
in fact the only positive, aggressive
act of his career in Congress, and in
the history of the frightful industrial
ruin which that measure caused Mr..
Bryan's act is designated by broad,
indelible mark i'll black.
Nevertheless, while Mr.. Bryan's
record on pensions is insignificant
and negligible, the record of his party
is properly matter for careful eX-
animation. 1t may be outlined and
its tendency accurately indicated by
a few facts derived from official
sources.
During single period of two years
under the administration of President
Cleveland S694 pensioners were
stricken from the rolls and 23,7O2
pensions were reduced. In the course
OF his two terms President Cleveland
vetoed 524 pension bills, while Presi-
dent Grant during his two terms We
toed only five. Lincoln never vetoed
one, nor did Hay yes, Garfield, Arthur,
Harrison or Mckinley.
1t is worth while to carry the in
quiry a step further. The record in
Congress on fourteen important pen
sion measures prior to 1900 shows
that AT Democrats voted for those
measures, while GAS Democrats voted
against them. On the other hand.
1868 Republicans supported them,
and not single Republican was re-
4 corded against them!
With these facts to guide them the
old soldiers will have no trouble
whatever in determining where their
interests lie in the present campaign.
The Republican party, faithful to the
nations defenders in time of war.
has been their steadfast friend and
protector in time of peace. AS
against its honorable record in that
respect We place the reproachful fact
that the only Democrat to occupy the
White House since the Civil War We
toed 524 pension bills while his
seven Republican predecessors vetoed
only five.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1908-10-23
Mr.. TAFT AN1 THE EDITOR.

When Mr. Taft was a young man
there was scalawag of the name of
Rose running miasmic weekly paper
In Cincinnati. 1t was an unhealthy
sheet, given over to personal attacks,
the printing of scandalous gossip and
thlnly veiled innuendo. Rose was n
lighting editor. He really could fight.
and he stood ready to back IN his
articles with his fists. Also he con-
sorted with bruisers, who constituted
a bodyguard. The town was intim-
1dateda His victims squirmed, but
none of them cared to join issue with
Rose.
Mr.. Taft did it. Rose would have
been all right had he possessed suf-
hcient wisdom to keep the point of
his pen away from Judge Taft. But
he did not. So he was forced to take
the consequences, which came in n,
hurry in the shape of a substantial
apparition of 250 pounds, white-mad,
with locked jaws and a simmer like
that of cold steel flashing from his
blue eyes. Rose weighed nearly as
much as Taft, so no advantage was
taken of him.
Are YOU Rose?" demanded Mr..
Taft. Rose barely had time to wag
his head afilrmatively and insolently
when he was jolted severely on the
jaw, hurled to the street, and, over
borne by the weight of the Nemesis
from Mount Auburn, was forced to
submit to having his face literally
ground into the dirt. IF you'll leave
town tonight III let lou up" offered
Mr.. Taft, when the grinding process
had proceeded as far as he deemed it
should. Rose promised. Mind"
cautioned Taft, Il am coming down
town again tonight, and if you're
still here you'll think that this thing
has only just begun"
Rose did leave that night, and Gin
cinnati saw him no more for
term. He went somewhere to lead a
better life, and did it, SO much so that
when he finally did return to the city
he felt impelled to hunt up Mr.. Taft
and assure him that he harbored no
anifnosity. He also explained one or
two things.
Il knew there was trouble coming
my way when you asked me my
name" said Rose, and l thought l
was ready for you. l was waiting for
you to hit, and then 1 was going to
eat you up because, you know, l could
hight some myself. But you fooled
me. You hit out with your left hand.
An amateur always strikes with his
right first, and I'd figured that you
wouldn't do anything different. But
over came that left of yours and
caught me-"
They say that Mr.. 1aft's roars of
laughter as Rose offered this explana-
ton could be heard over half of Gin
cinnati.
