JOHN MITCHELL
STRIKES BACK
Flags Manufacturers President
For Speech on Labor.
SAY THEY ADVOCATE VIOLENCE

Labor Leader Declares ManUfseturers'
Association Prste About Law and
Order and Advocate Anarchy and
Suggest the Cannon TO Dlsperse
Worklnamsn.
New York. May a6.-The recent ar
raignmsnt OF organized labor made
here In the course Of his speech OF ac-
ceptance by John Kirby. OF DAYTON.
o.. the newly elected president Of the
National Association Of Manufactur-
ers. is made the subject Of a condem-
natory article by John Mitchell. former
president Of the United Mine Work
ers of America. published in the cur
rent issue OF the National Civic Fed
Grafton Review.
Mr.. Mitchell quotes Mr.. Kirby as
saying that he had been elected TO the
presidency of the National Associa-
ton OF Manufacturers. not on account
OF his ability or on account OF his
national reputation. but because the
members OF the association knew
where he stood on the labor ques-
ton.
From this parallel Mr. Mitchell de-
duces that the only truthful and sane
declaration made by the newly chosen
spokesman OF the National AssOcia-
uoa OF Manufacturers Is that in which
he says: I have not been elected as
your president on account OF my abil-
tty'"
"ParadOxical as Il may appear. -
concludes Mr.. Mitchell. the represen-
tatives Of this employers association
In one breath decry and denounce
what they term class divisions and
class hatreds.' and in the next breath
malign and berate their fellow citizens
who are workingmen. and all other
groups In society In sympathy with
the legitimate purposes and high
ideals Of the labor movement They
claim and proclaim the right and ne
cessity OF organization among en-
ployers. yet deny to worlingmen the
right OF Organization and combina-
ton They pirate about law and order.
yet advocate violence and anarchy;
they suggest the use Of the cannon as
means OF dispensing the working
men: they mailgn and traduce the
great majority OF the employers OF
labor who refuse TO Join them In car
rytng forward their unholy and IN
American designs TO destroy the or
ganiEed labor movement: and 70 cap
the climax OF their Inconsistency they
impugn the motives and question the
intelligence OF the religious. educa-
uonal and philanthropic institutions OF
our country simply because these In
stitutions have opened their doors to
the organized labor movement and
have listened respectfully TO the
claims made IN behalf OF the working
men and women whose brain and
Drawn have contributed in no small
degree to the commercial. intellectual
and moral supremacy OF the nation
How much better would II be for
themselves. how much more would Il
contribute to the honor and glory OF
our common country. II these gentle
men OF the National Association OF
Manufacturers would examine with
open minds and Intelligent discern
ment the real purpose. policy and
philosophy OF the American labor
movement"

FoR BENEFIT on FARMERs

State Commissioner of agriculture
g. w. Koiner and the Maryland,
Delaware and Virginia Railway Com
pany deserve special communication
for the admirable schedule arranged
for holding farmers Institutes at I'M
postant points along the Kappa
hammock river, mention OF which Is
made elsewhere I'm these columns.
The movement Is In accord with the
spirit OF progress which IS marking
the development OF Virginia todsy.
Agriculture Is q science, and is is be-
ing conducted more and more as a
science by Virginia farmers every
year, chiefly through the influence OF
she institutes which are being held
throughout the State.
Recognizing the Importance % the
movement, public service corpora
tions have In a measure lent their
assistance TO the eommendable work
Of furnishing transportation so the
lecturers, and have thereby aided
very materially In the work.
The Rappahannock Valley is one
OF the richest farming sections OF the
State, and the Maryland, Delaware
and Virginia Railsay Company
should and no doubt will receive the
hearty thanks OF the farmers OF this
section for the assistance it is a.
fording them In this connection. We
hope the farmers will take advan-
tage of this opportunity and turn
Out in large numbers.
The cOmpany's steamer "Grati-
tude", with Commissioner OF Agri-
culture Koiner and his associates,
will leave fredericksburg on Friday,
June 4sh, at 6 a. m, and the party
will be personally conducted by Mr..
T. Murdoch, general passenger and
freight agent OF the company, and
Mr.. W. ID. Scott, she Fredericksburg
agent Of the line.
