not to consider that they have
any further claim to the employ
ment the employer may have to
offer, and may not interfere in
any manner with the proceedings
of any employer to re-man his
work, the ousted employees to be
subject to the civil and criminal
law of the land for any violation.
Should the employer except to
the ruling of the board of arbi
tration, he may notify his help
of his deciscion, and dis
charge his entire force on pay
ment of ANY wages due them,
and proceed to replace such dis
charged help to suit himself.
Neither side could object to
the airing of the merits of it's
contention without arousing
suspicion as to it's honesty.
Strikes that lead to damage to
property and to violence are not
so much the result of disagree
ment as to hours and wages as
they are of stubborness on the
part of one side, or the other, or
both sides of the question.
In the case of the Pressed
Steel Car Company, thousands of
dollars of loss in wages and prop
erty has already taken place, to
say nothing of the expense to the
State of Pennsylvania. The plan
outlined above would have saved
it all.

THE FORESTS OF
NORTH CAROLINA.

We are in receipt OF FresS
Bulletin No. 80, of the N. e..
Geological and Economic Survey
outlining a purpose which this
Department, together with the
United States Forest Service,
has in view and is now planning
to put into effect in this State,
looking to the possibilities of &C.
onomizing in the use OF what
ever timber is cut. For instance,
instead of allowing the smaller
parts of a tree cut for bridge
timber to go to waste, it will en-
deavor to have the top used in
the industries capable Of using
the smaller dimensions, instead
of allowing this to go to waste
and cutting more and smaller
trees for the latter purpose.
This is a laudable undertaking
and has our full endorsement.
It is a shame and an outrage the
way our forests have been and
are yet being wantonly destroy
ed for the sake of the immediate
dollar, with no thought Of their
future worth and possibilities.
The forests of North Carolina
are worth as much, OF more,
than the land they stand on.
Remove them, and what scenery
and climatic advantages we now
have will go with them, leaving
a country little better than a de-
sert.
In any effort along the line of
preservation of our natural re-
sources these gentlemen deserve
a liberal support, and we look
forward to the accomplishment
of much good from the publicity
this work will give to the ulti-
mate results of either good or
bad management of our forests.

unless the facts governing the
case are so plain as to admit no
doubt as to who is right and who
is wrong. Also it is highly prob
able that after a dispute of this
nature has gone so far as to re-
suit in blood shed, both sides
have committed errors of dis
erection and overstepped what
may be called, fer want of bet
ter name, the line of fairness.
1t does look as if the time had
arrived when some general So
luton might be suggested that
would be applicable to these re-
curing occurrences when proper
ty and business, and after life,
are sacrificed. A great many
schemes have been tried, but
none, so far, have reached a.
point which could be counted on
to arrest the tendencies until
after great loss had been effect
ed. The employer has rights, so
does the employe-but each, no
doubt, has exaggerated ideas
of what these rights are. Work
men have a right to organize,
and to set a figure as the price of
their toll; a right to say how
many hours they will work. But
no employing concern is compell-
ed to employ the members of
any organization. This is a mat
ter of choice. If a concern is
compelled to operate its plant
for a longer period each day
than the members of an organi-
zation care to work, clearly they
have a right to employ laborers
who do not belong to the organi-
zation. On the other hand, if
the organization does not care
to accept the terms offered by
any employer, such organization
need not do so. The idea of
force or coercion by either party
is contrary to all laws of equity
and to the principles of our
government. Force of arms
never settles disputes permanent
ly, nor does it ever settle it fairly
to all parties concerned. Older
labor organizations realize this,
and rarely does a strike among
their ranks lead to anything
than a cessation of work
and peaceful argument among
the would-be strike breakers by
the members of the striking
party. When it does amount to
more than this, the trouble can
usually be traced to some over
jealous or erratic member, mex
perienced in the principals of
cause and effect. With the
younger and less experienced or
CARNATIONS, the proportion of
violence is increased just in pro-
proportion is it's inexperience is
greater or less. What is needed
most is a scheme that will set
tie these troubles before they
reach the acute stage. Some
such proposition suggests itself
to us. which, so far as we can
ascertain, has not yet been tried.
1t is this:
Let each state add to it's cleo
ton officers a state board of
arbitration, of five members,
with the usual organization of
chairman, etc; two to be employ
ers, two wage-earners and one a
professional man, to be paid for

James ?. AIKEN.

the newly made grave of j. T.
Aiken, who met a tragic death
in a fearful accident at Brevard
on last Thursday morning, the
details of which were published
in these columns the day follow
ing. The writer has known
Jim" Aiken, intimately for
fifteen years and does not hest
tate to say he was an honest,
industrious negro and one who
was admired by all who knew
him, both white and colored.
He attended to his own business
and did not interfere with other
peoples affairs; was polite and
respectful to his white friends,
obliging, industrious and true to
every trust reposed in him. In
the opinion of the editor of this
newspaper, Jim" Aiken was
the best negro in the United
States. He possessed many no.
BILE traits of character and mem
bers of his race would profit by
emulating the example Of their
deceased friend in their contact
with events of future life.
Jim Aiken knew his place
and was perfectly content with
his lot in life. Kind-hearted,
accommodating, industrious, he
was ever ready to assist those
in distress and here is one color
ed man who left the world bet
ter than he found it. And he
helped to make it so.
Jim" eschewed.politics years
ago and was one negro who vot-
ed for his friends, regardless of
their political affiliations. He
was prominent in the church
and society circles of the colored
people and an enthusiastic sup
porter of fraternal orders and
all other objects looking to the
betterment of his race. Bre-
ward will miss him.
The funeral services over the
remains of this esteemed colored
man were conducted from the
First Baptist church (white) of
Brevard and, as a mark of re-
spect to his memory, the bust
ness houses of the town were
closed during the hour of SER
vice. This was fitting and in
dicates the feeling entertained
by Southern white people for a
negro who shows himself worthy.
Referring to his death the
Brevard News says:
"The death of James P. Aiken
isa distinct loss to our town. He
was the most widely known
colored man in Western North
Carolina; was a successful and
enterprising business man
whose store on Main street is
well patronized; he was a mem
Of the Baptist church and several
benevolent socities; was a mem
Der of the Fire Department
while VIM. E. Breese, Jr., was
chief, and was always among the
first to respond to>the call of the

workers at every fire in the his

every way a responsible negro
henest, energetic, working
and reliable. He had a wide in

In his mountain section, besides
having many friends among the
the white people, all Of whom

sudden death"

Cherry. H.. Nov 25-Details of a meeting held today between the state mining board, Battalion Chief Me- Donald of the Chicago fire depart ment. and ". W. Taylor. general manager of the Chicago.

Battalion Chief McDonald after an inspection of the work of throwing water in the east bottom of the mine for more than a week. advised the mine inspectors and rep .resentatives of the coal company that the water was not reaching the fire.
 The bodies of the known dead in that vein are already inaccessible be- cause of the quantity of water al- ready thrown into the mine.
 Williams or the Urbana rescue sta ton reported that the fire had ex- tended to the coal pillars. forming dangerous gases and making perilOus the rescuers' work.
 It was unanimously agreed that the only thing to make possible the ulti- mate recovery of the bodies was to seal up both the main shaft and the air shaft. and keep them sealed until the fire was smothered.

ONE DINNER IN PEACE

The President Ate It Without Having

Washington, Nov 25.-Sated with possum dinners and elaborate ban quets he was forced to face in his re- cent trip from coast to coast, President Taft sat down this afternoon to a family Thanksgiving dinner. The piece de resistance was mammoth turkey that had been raised on a Rhode Is- land farm and looked almost noun tainous in its proportions.
 Mir. Taft smiled genially when des- ert was served. Thank goodness" he sighed happily. i've had a dinner at which I haven't been compelled to make speeches and where no reception committee lurked in the background. I've enjoyed food-real food-and l haven't had to work to get it.
 The president had no guests: only the Taft family were present. includ- ing Mrs. Laughiin. a sister of Mrs. Taft. Miss Helen and Charley Taft had come from their schools. When dinner was over and the family had spent some time in the drawing room. MT Taft called Attorney General Wickersham on the telephone and he arrived in half an hour.

 During the intermission there was loud cheering for both teams Among to the grandstand and bleachers were Brooks. GoeDel, Hawley and Foster Rockwell. the coach.

Prescott kicked off: Brooks advanced the ball 10 yards: the Coyotes made small gains on two downs and Goebel kicked Prescott tried a forward pass that fail ed to connect and lost 15 yards.
