LiSbon.-An active, good hUmore0,
very vital young man is the impress
sion given by Dom Manuel, the 49,
year-old king of Portugal, who is ex-
pected to visit the United Kingdom in
November.
The comprehensive and strenuous
education considered necessary for
sis exalted position has not dulled the
ready wit which he has inherited
from Queen Amelia, and he also
shares her open air tastes, spending a
good part of his leisure in tennis,
fencing and riding. He has. moreover,
artistic accomplishments, being both
a MUSICIAN and a painter.
Before the tragic events that
brought him to the throne. he was be
ing educated as sailor, and threw
himself eagerly into the study OF mod
ern science and mathematics and the
technicalities of naval construction
Two years ago., therefore, his out
look on life was rather the sailors
than the kings, and strenuous course
of study was mapped out for him. 1t

MILLIONS vs.. MANHOOD

q
Editorial fro mthe Sharon Telegraph.
tTEis paper. is not a labor. papef,
but is a regular daily that has the
coura ge to tell tie truth as it finds
it. Respectfully referred to the
Wheeling dailies, and the Business
and Ministerial Associations
A sad and grim spectacle is being
presented South Sharon, New
Castle and many other places where
there are plants owned by the Am
erican Sheet and Tin Plate Company
Sad, grim and pftiful indeed is this
spectacle Of thousands Of honest,
handwriting men fighting for a
principle and arrayed against. a giant
corporation with hundreds of millions
of dollars and ready and willing to
use some of these, millions to crush
out the manhood and the spirit Of
these men who believe that they have
right to defend and who are will
ng to suffer in defending it.
1t is al case of manhood against
millions, and as is always the rule in
such cases the sympathy of the great
mass of the people is with the man
hood. For years these men have been
working literally by the sweat OF
their brow to- help earn the millions
for the giant corporation that is now
,errayed against them at all hazards.
There is no complaint against these
men or the manner in which they
have worked for the corporation.
There could be no complaint, for their
york has been of the highest class,
and as a body they are good, clean
cut citizens, well thought of in the
communities in which they live.
These me- believe that they have the
right to have an organization as a
means of protection. The corpora
ton denies them this right, denies
them any right except Ito work when
and where the company pleases and.
for whatever wage it chooses to pay.
+ The striking tin plate workers have
proved their manhood by their actions
since the strike started. In the his
tory Of American industry there has
never been a strike in which the men
affected have given a better example
of steadfastness of purpose and free
dom from violence than have the tin
plate workers Of today. Forced, as
they have been, to see hordes of ne
groes, for eigners and poor spirited so
called Americans taken into the mills
to do the work they should rightly be
doing, and which by their hard work
in the past they have earned the
right to do, they have acted like the
law-abiding citizens they are, and by
so doing, won the respect and sym
pathy of all-except the heads of the
great corporation which is determined
by the might of its millions to force
them into submission on its own
terms. A sad and grim spectacle truly
