when crushed out of their sphere are
unable to meet the situation when they
fall into the ranks of labor, as they are
unskilled; besides their spirit has been
broken, so they go down to the very bot
tom of society. These other two great
stratas OF society turning in different
directions, and as the middle class has
always stood between them, it is ground
out, and as they get closer and closer to
Sether the friction is more pronounced,
and the day is not far in the future
when they will come together. The top
strata, like the top mill stone, is the
softer and smaller, the neither stone is
the largest and hardest When these
two factions come in direct contact with
one another the upper will either cx-
plode or be quickly worn away. The
signs of the times point in this dircc-
tIon, the next few years will see the
lines drawn tmore distinctly between
capital and labor, and by the year 1916
it Will be the sole issue, SO it behooves
all good citizens to study the questions
of the day so as to be able to meet this
great issue ntelligently.

A LIE OUT OF
THE WHOLE CLOTH

This morning the entire force of men
started work at the Kelly axe factory.
For several weeks there has been some
trouble between the workers, and there
has been little work except in the
hatchet department for three months
The differences were settled Saturday
and the men resumed work in their re-
spective places. This week large num-
ter will he occupied in putting in the
new machinery in the polishing room
for a larger working capacity than be-
fore.-Erening Mail.
The above bare-faced lie was clipped
from the Dixon Erening Nail of Feb
18th. We dare say Kelly gave the Mail
this information, but it seems strange
that the Mail should have been so quick
publish anything at ..le request of the
locked-out bitt-drawers. Mr.. Dixon has
his muzzled press under good control. 1t
can bark at the command of the master
class, but when the workingmen request
to be heard it shuts up like a muzzled
pup. The Mail, that claims to be a
reputable paper, knew when they
printed the above lie it was not SO. They
could have found out the true condition
in five minutes There are about eighty
eight men who belong to the Bit Draw
ers' Union, and out of the eighty-eight
only three returned to work. The lock-
out is still in effect and will continue
until the Kelly Axe Manufacturing Co.
recognizes the union. Mr.. Kelly had to
pay these men who returned to work
fifty dollars each, and is Offering this
turn, but even for this bribe he was
only able to secure three men who were
traitors enough to betray their fellow
The labor argus. [volume] (Charleston, W. Va.) 1906-1915, 1911-02-16

The farmer, who was once an indie
pendent and sovereign citizen, is now alb
solutely at the mercy of these great
combinations of capital, known as trusts.
They not only set the price on the farm
product, but also set the price on the
necessities the farmer has to buy The
farmer has to pay to the railroad trust
to get his products to the market, and
then in many cases has to pay a COM
mission for selling his products at u
price kept by the different trusts, and
when he exchanges his products for
money and then begins to buy the arti-
cles he needs, again he must give the
trust another rake-oT. If he buy shoes.
the shoe trust gets him; if clothing, the
clothing trust; if sugar, the sugar
trust; if oil, the oil trust, and so on.
And then to get his purchases back to
the farm he must again donate to the
railroad trust. Is there any wonder
the farmers have to work from sun to
sun, year in and year out, to make a
bare living? No longer can he boast of
his independence, for he is just as de-
pendent on the whms of the capitalist
as the commonest laborer. Daily the
farmers are falling from the ranks of
the middle class. Then we have the
skilled mechanic that once felt secure in
the knowledge of his craft and was able
tn demand good wages for that knowl-
edge and skill, but to-day in most every
craft we see the machine taking the
Place Of the mechanic. We see the ma
chine operated by woman or a child
turning out the same amount of fin
ished product as twenty skilled and able
men turned out few years back
Now the question arises, what be-
comes of these people that were spoken
OF as that great middle class? Society
One strata, the top strata, is composed
of the very rich; those who control the
wealth and own the machinery The
bottom strata is composed Of that great
majority of the propertyless class, or
wealth producers, and between these two
stratas is the middle class. AS we said
in the beginning this upper strata repre-
sents the capitalist, the lower the work
ing class, and these two classes inter
csts being opposite are continually at
war with one another, the middle class
caught between them like grist between
the upper and neither stone are being
ground out, few springing into the
upper class, but the majority falling
into the lower class and settling like
dregs to the very bottom of society We
find these wrecks from the middle class
