AMUSEMENT NOTES.
"0ver Night" Coming to Barre Opera
House Saturday, Dec. 2.


It took bright young mind with
brilliant thoughts, a rough diamond, in
the form of comedy, backed by an as
tute manager, quick to recognize a good
thing and with the courage of his own
convictions as the component parts, to
produce and develop one of the greatest
comedy successes Of the present century,
as "0yer Night" which comes to the
opera house on Saturday, Dec. 2, matinee
and night, has proven itself to be. So
great was its success in New York that
it ran for nine months, and critical Bos-
ton, always ready to welcome anything
of merit, paid tribute to it for over two
months, and in that limited time sent
nearly one hundred and fifty thousand
of her sons and daughters to pass iudg-
ment upon it; and the cry went forth
that il was clean, wholesome, trimming
over with pure, unadulterated fun and
brightly, erispy comedy lines.
The plot-did you sayi Well, not
much to speak of--iust what is liable
TO happen to any of us-just two young
men and two young women get married;
nothing strange in that, it happens every
day. They went on their honeymoons,
got mixed up steamboat landing and for
three long and hilariously funny acts
they work at cross-purposes, until the
good genius of the playwright pours oil
of sympathy on the suffering disabilities
~ his audiancp and bringa all IN a
happy and very understandable end.

YOUNG HUNTER SHOT.
Nashua Youth Dead as Result of Acct

Nashua, N. H.. Nov. 22.-Frank Bas-
sett, the l4-year-old son of Joseph E.
Bassett, a carriage painter living at 9

grade in the Webster school, and after
school the lads started for the hunting
grounds They were going through the
woods, Martin behind, when he studied
his toe and, falling, the gun was dis
charged. The load took effect in the
back of his young companions head.
Martin ran back to the village and
told Bassett's father. The latter has
tened to the spot. but his son died before
he could get him home. The youth
leaves, besides his parents, two sisters,
OberIin Bassett and Armeda Bassett.

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-09-02
BY JOHN c. OSBORN,

Rumors are persistent Of an I'm
pending railroad strike of unusual
magnitude. Coming SO quickly after
the troubles IN England It causes
more apprehension. Some knowledge
of the questions involved will be USE
full and now is a good time TO study
them before the controversy assumes
an acute form. l quote from a wide
ly published statement of the vice
president and general manager Of the
Southern Pacific road, giving the de-
manGs OF the men and the companys
objections.
The gist OF the controversy Is the
open shop which, however, comes
in a new form. The open shop means
now not individuals only but organ
izations as well. The company rec
ognizes the right of its employees to
organize and is willing to confer with
representatives of an organization of
any class of its employees. The men,
having learned that in union there is
strength, have Joined their unions
into one large federation embracing
all the employees in all departments.
Thus II a crisis comes, and strike
is called, it can take out every man
on the entire system.
The company refuses to recognize
the federation for the evident reason
that such a strike would seriously
impair the service and prevent the
company from performing its obliga-

and educational objects are excellent,
but they will not hold together an or
ganization whose members have a
sense of injustice, or of imperfectly
rewarded toll.
When once the relations between
the companies and the employees are
correctly adjusted the other questions
will be easy. The occasional en-
pIoyment of a non-union man will be
unimportant, as strike breaking is
no longer a profession, and the men
will naturally wish to belong TO the
unions. Ineffective or disobedient
employees must be discharged. But
such men have the right accorded to
the vilest criminal-an impartial
hearing before an impartial tribunal,
and if pentitent and willing to re-
form should be given another chance.
Arbitrary dismissals for the good of
the service" are often causes for in
justice, and the men are right in pro-
testing.
When business falls of and fewer
men are needed, wholesale discharges
are customary. A better plan is it to
retain the men and divide up the
work among them in equal shares.
Give those employees on a time basis
fewer hours, to those paid by the mile
their runs in regular rotation, to the
piece workers apportion the work
equally. OF course this means re-
duced earnings for the whole force,
and division Of the loss among them
all. When business improves the
men are ready to take care of it with
increased pay Any not wishing to
accept these conditions can drop out.
Candidates for admission to the
service should certainly demonstrate

In addition to being compelled to

Gently been made the victims of that
administration economy" about
which the presidents press bureau
has been making so much noise. AS
it is their pay is inadequate, consid-
ering the amount of work they do,
and the tremendous risks they run,
but notwithstanding this the word
went out not long ago to take up the
slack in the railway mail service.
Taking up the slack in their case
meant that many of the clerks had
to work longer hours and extend their
runs. Fewer extra men were sent
out, all the work being left to the
regular clerks, and this arrangement
proved so hard on the clerks that
many of them were forced by illness
to remain away from work.
In a desperate effort to find relief
from conditions which were rapidly
becoming intolerable many OF the
clerks sought membership in labor or
ganizations. Then began a new reign
of terror in the department. The
word went out from Hitchcocks
office that affliation with unions
would not be tolerated. The men
have been intimidated and threaten
ed with the loss of their work; in
some instances actually discharged

The Rights of Working Men

tons to the public. 1t is pointed out
that in such a condition some little
local affair on a branch line in a
sparsely settled country might tie up
the whole system, a result entirely
out of proportion to the cause.
But what is the object of the or
ganization? Plainly TO protect those
who are unable to take care Of them
selves. In the case supposed the sec
ton men or switchmen on the little
branch road have a grievance. They
complain. No attention is paid to it,
They strike Their places are filled
at once and everything goes on as
before, only they are out of a job
Or If the iremen on the whole sys-
tenn strike, traffic is delayed, but ar
rangements are soon made to re-
sumo and the strikers lose. If a
strike is ever justifiable the men
must be in a position to win, and
the weakest point in the line must
receive united support.
Besides, the railroad companies
have compact organization of their
own, not to be sure in visible form,
but in actual reality and act together
when their vital interests are con-
cerned as now. Why do they deny to
their employees the privilege they
claim for themselves?
But are strikes ever justifiable? So
long as labor has no efficient remedy
for injustice, or protection against
oppression, the strike is its only
weapon. am no believer in yio-
lence. I believe the time is coming,
| would like to see it, when courts
of arbitration established by the su-
preme law of the land, shall hear and
decide according to equity, all ques-
tons between labor and capital. That
time will come when We have had our
fill of strife, when we are clear tired
out of our present wasteful, brutal,
savage methods. Sometimes i think
the hotter the conflict the sooner it
not have industrial peace till We are
weary. even deathly sick, of war.
Therefore ] hold that the men are
right in this demand. 1t simply
means that the weakest brother, the
most humble, has his rights, and they
shall be respected.
Mr.. Kruttschnitt of the Southern
Pacific thinks the proposed arrange
ment will encourage the men on the
little branch lines to make unreas-
enable demands. 1t will certainly
secure for them a respectful hearing,
which hope is not his real objection.
The reasonableness of the demand
must be determined by impartial ar
bitraters- Neither of the interested
parties can safely be permitted to de-
eide. Also, it goes without saying
that the arbiters must not be men
whose fortunes are invested in rail
road securities.
1t is sometimes said that capital
has no objections TO labor unions so
long as they confne themselves to
legitimate purposes. Usually those
Legitimate" purposes are such as
produces no material benefit. Social
