Work for "Foreiqners."

A Pittsburg Newspaper man. testi-

day. said the American Sheet and
Tinplate company a subsidiary Of the
United States Steel corporation. has
been guilty of giving employment O."
Foreigners Just what sort al NOR
al turpitude attaches to that fact il
is a trifle difficult to understand: hut
The Republican happens to have con-
siderable information about the =
fairs Of the tinplate business in this
country and it agrees with the stat
ment that foreigners have been
hired quite extensively by the Ameri-
can Sheet and Tinplate company.
But it is also true that not nearly
50 many foreigners" are employed as
formerly. and this is the way L has
come about
Formerly all the most important
work in the manufacture of tin plates
by people who came here from Wales.
They did this work because Ameri-
cans didn't know how and had never
had chance to learn. But early in
May. 1909. the tinworkers declared 4
strike. 1t wasn't a wage strike but
a strike for recognition Of the Anal
gamated Association Of Iron. Steel
and Tinworkers. The strike lasted
fourteen months and the Amalgamate1
association lost.
In the meantime the company start
ed the mills. The foreigners had
abandoned the rolls and the other i'm
pOrtant jobs. many of which pay As
much as ten and fifteen dollars day
and some even more than that. and
the company put Americans in their
places. II was found the jobs were
not nearly so hard as had been
thought Many men became compe-
tent rollers in three months. Other
jobs known as turner's and roughers
were learned in a much shorter time
And when these Americans had learn
ed the work il was found that just
as good quality of tin was being
turned out as had ever been. And
these men got precisely the same

From the standpoint of party ad-

even for the first governor of this
state-and Will add wonderfully -

kind. They haven't listened to The

OF the chief executive Of this SOW

argument a mite

point is the governor should not

affectation that compels him to use

Then there is the appointment q
Mr. Winsor To- the position OF private

Winsor is a progressive" II is all

thing is To- get the letters written.
Then. after all. the office Of gov

seriousness with which it has been
invested.
