England's claim of friendliness to
the United States in face of the per-
nicious activity of her Mexican am

The recall of that active gentlemen

try, and show much stronger than
words the friendship so long pro-
fessed. Englands aggressive CONNER
cial policy has been the cause of much

England's friendship seems to have a
very visible string to it.

DO STRIKES PAY?

The strike of the "dockers" in Dub
lin which not only paralyzed industry
in the Irish capital, but brought hun
dreds of families to the brink of STAR
walton, was the occasion of a remark
able demonstration of practical SYM
pathy on the part of English workers.
The steamer Hare was chartered at
Manchester, loaded with food and dis
patched to Ireland to supply the needs
of the hungry dependents of those who
had left off work at the dictation of
the labor leader, Mr.. James Larkin.
His name, by the way, has given rise
to the use of new word, "Larkin-
ism," and his sole weapon against
capital, declares the London Tablet,
consists in wild and revolutionary
appeals" to the populace The Incl
dent of the Hare's dispatch and arri-
val are thus picturesquely related in
Justice London), which processes to
be the organ of Social Democracy:

fish readiness to run risks for
men in another trade" Prof. w. j.
Ashley, Dean of the Faculty of Com
merce, Birmingham University, ac-
knowledges that these are sentiments
in themselves fine and NOBLE" but, he
continues in his article in the London
Daily News:
1T would be too much to expect the
employers affected to see it in this
light; but it is important that the
public should realize this aspect of the
matter Modern condemnation of SYM
pathetic strikes is worse than wasted;
it does but strengthen them in their
principles; and the abused idealist is
apt to become a fanatic.
"In the first place, the sympathetic
strike is usually unsuccessful. And
this for several reasons. Unless the
grievance of the original strikers can
be presented wildly and effectively to
the public, sympathetic strike is
pretty certain to be unpopular. More
over, a sympathetic strike is exceed
ingly difficult to make effective on a
large scale. The less enthusiastic of
the members of the union, and espec-
tally the middle-aged men with famil-
les, will be slow to come out and quick
to go back. And under modern condi-
tions there are often SO many alterna-
tive commodities and ways of getting
things done, so little inconvenience
occasioned by the temporary lessening
of some particular service, that it is
nothing like so easy to alarm the pub
lie as the inexperienced suppose. And,
in the second place, the sympathetic
strike is, broadly speaking, incompa-
tible with collective bargaining-the
policy by which trade-unions have
gained most in the past, and are likely
to gain most in the future. Literary

The ease with which the merchants
here were stung last Saturday by
bad checks, should awaken the en-
tire business element to the present
conditions within this city. So much
business is done by checks that all
business men have become calloused
and Indifferent to the handling of
checks of entire strangers. The re-
suit of last Saturday will be repeated
time after time unless the business
men unite in concerted effort to
stop the foolish habit of honoring
strangers checks. The real reason
for such practice is the fear of bust
ness getting away and each business
house is jealous to keep and get more
customers. But the business men
here will have to learn that people
with checks instead of money are real
ly asking favors in getting them
caShed and are for the most part rea-
sonable about the need for caution on
the part of the merchant. Such eau
ton really helps both in the long run,
for it protects the check as a medium
of exchange. On the other hand the
bad check artist will seek other
climes il he learns that the business
men are cautious about taking checks.

week to the world of labor has been
the departure of the ship Hare from
Manchester last Friday She left with
a cargo of food to the value of 6 5000
obtained by the parliamentary COM
mittee of the Trade-Union Congress
from the Cooperative Wholesale So
ciety at Manchester. For three days
before the lockers, who had been on
strike, had been working as hard as
they could to load the vessel at the
Pomona docks with the 10000 food
parcels for the locked-out men at
Dublin and their wives and families.
"The Hare arrived at the South
Quay, Dublin, little before two
O'Clock on the Saturday afternoon.
She had been delayed by fog in the
voyage down the Manchester ship
canal and across st. Georges Chan
mel. But when she did arrive what a
sight it was! The ship was gaily deco
rated with flags and streamers; she
was welcomed by the blowing of sir
ems and the ringing of bells; the quay
side was black with thousands of men,
women, and children who had gather
ed to watch her coming, and who sang
and cheered and cheered and sang I'M
til their threats must have been
hoarse. From Messrs. Haworth &
Company's mill on the canal bank a
group of men were waving hands, and
one of them pulled out red handker-
chief, at which more cheering went
up. 1t need scarcely be said that that
red handkerchief was taken as SYM
bolical of the red flag"
The terrible suffering and riots
which have made the recent Dublin
strikes SO black a chapter in British
industrial history have elected from
several specialists their opinion on
the expediency or profit of such def
ances on the part of labor of strongly
entrenched capital Their arguments
apply to labor wars everywhere, here
as well as in England. Mr.. w. J..
Davis, president of the recent Trade
Union Congress, says in the London
Morning Post that the employers, not
the workers, are to blame for strikes,
and as The Post is the organ of wealth
and aristocracy, his message goes to
the ones he aims to reach. AS he puts
it:
"Trade-unionism took it's rise more
from the employer than the labor lead
err 1t came from the unjust employ
ers, who, not satisfied with unfair
conditions, placed indignity after in
dignity on the worker until one of
their number had the pluck to rebel,
and who, by the timid murmurings of
the oppressed, was secretly proclaim
ed leader. By common consent of
the employers, and as they or their
friends made and administered the

try.

laws, he was prosecuted. The perse-
cution, however, instead of annihilat-
ing the leader, produced leaders. -
THE 'down-tools' action may be a
mistake, and if it is, employers are as
much responsible for it's adoption as
the officials of trade societies.
Instead of keeping to a bargain,
they often by divers means set off
men for no other reason than to set
on cheaper labor. Many of them are
unfriendly to any form Of industrial
combination and openly and tacitly APP
prove manager, and especially a
working foreman, who coerce men out
of their various unions. This is why
the 'down-tools policy is so rife with
men who are either not members of a
trade-union, or who have been mem
bers for only few weeks. This pol
icy is in many instances great mis-
take, as strikes do both harm to COM
merce and cause much ill-feeling be-
tween not only employers and work
men, but between workmen and work
men.
Strikes do not pay" says Mr.. Phil
lip Snowden, an earnest advocate of
labors right, brilliant journalist and
lecturer, whose voice is frequently
heard in the House of Commons plead
ing the cause of the proletariat. To
quote from his article in the same
paper:
They do not pay the workmen;
they do not pay the community; the
employers are the only party who can
be said in any way to gain by them.
They have powers in their hands by
which they can speedily more than
recoup themselves for any temporary
loss strike may inflict upon them.
THE irresponsible section of the
trade-unions today exercise an influ-
ence altogether beyond their numbers.
They are mainly responsible for the
strikes which have taken place in the
last two years. $50"
THE first lesson to learn is that the
strike is not means by which any
substantial and permanent improve
ment in the lot Of labor can be Sc
cured. The second matter arising out
Of modern economic developments is
that the public are now third party
to every big strike, and their interests
are quite as important as those of the
other two parties. The trade-unions
will have to accept this fact. After all,
the community is bigger than organ
lied labor, and 1t is a mistake for
trade-unionists to suppose that the
methods for dealing with labor dis
putes and the regulation of wages will
be just what they desire them to be-

hood among workingmen, IAN unset
