There are three interests represent

When Governor Ferris called the
state troops To the scene of trouble

what the merits of the strike may be.
The troops are not there To cocrcC

there to protect strikehreakers, and the
companies of the upper peninsula will
make a sad mistake If they interpret
the presence of the troops as guar
antee that every move they make will
justify call of the soldiers.
The situation is so extremely critical.
owing To the nature of the men en-

hope for IS the protection of their prop

Ia run the mines while thousands of
men, regularly employed. are out with

Governor Ferris can bring these war

With wisdom and discretion in send
