Governor and Ex-Governor Of Massa-
chusctts Involved in Strikes.

Massachusetts is brought into dis
tinctlOn as most states seldom are by
having big strikes at the same time
against its governor and an eX-goVer-
nor. Strike leaders are telling the
strikers to do their best now as the
eyes of the world are focused on them
because Of the height to which they
have attained in taking issue with the
highest Official in the commonwealth
The strike against ex-governor ORA
per in HOpedale is only partial, in that
it involves only a few hundred Of his
nOn-English speaking operatives. but
the strike against governor EOSs IS al
most complete, affecting his works in
Hyde Park, which may have to be shut
down
Complicated and novel situations de-
velOp from this labor disturbance It
mas been customary In recent strikes
flor the strikers 10 appeal to the gov
ernOr for help. and governor FOss di-
rectly or indirectly used his influence
TO beat the employers into submission,
as for instance In the Boston Elevated
strike and In the threatened outbreak
among the operatives of the New Eng
land Telephone & Telegraph company
The state board Of Cancellation and ar
bitraion. whose members are ap-
pointed by the governor, was at his
command in this service Hence, If
governor FOss were TO take his own
medicine for the sore that broke out
at Hyde Park he would have TO assert
his influence as the chief executive Of
the state over himself as a private en-
to his executive chamber at the state
house where the dignity Of his office
requires that his conference with him
self should be held Behind closed
doors he would, as governor Of the
state, lay down the rules to himself
and appeal TO his own patriotic spirit
as a citizen Of Massachusetts that he
do his utmost for peace and. order and
the industrial prosperity within the
commonwealth.
Says governor FOss to Mr.. FOss:
You know, old boy. that you must no.

as then it becomes incumbent upon me
as chief executive Of the state to inter

cigar Makers Win Long Fight.

In January. 1910, the cigar makers
of Peoria H.. entered into negOtia-
tiOns with the cigar manufacturers
for an adjustment of the scale. The
scale at that time had been in force
for nearly is years, and no material
change had been made, although there
had been innUmerable changes in the
conditions under which the cigar
makers worked. The new agreement
containing the new scale and the bet
ter conditions, was presented to all the
manufacturers. most Of whom signed
up, but one firm refused to agree OF
course. the union men struck against
this firm, and now, after having been
manufacturing nonuniOn cigars for
three years the firm has entered into
an agreement with the Cigar Makers
union. paying the advanced scale and
employing members Of the Cigar
Makers union only. An interesting
Incident Of this long strike is that
when the strike first occurred quite a
body of cigar makers were employed.
