RECKLESS AMERICANS.
Men Who Don't know Their Rights, or
Knowing DareI't Maintain.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN---Sir: II In
not at all surprising that some of your
correspondents should confuse "kickers"
with reformers, sociologsts muckrakers
and such like; not at all surprising, be-
cause we Americans have got 30 out OF
the habit OF kicking" that We do not
even know what II means
How many of us stand up for our
rights? DO not most OF us calmly accept
all sorts of Injustice rather than put up
with the possible unpleasantness OF the
harsh words and frowns which might
follow vigorous "kick"?
Verify We Americans are the biggest
fools on earth, and a weak lot of nlnnies
and milksops we are into the bargain.
DO THE SUN readers suppose that the
Wilson-Bryan circus which Is running the
business OF the whole country would or
could continue to exist a single week II
we We're a nation OF ''kickers"? Our
fathers and grandtathers who made this
country what 1t Is to-day would be
ashamed OF us.
II Mr.. Henri de Lafitole will organize a
"kickers' club will be the first to Join.

Psychological Depression.

The Presidents explanation that the
present depression Of business Is merely
psychological has brought unbounded
relief to all the thinkers and theorists.
OF course psychological depression Is
much more comforting sort than a
materialistic or realistic one. You have
only to correct the thought and the de.
preston becomes a hump. ....
We have here charming application
to economies of the near science OF
mental healing. The sickness OF the
commercial body Is really In the com.
mercial mind. Business only imagines
that It's supply of nutrition Is reduced,
that its circulation is weak, that Its
nerves are shaken and that IL Is unable
to develop Its accustomed healthy en-
ergy. The effects of the tariff are an
Illusion the paralysis of the railroads
Is distorted mental perception: stag
nant industry Is bypochondria and uu-
employment hallucination.
Unfortunately the body economic Is
quite as obstinately nervous and de-
spondent ms the individual subject.
That Imagination is as bad as reality
holds true of groups as well as units.
When n man thinks he IL sick abed he
Is apt to be found between the sheets
miserable and inert. and when a busi-
ness community becomes convinced
that 1t has aguc and jaundice and rick
cts IL is pretty sure to act AS II 1t
had contracted these maladles. even
though the optimistic healer may scoff
at such weak yielding TO mere mental
impressions.
II not infrequently happens in the
treatment of the individual that n
period Of rest and removal Of anxiety
restores tone to the mind and aids the
body in Kidding itself of the pathology
cal symptoms. whether real or lmagi-
nary. If the President Is so sure that
the malady Of business to-day Is psychic
logical. would II not be good idea TO
try the rest cure. Most likely he would
find astonishing Improvement If he
should promptly remove the causes OF
psychological disturbance and give his
patient n chance 10 recover mental and
nervous tone.

THE OPERATORS SIDE.
what Purports 10 lie True story OF
the Colorado strike.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sr: Ut
all the newspapers THE SUN alone has
from time TO time given the other side
In the Colorado strike any hearing at all
The facts can be extracted only with
difficulty from "A mass OF denunciatiOn
and vituperation OF the operators At a
meeting in the Governors room In Dem
yer in November the union presented five
or six grievances The operators ac-
coded to all with the exception OF one,
that the mines should he unionlZed. They
said that all the other demands were
made obligatory under the laws of the
State OF Colorado, with the exception OF
the rate OF pay, and that they agreed 10
allow. 1t would seem To any fair minded
man that the controversy was then at an
end. IL was for "A great majority Of the
miners, all, with the exception Of the
labor agitators and their henchmen. These
gentlemen We're not content, because
operators would not unon!ze the mines,
The agltators maintained the tent colony,
supplied pro rata allowance to married
and single men per week, ana rifles and
ammunition from the headquarters at In
dlanapolis or wherever their treasury was,
Common sense would ask what was the
object In doing this? Was 1t not to coerce
the working miners to join the union
Why should these gentlemen In the tent
colony be equipped with arms and ammu-
milton except to use them? That they
did use them no one denies. and that the
mine guards should shoe; back IL bur
natural. II was not IN the interest OF
the mine guards to Shoot up" the tent
colony. but II was In the interest of the
union leaders to have the tent colony
terrorze the working miners and they
did.
Then came the call for che militia. 1t
had no reason to attack or fight the tent
colony. When the labor leaders instructed
the Greeks and Bulgars and other foreign
ers to commence firing ON the militia It
naturally fought back. One OF the women
from the colony now here says that when
the men lay in a trench and shot at the
militia she loaded their guns for them
There was n battle, and in that battle
brought on by the tent colony, two women
and eleven children were suffocated in n
hole dug under a tent by their husbands
and fathers.
1t is to be noted that none OF the union
agitators was shot or injured. These gem
tlemen are too careful OF their lives for
that They have their heelers and des-
peradoes do the business for them. At
any rate. that Is the whole story two
women and eleven children suffocated In
a hole OF their husbands and fathers
digging, and the newspaper press of the
United States upbraids, denounces and
condemns the mine owners for their OBJ
stinacy. cruelty and lack OF humanity In
numbering women and children. d.
