A FALLEN GIANT.

Whatever may be the final adjust
ment of the warfare between the con
tending elements in the Butte miners
union, which eliminated in the vio'
lent outbreak on the part of the In
surgents a few days ago, it is plain
strength in so far as it's exercise OF
arbitrary power is concerned. Never
perhaps in the history of organized
labor has there been a local body that
so completely dominated, inundated
and controlled not alone its own mem
bership, but the membership of every
other local union, the business popula-
tion and the mining companies which
employ its members. For so many
years it had ruled the great copper
camp that its officers had evidently
become imbued with the notion that
they were accountable to no one. But
there Is always last straw, and in
this case it appears to have taken the
form of assessments for the benefit Of
have effectually broken the unions
back. Although the strike has been
called # several months, the assess
nents were still being levied and the
officers of the union are said to have
refused to render an account as to
how the money was being spent This
had been going on for many months
during which time the mutterings OF
discomfort continued to grow louder,
until the attempt to force payment OF
the last assessment caused the storm
to break A special correspondent OF
the Muscular, who seems to have a
clear insight to the situation in Butte
says:
"Those who consider the outbreak
purely socialist demonstration err
greatly. 1t Is true leaders Of the 7. w
w and other socialists are prominent
but the ranks of the seceders en-
brace all classes and political creeds
and nationalities. Indeed, the per cent
of English, Irish and American miners
v.,hn al ,In 4 IA
ment of the union exceeds that of
Films and 'Bohunks.' 1t was real
insurrection, in which almost every
body raised the flag of revolt"
The details of the instruction and
the results that will follow are mat
tiers of absorbing interest in the Occur
d Alene district, for the big bully of
Butte has often made its Influence |
felt here at times when the district |
was torn with labor disturbances, or
chance to start something, There
will be no more of this now, for an or
so shattered by internal i
will have all it can do to
hold itself together without under
taking to regulate the affairs Of its
leghbors.
The Butte outbreak is a staggering II
,low to the Western Federation of
Miners 1t has no other strong and
aggressive local organization. Where
ver 1t has engaged in a strike it has
zone down to disastrous defeat. Its l
hief financial support has been the {
suite union, and now that the men,
ers Of that organization have spurn- G
d the authority of it's officers and re- +
use longer to pay tribute, the fedora c
ion itself has received shock from
'hich 1t may never recover. For this
here will be no regret felt except by +
hose of it's leaders who for Years h
ave sucked the financial blood from
le toilers who make up Its member
hip.

IT'S THE WORD TO THE LIVING
THAT TELLS.

Lon J. Haddock in Improvement Era)
1t isn't enough to say in our hearts
that we like man for his ways,
1t isn't enough that we fill our minds
with paeans of silent praise;
Nor is it enough that we honor man,
as our confidence upward mounts
It's going right up to the man himself
and telling him so, that counts.
For the sun may shine as never before
yet the sky be black as night
AS the storm clouds spreading fold on
fold, shut out its effulgent light.
But of what avail is the sun beyond, If
it never appears to view?
The rays that hallow their way to cur
hearts are tho ones that penetrate
through.
There are men in the world, aye, and
women, too, that rise to the nobl-
est heights;
Yet their paths oft lie in the humber
spheres, away from the glaring
lights,
And they pass on their way with never
word of comfort, or hope or trust
Till they fall at last; then recreant
world sounds its eulogy over their
dust.
If a man does a work you really ad-
mire, don't leave a kind word UNI
said.
In fear that to do so might make him
vain, and cause him to lose his
head"
But reach out your hand and tell him.
"Well DONE" and see how his
gratitude swells
It isn't the flowers we streW on the
grave, it's the word to the living
that tells.

The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1914-01-13

We have wondered at the inteh.
sity of the opposition to Senator
Fletcher in certain quarters because
Of the custom house issue between
Jacksonville and Tampa. The SEN
ators action in that matter seems to
us to be no gauge whatever of his
merits in view of the fact that he is
not the special representative of any
section of the State, although, as in
the case referred to, it was necessary
that one of the two cities should get
the plum. He is neither criminal
nor a derelict, nor traitor to Tam
pa, because of the, reorganization of
the customs districts and that ques-
ton has nothing whatever to do with
his claims upon the people of Flor
ida to reelection. 1t is false issue
and should be dismissed from further
consideration as much ado about a
matter that has no place in the SEN
atorial campaign. The Tarpon
Springs Leader takes the right view
of the matter when it says:
THE Tampa opposition to Senator
Fletcher appears to be based wholly
upon the allegation that the senator
Is responsible for the reorganization
of the Florida customs districts and
which was inimical to Tampa's inter
ests. The senator pleads not gull
! ty, but appears unable to acquit him
self to Tampa's satisfaction. But
granting that he is guilty, hasn't the
change brought the greatest good to
the greatest number and because the
lesser number suffer, perhaps, should
the most influential and generally
helpful senator that Florida has ever
had be turned DOWN."

Notes OF INTER. ST
IN RAILROAD CIRCLES

Many railroads are retrenching
because of the contraction in freight
traffic.
John Howe Peyton has been elect
ed president of the Nashville, Chat
tanooga & St. Louis railway, effec-
tive April 1. He is now chief engi-
neer of the Louisville & Nashville
railroad.
Theodore N. Vail, president of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Co., is gradually resigning from The
directorate of several railroads in or
der to lessen his business RESPONSE
bilities.
The Chicago, st. Louis and New
orleans is the name of a proposed
new road just incorporated in Ala
bama with headquarters in Birming-
ham.
The Erie railroad has followed the
lead set by the Pennsylvania and
Reading in cutting down its force as
a means of retrenching in operating
expenses. Six thousand men have
been laid off from the shops, main
tenance of way and other depart
ments.
With the bonus of $4,000 offered
by San Antonio if the line of the
San Antonio, Uvalde and Gulf rail
road is in operation to Corpus Chris
tt by February l in danger of being
lost, the railroad company is max.
ing every effort to rush to completion
the San Antonio Cornus Christi d.
vision. Operations have been great
ly delayed by the heavy rains and
prolonged period of unfavorable
weather.
One of the most inexpensive and
at the same time effective cattle
guards in use has been constructed
on the Arizona Eastern in parts OF
Arizona. It is said that since the,
Ehave been installed no animal has
shown any desire to cross or even in
vestisate them, as they consist sim
ply of a he'd of small cactus, spe
cies that grows abundantly alons
the line and with whose thorns cat
tie and horses are thoroughly ia
miliar, 1t is said that horses ant
cattle shy OF the guards as they
would of a rattlesnake.
The Reading railroad has discon
tinued selling half rate tickets tt
employees who ride daily to theil
work. In future the employees will
get no reduction except through thu
purchase of the regular Communication
tickets. The change has caused ;
storm of protest from the Readings
workers.
The roads in the south continue tt
make favorable comparison with
the earnings Of the same period q
year ago, increases still appearing
on such important systems as South
ern, Louisville & Nashville, Chesa
peake & Ohio, Alabama, Great
Southern, Cincinnati, New Orleans
4 Texas Pacific and Mobile & Ohio
although the gains are less pro
nounced than formerly.

This is the kind of weather that
puts Florida in an even better posi-
ton for general observation and de-
sire than that which she normally
occupies. If you are disposed to
grumble and nurse a crouch because
the sun isn't as genial in it's smiles
today as usual just think what's hap
pening to the folks in the matter OF
sunshine and general climatic condi-
tions some hundreds of miles north
of our State line. Their eyes are
cast in this direction with such mute
appeal in their sorrowful depths that
we can almost shed tears of sym
pathy. Come to Florida at any cost!
The right climate is worth pretty
nearly all the rest-aL, :. we've got
both.

Harry Thaw will probably be re-
leased on bail until his case on the
habeas corpus proceedings can be
heard, and some of those who have
testified against him profess to be
scared and fear his vengeance. This
is nonsense. Harry is just as sane
as the average man and always has
been. His killing Of White for de-
bauching his wife was no proof of
insanity; but it has given him such
a dose of high priced justice that he
is practically sure never to kill any
one else. Harry yearns for freedom
for its own dear sake, not that he
may go on the warpath and shed
more blood. If his enemies will let
him alone he is sure to do as much
for them. The young man comes of
good stock and has none of the blood
lust of a murderous brute in his
heart.

NOT ALWAYS THEIR FAULT

When for any reason the Florida
fruit grower fails to market his crop
through the commission houses at
such profit as he thinks he has a
right to expect he never fails to land
on said commission houses with the
full force of the warmest investive
he can produce for the occasion. I'm
doubtedly in many cases he doesn't
get fair treatment, but mortal man
Is always seeking for goat upon
whom to saddle the burden of his
own shortcoming, and in many cases
the commission man is not in fault
and the grower is to blame. What
R. P. Burton, sales manager of the
Florida Citrus Exchange, has to say
on this subject is the testimony of
one with superior sources of informa-
ton, and in the Florida Grower Mr..
Burton has this to say which may
not be pleasant reading for some
growers but probably has plenty of
truth in it:
at is time to dismiss from the pub
lie mind the rot about the average
grower being robbed by some com
mission concern in the eastern and
northern markets. There have been
men of shady character engaged in
the commission business, who have
In former seasons robbed some grow
ers in Florida. but for every commits
sion concern of this character which
has robbed grower you can find a
hundred growers who, from lack of
proper understanding of the correct
methods Of handling citrus fruits
have robbed themselves by misman-
agement, and who are glad of an ex-
cuse to lay the blame upon some one
else. 1t is high time that the grow.
ers in Florida use their own brains
and investigate for themselves con
ditions as they exist and why they
exist.

Jeff Davis of the Mariana Leader
