As II the civil war in the Colorado coal
mines wero not enough. we are told by high
official authority that unless so and so comes
to pass 100000 more miners in the United
States may this week be called out on strike
Without attempting to fix. blame for present
conditions, we can surely see In this situation

to abolish the strike as an offensive or defen-
siye instrument In our Industrial disputes. 1,
has no place in the affairs OF an enlightened
people and progressive day, and the wonder Is
that we do not soc that clearly enough to do
something,
To many the Colorado situation has become
so grave as to call for the aid OF federal troops
since the state guard proved unequal to the
demands. II is strange, indeed. II organised
and armed militia could not cope with the con-
ditions at Ludlow. The question that rises
has to do with the personnel of these guards.
Who we're theyf Perhaps It Is only natural
that sympathy for the miners should find its
way into the ranks Of the soldiers but We
should make sure that nothing more tangible
than sympathy insinuated itself
In the meantime, while We may continue to
talk of fixing the blame and furnishing the
guilty parties" that is notthe only thing Bet
ter look TO causes more than effects and let
this state OF anarchy impress on us the impera-
tive need OF doing something TO compel arbitra
