ARBITRATION BY ALL MEANS.

If there is any real truth in the rumors flying
around respecting contemplated early strike of all
the mill men on the Harbor then it is about time the
question was taken in hand and settlement made
by proper arbitration.
If in many instances wages are too low, and there
many who say they are, then reasonable raise
should be granted, before strike could be called
The next awful thing that could come here. out
side Of war; would be strike: the rank and file of
people in business in condition to stand the
loss it entails and everybody is loser in the game
no matter who wins.
The idea of forcing men to live below living
wage is economically unsound and unjust and bound
to grief OF there are conditions where
low wages temporarily necessity but these con-
dtons should not be made the excuse to keep wages
down when conditions change as they have already
materially changed in this section.
A cheap, no good town is always the outcome of
cheap wages. and those employers who use utterly
selfish ways of forcing down proper wage are simply
sowing the wind and they will reap the whirlwind
The public is aroused these days and believe in
a square deal for employer and workman alike and
that has not always been the case.
1t would be very interesting reading for the mill
owners to publish the scale of wages they pay and
say whether those receiving the wages are married or
single
All we argue is, that if wages are unreasonaby
low they should be raised without throwing the Har-
Dor country into bankrupt condition by miserable
unnecessary strike.
