THE WORK GOING FORWARD

Much comment is being made in
the press of the state on the Arcadia
labor troubles We are glad to an
nounce to the public that the ques-
tion has been settled and it was set
tied along the line of suggestions
made in this paper. 1t is true that
large number of the workmen have
gone to their homes or to other fields,
but we do not hesitate to say after
giving the matter most earnest consid.
Grafton and talking with both the EN-.
ployers and the employees, that no
question of this magnitude was ever
better handled than was the situation
in Arcadia. An appeal was made to
the patriotism of the workmen and
they heard the appeal. When we
quietly yet firmly told several lead
ers in the demand for increased wag-
es that in our opinion they should
either go to work and adjust the mat
ter of increase through committees
or quietly throw down the job with
no attempt at influencing the action
of others, they without a dissenting
voice said our position was correct
and reasonable. All honor to the
men now who will not permit them
selves to be actuated by other mo-
tives than that of patriotism. Some
have gone, it is true, but others have
come and the work goes forward, and
will no doubt be completed within the
time limit of the contract. The
wages being paid are said to be fair,
and many of the men are claiming
that they are saving more money at
this camp than they have done else
