able, states Ma. Fay, reports to the
bureau OF mines for all metal mines
in the United States show that at
least 25O men per 1000 per year are
injured sufficiently to cause loss Of
time. approximately the same Fate
will apply to other branches of the
mining industry. A reduction Of so
per cent in the number of mine acct
dents would mean a saving of at least
$500 lives in the United States every
year, a saving of valuable time now
lost and an alienation of much suf-
fering now resulting from more than

records show occur annually in the

to provide for the day when the golden
hours are spent and declining years
must be provided with comfort.
And this is not dream,--it is a

ing as is his right to life and equality
under the laws of our constitution. II
wrongs there have been in the past
and no one will deny 1.-THE spectacle
of the industrial and economic strife
across the waters must drive home to
every American citizen, looking into
the future, the necessity of his inter-

America will never recognize that

THE old rule holds good: In the

bread Whether a man be an en-
ployer or an employee, he must labor in
the vineyard of this eartn or he must
not expect reward; if an employee he
must learn the lesson that honest toll
alone can win respect Of his fellows;
if an employer he must learn that the
business in which he is engaged is a
joint enterprise; that the right of those
who labor in that business are para
mount to all others, and both must
learn the great truth that their plight

people of this nation can secure in

without bloodshed and without sacri-

Let us today renew the covenant
that the fathers of the constitution
made one hundred and thirty-twc
years ago Let us in the same spirit
in which they approached their task
here resolve to preserve this union
which establishes justice insures do
nestle tranquility, provides for the

PLUMB PLAN OPPOSED

SURPRISED THAT INTELLIGENT
MEN WOULD SANCTION So
ClALlSTlc SCHEME.

Shortly after the appearance of the
Plumb plan of railroad control, Gov
ernor Cornwell of West Virginia
wrote to the governors of other states
calling attention to the loss in tax re-
ceipts which the states would suffer
if the Plumb plan were adopted. He
estimated the yearly loss for his own
state at 100000 His action was
criticised by the officers Of certain la
Dor unions at Huntington. w. Va, to
ing letter, addressed to the secretary
Of the Federation Of Railway EN-
ployes:
Neither Sane Nor Fair.
Gentlemen: OF course l regret that
any of my fellow citizens should dis
agree with, or feel aggrieved with me
because of my views upon any public
question, but that can not deter me
from having and exercising the same
freedom of opinion that you have.
When you asked for an eight-hour
day i was with you, heart and soul.
Il was then and am now, in favor
of your securing liberal wage. but
when you ask the farmers and the la
borers in other lines of work to go In
debt twenty billions of dollars
through the medium of the federal
government to buy the railroads and
give them to you to operate for your
benefit and to use as you please, you
are making a proposition that is nei-
Their sane nor fair.
"ro me it is little short of amazing
that men possessing the intelligence
Of the train men l meet should be
gulled into making such unreasonable
and outrageous demands.
'1f the people bought the railroads
and gave them to you to run for your
benefit, telephone and telegraph en-
ployes would demand the same thing
of those properties. They have as
much right to it as you have. Then
the coal miners would demand that
the mines be purchased and given to
them, and they havesas much right to
'sThen the farm laborers, with even
better right would say we produced
the food you live on-buy the farms
and give them to us Then we have
not socialism, but chaos They are
trying to run things that way in Rus
STA and we know the result"
There is a growing feeling that the

plan.
