A GRIP WITH RADrcALIsnI.

The great strike of the steel workers
is first of all the work of the radical
elements of labor, they having brought
on the strike in defiance to the wishes
and recommendations of the more con-
sentative elements of organi labor.
The real issue is whether or not en-
ployment in the steel mills shall be
open to all men or only to members of
the steel workers union whether the
employer shall baye the right to EN-
ploy whom he sees fit or only such men
as the unions will allow:
These questions are brought to issue
by the radical elements of organized
labor. They were counselled by Mr..
Gompers to postpone the strike until
the conference called by President Will
son for October had met and reached
some agreement regarding the indus
trial unrest. The question of an open
or closed shop could have been present
ed to this small body of men for de-
termination and the thousands of steel
workers continued at work receiving
their hundreds of thousands of dollars
per day, which would have been greatly
to their advantage. They refused tn s
orderly and deliberate method of deal
ing with their dispute and have resort
ed to the violent and destructive meth
DDS of strike. The great question
before America now is HShall radical
ism prevail over law and order?''
The struggle promises to be ire
rnendous one The United States Steel
corporation is one of the greatest and
strongest of the country. Radicalism
exists in every section of the country
and is likely to rally to the support
of its champions formerly employed in
the steel industry. If radicalism wins
the fight the employer will lose his
right to determine the compensation
and the personnel of his employees. The
steel industry will be as completely de-
| livered into the hands of labor as the
railroads would be under the Plumb
plan. If the corporation wins every
man will be at liberty to labor where
he pleases and upon terms agreed upor
by himself and his employer
The outcome cannot be intelligent,
| predicted but it seems as though the in
| dividual laborer is hardly ready tt
yield his personal rights guaranteed
+, by the constitution of the government
under which he lives to a minority O
violence to gain selfish tyranny owe
all elements of law and order.

LET'S BE SENSIBLE.

The Reformer has so frequently ex-
pressed its views on the question of
Sunday observances that there ought to
be no doubt where it stands relative
to the present agitation against Sunday
baseball. 1t has no sympathy with the
movement. Falling back on an ancient,
and what is most of the time an obsolete,
law for the sake of preventing a sport
that has furnished harmless amusement
to hundreds of persons on Sunday aft
ernoons throughout the summer is, in
its opinion, not only useless but wholly
unwise. Nothing can possibly be gained
in these days of social unrest and re-
adjustment by arousing the class pre-
iudiee that such action is bound to
arouse There is no sense in the ar.
gument that Sunday baseball should be
stopped simply because an archaic
statute prohibits it when the same

In the Days News.

Few prelates of the Roman Catholic
church in the United States are better
known than the RI Rev. Eugene A. Gar
vey, the venerable bishop of the Altoona
diocese, who today celebrates the 50th
anniversary of his ordination to the priest
hood. From the beginning of his career
Bishop Carney has confined his labors
to the great coal mining regions of Penn
sylvania and he is personally known and
beloved by thousands of the miners and
their families. The bishop is now in his
18th year. Carbondale, in the heart oil
the mining region, was his birthplace
His education was received principally at
st. Charles's seminary, Philadelphia Fol
lowing his ordination in 1869 he filled pas
torates in Williamsport, Pittston and 9th
er Pennsylvania cities until 1901, when
he became bishop of Altoona.

Town Boy and Country Boy.
white River Junction Landmark.

white River Junction Landmark)
Formerly the town boy looked with
contempt on his country cousin. He
visited him eondescendingly in sum
mer vacation, and was amused at and
patronized his rustieity The country
boy longed for the excitement of town
and city life, and he got away from
his home surroundings at the earliest
possible moment.
The past few years have seen a ire
nendous movement to interest country
boys in country life. Now these young
,ters have their potato clubs and calf
clubs and garden clubs and so on. A
great many of them are farming on
their own hook in a small way and at
tanning an independent position. When
the town cousin comes out. in the coun-
try now, the city boy is envious of
the fat calves and pigs and fertile gar
den that are giving his formerly des-
pissed relative a big start towards bust
ness success.
What can be done in cities and viii
lage centers for the boys whose par
ents live on smoll lots of land and
where there is less chance for them to
engage in little enterprises on their own
initiatiyef .a-v
Ten years ago twothirds of these
boys spent their spare hours in idle
ness. In these,sbusy times most towns
give industrious boys plenty of chances
to work. But the great trouble with
the town boy is that it is so easy for
him to spend money. He is a constant
patron of movie shows. Money fairly
flows from his pocket for ices and
candy and chewing gum.
A boy who has earned about $15f
day was reported recently to have
bought four college ices in one evening
for his best girl, until she was taken
with sharp attack of indigestion.
What these boys need is fewer Wis
its to the ice cream saloon, and more
to the savings bank. When the tow
boy arrives to manhood he may have
earned as much as the country boy will
his calf and garden clubs, but it il
doubtful if lie has saved as much.
