The situation in the labor world to
day is entirely different from what i
was a month ago.
A month ago practically all unior
men were closely affiliated, seeking
one object, trusting each other. To-
day there are two factions in labor
and the breach is gradually widening
One of these factions is composed OF
the radical element-the social and
industrial "reds" who satisfied them
selves with nothing less than COM
plete victory and after that victory,
new concessions.
The other faction is composed OF
the average American worker and
home owner. The radical element
was too strong for the conservative
element in the labor party. At the risk
of weakening the cause, these radi-
Gals practically have been told to "go
it alone" in more than one union. The
settlement of the shopmen's Difficult
ties is one instance. There were men
in the shipments union who at the
start of the negotiations with the
railroad administration insisted on d
walkout. President Wilson asked
them to wait. The conservative ele-
ment waited and won out. The radl-
cal element refused to wait. They
have lost out not only with their EN-
ployers but they are in bad with their
union. In the steel strike there was
the same trouble in labor's ranks. I'm
fortunately the conservatives did not
control in this matter as in the shop.
mems strike. The result is that the
steel workers are about to lose their
strike.
We are not ready for class war
in this. We, perhaps, never will be
and those labor unions members who
are more socialist and more anar
chist than they are union labor
Americans will find this to be true.
The public has been kind to labor.
Not one strike of the many that have
been put in the past few months
Gould have been successful without
he public support. But the public
will not support extremists in the
'anks either of workers or capital.
The conservative element in labor is
to realize this and is
getting rid of radicals The sooner
Ill realize it the better it will be for
hem and for the unions.

Recruit 1000 Men
For Regiment Which
Will Serve Abroad

Chicago, Sept ga recruiting
campaign to add 1000 men to the
Goth United tSates Infantry, now in
progress, is to be the first time a
regular army unit ever has been
given permission to recruit it's own
men. Authorization for the under
taking was given by Maj. Gen. Leon
ard Wood, commanding the Central
Division, U. S. A. The large num-
Der needed for the regiment is as
cribed to losses of men used in re-
placements and discharge of select
i've service men, and others by rea-
son of expiration of enlistment
terms or expiration of the war.
Although there is no definite in
formation, officers of the Twentieth
are looking forward confidently to
service soon in Siberia, China and
Philippines or on the Mexican bor-
der. The regiment has a record Of
twenty Eight battle engagements.
1t was organized in 1861 at the di-
rection of President Lincoln, fought
in some of the bloodiest battles of
the Civil War and at it's close was
part of the army of occupation with
headquarters at New Orleans. 1t
participated in Indian wars in the
Dakotas, was in Cuba during the
Spanish conflict and later
spent four years in the Philippines.

OMAHA'S CASE.

The defiance of the authorities, the
lawless burning of the courthouse
the assault on an unprotected
woman and the numbering Of the
mayor are the things that stand out
in The Omaha lynching.
We say this IN advance of state
ments that will come from the parlor
reformers of the east, deploring the
lynching. The lMnching Of the ne
gro at Omaha is to be deplored, of
course, but those people who deplore
a lynching and criticize "lynch law
without at the same time, attacking
the crime which led to the lynching,
do more harm than they do good.
We have had three bad outbursts
Of race trouble recently, all in the
north-at Washington, at Chicago
and at Omaha. The sum total of
suggestions of alleged race experts
as result of the first two of these
troubles has been renewed effort to
prevent lynching in the south. Nothing
has been done to prevent the negro
from assaulting white woman, nothing
has been done to prevent lawlessness
generally except insofar as it applied
to lynching. The thing we should be
concerned about is not the lynchings
themselves, but the condition that
makes them possible.
When we attempt to bring about
peace between the races by attacking
lynching, we attack an effect. We do
not attack a cause We suggest
remedial measure, but we don't sug-
gest a preventative.

Freight Car Shut,
But Boys Obtain
Whiskey Therein

Wichita, Kas., Sept. 29-How a
barrel of whiskey, safely locked up
in freight car, in transit, was emp
tied without the car being "broken
into" was explained by two young
men when they appeared on trial de-
fore Judge John G. Pollock in the
federal court. The boys admitted
that they stole the whisky.
Glow did you get it out of the carr"
asked the judge.
"Bored hole through the bottom
of the car and into the barrel" said
the spokesman.
1t was explained that since the in
cident both boys had served in the
army. 1t appeared that no attempt
had been made to sell the whisky
and that the shipment was enter

defendants to zone day in jail-in the
marshal's office, not locked up"

POMERENE FOR PRESIDENT.

The "Pomerene for President
campaign is gathering force. The eff
fort to nominate the Ohio senator to
succeed Woodrow Wilson is gaining
strength and inasmuch as Ohio is a
pivotal state with "a votes, Pomer-
ene's boom is one to be reckoned with.
Pomerene has good record and
probably is as good man to make
the race as McAdoo or Baker or any
of the others. Of course, if the re-
publicans beat the treaty there will
be no necessity for Mr.. Pomerene
seeking the nomination. In the case
the treaty is not ratified, President
Wilson will seek a third term, and
it will be good night" for Mr.. Pome-
rene and Mr.. McAdoo and Mr.. Baker;
perhaps, for any republican that
throws this hat into the ring.

OVERALIS

Pine Blug, Sept. 20, 1919.
Editor Graphic,
Pine Bluff, Ark.
Dear Sir-In the issue of Sept. 81,
l noticed an editorial, Buying Over
alls," in which you refer to discus
sion of the sale price of overalls by
the secretary of the Chamber of
Commerce, before the Senate COM
mittee, on the so-called antiprofiteer-
ing bill, and you state the secretary
of the Chamber of Commerce had
reference to the suit of overalls. AS
| was the representative Of organic
ed labor you have reference to, will
you please publish this letter, as you
have been misinformed as to my hav-
ing reference to the single garment.
l had reference to the suit of over
alls, just as the secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, and can prove
my statement, and will meet the Sec
rotary of the Chamber Of Commerce
and present facts to prove it, it he
so desires. l am not endeavoring to
advertise the mail order house, but to
oppose and expose profteering which
a great majority of the people think
is being practiced by the retail mer-
chants, and unless relief comes, from
legislation, or some other source, the
people are going to more than ever
patronize the mail order house, as
they can save from 80 to so cents on
a great many necessary articles, in
GLIDING overalls. think l know
something about overalls, and did not
misstate anything before the COM
mittee, and as your editorial is mis-
leading as to my statement will you
please publish this letter.
Yours respt.,

Chairman, Legislative Commit
tee, Central Trades Council.

Teachers Organize
For Higher Wages

Edmonton, Alta, Sept. 29-Organ-
ization of the Alberta Teachers ALI
ance recently founded at Calgary, is
continuing Throughout the province
and the first official announcement is
the adoption of new wage schedule
which provides minimum of $1,000
a year with liberal increases for ex-
perienced instructors.
Shortage of school teachers in the
Canadian northwest became serious
this summer and it is understood that
the alliance received the informal ap-
prevail of provincial officials. Var
ious school boards in small cities and
towns attempted to outbid each other
for experienced instructors and sal
aries jumped as consequence.
Contracts based upon the new
schedule are to be submitted to
state and local educational officials
Immediately. The minimum salary
is an increase of $3.50 over the pres

REGULATING COTTON BUYING.

Directors of the Pine Bluff Cotton
Exchange have done big thing for
this city in eliminating the form o,
buying cotton from the wagons that
has prevailed in Pine Bluff for many
years, and substituting therefor the
competitive system
In the past it has been the custom
Of the cotton buyer TO make no bids
on wagon loads of cotton while an
other buyer was attempting to make
a purchase. Sonlg Buyers made it
practice to picket themselves far out
out on the county's roads. When a
wagon of cotton came along the buy
er would get on and ride into town.
No other buyer would bid for the cot
ton until the first man had finished
with the farmer. In this way, the
farmer made many sales at figures
much below the days price. They
got the worst of it and the buyer
who didn't get chance to bid cot the
worst of it. Realizing this the farm
ers have been taking cotton that
should have gone to Pine Bluff to 9TH
er markets. incidentally they've
done their banking and trading in
these other towns.
BY means of competitive system
OF bidding on wagon cotton, the
farmer will be given a chance to get
cotton at the top price. From 10000
to 10000 bales that have been going
to other towns will come to Pine
Bluff.
This action on the part of the ex-
change is public spirited action that
benefits Pine Bluff and rebounds to
the credit of the men who formulat-
ed it.
