STRIKE ORDER REVOKED
United Mine Workers of America
Obey Court Order and Men Will
be Allowed to Resume

The great coal strike involving over
100000 miners who quit work on No.
vember l in order to enforce their de.
mands for a living wage and better
working conditions has been calico
off in obedience to a court mandate
isued by Judge A. B. Anderson of the
United States District Court.
The decision to obey the order OF
the court was reached by the general
committee of the United Mine Work
ers Tuesday morning after long
session, and its action was at once
transmitted to the state headquarters
and various local unions throughout
the country by the international of
fcers as follows:
"To the Officers and Members of the
U. M. w. A.:
Dear Sirs and Brothers-In obe-
dience to the mandate isued on No
vember 8 by the United States dis
trict court, district of Indiana, Judge
A. B. Anderson presiding, the under
signed hereby advise you that the
order of October Is directing a cessa-
ton of mining operations in the BIZ
luminous coal fields of our jurisdis
tion is withdrawn and cancelled.
"Fraternally yours,
John l.. Lewis, Acting President.
civilian Green, Secretary"
Acting President Lewis, in COM
menting upon the action of the COM
nittee made the following statement:
eve will comply with the mandate Of
the court. We do it under protest.
We are Americans. We cannot fight
our government. That is ALL
The result of the order permitting
the men to work is as yet undeter-
mined, as the reports of the number
of men returning to work were slow
in reaching international headquarters
of the mine workers here, chiefly be-
cause the order resembling the strike
call have not yet been received in
many districts and bcause many local
unions will hold meetings before de-
Gliding whether to return to the mine.
The executive officers of the mine
workers will attend a meeting in
Washington, by invitation of Secre-
tary of Labor Wilson, beginning to-
day to meet the operators and resume
wage negotiations.

PAS OFF HIS HEAD
By S. E. Kiser

Pa bought himself a derby hat and
brought it home last night,
And ma can't keep from thinkin' that
our future won't be bright.
He paid nine dollars for the thing;
when ma found out the price
She seemed to think she ought to ring
the doctor or advice.
"Good gracious, pa," she said, "what
made you ever buy that kind?
There must be something, Pm afraid,
that's overthrew your mind"
But there was worse than that to
come; pa bought an overcoat.
1t almost seemed to strike ma dumb;
a gasp stuck in her throat
mean when pa told what it cost
they soaked him fifty bucks.
Ma said: 81 guess his reasons lost;
his minds all brakes and ducks. !"
And then she went and felt pas head
and asked him if it hurt.
"Get ready now to faint" pa said;
81 also bought a shirt"
He smiled kind of sickly smile that
chased mas fears away.
81 hope" she told him, after while,
chats all you bought today,
Because | did some shoppin', too-a
winter coat and hat
Both bargains that but very few
would ever get them at;
The hat was thirty-fve, but all | paid
was twenty-nine;
I've got it out here in the hall; hope
you'll think it's fine.
"The coats a beauty; you'll be glad
l picked it out, | know;
It's something like the one l had last
fall year ago.
You'd never guess the price l paid
two hundred and eighteen;
1t looks as though it had been made
to order for queen.
You're glad | got them amt you dear
Come on cheer up and smile;
The coat'll do me for next year-un-
less they change the style"
Then pa said he'd bought some shoes
ten dollars for pair;
Ma nearlv tainted at the news; it
drove her to despair.
"Why pal" she hollered Gland alive!
Has something cracked your dome
1t looks as if you wished to drive US
out of house and homew
Pa put his fingers in his ears and
moaned a sickly moan;
Mas worried, for she says she fears
his reasons overthrow.

WORLD DEMOCRACY
Reconstruction VS.. CamOufiage
(By John Bush.)

l have heard many such things;
miserable comforters are ye ALL
Job XVI:2.
The thing that hath been, it is that
which shall be; and that which is
done is that which shall be done: and
there is no new thing under the sun.
-Ec. I:9.
How distinct is the fidelity of these
words of holy writ to contemplat1ve
Americans who pause to apprehend
the present conditions in comparison
to the articles published relative to
worldwide democracy and reconstruc-
ton. Writers and orators frequently
put a diametrical Interpretation upon
the same utterance, which makes it a
perplexing task to conceive which is
the more logical; but the above
scripture, when compared with past
and present conditions, makes ap-
parent the camouf1age which is being
promulgated to conceal the actual in
tent of buccaneer capitalism which is
endeavoring to attract the minds of
the people to an object while they
fleece them of their cherished treas
ures, the rights of the constitution.
The big steel strike is a demonstra-
ton of the intent of the ruling class,
though the constitution in article one
reads: Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of re-
ligion or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech or of the press; or the right
of the people peaceably to assemble
and to petition the Government for
redress of grievances"
The capitalistic power, which rules
the nation regardless of law, is pro-
hibiting the workers to assemble,
while the steel workers are only eXer-
cising their rights by petitioning the
government for redress of griev-
ances.
The officials of the government are
familiar with the facts pertaining to
the strike and know that Judge Gary
and his college of brigands have not
in any sense complied with the law
and if this is the great land of dem
ocracy and garden of libertys tree
the nation that sent her soldiers
many of them these same steel work
ers, to Europe to make the world safe
for democracy and free from mill
tary autocracy. 1t is indeed strange
that the government should allow
Mr.. Gary and his militarized gang tC
despoil the workers of their lawful
rights. Who were the more patriotic
of the two elements in the govern
ment's time of adversely? 1t was
organized labor, which sent Samuel
Gompers, as its spokesman, to Wash
ington to confer with President Will
son and to pledge the cooperation
of labor to the Federal Government
for the duration of the war, and it was
the committee from the steel mer
who Mr.. Gary represents that Mr.
Wilson told they were trying to hold
up and loot the Government.
These are the things that have al
ways happened and always will, and
this talk of reconstruction and the
dawning of new and better world
is camoufage.

SECURING GREATER HOLIDAY
TRADE
By Hugh King Harris

Advertising space costs money.
Every advertiser knows this, espe-
cially merchants at holiday time.
How to secure 1909 efficiency from
every cent expended in holiday ad-
vertising is the big problem. A few
actual facts which every local mer-
chant should consider carefully are
given. These are based on an expe-
rience of fifteen years and a broad
scope of investigation covering the
Local Labor Press question from coast
to coast.
In at least fifty American cities the
local papers are regularly used by
large department stores, and in each
case the results are reported as ex-
tremely satisfactory.
In many cities the local labor paper
is considered on a full par with the
local dailies as a medium for local
advertising by all firms.
In practically every case rates in
the labor paper are less than in the
dailies, but authority states that one
thousand labor paper circulation
equals in actual purchasing power,
six thousand ordinary circulation
Here's the reason: The labor paper
has practically no newsstand OF
street circulation. News stands can
return unsold copies. The labor
paper is not bought for sport or stock
news and tossed aside The labor
paper is usually weekly or monthly
it is not dead" over night. The man
who reads the labor paper has fam
lily, all of whom are interested in that
paper as it is the advocate of labor
rights.
The readers of labor papers act on
the advertising in the columns of their
own papers-they cooperate, and pat
ronize those firms who show a friend
ly spirit of reciprocity. This is not
theory but a proven fact Any mer-
chant who will cater to and treat fair
ly the organized workers will receive
direct action. The workers have the
cash, they take the judgment of their
local editors as to who is fair or un-
fair
The holiday trade this year will be
made up of over 759c of actual, organ
lied wage earners, the trades and
crafts of the city, and the part of wis
dom for each and every merchant is
to see to it that a substantial appro-
priation is made for labor paper space
Today the big national advertising
agencies put space in the Local Labor
Press the same as in national maga-
zines, not on sentiment, but as a cold
blooded business proposition - and
when the advertising agencies do this
