THE ''LIFE AND DEATH
STRUGGLE" A BOOMERANG

Washington, Nov. 5.-The Republi-
can Publicity Association, through its
president, Hon. Jonathan Bourne. Jr
today gave out the following state.
ment from its Washington headuuar-
ters:
Mr.. GOmpers has called a special
convention of labor chiefs to perfect
an alliance with unions of Canada
more effectively to fight out the life
and death struggle of the workers now
il progress. Il Will he . life and
death struggle without doubt. but
one in which labor will be lost if it
wins and be saved if it loses. Every
hardship that a general strike will
bring upon the country will hit the
laboring man and his family lust as
hard as other individuals If the pur-
poses of the strike are achieved it will
be the laboring mans government that
VIII be OYerthrown as well as the gov
efnment of every other citizen. If the
institutions upon which the prosperity
OF the nation has been built for a
hundred years are to go down. the la
boring man will suffer equally with
his neighbor.
1t is probably hopeless to bring
sanity TO the minds of the ignorant
foreign element that is so prominent
in the coal strike and that will be
evident in other strikes if they come.
They get their inspirations from Eu-
rope and are STEPPED in the teachings
that have brought chaos to Russia
and are seeking to wreck other coun-
tries of the Old World. But what of
the native Americans who seem about
to throw themselves headlong into
this plot against society? Many of
their sons and brothers gave their lives
that American independence might
live. Are they now not only to i'm
peril not only their own lives but the
lives of others to secure the destruc-
tion of that independence?
"A general strike would be, in the
last analysis, a fight for the closed
shop, to deny to man the right to
work except under conditions imposed
by an organization unrelated to him
or his prospective employer. An at
tempt to wiring from the public com
pliance with such principle by i'm
posing suffering and death upon the
people is neither moral, humane. nor
American. It is as criminal a pro-
'eeding as the act OF the highwayman

INDIAN RIVER INLET NOT OPENED

Indian River inlet in Sussex county
will not be opened to the Atlantic
Ocean this year, and consequently the
inlet will not be made navigable, its
foul waters viii not be sweetened and
large quantities 0f fish desired for
food will not appear therein. At
tempts to open this inlet were made
during the past summer. but they fail
ed Sussex eountians attribute the
failure to politics.
The last legislature appointed a
commission. composed of Senator
Bennett Republican, Senator Hollett.
Democrat. and Representative Danz-
enbaker. Republican to ascertain the
feasibility Of opening the inlet and
appropriated $500 for miscellaneous
expenses. They reported favorably
and were constituted a commission to
execute the project, for which $4,000
was appropriated. The commissioners
disagreed concerning a place for OPEN
ing the inlet. Senator Bennett pro-
posed a location near the life saving
station, which was favored by resi-
dents Of Cedar Creek hundred. and
some persons say would have bene-
fitted Rehoboth Bay more than Indian
River Bay, and the other commission
ers suggested site three miles further
down the beach, which was favored
by residents OF Baltimore hundred.
Small islands block the channel of
Indian River inlet, and the Assawa-
man Canal draws water from the in
let. Dynamite experiments near the
life saving station, made on suggestion
OF Senator Bennett, were ineffective.
The other commissioners contracted to
dredge three miles south, but before
work on the contract could begin
farmers made a breach near a small
sand dune. This caused water to flow
from the inlet, but none went back.
AS a result the inlet is in worse coi-
dition now than previously. The ex-
panse of water is broader and shall
lower. After this failure the contract
was cancelled. the contractor fearing
that if he continued his work the
dredge might be swept out to sea and
lost. The $4,000 fund appropriated by
the legislature is intact, but the 5000
appropriation has been spent. SUSSEX
countians subscribed a large sum, BIZ
The subscriptions have not been paid
Additional experiments will be d
Ierred until next year
