THE POINDExTER BILL.

TENIERE was nothing surprising in the action Of the
Il United states Senate in passing the Polndexter
ant-strike bill.
In the nrst place the principle involved in the bill is
absolutely sound.
In addition to that the result Of the election last No
vember may be taken very distinct popular endorse
menl OF that principle in national legislation
The Poindexter bill does not undertake to prohibit
strikes Of all kinds but applies only employees OF rail-
roads engaged in interstate commerce.
Neither does the bill undertake to deny to any his
right to quit his employment for any cause
That right secured to him, but the bill does propose
to make It unlawful for two men, whether they
employers employees, to enter into conspiracy TO
interfere with interstate commerce
Virtually, that is prohibition Of strikes interstate

ployes to quit in such way TO interfere with the
right OF the public to have continuity Of railroad
service.
measure such as shat protecting the public welfare
Is fundamentally sound.
It win be remembered by the people Of Delaware that
after the railroad bill reached the
IN the last session there inserted in 1t what was
known the Cummins amendment, prohibiting strikes.
The Senate adopted the amendment but the House re-
fused concur and the amendment was eliminated be-
fore the bin passed.
Because number Of Senator'S had supported the anti
strike amendment radical labor leaders cenered
nsht Of opposition upon those and sought to bring
about their defeat In the November election.
Particularly this true OF Senator Cummlns who

sponsor for tho antl-strike amendment
The labor union leaders failed In their effort To defeat
the who supported the antl-strike amendment and
cummins returned to the Senate by record plu-
rallty
The Senatorial Campaign Committee was headed by
Poindexier OF Washington who had been an ardent adj
vocaie OF the antl-strike amendment
The campaign for the election OF Republican Senators
was largely In Poindexiers hands
The Senatorial campaign was therefore calculated Ia
present the issue OF legislation OF this sort.
The overwhelming victory Of the Republicans in IN,
Senatorial contests could not have been construed other
wise than approval Of the policies for which th

bushels there only 95OOOO0O available The men who

begin action early the season in the effort to secure
control Of their needs.
with the buyers active the producers can do the wait

order to induce the producer TO let go All delaware
farmers know that TO be true.
With free trade tariff law on the statute books buyers
OF wheat in the United States compelled TO ap-
proach the American farmers with offers for their wheat
They could make their offers to the Canadian farmers
FIRST and having an assurance OF supply 10 their
immediate needs and with sufficient quantity in sight
to more than supply their future needs they could leave
the American producer to hold the wheat and do the
