do something for long-harassed con-
sumers. Whether they were bluffing
or not is of slight consequence. The
significance that inheres in their pro-
nouncement is that it comedies the
inadequacy of securing by law or ad-
ministration that protection which the
public needs and must have if grave
perils are to be averted.
Having admitted so much, the
logical next step was to accept as the
only true solution of industrial op-
preston rigid government regulation,
approximating naturalization Of the
coal industry. In other words, these
arch defenders of privilege are forced
by circumstances they cannot control
to concede that after all is said and
done the people will be helpless and
hopeless just as long as essential
basic industries are dominated by in
dividuals who have only profit
taking interest in them.
When the nation faced the emer-
gency of wining war it was neces-
sary to control prices and production.
Nothing was gained by appeals to the
patriotism of the profteers. The gov
ernment secured from the great mass
of citizens prompt, willing and efec-
tive cooperation, but not from the
coal operators and purveyors of coal.
They were checked in their mad pur-
suit of profits by a maximum price
for their product. Just as soon os
price control was relaxed there was
resumed an orgy of profteering that
continues to this day, in face Of the
nose-pulling of the attorney general
and vague threats that never materi-
allied. "Iron bars do not a prison
make" for coal barons. They are not
susceptible to ordinary methods of
regulation or to the humanitarian in
stincts that control their countrymen.
Senators Edge and Calder realize this
and declare that they are ready to go
just as far as the Constitution will
permit in regulating the industry,
and they offer their remedy after all
other efforts at reconstruction had
ended disastrously.
1t is scarcely possible that anything
so drastic will be attempted, or, if
attempted that it will be corsum-
mated. The government as now con-
stituted has little interest in the fate
of the masses. It's concern is that
private exploiting business shall be
protected, and there will be little if
any interference with profits, no mat
ter how large But it does no harm
to talk about contrary view, and dis
cussion will hasten its coming. When
an earnest effort is made to check
the criminal practices of the coal
people it will take the form of The
threat made by those eminently re-
spectacle conservatives who in their
blind rage stumbled upon the only
real, abiding solution of a vexing
problem.

ORGANIZED LkBOR'S HERIL

Leaders of organized labor are not
Indifferent to the real peril that faces
them. They know that the recent
election has added tremendous I'M
petus to the "open shop" movement,
and they also realize that they arc
about to meet the most determined
effort ever made to prevent collective
action on the part of producers.
Labor haters are demanding the
repeal of the labor provision of the
Clayton antitrust law, the federal
incorporation of trade unions and the
outlawing of agreements between en-
ployers and employees. The thought
back of these demands is to deprive
the workers of their only effective
weapon, the strike. No employer. no
matter how brutal and calloused, OBJ
jects to trade unions that are guar
anteed not to strike against wrongs.
The strike is the thing that the Cham
Der of Commerce and the Menufac-
turers Association are after, and IN
their pursuit they have commanded
the sympathy and support of large
section of the public that should
know better.
1t is reliably reported that one OF
the bills to appear in Congress will
make it unlawful for an employer TO
contract with his men by making it
a conspiracy to agree upon d closed
shop. That will meet in full the de-
mands of open shop advocates. So
much accomplished, the rest will be
easy. Organized labor is effective
only when there is solidarity. In
open shops there is invariably such
rank discrimination practiced as be-
tween union and non-union workers
that it is but a matter of time until
card men are forced to wi .hGraW
from their craft-unions in self-pro
lection.
Federal incorporation of trade
unons has long been advocated by The
National Chamber of Commerce. 1t
sees in this scheme an opportunity to
take the money of the unions. With
control of the courts fairly complete,
an incorporation law would be very
useful in the down-the-line attack
upon trade unions.
The repeal of the antitrust i'm
munity of the Clayton act would make
the injunction a useful and never
failing weapon in labor disputes.
There are judges who are willing to
overlook this concession wrung from
an unwilling congress, but the ma
jority of jurists fairly constru~ its
provisions. It's repeal would remove
all doubt and trade unions could be
approached from the angle of being
combinations in restraint of trade.
The railway managers are getting
ready to put the skids under the
brotherhoods and will be before Con-
gress with number of schemes that
if enacted, will materially curtai! the
legitimate activities of the workers.
All in all, the prospect is r2t s.
pecially happy for the unions. They
will be handicapped at the very out
set by increasing unemployment.
Hundreds of thousands of men. it is
predicted, will search in vain for
jobs this winter. This number will
be gradually increased, until hunger
compels the workers to accept con-
ditions made by the workers without
consultation with them

who have wept long and loud about the
"scrapping OF the constitution" But
the Herald stops short when II comes
TO giving Ar Taylor the benefit Of IFS

Roberts were equally at fault in push
ing the suffrage ratiAcation-whlch. OF
course, is true II we consider II a
'ault- In this connection. the Herald
says:
The Herald cannot therefore see how
no defeat OF Roberts and the election
Il Taylor would mend matters ary.
Why should the republican party be- re-
warded when II showed no more fidelity
o the constitution than the democratic
nartyf Why visit our wrath upon the
one and not the other?"
There Is no Justification for such a
proceeding, and least OF all. on the part
OF democrat in view OF the fact that
that the state and national platforms
and the president OF the United States
had urged Gov. Roberts to tawe the
course he did-and whichh had
pledged himself during his primary
campaign TO take.
The Herald Is also unable TO see any
thing TO be gained by those opposed TO

Gov. Roberts and the election OF n re-
publican governor. In this the Herald
also speaks from experience. since e

The Herald, therefore, without spol-
ogiz'ng for anything that II has said,
in criticism Of the governor or his nd-
ministration. urges the democrats Of
Maury county TO vote for Gov. Roberts
and insure his reelection. II would be
unfortunate to elect a republican gov
ernor with democratic legislature. No
proper reform could be expected In tho
tax laws. The schools, tho highways
and other vital interests OF the state
would inevitably suffer"

Elderly People Need This
In Medicine Chest
To relieve chronic constipation, always
keep bottle Of Dr.. CaldwelPs
Syrup Pepsin handy.

NEARLY all people as they advance
~ in age suffer from chronic constipa-
ton. Many, however, are indifferent to
the laxative they use, on the theory that
"they are all alike" That is a great
mistake.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, for ex-
ample, is mild, gentle liquid laxative,
and it does not lose its effect with re-
peated use. 1t so trains the bowel
muscles that in time medicines Of all
kinds can be dispensed with.
A sixty-cent bottle of DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin will last many months.
The prescription was written thirty
years ago by DR.. w. B. Caldwell, we'll
known family doctor, who is himself
now in his SIND year and can ap-
preciate what chronic constipation
must mean to elderly people; how it
brings on headaches, colds, loss of APP
petite and sleep, heaviness and a
general dull feeling.
Every home that has an elderly man
or woman should be provided with a
bottle Of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
Eight million bottles were bought at
drug stores last year. It is a truly
wonderful constipation remedy.
