On September Il, the anniversary
OF the Battle of Brandywine, the
Wings of upper Delaware and Ches-
ter county, Pa, held a party rally on
the battlefield. and this celebration
was seized upon by the Gazette as a
/ favorable opportunity for driving
home it's most venomous shafts. The
/ Battle of Brandywine. il set forth, was
/ a victory for the British army. and in
/ thus celebrating it. the British
Wings" of this country We're traitor
ously expressing sympathy for their
/ brethren of Great Britain. Imagine il
you can" commented the Gazette, as a
fitting comparison TO this occasion,
ten thousand valiant soldiers of
/ France assembling on the battlefield
of Waterloo and joyously celebrating
their defeat"
This hot shot" this perversion of
what was proposed and conducted from
vastly different motives, aroused the
Delaware State Journal TO indignant
verbal reprisals. and the editorial bat
tie became really furious. Said the
Gazette in its issue of October %, in
| firing the final shot from its battery:
/ I'VE admit that this is a sore place
| To touch British Wings upon, and they
/ evidence a tenderness by Wincing
! whenever you approach it. Our
neighbor makes dreadful splutter
about our 'toryism' and recommends
a coat of feathers for us" Possibly a
coat Of tar was intended as we'll. but
! the Journal did not go that far. The
Gazette, however. expressed no fear
Of such extreme measures being re-
sorted to by its exasperated political
opponents.
Ii is altogether probable that much
| OF the savage aggressiveness of the
Gazette was incitei by the severe att
taclxs the Journal was able to make
upon the Van Buren administration
by reason OF the prevailing state Of
| financial and industrial depression.
and the astounding defaleations BY
Federal officials during the previous
Il three years. To these the Gazette
could not make adequate reply and
did not attempt TO. 1t merely ignored
these unpleasant incidents as though
they were not.

NEW ERA SEEN FOR
 BRITISH INDUSTRY
Solid Labor Conditions in
 England for First Time Since War Believed Near.

London, Oct. 7.-England, which has been heckled on every side ever since the armistice by strikes, believes it sees the dawn of a new day that promises a solid labor condition foundation for the development of in dustry.
 Many things besides labor condi- tionS have worked against the re- eovery of manufacturing in trade. But, given a more stable condition in the shops and among the ranks of the unions, business men are hopeful of meeting other obstacles Turning Point Looms They believe that the turning point has arrived. The ordinary citizen, who | thinks of strikes in the form of per sonal inconvenience. is hopeful of more comfortable winter than he has known in three years. There is better spirit prevailing between employers and workmen," Premier Lloyd George declared. | There is a better outlook in the in dustrial world than we have seen for long time.
 'I believe the common sense of our people is growing weary of incite- lockouts and threats of direct ac- ton; of sterile party strife.'' T The Prime Minister may on occa- sion give emphatic expression to what | he wants to believe and what he I wants the nation to believe, as dis tinct from what he actually knows conditions to be. In this instance his ] measure of the situation is amply supported by declarations of labor | leaders.
 I Last Resort for Strike | That the strike should be used as 1 the last and not the first resort Is the contention of J. H. Thomas. chief of the National Union of Railway i men, made in a recent speech. Herbert Smith, acting president of I the coal miners. at the annual con | vention of the Federation, read a lecture to his followers on the rad ical tactics which lost them public sympathy and which finally lost them the fight in the recent coal | strike.
 ''The war left the miners with an exaggerated sense of their power" safety men (pump men) and break ing down the pits we lost public sym pathy, and today the miners are
 paying the price of their folly in
 prospects of a good settlement by
 sticking to the wages pool, which the
 public feared was another form of | nationalization.'
 House of Commons and president of
 the Federation of General Workers
 numerically the largest union in Bri-
 tain. has Followed with a warning to
 labor.
 Political Weapon | Recent industrial events." he de- | clared, have tended to restore the
 political weapon of labor to its > proper place.
 'The belief that the strike weapon
 can accomplish anything has reced-
 ed. We should not be deceived into
 employing the hunous methods of
 physical force for obtaining a mock
 cry of working class conditions"
 These declarations do not mean
 that a truce has been called in the
 industrial world. The Miners Fed
 eration proceeded from Smiths
 speech to outlining a platform of de-
 mands, including 3O-hour week
 Clynes proceeded from his peace the
 SIS to an attack on employers for
 showing no mercy in cutting wages while unemploym figures were 1 high.

 rations mean fewer strikes
