Bread and a Stone
Gle vision Sun

(LeW1StOn sum
President Gompers reminds the
mill owners they are not monarchs of
all they survey. Gompers surveys his
monarchy, a considerable section of
it, paralyzed. He comes and prom
Uses bread-and gives them a stone.
Such performance as this trip of
the head of the great labor organiza-
ton to the scene of New England
textile strikes ought to ruin his in
fluence.
If physician treated you no bet
ter than that. or a surgeon, you might
be entitled to damages. for malprac-
tice.
If lawyer led you along on such
a course, he might well fall into the
category Of pettifoggcr or shyster.
But what should the chosen friend
and leader of the wage -carners do?
He should try to get the most Jos
sible for them. Try to get all ad-
vanccs when advances can be got.
Try to avoid cuts when the rates
can be maintained. Try to keep off
the cuts as long as possible. But all
the time get all he can for them.
A man in Mr.. Gompers' responsible
position ought to know the situation
better than to so to workers who
have been on strike for weeks with
no hope of winning and promise them
bread if they keep on. The man in
his responsible position should have
taken the matter in hand before the
strike, and should have kept the
workers at work till he was sure the
threat of a strike would prevent the
cut.
Imagine mill owners employing an
engineer so incompetent as that.
This performance ought to kill
Gompers as labor leader.

Women in the Maine Elections

tBoston Evening Transcript.
Because women who were candi-
dates for mayor in the Maine cities
OF Bath and Saco were defeated in the
elections Monday, it would be un-
safe to conclude that it will be q
long time before there will be women
mayors in the Pine Tree State. DR..
Laura Black Stickney. candidate for
mayor Of Saco, was defeated by only
lS4 votes. Had she won the support
or weight of the 1874 she would
have been elected. The margin IN
favor of her opponent is TOO small to
afford basis for the claim that the
choice of woman mayor in Saco is
out of the question. DR.. Stickney
says the result shows that the voters
do not want woman for mayor at
this time. 1t is reasonable to as

To bob the name, to roll the hose

At least two aspirants for the Re-

States senator will be in Clarks-
burg on Thursday and Friday OF
this week for the annual session OF
the West Virginia Manufacture rs'
Association, according to J. 6.
Prichard, secretary Of the associa-

H. c.. Ogden, wheeling publisher,
who has Just entered the race for
limited States senator. and Charles
Edwards of Huntington, otherwise
known as the man who desires to
go from bedticks to politics." Both
Of these men are members of the
association
Mr.. Ogden, 1t is said, never miss
es a meeting of the organization,
and had his reservation in long be-
fore he had any idea of getting
into the senatorial fight. It is not
known that either Lilly or Suther-
land will be present at the meet
ings, but it is thought that some OF
their representatives will be pres
ent in Clarksburg for the two days
of the convention.
Naturally the West Virginia
Manufa cturers' Association takes
no part in politics as an organiza-
ton. and none Of the candidates for
the United States. Senate or anv
other office or the candidate OF
any party for any position will got
the Endorsement OF the organiza-
ton, but the meeting of promin ent
men from all over the state will
furnish plenty Of opportunity for
political confabs on the side.
