ject of any good movement. The can
did citizen must confess that if the
policy Of the government upon vital
questions affecting the whole people
is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions
of the supreme court, the instant
they are made in ordinary litigation
between parties in personal actions,
the people will have ceased to be
their own rulers, having to that ex-

strictions are infinitely worse. Laws
can be made regardless of truths,
facts, or science, but they in no way
change the facts or the imponder-
ables. They can, however, promote
ignorance and prejudice.
To prescribe by law what scientific
theory shall be taught in schools is
to bar scientific progress. It is a
reminder of mediaeval days when ad-
vanced thinkers were made to recant
and their researches burned. What
did it profit the authorities to force
Calico to recant and declare that the
earth does not move? Were the
teachings of Christ destroyed when
he was crucified for declaring the law
of love?
Legislation restricting freedom OF
thought and teaching is completely
at variance with the ideals of oul
nation. Institutions, PHILOSOPHERS and
beliefs that are well based can stand
the tests of discussion They justify
themselves in evidences available te
all. 1t is only the cause that is not
sure of itself that seeks compulsion.
We need to guard our institutions
against unfreedom rather than false
teaching which in all good time viii
convince itself of error. From scien
lists rather than lawmakers may we
expect better understanding of the
universe and the things contained
therein. Understanding the universe
means study of the works of grea
creative forces. If we know thu
works, shall the Spirit escape US ?

THE MINERS CHECK-O OFF


The check-off, demanded by the
anthracite miners, is a subject for
loose utterance by those who have no
knowledge of the subject.
The check-off is a development in
the bituminous fields 1t has never
existed in the hard coal section. 1t
was agreed to by the soft coal oper-
ators and miners to stop button
strikes" es"-suspensions caused by min
ers refusing to work with a few ire
sponsibles who neglected to pay their
union dues. Young mule drivers were
the greatest offenders.
Under the check-o the company
sets aside an agreed amount from
each miners wages. This money is
handed to union officials. 1t repre-
sents the miners dues and his pro
| rata payment for the unions check
| weighman, who watches weighing of
coal.
Before the union checkweighman,
some operators depended for their
profits on the coal they stole from
employees through false weighing.
This practice contaminated entire
fields and is still in vogue in non
union fields of West Virginia and
other sections, where unorganized
miners are not permitted to watch the
weighing of the coal they mine.
The union checkweighman has
stopped this stealing. Wherever min
ers are organized they are paid for
every pound of coal they dig.
In urging the check-off, anthracite
miners ask that the system apply
only to those workers who individ-
ually authorize their employer to set
aside the amount agreed to.
From a legal standpoint, this
waiver might not be upheld, but in
that case the union pledges it will
protect the operator from court costs
or other financial loss.
The check-off is peculiar to an in.
dustry that has attracted every known
nationality with their>Babel of ton
CUES. The check-off is development
that has grown out of the needs OF
the industry, rather than by an arbi.
trary decree 1t is successful where
operators are honest in their effort
to maintain contractural relations
with the union and secure strict en-
forcement of wage agreements.
The check-off is an agency Of peace
and harmony. 1t can not function
where an operator signs an agree
ment and then constantly seeks az
opportunity to violate his pledged
word.
