UNIONIzATION
SHOULD FOLLOW
COAL ACTIVITY
Owners Must Produce
At Any Cost Now
BY PATRICK
worker correspondent.)


PITTSBURGH, Pa, Nov. l. The
price Of coal in Pittsburgh as in every
place else is mounting higher and
higher. The Terminal Coal & Coke
company here refuses to sell even at
$1,000 ton. The only way they are
willing to sell ahead is at a blind
price," meaning that the buyer will be
willing to pay any price that is asked
at the time of delivery.
The companies are holding all their
coal for foreign buyers who, in desper-
alton at not being able to get coal,
are outbidding each other. Italy, Nor
way, Sweden, all OF South America
and other European countries are en-
tirely dependent on other nations for
their coal. Germany cannot furnish
enough scab coal to England and still
supply home market. England has
none to sell because of the British
miners strike, therefore all countries
are turning to America, willing to buy
at any price just to get the coal.
Admit Price to Raise.
All Of the companies claim that the
price of coal will not go down, but
mount even higher. In the Westmore-
land and Connelsville fields an in
crease in wages will go into effect
Nov. 1.
The Keystone Coal & Coke com
pany, the Greensburg Coal company,
the Irwin Gas Coal company, and the
Berwin White Coal company have
posted notices of an increase in wages.
Many of these non-union mines have
raised the wages higher than, and
some almost as high, as the Jackson
vile agreement.
However, w. G. Warden, chairman
of the board of directors of the Pitts
burgh Coal company, whose mine pays
rs cents more than the Jacksonville
agreement, says that his company has
no intention Of again resuming the use
Of organized labor. He says that when
the demand drops back, the wages will
be reduced accordingly.
The cry of all nations is for coal
by fair means or foul. They must have
coal to carry on their industries. The
coal operators know this and are
raising their prices to suit themselves.
The Increased wages in the non-union
mines are only a sham. They will be
lowered again as soon as the supply
of coal is disposed off and the demand
has ceased.
II the miners do not know this, it is
time they woke up and looked around
them. They cannot let themselves be
lulled to sleep by this sudden increase.
Where Is Lewis?
Suppose America now Joined the
British miners with their own demand
for a living wage and union organiza-
ton Of unorganized fields, now at the
crucial moment when coal is des-
perately needed. Would not the coal
operators be forced to give in to rec
ognize the union and assure the miners
of continually receiving the wages
they are now getting at this temporary
short prosperous period?
Why does not Lewis and his fiunkeys
see the splendid opportunities offered?
Why does Lewis continue to keep
quiet? But the miners know that
Lewis has never yet done anything for
their good. II they want anything, If
they want to be assured of living
wage they must go after 1t themselves,
and fight without Lewis.

in substance, that when we get in

never far from the Source Of all

Blackburn who has been teaching

has become of the old fashioned
farmer who maintained that blowing
covering of snow under was equal
to coat of manure? 1t is our
guess that he made an assignment

Mr.. Fosters Letter
/ I was somewhat entertained IN
reading your article in the Demo-
crat, relating to the half pint peach
brandy that was purchased in 1875
and made at the ThoTla digtillery.
1t recalled to me an incident that
took place when / was a very young
boy. | had a severe attack of diph-
liberia. My folks secured a bottle
Of peach brandy at this distillery,
and / had to take that as a medi-
cine to help cure the attack | we'll
remember the incident, but do not
remember anything of the taste of
the brandy. No doubt, it was made
the same way that the brandy was
made that was purchased by the
party referred to in the communica-
ton, in 1875. That is 81 years ago.
Quite change has taken place
since that time At the time of the
adoption of the 18th amendment,
the manufacture Of liquor from
fruits and grain had been syndi-
Gated and possibly there was no sim
gle, independent distillery then in
existence in this country. AS strange
as it may seem to you, and the fact
that you have no acquaintance with
me whatever, yet | hear your name
mentioned even in this far away
city. A daughter of the late Cir
cult Judge Frazier resides here. Her
husband is Theodore Shaw. L
think he at one time was either
auditor or deputy auditor of your
county. I hear her mention your
name occasionally. daughter OF
the late Judge Chambers, at one
time a resident Of your county, was
here a few years ago; she remen1-
bers you and spoke Of you. Tbs
girl is a grand opera singer and has
had quite a diversified career in tie
eastern as well as the wester n
hemisphere. l appreciate your ar
ticle and other articles written by
you very much.
