(By Herbert Quick) ‘We have read much about the la- fbor wars in- Colorado, Michigan, /West Virginia and elsewhere. We thave felt keenly about them. But ‘there is one thing which we have not done, and which we must do, not only now, but in the future. WE MUST THINK ABOUT THEM. We must think about the labor wars of the past and present, and also we must consider the labor wars of the future as they break out. FOR THEY WILL BREAK OUT. That is the great mew thing in American life. Our laws and our governments thave so miserably broken down that labor wars must be reckoned on as a part of our national life. The la- ‘bor union man looks at them from ‘his point of view solely; the mer- chant and the substantial citizen from his; and the social theory. | He is just a plain, NO OTHER. But unless we think of these things more ‘broadly we can never solve the prob- lem. Along thoughtlines of PRE- JUDICE AND NARROWNESS LIES CIVIL WAR, worse than that of fifty years ago. .Yesterday I talked with a man who was a non-commissioned officer of militia in the West Vir- ginia troubles. He is now a hotel clerk—and he has no social theory. He is just a plain non-commissioned officer "of militia, with a great trust in martial law. His ideas of the strikers, the Baldwin-Feltz than those of the solid citizen I met in a law office the same day—BE- CAUSE HE HAD MET THE MEN ENGAGED IN THE WAR. “The strikers,” said he, “were good fel- lows. They were friendly with us all the time. 1 liked thpm, and so did the ofher militiamen. Almost, iall of them were Americans—and you ought to've seen the guns they had. Some of them were old-fash- ioned Springfield rifles with lead bul- lets as big as the end of your thumb | that would tear a man’s vitals out if they hit him. Some were old guns made in the time when they had carved stocks; and a lot of them were up-to-the-minute ‘303’ Savage rifles that will kill as far as any zun made. 1 sure would have liked to get one of those Savages. It was like this, he went on, *‘the mine own- ers refused to give the men their own weighers; and the men thought they were getting skinned on- the toal they mined. Then the compan- ies would pay only for the big chunks of coal they dug, and made them get out the fine coal for noth- Ing. It kind of made.the miners sore to see trainloads of this small coal hauled off and sold, and to think they had dug it for nothing. An- cther thing that they didn’t like was the scrip they were paid in in- stead of cash. The company gave them serip, good only at the -com- rany’'s store, and sold the goods for about twice what they could have #ot it for at other stores. THEY SAID THIS MADE THEM SLAVES, AND IT LOOKED SO TO ME. The aldwin-Feltz men were just rough- cks, grnmen and plug-uglies® who were ‘hired to Yight the miners, and id about $100 a month for doing i My company had no. trouble ‘with the mine guards, or the miners either; but I sure did hope we would get a crack at those gunmen! The miners were just plain workingmen, 5> had got.so worked up that they were ready to die with their boots cn. Tt's a puzzle to me, the whole i It was no puzzle to the solid citizen whom ‘I met in the law office. We spoke of the Colorado war. “A man has a righf to hire zuards for his property,” said he. ““Has he a right to hire an army of them?”. I asked. ‘*The principle’s the same,” said he, “whether ‘it’s one good guard or a thousand.” “Well,” he said, “I dunno about a million.” “Or a million?” I asked. 1 think that he began to see that the principle is not the same—always. mine | guards and the militia were broader’ We must all cease thinking about these things as similar’in princi- ple to the old things:.to which our broken-down ' laws refer. “New oc- casions teach new duties.” If we are to save this country from impending anarchy and civil war, we must think, - § * EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS <« LI Bk S IR R The good citizen doesn’t have any Dback yard—it’s a garden, —Aurora News. 2L The fly is said to feed on filth.
