No general strike was order ed by the officers of the union, The employes were apparently what they consider just causes. When such an all-sweeping action is taken.by thousands of intelligent workers, there must be an underlying provoking cause. No one it is an uprising the inflammatory appeals of leaders. that this strike is a mob affair, or that led on by ean say of ignorant or prejudiced persons, On the contrary, everybody will admit that the telegraphers, as a all of them educated the world whole, are men of superior intelligence and ability and thoroughly versed in the affairs of They intimately understand business conditions hands have been upon the commercial pulse of the These men declare that they have been grossly state that they upo They have worked lon that their grievances have been repeatedly presented and ignored. by their employers hours, and arduous hours, for insufficient pay; They demand more pay and an eight-hour day, claiming that they should come under the new order of things in this country. Further, they demand that the telegraph companies shall henceforth supply that costly part of the mechanism used in conducting their business—the typewriting machines, Up to this time the operators have had to supply typewriters at their own expense, thus expending hundreds of thousands of dol lars out of their own pockets to supply machinery which is as necessary for the rapid conduct of the business of the telegraph Without the used to carry companies as are the duplex wires themselves. fast-working typewriters the wires could not be such large volumes of business, No reason, apparently, exists why the operators of the West ern Union should supply typewriters any more than they should furnish other office fixtures and accouterments, wires. or poles or The fact is that the Western Union has followed a saving | policy somewhat similar to that of another large corporation, | goer your wit |headaman's mn the Pullman Car company, which for years has compelled the} people of the United States to pay the wages of its army of por ters on sleeping and parlor cars, while earning excessive div idends for its stockholders. There seems to be no question but what the striking teleg raphers have the best of the argument, on the subject of who should supply the typewriters. of two sides to this question. As to the broader questions of hours and wage’ involved, this much canbe said without dispute: The cost of living all over the country has been steadily advancing and a natural se- quence is a-general demand for more pay upon the part of workers. They are not willing to live more poorly than they have been accustomed to live, while doing the same work as before. As for hours, the growing consensus of opinion all over! the country is that 12, or even 10 hours per day, is too long for | @ man or woman to work under the strenuous conditions of modern workaday life, and that eight hours is enough Slowly but surely the world is drifting towards broader and more humane views upon such questions and is beginning to consider the rest and recreation hours of the toiler to be of almost equal importance to his working hours Just what results. may follow the present strike of the com- mercial telegraphers, it is impossible to foresee Their action may produce wide-spread and even unfor tunate results to business interests the world over. Trade and commerce nowadays are largely dependent upon the use of th telegraph for their most important movements The crisis is already sufficiently grave to demand speedy relief. The National government should certainly step in and see what can be done in the way of settlement of the trouble. There is no question but that this strike will have to be quickly arbitrated or ended in some other manner fair to both sides. Here is the greatest opportunity that has yet presented itself to President Roosevelt.
