THIS SORT OF THING CANNOT CONTINUE You may remember the old jingle that set forth how for want of a nail the battle was lost. The nail came out of a shoe, from the foot of a horse, that was to bear the rider, who should have carried the message, that would have brought reinforcements, that might have turned the retreat into victory. Something like that happened in The Star office yesterday and Sunday. Eight little gas jets under as many metal pots came near preventing the issuance of a paper at all. ; : ; Everything was fine about the shop but those eight little gas jets. The editor was here, full of bright ideas; the publisher was sticking around full of clever suggestions; our efficient telegraph editor, and our inventive city editor, and our competent news writer, and Cynthia, and the sport chap, and the office boy, and every- ly was here ready to do their bit. And the printers were all here, and our highly skilled foreman—seven or eight of him, indeed—was on hand. : And the pressmen and stereotypers and the engraving room crew and the mailers and wrappers, and cashier, and circulation force and business office, and subscription gath- erers. Everywhere you stepped you stumbled over somebody who was eager to get out a paper, but they, for the day, were mostly excess baggage. Begging, we are sure, the society lady’s pardon. We wouldn’t think of calling her a baggage. Anyhow, because we didn’t have eight jets of gas, the metal under the pots on the type- setting machines did not flow, and the entire establishment jellied and solidified and became inert. We borrowed the gas torch from the popcorn man, and the blow torch from ‘the plumber, and tried to get those pots limbered up, but all day they sulked. In the old days, when type was set by hand, nothing could stop the issuance of the paper except the united disability of every printer on the job. In the old days no gas jet was needed to get out the sheet. Give the tramp printer plenty of elbow room, and keep the copy hook well loaded and the paper would get out about on time. . But nowadays print shops are highly organized; the old hand methods have been re- placed by machine work; most of the work is mechanical, automatic indeed, and one man at a little keyboard sets more type than five printers did in the old days; that is, he does when he does, otherwise he doesn’t. Every year our industry, and even our home life, is depending more and more on a few fundamental utilities, so that the shutting down of one of these stops the wheels all over town, sends us to bed hungry, without light or heat, and may force us to walk five miles to work. This bejng true, it seems certain that the life and business of modern cities must not depend on the whim of labor, or the bullheadedness of capital. There are too many innocent sufferers involved when a strike of 100 workers drives 20,000 people from their homes in search of a hot meal, and inflicts on hundreds of hospital patients dangerous conditions that in many cases may mean death. Governmental regulations of pablic utilities and governmental insurance of continued service must come. | connemers ten be hoped they onjcet porteng SEATTLE HERO (OPPOSE MOVING | LT Here and tac ut least as much ue-ordinary citizens | |§ DECORATED PUBLIC MARKET | pay.
