The miners had a right to qnlt

Shope in. There Is where the whole
trouble lies. "When the miners quit, if
they had gone away there would have
been no further trouble. Or If they
had remained away from the mines,
there would have been no trouble.
To compel the men to work would
be unlawful. For them to interfere
with the operation of the mines is un
lawful. Sympathy is always with the
laborer. If the operators had violated
the law half as often in the present
strike as have the miners, the coun
try would have risen up in arms and
wiped them from the face of the
earth. Prejudice is against them.
Their position of ease and comfort
is against them, while the poor miners
and their starring wives and children
are in evidence about the scene of
operation.
Jt is a case of wearing out process.
The officers can only remain and pre-i
vent the miners from violating the
law so far as possible. After awhile
they will either have to come to the
operators' terms or the operators will
have to come to their terms. No one
can compel either to do that which he
does not want to do, so Ions as each
attends to his own business.
What could Morgan do? What
could the president do? Whan can
anybody, except the miner? and oper
ators do They are the contracting
parties. It is no one else's business
Suppose Morgan should tell them to
Quit fighting; suppose Roosevelt
should tell them to stop! They would
simply laugh and tell them to mind
their own business.
If the president should attempt to
atop in and settle the coal strike,
differences , he would soon be expect
ed to settle every little case of trou
ble in the country from petty law
suits to family quarrels. He can only
apply the law when a place is open
tu apply it tt is all that can be done
by any one. No one man or set of
men can act without the pale of the
law.
It simply reverts back to the old
proposition. Government is founded
on law. Attempt to change it and
vou would shatter the foundation.
The only course to pursue is to apply
the law when it la needed and the
other differences will adjust them
selves In the course of time.
Settling the strike is not within the
province of any man or officer. It Is
with the men who have differences
and they have the law to aid them.
