RIGHT AND UPRIGHT. Since the great railway strike and consequent riots and uisorder of 1877, there has been no strike of such magnitude as the present strike of telegraph operaLors Both the number of strikers quite 25.000-and the interest in volved make it a strike of unus ual magnitude.. For a long time the operatives in service of the Western Union TVkgraph Company have been restless and dissatisfied with the conditions under which they worked. Taev wesr reaoy, on the slightest jusU.ying excuse, to quit theirs keys .without giv ing a note of warning. A non-union operator, a woman employed inan Oakland, California office accused a union operator, a man employed in the Los Angeles office, of insulting her. The man was discharged. A strike follow ed which, within a few hours practically put the W. U. T. comDanv out of business. This was followed by the operators employed by the Associated Press quitting their keys, and it is possible the railway telegraph ers will quit work. The operators demand fewer hours for a day's work, increase of wages, a more equitable wage scale and recognition of their union. Because of their long day's work, and their insufficient pay put lie sympathy is, and rightly so, in favor of the operators. Their work requiresahigh degree of intelligence, preat skill, and unfaltering fidelity. To be subjected for many con secutive hours to great mental and nervous tension is the hardest sort of hard work This is the characteristic of a teleg rapher's work, and the conten tion for a shorter day and better wages receives general approval. When it comes to demanding that only members of the teleg raphers' union shall be employed the case is wholly different. Strong arguments are not lack ing in support of either side of this contention. No objections can lie against men of the same or of ditferent pursuits uniting for the advancement of, their own best interests. Not only have they both moral and legal ghts to do this, but they should be encouraged todoso. Whatever, then, is objectional in unionism does not lie against the union per se but rather against the methods employed to gain cov eted ends, some of which are utterly selfish, un-American and wholly indefensible. The at tempt to gain such ends is nearly always made through methods in which force, physical force, is t:ie main element. Men must be forced into the unions; employers are to be forced to employ none but unionists; forced into com pii.inee with whatever demands the union may make. In contentions springing up under such conditions and con ducted by such methods little permanent good is gained, but the general public is wronged, outrageously wronged and may be excused if it becomes impa tient and angry over a situation for which both employers andj employes are responsible. No remedy is at hand for the inconveniences and deprivations suffered by the people; none that promises immunity from similar conditions, though the present strike were settled. The public SO, 000, 000 of people will not quieliy and patiently endure these things forever. Already may be heard suggestions of a remedy which bodes no good to the telegraphers' union nor to the telegraph companis. j WILL Ha v r HIMSELF. One might naturally suppose that Haywood wou!d now gladly retire from public view and quiet ly go about his own business if hei have any. Possibly it is better he dee.- not do so until he has repeattdiy demonstrated the truth that not only he but many of his followers are 'undesirable citizens." He gave convincing evidence of the truth of this at Chicago a few days ago. It in rather re markable that in a city where anarchists and ultra socialists do most congregate Haywood's audi'j; ct, includiing women and children, did not exceed 4,000. We care nothing for the man Hay wood, his tether is lengthen ed and he will hang himself presently. Some of his ut terances, however, express more 4. 4.U 4.1 T 1 T7 truiii Limn tie mteiius. rur m- . sr.axiee. ne SaVSI IOU union men ' . UiUOt nub give auj aiULllCllb UL contract of any kind whatsoever to an employer." Why this man date? Are American citizens not to enter into contracts, make agree ments with employers? Not if he is a union man. But suppose a union man has opportunity to make an agreement with his em ployer that will secure him steady and lucrative employ ment for a term of years; why may he not do so? Here is the answer: "As individuals you are but units in tne . grand chain" that is, "chain" of unionism. One of the weightiest object ions to present-day labor unions is that they absolutely destroy the individuality of their mem bers. The skilled, industrious, rugai, seii-renant man is given no greater consideration than the weak, dissolute, lazy botch. In fact men ot this latter class more frequently provoke strikes and other troubles than any other class. All are but links. Each alone is of no value whatever none to the union, none to the industrial world, none to him self. The tyranny of Nero re spected the individuality of men no less than these unions do. , It will not be for long. Ameri cans are too intelligent, too capa ble ot self-government, too pro foundly democratic in thought and purpose, too patriotic to long submit to any sort of tryanny. Labor unions and corporations alike will be brought back with in their appropriatezone of action and will then exert" only benefi cent influences upon the lives of men.
