The great miner's strike which
his been announced for a week
must bo conteai plated with no
small degree of uneasiness. The
strikes always begin-on the broad
principle that the laboring man
may refuse to work if he chooses
so to do and if the infringements
f his rights as a free man leads
'. his refusal the public quickly
nnd justly bestows it sympathy
nd its aid. But thcso are un
satisfying compensations for the
loss of wages and the great suf
fering that inevitably follows. .
In this land of perfect free
dom, too, there is no law that
says he shall not go and secure
employment wherever he choos
es. But the history of these
strikes shows that ho quickly
forgets that capital has any
rights, and soon we may expect
that employers will be interfered
with in their legitimate rights to
employ those who are willing to
accept employment on their
terms. Organized labor will at
tempt to stand between and say
that their fellowmen shall not bo
free to accept employment, and
.persistence on the part of others
to work will, or always does, re
sult in violence and suffering.
The strike, which is lawful in the
. beginning, quickly drifts into
lawlessness, and the destructidn

neighbor aoross the street was swk for
oyr aveek, had two or three bottles
of medicines from the doctor. He used
them forthree or four days without
relief, then called in another doctor
who treated him for some days an 3 gave
him no relief, so discharged him. I went
over tosee him the next morning. He
said his bowels were in a terrible fix,
that they had been running off so long
that it was almost bloodflux. I asked
him i'he had tried Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and he
said, 'No.' I went home and brought
him my bottle and gave him ?ne dose;
told him to take another dose in fifteen
or twenty minutes if he did not find
relief, but he took no more and was
