THE ROUGH RIDER AND HIS NERVE
In his speeeh at Wilkes-Barre, Pa.,
lastSaturday, Teddy savagely attacked
Wilson's eight-hour law to avert a
Nation-wide strike and he then and
there declared that the trainmen's
strike could have been stopped by ar
bitration. Nevertheless, he did not tell
his audience that the railway trainmen
positively refused to arbitrate, nor did
he remind his auditors that when
either side declines proffers of me
diation there is no law to compel them
to arbitrate: However, Roosevelt went
on and swaggered to the effect that
President Wilson should havet adopted
his way of settling the strike in the
anthracite coal regions.
We "remember some of the circum
stances of that strike several years
ago, but the Colonel was too much of
a humbug to go into the truth about it.
In the history of the United States-
there will be found a statement that
before Teddy got the strikers and the
coal road operators to arbitrate the
strike had g?rle on for five months.
The strike Caused 160,000 . men to . be
idle, and disorder, violence and terror'
reigned, throughout the coal region.
The state military forces were called
out, numerous clashes occurred and a
number of men were killed or wound
ed. Naturally, there was great dis
tress and deprivation and suffering
among at least half a million people
dependent upon the strikers, while an
immence amount of damage was dope
to the mines and mining property of
the operators. The money loss was
$126,000,000, and besides the,, octual
loss immediately due to five months of
turmoil and distress,, business of every
description was demoralized and de
pressed. That is not all, however, for coal
prices were advanced and even con
sumers In Wilmington' and other far
away places had to pay some of the
most of that, disastrous strike. New
York City, of course, paid heavy toll
in the exorbitant price of coal, while
industries in the metropolis were sub
jected to great hardships and loss. It
is needless to mention the same expe
rience in Philadelphia andpractically
every city in the land.
The Star's readers surely must re
member it, for it was one of the most
disastrous strikes that ever occurred in
America, although it was confined to
a comparatively small territory. In
fact, the situation became so horrible
that the metropolitan papers "urged ar
bitration for months and called upon
President Roosevelt to use his influ
ence to stop the strike. Influence was
all the power he could assert, for the
strike was purely a state affair, con
fined to a small region of Pennsylva
nia. .
Nevertheless, what did Roosevelt do?
Without any power in the Federal con
stitution whatsoever, he threatened -to
usurp the power to confiscate and op
erate the property of the coal opera
tors for the while that the' United
States would seize the mines by force
and operate them by commandeering
the services of the miners. Of course,
that would have been a ruthless viola
tion of the constitution of .the United
States and of the constitution of Penn
sylvania. The government would have
illegally seized the property of the
citizens of the state and abridged all
vested rights, and, furthermore, inter
fered with the personal rights of both
the miners and the coal operators.
Who ever heard of such a monstrous
idea, except in autocratic Russia? It
was a threat to Russianize America,
and the mere attempt Would have been
resisted by Pennsylvania because of
Federal Interference in a purely state
affair. Furthermore, President Roose
velt would have faced impeachment as
sure as he was born.The upshot of it
was that he blustered around and final
ly induced the principals to arbitrate.
The arbitration resulted in a decision
for the strikers, but the coal operators
claimed that their vested rights had
been stricken a blow. They had to re
coup, of course, and they did It by in-.
creasing transportation rates -and the
price of coal. There is where the bur
den fell upon coal consumers, and yet
the innocent bystanders had no voice
in the settlement of the strike.
T,here is enough in all the circum
stances to show what an arrant hum
bug Roosevelt is, 'and. the most serious
part of it is that he, was actually
Ihreatenlng to run amuck in this land
of liberty, contrary to all the limita
tions of the American and the Penn
sylvania constitutions. Now he has the
nerve to boast to Pennsylvanians how
he settled the anthracite-strike by ar
bitration. '
That is the kind of men who gad
about, denouncing the orderly methods
of President Wilson who relied solely,
upon the interstate commerce clause of
the Federal constitution to avert a
Nation-wide strike. It was averted-all
right and hundreds of millions of dol
lars were saved to this country. Wil
son's 1 much discussed eight-hour law
provides for a commission to Investi
gate the issues as they affect the rights
of both the strikers and the railroads,
and upon their report there is to be
final legislation by Congress conserv
ing all the personal and property
rights of all parties, to the recently
pending strike. The eight-hour law
whether right or wrong, is a matter
for the United States .Supreme Court
to pass upon, and at most it gives time
for the government commission, to get
at ail the facts and the law and the
constitutional questions Involved. In
Its'., finality the . eight-hour . law, about
which we hear such a great noise, ob
viously is tentative in its purpose, and
its scope - 'possibly will be limited to
six months and not exceeding nine', as
provided in the act of Congress .known
as the Adamson act. - , '
That is all there, is to it and we
don't seB how any man 'but a partisan
insists on misunderstanding: it and
persists In making political capital of
it. Certainly reasonable and fair
minded men are content to await the"
investigation of the commission, cfiafi
dently sure that Congress in its calm
er moment of deliberation will settle
the whole matter in accordance with
the constitution of the United States.
It is a matter that all of us ought
to be perfectly willing' to leave to the
President and a Congress which can
be trusted to deal finally with a mat
ter of the gravest 'description, too
grave to be mouthed around on the
stump and bandied about among the
laymen. The laymen are not to decide
it at any rate, but the Supreme Court
alone has, jurisdiction to pass upon the
Adamson law, a measure passed by a
great" majority of the Democratic, Re-"
publican and Progressive members of
the. Senate and the House.
AFTER THE, WAR WJLSON.
The Republicans warn the people
that after the war in Europe is over
they will need theRepublican party to
take care of this country.
Ha! Ha!! Ha!!! That is a huge jke.
The Roosevelt panic in 1907, after
Roosevelt and prosperity had been
dinned Into our ears during the pre--vious
campaign, was ascribed by Re
publicans to the waste and destruction
of the Balkan war, which they say un
settled the economic equilibrium of
Europe and consequently unsettled the
great and only administration of The
odore Roosevelt.
What do you think of that? If the
Republicans could not take care of us
after a little two by four war lp the.
Balkans, what the dickens would hap
pen to us after the close of the present
world war now devastating the whole
of Europe, including every one of the
Balkan states, as well as a half dozen
of the most powerful nations in the
world?
Why, of course, the people of this
country may expect the economic
equilibrium all over the world to be
upset to a certain extent during the
reconstruction period. . But, pray,
hasn't it been upset these three years
that Wilson has been "taking care", of
us? Munitions factories in the North
will be put out of commission, as a
matter of course, and the fat and pud
gy gamblers in "war babies" in Wall
Street will have to get off their high
horse and sober up for legitimate bus
iness. That is the reason they don't'
care how long the war lasts and ridi
cule Wilson every time he mentions the
word "peace," for they want war and
more war in their business. "They
wanted war with Mexico and got other
folks to say so for them, in the way of
criticising Wilson for not going to war
with Mexico. At any rate, the indus
tries dependent upon killing off the
world's men need war in order to be
sure of c their prosperity. Possibly,
manufactories of all kinds may slow
down, because the people of this coun
try have a habit of losing their nerve
when they think they "see snakes".
Nevertheless, "economists take the op
posite view, because . the world will
have to replenish its stocks from
American sources ;and resources so
far , as legitimate business and indus
tries are concerned. If we lose our
nerve, that will be Only our fault, but
suppose that munitions manufacturers
are liable to take to calamity howling,
which .is altogether likely if it is not
reasonable, are not the economists rea
sonable in contending that the after
war period will furnish a huge oppor
tunity for legitimate business?
However, the South has nothing in
the world to fear from the end of the
war. If it were to wnd up tomorrow,
every pound of cotton in the South
could be readily sold at 20 to 25 cents
a pouijd for legitimate business in this
country and Europe. Probably that is
a guess, but 17-cents cotton now does
n't say so. Anyhow, there will be plen
ty of legitimate business for the whole
of America to 'get after the war, un
less we want to make munitions profits
out of our regular business.
Then why should we need the impo
tent Republican party, so powerless In.
1907, that it fell down like a stack of
cards and flunked on us on account of
the comparatively little Balkan war?
Oh, but the calamity howlers say the
whole of Europe will dump her gew
gaws and baubles on ub and crush all
the giblets out of us. They pretend
to believe it and maybe they do, for
they are about the most nerveless set
we ever knew. .
For the sake of getting in the game
with them, however, let us say there
may be dumping till you can't rest.
Even so, what would Woodrow Wilson
be doing Vhile the dumping was going
on? Well, if he took care of this coun
try during a world war, set up a new
and powerful system of finance and
performed wonders through , the wis
dom and constructiveness of His admin
istration, he certainly could be trusted
to take care of us f anybody should
dump something on us. ,
Don't everybody know that it is non
sense for anybody to believe that the
Republicans can handle the after-war
situation any better than a Democrat
ic administration? The fact is the peo
ple snouia never- think -.of taking
chances on a Republican administra
tion,' when it is wisdom to let.; well
enough alone and leave' it ail its Wilson.
They ought not to want to awap a, ure
thing: for the -bellows.. brigade that is
blowing madly and ridiculously about
this - country's need of the Republican
party.-.' It - mighf be needed all right;
for the dump heap might need some
mbre feed abdut thef size -of the G. O. Py
After the war is over,' we will need
Wilson. We surely . needed him during
the war and we all know it. We , may
need him worse after the war. but,
anyhow, we need him in our business.
FOR -WILSON WITH A CHECK FOR
810,00.,
A few days ago Editor Wade H. Har
ris threw out the hint in the Char
lotte Observer that the biggest . em-1
ployer of labor in North Carolina had
contributed $10,000 to the Wilson
Marshall campaign fupd' now being
subscribed by the citizens of North
Carolina. It now transpires that the
liberal contributor was no less a per
son than Mr. R. J. Reynolds, of Winston-Salem,
head of the great R. J. Rey
nolds Tobacco Company.
The Reynolds company Is capitalized
at $20,000,000 and it has made Winston-Salem
the largest tobacco manu
facturing "city in the world. It also
has made the Twin City the greatest
industrial city in North Carolina. Mr.
Reynolds employs a host of working
men. and he is a man who has a world
wide reputation. His brother, the
Hon. Charles. A. Reynolds, is one of
the leading Republicans in the state
and was lieutenant governor during
the adrhinistration of Gdvernor D. L.
Russell, Republican, from 1894 to 1898.
Mr. Reynolds Is a man of great busi
ness ability and foresight, and it is
significant that he has the utmost con
fidence in President Wilson. It is said
that Mr. Reynolds was specially mov
ed to support the Wilson administra
tion because of the Reserve Bank act, ,
which he regards as the greatest finan
cial legislation, in the history of Amer
ica. He thinks at alone ought to re
elect Wilson. He Is right
CURRENT COMMENT.
i It is perhaps a fact that any' Re
publican President would have inter
vened in Mexico, and that-is. one rea
son why we prefer to vote for any
Democrat that happens to be running
against their ticket. Durham Herald
(Ind.)
In connection with the meeting of
the Southern Commercial Congress at
Norfolk In December, there will be a
meeting of the Southern Cotton Con
gress for the purpose of "building up a
program" that will tend to meet con
ditions In this country in relation to
the cotton crop after the close of the
war. It is also intended to devise some
plan to be submitted to Congress look
ing to co-operative effort in the enact
ing of a system of national legislation
in behalf-6f cotton. In this endeavor,
the two associations named, will have
the assistance of the commissioners of
agriculture from the different States.
Time was when cotton appeared to be
lacking friends , but that time has
passed. Charlotte Observer.
The cheerful confidence which the
President expressed in his address to
the Pennsylvanians at Shadow Lawn
Saturday was not assumed. It Is based
on a variety of Indications from a
variety of sources. The recent ova
tions to Mr. Wilson in Nebraska and
Indiana and, indeed, all along the
routes over which he traveled cannot
be explained away. Even those who
are opposed to him acknowledge that
they have a deep significance. But it
is not only from ordinarily doubtful
states that we are getting the confi
dence in the Democratic nominee.
From the enemy's country come -the
same tidings. Illinois in doubt, Ohio In
doubt, Wisconsin in doubt, New York
in doubt, and possibly even Pennsyl
vania in doubt. In what campaign
heretofore has it been necessary to
send a Republican missionary such as
Roosevelt to a region like Wilkes
Barre to prevent its going Democratic;
and. when did it ever happen before
that the siren song of protection failed
to excite an enthusiastic response in
a state which has fattened on the eco
nomic system of special privilege. But
now even Colonel Roosevelt, with all
his personal popularity, cannot arouse
enthusiasm among the coal miners for
rhis cause or his candidate. The weekly
polls which the New York Herald is
making tell the same story. And they
are the testimony of an unwilling Wit
ness, of a witness who -would like very
much to make a different report. The
Herald can see no suggestion of a
landslide, but it is forced to admit that
the race is extremely close and that
the President continues ';to gain in
every part of the country to which its
poll extends. That a comparatively
small number of votes here and there
throughout the United States may de
termine the majority In the electoral
college is frankly admitted by this
supporter of Mr. Hughes. There may
not be a tidal wave for either candi
date, but if -there should be for either,
it looks very much at present as If It
would be for Mr. Wilson. And this not
because Mr. Hughes is not a man of
ability, personal integrity and sincere
patriotism, but because he Is heavily
