THE GUT, A. EOSCOWE'.S, - - - - - - EDITOR. Entered at the Post Ouiee in Goldsboro, N. ('., as iecoul-ias: matter. UATTLED011O, N. C. ' Thursday Evkxixo, April 5, 1SS8. THE .OLD, OLD STORY. Thepitiablecondition of the deluded miners iu the Pennsylvania coal regions who followed the blatant counsels of to an ignorant crowd of gaping loafers, llje dishonett demagogues, who profes- j He who cannot find time to read nev- - , , , , . er finds time to be a man, but is al fcionally ixse as labor leaders, is set ' ' '. . ! wavs t;ie tool of some man who does - 11 a butions 'addressed to the workingmen of the Union and of Canada. It says that "for months to come, hunger, ' want and death will be the lot of wa rty good people unless immediate re lief is forthcoming.' And yet this circular is signed by three of the pro fessional disturbers of employers and employed, who have profited from the strikes and lived in ease and corn fart at the expense of their misguided victims. Of eo'irse, the helpless and starving condition of these unfortu nate people calls for the generous aid cf all humane people. But they sliould see to it that none of their charitable donation go in to the hands of these rascally pretenders who have brought all this sorrow and distress upon the suffering miners and their families. The sermon afforded by the forego ing text has betn written and preached time and again, but its words seem to have always fallen in stony places, "While workingmen's unions and labor organizations might be utilized for beneficent advantage to those who j belong to them, it is strange that they are permitted to be used by designing and unprincipled men to advance their own selfish interests and to maintain themselves at the expense of starving labor.,. The disaster that has followed every recent scheme of these dema gogues, whose autocratic authority is countenanced by the organizations they control with an abject servility that , ijfc without a certain share of bother would have debased a serf in the dark- j ation is under a very serious mistake. est days of feudal authority, suggests the question whether it would not be wisest to dispense with them altogether, until such time as tl.ey may be estab lished on some more rational basis than they now are. There is an unwritten law hi this enlightened land between employer and employee that the form er will deal justly ca long as the latter is deserving. There is not an indus try in the country where the employer can fail to appreciate the advantage of having reliable and competent employ ees, and so long as the employee man ifest las interest in the affairs of his employer, proves himself efficient and worthy, so long he is entitled to and tshould receive indulgent considera tion. That as c general rule he does, cau be attested by observation. That there are exceptions there is no doubt, but were the public not continuously harassed by the murnuu ings and dis contented complainings of senseless labor cranks, a sentiment would soon spring up in every community that would regulate any unjustness on the part of employers much more effectu ally than by the always questionable method of strikes. Wfr en men choose to be their own mas ters they will receive a new social regard that niu-t forever remain in abeyance so long as they consent to serve as the vassals of ignorant, dishonest and heartless demagogues, yeleped by loud sounding titles officers and leaders of workingmen's labor organisations. , . . o No Time to Read. We dislike very much to hear a laboring man say he doesn't have time to read, because nine times of ten we know he. utters a falsehood when he says it, and nine out of ten of the men who have no timo to read spend their time loafing . on the streets or around the beer counter and billiard i 1 table. The cases are very rare, mde.ci, J whare a iau has no time to read ono or even three or four weekly papers each week if he wants to. It is be cause he 4ias not interest enough in has own welfare to read and post him self on the events that are transpiring for or against him. He is content to let others do his reading and thinking for him. The class of men that claim j they not have time to read are a CUrse tO ttie ConUUUnuy IU WIliCU in; j , . c .1 i hve. in?y h ve minrls of their own. , -..d. hw.y- as i,orai:t 23 a iioliontot. 1 they are used by the sh-.rpers of tkoir town and neilvbo; hood to he'p tiiein carry out schemes to thwart the will of the C(h:cv:tctl arid respected citizens. The tunn who doesn't have time to read is usually ; loafer, ''"he success ful man has plenty cf time to read and post himself on matters pertaining to his business, and that is ona reason why ha is successful. The educated laboring man finds plenty of time to read, and without neglecting his wok either. lie iJ the man whom you will find at home ewnings with his . family. The nail keg in the corner grocery is never kept warm by him while he listens, or tells smutty stories i read. henevcr we hear a u an say he doesn't have time to read one pa per a week we always pity his w ife and children to think they "have such an Indolent, ignorant, do-little hus band and father. o rJevspape;' Tii:.!s. One of the great trials of the ne ws paper profession is that its members are compelled to see more of the sham of the world than any other profession. Through every newspaper ofiice, day after day. go all the the weaknesses of the world all the vanities that want to be puffed, sll the revenges that want to be reaped, all the mistakes that want to be corrected, all the dull speakers that want to be thought elo quent, all the meanness that wants to get its wares noticed gratis in the editorial column in order to save the tax of the advertising column: all the men who want to be set riht who were never right; all the cracked brained philosophers with stories as long as their hair and as gloomy as their finger nails in mourning because bereft of soap all the bores who come to stay five minutes, but talk five hours. ! Through the editorial and reportorial rooms all the follies and shams of the world are seen, day after day, and the temptation is to believe neither in God, man nor woman. It is no sur prise to us that in this profession there are some skeptical men; and only wonder that newspaper men believe anything. Do Not Tret. Any one who exoeet.s to not through It is in the hnmsue nature of affairs for petty vexation? to arise, one can hardiy tell hovr or wherefore; and he is a wise man who being aware of this fact, does not allov himself to fret or fume over annoyance that every body has to encounter, and which can not be helped. Fretting does not pay. To the con trary, it is always practiced at a loss of time, strength and temper, ending in a great loss of happiness. Fret tors are much more ant to indulge in their silly habit of pessimism concerning small matters than greater ones, and imaginary troubles are quite as likely to be the object of their disquietude as real ones. And if they have noth ing real to worry over they will con jure up something with which to make themselves miserable. Nothing is to be gained by fretting. Ycu si.iiply make yourself miserable by so doing, more over, you are almost certain to make your family and ! friends uncomfortable. Remember this, ye ffetters, and fret no more.
