DON'T UNDERSTAND
Some people seem not to understand
the position of the editor of the Chron
icle on the labor situation in spite of
the fact that we have tried to make
clear our position many times.
We believe the miners are entitled
to every cent they are getting for dig
ging coal. We believe that some of
the outside workers are getting high
er wages that they should have, com
pared with what many thousands of
other persons are forced to accept.
We believe the railroad workers
except section men depot agents and
that class of labor are receiving an
unreasonable high wage for the ser
vice they render. - -
We like to see everyone receive good
wages and enjoy reasonable labor
hours, but we like to see, and believe
there shoud be, a much stronger show
of a desire to earn the dollar good
and full, instead of just "get by" as
seems- to be the case with most labor
today.
One of our warmest personal friends
took us good naturedly to task the
other day because he seemed to think
we are opposed to labor unions in
general. We are not. We strongly
favor collective bargaining, but we
are utterly opposed to lawlessness In
any form and under any "excuse and
feel that the labor unions, that are so
Snsistantly demanding fjull and un
trammeled rights, should be the last
people, to violate the law under any
pretext. We always have and always I
expect to oppose law viola ion from I
any and all sources. liriefly stated!
that is our position.
The editor had the pleasure Sunday
of accompanying T. F. Brown to the
Harry Martin farm a few miles west
of town, and enjoyed a splendid feast
of watermelons.
That was not the only pleasure in
store for us by a walk over tlie
farm we saw corn that will produce as
high, as 60 bushels to the acre, a nice
bunch of some 30 head of Hampshire
hogs that Mr. Martin will turn into
a field of corn and soy beans to fat
ten for the market. He also has some
40 head of sheep, either purebred or
good grades and 28 head of cattle of
like quality. One of the most pleas
ing things that is forcibly brought to
one's attention is that there is not a
single head of scrub stock on t?ie
farm, from chickens to cattle. Further
more there are no scrub ctops on the
farm, for Mr. Martin is not only a
farmer of long experience, but he is
very watchful, reads farm papers and
is glad to receive from any source any
information that will make his farm
a more successful factory for feed and
food.
Each year he produces about an
acre of watermelons that he markets
and gives to his friends. It is hard to
tell which -brings him the most pleas
ure to have a number of friends to
call on him and enjoy his hospitality
or to turn a load of fine luscious mel
ons into cash.
He now has 28 acres in corn, three
acres of which he remarked to the
writer "is not much, did not expect
much when I planted it but wanted to
get the land in shape for other crops."
The remainedr of his corn will range
from 35 to 60 bushels. He estimates
his crop this year at 1,000 bushels.
Within the past year he has built a
new house, which it not yet fully com
pleted, and he is planning to build a
good barn this fall or next year. His
farm consists of 300 acres, about 100
acres cleared and under cultivation or
in pasture. This farm is recognized
as one of the best and most success
fully conducted in the county.

We heard an instance rece'ly where
a mine operator complained because
the coal miner spent his money for a !
Ford car. This same mine operator 1
did not own a Ford but he did own a
car that cost as much as several Fords
We see no reason why a laborer:
should not spend bis money for a car j
if be chooses to do so jttsl the same
as an operator. There should- be a
small measure of consistancy on the'
part of operators as well as union men.
There has been much condemna
tion by the labor organizations of the ;
injunctions recently obtained by the
government against prospective law
lessness and destruction of property.
The unions seem to fail to recognize j
that the injunction will injurre no one '
who does not wish to violate the law.

The labor unions demand the right
to picket, but think it a dreadful in- 1,
justice for guards "to be placed around ;
propetry to protect it from lawless I
cLCtS I
That course is on a par with the !
idea that the right to quit work be-:
longs to every one, an at the same !
time declaring that no one has an
equal right to work unless he is a
union man and then only under union
iorders. The labor uniorrs do not say
that in words, but do say it very forc
ible by lawless acts.
