DIVIDING STATESI : ."
T~^ ASTERN politicians have objected to the admission to .the

-But now a means of self-preservation appears in the movement
to divide.the State' of Pennsylvania. Its" motive is the domination
of Philadelphia in State politics. Pittsburgh a large city and the
coal, coke and iron industries, to which the State owes its economic
greatness, have, Pittsburgh as their; natural metropolis: Hence it i s
proposed to divide, cut Toff Western Pennsylvania ancj set it up as
the State of Allegheny^ It would have a population of '2,000^000 and -I
a complete. circle of such permanent industries as would guarantee
its growth. |K§|| * y

THE CHICAGO STRIKE.
THE proposition to splicit the attention of the" President \u25a0 to the
strike in Chicago removes that e vetit from its local theater and
\ gives it a national aspect It is quite* doubtful whether .the
grounds -exist that were present \n the coal strike. -That struggle
affected interstete commerce in coal, a prime necessity, ,of life, >at a
season* when* it was" most needed. The coal famine affected ;the
• Government- itself, by threatening to* stop Hhe supply* of ,hcat ;.;aind
* light in the Federal buildings*, at Washington, by which the^-public
business would have been suspended, * In that .strike the issues
werp direct and judicable, in which respect they differed sharply
from Che present issues in Chicago. * * * • .•
' *The firm,. of Montgomery Ward* & Co., a large mall order
house, Jiad a dispute with their, manufactu^ring .employes. .They had
• v *a contract with their teamsters, made with their union, that was
. satisfactory *to. both parties/ These teamsters, were called out. by
4 their national organization, t and, in disregard •of their ; contract,
struck,* with no question of hours or 'wages involved, but avowedly
fbr the purppse of compelling Montgomery # Ward & Co. -to make,
a contract satisfactory to their other employes, not connected wi.th
the teaming of c the 'firm. * Montgomery Ward &* Co. 'oftered. to ar
bitrate the- matter with their teamsters, . and Mr. Shea, the presi-^
den£ of tHe National Teamsters' organisation, declined/, saying that*
•\u25a0*as the teamsters have, no "grievance there was nothing to arbitrate.
This seemed "to be in disregard of the rights of the firm./ It had a
grievance because its teamsters had' broken their contract. * But
jtliis.cwas not regarded^y Mr. Shea as 'important or entitled to ajbi
tration.,, *: * . V* ! * -\u25a0 *" • •"" ... «
.altVwfll'jbe observed- that, up to -this point th& dispute presents
the .same issues tha'f-were involved. in the railroad strike of', 1894.
purposed that' was to compel railroad coippanies to forfeit
-- their contracts -with the Pullman [Company in prder* to -compel the
latter^ company, under duress, to change its contract -.with its men.
The members of the American Railway Unipn obeyed the 'orders
* of Mr. Debs and struck, at the same time declaring that' they bad |
00 «. grievance against their •' respective employers. This ' «left noth
4 to arbitrate, except the grievance of the: employers, wKich Mr.
' Debs, like Mr. Shea, did not consider; worthy of attention." * * .
Hi is conceded now* in Qiicagd- that* if Montgomery Ward &
Xo". c had' violated the contract 'with their, teamsters, the latter would j
Have had relief Jn the courts, which would have" compelled* the*, firm
to^ perform its contract. -The teamsters /being, in "a voluntary _or
"ganization, and' not being either firm or. a'. corporation,. and riot
.possessing either partnership or corporate property* can jsafely vio
late its contract, leaving the firm -without redress.. This .is a-situa-.
tio^that deserves the closest study, by- the "labor leaders of the"
countrj% Their policy is for.; collective bargaining for labor, the
making of a CQllective, contract. -But. a contract^ is : 'vain -unless it is
c .bilateral. r It ; rriust imply mutual •' responsibility an.d,. obligation^ If
one party to it enter into an* undertaking witHout the -power to per
form it, the'eontract is void or* voidable in'law. ;- ** . • ." • . '
Ther ccc c caa be no- unilateral contract in such a. matter. A con
tract that -Hinds' only\one of "the parties is, .ac vain thing, that* has
ono standing in law. Analysis of- such .a, situation bdngs ; into strong,
relief a policy that t is intended .to; compel an employer- to ."make a
contract" which binds* him to -its' ekecution but .leave's ihe other
party free to violate it* at. will. /This is the situation in. Chicago that
has involved the whole' teaming' trade of that city."* Our institu
tions are. founded upon the freedom, and equality of contract. The
recent decision of tHe United ' States -. Supreme Court in the New
York tert-hour .case affirms the principle most -positively. The in-"
telligent lab'Qr leaders must see. that if their principle of : collective
contract is to meet with .public favor it rriustc6hforra t to the 'law Of
contract^ by' providing- mutuality of responsibility.. ' *
c If the present issue in' Chicago is settled .by the President or
ajiybody else opon the theory* that the emplo5 r er*rnay," by Violent in
terruption of his business, be* compelled 'to make* a collective-con
tract which "only he.'must keep, leaving the dther party* free to
: violate it, as'ivas done by ' Montgomery Ward & Co.'s teamsters, it
will not be a permanent settlement. It is tHe practice of # s"hort
sighted men to inveigh against the courts' and to .denounce govern
ment 8 fey injunction when they have compelled a community to
, choose between that and government by-a mob. But "one* thing is
cerfain — the courts will hot" enforce npn-mutual contracts; .If a col
lective cQntr^ct is non-mutual, as* Mr.. Shea insists that it is, if is
no contract at all, and by insisting upon this feature collective bar
gaining-, destroys itself. •' •
These questions are sufficiently intenesting without going into
tHe unpleasant features of the affair, -the daily mobs, and * violence,
whi^h arje the disquieting features of labor disputes in this country,
especially in^ our large cities. Such things forfeit the support of
public opinion and' cannot be justified upon any theory consistent
with personal liberty sup/ported* by law. No good citizen can be* an
indifferent spectator, while personal and ' property- 1 -' rights are
*abridge*d by surrendering to lawless violence. Jt becomes the duty
'of^all such to appeal to the law and the duty of. its executors is to
rigidly enforce it. When Ihe supremacy of the law makes 'the
public streets and highways safe to every citizen and gives to ( eacli
complete protection, iji the* pursuit*of his vocation and; the earning of
his bread, the labor organizations of the country \vill be great gain
ers.-jfor then everything affecting their interests will come to a just
judgraentj unaffected" by prejudice and passion, fear, or coercion. ,

club's headquarters; and, being thirsty,
the Judge, drank v great quantities of,
the water, regardless .*bf the fact - that
it was roily with sharp sand. A"! ter
eating a hearty dinner the weary man
of law went to bed •Immediately after,

into, a slight delirium.

a piece was split "from the tree -and
under It was found ; the record, cut r in

it in the ; relief.' It seemed remarkable*
and * the story, was ; well 'told and !j lis
