EDITORIAL COMMENT
Alien By-Products.
The sentiment against agi
tators among workers is but
natural American corpora
tions however have so thoroly
inoculated this country with
foreign labor that the creep
ing in of the agitators is in
the nature of a retributive
byproduct acquired by giving
seven tenths of the railroad,
factory and mining work of
America to aliens. Like the
Southwest Cotton Growers in
importing a lot of Mexican
cotton pickers, they have in
troduced the devastating men
ece of the red boll weevil and
every state in the south will
be expected to quarantine all
Arizona cotton products.
Mining Congress Secretary’s
Interesting Letter.
The American Mining Con
gress in session at St. Louis
this week, according to a per
sonal letter received here as
follows, has taken up a hint
from the editor of the State
Miner to invite representa
tives of the miners to their
conferences, in the hope that
Piesident Wilsons idea of col
lective bargaining might pre
vail among the big mining
companies who have not yet
adopted leasing methods:
St. Louis, Oct 17.
Editor of State MiNER: I
hasten to reply briefly to
your note and will say it is
the purpose of the American
Mining Congress to be abso
lutely fair in our program.
We have invited Mr. Gom
pers, Juo. P. White and Mr.
Farrington, of the Illinois
Federation of Labor, and will
be glad to ha/e other repre
sentatives of labor, provided
no bolshevic radical talk will
be pulled off.
Frankly, Mr. Watson, it is
time America thought along
American lines. We are in
full and complete sympathy
with labor in any reasonable
proposition, and I think from
your knowledge of the min
ing industry you will agree
that no one knows the value
of collective bargaining more
than do the mining operators
themselves, but the tendency
of strikes the past few years
has been toward seizure rather
than local conditions, wages,
or otherwise. Mining opera
ators have been and are com
ing to be and thus far have
been free from many unfair
demands except those put
forth by such radicals as at
tempted to control the Butte
situation awhile back. The
American Mining Congress
counsels fairness in all things
dealing between men, em
ployer or employed. If you
recall a recently published
editorial in our journal, that
I am proud to say I myself
wrote, ‘ Across the Table,”
you will see the attitude we
are taking; but there have
been so many surprises in
the development of unfair,
autocratic labor demands dur
ing the last few weeks, that
one is prone to wonder if it is
not true to a certain extent
we in the U. S. are forgetting
that this is America and not
a country of serfs, like Rus
sia. We will be glad to get
any constructive suggestions
you can make,and while they
may not all be adopted, they
will all be carefully weighed
and some of them utilized.
We strongly want this con
vention to develop something
of permanent value in the re
adjustment of labor and in
dustry back to as nearly nor
mal as can be expected after
a war. We have been delay
ing organization of those fea
tures of our program, await
ing result of President’s con
ference now in session. Per
sonally, just as two news
paper men, allow me ro say
the situation was most hope
ful up to time ol steel men’s
strike. Employers everywhere
were prepared to hold confer
ences, state and national, to
consider adoption of practical
schemes of industrial democ
racy. A sordid, ill-conceived
idea forced upon industry by
leaders of the so-called steel
strike has, I fear, shattered
these beyond early recovery.
Hope I’m wrong, as labor,
organized, .or unorganized,
should not suffer for deeds of
a small group of leaders, be
they in steel, or other indus
tries. This, I assure you, is
my personal feeling in the
matter and written as a fel
low newspaper man in hope
that if I am wrong you will
endeavor personally to set
me aright, or at least give me
your impressinns from your
viewpoint in Arizona.
I hope you can attend our
ARIZONA STATE MINER.
convention and that you will
do what you can to see that
Arizona is well represented
by an exhibition of mines and
mining from your state.
With kindest personal re
gards, I am yours very truly,
John T. Burns,
Assistant secretary.
Next week we shall expect
to give details of the program
at the Mining Congress which
is called to meet in St. Louis,
on Nov. 17-22 at the Planters
Hotel.—Ed.
The census bureau is glad
when it finds a former ser
vice man who cau qualify for
the job of census supervisor.
Os 372 chosen, 100 are law
yers, ex-service men come
next with editors ranking a
close third with over 40 ap
pointments; farmers and ed
ucators are running neck and
neck. Applicants must give
every possible guarantee as
to ability and honesty. Char
acter is at all times a predom
inant consideration for these
census bureau appointments.
