C. A. RICHARDSON. Compulsory Arbitration ? Editor The Times: Sir.—in an editorial in the Sunday edi- tion of the- New York Herald on the strike of th>> Amalgamated Association against the United States Steel Company occurs the following: "On one side we have «n army of work- men who are losing ;!:• Ir wages, to th injury oC their wives and children, and on the other side a vast number of ;>•:- sons, including women and children, de- pendent upon the Income; from securities of the great corporation. Not only are all these persons on both sides injured, \u25a0but there, is possible far-reaching disturb- ance of business interests involved in a prot racted struggle. "The public has as much Interest in such a controversy as either of the par- ticipants, and arbitration of such dis- putes should' be compulsory." Is it not time that some earnest, hon- est effort was b( ing made by the press of the country to educate the people to the true morality of the relations between labor and capital and their relations to the law of the land. Tho evils of such a state of affairs as the Herald alludes to are largely due to Lhe cowardice of politicians and capital- ists amd the ti'uculence of a 'large por- tion of the public press to party behests. Xo one has more sympathy with the laborer than the writer, but ho believes that \u25a0 the laborer is as amenable to law as anyone else. The laborer has a per- fect right to leave any employment which is either unpleasant or unprofitaKe-, but he has no right to say that his place shall not be tilled by anyone who is will- ing to take it. and the moment that he Intimidates, threatens or assaults the man who wants the place that ho has given up be becomes a law-breaker, and ought to be restrained or punished by resort to the law. If he enters into combination or conspiracy to interfere with the lawful management by his iate employer of his property and business, he becomes a law-breaker, and puts him- self in rebellion aca.inst the law and may he punished by prosecution or by a suit for damages. When the number. in the combination or conspiracy is so large that these legal remedies cannot avail to protect the property owner a.nd business man, the remedy by, injunction is the only available means of defense except force. That remedy is no new thing, but a very valuable, essential and anti- quated protection provided by t;he nation- al a.nd State legislation in this country and in use for centuries before this gov- ernment existed. The legal rights o? employers and em- ployed axe very we'll known and clearly defined, and it seems to me that no arbi- tration is possible between those who wilfully defy tho la.w and those who seek merely to manage their own busi- ness in their own way under the law. Such editorials as the one referred to seem to me to encourage violation of law by a class of people who may be and doubtless are deceived and misled by leaders who are either as ignorant as their followers or else they are of the m-oi--,t class of criminals. W. Enthusiasts— even visionaries— but not worst class of criminals. Wo have known many of them and 'have found them sin- cc-re and striving to upbuild their fellow- workmen, but not always wisely. These leaders often exercise a vastly more con- servative influence thaai our correspond- ent imagines. In the present case. Shaf- fer and Williams wanted to settle but wero overruled by their constituents. As to the question compulsory arbi- tration if a decision! were enforcable the labor leaders and their followers should protest. Sncfti a power might be perverted into the most grinding tyranny. But there is no way to enforce such an arbitration. Even if it should be decided that the men should return to work, what power can make a grown man work against his will? The whole idea is ab- surd.—Editor. CLIFTON FORGE. VA..

Mich., became so confirmed a believer in the efficacy of faith that he believed himself able to take poison -without any ill effects. So he took twenty-four grains o f morphine thn other day. The next morning he ap- peared sick, but triumphant, and told of his feat. He said he had vomited up the morphine and felt no serious ill-effects from taking it. The. success of this test probably encouraged him to go further with his experiments, for he bought a revolver and declared his intention of proving that ho could shoot himself with- out fatal results. He then went to the front yard of his house, and, placing the revolver U> his temple, fired. Death was instantaneous.

According to specialists in oil drill- ing, riic method employed at present in Texas oil fields is more apt to ruin many wells than to increase the num- ber of" producing drillings. It seems thai the machinery used almost en- tirely iii the Southern oil fields is of the rotary type. That is. the bit or drill is clamped by machinery that turns ii round and round, and thus bores into the soil, bin ii is princi- pally in the auxiliary methods thai the great damage is done. Water is pumped into the casing that sinks gradually into the bored boh-, and this water is apt to gaiin so great a pres- sure thai it.exceeds the upward pres- sure of the oil level. Thus the oil is forced backward and 2is actually prevented from flowing to rue top. In this manner The experts claim that many profitable wells have been closed oui forever. The big strikes have all been in enscs where the oil pressure was remarkably strong and the down- ward pressure of the. water was un- able to bent (he oil back: It is $10.- (?'::) line io einply ii:is method of oil boring in the older oil fields of Penn- sylvania, and it would be wise if the authorities in Texas were to pass a similar measure to protect, the Texan oil-bearing sands. Drilling for oil is not as easy a thing as it would seem to be from the accounts of enormous dividends held out by the alluring prospectuses. The Baltimore Herald, in discussing the price that the Texans are- paying for learning the oil business, says: AMATEUR OiL DRILLING. Whole families are trying to sub- sist on rations tliar would not be enongli Cor one child, and the presence of the "spotted"' or hunger typhus adds 5o the horror, of the situation. There are no sufficient supplies on hand by tho government, and as the: peasants Lave sold all of their horses in order to provide some pittance of bread for their daily needs they have no as- sets ;•\u25a0!'! which they can turn into food. One of the effects of this fam- ine is the occurrence of a rare disease known as "Twilight Blindness." So long as the daylight lasts the peasant has fairly serviceable eyesight, but with -the setting of the sun they be- come entirely blind and have to be led home. What between the famine and the efforts of Germany to ex- clude Russian wheat, where there is ing a hard time. Crop failures in Rus- sia mean hunger, fever, blindness, starvation, misery and death. Here a crop failure like our last Kansas scare, U'? example, means a. higher juice for wheat, perhaps -but not a single death. Surely this is a land of plenteousness. able to iin'c-t the present famine condi- tions. The report that six hundred thou- sand people are starving in the Eliza- betUjrrad viistrict in Southern Russia shows the liavoc that can be wrought in even the richest farming; sections by Jack of scientific mot hods and fail- ure iv use labor-saving machinery. Thi:> district w.'is once the richest in jßussia agricultural prodncts, be- ins the celebrated Black Earth Belt. but it. was worked so thriftlessly that its natural fertility gave out and in ISO 2 a terrible famine visited that district, front which Llie peasants have nev< r recovered, and they are to-day suffering from the loss of power of re- sistance that makes them doubly un- A REAL CROP FAILURE. STATE BAR ASSOCIATION. The meeting of the State Bar Asso- ciation, which lieuiiis to-morrow morn ing at the White Sulphur Springs, will give an opportunity to the law- yers of the State of Yurginia to as- semble and discuss a number of ques- tions that will be brought up before the Constitutional Convention, in addi- tion to the usual matters that are solely of professional interest. The Bar Association has done valuable service to the profession and the State since its formation by giving an op- portunity for the members of the pro- fession to stimulate each other in the pursuits of better legal knowledge and methods and in the maintenance of higher ethical standards. Auiong the actuul benefits to the efficiency of Saw as a means for do- ing justice between man and man and for simplifying the transaction of busi- ness one of the most important has been the promise of legislation looking towards the Torrens system, which '5s a direct outcome of the agitation of this matter before the State Bar Association by those gentlemen who are interested In h. Chief among ihesc is Mr- Eugene C. Massie, and from the interest awakened by his papers, there system of registering the tities to real estate which bids fair to take form in definite legislation. The result achieved by the Bar As- sociation in thN single field, to men- tion no other, is the example of the benefit that comes from concerted ac- tion, and we trust thai The £ood work will be kept up in other lines demand- vantage of the meeting w 11 be the opportunity afforded many members discuss 'i.c important questions be- fore tlua body, both with I\u25a0. se who ore jintl those who are not members of the Convention, but are none the less familial" w.ith the needs of Vir- giuia. We uotict> the satisfaction ex- pressed by the Maryland papers over the work of their Convenilou, which •has just held Sis annual session, and we have no donUt/virglnia will have equal causa to be -jjratiiicd with, the wage scale for all the mills, union and non-union, by his conference of Sat- uvday, .Itily 27, with the further right to get such new members for the union us he could without discrimination. It remains to be seen whether he can Improve on these terms by open war. As far as it appears from tlie vari- ous accounts sriven of the second con- ference between liie strike ]<-:s<l<'r> and Mr. Morgan, the point at issue Kevins io have been whether or no those mills should be reeofrnized :*s union in which unions have be™ formed since the declaration of the strike. It is under- stood that Mr. Morgan refused to al- low the recognition of the recently formed unions in these mills, and on this point the conference split. If there "was any display of temper or any brusQueness of manner :; is to be regretted on .-ill sides, for conduce nineli to the settlement <\u25a0'!' ' strike to have, as far as possible, tl relationship between the leaders oi two opposing forces marred by no per- sonal animosity. But this apart, i appears to us, that as a question oi policy, it was unwise for President Shaffer not to take half of a loaf wiie i refusing to do so exposed him to the certainty of having to make a Mil Ji^ht if he expert. <l any bread at all. The principle of freed* in is strongly ingrained in the American nature, and no niatter by what route t;: : end may lie obtained, we feel a nviaeed that the final outcome of the dispute be- tween capital and labor will !\u25a0<\u25a0 set- tled '\u25a0:! Hi" hasis tliat the laboi*er shall be free to work in a factory whether he bel \u25a0!.•; to tin- union or not, and that tli" t , ioyer on iiis part shall not dis- crin v: to for or against the laborer tv -i union. Had President Sbaff< r ac- cepted the terms which were original- ly report d as offered, lie would there- by have placed all of the mills on the union scale; would have prevented any discrimination against the union mills: would have obtained the union scale for tho non-union mills, and would have had full opportunity to gain mem- bers for Ihe union in the uon-uuion mills. The union in the latter case would have had 1o show thai it was of value financially and otherwise to its members. In other words. Presi- dent Shaffer would have been in a ]K>siti(in to gain a number of new re- cruits in the non-union mills under the promise of the steel corporations that they would not be discriminated against if the union could offer any inducements thai would make it worth the non-union man's while to join. Tliis would have brought the ques- tion to The basis of actual worth of the union to the new members, and if upon this basis the union could show iL^s value, it would undoubtedly have pained large acquisitions. As it is. the action of President Shaffer will temporarily set a premium on non- union labor, and may, if the matter Is pressed to a final conclusion, have the effect of inducing the steel corporation in iis nun to make war upon organized labor. In either event the result will not be one that will be contemplated with satisfaction by the public. There Fh'inlj be no objection to a man loin- ing any union he chooses. I'.ut on the other hand, a man who has his time to sell In tha open markets should be allowed tv> do so at such times and on such terms as to him seems good.

Compulsory Arbitration ?Editor The Times:

Sir.—in an editorial in the Sunday edi-tion of the- New York Herald on thestrike of th>> Amalgamated Associationagainst the United States Steel Company

occurs the following:

"On one side we have «n army of work-men who are losing ;!:•Ir wages, to thinjury oC their wives and children, andon the other side a vast number of ;>•:-

sons, including women and children, de-pendent upon the Income; from securitiesof the great corporation. Not only areall these persons on both sides injured,

\u25a0but there, is possible far-reaching disturb-ance of business interests involved in aprot racted struggle.

"The public has as much Interest insuch a controversy as either of the par-ticipants, and arbitration of such dis-putes should' be compulsory."

Is it not time that some earnest, hon-est effort was b( ing made by the press ofthe country to educate the people to thetrue morality of the relations betweenlabor and capital and their relations to

the law of the land.Tho evils of such a state of affairs as

the Herald alludes to are largely due toLhe cowardice of politicians and capital-ists amd the ti'uculence of a 'large por-tion of the public press to party behests.

Xo one has more sympathy with thelaborer than the writer, but ho believesthat \u25a0 the laborer is as amenable to lawas anyone else. The laborer has a per-fect right to leave any employment whichis either unpleasant or unprofitaKe-, buthe has no right to say that his placeshall not be tilled by anyone who is will-ing to take it. and the moment that heIntimidates, threatens or assaults the

man who wants the place that ho hasgiven up be becomes a law-breaker, andought to be restrained or punished by

resort to the law. If he enters into

combination or conspiracy to interferewith the lawful management by his iateemployer of his property and business,

he becomes a law-breaker, and puts him-self in rebellion aca.inst the law and may

he punished by prosecution or by a suitfor damages. When the number. in thecombination or conspiracy is so large

that these legal remedies cannot avail to

protect the property owner a.nd businessman, the remedy by, injunction is theonly available means of defense except

force. That remedy is no new thing,

but a very valuable, essential and anti-quated protection provided by t;he nation-al a.nd State legislation in this country

and in use for centuries before this gov-

ernment existed.The legal rights o? employers and em-

ployed axe very we'll known and clearlydefined, and it seems to me that no arbi-tration is possible between those whowilfullydefy tho la.w and those whoseek merely to manage their own busi-ness in their own way under the law.

Such editorials as the one referred toseem to me to encourage violation oflaw by a class of people who may be

and doubtless are deceived and misledby leaders who are either as ignorant astheir followers or else they are of them-oi--,t class of criminals. W.

Enthusiasts— even visionaries— but not

worst class of criminals. Wo have known

many of them and 'have found them sin-

cc-re and striving to upbuild their fellow-workmen, but not always wisely. These

leaders often exercise a vastly more con-

servative influence thaai our correspond-

ent imagines. In the present case. Shaf-

fer and Williams wanted to settle but

wero overruled by their constituents.As to the question o£ compulsory arbi-

tration if a decision! were enforcable

the labor leaders and their followers

should protest. Sncfti a power might beperverted into the most grinding tyranny.

But there is no way to enforce such anarbitration. Even if it should be decided

that the men should return to work, whatpower can make a grown man workagainst his will? The whole idea is ab-surd.—Editor.

discrimination against the union mills:would have obtained the union scalefor tho non-union mills, and wouldhave had fullopportunity to gain mem-bers for Ihe union in the uon-uuionmills. The union in the latter casewould have had 1o show thai it wasof value financially and otherwise toits members. In other words. Presi-

that they would not be discriminatedagainst if the union could offer any

the action of President Shaffer willtemporarily set a premium on non-union labor, and may, if the matter Ispressed to a final conclusion, have theeffect of inducing the steel corporationiniis nun to make war upon organizedlabor. In either event the result willnot be one that will be contemplatedwith satisfaction by the public. ThereFh'inljbe no objection to a man loin-ing any union he chooses.
