HAS KNOCKING BECOMEA HABIT?
Despite its efforts to conceal the fact
under a dubious coating of humor, the
Industrial Worker, in perfect keeping
with the usual policy of its present
editor, continues to swing its little tack
hammer in the effort to deride and lie
little every attempt to give stimulus to
the industrial and business activities
of the camp. Why this should be wo
are nt a loss to understand, for. even
with the limited mental capacity con
ceded us by the kindness-of the ethical
editor, we can see that it is as plain as
the proverbal pike staff, that every
effort made tending toward a better
ment of existing conditions, even
though the result of such efforts lie
most meager, will ultimately redound
to the benefit of the whole community,
the miners union and Industrial Worker
included. Every dollar so attracted will
help the community In some degree and
even if the result be not in keeping
with the effort, It is an absolute surety
that the Industrial Worker or the min
ers union, whom it represents, will not
lie a penny ttie loser as a result.
Wo cannot feel that the attitude of]
that paper towards the efforts now be- j
ing made to relieve conditions that are
not conductive to the present or future
prosperity and wfil being of the com- I
munity. a whole, or of the individuals
who compose the union, reflects either
rlie spirit of tlie rank and tile of tlie
miners union or the newspaper com
mittee who are presumed to guide the
destiny of the Industrial Worker, or
is it conceded by tlie committee that
knocking such endeavors, either by
Innuendo or sarcasm, is going to prove
a benefit to the members of the miners
union'.’ We cannot presume to usurp
the perogntives of the Industrial Work
er by speaking for the union, but wo
are rather certain that the balance of |
the community is more or less depend- 1
ant on the prosperity of the camp for I
their bread and butter, and we Judge j
that, unless tlie miners who compose j
the union derive their subsistence from
the altruistic manna distributed so lib
erally by the ethical editor, they too are
somewhat dependant on the same con
ditions as ourselves. Is a deliberate
attempt to nullify, even under the
guise of wit. efforts made to secure a
betterment of conditions, a reasonable !
and suieolent means of obtaining j
them'’ We, as well as the rest of the
community, would like to know.
As before remarked, we cannot be- |
lleve that in this regard the question
able witticisms of the ethical editor,
reflect either the spirit or the attitude
of the members of the miners union,
; hence we deduct that such uttera ices
are merely the spleenetic attempts of
tlie ethical one to slain tlie management
of the Nugget for some fancied griev
ance. If this is the case, well and
t
good, for tlie prefervid utleranoes of the
worthy editor will do us no harm
Neither will the "knocks” of ttie Work- I
er cause us to desist from our efforts
to secure, from any source, such bene
fits as will help the community That
we are "grinding our own axe,” as sag-«
gested by the ethical one. is cheerfully 1
admitted. Whatever benefits the com
munity benefits us also, and if we ex- i
l peet a return for the work we have un
| dertaken can we be blamed" Is not
! the "laborer worthy of his hire"” That
! our efforts may prove abortive will not
] diminish, in the least, the credit of (
i having tried to foster and help every ]
movement that gives a prospect of
procuring something to benefit the
community and in this we are egotis
tical enough to believe that we are I
doing a public service, for we are not '
asking aid or assistance save in a man- J
nor that need cost no one a red cent.
Whether we derive a benefit matters
not. we will at least have the satis
faction of knowing that our efforts wen
in a good cause and we further know
that such efforts will be ultimately ap
preciated by all who look with favor
on a policy that tends to build up,
rather than destroy.
INTERESTING LETTER
FROM FRED WEILER
Here in Tacoma we have quite an
exciting time regarding oil, and the
streets in front of the oil offices were
jammed with peoplo looking for dope
and also many buyers of stock. Peo
ple were very cautious, having been i
stung on several occasions, but at that
and in spite of much knocking and
hammering, many thousands were in - ;
vested. This knocking was the cause
| of me losing many dollars, being
strange to me and not knowing the in
side I did not buy on Discovery at 25c
the sharp, but like a chump wailed and
bought at 11.75 and this was the night
before the cap was taken off and tests
made, and now it is $2.50 and $3.00 per
share and as soon ns a commercial flow
is assured 4t will run up to $5.00, blit
it is like everything else, a gamble.
I have bought shares in adjacent leases
which will commence drilling in a few |
days. I had a talk with the discoverer
who told me that there was oil but that
he did not know how much. The stock
at this time was withdrawn and ho was
r.iuch unconcerned whether people pur
chased or not. only he did not want
peopel to buy who could not afford to
lose; he is a pretty square sort of a
chap and strikes a person with confi
dence. T did not go to the uncapping
at Tenino as I knew an immense crowd
would lie there; in fact some 3000 were
in attendance and after some of the
oil was bailed out they became quite
enthusiastic. Beverly Dobbs was there
with bis machine and took a movie,
which I saw this afternoon. After the
first view was shown an announcement
stated that now a view of hundreds of
placer miners from Alaska, whom were |
present, wotilfl he shown and the first
man 1 recognized was Oilmore waving j
his arms. The film was moved so fast
that I could not grasp any of the others
and they were nil jumping around so
much. Had I known that so many
Alaskans would of been at the on
■upping would sure of been there just
to see whnt was doing.
Well let us hope that oil is here in
abundance. It will mean much for
Tacoma and in fact for thewhole state.
The oil is parraflne base and high
grade, have seen much of it and It looks
dandy.
Have seen many movies of the war
and they sure gel a fellows goat and
makes one wish that they would quit
as soon as God will let them; seems
funtiv Tiow these men can be so jolly
and full of laughter in front of a movie
wave their hands and throw kisses
when on the morrow they will possibly
cease to live and also leave their fami
lies fatherless at home, and all for
"what?” At present we only see them
mobilizing, at hospitals, trenches filled
with thousands of dead mixed indis
criminately with the remains of horses
only being covered with the earth. We
see the ruins of Relgian villages and
cities, see the artillery bombarding, a
also firing from the trenches, but as yet
have seen no hand to hand battles,
only the havoc after the battles. To
night I am going to see the fall of
Antwerp as the German shells art
dropping in the city and the crumbling
of the city This will be the first pic
ture so far of the real action.
When you see a picture of Germans
in captivity, they are not pleasant tn
look at—look like a horde of caged
beasts wanting to break loose—not a
smile on any of them.
There does not appear to be .as much
interest taken in the war out here as
one would suppose. Presume it begins
to pall on the people. You don't see as
many people standing around the bul
letins as you see in front of the Nugget
1 and the news is just as conflicting as
ever, and a fellow gets sick of reading
it.
Have had many rides in autos, and
tliis city has its streets paved in all
directions; many of the country roads
are also pnved. as also tho Mt. Tacoma
read on which my brother has a small
i ranch and wayside Inn, about 20 miles
from Tacoma and take one hour by
auto These autos certainly bring long
distances very closely in, and to take a
I hunting trip to Hood's Canal, 100 miles
' l'mm here, is nothing.
The weather has been pretty wet, but
| have had some dandy days which is
| certainly a change from those cold
I blasts up there. Have not worn an
overcoat since 1 left Nome.
Well John, there is nothing more of
any note at present, and when 1 write
'gain will possibly pick up some news
'f. tlie Nomeltes out Ibis way. There
i are none over here ns they all stick In
Seattle or San Francisco. Bob Chestnut
i: t he only one I ran across living in
jtltis village. When I get my premises
i Used up will then have some time to
pick up some dope. I am expecting a
I letter from you and hope Nome looks
prosperous for the winter and that the
l:. O. T is doing <>. K.
Regards to At, Russ, I’d and Charlie
the tonsorialists t Pinky, Burger, in
| fact all of my friends and a whole
' hunch of regards to yourself. Felix
ays that he concedes that you are no
I match for me at pool hut might have
