BOTHRING THE BOSS.
The “periodic strike” is some
thing' now «in the labor world.
The men do not strike; they sim
ply do not come to work on one
day of the week. The next day
they turn up as usual, and the
output is reductd one-sixth for
that week. The employer has no
remedy but a lockout. A lock
out is hardly a remedy for a de
crease of production, and has not
been used heretofore against men
who are willing to work—when
ever they feel like it.
It is interesting to observe the
progress of labor in alienating
public sympathy and turning it
toward the employers of labor.
At present public sympathy is
often with labor, but when it ap
pears that labor really has a
strangle hold on production it al
so appears that the sympathetic
public is the under dog. Manu
facturers can shut their factories
but how then will the public be
served? Amplitude of production
is the true remedy for the high
cost of living, but where is the
union which approves ample
production? The egregious May
wood in one of his recent speech
es said:
“We don’t propose to speed up
the looms, and we don’t propose
to do as much in eight hours as
we formerly did in ten. We pro
pose to lake two hours from the
ten ten hours of each of 5,000
men, so that 5,000 can go lock
to work. If eight hours won’t
give all the idle men and women
work then we will cut the hours
down to seven, or even six. We
will take from the bosses what we
can ge| today, and we will hold
what we get. Then we will take
more.”
Sooner or later the malice of
such utterances will make itself
apparent to those who buy (In*
goods by Hie shortened hours,
and enhanced in cost by deliber
ately reduced efficiency. The same
considerations apply to public
utilities as to factories. For ex
ample, one railway employe in
England caused a strike for the
right to gel drunk. A general
strike was avoided in another
case because the railway submit
ted to the demand that it should
reinstate the man disciplined be
cause he was fined for being late
to work. What safety ran there
ne when the discipline is of the
railways by the unions, and not
of the employes by the companies
responsible for the safety of their
trains Labor leaders who spend
their time thinking up something
new to “put over”, on the boss
are not true friends of the unions,
and they are lhe declared ene
mies of the public.—New York
Times.
A noted mathematician, consid
ered by many a wonder, stopped
at a hotel in a small town in Mis
souri. As usual in such places,
there’were a number of traveling
men on hand: there was also a
meeting of medical men at the
place, who used the hotel as
headquarters. One of the doctors
thought it would be a joke to tell
the mathematician that some of
the M. D.’s had decided to kid
nap him and take out his brains
to learn how it was he was so
good in mathematics. He was then
asked by them what he was go
ing to do about it. He replied:
“Why, I shall simply go on with
out brains, just as you doctors
are doing.”
“Well, my boy,” saij the visit
or to Bobby, “I suppose some
day you expect to step into your
father’s shoe/s ”
“Oh, I suppose so,” said Bobby,
gloomily, “I been wearin’ out ev
erytin’ else he wears since moth
er learned how to cut ’em down
for me.”
