stances they ‘violate the rights of la-_
bering’ men far more than they protect.
Inall Gases laborers have the undoubted right to refuse to work for wages
they think too low. To protect themselves ‘they ‘have a right to combine, .
batin saying that all workmen shall
receive the same amount of money, re~
gardless of the services rendered, they
are pursuing a suicidal policy and good
‘workmen are deprived of a Jarger comthan that received by the
, or utiskilled laborer. The miner
who thoroughly understands mining is
to some extent a skilled laborer, and it
ig unjust to ifm to say tliat he shall bé
compensdted the same as the man who
pushes cars or is employed in shoveling.
Every Jaborer has the right to compensation for the work he performs, and
~~ amy set of men Who endeavor by organization ‘to control the wages of work~
is guilty of the violatiqn of the
ts of working men. The effect of
such a course is to declare that all labcr
is equal and that the man who by patient industry and study has qualified
himeelf for intelligent and effective labor is no better than he who is unskilled in his business. No such combination can be made without being based
upon the theory that every laborer is
equal, and here is where the injustice is
done to good workmen. The laborer
ought to be paid in proportion to the
skill and industry which he manifests
in his business, and this is usually the
case, Of this himself and-his employer
are the.sole judges, and any man who
interferes for the purpose of controlling
the matter is more an enemy of the
employed than the employer.
The fight of the workman to make
his own bargain and to receive such
wages as he is willing to take for his
labor, is ag sacred as any other right
claimed by American citizens, and
neither societies or combinations have . ~

from the eastern part of the mine, from

and the ledge extends some 3,000 feet
