TBE MERT oF “IT.
‘The infortunate condition or aff:
which has resulted in thirty_or
forty: ‘men leaving Rossland each
day,. to seek employment in the
statés, is not pleasant to contem-
plat from the standpoint of a busi-
ness" man or from. that of the. wage
edtner, but it: emphasizes. the fact
hat is..not unwise to let well
i * alone. What has forced
tliége-men to leave? Was it be-
cause. they were not ficient!

that they will not do so.

As for the Record, the publisher
of this paper is-a hearty advocate of
unionism in’ so far as-it maintains a
fair wage ~ scale, for. every ‘mai ‘is
worthy of his hire, but- when-it
comes to any class of men dictating
as to how a‘mian shall run his basi-
ness, it is time to quit. The Recorp
has fearlessly taken a stand in this
itter, as it-does in ‘all questions
of public welfare, and will continue
to do.so. It has come'to the know-
ledge of ‘the publisher that the Min-
ers’ union «andthe Tailors’ union
have ‘threatened to boycott ‘this
paper. .If such:a course is a:source
of satisfaction, well and.. good, and
if any merchant. chooses to --sacri-
fice -his -principle by withdrawing
his patronage from this ,paper,

well paid? Not at all. It was be-
case; as stated in their petition,
they threatened to strike and paral-
yzé ‘business and industry if “the
eight hour law were ‘repealed, and,

through bi it hasthe
public welfare sufficiently at heart
to speak out _and not straddle. im-
portant questions, why, the -Rec-
ORD will rideavor to live without
such. patronage. BG may suffer a

alttidugh it is not admitted, it is

Ken for granted that the mine
owners have simply asserted their
position by closing their proper-,
tie’. thereby depriving several: hun-;
dred mén of the means of earning a
livélinood. These men have been,
ig $3.50 per day of eight
hours, and now they are going:
back whence, they came to seceive
the same, and in many elses less
money, for ten hours’ work. Foi,
be it known, that in no state in ‘the
union, extept Utah, does the eight
hour law, with its restricti
exist. In every state, such :
has. been declared unconstituti
In Utah, it does exist, simply by.
reason of the fact that the legisla-
ture is permitted by the constitu.
tion, to enact such laws restricting
the hours of labor. - It is .only: 4
