Eugene V. Debbs, who has‘been one of the most potent strike leaders for several years past, delivered an address in Chicago a few days ago, in which he told some, Sober truths about the cost of strikes to workingmen. He has stud- ied the subject well and he speaks the truth just when it is greatly needed. Mr. Debbs not only states that “strikes don’t pay,” but he declares that “all strikes are lost.” He pre- sents a new phase of the strike problem by the declaration that. as‘ a rule, strikes are caused by the employing classes. There is doubtless much truth . in his statement. He points to the fact that when capitalists need a strike to lessen production, they provoke it, “knowing well that their cause is won before the conflict is begun.” Any in- ktelligent observer of the labor troubles of the last few years cannot resist the conviction that many of the strikes are precipitated in the interest of employ- ers. ' A most importantand impressive fact stated by Mr. Debs should be soberly considered by those who contemplate I appealing. to the strike as the arbiter of labor difficulties. He refers to the ' fact that in the late miners’ strike pub- lic sympathy was entirely on the side of the strikers, and in that statement he is quite correct; but when an appeal was made to aid the striking miners ‘when scores of thousands of them weie out of employment and without b1 sad, the contributions received f1 om laboeb organizations and from all sources did not exceed seven cents perIIhead for each striking miner. In other words, the sti ikIers had the sympathv of both the public and the labor organizations, but had practically no iesponse from the.pockets of either. It IiisItr no that the coal miners 1 cached . the end Of the strike by increased wages, but the increase received would not in a year’s time pay the loss Of wages alone-to the miners who stopped work when it was offered, while the employers have certainly profited by it as the increase in the price of coal abundantly testifies. .1 -, There are" Occasions 'when strikes may be a necessity tetrattain justice for employee, but in a large majority of the labor strikes the workingmen bear the brunt of the loss while employers often are fully repaid for the loss they sustained by the interruption of busi- ness. In connection with this fact it will be remembered that nearly every 1ab01 strike that comes is precipitated, not by the workmen themselves, but under the direction and often reckless appeals of labor organization officials who are paid by the organized work- men of the country, 'ostensibly to pro-_ _ .-tec.t.thei.1.' interests. . Thus-in. addition to the losses Which - labor suffers by reason (ifgstrikes, it contributes largely to the laborbfiicials who are often wholly responsible for the enforced idleness of workingmen. Labor strikes are a. necessity under ex- treme conditions, but while any other adjustment of the dispute. is pOssible, the strike is the most costly method shat could be adopted to enforce justice to workingmen. ‘A‘ V r, FEMININE CHAT. Some novelties in buckles show all sorts of odd colored jeWel efiects. A genuine gown novelty is a dinner a costume of white cloth, with a Venetian red silk sash. The white satin shirt waist of the summer will continue to be worn with the winter tailor-made gown. And soon’sun—burn lotlons will give place to those salves said to be effica- cious for chapped hands and lips. It is noticeable that the very latest fashion plates from Paris show the tip- tilted hats as still holding their vogue.

During a recent lecture Mrs. 011 mis- ton Chant, the social reformer, made the sensational statement that the c1 own princess of Greece (Princess So- phia of Prussia) told he1 that “the worst and most cruel foe of G1 eece was not the sultan of Turkey, nor the Turks, but her own brother, Emperor William of Germany.” Sophia married against William’s wishes, which accounts for many things. Admire a baby and the mother al- ways looks pleased. Admire her dog and she 'glares at you. Maybe the rea- son for this is that she is quite sure you do not wish to steal the baby, but isn’t so altogether certain regarding your intentions where the dog is concerned. Mrs. H. A.
