MACHINISTS ABLE •TO TAKE CARE Of Ftllsbury. N. C.. Oct. 24.—Secretary S. A. Grier, of the' Machinists - Union, thU mornthg Issued a statement con 6.' earning the stand taken by his brother machinists In the big strike. The Southern railway yesterday sup- planted the 160 regulars and the forty apprentices with about 70 men. taken from the cars under heavy guard. They we’ra under Detective Haney, of the Southern, when they alighted from the cars, but they were not In the least ‘ disturbed. Statement of Grier. Grier’s statement follows: "At least ten days before the strike was ordered our committee submitted to Mr. Spencer, general manager, a proposition of 2 cento Increase for ma chinists and 1 cent for apprentices, which was a very material reduction of our Brat request. After finding that he would not agree to that, we assured him we would recommend favorably to our men at home nny proposition he would make us along the line of a sub. stantlal general Increase. He declined flatly to consider a general Increase of any kind, claiming that If he-granted such an Increase to one class of em ployees that nc would have to give to all other trades a general raise ft wages. Left to the Officers. "Our committee returned home, leav Ing the matter In the hands of our grand lodge officers, with the under standing that If no adjustment could be reached the men would be ordered out On October 8 the call came; the men. knowing their cause was a just one, quit work quietly and the strike was on over the entire system. After being out four days, we received proposition from the company that If we would return to work Haturday, Oc tober 18, that the committee would be received early the following week and an honorable adjustment could be reached. A vote was taken and tho proposition voted down unanimously, the men claiming that as the company had been unfair with the committee at different times for six weeks and had not offered what we considered a fair proposition, that wa had no reason to believe that they would be any more fair after we had resumed work, and that we should know what we were going to receive before we returned to work, t Returned to Washington. "Then a call came from our grand lodge officers for our committee to re turn to Washington to meet the com pany again. We did so, and the general manager proposed to us the question of arbitration, as published In the papers of ths 20th and 21st Instant. "In the meantime the committee of the boilermakers and the committee representing the pipefitters, tinners and coppersmiths, were In conference with the officials of the road, and secured satisfactory settlement for tile men they represented. The boilermakers receive practically a 2-cent flat In- create, Just what we had Informed Mr. Spencer that we would have accepted ten days before the strike was called. And the pipefitters, coppersmiths and tinners were granted Increases for all their men varying from 11-2 to 3 cents an hour. Machinists 8aid "No." "Considering the foregoing facts. Is It at all natural to suppose that the machinists would be witling to arbi trate for what we had agreed to take before we went out, and what the com- No Sympathetic Strike Will Follow Troubles of the Union. There will be no sympathetic strike on the Southern railway as a result of the strike of the machinists. Reports from Washington, published In several newspapers; were to the effect that all the union men In the shops of the Southern railway may be called out In a sympathetic strike. The local machinists and labor union offi cials knew nothing of such reports un til Wednesday morning, and they did not hesitate to express the opinion that they are wholly false. 'We don't believe In sympathetic strikes," said an official of the ma chinists' union. "We have not, nor will we ever, ask members of any other union to leare their work In sympathy, for us. Wo are fighting our own fight. We Intend to win out by our own eftqrts. The men are determined. They are confi dent that they are right and that the people generally so believe. "The Idea of a sympathetic strike Is something new to ms, In connection with the present trouble between the Southern and the machinists. It Is true that there Is no prospect of an Immediate or near settlement of the difficulty In sight. 1 believe so strong ly that I may say I know there won’t be a strike of sympathy by the other union men of the Southern." After seeing' this prominent man In ths machinists' organisation, one high up In labor union circles was shown a dispatch published In an out-of-town newspaper In which the report of a threatened sympathetic strike was given. "The Idea Is preposterous, ridicu lous," he sold. "THe machinists' union Is strong enough to win Its own fight. A sym pathetic strike Is a back number, any way. Sometimes It does good, but It has been my observation that It usually results In more harm than benefit. "If all trades were Joined together under one head and In just one or ganisation, It would be a difficult question. As It Is the machinists be long to one union, the boiler-makers another, the carpenters another, the blacksmiths another, and the llremen another. Bach has a separata contract with the Southern. Do you think the International would let the men vio late these contracts at will? •The union that most of the talk Is about would be the last one to go out on a strike. This Is the boiler-makers' union. Why, they have Just received an Increase In wages of 10 per cent. Now, wouldn't they be a pretty set of fools to go out on a strike? "And then, ns I said before, the machinists don't need any help. They belong to a strong organization and are amply able to take care ol them- selves." pany considered fnlr to give to others? our men said 'No,' and we think our stand was Jus% taken. "The boilermakers nnd machinists have always been considered on tho same basis by the Southern and have been paid the same rate of wages. Then why shnuldr we be called upon to ar bitrate for what the company gave them? "Referring to the statement publish- ed as to the rates being paid the op- r rent Ices: Instead of receiving from 1.25 to 81.75 per day. the apprentices are paid the following prices: For the first year, 74 cents; second year. »« cents; third year, 81.10. and the fourth year, 81.26 per day. Also, that we are not making a demand for a shorter day, but that the whole light Is for a slight Increase of pay.” BRAINED GUARD WITH AX; CONVICT COMMITS SUICIDE Special to The Georgian.

Unto each mox-tal, who comes to earth, A ladder is given by God, at birth. And up this, ladder the soul must go, Step by step, to the center of space, On this ladder of lives, to the Starting Place. In time departed (which yet endures) I shaped my ladder, and you shaped yours. Whatever they are—they art; what we made: A ladder of light, or a ladder of shade, A ladder of love, or a hateful thing, A ladder of strength, or a wavering string. A ladder of gold, or a ladder of straw, Each is the ladder of righteous LAW. We flung them away at the call of death, We took them again with the next life breath. For a keeper stands by the great birth gates; As each soul passes, its ladder waits. Though mine be narrow, and yours be broad, On my ladder alone can t climb to God. On yftur ladder alone can your feet ascend, For none may borrow, and none may lend. If toil and trouble and pain are found, Twisted and corded, to form each round, If rusted iron or mouldering wood Is the fragile frame, you must make it good, You must build it over and fashion-it strong, Tho’ the task be as hard as your life is long; For up this ladder the pathway leads To earthly pleasures ana spirit needs; And all that may come in another way Shall be but illusion, and will not stay. In useless effort, then, waste no time; Rebuild your ladder, and climb and climb.

Innls, New York. The nomination of Daniel T. Wilson as president of the association unanimously ratified. For Tariff Revision. The flrst resolution Introduced for tariff revision Is as follows; Whereas. The present tariff sched ule was arrangod for the purpose of reviving the Industries of the United State* flrom the prostration under which they had been suffering for sev eral years, by affording adequate pro tection to those engaged In manufac ture and production In this country ufneture and production In foreign countries; and. Whereas, The operation of the law- containing the schedule has accom plished tho purpose of which It was enacted, both In the matter of revising said Interests by the protection afford ed and In that of raising revenue; and. Whereas, The said schedule Is now nearly ten years old. and by long opera tion has become cumbersome on some Industries, inadequate for many and so excessive for others as to lack stimu lation for new and additionally com petitive enterprises under contempla tion; and. Whereas. The popular vote which warranted the Dlngley bill was cast for the enactment Into law and the maintenance of the principle of pro tection. and not for any particular schedule; amt. Whereas, The principle of protection to American Industries can be best maintained by constant-adjustment to altered trade conditions, anti will be most Injured by permitting protective schedules to remain fixed after they have by economic changes become In effective, stifling or burdensome to In dustry; Resolved, therefore, by the Carriage Builders' National Assignation In bus iness meeting assembled at Atlanta, On., on this, the 22d day of October, A. D. 1808, That It la the sense of this association that the present tariff schedule of the Dlngley bill should be revised; that It should be revised at once, end that the revision should bo made by the friends of the protective principle while they have the power to from Atlanta. t'oaervea spending n It.

Separate From Polities. The second resolution Is stiy - more significant In Its recommendations. Is as follows; Whereas, The question of a tariff upon goods Imported ’ from foreign countries Into tho United States has been a matter of public discussion be. tween the political parties In the coun try for more than one hundred yean during which practically all the knowl edge possible to be obtained upon the subject has been published and Is now recorded In American literature and accessible to all persons, and Whereas, There Is now no considers blc number of persons In this country who otlleve that absolute free trade be tween the United States and foreign countries Is either wise or practicable, or even possible, n competitive prod ucts; and, Whereas, The great difference. In opinion between the adherents of the two great political parties Into which the voters of tho United States are now and always have been divided, Is to whether tariffs on Imported competi tive products should be levied for the sole purpose of producing revenue without regard to the securing of pro tection to American industries; or lev- fed mainly with a view to protection, with revenue as Incidental In purpose; and, Whereas, The drift of American opin ion In both parties has been steadily toward protective tariff theory, until now the people are rapidly approach ing unanimity In favor of a fair pro tective tariff policy; nnd, Whereas, The tariff question Is not properly a party question, and never should bo made so In a way to fairly align voters, nor have been permitted to become a question of party dispute, as It was purely un economic question, Ilka hanking nnd should be considered coldly and judiciously and never. In the warmth of party strife, and should nt once and for all time withdraw from party discussion and party strife. Be It resolved by the Carriage Builders' National Association now In business session In the city of Atlanta, On., nnd It Is hereby Resolved, That It Is the sense of the members of this association that the tariff question Is not a party question, and that It should not be allowed to either remain one or to become one again; that the whole subject should be withdrawn from partisan discussion and should become In the main an administrative matter entirely; that, perhaps, the best way to accomplish this would be to turn the whole question of admin istrating the tariff over to one of the present departments of the govern ment; or. If It can be constitutionally done, to have a permanent board of commercial experts and commissioners appointed by the government to take charge of the entire matter; said body to be In constant session and to have the power jnatantly to change acbed- HE REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE FORMER WIFE'S DIVORCE ules to suit the exigencies «rising- from changtn* business conditions, subject always to the action of congress and the president; and be It Further Resolved, That the secretary of this association be, and that he Is hereby, directed to engross a copy of these resolutions and to certify the correctness of the said copy and to send Fame to his excellency, Theodore Roosevelt, president of the United States, to take such action as may be deemed best.
