THE ATLANTA GEOKuiAN. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBL DETECTIVES GUARD '0 STRIKE BREAKERS- HIRED BY SOUTHERN T/ / Railroad Gets Men to Take Places of Strikers. NOT DISTURBED BY MACHINISTS Secretary Grier, of Salis bury Union, Issues State ment on Situation. MACHINISTS ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF Salisbury. N. C„ Oct. 24.—Secretary 8. A. Orler. of the .Machinist* - Union, this- morning Issued a statement con cerning the stand taken by his brother machinists In the big strike. The Southern railway yesterday sup planted the UO regulars and the forty apprentices with about 70 men, taken fmm the cars under heavy guard. They Were under Detective Haney, of the i 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 14r. Spencer, general manager, proposition of 2 cents Increase for ma chinists and 1 cent for apprentices, which was a very material reduction of our flrst request. After finding that he would not agree to that, we assured him we would recommend favorably to our rqen at home any, proposition he would make us along the line of a sub. atantlal 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 he would have to give to all other trades a general raise ' 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 fust 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 It we would return to work Saturday, Oc tober IS, that the committee would be received early the following week and bn honorable adjustment could be reached. A vote was taken and the proposition voted down unanimously, the men claiming that as the company had bean unfair with the committee at different times for six weeks and had not offered what we considered a fair pro position, that ws 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. 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 the SOth and 21st Instant. "In the meantime the committee of tbs boilermakers nnd the committee representing the pipefitters, tinners and coppersmiths, were In conference with the officials of the road, and secured satisfactory settlement for the men they represented. The boilermakers receive practically a 2-cent flat in crease. just what we had Informed Mr. Spencer that we would have accepted ten days before th# strike was called. And the pipefitters, coppersmiths and tinners were granted Increases for all their men varying from 11-3 to 3 cents an hour. Machinists 8ald “No.” "Considering the foregoing facts, is It at all natural to auppose that the machinists would be willing 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 t||o strike of the machinists. Reports from Washington, published In several newspapej-s, were to the effect that all the union then In the shops of the Southern railway may be called out In a sympathetic strike. The local machinists and labor union off! clals knew nothing of such repdrts un til Wednesday morning, and they did not hesitate to express the op(jilon 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 Jeava their work In sympathy for us. We kre fighting our own fight. We Intend to win out by our own efforts. 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 me. 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 eight. I 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 the 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 said. "The machinists’ union Is strong enough to win Its own light. 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* firemen another. Each has a separate contract with the Southern. Do you think the International would let th* men vio late these contracts at will? "The union that most of the talk la 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 30 per cent. Now, wouldn't they be a pretty set of fools to go out on a strike? "And then, as I said before, the machinists don't need any help. They belong to a strong organisation and are amply able to take care of them selves." pany considered fair to give to others? Our" men said 'No,' and we think our stand was Justly taken. "The boilermakers nnd machinists have always been considered on 'the same basis by the Southern and have been paid the same rate of wage* Then why should 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 th* ap prentices: Instead of receiving from 81,25 to 81.75 per day, tho apprentices are paid the following prices: For th* first year, 74 cents; second year, 80 cents; third year. 81.10, and the fourth year, 81-25 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 S UICIDE Special to Tho Georgian.

Unto each mortal, 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 are 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 I climb to God. On your ladder alone can your feet ascend, For none m&y borrow, and hone 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 and 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.

Sspsrste Fj-om Politics. The second resolution Is still more significant In Its recommendations'. It Is as follows; Whereas, The, question of a tariff upon goods Imported from foreign countries Into the United States has been a matter of public glgcusslon be tween the political parties In the coun try for more than one hundred years 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 b!e number of persons In this country who otll-vo 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 the United State* are now and always have been divided, Is to whether tariffs on Imported competi tive product* should be levied for the Bole purpose of producing • revenue without regard to the securing of pro tection tn 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; and.

For Tariff Rsvislon. Th* flrst resolution Introduced for tariff revlilon is as follows: Whereas, The presont tariff sched ule was arranged for the purpose of reviving the Industries of the United States from the prostration under which they had been suffering for sev oral years, by affording adequate pro tectlon to those engaged In manufac ture and production in this country against unfair competition on the part of th* people engaged In similar man ufacture and production tn foreign countries; and. Whereas, The operation of the law containing the schedule has accom plished the purpose of which It was enacted, troth In the matter of revising said Interests by the protection nfford- cd end 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 nnd so excessive for others as to lack stimu lation for new and additionally com petitive enterprise* under contempla tion: and. Whereas. The popular vote which warranted the Dlngley bill wna cast for the enactment Into law nnd the maintenance of the principle of pro tection, nnd not for any particular schedule; and. Whereas, The principle of protection to American Industries can be best maintained by constant adjustment to altered trade conditions, and 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 Association In bus iness meeting assembled at Atlanta, Oa.. on this, tho 22d day of October. A. D. 1304, That it Is the sense of this association that the present tariff schedule of the Dlngley bill should be revised; that It should be revised at once, nnd that the revision should be made by the friends of the protective principle While they have the power to carry through the revision, .and before the subject can be carried into polltl as tt was purely an economic question, like banking nnd should be considered coldly anti Judiciously and never In the warmth of party strife, and should nt once and tor all time withdraw from party discussion and party strife. Bo It resolved by the Carriage Builders' National Association now In business session In the city, of Atlanta, Ou.. nnd It Is hereby Resolved, That It Is the sense of the members of this association that the tariff question Is not 11 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 tn accomplish this would be to turn the whole question of admin istrating the tariff over to one of the present department* 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 Instantly to change sched ules to suit the exigencies sristng from changing business conditions, subject always to the Rctlon of congress and the president; and be It Further Resolved. That the secretary of this association be, and that he la hereby, directed to engross a copy of them resolutions and to certify the correctness of the said copy and to send same to his excellency, Theodors Roosevelt, president of the United States, to take such action a* may be deemed best.
