The people of „the north and east always vote business, and that business is never in full accord with the best interests of the south and west. The corporations, exporters and manufacturers have grown rich through the fostering care of the high tariff and protective tariff has sucked the life blood of southern production and hindered the growth of vital interests in the west, Under the present administration the republican administration is sO great iu the House of Representa tives that it is practically impos sible for any measure primarily favored by by the democrats to be enacted into law. There has been several instances however, when 15 or 16 republican Senators of the middle west joined with the democrats of the south to defeat a. measure that had been passed by the republicans of the Honse. A notable instance was the mea* sure to. “scrap” the nitrate plant at Mussel Shoals, Ala. Daring the Wilson administra tion this pjiant was purchased by the government hUd the construe 1 ' tion of a great water power, plant was commenced* The purpose for which the plant should be used was the manufacture of nitrate.

Since the material rise in the price of cotton, the business hope of the people is also rising. —■ ■" — Good comes to the country whenever Congress places business before party polities in their votes. Verily, the U. S. Senator who does the'most talking in the Sen ate, has no legislation to ois credit. It was not. legislation, or finantcial help that caused the increase in the price of potion. It was. the short crop. It would be well for the farmers of the cotton belt to starve the boll wevils by falling to plant any ootton next year. _ 1 " - . . .

When this bill reached the Sen- .and coal miners defied state authoi ate, a sufficient number of middle Ay and engaged in mortal’'combat wost republican Senators joined with soveral thousand state troops the southern ‘and deputy sheriffs. In the corn- tl.e me as lire, bats that continued for ten days or more, about a dozen miners and matorg to defeat half as many deputies were killed. There were no indications that the miners would be compelled or ■persuaded to disarm or disband. j Then two regiments of the Unit ed States army under the command of a Brigadier General, were order ed to the scene of the insurrection and martial law was proclaimed for the five counties embraced in the disturbed territory. The federal soldiers reached the scene of the miners war. The min- j ers wi hout firing a shot began to disperse, at least 400 of them sur rendering their arms and them selves. I Last Monday morning peace prevailed. Several months ago the several, thousand miners working in the rcoal mines in five counties in West Virginia, refused to accept a reduc tion' of pay and went out on a ^strike. The strike was by authori ty of the miners union of which they were members. The miners not only quit work, but prevented ►others from taking their places. ■ ‘Then came the threats to destroy the miners, and by state authority, state troops and deputy sheriffs were sent to guard the mines. The { miners then armed themselves and ! Tbe ie republicans recognized that the bill in question was aimed directly at the agrictfltUralinterests of the south and middle .west: The promoters of the anti-nitrate bill was in direct favor of the manu facturers of the east, s V Thus the middle west Senators placed justice and business ahead of party polities. This can be done at any time when as a matter of business the south and middle west join forces. Years ago iron workers were advised to “strike while the iron was hot.” In the case of the West Virginia coal miners, their striking made the iron too hot lor their well-being or comfort. -—- »— - A man, or a number of men, have an inalienable right to quit work when conditions displace them. BRt they have no partiele of right to preveut any other per son from working. ;—:—-O’—— Cotton is not the only fleece that affordsprofit\to producers aud manufacturers.

The fighting miners have been guilty of insurrection, and this government stops short of duty performed, if armed defiance of Washington next November; fstate and federal authority is per- taking full credit for a m tmitted to be exercised with im- that he ° was * spunity.
