Paterson, N. J. AND THE I. W. W. 
No prospect of compromise or con- 
ciliation is offered in the strike at Pa- 
terson, N. J., and the latest declara- 
tion of Patrick Quinlan, the convicted 
I. W. W. leader of the strikers there 
shows that the strikers do not intend 
to diminish their efforts to win the 
issue by fair means or foul. Quinlan 
seems to be biting off more than he 
can chew, however, when he declares 
that “we are going to win this strike 
or wipe Paterson off the map.” Simi- 
lar declarations were made in Law- 
rence over a year ago, but the mill 
town still has a geographical location 
on the map and is doing business. 
The time is apt to come shortly 
when a little militancy will be shown 
by those opposed to the methods of 
the I. W. W. people. When that 
time comes such agitators as Quinlan 
and his confrere, Haywood, will be 
wiped off the map in a storm of ex- 
citement in just such a manner as they 
are continually doing in various parts 
of the country. 
Under the present “management,” 
the I. W. W. need not alarm the 
country at large. ‘To be successful 
in its attempts it needs cooler heads 
than Miss Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, 
Haywood and Quinlan. The com- 
paigns of labor organizations such as 
the I. W. W. have never been felt 
to any great extent throughout the 
entire country and will never be very 
serious under the present leadership. 
Any plan to wipe Paterson, N. J. 
“off the map” would meet with such 
a storm of protest from the well- 
wishers of the city that the agitators 
would be swept from their feet in 
the passions of the cooler-headed citi- 
zens. ‘There is a deplorable bitterness 
of spirit in the Paterson strike that 
promises a long, drawn out battle, but 
if Mr. Quinlan and his brother work- 
ers do not watch out they will be 
among the missing instead of Pater- 
son. 
Cuicaco’s SMOKE NUISANCE 
It looks as though Chicago was to 
be freed of the smoke nuisance. Such 
might be inferred by a communica- 
tion received by the Chicago commit- 
tee on the smoke matter from several 
of the railroads entering that city. 
The message, which hints at electri- 
fication of the roads, is as follows: 
“We recognize the desirability of 
eliminating or reducing to a minimum 
the creation of smoke in the city, and 
particularly in the residence districts 
and congested centers of population. 
We have for some time been seeking 
a solution of the problems entering 
into this question.” 
The communication was signed by 
these roads: Chicago, Burlington & 
Quincy, Chicago and Northwestern, 
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul, 
Pennsylvania lines, Illinois Central, 
New York Central, Atchison, Topeka 
and Sante Fe, Chicago, Rock Island 
and Pacific. 
It is requested that present action 
be deferred with a view to formulat- 
ing a plan which will give a full and 
satisfactory solution and Chicago is 
to be congratulated on the prospect 
of this outcome. 
ANTI-SUFFRAGE ARGUMENTS 
Persons who admire sincerity and 
high ideals cannot help but admiring 
the tactics of the American suffra- 
gists. Although some of the “Antis” 
claim that the outburst in England 
may be directly traced to the Ameri- 
can campaign for equal suffrage it is 
hard *~ see how this is the case. The 
American women have, without an 
exception, conducted themselves with 
perfect propriety and with a due re- 
gard for the rights and priviliges of 
others. 
Another charge that the American 
women have to answer to is that they 
are appealing to the men simply be- 
cause of their sex and are using every 
artifice known to women to win the 
males over to their way of thinking. 
This, probably true, is hardly a ser- 
ious charge, as it is better than using 
the torch or a bomb to attempt to 
win co-operation with the men. 
If the ladies, wishing to be uniform 
with the laws of feminine beauty, at- 
tire themselves in bewitching gowns 
and invoke the aid of the hair spec- 
ialist and the milliner, mere man can- 
not object. What a clamor would go 
up if a frowsy, ill-tailored phalanx of 
women were to be the symbol of wo- 
man suffrage. All should be proud of 
the American suffragists for their re- 
spect for law and order and the un- 
tiring patience they have shown in 
their fight for the vote. 
Tue New Haven ComMirrer 
It was inevitable in the light of the 
situation in which the New York, 
New Haven and Hartford railroad 
finds itself that formal action should 
be taken in behalf of the stockholders 
so that they may be in a position to 
act intelligently and helpfully regard- 
ing the great property in which they 
have invested, and whose future has 
become acutely involved in current 
proceedings of investigation and ex- 
pected prosecution on the part of the 
federal government. 
For some time plans have been in 
progress looking to the formation of 
a committee on the par of the stock- 
holders to whom all might look for 
the conservation of the common 
interest. The committee is a strong 
one headed by George Von L.. Meyer, 
former secretary of the navy. Rich- 
ard Olney is to be the chief legal ad- 
viser of the committee and therefore 
of the stockholders. 
In order that this committee may 
represent power to make the recom- 
mendations effective they will have to 
represent a majority of the stock- 
holders. The committee is designed 
for the upbuilding of the property 
and will probably be welcomed by the 
New Haven directors.
