So they have a personal feeling against me? You don't think all the colliers are the same, all over the country? (JOB ARTHUR: I think there's a good deal of feeling---) Of wanting their own back? (JOB ARTHUR: That's it.) But what can they do? I don't see what they can do. They can go out on strike--but they've done that before, and the owners, at a pinch, can stand it better than they can. As for the ruin of the industry, if they do ruin it, it falls heaviest on them. In fact, it leaves them destitute. There's nothing they can do, you know, that doesn't hit them worse than it hits us.
