She patronizes him, but he becomes familiar and she rebukes him. He then declares himself the equal of any man and he will prove it to her. He gets employment in a ship yard and soon is made a foreman. His strong personality causes him to be the leader of the men and Laura Phalen, a stenographer, coaches him in the rudiments of education. David Radnor, Julia's father, and his clique of capitalists desire to get control of the shipyard, and bribe Doran to order a strike. The battle is fierce and bloody, until Laura takes John to some of the strikers' starving homes. He then finds that he has a conscience and despite the offer of more bribery money and the hand of the capitalist's daughter, he calls the strike off and finds love and contentment with the little stenographer.
