The LARGEST CONVENTION EVER Held
The Boston Post (anti-administration) thinks
through its Washington brain, that the
attendance at the Cincinnati Convention
will be the largest that has congregated Mt a
national political convention in many years.
Why not, when the hotel accommodations are
to be held at the usual rates, strawberries will
be ripe, and rum, like the necessities of life, be
free

The strike question, which is attracting so
much attention in Europe, has latterly received
some strong illustrations of how successful the
movement on the part of the workers may be
when taken at the proper time. The everlast-
ing struggle between capital and labor is very
slow, indeed, in spreading its lessons
before us, from which safe generaliza-
tions may be made. Capital is always
oppressive, say the toilers; labor Is
Unsuitable, say the capitalists; and thus, even
while the progress of the world is being forged
by labor's mighty muscle on capitals golden
anvil, there is a continuous war between the
two producing powers. Capital is nearly
always ahead, for its side of the fight is directed
with more brains and yields its concentrated
resources at a single pen-dash where most
needed, while labor is comparatively Ignorant
badly disciplined, and with its huge forces
fighting each other in spite of themselves.
Our latest illustration from the many on
which the philosophy of strikes will be
founded comes from the uneven region of the
Nineteenth and Twenty-first wards The
fed with their share of the ''rocls," as the
ayyot of the day oddly terms money. They
had been striking the rocks like Moses, but the
water of life did not come in sufficient GUAM
tity, and so their second strike was on the pro-
letarian plan, and, like the great He
brew leaders, proved more effective
A motley and threatening procession
took its march, and rolled in
the fearful and timid into it's ranks, and by
the time it had completed its perambulaton of
the rocky ridges found capital at its feet, the
mild municipal children of the locust club on
guard and every miserable home represented
by the tatterdemalion processionists prospec-
lively richer for the season by a dollar and
half to three dollars week. It may
be mentioned that the highest wages
achieved by this blasting body in its
Casarian conquest is fifteen dollars. Strike
the iron, then, happy quarrymen, into the soul
Of the stony island in peace but let not the
iron of discomfort enter into your own Arcadian
bosoms for the present blast only the rocks.
1t is not often that labor wins so easily, and
we would advise the toilers not to fall into the
dangerous error that the policy of brute force
is likely to triumph in their cause. There is a
civil power called law which cannot permit a
breach of the peace to be committed with i'm
punity in the pursuance of ends no matter
how just in themselves AS there was no
harm done yesterday we have reason to be
thankful to the fates

can be made reduces the whole contest
to strife on the part of Mr.. Gladstone
to retain his post rs Prime Minister,
and on the part of Mr.. Fish to remain
in the Department of State. If we
amend or withdraw our case, in obedience to
the pressure of English public opinion, Mr..
Fish cannot in honor remain in the Cabinet,
with lame and hating foreign policy, one
that will do his administration no honor, and
put him in a defensive position, which, of all
things, party must avoid in canvass for the
Presidency. II, on the other hand Mr. Glad
stone admits that he consented to treaty, with
open eyes, which is displeasing to England, he
will most certainly be thrown out of the Min
istry, and Mr.. Disraeli will go into power
with broken treaty on his hands, America in
no humor to begin upon a new one, and the
Friendly alliance" which has been the subject
of so many prayers, further off than ever.
We are not prepared to say which nettle
danger contains the flower safety. We do not
feel comfortable over the rumors that our Wash
ington people mean to save the Treaty by
amending it. If this is done, it will be under
a menace, in violation of the record, and yield
ing to the suspicion of having shown bad faith
towards England. Mr.. Fish cannot remain in
the Cabinet as the minister of such con-
fession, and President Grant, if he consents to
the sacrifice, will find it the heaviest load he
can carry through the canvass.

The WEATHER YESTERDAY AND YEAa
BACK. About six o clock yesterday evening n
snow storm prevailed in this city which would
have done ample justice TO the middle of De
cenlber, and yet we are In the middle Of April.
Old winter is making a vigorous fight with
spring for supremacy, and so Tar has had the
best of the battle. This time last year we had
July weather, with April showers. Before the
middle of the month was reached the weather
was oppressively hot, and several cases OF sun
stroke resulted from it. AT the great German
Peace Jubilee, which was celebrated about this
time last year, thousands Of patriotic Father
landers marched through the streets singing
ode wacht am Rhein," with the thermome-
ter at %. Yesterday the temperature averaged
about 40. There is q wide difference between
these figures. Ii winter forces the fight with
spring we possibly may have skating before
The week is out, and furs and oyercoats be
again brought into requistion. The tradi-
tional April showers, it would seem. have oiyen

HE SUPREME Court AND THE MoRMoNs.
The report Of the decision rendered yesterday by
the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme
to-day After reviewing the special case of
Lnglebrecht and Clinton, he maintains that,
although the officers Of the Utah Judiciary are
appointed by the President, there is neither
Circuit nor District Court, in the sense intended
by the article in the constitution, giving the
Chief Magistrate the power Of making appoint
ments III The Territories, and consequently
there are no United States Courts" The
