The Great Strike,

The great railroad strike in Maryland and
Pennsylvania, strike which promises to ex-
tend to other sections Of the country, shows
a larger spirit of lawlessness than was be-
lieyed to exist in this land. 1t is altogether
probable that had the lsw-breakers been
taken in hand at once the outrages of Satur-
day and Sunday would not have occurred.
But the authorities did not apprehend the
danger, or apprehending it, were too weak or
pusillanimous to take the necessary measures
for protection. Encouraged by the timidity
of the officers Of the law the rioters disbur-
dened themselves of all restraints and acted
their will. They terrorized. great cities,
brought the transportation of the country to
a standstill, destroyed much property, and
took many lives.
Public opinion of course heartily and
unreservedly sustains the law-enforcers
against the law-breakers, and it will speedily
make itself felt through armed force, its
agency of last resort, As to the merits of
the original quarrel opinions may differ. The
railroad corporations may have been unjust
in making reduction of wages, though in
view of the depression of business and the
general shrinkage of values it is difficult to see
what else they could do. Apparently they
were paying higher wages than their receipts
would justify. The employees however looked
at the matter differently, and struck work.
This they had a clear right to do. If they
did not choose to accept the new rates they
bo 1f bo
But when they insisted with arms in their
hands that other men should not work for
the reduced wages, when they drove from
employment all who were willing to accept
the smaller pay, when they threatened with
death those who attempted to run trains,
when they brought transportation TO stand
still, and when, from spirit of revenge, they
destroyed the property of their old employers,
they at cnce deprived themselves of popular
sympathy and put themselves out of the
protection of the law. As outlaws they must
now be treated, and it is a mistaken kindness
to longer deal gently with them.
1t does appear that in Pittsburg and other
cities the leading rioters, the men who are
foremost in arson and plumber are not rail-
way employees The criminal classes have
taken advantage of the disorder and absence
of law to murder, burn and steal. Neverthe-
less the strikers are justly held responsible for
all the violence. They afforded the oppor-
tunity, and broke down the safeguards
which society has established for its pro-
lection. They may have stolen nothing
themselves, but they have opened the safe
and permitted the thieves who stood behind
them to go in and plunder. For this they
will be held to strict account when the day
of reckoning comes. When the account is
summed up trades-unionism will be judged
responsible for all this violence, and society
for its own safety will be likely to demand
the extinction of organizations so lawless in
their spirit and methods. In the end the
great railroad strike will prove to be the
severest blow that labor unions have ever
rooaiyad

THE Shoe and Leather Reporter is jubi-
liant over the crop prospects and says "The
entire Western country is now ripe with the
harvest and it is safe to say that the expect
ations of the most sangulne as TO the crops
of this year are more than realized. The
bountiful yield of the fall of 1877 would
seem almost enough to compensate the farm
er for the discouragements of the past three
to five years through the West and North
west, when floods or grasshoppers have
brought dsmay to their hearths by the utter
or partial destruction of all cereals through
large sections of the country" "While this
state of things makes the farmer jubilant, it
gladdcns the heart of the merchant. Large
crops mean payment of back dues; they
mean fresh and large supplies of clothing
and boots and shoes. All sorts of patching
expedents had to be resorted to, but now
that they will have money coming from the
crops to pay for what they want and must
have, we Judge there will be from three to
five million pairs more boots and shoes sold
in the Western States this fall than were
marketed there for. the corresponding period
of last year,

THE scenes of violence in Pittsburg and
elsewhere go to show that the suppression of
mobs is more difficult task than formerly.
The troops apparently have had all they
wanted to do to hold their own. The reason
of this in all probability is the presence
among the mob of so many old soldiers. 1t
would be difficult to gather hundred men
together in any section in this country with
out finding in the assemblage considerable
percentage of veteran of the civil war-old
soldiers who know how to handle fire arms of
every descripti on, who know the value of Or
ganization, and understand the advantages of
strong position. When those men get pos
session of a cannon they know where to
plant it and how to do deadly execution
with it. We are veritably a nation of SOL
diers.

TERMS $500 PER ANNUM, IN ADVANCE.

IT will surprise great many people, as the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat remarks, to learn
that the Southern States have not their fair
proportion of post routes and other postal
facilities, includlng,we presume, Postmasters.
but it is hard to see how the proportion can
be increased without making serious drain
on the treasury. Even with their present
limited facilities, the Southern States, spare
ly inhabited by an illiterate population, do
not pay the expenses of their postal service,
and any further extension OF the system
must be at the expense of the more thrifty
and solvent Northern States. No doubt this
is all right. but it would be pleasant to listen
to the remarks that would go up from all the
rest of the country if New England, for in
stance, should ask for subsidy. II it is
necessary for political or other reasons to give
the South lift at the expense of the rest of
the country, it hardly seems judicious to ad-
vertise such purpose by calling a Conven-
ton to accomplish it.

CHARTREUsE, the well-known liqueur
made by the monks of the French Carthuslan
Monastery near Grenoble, is still manufac-
tured according to the original recipe of
three hundred years ago. The recipe is kept
carefully sealed up under stone of the high
altar, and is only removed from its hiding
place when fresh superior is elected. The
sale of Chartreuse brings in enormous profits,
which are used to defray the expenses of the
visitors entertained at the convent and for
gifts to the poor, while a tithe is sent to the
