MODEST DEMANDS The Philadelphia
Times makes the following points 1.-The
st. Louis 'workingmen" may not be more
illogical than other strikers, but they have
a way of putting their demands that ex-
presses with startling plainness the excess
os to which such movements as the present
lead. They give notice to the Mayor of St.
Louis that they must have food, and that
if he would avoid plunder arson and vio-
lonce he must cooperate" with them In
getting it. They think it well to say at once,
however, Gin order 10 save a useless waste
of time" that "all offers of work during
the national strike cannot be considered by
us remedy under the present circumstan-
ces, for we are fully determined TO hold out
until the principles we are contending for
are carr ied"-these "principles" being
nothing less than that convention OF
merchants be summoned to furnish food to
these men who will not work. II this be
done, they agree to maintain the majesty
of the law" but if they cannot get food
without working for it, they distinctly
threaten to plunder and destroy. The May.
or, we are pleased to add, did not waste
any time in parleying with these tramps
He simply sent his police and dispersed
them and lodged fifty or hundred of them
in Jail, where they may realize their "prin
ciple of being fed at the public expense
though it is to be hoped that the laws o
Missouri provide for their doing littl,
work, even during "national strike"

The New York Tribune learnedly re-
marks: "Ex -Governor Moses has been
arrested in South Carolina on the charge
of having issued fraudulent pay certiti- :
Gates when speaker of the House in 1872.
The charge is probably true and the ar
rest is unquestionably in the interest Of
good government and decent morals. 1t
was for the refusal to commission this
scoundrel as judge tn at Governor Cham-
berlain lost the goodwill of the Supreme
Court of South Carolna-the chief justice
being the scoundrers father" The ques-
ton now is, Why did Chamberlain,
when attorney general, allow rascals just
as savory as Moses to take S75O,OOO out
of the treasury to buy ten-dollar

ASTRIKE FORLOWER WAGES.
From the Baltimore Gazette.

From the Baltimore Gazette.
The strikers and their sympathizers will
now have an opportunity OF observing the
operation of an inflexible law of political
economy. Their movement to put up wa
ges has resulted in q loss of wealth, and the
effect of that is to lower wages. This ope-
ration is just as inexorable as the tendency
OF water to roll down hill. 1t may be ari-
ficially resisted for while, hut IL is inevi-

roads nave been thrown Outof employme I

loss of hall a million of dollars. A large
amount of perishable property has been
lost by delays in shipment. Several de-
partments of business have been discour-
aged, and will be hereafter on a smaller
scale. In many ways the strike has iuJur-

WASHINGTON. July 27.

WASHINGTON, July 81.
The Central Committee of the Labor
League of the United States, an organs
zation having its headquarters in this
city, to-day transmitted a petition to the
President of the United States, urging
that steps be taken Immediately to end
the existing labor troubles and restore
traffic, law and order. They oppose any
compromise with actual rioters or those
countenanciDg riot, and declare that the
impending famine in the large cities, the
imminent suffering of the great and law
abiding labor element, loss and ruin to
the agricultural population with the un>
developed events which may result from
the present troubles, Justify the Execu
tive, on behalf of the whole people, in
calling the prominent railroad men who,
in blind and passionate stubbornness, re-
fuse to listen to either reason or the loud
appeals of the people, to Washington,
together with the leaders of the labor or
ganizations who have opposed violence,
that the difficulties may be compromised
The petition also sets forth that any fur
ther blind resistance of railroads, to the
detriment of the business of the nation
| would justify the government in taking
possession of the roads and running them

THE outrageous programme of the strik-
ers is now being revealed. 1t seems to be
a fortunate and Providential circumstance
that this program me was not permitted to
be carried out
The strike had been secretly ARRANGED to
commence on the 10th of August, and was
to be a general one all over the country.
The strike comm enced in Baltimore before
the time, and thus the programme was
providentially interrupted. The whole af-
fair looks as though 1t had been arranged
under the direction of some leader of the
Paris Commune. the heartlessness of the
thing is horrible to contemplate, and from
the interviews of "Chief Arthur" and the
letters he has published. we imagine it
was no doubt concocted under the auspices
OF the brotherhood" of which he is the paid
representative.
What would have been the result had
Providence permitted the wicked scheme
TO have been carried out as planned no one
can predict. 1t was horrible enough as II
was. If the vengeance of the arrangement
fell on the railroads alone it would have
been terrible to hundreds of thousands OF
interested parties but this could not be
The horrors 1t would have brought about
would have rested on the millions OF pool
who had no agency whatever in arranging
the price paid to engineers or firemen, anC
would therefore have been innocent suffer
ers.
The railroads might easily recover thei
losses by raising rates or discharging force
who were not necessary, but there is nj
way by which the poor could recover or b
compensated for the injury done tnem.-
This pre-arranged strike was the most sci
fish and abominable in any view that 1t cal
be contemplated. The leaders in 1t ough
