COMMUNISM.

The Communistic violence that burst
upon the country few days ago, and
which is not yet entirely under control,
is but the harvest that has naturally
followed the seed sowing we have wit
messed. Prohigate indulgence, cXtrava-
giant living, the protuseness that plenty
begat and the reckless harangues Of
incendiary leaders have brought these
United States almost to the verge of
Red Republican disruption. The ques-
ton now at issue is not a question of
the reduction of ten per cent of wages
1t is not simply a question between
strikers and employers. The issue
is between the most dangerous ism that
has ever reared its head, and the majesty
Of law, the prevalence of order the very
existence of civilized society. Those
who overlook this fact fail to see the
gravest feature in the situation. The
turbulence of the rioters, the despera-
ton that descended to plumber and arson
and high-handed murder did not d.
RECTLY proceed from the striking"
employees or their personal friends 1t
was the result of the TRANSMISSION into
the great body of American society of
the terrible doctrines of the French
Commune. Crazy demagogues preach
ing the equal distribution of property,
scheming politicians shrieking their de-
nunciations of those whom they were
pleased to call bloated bondholders,
and, in order to catch votes, teaching
labor that capital was necessarily at
war with it, have had more to do with
infusing into the breasts of working
men utter defiance of all law than all
other causes combined.
The responsibility should be placed
where it properly belongs. The poor,
deluded men, who have been the in
struments of trades unions and labor
combinations, who have been used bv
the cooler heads of unprincipled schem-
ers as means to accomplish their pur-
poses must, of course, be summarilv
punished. Mob law must be sup
pressed. Good order must he re-estab-
Iished, and that too upon secure and
permanent basis. 1t must be positively
shown that America is not yet willing
to be Mexicanized or prepared to follow
the rabble of Paris. These latter OBJ
jects are of paramount importance and
should, primarily, engage the attention
of all law-abiding citizens. But there
must also be day of reckoning for the
leaders. The recent outburst was not
spontaneous movement. 1t did not
follow, without pre-arrangement, the
reduction of wages by one of the great
railroad corporations All the sur
rounding circumstances show that it
had been skilfully planned by calmer
and wiser heads than brakemen and
fircmcn are supposed to possess. The
orders were issued and the movement
directed by the leaders of the labor
organizations throughout the land
These must be taught that, whatever
the grievances Of laboring men may be,
lawlessness can not, will not be en-
dured
The results of these disastrous strikes
will be speedily shown in the continued
and further depression of all business
interests. Capital will not invest where
confidence does not exist and where it
would be subject to the caprice of every
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1877-07-28

both capital and labor may learn from the
conflict which at present is raging with
such unfavorable symptoms in our country
While the steady tread of the soldiery and
the rafting of musketry fall in doleful
accents upon the hearing of the calm and
considerate observer, or he beholds the
funeral corteges of the INNOCENT moving
along in solemn motion and sees the angry
flames shooting heavenward and spreading
on all sides amid the deafening cheers of
an unruly mob, destroying millions of pro-
perry and filling with terror the souls of
the weak, he views with his minds eye the
various aspects of the case,
Ali true citizens, faithful to their obliga-
lions as members of civilized society, must
condemn without hesitation the resistance

Mr.. DIoGENEs.-This singular man lived
in Greece. He was distinguished for his
eccentricities, bad manners, and bad dis
position. 1t was his chief business to find
fault. For example, he took a lantern one
day when the sun was shining brightly and
went ont to search for an honest man,
thereby insinuating that such persons were
exceedingly scarce. When Alexander,
distinguished military gentleman, paid him
visit and inquired what he could do for
him, he had the impudence to tell him to
"get out of his sunshine" To cap the
climax Of his oddities, he dressed like a
beggar and lived in tub! He was sour,
grabbed, crusty old bachelor. We infer
that he had no wife; first, because no woman
would take kindly to one of his habits,
dress, or manners, Or aspire to become mis-
sress of his mansion. "There was an old
woman who lived in a shoe" it is true, but
the woman who would live in tub, and
especially with such a companion has not
been heard from. The misanthropic spirit
which possessed this man was doubtless
due to disordered digestion and bilious
ness, one of the prominent symptoms of
which is a moroSe, fault finding DISPOSE
ton. The tongue is heavily coated, Civ
ing rise to bad taste, the appetite is not
good and the patient feels dull, sleepy, or
dizzy, and is apt to be fretful. Unfortu-
nately, Mr.. Diogenes lived several centuries
before DR.. PIERCE's Pleasant Purgative
Pellets were invented, few doses of which
would have relieved him of his "bile, and
enabled him to find scores of "hOnest men "
without the aid of his lantern. Under their
magic influence, combined with that of the
Golden Medical Discovery, to cleanse his
blood, he might have been led to take a

THE OHIO DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION

While the country was convulsed by
the strike riots this week, and nobody
seemed to care to read or talk of any
thing else, body of solemn, long-faced
politicians met in convention in Column
bus, Ohio. Nobody seems to care what
they did or how long it took them to
do it; nevertheless they went through
the motions of nominating conven-
ton with as much complacency as
though somebody was interested in
their movements. Their proceedings
are of interest simply by way of bur
lesque to relieve the minds of the pco-
pie wrought to an intense pitch of ex-
element by the reign of terrorism
throughout the country. They nomi-
mated for Governor a fat groceryman of
Cincinnati with long purse and
willingness to disburse the needful, re-
markablc for nothing, save that he was

PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL, as contrasted
with the speedy collapse of nostrums de-
void Of efficacy VIII ich have from time to
time been pulled into brief notoriety dur
ing the twenty odd years that this cele-
brated medicine has been sold, affords
proof that the American public continues
to repose its confidence in deserving arti-

has long been recognized as the leading
specific for Consumption, Bronchitis, Dip

other diseases of the breathing organs. 1t
is, moreover, certain, speedy, and safe
botanic remedy for Dyspepsia, Liver Dis

accommodating evidence of an unimpeacha-

is remarkably prompt and thorough. The

its reliability in every particular. Sold by
