A TRAITORS WORK.

The sun of victory has one spot on 1t to the
Republicans of the West-the loss Of Nevada.
Thu APPEAL has borne its share of abuse for
months past because it warned the party
AGAINST the danger attending its endorsement
Of William Sharon. When the fight was
spened in these columns against him we be-
lieved that if allowed to saddle himself upon
the party he would defeat it. We tried to
convince Republicans of this fact, and were
thoroughly in earnest. Sharon was then be-
lieved to be q political impostor who was
striving TO force his unwecomed presence
upon the State Now he is everywhere de-
nounced as a traitor in camp, who came
among us to rule or ruin. He Is openly
charged with collision with Fair and the
Democrats. His acts have in every way tend
ed to confirm that suspicion, and he STANDS
condemned until he can prove that q corrop
ZIONIST can be incorruptible. Experience Is
n lamp which shines for all, and the party Ii
not SO badly beaten bu. that it can pluck
useful lesson from a needless defeat. foiu
cal meddlers and party traitors must be
drummed from the camp altogether, and the
leaders two years hence must be selected from
q different sort of timber. The only csnsoia
lation in defeat is the reflection that TIT
shame of being defeated by Sharonis notso bal
rs would have been the disgrace of electln!

Clinton, Mass, March S.-The situation at
Clinton remains unchanged. The Lancaster
mills did not start up to-day, as numerous
ofthe strikers had predicted. A number OF
male wesvers applied at former wages. One
ofthe leaders of the strike says that if tue
concern doRs not resume work the present
week, the operatives will leave town. he
says further that the corporation can not til
their mills with hands. One mill in Man
chester, New Hampshire, now wants 600
hands. All but fifteen of the four hundred
woavers have been paid for their February
work. Relative to the corporations dividends,
the agent says dividends for first ten years Of
the mills operation did not average per
cent. annually.

The Mining Troubles i'm Kansas.

Topeka, Kas., March 8.-For several weeks
the miners at Usage City, Scranton, Peterton
and other towns in Usage county have been
on strike for an advance of wages. The
owners of the mines have refused to yield,
and the effect of the strike is already being
felt in Topeka and other places dependent
upon these mines for fuel The executive
board of the strikers have just issued the fol-
lowing address to the miners throughout the
county:
w-workmen-Your executive board
deem it their dety to address you on the
situation of the strike. We are proud of the
stand you have taken and the vantage round
you now hold, and with you we are hopeful
of browning triumph. The over-anIiety
manifested on the part of the companies by
their personal calls on some of the miners,
their mean intrigues by the use of money,
and their threats and VOL ent intimidation
demonstrate to every one conc erned that
they are being badly hurt and are already
whipped if they had the honor to yield to
the demands of right or justice. Again we
counsel you to beware of the hirelings who
are endesvcring to incite you to violence, so
that confusion and DISCRIMINATION may be
the result. The threatening letter sent 10
the President of your executive board COM
manding him to leave in twenty days or his
life and property would be destroyed, shows
that Molly Maguirism is now on the other
side. Keep it there BY your obedience to
law and order, and triumph will ultimately
perch upon your banner.

Horbor DISTRACTIONS ut New York.

A heavy bar has been formed in the APP
proaches to New York harbor, partly by the
late storms and partly by dumping refuse.
One steamship has already gre unded on this
new bar, and was with difficulty COTTON off
Since then a Red Hook fisherman has COM
planned 10 the pilot commissioners that his
business was being ruined by the dumping
of the city garbage into the bay for that
where he formerly caught fish he now
hauls up tin kettles and preserve
cans. Complaint was also made
that two of the Morris & Cummings
steamers broke their screws in consequence
Of what was being dumped in the channel
between Bellows Island and the jersey
fats. II is strangely paradoxical state
Of things. While the government is ex-
pending millions Of dollars in clearing OBJ
structions in the approach TO New YORK
by sea, the city is filling up the channels
to the hsrbor by dumping its refuse in
them.
