The Right to Strike.

The ironmoiders of the Johnston Har-
Yester Company, at Brockport, n. V,
struck for an increase of twenty-five
per cent. upon their wages. The
company asked for an Injunction
to restrain the strikers from inf1u-
encing new men coming to the town
against entering the employ of the
company, either by moral suasion or by
threats, stating that five hundred men
were thus kept from employment. At the
special term of the court at Rochester,
Judge Macomber denied the continuance
of the injunction, upon the broad ground
that the law of supply and demand
should govern the parties to the issue,
and that, unless there were overt acts
shown, as free agents the men had the
right to act as they did. The opinion
has been sustained at the general term
Of the court at Rochester in the follow
ing words. The court says:
TheaUts, not cont.overtei, to restrain which an
Injunction was asked for, did not constitute an
evasion Of any clear right Of property vested in
the plaintiff 1t Gid not appear that such acts,
whether done or threatened 10 be done, resulted,
or would have resulted, in irTeparable injury to
plaintiff, and the discretion of The special term in
refusing TO continue tie injunction was properly
exercised.
The case will be taken to the Court of
Appeals for further hearing, but doubt
hess the judgment of the lower courts
viii be affirmed. The principle involved
is very important one to mechanics and
employers.

To the Editor of The Republican:


My name having been associated with
the late so-called Virginia delegation who, it
would seem, waited on the President for the
avowed purpose, not only of denouncing Senator
Mahone but also to ask the removal ofcertain Off
GERS of the Government located in Petersburg, in
ORDER patriotically, to have themselves installed
therein, 1 feel it duty owe to myself to say
that was not only not present at said meeting,
though invited to be one of the number, but
have since, and do now, stigmatise the whole pro-
ceeding rs fraud. / denounce the whole matter.
an take this occasion TO say that L am Read
juster Republican, a warm friend of Senator Ma
hone-whose proud and chivalrous bearing in the
Senate of the United States entities him to the
warm, hearty commendation of every honest Vir-
ginian-and that this attempt by few obscure
soreheads to control the patronage of Virginia is
alike an insult to the Republicans and Readjust-
erS, and should be met with an honest protest by
every friend of humanity. To make war upon
Senator Malone, who is driving back the imperial
cohorts of a degenerate slave aristOcracy and
erecting upon the ruins of an old dilapidated
regime political pantheon as lasting as time,
as broad as humanity. under which the humble
and the poor may take shelter, would be nothing
less than political suicide. 2. 7. FINlGAN.

Lincoln for President.

=" We're 1 compelled to select from this
administration the man most likely to succeed
Garfield would take the youngest OF them all
mean Secretary Lincoln" This was said by one
old in the service and independent in his position
among leading Republicans. "The name is pre-
liminary battle won, and the man, SO far as can
hear, suits the name. He promises at his age
great deal more than his father did. He is ambi-
tious only to do his work well. consider he has
the best introduction to the country of any man
of his time-perhaps of any time-and, though it
may sound strange in your ears, tell you there
are to-day more Presidential possibilities in the
modest, hard working, and thoroughly intelligent
Secretary of War than in any other man in the
Nation This sounds strangely only because it is
new. But it will bear thinking of. Lincolns Sc
lection by Garfield was purely sentimental idea

Beck is peculiar fellow. In his home,

entertaining and an agreeable companion, but
when you get him on the floor of the Senate in a

he is. In this respect he reminds you yiyidly OF
Randall. In this debate he talks and acts as If he

Mahones existence. Nothing is too hard for MN

POLITICAL POINTS.

The three daily newspapers of Mis-
sissippi are anti Bourbon Bourbonism must go.
Signs multiply that the debate in the
Senate is continuing too long for the good of the
Democratic party.
Michigan starts off the political sea-
son with Republican plurality of about 5000.
This will do for an off year.
1t is not a few petty offices Republi-
can Senators want, but the dissolution of the
Solid South They will stand by Mahone.-Chtca9o
Tribune.
Alexander H. Stephens said of the
attempt of Memphis to repudiate its debt that
every man was unanimous against Reputation,
but solid against paying dollar.
1t was against such methods as tissue
ballots and false counts that Malone fought and is
fighting to- day; and every principle of justice and
equity demand that he be sustained, not only by
the Republican party but by every good citizen
C2ereland Leader.
We would prefer to see the President
remain calm about the confirmation of his nom1-
nations. The Senate is aware of the demand that
the public business shall be attended to. special
message from the President would not convey to
the Senate anything in the nature of news.-CtncH-
natl Commercial.
The Bourbon party organization as
serts itself, and is everywhere recognized as the
survivor of that maleYolent doetrinarianiSm-
The survival appears mainly at the South. The
people of that section, section, are politically
solidifed in it and by it. Therefore it is that
thinking men of the North cannot be persuaded
that they ought to vote on the side of the Solid
South.-C2 Chicago Times.
The cause of this devilish treatment
Ex-senator Malone is not difficult to find. 1t is be-
cause he has dared to break with BourboniSm.
They are determined to maintain the Solid South
and its corner stone of State sovereignty and that
no Southern man shall appear in Congress as a
Republican without losing his social status and
being branded and maltreated in such manner
that life in the South would be intolerable and his
influence would be lost.-Chicdgo Tribune.
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1881-04-22

After all the twenty years of war, John
sonism, radical reconstruction, concilia-
ton, and Solid South restoration, we find
ourselves now where we were at the be-
ginning, minus chattel slavery. All Fed
eral armed intervention in Southern
affairs ceased four years ago, and was
then but feeble and trivial force. The
enfranchised negro, left to himself,
seemed free to choose who of his old mas
tiers could best be trusted by him.
The Republican party went out of ex-
istence in the South. Take Virginia as
an example. In 1877 the Republicans of
that State made no ticket for the State
election, and the present Governor was
elected without opposition. In 1878 the
National Republican Congressional Com
mittee could not draw out from their
hiding-places the congressional district
committees in some of the districts of
that State; civil-service order No. 1 had
rendered meetings of those committees
unsafe for most of the members, and
political tyranny had rendered them
unnecessary. Republicanism was dead.
In 1879 sixty odd thousand whites
who had previously acted with the De-
mocracy reyolted from the organization
on the question of the State debt and told
the negroes they need not be afraid to
come to the polls and vote with them.
Thus encouraged, the latter joined the
dissenting Democrats and carried the
State by an overwhelming majority. Ma
hone and his followers were anathema-
tized as Douglas had been in 1850. He
was relentlessly pursued all through the
campaign as a renegade and traitor. He
was Lees favorite Virginia general DUR
ing the war, and was supposed to have
earned immunity from bomb-proof as
sailants. Not so! In 1880 the Readjusters.
having been ostracized and prosecuted by
the Regulars, put up an electoral ticket of
their own, with Hancock at the head. The
regular Democracy declared that no man
who voted it could ever again expect to
be considered a Democrat. The Read
justers had refused to have anything to
do with the National Convention of the
Democratic party. They were fighting
on their own hook. William Ell. Bar
mum, chairman of the National Demo-
cratic Committee, expelled Malone and
his followers from the party by order of
his committee. The Republican Read
justers, as was expected, voted for a Re-
publican electoral ticket. Thou

voted for the regular Hancock electoral
ticket, while many voted the Republican
ticket rather than aid in Bourbon tri-
umph. Despite this concentrated fire,
Malone held about thirty-two thousand
men. When the Democrats seemed sure
of the Senate without Mahone's aid he
was ostracized and prosecuted by them
as if he had been an outlaw. When
events proved that he could alone give
them the Senate they begged him to do
it. When he refused, the old spirit re-
yiyed. The aciU of the minority was as
serted as at Charleston in the National
Convention of 1860.
Malone and his followers do not be-
come Republicans. They refuse to act
with their enemies. They say all legal
voters shall vote. The Republicans of
Virginia (mainly colored men) say, with
substantial unanimity, they will stand by
them. Malone says the administration
side ought not to be obstructed in the Or
ganization of the Senate. Then say the
minority, ave will rebel Malone is our
property. No ex-confederate shall ever
abandon the Lest Cause. He shall rote our
1uoy or there shall be no election!" Repub-
licans stand amazed. They say to the
Democratic Senators, eve thought We
had offended you by acting with Republi-
can party at the South, officered by North
ern men. We did no wrong in that. But
now Virginians differ on State question,
and we trust the side which to us seems
safest for the political rights of men and
the free education of their children. We
Will forget the war and fraternize with
ex-confederates who have deserved our
confidence by their fidelity to the laws of
the Nation" This is kind, and ought to
break down sectional lines. But the
Democracy says, "No! There shall be no
peace. Not even through non-partisan
action shall sectionalism be allayed. 1t
is the breath Of our life." And now, high
above all other voices, comes the old
clamor for Caucasian rule" accom-
panied with imprecations on the heads of
all who say the Fifteenth Amendment is
ever violated in Virginia.
We have presented the situation well
knowing that much of it is trite and IA
miliar. But we do it more to refresh the
memory of Democratic than of Republican
readers, and with the hope that some
may pause and see if no way can be de-
vised to make our two countries into one.

" What Is Et?"

The District of Columbia is in a curious
position. 1t is not State; it is not Territory
Ten years ago territorial government was formed
with legislative body and a governor, and the
right was given to the people also to elect dele
gate to Congress, as is done by other organized
Territories. This enrolled the District among the
Territories of the United States. This act was
tirey repealed June 20, 1874 and the District was
placed under the government of Board of Com
missioners consisting of three persons to be nomi
mated by the President and confirmed by the Sem
ate. The territorial government having been
wholly abolished, the District is-well, no one can
tell what it is unless it is the what is it.-Nclg

BOURBON HOUSEHOLD BALLADS.
I" Twenty Years Ago."

I've wandered to the Senate, Ben,
I've sat upon the seat
That held me once, as you may ken,
Before we met defeat:
But none are left to greet me, Ben,
And few are left TO know
Who helped us vote like Bourbon men
Some twenty years ago!
The Chamber looks the same, dear Ben
Bald-headed men and gray
Are blowing Just as we did then,
To pass the time away;
But Bourbon rule is ended now,
Where once we used to blow
And do our best to raise row,
= Some twenty years ago.
My throat has long been dry, dear Ben,
But moistens as I think
Of all those gallant Bourbon men
Who used with me TO drink;
Of Mason, Benjamin. Slidell,
And Je fl, who clustered so,
And helped rebelIion's tale to tell
Some twenty years agoI
We're sadly in the background now
For want of Bourbon votes;
For some are found who will not bow
And wear our Bourbon coats;
But when again Solid South
Shall give us strength to blow,
Wen hlnSter, as each Bourbon mouth
Did twenty years ago.

The Truth TerseIy Told.

Conkling is the man who elected Gen
eral Garfield. After the defeat in Maine if he
had not come out and brought General Grant with
him. but if, like Achilles, he had remained in his
tent, General Hancock would have been elected,
and would have got $4,000 majority in the State of
New York. That is the reason why the people
think that he has good cagse to feel aggrieyed
But who knows that he feels aggrieyed? And
yet the attempt is made day after day 10 break him
down. Let him be broken down. Let the Stall
wartism which he is the leader of be driven off,
and the State of New York is irredeemably lost to
the Republican party. Without the pivotal State
their cause is hopeless.-GeReralB Butler.
