/.
One of the quickest and most ro-
mantle marriages took place at Napa,
Cal, recently. The parties were
John A. Chandler, nephew of Zach
Chandler, grandson of Gen. John
Chandler, and nephew of Commander
Frank Chandler, of Portsmouth Navy
Yard, and Miss Mamie Osterloh, a
compact and solid little blonde
beauty, with expressive, dark blue
eyes and golden hair, and with a
mouth and chin the most tempting
in the world. She came away like a
bird from her house and home. with
out soul knowing it, and meeting
Chandler at the depot, threw herself
in his arms, saying, "Well. I did it,
John. didn't I?' The couple were
married in two minutes by Judge B.
Robinson, and pronounced man and
wife.
A TALK WITH POET.
A New Yorker who recently visited
John G.. Whittier, at Danvers, Mass,
says in a letter to friend in New
York: ''Mr. Whittier usually leaves
Boston for Amesbury about the 1st
of April, and then retires to Danvers
for the summer. His country home
is about mile from the railroad sta
tion. found the poet in small
room retired from the main part of
the house, and surrounded by his
books and papers. His tall form
is slightly bowed with age, but he re.
tains all his old-time courtesy to
strangers. He alluded to his corre-
spondence, which was so large as to
make irksome drafts upon his time
and patience. Since Longfellow and
Emerson died. said he, DIR. Holmes
and I have received much of their
fugitive correspondence, which, ad-
ded to our own, sometimes proves a
serious burden. / receive letters
daily from Portland, Me-, to Portland,
Or, from misses in their teens, to
boys in college. They send me their
verses with request that l attend
to the publication and remit them
the proceeds from time to time. The
most, however, under various dis
guises, entreat my autograph, re-
quest I should grant more willingly
il I knew them. As to my health, /
cannot complain; have never been
able to do protracted work, owing to
severe neuralgia pains in the head,
from which ] have suffered since ]
was boy. Unfortunately / have
promised considerable work to the
publishers, and this promise, unper-'
formed, weighs like an incubus upon
my spirits
"In discussing the recently pub
lished correspondence of Mrs. Car
lyle, and of Carlyle and Emerson,
Mr.. Whittier said: Carlyle seems to
have had none of the milk of human
kindness in his veins. His letters
show a side of his character which
none of his intimate friends sus-
pected. 1t would have been better
FOR his reputation if they had never
been published. In fact, so strongly
have they affected myself that / have
set to work and destroyed the major
part of my Correspondence, covering
a period of over fifty years, lest it
should be published after my death
and bring suffering to any. / wish
that all OF the letters / have written

same manner New York Tribune.

DAKoTA,s

Dakota Is all In q fsrment over the
new capital. The commissioners stole
a march on the people Of Yankton the
other day by arriving at the capital
before daylight In q sleeping car and
skipping out before an Injunction
could be served on them. Under the
act creating the commission they had
to first meet at the capital and organ.

and IL to all intents and purposes jest

tic with rage and they danced a scalp
dance with brandished tomahawke.
Indignation meetings were called and
held not only In Ysnkton but In o half
dozen river counties. Threats are
made sgainst the governor and the
Legislature and there Is the devil to
play generally. Two days ago the
Dakota commission landed In Sioux
City out Of harms reach
and after mature dellberation they
have decided to advertise for pro.
posals for q capital location. They
limit the location to some site on
the 46:h parallel which is central
between the north and south boun.
daries of the present territory of Da-
kota. Under the act, not leus than
SlO0. 900 Is to be accepted as q bo-
nus for the capital location, but
there will be no trouble In getting
treble that amount. As our friend
Tom Ksnnard would say, "There's
millions 10 It,"
The commissioners do not feel at

functions.

RENEWED LABOR TROUBLES.


Strikes are beginning In several
places in the country aud there are
Indications Of the renewal of vide
spread labor troubles. Some Of the
disputes have arisen from q refusal OF
employers to advance wages, and
others from the rtfosal of employees
to accept the reduction insisted upon
by their employers.
In many Instances strikes are In
evitable. They are often purposely
provoked by capitalists who Wish to
shut down their works until they ex-
hauut their surplus stock, and who ex.
cite dissatisfaction In order to curtail
production. But moro often they are
the result Of o misunderstanding be-
tween the contracting parties and
might be avoided by mutual com.
promise and concessions,
All experience has shown that q
strike on q falling market never pays.
When prices are dropping employers
are only too glad to shut down their
works and walt for better times. A
strike plays directly into their hands.
Production Is curtailed, the market Is
relieved and after several months It IL
easy to make q little compromise, let
the men again at work and count up
the profits.
OF course 1t must be understood
that employers rarely increase wages
unless asked and every working
man has tho right not only to demand
such an increase bat to Withhold his Ia.
Dor If 1t IL not granted. On a risin 2
market the chances are that the en-
ployer will find II to his own interest
to grant the Increase. If not q strike
may bring him to terms.
Just at the present time any e1-
tensive labor troubles will certainly
Affect workingmen more upfavorably
than their employers. All the markets.
are weak and dropping. There Is Q
general tendency towards economy In
expenditure, and Q oonst quent ten
dency towards economy In production.
This Is especially the Iosse with our
largest industries. Tae best Informed
authorities, and among them some Of
the most prominent members Of the
Knights Of Labor, agree that strikes
at the present time will be injudlcioul
aud u~nseasonable.
There Is one phase OF the labor
question which has not been generally
considered, and that 10 thu
tendency Of ipjudicious strikes
to build up industrial monopo
lies. By closing up small and
weak factions they concentrate cap
ital and power over labor in few
hands and narrow circles that q bt
more easily combined and brough'
into concert to defeat possible move
NETS on the part Of laborers.
The only remedy against the evil
of strikes-for whether they succeed
or fail they are always accompanied
by d~istress--is the establishment o
greater confidence between employer
and employed. What the Unitet
States needs are boards Of arbitration
f,r the settlement Of disputes and tn
protection Of q workinPmen. Il
