Great. good to the Irish national cause
can be accomplished by an organization
in this country such as that now in process
of formation. There is no doubt that the
Irish people are more united at the present
time than they have ever been before, and
the times are ripening for a movement
that will result in giving TO the people of

it can exercise powerful inhu-
ence upon the British government,
and mayhap induce the kindly
Offices of cur own government

existing difficulties. This can only be
done, however, by policy of moderation
yet firmness, of agitation confined to con-
stitutional Limitations, and by the discour-
agement and stamping out of the dynamite
party that is bringing such disgrace upon
the Irish cause and jeopardizing its ulti-
mate triumph. The leaders in the present

that this is the only wise policy for them
to pursue, and we should not be surprised

The Return, of the Jach-hntfc.
Lewiston (Me.) Journal. I


A gentleman on Lisbon street Saturday
was talking of the wonderful return of
Jack-knife that he lost twenty-five years,
ago. The gentleman has been visiting the
clerk of courts in Lewiston during the
past week. He made his jack-knife him
self upon his own forge, and in his leisure
moments covered the bone handle with,
his initials and number of odd devices.
A year after, in the deep SHOWS, on tho
road to Kingsbury, Ne, he overlook a
man attempting to tie up his sleigh that
had broken down. He jumped out to as
slst the man, lent him the jack knife, and,
forgetting it rode off without it. He
never saw the man again. Fifteen years
afterward his daughter married, and her
husband struck with the Western fever.
took trip West and brought up in Min
neapolls, MINI. Among the people in
that state with whom he came in contact
was one who was proverbially hard up.
Reduced to straits he had pawned every
thing. Coming along one day, with a
peculiar looking jack-knife, ne offered it
for sale. The gentleman bought it, and
came home soon after, and day or two
after his arrival he took the knife out of
his pocket. His wife bounced upon him.
With thousand rapturous expressions of
surprise, she demanded to know where he
got it. He told her he bought that knife
in Minneapolis. She said it was 'sfathers.''-
Father was brought in, and the knife was
identified as his. No explanation could
be offered by the gentleman as to how his
own identical jack knife, lost on country
road in Maine, should be found by his SON
in-law in the Western country. This was
ten years ago. The gentleman has the.
jack-knife now.

Il MOVE TO REDUCE WAGES RESI-.


The GLOBE will want some evidence bet
ter than irresponsible newspaper reports
before it will assume that the various la
Dor organizations of the city are interest.
ing themselves in the issue raised by the
printers who have recently retired from
this Office. For the benefit of
labor organizations the GLOBE will
give an item of inform alton.
Some two or three weeks ago the mana
ger of the GLOBE was waited upon by a
committee of the printers union, and ask
ed to make the Office 'union" Office. As
the"union"had voluntarily made the GLOBE
a ''non-union" Office, last fall, and the
GLOBE had accepted the issue, the request
was declined.
One of the leading arguments of the
union" committee was that if the GLOBE
was made a union Office it could save a
large amount by reducing the pay from 40
cents per 1000 ems, to 3S cents, the price
paid by the Pioneer Press!
Outside craftsmen, who interest them
selves in the controversy, can calculate
that they are engaging in movement to
reduce the price of labor, and that the
antagonism of the GLOBE consists in exer.
cising the privilege of paying the highest
wages of any printing Office in the state.
We confess that the desire of 700 crafts
men to have US reduce wages, ought to
have some consideration, and when
the business of the country becomes
less hourishing it may be in keeping with
everything else to grant the request and
reduce the pay. At present, the GLoBE
company feels that the price it is paying
is fair and proportionate to other things.
and it is not inclined to reduce wages, even
if it should prove, as is claimed, that the
labor unions generally, in the city, desire
US to do so. When the next panic comes
petition from craftsmen to have the
price of labor reduced might meet with a
different answer.
