sion ON the part of those who are grind
ing them down? We do not believe it.
The only trouble is, that strikes are
too few and too narrow in their scope
We would to God we had the power to
persuade every man, woman and child
who earn their bread by toll, to join in
one grand, universal stri Ike for more pay,
We should shout for Joy if we awoke to-
morrow morning to find that tevery toiler
had laid down his tools aor imple-
ments, and refused longer to produce
what went to fatten few, while he and
his we're in want.
AS we have said before discretion
should, in these times, be used in local
strikes. Not discretion as to whether
there was a show to obtain the few pal
try cents advance asked, but discretion
as to whether the principle involved
was correct; whether it would call for
the sympathy Of fellow-laborers or th eir
contempt. There should be no toadying
to the present interests of the country.
The men who own and manage the
country to-day are our bitterest foes -
our jailers.
There is no use in beating around the
bush in this matter any longer. The
peopIemust get up; must DEMAND a
greater portion of the products Of their
labor; and we say let the strikes 60 on.
Let them become universal Usurped
power, and money, and land will not
buy bread for the rich, if there is no
bread to buy, An empty, gnawing
stomach sometimes wakens a man.

don't like the smell Of powder, we will

In all soberness, we think livery bad
taste for any man who claims to. be the
friend of the laborer, to rant and tear
the air because everyone doesn't believe
as hs does, whether his object is for pop
uIarity with our friends or our foes, and
we are glad to know that the majority of
those interested in the elevation Of the
masses are willing to allow all men their
opinions and are ready to reason for the
best plans. We are strongly opposed to
all monopolies, and are not disposed to
make an exception for monopoly of
opinion.

STRIKES.

Considerable is being said at this time
concerning labor strikes, and there is no
end to the diversity Of opinions on the
subject There is class Of people who,
when they read that workingmen in
some locality have struck for an advance
or against a reduction Of wages, throw
up their hands in holy horror at the de-
generacy Of the times and the wicked
UesS of a certain class Of people. There
is another kind, who claim to be of the
people and whose lives and sympathies
are given to the cause Of humanity, who
sally forth with the white flag and cry
Peace " whenever men refuse to work
for less than they can exist upon. This
latter class argue that strikes are wrong
and one labor journal goes so far as to
call them unjustO because they fail.
Does the history Of the world show that
right and justice always succeed? We
could cite ten thousand instances to the
contrary but the charge is 50 weak and
contemplate that it is not worthy of
refutatiOn.
We are not an advocate of strikes
when they can be avoided. When it is
possible to settle disputes and disagree
mentS by arbitration or other peace
methods, we are in favor of avoiding
strikes. But when employers ignore
entirely the rights of working en-
when they refuse even to confer upon
or consider in any manner the just de-
mands of their employees, we say the
men are justified in striking.
We know the other side will ask,
What does he gain by striking? If he
loses, he is thrown out of employment;
if he wins, he generally loses more time
than his advanced pay will bring him in
months sometimes years" We say if
he loses, he has only lost job, and re-
tanned his manhood and independence
and his subjection is only a prolonged
starvation any way. Ifhe wins, he has
vindicated principle, and given his
brothers all over the land encourage
ment. Strikes are the little skirmishes
on the march to revolution. If the skir-
mishes are successful, the grand battle
is averted. Does any thinking man. be-
lieye there is any method of much longer
deferring an uprising of the people
against the cruelty and hardships to
which they are subjected but a conces,

THE Inter-Ocean in speaking Of the
dynamite policy in Ireland, falls into
line with the rest Of the toads. 1t says
Independence obtained by such means
would not command respect, and We do
not believe it would be lasting" Inde-
pendence is independence, however OBJ
tanned, and if the Irish people are so
ground down, MANNED and crippled that
they cannot march to liberty to the
sound of martial music, they are justi-
fled 10y all the laws Of humanity and of
self preservation to proceed IS best they
can. A man who talks Of Honorable
warfare" to people who dare not
possess a blow-gun is all enemy or a
fool America freed itself from English
rule in battle, by the shedding of blood.
If the taking of life in the cause Of free
dom and liberty be justified, whatmatter
how the murder be done Americans
shed their brothers blood in emanci-
pating the black race, and thousands
were hurled to death by mines Of ex-
pIosive8 laid under their supposed strong
holds. They didn't call it murder then,
or the means used, dynamite, but it was,
nevertheless, an engine Of war, used to
aid in iberating an ensIaved people,
and the land was drenched with the
blood of man. Tie end justified the
means in that case; so it does. in the
case of the Irish people, They can do
nothing else. Such men as the editor of
the Inter- Ocean speak with tearsin their
eyes of Washington, Lincoln, and some
times Robert Emmett, but O'Donoyan
Rosa is a monstrosity to vhem. II
Rossa's ideas were carried out and were
successful, tears would flow in after
years from these great worshiperS Cd
dead patriots, when the anniversary OF
his birth made its annual appearances.
Out with such freemen: They know
not the difference between the Stars
and Stripes and dirty shirt.

WE are tending in the United States
to an aristOcraCy a thousand times
worse than that in England Our wealth
is being concentrated into fewer hands
than tn htirS, and the number of paupers
teU-fold greater viii we submit to it?
In the old country they have been reared
on the plan of master and man, and it
is difficult to make some Of the subjects
believe the system is wrong But here
we have been taught from our cradle
that all men are born equal and have
the same rights, and now will we quietly
consent to drift into a master and slave
regime? Every dollar that makes the
money kings Of America richer, further
impoverishes the people 100 cents. Will
you settle this matter quietIy, while the
opportunity 50 to do is still open to you,
or will you wait to do it by the spiIIing
of blood? Let him who will call this
"cranky," the thinking man knows it is

the Chinese government has its subjects
here dong our washing. =
There is belief amongst some that
the Chinamens' cue is his badge of relig-
ion, and that he believes if he loses it
he will be damned. This is wholly un-
true. The significance of the cue is,
that he belongs to China, and no mat
ter where he goes, he can be pulled
back at the will of the company to
which he belongs.
Speaking of religion reminds US that
there are some good missionaries IN tins
city who are deyotingt themselves to edu-
eating and Christianizimg Chinese-the
most absurd thing that has come to our
notice in a long time. The Chinese
knew more about theology thousands of
years ago than the American people do
to-day. Ifyou take the Chinaman for
an ignoramus, you make a grand mis-
take. His information is only exceeded
by his shrewdness.
The Cinnamon know they have no
right here, as they are, and they are
very careful not to awaken the same
truth in the breasts Of the people they
are bleeding and, if possible, intend to
suck dry. Have our readers noticed
that very few Cinnamon are seen on our
streets now with their hair hanging
down, or dressed in the fashy blue they
were wont to wear? Come to think of
it, that strikes you as 80. Have you
thought why this change has taken
place? You think there are less of
them here than there used to be- The
truth of it s}there are more of them !;
but because Of the objections raised to
them, they disguise themselves so as
not to attract notice. This scheme is
not only being worked in Denver but
wherever this vermin are in any num-
Der Their purpose is to allay public
opinion before the expiration of the ten
year restriction law, 50 that there will
be no new enactment of that character
When we think of all this business
and plainly see to what it will lead un-
less the necessary steps are taken, we
feel like going forth ana melting the
people to mob and butcher every thiev-
ing, internal Chinaman in the country !;
but we have placed the matter in the
foregoing plain language, cooIIy, so that
those who have not needed the warn
ings from time to time sent out by OBJ
servers and thinkers, would not say it
was the talk Of raving, rampant
fanatic.
Every word we have used, every as
sertion we have made is as true as truth
itself; and any one can satisfy himself
that such is the case by little investi-
cation and research. From California
goes up the cry of those made wretched
and miserable by the inroads the Chi
nese have made upon them, and Colo
RADIO may echo the cry some day.

A New work on practical economy,
entitled WeaIth-Creation," has just
been issued by Nessrs Ca8sel, Peter,
Gaspin q Co. 1t is from the pen Of Au-
gustus Mongredin, Of England, with an
introduction by Simon Sterne. Mr.
Mongredin is the author Of "Free
Trade and English Commerce." The
new work is said to bea logical treatise
upon the subject Of the creation of
wealth, and is strongly in favor Of free
trade. This will of course be charged to
the fact that the author is an English
man. However, we are induced to be-
heve, from the extracts we have seen,
that the argument is good. Not having
seen a copy Of "Wealth-Creation, ," wedo

We learn from parties who recently
visited st. Paul that the Attorney Gen.
eral is taking testimony now. in the
Railroad Land tax cases. A number
of those who went up to st. Paul from
this part Of the State favored calling q
convention to conajder the question Of
taxation and Of getting the lands on
the market, but It was finally thought
u decision from the courts might be
had before long aud no action was TAX
en- toward calling a convention.
II the convention waits for q decision
1t may not be called before next year.
A convention would unite and give
force to public sentiment in favor OF
putting these idle lands to use. The
question of taxation would be- only one
