RENEWED LABOR TROUBLES

Strikes are beginning In several
places in the country aud there are
Indications Of the renewal Of wide
spread labor troubles. Some Of the
disputes have arisen from o refusal OF
employers to advance wages, and
others from the rtfusal of employees
to accept the reduction insisted upon
by their employers.
In many instances strikes are In
evltable. They are ofsen ~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 a misunderstanding be.
tween the contracting parties and
might be avoided by mutual COM.
promise and concessions.
All experience has shown that q
strike on a 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 aud after several months It IL
easy to make q little compromise, let
the men again at work and count up
the profits.
OF course it must DO understood
that employers rarely increase wages
unless asked and every working
man has tho right not only to demand
such an increase but to Withhold his 10.
Dor If 1t Is not granted. On q risin z
market the chances are that the en-
ployer will find IT to his own interest
to grant the Increase. If not q str ike
may bring him to terms.
Just at the present time any ex-
tensive labor troubles will certainly
affect workingmen more unfavorably
than their employers. ALI the markets
are weak and dropping. There Is 9
general tendency towards economy In
expenditure, and o consequent ten.
dency towards economy In production.
This is especially the Icase 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 injudlciouu
and unseasonsble.
There is one phase OF the labor
question which has not been generally
considered, and that 10 the
tendency Of injudicious strikes

lies. By closing up small and
weak factions they concentrate cap
ital and power yer labor in few
hands and narrow orioles that can be
more easily combined and brought
into concert TO defeat Feasible 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 distress-is the establishment Of
greater confidence between employers
and employed. What the United
States needs are boards Of arbitration
f,r the settlement Of disputes and thu
protection Of our w~orkinpmen. II

THE temperance question ID to be
fought over again In Ohio this year,
and the fall campaign will ono more
be distracted by the Issue. Two
amendments will be submitted to the
voters Of the states, a follows:
"First-The general assembly shall
regulate the trsfi, In Intoxicating
iiq Tors 90 ~ to provide against evils
resulting therefrom; and is power to
le y Iaxes or assessments thereon, Ia
not limited by any provision Of this
constitution.
Second-The manufacture OF and
the traffic In intoxicating liquors to be
1sed a. Q beverage are forever pro
hibited, and the general ASSEMBLY
shall provide by law for the enforce
ment of this provision"
These amendments have passed the
legislature by nearly a party vote. A
third amendment passed the senate
and may possibly also be submitted
10 the people:
"Third-Ths general assembly ma!
provide by law { r. licensing the ira fiji
In intoxicating liquors."
1t will be seen that the voters II
Ohio will DO given q scope Of choio
which ought &c satisfy the mort ex

SOCIALISM,
A Brief but Comprehensive State
ment Of It's Doctrines and
-
Philosophy. X

l have received copy of the above
titled work, and have just finished read
ing it. 1t is written by A. J.Starkweather
and s. Robert Wilson and is published
| by the San Francisco Truth Publishing
company.
This little book is by far the most con-
prehensive treatise of the doctrines of
socialism that have ever seen, and fills
long felt want. All over the land the
cry has gone up from the oppressed and
disheartened people. what are we to
do; what is the real idea and theory of
Socialism," Messrs, Starkweather and
Wilson have answered this question in
language so plain that any man can fully
understand; and if there be one heavily
laden son of toll who will read their lit
tie book through carefully and not catch
lucid glimpseof the road to his liberty
through it, he is certainly Intellectually
dwarfed by his long subsection.
The eapitalistic press, the pulpit and the
politicians have studiously misrepresent-
ed the principles and aims of Socialism
to thetpeople for obvious reasons and
successfully held them aloof from an
honest investigation of hesubiect. And,
/ am sorry to say, some of the so-called
labor press have, with zeal worthy a
better cause, fought the PRONUNCIATION of
its doctrines. 4. z
Therefore, 1 welcome with unbounded
Joy the excellent work of Brothers Stark
weather and Wilson, and 1 now pledge
my untiring efforts to the circulation of
their little book. 1 shall continue
the publication of series of extracts
from Socialism. or Evolution or Revolu-
ton" in THE ENQUIRER, and 1 respect
fully urge their careful perusal by every
reader of the paper.
For the purpose of more speedily and
thoroughly circulating this admirable
and effective propaganda shall at once
order number of copies of the book and
will keep them for sale at this office. All
who desire copy can procure it, by CALI
ing or sending, at Is cents each-the pub
fishers price. 1t is worth one hundred
tires the money to every wageworker
in the land. Send in your order early.
1 also can furnish Stepnaik's Under
ground Russia" and Henry Georges
Progress and Poverty" for 20 cents a
copy each; or any other labor literature
not usually found in book stores. The
prices you will pay me are those fixed by
the publishers, and if you prefer you can
send to them, but do not fail to do one
thing or the other.

belonSfng to the French Revolution and

Yet how much better Is the realspirit
which anlmates : British and American
prison to-day? Here is = pious God
fearing New England deacon deliberately
telling me that in the prison which he
superyises the rules of discipline are
such that step by step and year by year
the intellects of these Gods creatures
are systematically unseated, 50 that it is
. very rare case that one holds out over.
fifteen years without becoming COM
plete idiot. If this is not species of
suul-Fobbing Of the most atrocious order,
then confess to being : fool myself The
story Of barbarity in British prisons as
told by William Cobbett, John Mitchell.
and the hundreds Of martyrs to liberty
and Justice who have tasted their foul
damps. need not be told to Irish readers.
Yet it is these very two countries, Eng
land and America, who claim to be the
most advanced leaders of modern Chris
tian civilization and the pioneers Of aad-
yanced IDEAS Newgate, Kilmainham,
Auburn. and Tewksbury give the lie to
such pretensions.
| 1 could easily fill half page Of the
Irish World with lessons suggested by
our present abominable prison system,
but must be content with mentioning
one more thing told me by my pious
friend. He said there was certain
Bible-class young man serving out a
sentence in the prison for embezzlement
whom he pitied very much. The young
man was engaged in soling shoes, under
| the nefarious contract system which pre-
walls in my state. Yet, according to the
deacon's own statement, the young man
was required by the prison contractor to
stuff thespacebet the inner and outel
soles with leather shayings, after which
the shoes were sold to the public as gen
uine solid-soled articles. In other words
| the young man was put into prison fol
fraud and required by the prison officials
| to practice fraud daily at his bench
This is, indeed, moral discipline and cor
rection with vengeance. And yet
| doubt if there is prison in the United
4 States in which the contract system pre-
walls where this same swindle and fraud
is not carried ON unblushingly under
official eyes.
The five leading reforms now before
| the world are conceded to be: -:
! Land reform. i. F.. -
Labor reform. X RI ,-r..
Currency reform. al
Suffrage reform. &c.. sEs
Prison reform. k.
Though put prison reform last in the
roll it is by no means the least. Inotict
with great pleasure that the Irish Worlc
has given this latter subject considerable
attention of late. If there is any ont
people on the face of the earth who ART
naturally interested in justice to prison
ers it is the Irish, for their martyree
patriots in British dungeons have beer
. among the most conspicuous example,
of hellish brutality in this line. 1 als'
heartily congratulate the workingmen o
: New York on their success in abolinh
ing contract barbarity in the prisons o
, the Empire state. May the workingmel
of other states follow their noble ex
ample. and may all good men and tru
, aid by their mite in the grand work o
, prison reform. HoNoRIUs.
