The Situation at Harrisburg.

1t has become painfully manifest that
the stalwart leaders OF the senate have
determined that no appointments
shall be made and that the present an
fa!r and unconstitutional Ge:rymander
shall stand. BY this unrighteouS
course they expect to make the extra
session an utter failure and thereby
cast odium upon Gov. PAttison for hav
ing called it. In this they will utterly
and ignobly fail.
The democratic house has done its
duty fully. Did all 1t can do or ought
TO do, but the senate has every time de-
feated all the reasonable propositions of
the house for even measurably fair APP
portionment and the fullillmont of
sworn constitutional duty. Let the
matter rest here and let the session ad-
iournd without delay. IL is worse
than useless TO prolong it. The demo-
Gratis have placed themselves on record
by the Ilumcs resolution SO fully and
fairly that the people can not fail to
place the responsibility of failure where
it properly belongs, and democratic
congress will teach the stalWart bosses
of Pennsylvania that they can not over
ride the constitution OF both state and
nation, the law and we'll established
precedent, With impunity.
Let the extra session, made SO utterly
useless by Cooper, Reyburn Il Co., at
iourn. The dempcratS can well afford
TO do it.

Next Falls Election.

Only seven Of the Northern States
hold elections which are of any import
ance this fall. They are Massachu
setls, New York, New Jersey, Penn
sylvAnia, Ohio, Iowa, Minnesota.
They all vote in November except .
hio, which votes il October. These
States, all supported GARFIELD except
New Jersey, which barely went for
HANCOCK.
In the whole seven the Republicans
are now torn by factions more bitter
than ever distracted them before. 1t

The Ope ators Strike.

At noon on Thursday last the great
strike of the Western Union and Rapid
Transit telegraph operators was in
augurated. The runor that Gen.
Grant had fallen dead in the streets of
Chicago during the morning from ap-
poplexy was construed as the signal for
country Offices to join in the strike, as
word of that kind could more likely
reach them than a cipher message.
The rumor was given out at exactly
IL. 10 a. m, and caused a most pIo
found sensation wherever it gained
publicity. The evening papers bristled,
teemed with obituaries, accompanied
by excuses for the meagre particulars
of the generals sudden death, and the
telegraph centres were besieged with
inquiri4s as to the true situation of af-
fairs.
The strikers dem and al increase of
ID per cent, on salaries, total abolition
of Sunday work, unless for extra pay,
reduction of the working hours from
10 to in day time aud 7 hours for
night work. 1t is believed that the
companies woull have conceded some
OF these points, hut net all. The oper-
ators demanded all or nothing, and be-
ing refused they made a general strike
throughout the entire country.
Of the probable duration of the strike
and the final result nothing can of
course be said at this time. excepting
that il forebodes to be long and tough.
The companies are fast substituting
new operators and are getting along as
best they can under the circumstances,
while the strikers are supported and
encouraged by their own organization
and other labor unions.

The Living Practica! Issues.

From the Cleariie,d Citizen.
The administrations Of Governor
Pattison, of Pennsylvania, and Cleve-
land, ot New York, with Butler, of
Massachusetts, have declared war upon
jobbery and extravaganza in the man
agement Of the state governments.
With such living practical issues before
the people in 1881, it Will be useless to
divert attention from the real issue, and
are the best assurance that democratic
success means cheap, honest govern
ment administered by those chosen by
the people. Equal rights OF labor and
capital under the law, with such an ad-
juStment of the tariff rs will provide
all necessary revenues, and give due
protection to American industries with
out fostering or creating monopolles.

1t is a great relief to the country to
know that Pres ident Arthur's summer

and take in the louisville Exposition

Only one thi ng is needed to carry
Maryland over to the Republican col.
umn of States at the next election, and
that thing is prudence or good sense,
whichever term is most expedient to
use 1t will not do for the Republic
cans to split and q'.arrel about trivial

for them to adopt the old fractional
method of carrying primary elections,
but they must discard that which has
been their ruin in the past. If they do
this and let the voice of the people have

of honest candidates they will he aided

Governor Hamilton, if not the most
learned and polished Governor that
Maryland has ever had, is at least Onco
the most honest and conscientious Gov

Convention, because he has had the

measures brought about and upheld
BY the best elements Of the Democratic

The striking telegraph operators cois-
tinue defiant, and pretend to think that
they will eventually force the telegraph
companies to accept their terms. To
us It seems that they will fail In their
purpose, and that the continuance OF
this strike is q great mistake. The
companies appear TO b getting along
pretty we'll, and In . short time the
new operators will be ~ expert IN the
old ones. All the strikers, therefore
cannot hope to be installed in their for
mer positions even if the scale Of wages
prepared by them should be accepted.
Many will be compelled to seek new
places or engage in some other occupa-
ton. In such event they may readily
estimate the amount of their gains from
the course they have pursued. The
person who advices strikes is all enemy
not real friend, of the industrial class
90. No strike Of this kind ever did re-.
suit to the advantage of the laborer and
no one ever will. There should not be
. contest between the employer and
employee. Every question in regard
to the hours Of labor and wages should
be amicably adjusted.
If the employer will not, on proper
representation, pay a fair comp ,nsation
to his laborers, they should either pro-
cure employment of some other party,
or engage in business on their own &C.
count Such a course would be com.
mendable, as 1t would prove advanta .
geous TO them selves and to the commu
nifty at large. 1t is the duty of every
man to do the best he can to promote his
own interests in a legitimate and hon
orable manner, but doubtful expedients
and illegal acts should never be resort.
cd to. Associations or individuals who
encourage them must be condemned.
They act from false premises, and the
result must prove Instantaneous to
the entire business community.
In fact associations intended to con-
troll prices of labor should not he en-
couraged or upheld. An association of
laborers should not be permitted to dis
turb the business of the entire country
whenever they elect to do so. They are
wrong in principle and such combina-
tions should be prohibited as are con-
spiracies Of any other kind.

THAT " DISTANCE lends enchaut-

advocacy of Senator Rayard AZ the
Democratic nominee for the Presl-
dency. The Statesman declares " Mr..
Bayard would receive the vote Of every
Southern State, and his strength in the
Northern States would be fully a.
great, not relatively speaking rs at the
South. Had he been nominated in 8H
he would be President" If the States

was cognizant Of Mr.. Bayard's persls
teucy to do nothing to correct long con
