pE GENEROUS 10 THE vANoUsnED

Now that the great strike Is over, and the
Western Union has won the victory, that
great corporation can afford to be generous
to the vanqushed 1t should be remembered
that nearly 10000 operators were out Of po-
siton, through their own indlscretion, 1t is
true. This means that large army of not
only unemployed but disOlI'ected people are
upon the community, with-a disposition
that may be productive Of
harm. These persons have
also the sympathy OF another vast army OF
laborers, and only waiting to develop into
active hostility when some favorable OPP
portunity may perchance present. We ought
to remember that when the south was de-
feated In the civil strife that reconstruction
was promoted by spirit Of Cancellation. A
denial OF these people OF kindly treatment,
socially and politically, would have made
TIE work OF restoration far more expensive
aud protracted, and perhaps impossible.
We ought to remember, too, that France
has has never forgotten nor forgiven Prus-
sia, and her citizens to this day harbor .
Wondering feeling Of resentment. This is
human nature, and IL would seem that the
better policy for the Western Union to now
pursue would be that Of leniency and liber'
atty. The strikers have laid down theiI
arms, -captulated without consideration
aud sue for peace. There is no contest
now, nor are there any outroges that The
g-eat company have recorded agans
their former employees during thu
fight. Under these circumstance
would. power or dignity be unbendlng to'
far to give little bread asd meat occupa
ton to once-eiliclent servants, however nm
prudent and erring these may have been II
their mistaken steps2 Is their friendship
not better than their enmity, their service
no. preferable to the absence Of them
We dsapproyed and rep'obated the unwis
course of the strikers, while we applaudet
the true, resolute and courageous course O
the Western Union and We felt only to-
positive Ms to the final result, but as we oh
served above, the warfare is over, let pleas

MES OF talent do not goabrosd from this
country. for recognition. GENERAL STONE,
who came into notice during the Egyptian
campaign Of 1882 as SroSK PAsuA, aud VIII
then resigned and returned to America,
has had more calls for his services as an
engineer since his return than he could
possibly heed, and both gold and honorS
have been.nowing in upon him. AS the
chief engineer Of the Florida Ship Canal
company, he now has the opportunities 10
per'ecta work, the Importance Of which
may place his name alongside Of those Of

TnR Coarler-Joumal THE aditors of
those northern journals who have not yet
put of the panoply OF war against the
south, ard who insist that that section Is
still in rebellion against the Union, should
visit the southern exposition. To them it
would prove an educator and oivillzer.
When in the fine exhibit from Arkansas
they see in the most prominent positions
the faces OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN and JAMS
A. GARFIELD, surely these men must learn
lesson not all the years since the war have

A GRAND EvENr.toR raE SOUTH.

This is essentially the era of big things,
costly undertakings, daring ventures, and,
happily, in the direction of the conQuests Of
peace and not the overwhelmings of war.
The grasp OF intellect to conceive, the or
ganiEing ability TO inaugura,e, and the
executive talent to prosecute, are not now
wanted for the tinselled general OF slayeis
ofhuman beings, but are In demand for the
Q cooperation OF those grand achievements
that build up aud promote the welfare of
humanity, and induce brotherhood OF the
peoples Of the world. The SutE canal, the
E,p's jetties, the construction of immense
railways, the swinging OF suspension
bridges, the tunnelling through mountains
aud under rivers and seas, the putting OF a
glrdle around the earth-all these enter.
prlses, involving each millions and millions
of dollars, indicate what giant grasp
the mind OF to-day is capable of and is dis
posed to indulge In, as we'll as the DRIFT to.
ward universal peace policy.
And now among these mighty events
comes another project that Is TO be carried
into early and practical effect, We refer to
tbs Florida Ship canal, with is manifold
advantages TO the country at large and the
southern section Of II In particular. Here
will be required some $50 Ooo,0Oo. And yet
as soon as IL Is shown that the In.
vestment will pay, presto, an assur.
ance Of the forthcoming Of the money
Is given. This Is a great scheme, the
excavations alone costing $40 900 900. But
for these southern ports II is frausht with
most momontous consequences. Among
the commercial benefits 10 accrue will b.
the great saving Of distance between the
Mexican gulf ports and the ports Of the

lance on steam vessels between Ne"
Orleans and New York will he 900 miller
and between New Orleans ana
Liverpool it will be 400 mites
In other words, steamship, sailing eleven |
miles per hour, would gain about lor'I -h'e
hours in the passage from New YORK 10
New Orleans, and the same on the return
trip, less time OF steaming through the
canal, at six miles per hour, or about thirty
seven hours each way; taking the present
average of the round trip at twenty zone
days, including four days IN each port, the
canal would reduce the time OF the round
trip to eighteen days, enabling her to make
profits on at least three more round Voy-
ages per year, ut no increase OF expense
One can appreciate the gain in avoidlrg
the dangerous passage through the Florida
Straits by considering some data The
olcal statistics Of FIVE recent years show
that 1926 salvage cases were adiudicated in
tho United States district court Tor the
southern district of Florida, TO the value OF
} more than $ll0OO,O00, and careful esti

SUIT AGAINST BUTLER
BY the Managing Board Of the National
Soldiers Home for $4,000.

HARTFORD, Conn. Nov. %.
A suit has been brought against Butler by
Gen. W. B. Franklin, President of the Ma
Home for Disabled Soldiers 1t is to re-
cover $4,000 furnished from the general
treasury to the manager of the branch at
Togus, Me while Butler was president and
treasurer of the National Home and was re-
paid by the TOgus branch to Butler. 1t is
claimed that he did not pay this into the
treasury apd has refused the demands of the
managers for the money.
BOsTON. Nov. %.
In connection with the suit by the National
Home for disabled soldiers against Gen. But
Ter, it is said the writ bears the date Oct. l,
1888, and on that day Butler acknowledged
the service in person. 1t appears that after
retirement from the board of management,
the trustees, Influenced no doubt by charges
which appeared in public print, some time
caused an examination of accounts to be
made. and it is alleged it was discovered that
the general was indebted SIS, 900 to the
Home. Butler was apprized of the defic-
iency and asked to make good the amount.
Since then he has been repeatedly asked to
settle, bat his reply has been invariably that
if it could be shown he was indebted to the
Home in any amount he would at once make
it good. THY they have endeavored to do
without avail, hence the suit. 1t is also
stated that plaintiff bases the right to bring
the suit in the circuit court of this district
upon the ground that the president of the
Home is a resident of Hartford. This right
the defendant denies on the ground that the
Home being National institution. chartered
by Congress, the residence of the president
has nothing 10 do with its right to bring
suits.

Poole. the Dublin Irishman who has
been tried on so many different charges of
murder and conspiracy. has finally been
found guilty OF assassinating William
Kenny, and has been sentenced to death
Kenny was suspected of having given In
formation to the English authorities con
cerning the murder of Cavendish and
Burke. Pool was convicted principall,
BY the the testimony of an informer named
Lamie; but the latter's statements were
coroborated by circumstances described
by other persons. This verdict will be
apt to make the killing of informers less
attractive work for the members of secre,
organizations in Ireland. 1t indicates,
also, that popular feeling will have no in
fiuence on the result in the case OF O'Don-
nell, who slew Carey.
