THE GREAT STRIKE.

The great strike of ironworkers is an i'm pressive affair. It affects all the mills west of the Alleghany mountains and north of the Ohio river, and throws about one hundred thousand men out of work It is fight be- tween two powerful organizations-those of the manufacturers and the workmen. It has been customary for both parties to agree on schedule of wages for the year, under which, with minimum fixed, the rate paid rises and falls with the price of iron and steel. The year for such agreements ends June 1st each year. This year, when negotiations came about for new schedule, the manuH lecturers, in view of the stagnation of the iron business, presented to the men a scale which made reduction of twenty to twenty five per cent in wages. The workmen re- fused to accede, but brought to the manu- lecturers 8 scale which they would consent to, which, they said, involved reduction of about ten per cent. The manufacturers de- nied that this was reduction and refused to accept the scale. They found themselves suddenly changed from the aggressive to the defensive side. They had schedule pre- scented to them, and to them was left the de- cision. The men said they would quit unless their rate was accepted. The manufacturers said they would close their mills rather than pay the rates desired, and the strike fol- lowed.
 What the result of this contest will be cannot be foretold. It has been entered on by both sides deliberately and thoughtfully. The proprieters say that they are glad to shut down for time on account of the lack of demand for their productions. The men are generally good natured and profess to be confident that the proprietors will soon agree to their schedule of prices. If the demand for iron increases they will probably succeed, but there is no prospect of an immediate ina provement. Meanwhile, in the South, where wages are lower, and there is no difference between employers and employed, industri- ous preparations are going forward to meet the demands which are expected to result from the strike. The proprietors of the mills involved in the strike will very much dislike to see their customers going to the southern mills, which are already an alarm ing menace to the northern ironmasters. The strike, if it is long continued, may and probably will have some very important re- sults

i of public and professional men. He found 1 that the average age at death of the twenty
 five nest prominent American statesmen during the last hundred years was 69. The l average of an equal number of English l statesmen was 70 years-practically the same. He thought the latter did more work at an advanced age. The difference in favor of English, as compared with American, po- itical life was brought out by comparing the ages at death of members of the British Parliament with those of the United States Congress who died between 1900 and 1884. Of our Senators, 59 gave an average of 61 years; 146 Representatives averaged 55 years, and the average for both was 68. The 121 members of Parliament averaged 68
 years at death.
 The last report of the Bureau of Agricul- ture contains a very interesting record of
 wages and prices for the twenty-five years,
 1s60- 1884, in Somerset county, New Jersey.
 The average prices obtained by the farmer
 for wheat, corn, oats and hay are given, the
 average wages paid per year, per day, per day in having and per day in harvest; and the quantity of corn, wheat and oats which the years wages would purchase each year. The latter statement is, of course, the epi- tome of all the rest; it shows what proper ton of the products of his labor the farm worker gets each year for the labor given. In 1860 the years wages would purchase 93 bushels of wheat; in 1884 the years wages would purchase 187 bushels of wheat, g 1 shade more than twice as many. In 1860 the years wages would purchase 173 bushels of corn; in 1884 the years wages would pur- chase $50 bushels, 8 little more than twice as many. In oats, however, the increase has been small, from 433 to 560 bushels. Reck- oning the three together, the increase in pur- chasing power of wages has been 77.6 per cent.
 Hamilton Wilcox has succeeded in keeping
 some important secrets until lately, but they
 have finally proved too much for him and he has made them public in letter to the Womans Journal. He says that it was gen orally understood that MT. ConKfing, then United States Senator, directed the prosecu- tion of Susan B. Anthony and other women
 for voting at State election, ten or a dozen
 years ago, and that s'the judge wrote out be-
 ferehand his opinion prejudging the case and
 cond emning the accused and taking the mat
 ter from the jury" In consequence of this,
 Wilcox asserts, five years afterward the
 woman suffragists squared their accounts
 with MT. Conkling by helping President
 Hayes displace Conkling's friends from fed
 eral offices in this State" This vengeance of theirs ''taught Conkling lesson," so
 that Che next year nominated Alonzo B. Cor
 nell, an avowed woman suffragist, for Gov
 ernor, and George G. Hoskins, another
 suffragist, for Lieutenant Governor" and finding the suffrage advocates "willing to help him elect such candidates" MT. Conk-
 ling spoke in the Senate in friendly terms of the cause. Afterwards he secured
 Arthur's nomination for Vice Presi
 dent and Folger's for Governor, both
 being friends of woman suffrage. This is in
 teresting, if not true.

Senator Hen Hillss A Altetien. Tfto,- PhiIadalnhia Tiu,Mc |

It has been noticed that men in the army and navy not only hold most tenaciously to life, but meet the great conqueror with more fortitude than any other class of men, but there was within my view one notable excep- tion to this rule. Senator Ben Hill, of Geor- gia, met death as heroically as any man that ever lived. He was afflicted as much as Gen. Grant is. I shall never forget the day when we met by appointment for the first surgical operation. He was anxious that no member of his family should know the truth as to his condition until after the operation was per- formed. Together we went to Jefferson col lege hospital and on the way he said with 8 touch of sadness in his tones: '1 am in per feet physical health, with the exception of this cancer. have never been severely sick in my life and ought to have several years of useful life before me. There are great ques- tions coming up in this country for settle ment and want to live and take part in their discussion and decision; but if the worst comes to the worst shall be content to meet my fate like man." An hour later 8 third of his tongue had been cut out by doctors and for two days and nights there after, until his family reached Philadelphia, never left the side of the sufferer. Through it all he was as full of fortitude king. From the first operation he rallied, but the second and third mutilation followed with physical distress enough to have broken the spirit of the stoutest. Yet after more than two years of waiting and watching he met the unseen and unknown with perfect com posture.
