Some fine day or other steamboat is go

of what will happen upon some of the

The Chicago strikers carried their point by
force and the Cleveland strikers appear
likely to do the same. Indeed, the authorities
of the latter city seem to be utterly indifTer-
ent in the matter. The strikers are compell-
ing manufactures to close up by threats of
violence and in every way seem to be work
Ing their own sweet will without interfer-
ence from anybody. If this sort of thing
goes ON it win not be long before capitalists
will have to repel force by force or close up
their establishments.

South Carolina is again brought unpleas-
antly to the front. The vicious system of
convict labor in that State has just been
made reyoltingly prominent The governor
caused an investigation which resulted in
showing up the grossest cruelty on the part
of oyerseers in charge of conyicts employed
on the Savannah railroad. Sixteen deaths
had taken place since January 1, owing
mainly to overwork, brutal tloggings and
bad food. 1t seems like retrograde civiliza-
ton when we have such reminders of those
historical chain-gangs that went to the mines
never to return
The Portland daily press., 1885-07-11

The Rockland Opinion says the riotous
acts in connection with the Chicago strike
were acts of individuals. No doubt The
strikers did not get together and formally
resolve to destroy the horse railroad cofnpa-
ny's property and stop its business. But it
viii be found that the instigators of the riots
were all members of the striking body
No doubt they had assistance. In great
city like Chicago there are always plenty of
idle and Vicious men ready to take part in
lawlessness, and many of the worst outrage5
were committed by these men But that
these men were only following the lead of
somebody connected directly with the strike
Is shown conclusively. by the fact that the
moment the horse car company agreed to ar
bitration the rioting ceased.
The southern papers Dear evidence TTat tile
Fourth of July was celebrated in that part
Of the country this year with unusual
heartiness, even with more zeal and en-
thusiasm than many of the northern states
displayed. There was always something alb
surdly inconsistent about the observance of
independence Day in the slave-holding states
before the war. The very reading of the
declaration emphasized the violation of its
self evident truths, that all men were Great
ed equal and endowed with an s'inalienable
right to liberty And then during the peri
cd of reconstruction the celebration of the
anniversary naturally fell into the hands of
the blacks just as formerly it had been mo-
nopolized by the whites. OF late, this year
especially, the old interest of the whites has
become revived and the celebration of the
most glorious of national holidays seems to
have been as general in the South as in the
North. While this is perhaps as it should be
yet we cannot help asking if there is not still
an inconsistency something like the old
inconsistency that existed before the war
To be sure there are no longer slaves. But
that .inalienable right to liberty which is
read year after year at every Fourth of July
celebration includes right Of suffrage and
freedom of ballot, without shot gun inter

Mr.. j. l.. Meade, who was appointed post
master at Hazelhurst, Miss, and subsequent
ly removed because of thepart he took in the
Mathews tragedy, has written long letter
protesting against the Presidents treatment
of him and defending himself from the
charges made against HMM connection with
the murder of Mathews. Meade thinks the
President should have specified the charges
against him and given him an opportunity to
answer them. but as the President has given
nobody else such an opportunity there is no
reason why an exception should have been
made in Meade's case. Meade says his re-
moval is generally condemned by the people
of Copiah county, which is undoubtedly
true.
