STRIKES AND THEIR PHASES.

Strikes, like other processes of agita-
tion, seem to be contagious 1t is GER
,ainly the case when strike of any
importance is successful. No doubt
the fact that nearly all the workingmen
of the country are banded together in
one organization has good deal to do
with movements which are spreading
in concentric circles, but even if there
were no such organization the work
ingmen Of one class world naturally
adopt the modes and methods Of another
class which had proved successful in
securing the recognition of certain de-
mands.
In the leading strikes there is one
central idea--thc betterment of the
condition of the men who are the com
plainants At the same time there are
different phases prescribed in each
separate case The New York street
car employees demanded less hours rs q
days work and better pay for days
work. Theirs was n great demonstru-
tion, conducted within the limits of
good order. and the strikers practically y
got what they asked.
Now comes the demand of some of
the men on the Gould system of rail-
roads. Here we find another differ
ence beneath the dominant cause. The
demand is that contract once entered
into as TO the employment and dis.
charge of man shall be adhered to.
The strikers do not ask any advance in
wages or better hours. As the motto
of the Knights of Labor is Fan injury
to one is the concern of ALL" the
present demand upon the Gould rail
roads OF portion of its employees, will
be supported by that organization, and
If an amicable adjustment is not
reached, there will be general strike
on the entire system.
Then, again, ten thousand miners in
Pennsylvania may strike to-day If they
do not secure an advance of wages
sufficient to allow them to afford them
the means of subsistence. They do
not want less hours of work or touch
on the subject of contracts. They
want ten per cent. advance on the price
of digging coal.
There are also mining troubles down

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Course that Wins.

EDITOR CRITIC: | have had frequent oc-
casion to commend and admire the bold
and manly course of THE CRITIC, especially
in relation to our local affairs. But never
has it won so much OF my admiration and
l may say, my gratitude-ns 1t did in the
the position which 1t has taken with regard
to the Presidential outrage perpctrated
upon the helpless people Of this city by the
appointment of Matthews Us Recorder of
Deeds; and when contrasted the prompt,
decided and independent protest against
this great wrong with the timid and hest
tating utterances Of some other papers that
have grown fat upon the money Of the peo-
pie of this city, could not resist the de-
sire of expressing through your columns
my appreciation of the course Of THE
CRITIC at the same time indulging In the
hope that the citizens of Washington will
not fail to remember who was their "friend

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

Says Major Ben: Perley Poore in his
"Rocollections;" Mrs. Hayes cx.
erted greater influence over public
affairs than any lady had since Dolly
Madison presided over the White
House. Tall, robust, and with dig
niied figure, the whole expression of
her face, from the broad forehead,
which showed below her hair, worn in
the old-fashioned style, to the firm
mouth and modest chin, bespoke the
thoughtful, well-balanced, matronly
woman. Notwithstanding the protest
of Secretary Evarts and Of Washington
society, wines were banishcd from the
State dinners, although the guests who
were known to the steward, received,
midway in the rcpast n glass of Roman
punch, which was nearly all potent
Saint CroiX rum. Such was its invig-
Grating effect that it was named the
life saving station While Mrs. Grant
had always denounced the White
House as not suitable for Presidents
! residence. Mrs. Hayes was charmed
withit, She once took an old friend
through II, showed him the rooms and
exclaimed: No matter what they
build they will never build any more
rooms like these. She had the lum-
Der rooms ransackcd and old china and
furniture renovated, asccrtaining,
when possible, its history. Every even,
ing after dinner she had IN informal
reception, friends dropping in and
leaving at their will, and enjoying her
pleasant conversation. Even the
women spoke well of her and some
llattered her."
Referring to the "'Ostler Joe" cpl
sope in this city. John II. Reavis of the
New York Wor!d says 1t may be
mentioned as fact that Mrs. Potter Is
not to be held entirely responsible for
the selection of the poem. / have it
on the best authority that Secretary
Endicott, Mrs. Endicott and Secretary
Whitney having heard her read cost

should give it, and that she consented
to do so with not one misgiving that
she was doing violence to good taste
or good morals. 1t must be admitted
that she might have chosen more ap.
propriate selection, so far rs the story
Is concerned, but there Is not one line
or sentence or syllable in the poem to
which the most fastidious could object,

THE LIGHT THAT IS FELT.

A tender child Of summers three,
Seeking her little bed ut night,
Paused on the dark stairs timidly,
"Oh, Mother take my hand,n said she,
And then the dark will all be light
We older children grope our way
From dark behind 10 dark before;
And only when our hands we lay,
Dear Lord, in Thine, the night IL day.
And there Is darkness nevermore.
Reach downward 10 the sunless days,
Wherein our guides are blind as W.,
And faith is small and hope delays,
Take Thou the hands of prayer we raise,
And let US feel the light of Thee.

The True Meaning OF "Pion-Pion."

in child-French, is the name OF q small toy,

a bit OF lead on one end. These bits Of
loaded pith are most frequently painted In
