ROYCOTT TILE ROYCOTT

The boycott was judicially decided misde
meanOr under the laws of New York on Thurs
day. Here "A conspiracy to injure the business
of another is expressly forbidden, and punished
by crime or Imprisonment. The revelation
amazed many honest wOrkngmen who had not
realized that they were breaking the laws in
sustaining the orders of their trades unions.
But the laws stand, and ought to be Obeyed, for
they are just. E. cry citizen has his right in
this country to the protection of law in his
peaceful industry. Conspiracy TO deprive him
of work, or to break down his business. ought
to be a crime, and honest laborers ought to be
the very first to punish that crime.
In some other quarters there is talk of
vigilance committees. But w-breaking to
prevent w-breaking has no excuse in this
case. If men want to organize, and tn do some
thing practical Tor the defence of individual
freedom, let them unite to raise a fund for the
employment Of competent attorneys and de-
tectives, so that proofs can be secured against
every boycott. and those " BIO take part in it can
be- prosecuted and punished. Most persons
who are threatened in this fashion do not feel
that they are really much hurt by the gratuitous
advertising of their business and at all events
courts about It, But the matter ia one of pub
lie rather than private duty. This foreign
practice ought to be driven from American soil
for the public good because it is hostile to
American institutions. 1t is the interest Of all
good citizeps whether laborers or employers,
To boycott the boycott.
In some States the laws may be found made
quate for the punishment of this foreign in
trudcr. There proper laws should be enacted,
making it crime TO conspire for the purpose of
depriving any citizen of his freedom or destroy
ing his business. Ii Legislature refuses to
enact such laws, let the fact become known that
in such State American freedom does not yet
exist. In some localities judges or other local
officers may refuse to enforce the law. There
different officers should be chosen, and If that
cannot yet he done let the fact DO known that
American freedom does not there exist. This
foreign creature. the boycott, has no business
here, and is public nuisance. Let it be forced
to take ship and depart 10 despotic lands
where it belongs

A DhPLORABLE ERROR.

The mistake of the present Third Avenue
strike is greatly to be regretted. The street.
car employees had the sympathy and good will
of practically everybody in New-York. We
all wanted them to get shorter hours and
better wages When they struck for these
we all overlooked the injustice of the "tie-up"
on roads not involved IN the dispute, and when
they won everybody was delighted. But they
ought to have known when they were well off.
The present strike starts on complaint that
erybOdy laughs at. Here 1t Is:
We, a committee duly appointed by the Empire Pro-
tectvc Association make the following demands: That
the following conductors and drivers, namely, Frank
Bradley, Charles Harrington. John Reid. Michael Kelly
and william Griffin all drivers. and William Bsrdwe'l
and Charles James, conductors be discharged from the
Of the company for me following reasons The
drivers for using antagoni.c and insulting language
trying break up the Knights OF Labor In general
and they further say the Kn.hs Of Labor are not
fit to associate with them Mr.. Bardwe for saying that
he would take In case OF strike ana 'ho ROAD
was tied up James for giving away the secrets
of the association parties outside OF the organizaton
Now. afler all, il is the intention Of the major
ity of the people here that this shall be a Tree
country. If Frank Bradley says the Knights OF
Labor are not fit to associate with him, he has
the right to say it. and while they number
three hundred to his one In the force on the
road, they ought to be able to bear up under his
remark.
When it was struggle for better wages and
shorter hours the car drivers had all New Y DIRK
on their side. On an issue like this they make
themselves ridiculous. We earnestly hope that
the wiser heads among them may see some way
to rescne them from this absurd position at
| once community Of q million souls should
not be deprived of its ordinary conveniences,
because Frank Bradley thinks i'll of the knights
of Labor, and, supposing this to be free
country, says SO. If the Third Avenue Kali

him, it would have incurred and received uni-
yersal contempt

within bounds will be evident from pernsa'
of the dispatch repoi ting his address. Inc

whether this sum is to be in addition TO the
flsO. 900, 900 new per cents already author
lied or to be included in that issue Is not
entirely cleaI. The House interpreted IL
apparently to mean an additional burden.
This money would be used by the State author

been fixed, a Land Commission would decide
This scheme, Mr.. Gladstone believed, would
save England over 100000 a year. Mr..
Chamberlain objected that Ireland might repu'
date the obligation, and that the landlords
might then make run on England LOT the

upon the Commons. which was natural enough,
since it appealed to their pockets as taxpayers

IN EANITE REPIY.

Secretary Bayard is now giving personal at
teutiGn to inquiries from American citizens re-
speeding maritime and commercial rights. One
of the Assistant Secretaries having demon
strated that the Department did not know its
own mind by sending two contradictory dis
patches in one day to Captain Wnitton, it be-
can 6 necessary for the chief Secretary To take
charge of the correspondence and to accept full
responsibility for tie official answers. The fol.
lowing dispatches appear in The Boston
Irapetter:
To M lion. Secretary Of State, Washington. d. CT
Having several fishing vessels ready for the Banks,
we desire they enter CaDad ports for
men aud be protected in so dong.
Portland, April ., 1856. CUSHING d McKESsEY.
10 CUSHING McKESSEr, Portland, He!
The question CT the right OF American vessels engaged
In fishing the hgn seas, or entering the Canadian
ports Tor the purpose OF shipping crews, possibly
involve construction Of treaty with Great Britain ex
pect 10 attain understanding Will relieve
fishermen from all dou risk, ia the exercise OF the
Ordinary commercial privileges, IN friendly ports, to
which, under existing la OF botn countries consider
their citizens mutually entitled free from nolesta
tons. i. r. BAiARD.
Washington. d. o. April 9, 1886.
The Secretary's answer III one respect is salts
factory. 1t shows that the Department has
either discovered OF been informed (the second
Assistant Secretaly's letter referred vaguely 10
outside sources of infOrmation) that there are
ordinary commercial privileges which American
fshernen enjoy In Canadian ports indepen
IDENTITY of the Treaty of 1918. This marks a
decided advance from the state of Ignorance
and Incompetence disclosed In the replies to
Captain WhittOn. But while the Secretary
serts his belief that under existing laws Ameri
can citizens should be free from mOlestatiOn in
the exercise of those commercial privileges, he
does not authorize the Maine fishermen To act
anon that belief. lie evades IA direct answer TO
the simple question submitted to the State De-
partmeut and shirks the responsibility of de-
Gliding very plain matter of international law.
He hopes to effect IAN understanding" by
which our fishermen may be relieved from
doubt and risk, but does not venture TO tell the
Portland firm TO 20 ahead aud the Government
will support them in their rights under existing
laws. In consequence of the SecretaIy's indie
cision and vacillation, Messrs. Gushing & Nc
Kenney telegraphed for the men to JOIN their
vessels at Portland and paid a transportation
bill OF 500.
If the Secretary really believes that American
fishermen are entitled to ordinary commercial
privileges in friendly ports, why does he not
speak with frmness and authority Has
American diplomacy reached 80 low level Us
to have recourse to special negotiations and
proposals for lew treaties whenever existing
laws are To be enforcedi We fail 10 perceive
the need of any understanding with either
Great Britain or tho Provincial authorities, If
the maritime rights of our vessels are estab'
lished under British and American statutes.
