JUDGE BARRETT in New York recently
sentenced five boycotteTs to the peniten-
tiary for epforcinga q boycott against q
concert garden. The circumstances
were these, The proprietor Of the con-
cert garden engaged the services of a
n1Acian, who was not resident of
this country for six months prior to his
engagement. This was against the rule
of the musicians organization, and
they forthwith ordered o boycott, to
raise which the proprietor Of the garden
paid the executive CON mittee of the
musical society a thousand dollars.
When the money was paid, prosecution
followed for conspiracy, and, although
there we're extenuating circumstances
all were sentenced to the penltentlary
for an average period Of two and one
half years. No one denies the right of
labor to organize for all legitimate pur.
poseslwhatever they may be,6ut when by
compulsioD, intimidation or force, they
prevent employers from employing those
whose labor they desire, they transcend
their powers and weaken the position
they assume Of beneftting themselves
and labor In general. The benefit con.
felred by oIganized labor 10 not doubt.

To clip all the coupons from the Van
derbilt $50,000,000 bonds took an expert
clerk nearly five days. No man does 1t
twice. When the clerk was through he
was given weeks vacation and $50
bill extra. 1t is done every year, and 1t
seems to be the hardest task which the
Wander bilt fortune imposes. By.and-by
it will take two men, and ultimately
half dozen or more. To think, how
ever, that by far the larger part of was
made by watering stock and selling 1t
the same as real What any man wants
to accomplish the same thing Is the op-
portunity and no conscience.

TIE Republican editors of Ohio met
In convention at Columbus on Thursday
and passed stror & resolutions demand
Ing that tie United States Senate in
Vestigate Senator Payne's case. They
also issue an address reviewing the case.
These gentlemen ought to have some
power over Republican Senate. but it
Is very doubtful If they succeed In get
ting that body to investigate MIR. Payne.
The trouble is zoo many Of them know
how 1t is themselves. Republican lead

The Pittsburg Labor Tribune OF last
week gets off quite joke on the Young
Mems Republican club that went to
Harrisburg to the Republican State
Convention. The Tribune says: every
mothers son Of these gay young tariff
ties represented In his uniform as much
If not more duty on the imported goods
than cash value of the stuff at the place
Of manufacture. Fancy a tariff club
topped off by a French silk banner!
American silk isn't good enough for
this association Of young, very young,
political economists and btckefs Of the
American system of protection to home
industries. And each individual had on
his tariff -cTammed head a French hat
Of tie tall white order Of architecture,
and on his legs a pair Of trousers OF
French doe skin, and on his back
Prince Albert Of the same imported
material, and for vests the true Mar
seilles." The Tribune adds that such q
makeup was sufficient to cause Morri-
son, Carlisle & Co. to toss up their
beavers and howl with delight.

ONE Rutherford B. Hayes lifts himself
from the obscurity Of six years to
complain against President GIevelanPs
vetoes. The only veto which Mr.. Hayes,
at that time fraudulently occupying the
Presidential chair, attempted-that Of
the silver bill-was slapped in his face
with vigor that was really brutal.
Congress did not even 60 through the
customary forms. II seemed to be Its
desire to show to the fraudulent Presi-
dent how thoroughly every one In both
Houses desDised him. He Is q pretty
fellow to be peeping now against Mr..
Cleveland, when both the country and
the Congress are with the President.
The only good thing that Mr.. Hayes ever
did for This land was to keep quiet after
he went out of office. Why should he
grow weary Of this well-doing? -[En-

On Friday last testVOte was had on
one of the Presidents pension Vetoes,
the Republicans trying to pass the bill
Over the veto. The bill was referred to
the Pension Committee, yeas 122, nays
Ill. Mr.. Grosvenor, of Ohio, made a
flaming speech declaring the House
was paralyzed and terrified by the veto
Of single mana proposition In the
direction of absolute usurpatiOn, in the
direction Of turning from Its normal
position the Congress of the United
States and turning over the administra-
tiOn of the generosity of the Govern
ment to one man." He did not explain
how the clause came into the Constitu-
tion making 1t the imperative duty of
the President to return bill to Con-
gress that fails to meet his approval" T"
"He shall return It," General MatsOn,
Chairman of the Pension Committee, In
response to the gush Of the Ohio mem
Der, said a Republican Committee of the
FOrty-seventh Congress had reported
against the pension bill under consiI-
Grafton for the same reasons the Presi-
dent used in his veto message. This
was In the nature of damper.

tors being present. Mr.. Cleveland's
veto messages have broken up this sys-
tenn and Is Of itself strong tribute to
to the wisdom of his action. 80 num-
erous had these bills bscome as to afford
good grounds for the belief that ealA
and every claim rejected by the PensiO
Bureau found Its way into Congress-.

tiOn.
Republicans fearIthat the Presidents
messages returning bills will make the
Senate appear absurd to the people. The
President, in stating his reasons for
vetoing the bills has stated the truth,
and so has offended. He stated as Q
reason for vetoiDg pension bill, that
the heroic soldier to VIII n
was granted had been dead and mould
erIng In his grave for upward Of eight
years, and 1t was not the fault of the
President that Congress was made to
appear ridlculousl before the whole
country. 1t was the truth that made
them look so. That was.only one case,
an aggravated one; but 1t was not much
worse than many others. One case has
been discussed In which the Presidents
objections have been shown unfOundsd
by after discovered testimony, and we
believe that Is the only one in which
"pOint" has been made agails. his free

policy of employers, or to prevent other

VALUE OF IMMIGRATION.

The New York Board Of State Charities
has called out Commissioner Ulrich OF
the Board of immigration Of the port OF
New York, In which he replies to some
statements Of the Charities gentlemen
who are alarmed at the large stream of
foreign arrivals. Mr.. Ulrich proves con-
cluslVely that 1t Is this steady and in
creaslng tide Of immigration which has
built up the wealth and population of
the country TO Its present level, while
the statement made by the Board of
State Charities that the majority of i'm
migrants are paupers is shown to be
most reckless and prepOsterous one
During the past FIVE years and half"
says Mr.. UlTicb, "the arrivals at Castle
Garden have been over 100000, number
returned during the same period about
COCO; these immigrants brought with
them not less than $l50,000,000; they
paid for inland transportation about
$40O00O00; the duty collection at Castle
garden for 1882 (Which are the only
years for which l can give the amount)
was about $4,000. The productive
value of a man Is estimated 10 be 81, 900;
multiply this by 100000, add it to the
other sums given, and you will approx
mately arrive at the sum Of this pauper
food"
The rapid growth in prosperity and
the development of the West during the
past quarter Of century has been one
of the direct results of the acCessions to
our population from the foreign sources.
We may have gained some undesirable
citizens only because we are compelled
to take had with the good,

newark. N. j.. January 2.--Fhis ais
ternoon fire was discovered tn the east
erly front wing OF the insane asylum,
situated two miles from the city. The
flames shot up the chute to the attic, and
in few minutes it was seething mass
of flames. The wing was six hundred
feet long, and as the interior fittings were
Of oiled pine they ignited very readily
and burned fiercely. In this wing were
lO3 patients. The Medical Superintend-
ent Immediately summoned his staff Of
assistants, and in a few minutes all the
unfortunates were mustered into the yard
without accident OF the epatients taken
out 32 were women and II men. Very
little difficulty was experienced in con
trolling them. The entire fire depart
ment was summoned to the scene. but
could render little service, owing to the
scarcity of water. The flames spread
rapidly to the third floor and the entire
length Of the wing in both directions
AT the wet end Il was stopped by a
blank wall 2e inches thick, which
prevented its spread to the center and
other wings Of the institution. By hard
work the firemen kept the flames to the
two floors, although all the floors were
badly damaged by water. The loss is
probably $4,000. fully insured. The
patients were sent temporarily to the
City Hospital, but were this evening re-
turned to the asylum, where arrange
ments are made for their accommoda-
tion. The cause OF the fire is unknown,
but is supposed to have originated from
steam pipes which surround the chute
in the basement which, like all the rest
of the interior fittings, was OF the most
infammable material The asylum is
new building and was erected at cost
of $3.50, 200. 1t was first occupied last
spring and has nearly 800 inmates.

Yesterday Deputy Constable Huber
was on Main street, near Wells, Fargo
4 Co.'S office, when boy came and
told him he was wanted to arrest q
crazy man on Lazard street, at the
house of Mrs. Roos. Arriving there he
found that this lady had employed Geo.
Horn, a plasterer, to do some repairing
in her house. Imagine her cohsterns-
ton to find the man mad as March
hare. When the officer reached the
place Horn shut himself up in the par
lor. Huber opened the door and
lo no mailman was there. Mrs.
Roos told him to look in closet. This
was easily said, but very hard to do.
When after more than one attempt and
great effort he got the door open the
madman sprang at his throat like wild
beast. and down the two went together.
Huber's first thought was large revolv-
er in a porch by his hip. 1t would be
terrible should the maniac get this. In
trying to conceal the weapon the officer
was at disadvantage. and Horn turned
him over and eiimDed on top. 1t took
four Inen to get his grip off the per
son OF the officer, whose clothes he
had torn in shreds. It was terrible
struggle against the wild force Of
madman, and few would care to be in
the place of Huber for the short space
Of time while help was being sought for.
Horn is only l40 pounds in weight and
80 years old, but the strength of mad
ness is terrific. The man has been in
the Stockton Asylum once before, and
has been out only short time.
Huber says seriously this is the last
time he tackles crazy man alone. 1t
is a Horn Of dilemma he does not care
again TO be impaled ON.

"HOw DID HE DIE7o
The New York ssSsar,s - story of
VanderbfItss Death.

NEW YoRK, January 2.--The Star
prints a long story headed, "How Did
Vanderbilt Dief' The gist Of IL is this
Garrett called on Vanderbilt because he
had heard that President Green, Of the
Western Union, was seeking, under con-
tract with the New York Central, to
take from the Baltimore & Ohio the priv
ilege Of working wires on the West Shore
road. The interview lasted an hour and
half. Vanderbilt, Il is averred, rejected
all CARROTS proposals looking to settle
ment satisfactory to the Baltimore &
Ohis. As Garrett naturally became more
earnest and indignant, Vanderbilt grew
more and more excited and angry. At
last the elimination was reached. A
few broken, inarticulate words were
blurted out, the massive form
lurched forward from the chair,
and William II. Vanderbilt fell
PROSTATE. senseless and dying, stricken
down with apoplexy. The Star says
DIR. Green admits that the Western
Union was seeking control Of the West
Shore wires. and Mr.. DePew admits
that Gerret told him the matter was the
subject of conversation when Vanderbilt
fell. DR.. James W McLane, who had
been VanderbiIt's physician for five
years before his death, considers the
fatal event almost in the light OF trag-
edy. He says there wsrs no indications
OF paralysis or apoplexy about his
patient. The Star follows up its Van
derbilt story with more surmises, theo-
ries and facts. DePew, however, in the
Tribune, says that Vanderbilt and Gar
rett could not have known of the Cen
trails notice about the West Shore lines,
snd therefore could not have disputed
about it.
