The Labor Question.

In the Forum, a new magazine OF much
merit and promise, Andrew Carnegie discusses
the Labor Question from an employer view.
After hurried sketch, or rather recital, OF
the conflicts between labor and capital for
the past three hundred years, and notice OF
the laws for the amelioration OF the condition
of the working classes, he comes down to the
present, and observes that strike or lockout
is. in itself, a ridiculous affair, and as fail
ure or success gives no proof of It's justice or
Injustice. 1t is simply a question OF endur-
ance, he continues, between the contestants.
and does not establish what is just and fair
anv more than does duel or the gage OF
battle.
In view of the continual conflict between
EMPLOYERS and employees, there have been
suggested among other expedients the idea OF
cooperation. Mr.. Carnegie discusses this,
and concludes that the plan is not feasible,
believing that cooperative establishments
could not compete with those controlled and
manged by trained men of affairs.
The next SUGGESTIONS arbitration, and this,
Mr.. Carnegie believes, is the proper solution.
In his article he deals only with the labor
ouestiop as it affects mills, mines and manu-
factories, and his suggestions appear to be
based on a full comprehension of the subject,
on common sense, justice and fairness. lie
would have sliding scale of prices-pnces
based on the market value of the products,
wages going up or down as the products ad-
vance or decline. Next, proper organza-
ton of the men of every works, by which the
natural leaders, the best men, would event
ually come to the front, and have frequent and
free interviews with the employers. Next,
peaceful arbitration, without interruption OF
work, by disinterested persons, where differ
ences occur between the representatives OF the
employees and the employers, and the decision
of the arbritrators to be final and to take eff
feet ON the date of reference. If these meas
ures were adopted by an establishment, says
Mr.. Carnegie, several important advantages
would be gained
First. the employer and employed would
simultaneously share their prosperity or ad-
yersity with each other. The scale once set
tied, the feeling of antagonism would be gone,
and feeling of mutuality would ensue. Cap
ital and labor would be shoulder to shoulder
supporting each other
Second, there could be neither strike nor
lockout, since both parties had agreed to
abide by forthcoming decision of disputed
points. knowing that in the last resort
strangers were to be called in to decide what
should be family affair, the cases would,
indeed, be few which would not be amicably
adjusted by the original parties, without call
ing in others to judge between them.

Prescription for Popular commotion

|
In paper contributed TO the T'dttler, by
the great wit and essayist, Joseph Addison,
in a time ofhigh party excitement in England,
he took occasion to speak of the virtue of
abstinence and its great value to the animal
economy, saying his own prescription was to
take nothing for ordinary ills, adding Were
the Body Polite to be physiced like particu-
lar persons, / should venture to prescribe
for it in the same manner-take nothing. 1t
may be thought absurd to prescribe diet for
allaying popular commotion. But | am per-
suaded that if i'll such case whole people
were to enter into course of Abstinence, and
eat nothing bat scater- Cruel for fortnight, it
would abate the rage and animosity of par
ties. Such fast would have natural ten
dency to the procuring of those ends for which
fast is usually proclaimed. If any man has
a mind to enter on such q voluntary absti-
nence, it might not be improper to give him
the caution of Pythagoras in particular:
AbStine a Fabis-'Abstain from Beans
That is, say the interpreters, "Meddle not
with Elections '-Beans having been made
use OF by the voters among the Athenians in
the choice of magistrates
We, here in republican America, have
found out more excellent way than the
use of beans in the conduct of elections,
that is, ballots. We would not counsel alb
stincnce from ballots in the approaching mu-
nicipal election, but we are not certain that
Addison's prescription of mater cruel, for a
fortnight beforehand, would not be a good
thing for such of our citizens as are unduly
excited over the coming municipal election in
May. Besides, as this is the season of Lent,
abstinence might be beneficial, morally, ply
'ically and politically.

Withholding, by order of the President, GER
tain papers and letters in relation to removed

clared it to be the duty of the Senate to re-

The trial of r. Butler Malone, son of SEN
ator Malone, for assault with intent to kill in
shooting John Willis, waiter at Welker' s
restaurant, took place on Monday at Wash.
ington. District Attorney Worthington and
Assistant District Attorney Taggert appeared
for the prosecution, and Hon. John A. Wise
and Col. George D. Corkhill for the defense.
The testimony of John Willis and other wit
nesses of the shooting was submitted. Willis
testified that on the 18th of February OF last
wear Malone was drunk at Welker's. Wit
ness, after some trouble, carried him up to
his room, but Malone came back again and
shot at him three times. One of. the shots
went through the coat of witness, but he was
not injured Malone said, Il fired at the
niger three times, and ! don't understand
why / did not kill him." Other witnesses
corroborated this statement, and then the
defense called Hon. John S. Wise and Hon.
]. d. Brady, who testified that liquor made
Malone crazy, but that when sober he was
quiet and kindly in disposition. The District
Attorney was willing to leave to the jury the
question whether Malone was too drunk on
the occasion to form an intent, but Judge
Macarthur interviewed and told the jury that
a verdict of simple assault would satisfy the
law, and under his instructions such verdict
was rendered Judge Macarthur, after lee
turing Malone upon the improperly OF his
conduct, hoped the trouble he had caused in
this case would warn him never to taste liquoe
again. He then sentenced him to pay fine
