THE Cowia-JoTnaL puts the matter in
a nutshell: Men have right to refuse

body of strikers has any right to interfere
with another who is willing to work when

distinction is lost sight of, the moment
any body of men destroy property or take

THE rioting in the disturbed districts at
the East must, of course, be put down. If
the labor organizations eondone or pro-
mote it, they are suicidal. The laws will
be maintained, and no possible excuse,
short of actual revolution, is tolerable for
the assault upon them. AS the New York
Star puts it: "The people of this country
have no sympathy with rebellion, insur-
rection or riot, no matter by whom insti-
gated or in what cause it may arise. In a
land in which the majority make the laws
there are no wrongs so great as to afford a
pretext or excuse for mob violence"

THE ARBITRATION BILL.

We have said that so-called enforced
arbitration is no arbitration, for the
reason that the very word implies consent
to the submission. This is perfectly clear.
Any law, therefore, that compels one to
come into tribunal to be adjudged reIa-
tive to the wage he pays, or the hours he
works his employees, is but law setting up
new Court, according to system that
involves destruction of the bill of rights
that secures Americans all they have.
The attempt to establish enforced arbitra-
ton is simply absurd, because, as the New
York Tribune recently put it: " If employ
ers are 20 be compelled by any legal re-
strain:s to abide by the result of an arb-
tration, it is a necessary corollary that the
workmen should be in the same measure
compelled. No one will seriously favor a
law requiring one party to obey the decis-
ion of tribunal, but leaving the other
party free to refuse. Then the question
arises whether men whose work is value
less if not willing can he forced to do will
ing work. The difficulty is about as great
on the employers side. No law can prac-
tically compel him to keep mills or facto-
ries in operation, or to ruin more trains on
a railroad than just enough to save its
franchise" The bill that has passed the
House of Representatives itself recognizes
that consent is an essential to arbitration,
and for that very reason is not likely to be
acceptable to the workingmen who asked
for law. Nearly all the States now have
statutes for arbitration and for making
legal arbitrations binding, and the equiva-
lent of judgments of Courts. The Congress
sional Act cannot, therefore. greatly help
the workingmen, and certainly will not
give greater confidence to capital. Even
Mr.. Warner, of Missouri, its most ardent
supporter, in closing his speech on the 1st
inst, said:
would encourage the settlement of all cues
tons affecting the rights of labor as well as
those of the employer, by arbitration rather
than by the force of mere numbers the police
man club or the bayonet of the soldierv !
an not as sangrline as some as TO the benefits to
be obtained from this measure yet believe its
influence viii be on the side of Justice and
peace,

ga DARK HORSE"

How the Expression First Found Its Way
Into Use.
Bystander in Philadelphia News.
You have all heard the expression "a dark
horse" time and again, but doubt If many Of
you, except by inference know it's full meaning
The expression originated in this way: Many
years before the war there was a cunning jockey
in Tennessee who owned q black horse that
was remarkably fast and extremely illfavored
In looks To better enable him to enter him in
good things, he hitched him to q
wagon and peddled from town to town
where country races were run. In this way he
picked up many dollar. One day he was en-
tered in race in which local horse was great
favorte and was heavily backed to win. A Col
Throckmorton came on the ground just before
the horses were started, and a friend gave him
"a sure pointer" on the favorite. The Colonels
business required him to travel good DEAL and
on more than one occasion he had seen the ped
dler's black horse outfoot field OF good ones
AS he ran his eye over the truck" he recognized
him in 1t, and he responded: Your tip amt
worth shucks. There's dark horse in that lot
who can distance a streak of creased lightning.
You keep your eyes on him. and see him travel"
just then the start was made. The race was a
dash of a mile, and the dark horse kept away
back until the three.quarter pole was passed
Then his rider gave him his head. pricked his
TANKS with the gaffs, when he came away from
the lot, TO use the language of an eyewitness.
as though they were standing still"
Now you see that "a dark horse" is ever to bs
dreaded.

The polonaise will remain in vogue, being ap-
piled to tailor made as we'll as to other costumes
Black satin for the foundation OF black lace
dresses will be in high favor during the coming

The closer their resemblance to mems goods
the more fashionable are the cheviots and

smooth French felts; also fuzzy felts to be worn
en- suite. with shaggy tailor made cloth cos
tunes.
French cashmere remains 10 favor for house
dresses, and there is a large importation OF al!
the standard favorite colors with number OF
new tints.
Present indications denote that the hitherto
popular jersey is to receive new lease Of life.
Those for the coming season are OF finer quality
and of more elaborate design than formerly.

cockade ends, but laid OF fat as braids are used.
