think it useless in us poor mortals beseech-

made to believe that their ministers are on
ly ambassadors for the next presidential
election. For we see in their organ they
rather lean toward st. John, of Kansas, and
they preach to their audiences to leave off
whiskey, tobacco, and, in fact, all evil hab-
its, in order that the body may be sanctifed.

pose such rotten stuff coming in the midst OF

cause divisions and offences among you,

Remedy for Strikes"

It is generally admitted that some
thing ought to be done to relieve. or,
at least, mitigate the difficulty and
danger arising from the conflict be-
tween labor and capital. There should
be no conflict, and, ifjustice to all con-
cerned can be secured, there will be no
conflict. The public welfare demands
that something be done to meet this
growing menace. II we are capable OF
'sself government" let this live issue
be met, and let it be settled on the
eternal principle of right. One plan
that suggests itself to me is this: Let
the legislatures enact that when large
bodies of men 'strike" there shall be a
committee selected, one half by each
party, and let them select an efficient,
competent and disinterested person to
act with and assist them in settling
differences, with power to summons
witnesses-get all the information nee
essary, and, case of tie, cast the de-
cisive vote. Let this decision be final
and binding, unless good reason can be
shown for an appeal to the courts.
In case of such appeal let it be heard
and settled as in similar action or,lin-
arily. But enact, also, that while the
case is in the hands of said committee
or court, the status ante quo shall con-
tinue. and, it necessary, be enforced by
civil authority. This would obviate
the evil consequences of continued in
terruption. Thus public and private
interests would be conserved. Just
and uniform wages would be secured
to iaborers, and capital would be more
secure, while the public would have
some reliable guarantee against an
archy and business distraction. l be-
lieve in personal liberty" but it must
not be allowed to endanger the pros
perity and happiness of whole COM
munities. So, too, believe in the I'M
written law of competition. But let
it respect humanity.

''Call you this Democratic admin
istration? So far as fOur-fiths of the
office holders can make it so, it IS the
meanest and most time-serving Repub-
lican sort of dynasty" So writes an
esteemed and prominent Democratic
friend. We have no present certain,
consoling words to give, and only COM
mend to him that hope for better things
which should spring eternal in the
Democratic breast. The President is
an honest man, and we must believe
he will see his way clear to reflect the
will of the people long before his
term of office closes. And that will,
most assuredly, is to eject Republican
office-holders, and fill their places with
good, ld-fashioned Democrats.

most instantly. killed. Tho facts as
detailed by Johnny Weller. the
engineer, in his testimony before
the Coroner, and by the way one
of the most careful and efficient men
on the road is about as follows: "As
we rounded the very sharp curve
at Longstreth's, the man Tabner,
was discovered walking along the
side of tho track and going the
same direction of the train. When
the engine was in about twenty feet
of him, he suddenly stepped upon
the ends of the ties. The engine
was Immediately shut off and air
applied to the brakes, but the dis
tance was too short and he was
struck while the train WAS running
at the rate of twenty fivn miles an
hour. When the train backed up.
ho was found hanging across the
fence. Mr.. Tabner was then taken
up by the train men and brought
to this city, where he died u few
minutes after his arrival"
DR.. /. q. Wright, who WIS called
TO the depot by Coroner Gage made |
an examination Of the man. Thcre |
was a deep depression just below
and to the right of the left ear tha:
would have been sufficient to cause
death alone, and this by the way,
was about the only external mark
on the body of any. note. l: is sup
posed that he was struck on the
back of the head by tho flag staff of
the engine.
Tabner was discharged from the
