The remarks of Senator Sherman in the
debate of Monday, define very clearly the
position of the Senate in relation to the
subject of demanding of the President the
causes for removals which he has made.
The Senate does not propose to compel
the President to furnish to it the reasons
for the removals which he has made. but
it claims and asserts that the Senate has
perfect right to demand and to know and
have this information, and that the Presi-
dent, if he refuses it. denies that which he
has no right to deny though he may exer-
else the power to do so.
If the President persists in maintaining
the attitude which he has assumed, he
will be guilty OF denying to the Senate an
important right necessary to the full I'M
Outstanding of the causes OF removals by
the President, and of leaving the persons
removed under the stigma of having been
turned out of office tor some dereliction of
duty. He flouts the Senate in the face.
and does gross injustice to hundreds OF
worthy men whom he has removed. And
why? Because he dares not give the in
formation desired by the Senate lest it

Labor Troubles.

The labor troubles with which the world
is afflicted at the present time have grown
very largely from the depressed condition
of business the past year. Dull business
makes poor labor market. Employers
shorten work and pinch in wages when
there is no profit in carrying on business.
The lessening of work and wages reduces
to destitut;on the workman, and naturally
he seeks relief as best he can.
The great riot in London on Monday is
one of the most startling events of the Ia
Dor troubles. 1t is noticeable in the ac-
count received by cable that the real work.
ing men who participated in the mob did
80 reluctantly and took but little if any
part in the outrages which were commit
ted. The socialist agitators fired the ele-
ments of disorder with their incendiary
speeches. creating an excitement and fury
which the police. were unable to quell.
This is by no means the first time that Lon
don has suffered the scourging of mob.
1t is probable that order has been or will
soon be restored and that the government
will give the serious attention to the stu
alton which it demands.
In the same columns with the account
of the London mob comes the account of
the disturbance at Seattle, Washington
Territory, with the Chinese. The work.
ipgmen of the Pacific coast appear to be
determined that the Chinese must go"
from this country. Hence the late riot, and
the expelling of the Chinese by force and
in defiance of law and the constituted au-
thorities. 1t is a lamentable condition
of things.
Labor troubles continue in other States,
but the most of them are conducted by
peaceful methods with view to find some
middle ground upon which disputes may
be arranged and settled between the en-
ployer and the employees much better
way than to resort to violence and law
lessness.
