THE STRIKE ENDED.

Mr.. GOULD did the best Sabbath days
work of his life yesterday when he stepped
down from his eminence of stilted dignity
and acceded to Mr.. PowDERLY's reasona-
BILE proposition for an arbitration. If Mr..
GOULD had taken this sensible view of
things in the beginning Of the strike, it
would have been a good many thousand
dollars in his own pocket, and would
have saved the country a great deal
of apprehension, to say nothing of
losses to business interests in local
tiles affected by the strike. AS with
everybody else there are some things Mr..
GOULD has to learn by experience, and in
this instance the experience has cost him
very dear. 1t is to be hoped, however,
that it will prove valuable to him in the
future.
The country is to be congratulated that
the great strike is at last brought to a
termination. Another critical period in
our national history has been passed
and we breathe easier that it is over

on the road to permanent adjust
ment of the relations between labor and
capital and all business interests feel the
more secure for it. Another illustration
has been given that the strong common
sense of the mass of American citizens and
that principle of fairness and just dealing
which characterizes our people can be relied
on in every emergency to pull the nation
through the most trying ordeal. When a
man of JAY GOULD's dictatorial will and
autocratic power is compelled to yield to
the more conservative opinions of his
cOuntrymen it is the best evidence of the
strength and stability of our form of pop
ular government. The fact is demonstrated
that the people are the rulers and no one
man nor combination of men and interests
can ever be strong enough to over-rule the
popular will or set aside the popular judy
ment. VoX pOpuli vox Del.

PROFIT sHARING.

Judging from an article recently furnished
TO the Philadelphia Press we are inclined
10 the opinion that the Hon. STEPHEN b.
ELKINS is a more successful philosopher
than politician. Mr.. ELKINs discusses the
labor problem with more clearneSs, fairness
and practical sense than is usually the case
with those who are interested on the side
of capital. Himself a millionaire bank er
and with large investments in railway,
mining and manufacturing stock his views
are entitled to weight He says that the only
way to bring an end to the aptagonismS
between labor and capital is to perna-
nently unite the interests of employer and
employee, and to establish a system under
which their interests instead of being
diverse and different. may be made the
same and mutual. In order to do this will
require a complete reconstruction of our
industrial system. The difficulty with the
present system is that it is based on prin-
ciple that not only permits, but fosters con-
slant war between employer and en-
ploye. Through competition and other
causes the employer tries to get the
most labor he can for the least money,
to get the most money for the least labor.
Hence, Mr.. ELKINs argues, there will never
be any peace between the two until there is
a system adopted which will make their in
terests entirely mutual. This can only be
done by making them equally interested in
the profits, just as the New England Gran
tie works and the shoe manufacturers of
Auburn, Me-, have recently done. The
same system is already in practice in the
South, and is being adopted in the agricult-
ural pursuits of the West. In support of his
position Mr.. ELKINs cites the fact that at
the close of the war the Southern negro,
fresh from slavery without any lesson in
political economy, soon discovered that the
wage system brought him no return. and he
at once demanded an interest in the crops
his labor producted. The landowner, the
reasonable, but soon saw his way clear to
grant the demand and to take his former
bondsman into partnership. And to-day
the largest part of the agriculture
of the South is carried on under
this system of dividing the profit
There are no strikes because the interests of
both parties are the same and there is no
ground for discomfort. Thus it is that Mr..
ELKINs argues that the entire industrial
system of the country must be changed and
adapt itself to the principle which is work
ing so successfully between the white cap
italsts and the colored laborers of the
South-the principle of profit sharing.
Under such system antagonism will dis
appear because security will be substituted
for strife and charity will supplant selfish
ness.

HOIIER THAN TaOu.

The National Union league, in session at
Washington. is an ambitious organization.
If there is anything under the shining can
opy of political nature concerning which
it does not consider itself competent to
speak with convincing authority, patient
investigation has been unable to discover it.
To one idea it most tenaciously clings. 1t
can see no good in the Democratic
party, and no evil in the Republican
organizations. 1t sublimely ignores all the
errors. to speak mildly, which have been
committed under its auspices and calmly
claims all the credit for any good
achieved through Democratic efforts.
Its assertion of selt-righteousness is
sufficiently regardless of all truth
to be ridiculous. The single H.
lustration that it takes the Carrollton.

Gratis the very stale sermon about intimi-

kind of campaign connection.

MARRIAGE FRANCE.
Difficulties i'm the WayOf Poor Peo-
pie who Wish tn Wed.

pie who wish tn Wed.
Paris Letter in Chicago Times.
Marriage in France must be made less
difficult and less costly. The complex for
malities of wedlOck are safeguards for poor
and rich alike, but they are really barrier
for poor people. 1t seems simple TO furnish
the required papers, but it is an impOsSi-
bility for those who have but a vague idea
of their families and antecedentS. Some
do not even know who their parents were
or have lost all traces of them. In order to
marry they must produce the written con-
sent OF their parents or prove their death.
Then comes the question of money. OF
course the mayor is not paid. and the priest
will marry gratis all those who wish no eIab-
crate ceremony, but before the ceremony
come the eXpenceS.
The candidates for matrinony must nav
the copy of the birth Certificate, or paper
OF recognition, vOuched for by seven wit
neSses. They must pay for legaliZing the
the consent OF the parents or for a certificate
OF death. Ii orphans, they must pay for
legal advice. The judgment rendered, in
case ola dispenSation asked, for the mar
rlage of relatives must also be paid. Legal
publications of marriage also have their
tariff. The total is always too great sum
for the poor TO spend. and consequently
they do without marriage. This sad fact
has impressed prominent French lawyer
TO such an extent that he has founded a
charitable society. called st. Francois Regis
whose mission is TO facilitate the marriages
of the poor. The society is almost entirely
composed of magistrates. and pays attention
only 10 those who say: 1--WE wish to marry
we have neither time or money; look up
our papers. and pay for them" The Office
of this society is in the Latin quarter. and
its managers devote themselves the re-
searches. and the leycling Of all difficulties.
All natiOnalities. all religions are welcome.
The papers are found. the expenses paid.
ami when all is in order. the candidates for
matrimony receive their documents, a piece
OF gold, the wedding ring, blessed. little
advice, and a wish for prosperity. The
society IS positive that it has been the cause
of 10000 marriages among the poor of
Paris.

Only poor portrait painter.
In garnet high over the street.
Wearing n coat somewhat tattered
And shoes that scarce covered his feet.
But he toilei there from late until early,
And painted from early till late,
With always a smile for his easel
And never a railing ut fate.
Yet the fair curly hair grew too lengthy,
And the blue eyes all weary and dim,
And that fortune that smiled on the others
Had nothing but frowning for him,
Till one day there came TO his garnet
A vision in coiifeur and lace,
maiden all smiling aud cheery,
With the veries: love OF face.
She brought the sunshine in her manner,
And the day shC OF health I'm her cheek;
So the smiles al came back 10 the painter.
And his canvas began TO speak
In tone that the critics admired
And Il style that the connoisseurs sought;
So he woke on a sunshiny morning
To find that his paintings were bought.
And his name was known over the city,
And he looked at his easel with pride,
For the picture that glowcd on the canvas
Was the face of his beautiful bride.

MIR. STRAITS CROOKED BILL.

Congressman STRAIT has introduced a bill
in congress providing for the pensioning of
persons engaged in the railway mail serv-
ice. AS rule the railway mail agents are
nice set of people. but why they should
be selected out from all other employees of
the government and put on the pension
rolls is something that Mr.. STRAIT will have
to explain. If it is because of the peculiar
branch of government business he is en-
ployed in that the railway mail clerk is
entitled to a pension the same argu-
ment would apply to the post
masters and the army of postal
clerks throughout the country. If it
is because that his occupation involves some
risk of life, the same argument would apply
to the bod carrier who takes brick and NOR
tar to the top of some government building.
The railway mail clerk is usually very
nice man, he holds very nice position and
gets very nice salary. If he is not salts
fed with that, all he has to do is to step
down and out, and there are thousands of
equally nice young men who are willing to
step right into his place without any regard
to the pension contingent. If the railway
mail clerk wants pension, let him do just
as other business men have to do take out
life or accident policy in some reliable
insurance company. The government has
about as big burthen already in the way of
pensions as the people care to have it as
sumo. And if Congressman STRAIT wants
to serve his constituents, there are a thou
sand other things to which his attention can
be directed which will be of more benefit to
the public than hunting up new classes to
be added to the pension rolls.
