To Protect the Pe0nle.

& Governor Pattison's bold onslaught
against those organized conspiracies, the an
ohracite coal combination and trunk line
pol, which appears in another column,
win command wide attention everywhere,
- the manful act of chief executive who
is determined that the citizens of this state,
and not few soulless monopolists, shall
nhare in the vast wealth that Pennsylvania
annually produces.
1t has been an open secret for years that
this coal combination alluded to in Cover
nor Pattison' letter, increased or decreased
the coal output, in order to keep prices at a
6gure to suit themselves; and it has been
equally true that the trunk line pool was
established to maintain freight rates and
thus destroy healthy competition. The fact
that within the past two weeks two ad-
i vances have been made in the price of coal
and that no corresponding increase in the
wages of labor has followed, shows conclu-
sively that the organization is such a con-
spiracy as the laws of the state can step in
to prevent.
It ID emphatically a grievous wrong tina
this should be so, and for every wrong
there should be remedy. The supreme
court Of the state has already decided that
m action for criminal conspiracy will lie
against those who combine to oppress the
public, and this is one of the modes where
by the offending corporation may be brought
to terms. Or the pooling contract may be
knocked on the head by injunction or quo
scGrrdNto proceedings. In any of these
ways the sovereign power of the state may
be exercised to protect the people from cor
poration tyranny.
The action of the governor will be cor
daily endorsed by all right-thinking men.
Winter Is now coming on and raise in tie
price of coal means suffering for thousands
who find themselves even now just able to
keep the wolf from the door, Farmers and
- 6facturers will appreciate the effort of
the chief executive TO stop levying upon
local freights the sums lost on slaughter
ing competition on through freights and
labor will realize that its firm friend sits in
the executive chair at Harrisburg.

Mr.. Wallace Should BE Sent.

Mr.. Wallace returns from the West
while the congressional conference in his
district is debating him as candidate for
Congress. We see no reason for any such
prolonged consideration of the matter.
Two of the counties support Mr.. Wallace,
the old member, Mr.. Curtin, having with
drawn in his favor. Why he is not made
the nominee without hesitation is surpris-
ing to the Democratic sentiment outside
the district. Certainly he is the most
competent of the candidates to fill the
place, though they are all good men, any
ono OF whom would make an excellent
candidate. But Mr.. Wallace would be the
best candidate for the party, of which he
has long been known as chief leader. He
has been recognized as rival of Mr.. Ran.

IL, that the leadership of the Democratic
uuarty in Pennsylvania is not with either
Mr.. Randall or Mr.. Wallace, or with any
other one or two men. The party is too
active and restless to have any such con

abroad that there is Randall and Wal

rooted that it will probably stay until ont

SAYS Mr.. Labouchere, in reference to the
London subscription for the relief of Charles
ton The people of the United States are
quite rich enough to relieve the distress of
their own unfortunate fellow citizens who
have suffered from the earthquake" These
are surprising words from a man so clear
headed and liberal, minded as LsbOuchere,
and We wonder how he would like the gen.
eral adoption Of this principle. Great Britain
is rich enough to take care OF the poor peas
ants of ireland, but don't do it. Would
Lsbouchere recommend our casting the re-
sponsibility uIon the shoulders of the Eng
lish people to whom it IT. -htfuliy belongs His
thought is the thought OF the Pharisee in the
parable who gave the wounded traveller his
pity and passed 10y on the other side while the
''Samsritan" Americans give the Irish the
aid that is their due from the British nation.
True the aid comes chiefly from American
Irish, but there are many contributors in this
country who are not of Irish blood, and at
any rate that does not eNonerate the English
for their apathy while thousands of their
countrymen are starving at their doors.
"Charity begins at home" but If it stays
there it becomes seltishness. We have passed
the beginning in most rsspacts, but England
has not yet begun. The sum of human
misery is so great that charity can only hope
to relieve the worst and most easily reached
OF it, but when great cilamities like the
earthquake or the famine call for charity
good people the world over sh ould combine
