FURIOUS WORDS-AND 4 CRIME BEHIND
THEM

The rhetoric of the rebel knights Of Labor is
as lurd as the flash of their murderOus rifles,
bv which officers of law were Shot down in the
discharge of their duty at Fort Worth. Men
who are conscious of just cause do not tear
passion to tatters in stating their case. All this
fire and fury has no other object than to conceal
two vital facts. The Knights OF Labor began
strike, according to leaders Of their own ORDER
in violation of its solemn agreement and in de-
farce of its principles. They rebelled against
the authority of their own order in continuing
it after they were directed to return to work,
and they rebel against the laws of the land in
refusing to prevent crimes by their own num-
her. prompted by the desire to make the strike
successful.
There are many good citizens who sympathzc
strongly with all worthy efforts of wOrklngmen
to improve their condition, but are now IN
doubt, because they do not know how far the
organization of workingmen is responsible Tor
infamous crimes which such citizens condemn
uureservedly. There is a simple test which can
be applied in every case. Does the organization
prevent these crimesq Its power to control its
men has been proved every day since the strike
began. When a strike was carried through to
the end by the locomotive engineers year
ago. not a man in the cOmpany's employ was
harmed, and its property was guarded, not only
against reckless strikers, but even against mis-
chicf-makers or thieves outside the controversy.
When an organization can do this, and does 1t
not, it is absolutely responsible for the things
which it permits ms tead.
There are the rights of all laboring men to be
considered, moreover. Are these labor organi-
cations ready to support law providing that
all men who desire to work, but have been
threatened or assaulted and thus prevented,
NAV prove the facts before an impartial tri-
bunal, and thereupon recover from the orGani-
zation. or from each member of it, the sum
which would have been earned in six months or
a year if work in peace had been permitted II
the organizations are not willing to meet that
test. what is it they desire Is 1t opportunity
to rule by force or lawless violence over the
labor of fellow workingmen That is crime
the most dangerous crime that can be COM
mitted against free labor. If any body OF
strikers does not in point of fact suppress and
prevent that crime, when a strike is in progress,
1t proves that it is not the friend but the most
dangerous foe of the cause of labor.

FOJJOWING MALONE.

Governor Fitzhugh Lee seems to be man
of sentiment and credulty. For years Virginia
has been fighting her own legislation for funding
the public debt. Finally a measure was passed
which, if not entirely satisfactory to her
creditors, did at least give some hope of peace.
The old bonds were to be funded by new
coupon bonds, and in return for that portion OF
the debt that was to be utterly repudlated the
coupons were made receivable for taxes. But
the Malone Government afterward decided TO
repudiate the coupons, thus striking at the
validity of the new bonds. The constitutions
atty of this legislation was tested IN all the
courts, the United States Supreme Court hnally
deciding that the State must keep to It's bargain
and receive the coupons, and Malone wac
turned out of Office on this issue.
The creditors of the State naturally supposed
that Governor Lee would sustain the States

cONUNDRTu FOR MIR. CURTIS.

The Editor of Harper's Weekly is, perhaps, TO
be regarded as the leading Mugwump or the
country At all events, he IL distinguished
Mugwumn. whose views touching the true in
wardness of Mugwumpery are, of course, en-
titled TO be regarded as those of an expert. In
late issue: of Harper's Weekly Mr.. Curtis, in
answer to the charge that Mugwumpery aims
Mt government without party, expressed him.
self this way:
This assertion is convenient classification for the
n,rno.es OF machine politicians II any honest man
IA deluded Ivy tnem We bog him that In our
opinion az maintained in this journal for many year.
inaependenee aims simply at honest and decent gov
eminent by ptrty. .
Now. il is not "a convenient Justification"
but the sober truth, to assert that Mr.. Curtis Is
mistaken. His own record as Mugwump
contradicts his explanation OF the aim OF Mug
wumpery. The Mugwumpery OF Mr.. Curtis Is
not Mugwumpery that looks to government
by party.
Directly before Grover Cleveland was nOml-
mated for the Presidency by the Democratic
party Mr.. Curtis expressed his matured estimate
of that party Oh the floor Of the Republican
National Convention. The Indictment OF the
Democracy which he then drew up contained
these counts
We are confronted with the Democratic party, very
hungry and, as you may well believe, very thirsty q
party without single definite principle. party with
out any distinct National policy which It dares to pre-
sent to tho country aparty which fell from power ss
against human rights. and now attempts to
sneak back to power as conspiracy for plumber and
spoils.
1t will not be pretended that in supporting
Mr.. Cleveland for the Presidency Mr.. Curtis
was laboring to restore to power IN the Nation
political party which he had thus pilloried
and excoriated OF course not. The very sug-
gestion is an insult to his intelligence and sin
certify. But on the other hand, his devotion to
Mr.. Cleveland WAS not due to an ardent desire
to retain the Republican party in power. Very
well then-so far AS the last campaign was con-
cerned Mugwumpcry as it expressed itself
through Mr. Curtis had for its aim not govern
ment by either party, but the success of an IN
dividual.
Hence our cOnundrum to Mr.. Curtis: If you

party was it that You believed ought to govern

The chief interest in the annual sessions or
the Methodist conferences centres in the ap-
pointments, which are reserved until the clos
ing hour. The announcements were made
yesterday in two of the bodies which have been
in session in this vicinity. Formerly the
changes to be made were kept profoundly Sc
cret by the Bishop and his council of presiding
elders, but in recent years it has been growing
custom for the principal churches. at least, to
pick out their own ministers and the Bishop
merely ratlfies the selections made. Among
many city churches the desire for longer pas
torates than three years, which Is the extreme
limit, is strong; but tho itlnerant system, TO
which much of the rapid growth of the Metho-
dist body is attributed. has a powerful hold
upon the church at large, and any attempt in
the direction of relaxing it, even by extending
pastOrates when ministers and people mutually
wish it, is vigorously opposed. 1t was not
many years ago that the term was increased
from two years to three, and doubtless a
further extension will have to be made sooner
or later.
