That was a crowd which massed
themselves together in Opera Hall
last Monday evening; the occasion be-
ing the Musical given under the aus
pieces of the Kimball Piano and Organ
manufacturers of Chicago. and under
the special direction of G. ). Lowe,
local agent of the company for this vi
cinity. The entertainment was chiefly
rendered by the musical home talent of
River Falls, The numbers given by
the Ladies' Band were very fine. The
double duet by ladies of Hudson, the
selection given by the male quartet:
Messrs. Roberts, Weeks, Avery and
Armstrong. the cornet duet by Messrs.
Weeks, and the solo by Miss Michael
son, of Hudson, were all illustrations
of the old Proverb--" Music hath
Charms"

ing. In another column may be seen
the report. The fact is, Pierce county
is just alive with statesmen and the

to cast the burden of public service.

Of this must be the benefit of all. At

THE STRIKE PRESENTS NO NEW PHASE
this week, unless it be that the miners in
the Schuylkill and Lehigh regions are more
determined than eyer to hold out against
the workings of calloused-hearted COM
bination of corporate monopolists who haye
resorted to the grinding method as means
of having their employees return to work.
President Corbin's garbled report of the
contract made and agreed upon by both
employer and employee last September, is
without foundation of truth. That the
president of so vast corporation as the
Reading system would resort 10 the low,
mean and contemplate method of misre-
presentation has won for the miners much
sympathy in this fight. While the ADvo-
CATE is an enemy to the strike system, we
would be inhuman did we not sympathize
with the oppressed workingmen in the coal
fields who have been misrepreseuted by
dominant monopohstic powers. The AID.
YoCATE set forth last week the condition
of affairs and the method that should be
pursued to gain settlement, and we have
no reason to change our views at this day.
We have always been strong adherent to
arbitrative methods as a means of settling
all difficulties that disrupt labor and capi-
tai, and we believe that the sooner such
method is fixed upon by the labor organiz-
stions for the settlement of all misunier-
standings between employer and employee
the more substantial will be the results.
In this connection the Reading employees
erred, they made their demands, unreason-
able,they could only have expected refusal,
for the right to employ or discharge by an
employer should not be infringed upon.
For this there was no need of arbitration,
the men should have resumed work, but in
the case of the Schuylkill miners arbitra-
tive elements for settlement should have
been complied with by the company. There
IS no excuse for this, the dominant and
crushing force of monopolistic greed is too
evident. What the outcome of all this
will be is, as yet. impossible TO be fully
comprehended, true it is that it will result
In great victory for one of the two op-
posing forces. Which will 1t beP

made for the Democracy, they were not to
be made from any causes that favored the
party locally. A third reason is that there
was no proper organization of the party
throughout the State. How can a State
Chairman properly organize 450, 900 voters
in so short space of time as between con-
ventlon of 1Ss7-say sixty days-and cleo
tion7 This organization devolved mainly
upon county organizations and ifthe coun-
ty organization failed to do their duty their
State chairman is not at fault. Any per-
son who has had any knowledge of the last
campaign knows that Chairman Sanders,
by visits, appeals and letters urged these
local organizations to do their duty, and If
they failed we repeat that Sanders, having
done what he could in the time allotted.
is not at fault. In view OF these consider.
atlons 1t is readily recognized from whence
this opposition cometh--it is selfish and
personal. Sanders deserves a reelection
at the hands of his party-he is fit and
capable TO discharge any and all duties in
VOWED in such a position. This is recog-
nized, and his success will be signalized at
the meeting of the. State Committee on

"King Edwin 1st of Phillippi. 1t is satire
of much merit, on the present obnoxious
and prying municipal administration--con-
Quoted as 1t is upon the basis (so charged)
of puritanicai notions. "This King of
Phillippi' is making hit like unto Rufus
E. Shapley's "Solid for Mulhooley' of
few years ago. The difference is that they
represent opposite conditions. The sarcasm
and satire of this later production is cutting
and forceful. 1t creates much fun and
laughter at the expense Of "King 'Fitlee'

tum,' and 'Waglee (Wagner) Chief Sweep
err as they administer municipal affairs
under the Bully Bell (Bullltt Bill Char

is in charge or directed by the ''Jaw and
Order Society" (Law and Order) and as
result all citizens are necessarily in straight
jackets, as a result of those rights and
privileges guaranteed by the principles of
liberty, &c. The puns and hits thus d.
rected are hugely enjoyed except by those
at whom they are directed.
