ARBITRATION OF LABOR TROUBLES.


 ARBITRATION OF LABOR TROUBLES.
 The examples that have been. furnished in this country-and they are by no means few-of successful mediation in disputes between interdependent interests should be a constant incentive to labor and car- ital to adjust all their differences by arbitration. There could be no better pre- ventive of industrial troubles than the knowledge that there existed a common jurisdiction, induced by common conf dence by which all differences should be adjudicated on wholly impartial lines. Unreasonable demands, either on the part of labor or capital, that lead to strikes or lockouts are ordinarily based on a con sciousness or feeling of superior force rather than a rigid expression of right. They are an ebullition of selfshness mere ly in nine cases out of ten.
 In some of the states there are state boards of arbitration and mediation based on the principle of personal justice be- tween man and man. The system of state arbitration provides for a submission of all the points advanced by both sides in controversy without prolonged interrup- tion of the business to which the discus: sion relates. By this method great in- dustry in which the public are directly concerned need not be suspended for 8 long time, entailing thereby injury to the public as well as to those intimately con nected herewith. The success that has attended the workings of the state board of ediation and arbitration in New York in the settlement of questions that have come before it has started discussion of the advisability of giving the board power to compel the submission of cases to it's judg- ment and to enforce its determination similarly to courts of law. With a compul- sorry arbitration law it would seem that strikes and lockouts might be to very great extent avoided. As soon as the diff ficulty reached striking or lockout point a case would be made out, submitted to the mediating authority and settled without any interruption suspension of business Such consummatiom would be of the greatest advantage to both sides of the con troversy involved and to the public gen erally.
 If compulsory arbitration should be adopted in New York state the workings of the system will be watched with much interest everywhere. If it be successful there it can also be made successful else where, and other states may be disposed to follow the example of the empire state. vent or to successfully adjust the nnmer- aus clashes that occur between capital and labor without lengthy interruptions of business it will assuredly be welcomed by the public who would see therein the solu- ton of a complicated social problem.

THE meeting called for next Sunday for the purpose of raising contributions to the Parnell defense fund should call out a large attendance and wake a spirit of generosity. The sum raised for Mir. Par nell in his trial has been exhausted, and he must be materially assisted if he is to make anything like successful presenta- tion of his case. It is not Pa~nell personally that is a1raigned so much as it is the cause of his country, and under such conditions every one who sympathizes with that cause should be prompt in rendering assistance according to their means. Wehope to see a large gathering and a spirit of great generosity at next Sundays meeting.

TEA GATHERING IN INDIA.
Coolie Women P1ucking the Leaf-In tn
 Whitening House-Fermentation.

Coo1ie Women P1ucling the Leaf-In tho
 Whitening House-Fermentation.
 The five grades of Indian teas-broken Orange Pekoe, broken Pekoe, Pekoe, Pekoe Souchong and Souchong-are all procured from the same plant. When a shoot is plucked from a tea plant it bears three or four leaves @nd bud. The smallest bud and leaf on the stalk make the finest teas, and the lower leaves on the stalk, when sifted, make the coarser kinds of tea. The coolie women, who are constantly employed from April to December plucking the leaf, are mustered between and 6 o'clock in the morning, and then go put to the portion of the garden where the leaf is quite ready to be plucked, which is, as rule, once every eight days. At Il o'clock the women are brought in to weigh their forenoon's leaf. and get leave to have food and rest till p. m., when they go out again and come in for the day at 6p. m. On an average day women will pluck thirty to forty pounds, which they carry in baskets on their backs, with strap on the head, which leaves them both hands free to pluck the leaf from the plants, which after three or four years grow to be large bushes
 The leaf, when brought in and weighed, is carried up into tho lofts by the women to the factory men, who are told off to spread it on W1tueIluS tFdpS OE CnululeS, WHICH arc placed in tiers all along the length of the whitening house, which allows of the leaf getting the quantity of air required to wither 1t properly for manufacture next morning. As a rule, when the weather is favorable for whitening, tea manufacture begins at a. m. The leaf is put into rolling machines, which are made with such perfection that the mo- tion of. the hand rolling-used in all tea gar dens before machinery was adopted-is now obtained by the use of cranks and cog wheels The leaf is given light or & heavy pressure according to the state it Is in during the time it is in the rolling machine. It is then taken out and spread on fermenting tables to get the necessary fermentation, which gives the tea the red coppery color infused tea leaves have.
 After getting the proper fermentation, the leaf gets second roll of short duration to fix the color of the fermentation. The second roll being finished, the rolled leaf is taken to the drying machines to be dried. The most skilled factory hands work these machines, and they give the leaf the proper amount of drying, which gives the tea the black color as you see it. The tea is now ready to be sifted into the different grades. After the whole tea has been put through tea breaker, it is then passed through sitting machine-a long revolving cylindrical frame, with the varied sizes of wire meshes attached to it, worked at u slight angle, so that the tea as it revolves falls through the different meshes, under each of which are sheets which convey the tea into boxes, each grade of tea being kept separate. The tea is now ready for a final drying before packing. Cor. North British Advertiser

TARIFF IN THE SENATE.

The senate has already begun it's attack very serious, for it is the same old bill for buncombe that is up for discussion and action. Consideration of the bill at this session is something of a perfunctory nature, to throw more dust in the eyes of western republicans who are clamoring for tariff reform. As Senator Allison amour ced publicly before the adjournment in October that he would insist on pressing the bill at this session, no matter what the result of the election might be, he feels it incumbent now to make some showing of being true to his word.
 We do not believe there will be any revison of the tariff at the pending session of congress. The principle of the senate bill-cutting down the revenues by raising the duty on imported goods and so reduc- ing the amount of imports-can never be accepted by the democratic house. And it is equally certain that the republican senate, however much it may be disposed to accept the main features of the Mills bill, will hardly have the effrontery to do it in the face of the plea on which they carried the country last month. In some respects, indeed, the senate bill goes further in the direction of free trade than the house measu~e-and, according to President-elec Harrison, it is not so much the length of the step that is important as the direction it takes The senate bill in it's essential features as it is now constituted is contrary to all the pro. fessions made by the republicans during the campaign, when they held up the tariff as a sacred thing not to be touched lest injury be wrought to the interests of the country But as the election is safely over and the need exists no longer for misrepresenta tion, pretense must be made oi yielding to the necessity of re ducing the surplus and putting the hoarded and unnecessary riches of the government back into the channels of trade and the pockets of the people. Knowing that the principle of their bill is wrong and will not be accepted by the democratic house, they feel safe in making their bluff.
 It is a waste of time for this congress to sool longer with the tariff. The country can wait for the Fifty-frst congress, when there will be a republican majority in both houses, and then if the party chooses it will have the power of revising the tariff in any way it may wish. It will then be

Letter Boxes of New York,

AS we walked from one of the Sixth avenue stations to the restaurant where was to have my first Square American meal" l noticed how different the letter boxes are from the purple red pillars of England, re- minding one of Tommy Atkins on guard at street corners, They are dark green and small, and are fastened to street lamp posts They are so insignificant that I probably should not have noticed them but for the marvellous ornaments they each and all wore. These were ornaments in a true sense of the word. being proofs of the trustworthi- ness of the community those boxed served. They were bundles of papers, pamphlets. and even books, too bulky to be forced into the aperture for letters, therefore left there on the top of the box, in full view and open ex- posture to every passerby, till the postman should make his next round
 This is a common practice all over America that is, in cities. Every Christmas time since then have been amazed to see how thor oughly the American public is trusted Every Christmas, often at other times, the letter boxes are filled high with packages of all sizes and shapes, awaiting the postman. Every one of them had a Christmas look, and even the postage stamps on them would tempt dozens of street arabs, one would think If any are stolen never heard of 1t, and the practice Is so general as to attract no atten- tion. Once at the corner of Sixth avenue and Twentieth street saw sudden gust of wind send half dozen of these packages flying. Every passer by put himself in pur. suit, but he who caught the most of then, was the peanut vendor whose stand is at that corner.
 That opportunity is not lacking to steal is proved by the number of times have paused at midnight to expatiate upon the honesty of people that could see stamped newspaper or two lie all night long upon the top of a post box without running away with it, Deliverance Dingle in Cassell's Family Maga- zine F-- '-f' - 7

CLEvELANDs hostility to the old soldier is shown by the fact that the disburse- ments for pensions during the last twelve months constituted 31 per cent of the ex- penditures of the government for the same period, and were equivalent to 214 per cent of the gross income of the United States. If the whole business went for pensions there would undoubtedly be some Foraker to denounce Cleveland as a foe to the old soldier.

 make, and whether it be in the direction of higher or lower duties the party will be accountable to the c, untry. There is other work that should be attended to dur ing the present session more important than wasting time on buncombe and rain bow chasing. To that work the senate should attend.

IT would be interesting to hear what President Cleveland thinks now about civil service reform, also pernicious activ- ity. If he wanted to know what federal employees think of the latter he might have taken trip around to the polling places in New Haven last Tuesday. He could have learned enough there to give him material for a dozen messages.

THE RED BANDANA

We believe in thaa part of Belva's plat form published in the DEMOCRAT referring to education, the lack of which is shown by her grammar. But the demand that every husband buy a Shoninger Piano or Organ for his wife entirely destroys her chances. Oh, Belva, would you destroy family ties throughout our landa No. The Red Bandana will be used for the next four years in dusting such Fine Pianos as Mason & Hamlin, Boardman & Gray, Baus, and Wilcox & White and New Eng land Organs. A company with business stability is preferred to the hireling of a manufacturer who sells Pianos for new ones and few months later claims they were manufactured long years ago.
