The Kreucr., troubles.
by telegraph to the Dispatch.l


Nrw YORK, April 26.-The State Board
of Mediation and Arbitration met to-day
in the Aldermanic chamber for the pur-
pose Of investigating the troubles be-
tween the boss brewers and their work
men. The boss brewers or the United
States Brewers Association were repre-
sented by Hon. Ashbel j. Fitch and
Samuel Cutcrmeyer and the workmen
By SGmuel Gompers.
The chairman OF the board in opening
the proceedings stated the object OF the
investigation, and said the board would
first examine the employers. Inter
never then said the United States Brew
ers' Association declined to acknowledge
the authority Of the board to pry into
the private affairs of citizens. His clients
recognize no strike, lockout, nor exist
ence of any trouble between the brewers
and their employers His clients refused
TO be- examined or have their business
made public. They were present, he
continued, simply as spectators.
The chairman said a: Wen, we Will
then hear the wOrkmen. "
The examination Of witnesses for the
workmen added nothing to what has
already been published concerning the
strike, but it brought into prominence
the Socialistic and Anarchistic predllec-
tons OF Secretary Herbrandt, who is at
the head Of the Brewers Union and
editor of the BreUer gazette.

Club, and the Bourbon Democratic and
British press
That the Republicans of Maine favor
the abolition OF so much Of the Internal
revenue taxes as will bring the total an
nual receipts OF the Treasury to the
equal, as nearly rs practical, just ex-
penditures OF the Government.
That the Hon. James q. Blaine, our
long-trusted statesman, is deserving oil
the thanks Of the people Of Maine and
of the entire nation for the promptness
and remarkable ability and facility with
which in bis Paris letter he answered
the free-trade manifesto of President
Cleveland, and pointed ont the duty OF
maintaining American industries ana
markets for the American people.
That the recent filibustering OF the
Democratic representatives of Congress,
aided by President Cleveland, to defeat
the refunding to loyal States Of Sl7,-
900, 600 which they advanced to the
National Government when in peril by
armed rebellion, was wanton disregard
of the demands of financial honesty
and of national faith, and a shameful
violation of official duty and propriety,
aifording conclusive evidence that the
Democratic party is dominated by sec
tional influence, the outgrowth OF ex-
isting Confederate passions and preIu-
dices which many citizens had hoped
had died out and passed away.
That the Republicans of Maine renew
their declarations of hostility to liquor
saloons, whose influence is so very inIu-
rious to American homes and pernicious
in State and national politics.
That we firmly adhere to the opinion
that the best interests of the country
command that the civil-service law shall
be administered on business principles
according to its terms, and that we ar
raign the present National Administra-
ton for having wantonly violated it by a
course OF extreme partisan deception
and conspicuous hypocrisy.
