THOUSANDS upon thousands of dead fish are

inches in length and appear to be a species of

covered with ice, bushels of these little fish we're

from the Northern Pacific roundhouse, where
they came for air, and were sold to the Chinese

from the water in the lake, which is very shall

CINCINNATI.
An Evil Spirit Removed - Peace
Among Labor Organizations,

Cincinnati has the pleasure of report
ing favorable turn of affairs. The
scorned "baker's dozen of socialists have
won victory, and the opponents, tired
of battle, have withdrawn. The great
ialist-hater, 0. f. Wegener, is out of
the office Of the Cincinnati Zeitunq
where he accomplished considerable evil
as editor, and well known and tried
comrade from New York, Comrade
Jacob Willig, has been called to the edi-
torial chair.
1t may be imagined what the outcome
of Wegener's style of agitation might
have been when one considers that the
Beer Drivers Union, which he had COM
pletely won over, withdrew from the
Central Labor Union with the explana-
ton, "that they believed in the peace
ful solution of the labor question, while
the majority of the delegates were
against it,
The friends Of Mr.. Wegener have
found out by this time that he is great
er demagogue than his greatest op-
ponents even supposed for he has taken
the editorship of the Anzeiger and is u.s.
ing its columns to attack the labor organ
izations, and above all the radical ones,
in manner never attempted in this
city before.
We therefore recommend that our
comrades, especially the English-speak-
ing ones, remember o. f. Wegener,
as'this person at present calls himself, in
order that he may not at some future
time sneak in among them masked as a
"labor agitator."
This matter is the more peculiar from
the fact that Wegener is still Judge in
the K. of l..
Now that many people have discover
ed that the Socialists are sometimes in
the right, there are prospects of COM
plete state Of peace among the various
factions of the labor movement, as well
as in Cincinnati Zeitung Publishing Co.,
so that we can all unite our efforts in
harmonious agitation.
On Sunday, March IS, the Commune
Festival will be jointly celebrated by the
Socialist Section, the |. A. A. and the
Central Labor Union. Among other at
fractions 'The Deserter will be played,
and we have hopes of a great success.

STATE CONTROL OF RAIL
WAYS,

The Government should control
the highways and transportation
which is commerce, because it alone
can have no selfish or personal inter-
est to clash with and subordinate the
welfare of the people; because it in
terests all and is for the benefit of all
that transportation should be cheap
where it is now dear, and uniform
where it is now Disseminated to ben
eft monopolies, cheats and specu-
lating forestallers. Above all, it
should never permit a corporation
of individuals limited in numbers,
morals, honesty and character to
make the highways of the nation the

pressive burdens. Canadian Labor

THE ELEMENTS NOT PATENTABlE

In arguing the Rell telephone case be-
fore the Commissioner of Patents the
other day, Robert 6. Ingersoll, one of
the counsel, closed his argument with
the following pertinent remarks, which
it will be well for all inventors to remem-
ber. The conclusions are sound and as
applicable in other cases as the one on
which the learned council made the ap-
plication
Il do not believe any man can patent
the idea of sending speech by electricity.
He can patent devices by which that can
be done, but he cannot get a patent on
the lightning. A man can patent water
wheel but he cannot patent the water,
or say to the water you cannot turn any
other wheel but mine. A man can pat
ent windmill, but not the wind, and
any man who can make better mill may
use the same wind, because we do not
get our entire stock of wind from the
Patent Office or from the attorneys on
the other side Wind is the free gift of

torneys of the Bell people, without wind

A Socialist Play and Grand Ball
at the COncOrdia,

Last night the American Section, s.
L. F., and the Tenth District, p. l.. p,
gave theatrical performance and ball
at Concordia Assembly Rooms. The
play was entitled ''The Tables Turned" :"
written by VIM. Morris, and the charac-

New York people, at least in name. There
were Judge Jarrett, District Attorney
Bellows, Jake Harp, Captain HiIliams,
Bishop Horrigan, Mayor Levitt, George

voted to the agitation fund of the Sec

THE ENGINEERS STRIKE.
Probably viii be Soon Settled on a
Financial Basis.

The situation Of the engineers
strike on the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy railroad, at this writing
seems to be that traffic has been
practically stopped, and that but
few passenger and mail trains are
running.
The Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers has had little sympathy
from Organized Labor, and many
have expressed a wish that the broth
erhood engineers might be replaced
by members Of another labor organi-
zation. In view of the general con-
tempt for the scab organization
among organized workmen it is prob
able that Landlord Arthur will have
to make terms with the officers of
the road not quite so advantageous
as might otherwise have been made.
The manner of conducting the
strike seems to be on a basis ol
bribery, as the following item may
illustrate:
can engineer who is running an en-
gine on the Western division of the Ii.
and st. j. branch said he was $400 in
debt and must work. The Brotherhood
committee offered him a bribe to the
amount of his Indebtedness and three
months pay to leave. Superintendent
Crane offered him 81 900 and a job for
life, and he preferred that to the Brother
hood bribe.'
In view of the intimate relations
existing between the officers of the
Brotherhood and the managements
of the railroads throughout the
country, the strike on the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy road is a sur
prise, and may be simply a stock
iobbing "fake." One can easily see
how convenient it would be for
wealthy officers of a trades union to
arrange convenient strikes where
they have almost despotic power.
1t is still more probable in the rail
road business, where stocks are con-
tinually a matter Of speculation.
For instance, person wants to buy
stock of the road on which the strike
is now in force. The s'riko has de-
pressed the price by from. one-half
to one per cent. A man with money
to invest and the right Influence
could buy up such stock after the
strike is arranged, aud the price fall
en-. Then he could sell when the
strike has been settled, and the stock
risen in price again, and "make"
money.
There is little doubt that the strike
will be settled on compromise terms,
The object of the leading spirit will
probably be accomplished by the
time this reaches our readers.
