The Chicago strikers are in very
angry mood. The company in sub-
shutting non union man for union
men have reused all the bad blood of
their old employees. There is a right
and a wrong in this matter. If EN-
ployees are not allowed to band to.
gether and urge their rights their
monopoly and greed will prass them
into the very earth. If a man has
gwen his ilfe to anything and knows
but that one line Of work he can Ger
tainly do that better than one who
has never tried before to do it. Now
these street car drivers are dependent

By reference to another column
the coroner's verdict on the death of
Davenport can be seen. The docu-
ment is manly one and lays the
blame of the affair partly whore it
belongs. The man was not really
responsible for his own death. for he
was too drunk.to take care of him>
self at the time. His companions
were not fully to blame either, for
they We're too drunk to take care of
themselves-or anybody else. Now
all these men were responsible for
being drunk. They deliberately put
themselves into such q condition
that they could not take care of
themselves. But were they wholly
to blame for this? Is it not unlaw-
ful to sell whiskey to intoxicated
men? Is it not unlawful to allow
drunken, quarreling men on the
streets? Is the police of Port Town |
send wholly blameless in this affair?
The proof, eonclusively, is that a |
quarrel had occurred on the dock. |
Now where was the police? Why
was not these men, who were not ca
pab!e OF coring for themselves, cared |
for by the guardians of the city?
We think that the affair should pro-
woke thought and that our citizens |
should demand a different state of |
things. If these men had been |
promptly arrested as they should
have been, this sad accident wonId |
not have occurred.

Rough on Tramps.

Judge Nash, in sentencing the
tramp Barber, gave him d long lee
ture and short sentence. He told
hlm the industrious and honest peo-
OF Washington Territory had tired
of his class and were determined to
make them either earn an honest
living, leave the country or serve
terms in the penitentiary. His Of
Tense was one which ought to consign
him to the penitentiary for twenty
years, but the judge felt disposed to
be lenient, and would let him off with
with two years. The prisoner Bar
ber's otfense was in going from one
saw>mill to another with his hands
tied up, representing that an acci-
dent in mill bad deprived him of
his hands and that lie was unable 70
work. On these representations he
had solicited and secured aid. FL
nally the fraud was discovered and
Barber was indicted, convicted and
sentenced -Ellensburgh Capital.
The New York Sun addresses an
editorial to GleveIand, in which it
asks him to stand by Hill and not
let himself be controlled by the mug
wumps. Mr.. Dana says: "Will
you hesitate and refuse to speak the
word that will drive the mugwump
sneaks from their last ditch of lying
hypocrisy and fill the hearts OF the
New York Democracy with fresh en-
couragement and hope?" We are
afraid the dictionary does not con-
tain words enough to cure the Mug
wumps of the propensity Mr.. Dana
deprecates. Lying and hypocrisy
are natural to them, and can't be
driven out by any such simple pro.
cess as the editor of the Sun rec
ommends. il MIR. Cleveland were to
boot MIR. Curtis out of the White
House, he would turn around and
speak admiringly of tho fine polish
of tho Presidents footwear.
We would like to ask the Demo-
Gratis who say their party is not for
free trade, what Representative
Bland meant when he spoke as fol-
lows on the 18th of July last in tho
House of Representatives: l am not
here for the purpose of voting for a
tariff on lead, or tariff on anything.
but l am here to get the tariff off
everything L can. 1 am in combine
for the purpose of reducing taxes,
and l will vote for bill with free
lead, or FREQ anything else in it to
accomplish that purpose.
The fact that Emperor William of
Germany refuses to permit bills of
fare to retain their French nomencla-
ture III his household is q straw
which shows that the wind is blow
ing in the direction of European war.
The road to a mans heart is said to
be through his stomach, and when
the sovereign ordains that the seat
of his affections shall not be apN
preached by means OF foreign lam
guage his patriotism must be of an
explosive character.

The urgent need of more buildings
of every kind is pressing upon our
people. Yesterday a lady came
down from Sprague and desired to
locate in business here. She could
find no room even to lodge and says
she must go away Immediately
Scores of people are coming and go,
ing who would stay if they could
only get houses. We must have
more lumber and more carpenters.
Don't wait until spring. That will
be too late. Build now. If our loA
cal mill can not do the work of cut
ting the lumber, our builders will
have to pool their needs and buy a
ship-load of lumber at some of the
big mills on the Sound. We must
have more houses at any cost.

oral decision this morning in the
Chinese cases argued last week to
test the constitutionality of the ex-
clusion act. The Judges decision,
which is concurred in by United

that the act is constitutional, and
that all the Chinese who have ar

may hereafter arrive, NUT return
from whence they came. A written

Chinese act. He is q naturalized
British subject, but when he applied
at the United States custom house

Keow expressed his intention of test
ing in the courts whether he can be

OUR JULY WEATHER.
General Greedy Thinks There Will
no More Hot Waves This Month.

General Greedy Thinks There VIII be
no More Hot Waves This Month.
General Greely, Chief of the Signal
Service Bureau, is out with a statement
TO the effect that there will be no pro-
tracted heated spell during the month of
July, for the reason that the existing con-
ditions are such that they cannot generate
hot wave. The present cold weather is
directly traceable to the storms that have
recently passed over the country from
northwest to southeast, and drawn the
cold air from Manitoba and scattered it
over the eastern portion of the United
States. Heated terms are caused, accord
ing to General Greedy, by the earth
throwing off the heat of the suns rays
accumulated during long dry spell.
The recent severe rain storm throughout
the country, during which in some places
three inches of rain fell in less than
TWEEN ty-four hours, has so moistened the
earth that it is impossible for it to become
heated sufficiently to cause spell of ex-
cessively hot weather, such as was ex-
perienced in the East in July, 1897, and
other years. The storms of wind accom-
panylng the rain have so cooled the
atmosphere and scattered the cold of the
Northwest over the States that it is al
most impossible that any unusual heat
should occur at present.

The new ladies PSYCHIC bicycle bids fair
to rival i'm numbers the machines in use
by the sterner sex. AS an evidence Of
the fascination the wheel has for the
ladies, it is only necessary to state that
week ago lady came here from Phila-
dclphia especially to learn the mysteries
Of the bicycle that's built that way"
Last Monday, in company with her hus.
band, she sought out the Capital Cycle
Company, Fourteenth and New York
avenue, and in the spacious yard took
the first lesson. The practice was con
tinued from day to day during the week,
and on Saturday she concluded to test
her ability at long distance riding, and
set out on n bicycle for Cabin John
Bridge, her husband riding trike, In
the event that the long run should prove
fatiguing, but she Travelled the entire
route eighteen miles, dismounting only
for the hills This clearly shows the
possibilities of the machine. Friday
week the Cycle Company shipped to
lady in Chicago a Psyche, and in forty
eight hours received orders for three
others from that place. This is not sur
prising, as the machine is a decided inn
provement over all others, from the fact
that II is readily used by both sexes.
Mr. Sharretts of the Capital Bicycle
Club and wife use tandem Psyche
bicycle, on which they will make tour
through the New England States, accom-
panied by Mr.. Frank Boteler who will
ride a Safety. Their machines have been
shipped TO Boston, from which place
they are TO begin their journey. II Is the
intention of the party to visit the prOmi-
nent summer resorts of New England
and they expect to be absent about a
month. This will be the first trip ever

interesting sight to those who may meet
them on the road. 10 Is generally con-
Cedcd that the American ladies excel
their English sisters at the pedal, and, at
no distant day, long journeys with
sweethearts and wives on wheels will be
the proper caper.
The only similar effort in England was
the bridal tour, through the Continent, of
MIR Joseph Pencil and wife on tandem
trike. Mr.. Penncll was a former member
of the G. Bi. g., and will be remembered
as the artist who furnished sketches of
the trip to the various American maga-
zines.
Mr.. John Boutele has a lady's Psyche,
which is often used by Mrs. Boutelle.
Mr.. Joseph Leming has just purchased
a lady's bicycle, made especially for him.
1t is stated that MIR. Leming will be
greatly pleased to have his numerous
lady friends call on him for the use Of his
machine.
Mr.. Max Hnnsmanu, one of the found
ers Of the G. Bi c., has taken to a tandem
bicycle. 1t is n frequent sight to see him,
in company with some fair one, wheeling
rapidly through our streets.
About forty ladies are to be seen every
fair day at the Capital Cycle Club, learn
ing the use of the bicycles, which they
are prepared to furnish in any numbers.

The repairs on the canal will be COM
pleted by Tuesday and the water turned
on in the upper levels.
Mr.. Theodore f. s. King, who fell from
train last week at Rockville, as previ-
ously mentioned in THE Critic, was not
so seriously injured as at first supposed,
and is now at Gaithersburg. In falling
Mr.. King struck in n pond of soft mud
and water thereby breaking his fall, and
he only sustained few bruises.
The bridge which spans the canal at
Frederick street, and which has been
barricaded for some time on account of
its dangerous condition, fell in last night
with loud crash, which alarmed those
hvlngin the eneighborhood. Notwithstand-
ing boards were placed at either end of
the bridge, pedestrians still continued to
use the structure, and it is very fortunate
that no one was on it at the time.

Its First Anniversary.

The National Temperance Home,
which is doing so much good work for
the cause of temperance held its first
anniversary meeting last evening in the

dist Church. The meeting was presided
over by NJ. G. N. Whitney. The presi-
dent, Miss Chase, and vice president, Miss
Russell, Congressman J, d. Taylor of
Ohio and Others were seated on the
platform.
The annual report, read by the pres-
dent, made a fair showing of the good
work done by the institution. The ad-
dress of the evening was delivered by
Hon. j. d. Taylor, who said the prohi-
bitionlsts failed in Ohio because there
was not a fair count. He praised the
Temperance Home for what it had done.
He said he would favor an appropria-
ton by Congress of $4,000 to erect a
chapel IN connection with the home, in
order that its inmates might be brought
under Christian influence, which was
essential to secure permanent reform,
