Pleasing knowledge.

The friends of AGuhlenberg College will
be pleased to learn that Messrs. James K.
Mosser and Thomas Keck, of Allentown,
have generously added $4,000 to their pre-
yious gift OF $40, 900 for the endowment Of
the Greek professorship in Muhlenberg
College.
In addition to the liberal gifts lately be-
slowed upon this institution it has also re-
ceived liberal offer from two warm friends
of the college. who have already given
largely to the effect that they will give
twenty per cent, additional to all monies
collected within year from March 3rd,
1888, for the liquidation of the debt, pro-
yided the sum collected does not exceed
fifty thousand dollars; that is, they agree,
if the college collects $4,000, or $4,000,
$4,000 or $4,000 they will give twenty per
cent, of the amount raised This offer
should greatly stimulate, not only the
officers. but also the friends of the institu-
tion here and elsewhere, TO labor and to
give literally towards the liquidation OF
the debt, which is the only remaining
obstruction in the Way of making Nulhen-
erg College one of the best colleges In the
land.

" Scribe.

The venerable George Carroll, of this
place Is dangerously ILL., his recovery Is
very doubtful
The coal trade is brisk, several Of the
collieries in the Hazleton region have re-
sumed, the great stake is about oyer.
What has been gained? Some day the
history of this great struggle will be opened,
and if we are no mistaken It will cause the
sudden departure of many who are now
posing as the friends of labor.
Mr.. Nicholas Houser, of Weatherly,
father Of Mrs. w. T. Brodhead, OF this
place, was stricken with paralysis on Sun
day night, he fingered till Tuesday night
All that loving tender hands could do was
done, but the worn out body refused to
rally, his wife preceded him some three
years ago, he leaves two daughters and
several grand children, the intermeat will
take place in the Weatherly cemetery
Saturday afternoon.
There is disposition to believe that
Randall will oppose and obstruct the
passage Of any tariff reform measure not
bearing the Randall stamps We are dis
posed TO doubt this. The party are pledged
TO tariff reform. There Is now one honest
effort to reduce taxation without injuring
the business Interests. The free trade"
buggaboo, can haye no place in an honest
discussion. 1t will be well for the hide
bound protectonist to halt and consider,
there is disposition on the part OF tariff
reformers to be conservative, but if badgered
abused and defeated now, there will come
time when an outraged tax ridden people
will REBEL and wipe out The present, entire
protection idea. 1t will be the part of
wisdom to discuss and pass tariff reform
measure, patrloticallY.
Mr.. Powderly brands the man who
takes one of the vacated positions on the
q. B. & Q. r. R., as a "scab" stay away
he says to the man out of employment,
better remain pauper, than be a "scab."
This kind of ADVICE from the heretofore
conservative Grand Master Workman
seems little strange. Will his advice if
followed give the idle engineer or fireman
a situation, will it better his chances for
the future, will it furnish bread, will it satisfy
the claims OF the family, will it make him
a better citizen. we believe such advice de-
moralizing to the labor army. Strikes
have not, do not, and will not benefit
labor, every intelligent right minded wage
worker admits this and individually oppose
strikes, what recompense is there for the
enforced idlers the result of strike? Ad-
mitting that the claim of the Engineers
and Firemen on this Western road is Just.
what mora! right have they to threaten
enforced idleness. loss of wages, and posi-
bly, loss of position on thousands of others.
The power of one man tc call out of
service enough employees to stop the
wheels of trade ard paralyze the business
of the country is too arbitrary, too iniuri-
Gus to be tolerated long. There will be a
reaction rendered necessary for the peace
and protection of the people. The indiyi.
dual who advocates boycotts and strikes is
the real "scab''-get rid Of this element
and much of labor's unrest, will be quietsd.
