The Uhickasaw Messenger charges
MS with want of sympathy with the
tax.paying masses" because we can
not consent to sec the a, n VI Col
lcge pulled down. 1t appears to us
that il agricultural education is dcs'r'
able at all, we must have Tin colleges,
ur at experiment stations; because the
necessary appliances Tor the illusira-
ton of the various branches Of study
would be too expensive to supply TO
all common schools. Ne sensible man
would propose anything more in the
| common schools than instruction IN
the rudimeuls, which could DO i'm
parted without the aid of expensive
apparatus and outfit. Therefore, rs
| We believe Bro, Burkitt to be candid,
we should like TO understand the
principle Of his opposition. lie knows
there if no element of argument in his
continued dcnunciation of the a. Il NJ.
College as a Tombstone Industry"
any more than there is in his constant
reference in treating OF the subject to
the bleeding tax payer. If the mon
cy is properly spent, the paltry sum
contributed by each taxpayer is not
enough to talk about, mach less to
form the basis OF coarse vitupcration.
Neither the BEACON nor the people
of Noxubcc county defends what Mr..
Burkitt calls the machine" in eur
State politics, but he is certainly hard
pressed for an offensive alluSion when
he connects the A. n VI. with the State
political machine" OF all the in,ti-
tutions OF the State, the a, Il NJ. Col.
lcgc enjoys the unique distinction OF
being the only one which has got q
fling from the machine. See Cover

Strangely, Lowry and Burkitt seem
agreed IN II thing opposition to
the A.. ~ NJ. College, Wool-hatism
and the machine meet on II common
Z ground. BELIEVING in Bro. Burkitt's
cardor. we venture to enquire:
!. DO you oppose agricultural edu-
cation?
?. Would your opposition to the A,
~ NJ, College apply equally ITO all

The Reading Strike.

. PnllaQelpnIa Times
The strike of the Reading miners seems to be
settling down for a test of endurance We
would glo1ly present q more hopeful view of
the conflict, but the facts do not warrant it.
The positions OF the contendng parties
be clearly stated in very few words. The miners
claim an increase of s per cent in their
wages, and they struck for the increase without
first exhausting efforts for conference or ar BIZ
tration They claim that they are justly entitled
to the increase, and they now declare their
willingness to arbitrate the question.
The Reading corporations decline arbitration
because. Is they state, they mine only about
20 per cent of the anthracite output, and
they cannot pay higher wages than others and
compete with them in the markets. They also
regard the railway strike, and the more or less
sympathetic miners strike that followed it, as q
menace to the control of the property of common
carriers. that 10 Indispensable under the laws of
the State.
After all the chaff is winnowed away from the
issue, the marrow of the dispute is fairly pre-
sented in the foregoing brief paragraphs. Arbi-
tration being refused with miners, It is now
reasonably certain that the railway and miner
strikers viii pool their Issues and make a stand
for the maintenance of the labor organizations.
Ii the contest shall assume that aspect, q long
and costly conlict may be anticipated.

morning the order was carried out, and the
casket was taken to a receiving vault, where, in
the presence of Mrs. Keep, Coroner Robinson
and reporter of the Associated Press, it was
opened. Though the body was evidently in
advanced state of decomposition, the features
were perfect, almost in life, and Mrs Keep

Indiana has had the tail of the ticket about long
enough, and little good it has done us. too.
Our Democrats have not forgotten the fact that

vice presidency has no patronage, and the Indl-

bricks. with his national putation, was almost
imp otent with the administration when it came
to the dspensation of patronage
"a chief of bureau is much more important to
the people than the vice-presidencv, and this is
the sentiment of our intelligent Democrats,
far rs have heard it expressed. Mr.. Voorhees,
name has also been mentioned for the yice-pres-
idency, but am satisfied that no has no inclina-
ton in that direction. He simply wants to be
his own successor in 1891, and contest between
him and Gray for that place may be put down
Of the political certainties / do not believe
that the State Democratic convention will in
dorse anybody for the vice-presidency. There is
growing sentiment against it. There are too
many gentlemen in Indiana who want official
recognition, and who believe that their claims
will be prejudiced by the nomination and cleo
ton of Democrat from Indiana, and who will
prevent tho contamination of this folly"
