The barsh, drastic purgatives, once
deemed SO indispensable, have given
place to milder and more skillfully
prepared laxatives; hence the great

them for costiveness, indigestion, and

THE Legislature has been in session
. little more than a month, and but
two laws have received the signatures
which give them vitality. The noun
tain has, indeed, labored and brought
forth mouse. But let us be thank
full, that, at this rate of progress, but
little harm if not much good, will
be done. The probability is, however,
that soon as this big body gets its d.
costing apparatus in order it will flood
the State with " legislation" that may
not please the people any better than
the extravaganza they have shown so
far in all sorts of appropriations. In
any event, there is some cause for con-
graduation that the evils of much leg
islation are suspended for time, and
We can still pray that from the ills
that threaten may the Good Lord de-
liver US.

STRIKE STATISTICS.

The report issued by the New York
bureau of labor for the year ending No
vember l, furnishes some interesting and
valuable statistics relative to labor strikes.
The figures should have a good in
fuence on employers and employees
and cause them to do more than
they have done to try to adjust disputes
without a resort 20 strikes. 1t that state
alone during the year there were 7l6 strikes
in 511 establishments; the persons involved
numbered 1888, and the loss in wages was
81 ,0S3,6 1858. The percentage of these strikes
which resulted in an increase of wages was
larger than usual, in 253 cases the strikers
gaining, in a greater or less degree, what
they demanded. In forty one of the
strikes wages were reduced, and in 422
there was no change, the pay and the
hours of labor remaining as they were
The Brooklyn Citizen comments as follows
on the showing: SIT is consolatory to
know that the loss in wages during the
period under consideration is trifle more
than one-half of that of the preceding year,
showing the excellent effect of the inter
vention of the state board of arbitration
and mediation in settling labor difficulties.
Still more gratifying is the fact that the
gains for labor secured by these strikers
average almost one hundred dollars in
wages, from which, however, must be de-
Quoted the losses during strikes"
