Lancaster daily intelligencer. [volume] (Lancaster, Pa.) 1864-1928, 1889-10-08

General Boulanger is advertised by
cable correspondents Of New York jour
mails as about to set out upon an inva-
sion Of France against the advice Of all
his advisers. This may or may not
be a true report. So much that
is sensational Is printed with
out foundation, that we put little
confidence I'm the reliability of this
statement. But there is no telling what
a Frenchman will not do and II Is
possible that Boulanger proposes to go
alone, in q raid on France, Just as..it IL
possible that II will he q successful one,
however strongly the conditions seem to
indicate otherwise. The fact that his
advisers advise against II is rather in its
favor since man Of destiny does not
90 according to advice of his counsellors.
II is by breaking away from prudent
counsel, and succeeding, that Napoleons
declare themselves and IL Is Napo-
leon that Boulanger would be.
The French have just decided by a
large majority In their elections that
they are satisfied with the republic. But
Boulanger may show quite the reverse.
The Frenchman at al election booth,
and the Frenchman within sound Of a
bugle call, are different creatures. They
may flock TO Boulangcr's standard Just
rs they flocked TO the government ballot
boxes

We regret to see that there is dispute
between employer aud employed In the
cigarmaking business Of this city. II Is
an important industry here and we trust
IL is not 10 be damaged by the unreason-
ableness of those engaged in it. Such n
result would doubtless be welcome to
rival factories In other places, which have
seen with alarm the growth Of the cigar
making business in Lancaster and
would be delighted TO prevent 1t.
80 far a. We can see, the proposition
made by the employing firm here,
which IL objected to by their workmen,
seems reasonable; and 1t at least deserves
the trial which the employers ask for It.
The workmen will remember that II will
profit them nothing TO refuse any
method that will tend to cheaper their
manufacture and that the only
result In making their product costly,
will be to stop the production.
They are entitled to such wages as
their labor will command and If they
can get more elsewhere there is no rea-
son why they should not go and get 1t.
The employer knows what he can pay
onu - uOt uhciy 10 oueI HoOu WOTkIlcH
hess. He ought TO know, too, how to
conduct his business and In this he
should not be interfered with 10y his
workmen.
There is never any need Of difference
between reasonable employer and rea-
sonable workmen. When it is conceded
that the latter should have the best
wages the same market affords, they
can fairly ask nothing more. When the
employer is left free to manage his busi-
ness rs he pleases, paying the wages his
neighbOrs pay, his business will prosper
according to his management, when the
6eld Of his labor is well chosen.
1t 10 not open to question that this is
good field for cigarmaking. 1t has to
meet, however, the powerful competition
OF large capital already invested in less
favorable locations, and 1t will have to
nght to secure the proper reward of its
superior location. 1t is to the cigar
makers interest to help the manufactu-
ser.by yielding ready aid toevery reas-
enable effort to facilitate the manufac-
ture; and we hope that workmen will be
able to see it.

Railroad Lawlessncss.

A Philadelphia gentleman who had
the courage and industry to sue the
Reading railroad company for putting
him or train, upon which he was a
habltual passenger, because he would
not surrender his ticket to the con-
ductor until he had been given a seat,
has been awarded s25 damages. the Judge
declaring the law to be all In his favor
The railroad company had originally
caused him to be arrested under the law
which subservient Legislature lately
passed, making II crime, summarily
punished, to ride upon railroad with
out intent to pay the fare. This law was
sccuretl under the railroads representa-
tives that they were subject to great
lo1 and damage by the invasion of their
trains by trampe; and II was invoked In
this case by the Reading railroad to
punish . passenger who insisted upon
being given the seat he had paid for.
The charge was withdrawn, however,
when Il came under the cognizance OF
more intelligent officials but no redress
was offered the abused passenger, who
therefore sought It in the courts.
A Pittsburg man has lately been re-
corded as having resisted another COM
mon railroad ABUSE, which requires
passenger who has not bought
ticket to pay ten cents more than the
ticket would have cost. But as the COM
panies always charge the full extent of
what the law allows them TO charge for
their tickets, the ten cents demanded In
addition IL an unlawful charge; as the
court decided when the Pittsburg pas
senger appealed TO 1t.
A Hut IN such cases ms these, II does not
materially help the passenger that the
law h all in his favor for the railroad
companies are big enough to defy the
law, when only the passengers and
freighter's interest opposes them. A
b & railroad is run with mighty little
regard to the law indeed. The men
whom II oppresses, who are courageous
enough aud stiff-necked enough to haul
Il before the courts for Its ofienses, are
very few, and possibly the reason IL
that IL does not pay them to do
II. Men, generally, In these de-
based times Of money making, are not
wont to do things for the sake
Of abstract justice which do not pay
and when great corporation is over on
the other side. and II is plain that II will
be q costly business to fight 1t, the
injured individual generally sees the
wisdom of pocketing his afiront and
saving his money. The man who refuses
t0 be abused, however costly the effort
to defend himself, il the nobler man; but
he h not the common man.
And the railroad officers know IL I;
Ald they go In their defiance Of the law,
treating their passengers and customers
rs they please giving one q seat, or
car, or pass, or low rates, while they
charge another an extra price and make
him stand, to boot. There It is no mea-
sure to their discrimination. The rail-
road officer Is born to depravity, as the
sparks fiy upward ; and no decency will
be taught him until the law sends him
10 Jail for his wrong doings.
