PITTsBURe. THURSDAY, JAN. Q. 1890
A REQUESTED OPINION.

The DISPATCH has received from Mr..
Ross, District Master Workman OF the
knights of Labor, a circular addressed to
the press of Pittsburg, asking an editorial
expression of opinion in connection with the
strike on the Pittsburg Traction road,
whether it is right to discharge men simply
because they belong to labor organization.
If THE DISPATCH has omitted an ex-
preston on this point in connection with
the cable road trouble it is only because its
position is so well known and has been so
often stated that repetition seemed unnec-
essary. 1t does not think it justifable to
discharge men for belonging to labor or
ganization, and regards such an act as an
unwarranted attempt to dictate their per-
sonal action. At the same time it is neces-
sary to say, in the same connection, that
this paper has, in the best interests of labor,
always expressed its earnest opposition to
ill-considered strikes, and has never con-
sidered the strike a justifable resort, unless
full attempts have been made to settle the
difficulty by compromise or arbitration, and
not even then except when there is good
chance for success. A retreat is better than
a battle which is sure to be lost.
These views have been so often expressed
in these columns, as for the best interests of
labor, that elaboration of them now would be
mere repetition.

BENEFITS OF ADVERTISING.
Dispatch Display Attracts Thousands Ot
PeonIe "a n Htore

People 10 a Store.
Readers Of The DISPATCH could not have
failed to notice the display advertisement OF
Horne Ward, which appeared in its issues Of
Monday and Wednesday mornings. and will
also appear tomorrow morning, calling atten-
tion to the January opening sales in the ladies'
muslin underwear department and calling at
tention also by the display cuts and descrip-
tion of garments to the large extent and variety
of their stock.
The effectiveness of advertising can only
be known to merchants who adyer.
tise in the right way and . mem
Der of the firm of Horne & Ward, when
interviewed, yesterday, by DISPATCH repre-
sentative stated that he was more than sur
prised by the result OF this special advertising.
Crowds of ladies blockaded the sidewalk on
Fifth avenue in front Of their show windows
yesterday, and after viewing the goods dis
played in Horne & Wards window, entered
their establishment, and during the entire day
throngs Of purchasers kept the army of clerks
busy.
1t is the province Of the newspaper to bring
the customers to a store, and once inside the
house it is the business of the merchant to sell
his goods.
This it is evident Messrs. Horne & Ward sue
ceed in doing, by following up their extensive
advertising from year to year, and thus from
year to year increasing the volume of their
sales.
Horne & Ward have devoted to the sale Of
those goods which they have been advertising
SO thoroughly large section of the center of
their store, taking in all about 80 feet of coun-
ter room. besides the goods which are stored
on the shelves.
In referring to the articles advertised by cuts
it may be interesting to others to know that
hundreds of these cuts have been presented to
the clerks by people both in the city and out pf
it. who have seen in them Just what they
wanted, and by this have secured it without
moments delay.
It would certainly be to the interest Of ladies
to call upon Home & Ward and see the very
superior make of underwear which they are
selling the quality, make and finiSh of the
garments being such that they capGot fail to
please persons of the most fastidibus and re-
fined taste.

AN UNFoUNDED APPREHENSION,

. Apropos of the Vanderbilt ball fnan-
cial writer in New York delivers himself of
the old attempt at the justification of so
cial extravaganza, in the threadbare plea of
the employment of labor to supply the ma
terials for the display. In the course of his
argument, which entirely ignores the fact
that periods of extravagant expenditure
have alwsys preceded eras of commercial dis
aster, the writer attempts to answer the ar
gument that if the money was not spent in
extravaganza it would have to be spent in
productive industry. as follows:
How long would it take to cram the country
full OF wheat and corn and pork and cotton
and to build houses enough to put roof over
the heads Of all its inhabitantsi And when
this was accomplished. suppose that we went
on producing more wheat, more corn, more
pork, more cotton, and more houses?
This dread lest the supply OF the staples
of life might become so over-abundant as to
make them altogether too easily obtained,
and make life quite too comfortable for the
common people, appears to be a general
frame of mind in New York financial cir
cles, to judge from the deliverances of the
unancldl WFllefS anu Jue monetary pOllcY OF
restricting production. But as it never has yet
been the case that the common population
was bothered with too much food to eat, too
abundant supply of clothes to wear, and
altogether too many good houses to live in,
it is hardly necessary for the millionaires of
New York to spend their wealth in extrava-
gsnce as matter of duty.
One fact at least shows that no such stern
duty imposes itself on them at present. At
the time that this social manifestation of
luxury was pending, social manifestation
of another sort was going on in the same
country. 1t was that of 100000 anthracite
miners in Pennsylvania. held in enforced
idleness to swell the dividends of some of
these rich people, securing the roads like
cattle in search of forage, and some of them
confronting actual starvation in their homes.
In the face of such a spectacle the ex-
treme anxiety of the New York millionaire
circle lest there should be an actually ex-
cessive plenty in the homes of labor, might
be temporarily at least, lulled into quiet.

OLEOMARGARINE LIKE WINE.
Decision That Neither Can be LuEged
Out of n Rearnnranf.

Decision That Neither Can be Lugged
OUT of Restaurant.
PHILADELPHIA, January ga case has Just
been decided by the Supreme Court in which
several questions are discussed which are of
practical interest to all persons who buy food
or drink at hotels or restaurants. Chief Justice
Paxson lends some spice to the discussion by
vigorous dissenting opinion. The questions arose
in proceeding which was instituted against
man named Miller who keeps restaurant in
Ptttsburg, to recover the penalty of 500 I'M
posed by the third section of the act of May 81,
1885, for the sale of Oleomargarine. Two men
went into Miller's place and among the articles
OF food furnished to them was 3 small dish con-
tanning oleomargarine They carried it away
with them.
The question arose of whether this was, in
the legal sense of the word, sale of oleomar-
garine. The majority sentiment of the Su-
preme Court is voiced by Justice Clark, who
says sit was the use of oleomargarine as food
and the fraud perpetrated upon the public in
its sale which was the mischief to be RENE
died" Chief Justice Paxson, in his dissenting
opinion, said thatOthe guests had a right to
satisfy their appetite. but after filling their
stomachs they should not also fill their pockets
and carry away the food they could not eat
As an illustration of the preceding argument
the Judge adds sentence which gives strong
intimation of what the decision of the court
would be upon case where wine or other
liquor was Thrown in" with meal He saysi
I'll an unlicensed keeper of a restaurant may
set before his guests a bottle of wine or othe2
Intoxicating liquor, charging regular price for
the same with other articles of food furnished
with liberty to take much or little of the liquor
as the guest may choose, or, failing TO drink lit
with his meal, permit him to take it away with
him, then the liquor laws of the Commonwealth
are of no avail and the license to sell Liquor is
wholly unnecessary"

THE LAW AND THE LIBRARY.

The bringing forward of the law of 1887 to
Justify the control of the Carnegie Library
in Allegheny by the City Property Commit
tee, revea e decided anxiety to find legal
basis for that action. The claim that this
law places the control of the library in the
City Property Committee is, however, a very
singular effort of logic.
The law simply makes library property
donated or created by taxation, the property
of the city, and authorizes Councils to levy
taxes for its support. The parks and FIRE
department are also the property of the city,
and taxes are levied by Councils, and it
would be Just as logical to claim the control
or these departments by the heretofore rather
unimportaDt body which has suddenly as
sumed such prominence.
OF course there is room for interminable
and discre6itable fighting over the matter;
but we have faith that the majority of
Allegheny Councils will see that they can
not afford to make any disposition of this
public institution which does not place it
above the mutations and squsbbles of
municipal politics.

MR.. PRApLkueTs NEW ROLE

It is neither surprising nor especially re-
gretable that the young man known un-
popularly as "Collars and Cuffs" and
officially as Prince Albert Victor of Wales,
has been received by the subjects of his
grandmother in India with scowIs and jeers.
1t is somewhat astonishing that Mr.. Brad
laugh should have been welcomed with
elusive enthusiasm by those same Hindoos.
But this is the latest news from England,
and the people who know everything ex-
plain the warmth of Mr.. Bradlaugh's recep-
tion by sttributing to the natives sympathy
with the English NJ. p. s proclaimed HOSTILE
ty to royalty and the upper classes in En-
gland. This sounds very plausible until one
remembers how entirely ignorant the aver
age Hindoo is of English politics, and how
very personal and local Mr.. Bradlaugh's
campaigns have been.
But supposing for the moment that the
Hindoo population has been reading up on
Mr.. Bradlaugh, and has had the tendency
snd motive of his political career explained
to them by friendly evangelists is it likely
that the extremely radical and original
moral ideas and social schemes of the infidel
reformer would insure for him the admira-
tion and respect of such a religious and con-
servative thinker as the Hindoo? All the
descriptions of the Hindoo. his way of life,
his ambitions, his social habits and mode of
thought we have ever read, stamp such an
event ss most improbable if not impossible.
The Hindoo may be unwilling to honor
libertine son of a libertine Prince, and the
rule of England is undoubtedly far from
popular in many quarters of Hindoostan,
but that Mr.. Bradlsugh is the sort of man
to play prophet in that land, we do not be-
lieTe.
