1t will be well to ask why blank commits
sions with the Sheriff's name attached are
placed at the disposal of Robert Pinkerton
to be placed in the hands of ignorant men,
who believe that under this authority they
have the right to shoot citizens to death.
In order to test this case still further, and
to learn if all citizens would receive the
same treatment, l telegraphed Sheriff Tap
pan, of Rensselaer, County, asking him If
he would swear in two hundred deputies to
protect the lives of our members. He re-
piled that he did not think the present stu
alton would warrant the appointment. w.
Walter Webb applauds the action of the
Pinkertons in shooting, and says they did
right.
The knights of Labor hold themselves in
readiness now, and will continue to hold
themselves ready, to yield to the will of the
public in this matter. The company, on the
other hand, holds itself above and superior
to public opinion. [ would here ask the
men still in the employ of the New York
Central and Hudson River Railroad whether
it be not to their interest to stand by and
support those who are striking to vindicate
the common right to organize. The General
Executive Board will conduct this contest
with all of their ability within the law and
without violence. To do this we require
funds, and that at once Public-spirited
citizens, who believe in fair play, are asked
to contribute to the liberty fund in aid OF
the striking employees of the New York Cen
trail and Hudson River Railroad. Send all
contributions to John w. Hayes, 814 North
Broad Street, Philadelphia, Pa.

The following account of the perilOuS
adventure of three lads comes from Ash
land: James and Willie O'Brien and
Frank Gallagher on Sunday afternoon
launched small boat and propelled it
with pair of paddles to point three
fOurths of mile off shore, when one of
the violent squalls for which Lake SUI
perior is noted struck them. They
lost their paddles and the boat be-
gan to fill with water. Jim and
Frank, aged respectively and 10 years,
jumped into the water on either side of
the boat and each of them put one hand
on the gunwale, padding with the other,
while Willie, who was only z, bailed the
water out with his hat. Knowing it
would be impossible to live more than
half an hour in the icy waters of the
lake, Jim and Frank every now and then
climbed into the boat, returning to the
water again after few minutes rest.
Night came on and for sixteen hours the
boys swan, bailed and hoped for assist
ance. They called for help time and
again, but their voices were lost in the
roar of the sea. About 4 o'clock in the
morning the boys drifted past light
which they thought indicated a resi-
dence. When they learned minute
later that it was vessel they were in
despair. But they battled on until late
in the morning, when at a point nine
teen miles out in Lake Superior they
were sighted and picked up by a passing
schooner.

WHERE DOES ARTHUR STAND?

Mr. POwtIcrIy Calls on the Head of the
Engineers to Define His Position.
Powderly has written the following
letter to Mr.. Arthur, Grand Chief Engin-
Ger of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers:
There is at present a strike in progress on
the New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad. In this strike is involved prin-
ciple which you cannot afford to ignore, and
the Drin ciple is that of fair play. Many OF
the men on strike are tiremen and belong
not only to the Knights of Labor but to the
brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. They
are manfully COntending for the right to
maintain their organizations. They are
now at a standstill, and in some in
stances their places are being filled
by members of the Brotherhood
Of Locomotive Engineers, who have
stepped down from the fOOtbOard to pick up
the shovels which were stopped by the fire.
men. Are you willing that this should con-
tinue? Are we to understand that this ac-
ton is to receive the sanction Of the organ
izatiOn you represent. The Knights of La
Dor desire to know whore you stand on this
question, for you are authorized to voice
the sentiments of your order. The mem
hers of the various brOtherhOOds of railway
employees are DESTROYS of knowing where
you stand, for on your answer, and we de-
sire that it be a public one, depends the
future of your association
We desire to know where to place it, Shall
it be classed among the organizations OF in
duStry or among the allies of capital! Ii
your members continue to do the work of
firemen we shall know that it is with your
consent, and the future will be plain before
us. We do not ask for your official sane
tion of the strike; we only ask for fair
treatment at your hands, and that we have
a right to expect. The man who takes
the place of another in this contest is
untrue to the cause of organized labor.
The organization which approves of such
conduct must be regarded in the same light,
and we want to know from your own lips
where to assign the Brotherhood of LOcOmo-
tive Engineers in the roster of organizations.
We have asked Of other organizations of
railway employees to take sides with US.
They are responding nobly, and the future
of labor seems to indicate that between US
all there is far better understanding than
ever before, but your voice must be heard
either on the side Of the railway or the men.
Which will it be? remain, very respect
fully, yours,

Tt is not always safe at critical mo-

ing guidance from the passage of
Scripture which the eye may fall upon.
An earnest Christian layman whc was
in the leather business was in great
perplexity not long ago over comp lea
tions in his business. Thinking the
problem over in his Office, from which
he could view in the warehouse piles
of leather and skirs of one sort and an
other. he resolved to try the expedient
commended to him by devout souls of
resorting to the Bible. He happened
to open at the eleventh chapter of He
brews, and the first words his eyes
struck were these: "They went about
in sheepskins and goatskins" He
still believes, however, that the good
book contains piles of comfort and
counsel.
