In the case Of the New York Central
strike the EVENING JOURNAL took the
position that the men were right in de-
handing TO know the reason for the
discharge of their fellow workmen,
but that they were wrong
in not exhsusting every other method Of
redress before applying the extreme,
dangerous and often hurtful strike
method. The event has showed that
they struck without sufficient cause and
without securing the assistance, OF those,
without whose assistance the strike
was sure to be failure Strikes must
not be insugurated for spite, but for a

THERE was Sag riot in P3ttsburg
yesterday between the German bakers
and tine Junior Order of the United
American Mechanics which does not re
flect any credit on those concerned in the
riot or on the super loyal city Of Pitts
burg. The bakers carried German flag
which the Americans, apparently consid-
ering it q menace TO She liberties
Of this country, captured after
fight and tore into shreds.
The circumstance Is notable, chiefly, as
showing that turbulent elements exist
even in that elysium of political peace
the State Of Pennsylvania. There are
not two races placed in political rivalry
Intensified by those corrupt demagogues
called carpet-baggers, who have no inter
est in the commonwealth except in GREAT
ing disturbances, as is tho casein Arkansas.
If it is easy TO find causes for riots in
Pennsylvania, how much easier where
there are two races and the fire-brsnd Of
the corrupt and reckless carpst-baggsl
to influence them against each other. II

The remark Of King David in regard to
all men being liars, appears to have
been uttered just after reading the

prophecy in reference to Herod's

what little sum he demanded from
each man to pay the Roman soldiers for
supporting the beautiful government
