Crushed by a Northern Pacific Train.

death Of q man whose name may ever

night in the railroad yards. Tie
Northern Pacific train drawn by en-
giI!e No. e, WAS sweeping around the
curve near Banks avenue, and had
nearly reached that crossing when the
engineer espied man walking u;icon-
edly on the track toward the approach
ing train. AS quickly as possible he
sprang to the throttle and reversed
the train, but he was too late, and the
engine and the first car passed over
the body Of the unfortunate unknown
The remains which were Immediately
taken charge of by the railroad men,
were those apparently past middle

plexion and hair somewhat streaked

cots, the back of his head being crush
ed almost to pulp and his left leg
being bodily manaled. Near the body
was found broken bottle. which had
evidently contained whisky.
The only clue to his Identification
was a letter found in one OF his coat
pockets. 1t was dated at Clouquet,
July Is. 1890. and was addressed to

Workmen's advocate. (New Haven, Conn.) 1883-1891, 1890-08-30
IRON WAGES.

In compliance with an act of Congress
passed two years ago, Commissioner
Wright, of the National Bureau of Labor
Statistics, has undertaken to collect in
formation tending to show the compar-
alive cost of producing various articles
in this and other countries The first
result of his inquiry is embodied in
preliminary statement, just published,
relating to pig iron, steel ingots and
steel rails, coal, coke, iron ore and
limestone. This is to be followed by
reports on textile fabrics, glass and
earthenware.
So much has been said and written for
a number of years on behalf of our iron
and steel kings concerning the much
higher" cost of labor in this country,
that the statement in question would
not fail TO cause extraordinary surprise
among the masses of the people if it
We're heralded with as much vigor as
was the untruth which it now lays
bare.
If we take, for instance, the steel rail
industry, in which Carnegie and few
other monopolists have amassed pro
digious wealth. we find that the labor
employed received $3.50 per ton in this
country as against sl.37 in England.
Considering the higher cost here of rent
and clothing, it is safe to say that the
small difference of II cents per ton in
favor Of the American iron worker is
Workmen's advocate. (New Haven, Conn.) 1883-1891, 1890-08-30
THE STRIKE.

The daily papers throughout the coun-
try have published such extensive
reports of the railroad strike, including
Powderlys reply to Webb and the
declaration of impotency issued by the
Grand Council, that we need not here
for the time being, review the events of
this momentous struggle. A few sug-
gestions as to what they teach may
however, prove appropriate.
In the first place, we reiterate our
assertion that the time is past when Or
ganized Labor could cope with the rail
way power on purely economic ground
The line of battle must be extended to
the political field.
In the second place, a complete change
is necessary in the organization and
methods of the large bodies directly
concerned in the railway industry.
Their self isolation must cease and a
democratic system must take the place
of the despotic regime under whi2h they
are conducted, or their successive ex
tinguishment is only a matter of time
1t cannot be doubted that the striking
employees of the n. y. Central have on
this occasion the hearty sympathy of all
honest and intelligent workers; not,
perhaps, as Knights of Labor. but as
men who bravely maintained their
sacred right to organize and nobly gave
up their means of life in the defense of
their fellows. Had a vote been taken
among the firemen, switchmen, conduc.
tors and tfainmen who respectively
compose the four bodies represented in
Workmen's advocate. (New Haven, Conn.) 1883-1891, 1890-08-30

1t will be observed that in the above
number are included 1874, 900 machinists,
carpenters and other shopmen employed
in the building and repairing of cars,
engines, ETC.: also, number of clerks
say 3,000-connected with the machine
shops, and nearly 5000 general officers;
so that the labor force employed in the
actual work of railroad transportation
is only about $50, 900 men. Mark. fur
thermore. that a considerable proper
ton of these-probably not less than
one-thlrd-are employed only part of
the time; for recent investigation of
the National Labor Bureau, as pre-.
viously stated in these columns, showed
that "227 900 men did the work that
10000 could have done if employed all
the time"
Compared with this the 10, SEQ miles
of railroad in England gave in 1888 en-

THE CHINESE AND THE JAP.
ANESE.

GEORGE c. STIEBELING, NJ. D.

The primitive ancestors of the Chi
nese probably originated on the Kuen
Lun mountains in the Northwest of
China. from whence they emigrated
down to the Southeast, attracted by
its fertile plains, which they conquered
and occupied. driving away the native
inhabitants of the brown race, a few
surviving descendants of whom called
Miaotre, are still existing to-day in the
savage state on the mountains of South
China. In those places they settled and
