Are They Back Numbers ?

Mr.. Gompers, the president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, says that Mr.
Powcerly and his organization, the Knights
of Labor, are back numbers. Mr.. Gompers
evidently intends to be sarcastic. He doesn't
like Mr.. Powderly and Mr.. Powderly
doesn't like Mr.. Gompers.
Their respective organizations have no
love for each other, and the understand
ing appears to be that there is
going to be war between them. Each has
spent great deal of time and money to
build itself up, and now they are going to
do what they can to pull each other down.
They cannot harmonic their differences.
Each thinks the other guilty of double
dealing and treachery. Both are preparing
for long contest which, when it is ended,
will leave both probably in wrecked con-
dition.
Both organizations being composed of
workingmen it seems little strange that
they could not find way to assist each
other. Both pretend to have in view the
same object-the Improvement of the con-
dition of workingmen. Powderly's organ
ization is anti-union and Gompers' is COM

that the two organizations will have to

1t is alleged that the speech of Powderly
at Cooper Union Friday night has caused
the ranks of his organization to close up,
| and strengthened the desire OF the
knights for a life and death strug-

have begun an active canvass to increase
the membership of their assemblies.
| Powderly's speech also has had the effect OF
arousing to renewed activity the members
| of the federation. From now on the two
organizations will, it is expected, devote
more time to devsing ways for destroying
each other than to improving the material
condition of their members

No sooner does man make discovery
calculated to benefit his fellow beings than
there are some ready to decry it, even be-
fore it has been given fair trial This is
the case with some physicians in New York
and elsewhere. They are just now de-
nouncing DIR. Gibier and his Pasteur
methods for curing rabies. They say that
Pasteur and Gibier are propagators of a dis
ease that has no natural existence, and
that they mistake lyssophobia for hydro
phobia. So far DR.. Gibier's treatment of
persons who have been bitten by dogs has
been apparently a success. Opposition act
uated by professional jealousy will in
crease public confidence in the great scen-
fists rather than detract it from them.
These smart doctors who know it all, and
cannot sac another succeed where they fail,
are barking up the wrong tree this time.

The newspapers of the Pacific coast are
lamenting the decrease in transcontinental
travel and the falling off in immigration to
that section of the country. During the
first quarter of this year the arrivals at San
Francisco were only 1852, against 24,7t9
last year. This may in part be accounted
for by the snow blockade on the Sierra, but
April and May, when the snow blockade
was thing of the past, also show a falling

reason" says the San Francisco Can. There
is reason, Notwithstanding that the CAL is
unable or unwilling to give it. The ten

There are no official figures at hand, but it
is safe to say that two-thirds of the in

have studied the advantages of both local.

they find better opportunities for improve

Reeds Tactics.

There is an impression in Washington
/ that it is Speaker Reeds purpose 70 use the
silver bill to pass the federal election bill
that is, that he will make concessions to the
silver men only on condition that they will
vote for the latter bill. There are doubt
less good many representatives who want
free coinage of silver who do not favor the
federal election bill How many of these
representatives would consent to vote for
the outrageous federal election bill in order
to get a free coinage bill passed.
There may be few. Some of the western
representatives are SO anxious for free sill
yer coinage that they would vote for al
most any bill, however dangerous to the
peace Of the country it might be. Many
southern representatives favor free silver
coinage, but il the passage Of a free coinage
silver bill should depend upon the passage of
the federal election bill, they would GER
tainly vote against the silver bill. As much
as they want liberal silver legislation, they
would help defeat it rather than have a
federal election law.
Speaker Reed is in a position to use the
silver bill to help the federal election bill
He knows the position of the Senate on
silver. He therefore can promise that any
concessions the House makes beyond the
bill it passed a couple of weeks ago would
be approved by the Senate. He can
say to the silver men who are opposed
to the federal election bill: "Vote for the
election bill and you shall have liberal
silver bill" and to those who want the
federal election bill. but who are opposed to
free coinage Of silver: Help with the
silver bill and you shall have the federal
election BILL" If he attempts to use such
tactics will he win. He wants the federal
election bill, but he does not want free
free coinage of silver, and will not consent
to it. He may, however, consent to a more
liberal bill than the House originally
passed.
