thermore, the manufacturer, the mill
owner or the contractor generally has it
in his power to recover what he loses
by reason of strikes. In tact, the strike
simply suspends his income temporarily;
his returns come later. He suffers only
from delay, the actual loss being small in
deed.
But how is it with the Employed? His
loss IS real and cannot. be made good. If
he strike and remain idle week or a
month he loses week or months pay,
which can never be recovered no matter
how industriously he may labor thereafter.
The money is lost to him forever. The la
borers of New York thus lost during the
five years, by reason of strikes, enough
money to have kept 900 men employed at
fair wages every day for the five years.
Not only did the strikers deprive them
selves, but in many instances they brought
suffering and want to their families.
Strikes are sometimes necessary and I'M
avoidable; oppressed workingmen are
driven to resort to them in order to obtain
their rights or redress for grievances; but
it seems to US that only in extreme cases
where no other course can be followed with
anything like self respect ought there to
be a strike, as the poor striker imposes
npon himself greater injury than he in
fiicts upon his employer.

KEMMLER AGAIN.

1t was an impudent thing to ask the
United States supreme court to step in
and prevent the execution of KEMMLER,
the New York murderer. 1t was impu-
dent, because it was asking the court to
override a tribunal little less dignifed than
itself, and to say that law which the New
York court of appeals had decided was
valid, was unconstitutional 1t was i'm
pudent, because it1was soliciting the su-
preme court to interpose the federal gov
eminent to prevent asovereign state from
carrying into effect its internal police regu-
lations and enforcing its own statutes. We
doubt that the case would ever have gone
to the supreme court had not the court, OF
its own volition, taken Deputy Marshal
kAYLE from the custody of Cali
fornia, and assuming an authority fer
the United States never before exercised
or attempted, discharged the man without
Indictment or trial although aware that he
had killed another. The mischief that that
unwise and uncalled for interference with
the proper and legitimate course of justice
in state will cause cannot be estimated.
The action at once gave all the people more
exalted ideas of the central government
and lowered in their esteem the Importance
of the state authority; it made men feel
that the republic had been deprived of one
of its most admirable characteristics. and
set thoughtful men to wondering if the
nation as mapped out and established by
the patriot statesmen who were so careful
to govern the rights of the states is now
destined to fail. A year ago there was not a
lawyer in New York who would have en-
tertained for a moment the proposition
that the United States could prevent the
punishment designated by state law of an
offender against the peace of the state.
New York's legislators, judges and LAWYERS
have always regarded the state power and
authority as supreme as to police matters
within New York's borders. The NEAGLE
case, however, was such de-
parture from the course of procedure
since the founding of the nation, as to en-
courage KEMMLER's attorneys to hope they
might induce the federal supreme court to
save his life On Friday that court rem
dered decision denying the writ of error,
and everybody will be glad to know that
the denial was placed on the proper
ground The chief justice said that '.in
order to reverse the judgment this court
would be compelled to hold that the court
of appeals committed an error so gross as
to deprive the prisoner of constitutional
rights. The court has no hesitation in say
ing that it cannot do this"
1t would seem that the murderer's
lawyers have now exhausted the resources
of the law in his behalf, and that further
efforts to prevent his execution by electri-
city will be useless. However, until the
official jury pronounces him dead it will
not do to gamble that he will not die ma
tural death.

COST OF STRIKING.

It should be forceful sermon which the
ureau of labor statistics of New York
breaches in its current report. Itsays that
in the Empire state during the past five
years, employers have lost $4,000, 900 by
strikes, while employees have lost $780,
000. 1t would be stupid person who could
not understand these figures, and would he
not be stubborn one who would not profit
BY thein2 Noniinally, the employers lost
s5.000.000, but their actual losses were very
little. This vast sum is made up largely of
the money that would have been made if
there had been no strikes, and wages and
prices of commodities had remained as
they were at the time of the strikes. Fur
