From The State, (St. Paul, MIMI
Pennsylvania has been the scene with
in the past few days of atrocities that
would shame the devilism of the Irish
landlords.
The bsrons Of the coke monopoly have
been dragging from their homes the star
wing crew whose bowed backs support
the luxurious coal and iron lords Of the
keystone state. Men have been beaten,
women have been shot, crying children
have been thrown, out on the barren hill
sides; In the midst Of natures boundless
treasures of coal and iron, the outcast
children Of earth have sought shelter
from cold and storm In the tents fur
nished by the labor organizations, until
In the midst Of civilization and wealth
there has been established tented field
Of misery, inhabited by the crushed vic
Tins of an Ubiquitous industrial system.
1t 10 true that the victims became in
furiated and that even women fought to
keep shelter for their little ones.
Sherlhs, deputies and Pinkerton thugs
tore the clothing from the mothers
backs, beat them with fists and clubs and
shot them down before their children's
eyes.
All In the name Of the law! To protect
the well being Of society! To secure the
stability Of our beautiful civilization "a
civilization of evictions, q civilization OF
wage slavery, a civilization that fsttens
on manhood, and bedecks itself with the
fruit Of Womanhood's shame, that drives
men TO crime, women to harlotry and
children TO premature death, or barely
granting life, hurls them into awful
abysses Of the social slums of our COM
merclal centers.
A civilization which counts wealth the
supreme blessing and to secure it de-
stroys genius, cofrnpts virtue and stains
with the blood OF innocents the whole
fabric Of government. God help such q
civilization and its sponsorsl

The attention Of our readers is called
to the two advertisements of the Blymyer
Iron Works Co., of Cincinnati, Ohio,
which appear in this issue. Their Victor
and Niles Mills and Cook Evaperstors
for Sugar Cane and Sorghum, have for
many years been looked upon as Stand

much more etfectnally, as well as agreeably,
through the proper excretory channels, by
the use Of Ayers Sarsaparilla.

The city should have a fair price for
whatever service 1t renders. tt,has not
had this from some of the owners Of
water motors, and it now seeks to move
them up. 1t is complained, however,
that the proposed new tariff of charges
is not equitable and that the general
level is too high.
Without expert testimony it is i'm
possible to say whether the complaint
is well founded. The city should fur
nish the service MS cheap as it can with
out loss to itself, and it should endeavor
to treat aH-custolnets alike. Perhaps
the users Of water motors would prefer
meters SO that they may be charged
for what water they use and no more.
Water motors are used for business
purposes where steam would be i'm
practicable, and the city should foster,
not obstruct, oil legitimate business
interests. III. .Eil.sl

The mind of His Royal Highness Of
Wales works slowly. It WINS necessary
to "briugto his attention" the little af-
fair in which he had been engaged at
Tranby Croft; to give him time and
opportunity to "look back on all the
circumstances" OF that remarkable series
of sittings at the, gambling table,
before he could realize that hshad COM
mitted an, Terror Of Judgment"
Several millions Of people not SO high
ly educated as the Prince Of Wales is
supposed to be were keen enough to
take it all in as soon aslthey heard Of it,
and these discovered much more than
the prince did with his better opportu-
mites and his gravor reasons for appre-
ciating the whole truth.
Evidently the error Of Judgment
which Albert Edward now perceives
lies in the fact that he broke the
eleventh commandment, about the only
one which men of his stamp hold So
cred.-Thou shalt not pemit thyself to
be caught. Aside from the possible re-
suits that may come to him by reason
of the exposure, the prince no more re-
grets what he did than he regrets any
other OF the moral lapses into which he
falls as often as occasion presents itself.
No doubt Sir William Gordon Cum
ming would have been glad to Tess up
in this mild way, but he was not of i'm
portance enough to get the chance.

TIC Poochcrs Don't Like 1t,

British Columbians are not at all
pleased with the agreement for a close
seal season entered into by the United
States and Great Britain. They say
that their vessels have been fitted out at
large expense and are on their way to
the fisheries, and that to recall them
would be ruinous.
Be it observed that these are our seal
that arc to be protected, not anything
in which British Columbians have any
right. 1t is as though a burglar, hay
ing provided himself with dark lantern,
jimmy and all the tools Of his craft, were
to complain that the law had ruined
him by laying hold OF him before he
could go on with his cracking.
Those British Columbians are too
sensitive. They should embark in an
honest industry and try the effect OF
that on their state OF mind.

there had been loss OF life, but the de-
