The Edgar Thompson Steel Works, Of
which Mr.. Carnegie is the principal own
er, afford an admirable illustration of
| the boasted advantages of Protection to
| the wage-earners, and the sincerity of
the assertion made by protected monop.
olsts that they demand higher duties
merely that they may pay high wages
Mr.. Andrew Carnegie is not only one
Of the chief apostles of Protection, but
he is an ardent admirer of Democracy.
He certainly ought to be, for triumph
ant Democracy" has made him rich at
the expense of good many thousands
of his fellow beings.
1t is unfortunate for his pretention
that higher duties mean for him only
higher wages that there is always
ouble with the workingmen at the
Edgar Thompson Steel Works. Three
! years ago there was an uprising against
the wages paid at that establishment,
and Mr.. Carnegie, with great shrewdness
nd alb tity, reduced wages and bound
lis people by three years agreement.
No 500 Ier have the three years end, d
then the men strike. They demand
higher wages and shorter hours. More
,ver the strikers are not American work
men. They are from that part Of Europ,
where labor is cheapest, and from which
he iron and Goa barons Pennsylvania
ave been importing labor in order to
ieep loNn its price. This friend Of the
American workingman, this prophet of
triumphant Demo racy" that en-
riches him, is not paying wages that are
satisfactory to men who are brought
here to underbd American workingmen.
Mr.. Carnegie has enjoyed for many |
years bounty on some of his materials |
that more than pays the cost Of theil
reduction. He has professed that his
county was for the benefit of labor
Some of his bountes have been reduced, |
but if he would give TO his labor the |
whole of the smallest bounty labor in |
the Edgar Thompson Steel Works would
be much better paid than that of any
handicraft in the world. But the pre-
tense that Mr.. Carnegie divides his labor
S exploded. He has no use for high
priced Americans. He procures his
abor from the poorest peasantry of
Europe, and he pays such wages that
even the imported pauper strikes for
more and resorts to violence to enforce
his demands.-N y World.

AMONG employers the word is com
bination. Trusts, combines, associa-
tions are everywhere springing into
existence among them. Primarily, the
object is increased profit, by fixing
prices of manufacturers and by fore
ing down prices of raw material; but
many of these combinations are band
ing together for the control of labor,
so that by cheapening that they may
secure the highest possible profit.
And what are the workers doing
The greater number of them nothing,
and, of those who organize, too many
are engaged in fighting each other in
stead of the enemy.

Dentists and Chewing Gum.

"Whcn cheming-gum was invented" :"
said prominent specialist an inesti-
mabIc boon was conferred on dentists.
The gum does clean the teeth, it is
true, but it pulls the plugs out of them.
That IS why the dentists like it so. The
Brooklyn man who has made Il fortune
out oi chewing-gum was trying to dis
cover IN the juice OF the Mexican tree
he now uses for this gum substitute
of India rubber. His substitute was a
failure. Somebody gave him the idea
OF providing idle jaws with something
to c.ew on. and 10! it all turned to gold. =

suing the policy they outlined in their

To the average citizen it seems a.
if the life of the United States soldie,

Gus assault from force whose numbers
they had all along underestimated, gave
way and began a retreat, which threatened
TO be a panic.
A small body of Confederate cavalry was
seen TO turn of TO the left and enter a
grove Of trees about one mile from the con-
fiict. Captain Mason at once suggested TO
Colonel Smart the plan OF cutting them of,
and the Colonel falling into the idea de
tailed him at the head of fifty mounted
men to do the work. Though Luke was an
infantryman II was an easy matter 10
transfer him TO the cavalry, an extra horse
was all that was required.
Away they went at gallop down lane,
circling about a wheatfeld, coming up 70
the grove where the Confederates had Leen
seen to enter. Without any precautions,
however, they plunged pell NELL into the
wood, and soon came upon half dozen
horsemen gathered about wounded officei
who, unable TO go further, was lying on the
ground. Another Confederate officer had
dismounted and was binding up his
wounds.
