of differences should be reached through
arbitration" wrote Mr.. Carnegie in 1886.
II would lay it down as maxim that
there is no excuse for a strike or lock-
out until arbitration of differences has
been offered by one party and refused by
the other. | consider that of all the
agencies Immediately available to pre-
vent wasteful and embittering contests
between capital and labor, arbitration is
the most powerful and most beneficial
MI. Prick evidently thinks there was an
excuse, for no arbitration has been pro-
posed. There does not seem to be so
much in another point which is made.
Mr.. Carnegie further said in his article:
''While public sentiment has rightly and
Enthusiastically condemned violence, even
in the form for which there is the most
excuse, | would have the public give due
consideration to the terrible temptation
to which the workingman on strike is
sometimes subjected. To expect that
one dependent upon his daily wage for
the necessaries of life will stand by
peaceably and see a new man employed
in. his stead is to expect much. This
poor man may have wife and children
dependent upon his labor" Were the
men at Homestead poorly paid, and
treated tyranically these words of Mr..
Carnegie might be used against him with
tremendous effect. But the men affected
by the cut down at Homestead were get
ting five or eight sdollars day, or even
more. They are the princes of the labor
ing men of America; and after the cut
down they would still have been highly
paid. The average citizen, who has seen
the scale of wages paid at Homestead
naturally concludes that the men are
rather unreasonable, whether Carnegie
is philanthropist or a quack.
The men were certainly unreasonable
if, as Mr.. Prick states, the payment of
the wages demanded by them would
have forced the mill to do business at a
loss. The best service that arbitration
could do would be to assure the men on
this point. Their common sense would
not let them continue an agitation for
wages which their employers cannot pay.

The Duty on Eggs.
!, the Editor of the Press.


To the Editor of the Press:
A long-winded editorial in yesterdays
Argus asks sneeringly: 'sWhat benefit
has the tariff of five cents to a dozen on
eggs been to the farmers of Maine?o
am only an old farmer.who does not
understand the art Of spreading over sew
eral columns in what can be clearly ex-
pressed in dozen words
Before the Mckinley bill was passed
the average price of eggs in this village
during the summer months was from
to u cents per dozen; often the store
keepers would not take them at any
price because they had an over supply.
Every train that Numbered by our doors
was carrying Canadian eggs for the sup
ply of the large cities-our markets.
Today eggs are 81 cents dozen here,
and the average price through the sum-
mer has been over 16 cents a dozen.
This is not because fewer eggs are now
produced in this vicinity, for 1000 dozen
are now sold in this village for every 50
that were sold four years ago. These
are facts not fine spun theories. Will
the editor of the Argus explain them for

The English elections have made it
certain that Mr. Gladstone will be return
ed to power; but that Lord Salisbury will
be at the head of minority but slightly
smaller than the majority, and far more
cohesive. Of the $40 members compos-
ing the House of Commons, $50 have
been elected, divided between the parties
as follows: Liberals, 266; Nationalist,
65: Parnellites, 9; Conservatives, 266;
Liberal Unionists, A. 1t will be noticed
that the straight-out Liberals, who must
be the backbone of the Gladstouian
forces, aresequalled in number by the
straight-out Conservatives, who are Sails
bury's regulars. 1t is in the auxiliary
forces that Gladstone beats Salisbury.
The Nationalists andeP arnellites, who are
expected to stand by Gladstone, on ac-
count of the home rule issue, outnumber
the Liberal Unionists, who are with Sal
isbury on the same issue. Several facts
embodied in these returns are worthy of
note. The Liberal Unionist number
but A against 70 in the last Parliament.
In spite of the leadership of such men as
Goschen, Chamberlain and Harrington,
and the great influence of the old Wing
aristocracy, this offshoot of the Liberal
party has not held its own. The Parnell-
tie faction is almost wiped out, and the
anti Parnellites have succeeded to the
title of Nationalist. 1t is also significant
that majority of the members elected
in England, Scotland and Wales are
against Home Rule, which means that
Mr.. Gladstone must depend on Irish
votes. On the whole, the situation is
complicated, and portends stormy poll
tics, with the prospect that the House Of
Lords may embitter political relations
still more by putting itself in the way of
the will of the Commons if Home Rule
bill is passed by the latter.

lTwenty-EIghth District.

The fight in this district was between the
notorious Hickory Club and the Re-
organizers, but was confined to the COM
mltteemen, the heads of both tickets being
the same Early in the day the Hickory
Club gave up the fight.
Talk about fairness and harmony" said
the disgusted challenger OF the club, "why,
these ReOTganiZeTs have got that ballOt-box
in their vest pocket and if we pOlled every
vote in the district we would be counted
out"
rs that So" retorted the challenger for
the reOrganizers. We'll, il it wasn't for
these officers the Hickory Club would steal
the ballot-box, and ike enough the house
with it, 1t wouldn't be The first time
they've done it. This is the first time in
years the honest voters OF this district have
had chance"
And so it went until about o'clock,
when the opponents Of the ReOTganizsrs
practically abandoned the field to their OPP
pOnents.
AT the hour for closing the polls there were
less than a dozen men, outside of the Off
GERS, about the place. Nearly every one
who wanted to vote had an opportunity to
get 10 the window, but fully loo men found
their names had been stricken from the
rolls, and although residents Of the district
and Democrats they were not allowed to
vote. The only reason given was that "the
committee" not specified, had found them
guilty of doing Republican work. There
were numerous protests made. but all were
unaYailing. The police had no difficulty in
preserving order.

The ThIrtx-s.oond District.

1t was close fight In the Thir ty-second
between the Reorganizers and the old party.
A total of 437 votes were polled, and from
indications last night the Reorganzers had
the best OF the fight. There was little or 10
excitement in the earlier part of the cleo
ton, the heaviest vote being polled after 6
o'clock. From that hour until the polls
closed the voters formed line half block
in length.
Sergeant Witham, with squad OF Is Off
GERS, was on hand to maintain order, but
there were no disturbances. Two drunken
men were pulled in about o'clock. Alex
Greggalns, the priZe-tghter. was in line for
the Buckleyites, challenging all doubtful
parties and looking after the interests of
the Fire Department. p. J. McElroy, who
heads the reform ticket, was pulling hard

whom were p. T. Dundon. Timothy Dom

MeEroy ticket was printed on greeb paper,
and the ballots were not given out until a
few moments before the polls opened. The
opposition ballot was much larger affair
printed on pink. but the leaders lost no
time in striking off 5000 In green, which
were used to some extent in bewildering the
illiterate voter who depends more on color
than on type.

Special to THE MORNING. CALI

Los ANGELES, May 3-A terrific eXpi
sion occurred in a house on New High street,
in the Spanish quarter, at an early hour
this morning. The building, occupied by
number Of Russians and Italians, is TWO
stories nigh, the front standing on the side
walk. It is in an old part of the city, called
SonoratoUn, and the streets are deserted
after midnight by everybody except the
watchmen and few beiated pedestrians.
About 10 minutes after u o'clock man en-
veloped in heavy coat was seen by the
watchman to walk along the sidewalk. and
when be reached the house he threw some
thing into the front room through win
dow which was open. Nothing was sus-
pected at the time and the man disap-
peared. Five minutes later an explosion
occurred. The oceu pants Of the room ad-
Joining aud upstairs were thrown out OF bed
and several were badly stunned. The
building was considerably wrecked. The
floor where the bomb was thrown was
badly shattered, being cut uD as though an
ak had been used. All tie windows IN the
house were broken and part Of the front
wall was blown out. The adjoining build
ings were also damaged. The report was
heard for several blocks. No one was Sc
riOusly injured. No motive for the throw
ing is known, and there Is no clew to the
perpetrators. In searching the place this
afternoon The police found some fragments

Twenty-Nin,h District.

Dick Creighton and Jim Neal were on
hand promptly at the opening Of the polls
in the Twenty ninth District, an d with them
came gang of heelers fully a hundred
strong. The IL stalwart policemen on duty
at the polls had all they could do to enforce
the order to keep the voters in line and the
crowd away from the polling-place."
About 8 O'Clock Neal suddenly disap-
peared from the polls. and In a short time
the voters Of the Buckley tickets ceased
presenting the pink ballots adopted by that
faction aud handed in tickets identical in
color and size with those. used by the Reor-
GAMERS.
Neal explained the change by saying the
names OF men presenting the pink ballots
had been declared stricken from the rolls,
even after the ballot had been offered and
the names found on the register.
While the largest crowd of the day sur
rounded this polling-place. the police sue
ceeded In keeping order until about 9
O'Clock. when the Neal-Creighton contn-
gent commenced pushing men out of the
line whom they knew were going to vote
against them, it being apparent that the
polls would close before half the voters in
waiting had got chance to cast their bal
lots.
Promptly at 10 o'clock the window was
lowered and Jim Neal as promptly made a
rush for the door leading to the room in
which the committee was at work.
He was stopped BY the police, and then
commenced n wrangle lasting fully an hour,
in which Neal and his crowd made half
dozen attempts to force him into the house.
Neal claimed that despite all that was done
the election had resulted in the defeat Of the
Sutter-Street, Democracy, providing a fair
count OF the ballots could be had, and as
member Of the State Central Committee he
demanded the privilege Of watching the
count.
For a time il looked as il there would be
q small-siZed riot but the police ceafed not
only the sidewalk but the street, scattering
the crowd, aud Neal found il impossible TO
gather them again.
An attempt was made by some Of the
Creighton following TO force their way into
the rear Of the house in which the polling
place was located, but the police frustrated
them. 1t was estimated that over 100 were
refused the privilege of voting, and 100
more shut out by the closing of the polls.
The returns showed that the Reorganizers
had won, but formal protest was entered
by the regulars. Their claim is that but 1879
votes we're cast. the majority of which we're
Tor the Buckley faction. The returns show
2l3 votes for the ReorgaDiZers and 81 for the

A large crowd surrounded the polling
place at Eighth and Howard streets all
afternoon and evening, but except one fight
everything passed off peacefully. Here too
the BOSS" Democracy changed their tickets
to conform with those used by the Re-
organizers and charged both fraud in
refusing to allow men to vote who had the
right, and scheme to count out the
straight Democrats" as they called them
selves. The fight made against the Reor-
ganizers was only a half-hearted one, how
ever, and for an hour before the closing of
the polls hardly challenge was interposed
by either side.
A half hundred voters in line were unable
to reach the ballot-box before the hour Of
closing.
About $50 O'clock Billy Chamberlain, a
reorganZer, was called aside oy one III m
alias Mex johnson. and when he had
walked some distance from the polls was,
he claims, struck in the head with a rock
by Johnson. The latter escaped, the police
being unable to leave the crowd to pursue
him.
