MISTAKES TIE COMPLAINT.

M4D4 A66O 4h0 OOmL 9A4HAs
We are sorry TO see 30 much spleen mani
tested BY some of our good brethren
Of the northwest. Bro. Vincent Of the Non.
Conformist, Bro. McLallin Of the Topeka
ADVOCATE, and Bro. Norton of the Sentinel,
all need little vacation to restore them to
their wontsd good humor. They have all
had q severe attack OF prejudi'e and it got
a little the best Of them. Come down to
Texas, brethren, and take jaunt over the
broad prsiries of the Lone Star state and
you will become go expanded physically,
politically and fraternslly that you won't
recognize the old channel in which you once
moved S utbern Mercury, D cember Is.
The Mercury entirely mistakes the
nature of the case and hence its, pre-
scription is inspplicable. The case
is not one of prejudice or spleen, but
of utter detestation of hypocrisy and
treachery. Neither the Mercury nor
any other paper can explain the con-
duct of DR.. Macune and his associates
upon any other hypothesis, and our
good southern brethren can hardly
expect us to forbear when we believe
one who has been so honored and
trusted has betrayed us. We have
no prejudice against the people OF
the south. We number many of them
with whom we have met and mingled
in our councils and conventions
among our warmest friends. We are
in no wise influenced by sectionalism,
Traitors deserve the fate of their
tribe wherever they may be found.
We have some of them in Kansas and
the ADVOCATE has not failed to put
the proper brand on them whenever
they have been discovered. 1t is not
because DR.. Macune Is a southern
man that we have exposed his vii
lainy, but it Is simply because he is
a villain, and we have some other
evidences of his crookedness beside
those of recent date. We may have
occasion to use them in due time.
In our Judgment, if the broad prai'
ries of Texas are capable of accom-
plishing such wonderful transforms
tions as the Mercury indicates, they
should be potent enough to remove
the scales from the eyes of Bro. Park
so that he could see corruption and
treachery where they are as notori'
ously apparent as in this case. And
by the way, did not Bro. Park get
little bilious from "a cross-eyed view
of the character and objects of the
Industrial Legion, and the motives
of the men who organized it? Take
a "jaunt" brother, over those beau
tlful Texas prairles and see what Of
feet it has on You. If it is good We
may accept your invitation to take
another one with you.

It will be remembered that soon
after the Homestead lockout, the AD-
vooATE stated in an editorial upon the
subject, that plutocracy has deter
mined upon the extinction of organ
lied labor in America. The Home
stead lockout was the first effective
movement on this line, and as re-
suit of it the Homestead mills will
finally be operated by non-union men.
It would not do to inaugurate gen.
eral movement all along the line at
one time. This would paralyze busi-
ness in the entire country, hence the
organizations are to be taken in de-
tail and literally wiped out of exist
ence.
One of the reasons why every strike
is failure is because it is local in its
character, and limited to compare
lively few men. Their places are
readily filed from the horde of idlers
that our industrial system has pro-
vided for just such emergencies. 1t IS
strange that laboring men cannot see
that it has been the policy of the cor
porations, as a preliminary stepln the
plan to control labor, to provide this
idle host from which to draw recruits
in time of need. This accomplished,
whenever a strike occurs, the places
Of the strikers are simply filed from
this seemingly inexhaustlble source,
and that ends the strike There
might be much more prospect Of sue
cess if the labor organizations were
bound together by closer ties, and if
all could act in concert for the good
Of each. If, when a strike was
deemed necessary by one of the labor
organizations, the entire force of or
ganized labor throughout the country
would stand at its back and enforce
its demands, even to the extent of
universal strike that would totally
paralyze business, there might be
some prospect Of success; but in
asmuch as every strike Is local and
limited to a few men, 1t amounts only
to an exhibition of supreme folly
which simply renders the labor or
carnations ridiculous.
Corporations and even large indi-
vidual manufacturers have taken the
hint from the failure Of strikes through
this cause. They see in the lack of
col usion, and the failure of the various
organizations to support each other,
the weak point at which to strike, and
it has evidently been determined to
take them in detail and destroy them.

An Allegheny Man Seeks Revenge After q
Family Quarrel.
Joel Crawford, of No. Manhattan
street, Allegheny, was arrested yesterday
on charge of arson. Late Monday night
he went home intoxicated and began quar-
reliDg with his wife. Becoming very angry
he rushed down stairs into the cellar, and
securing hatchet he commenced to cut the
gas pipe. Having severed the pipe he ig-
nited the gas and an explosion occurred.
This aroused the neighbors, who rushed to
the scene ofthe explosion.
Crawford's wife met them at the door and
explained that her husband was trying to
blow the house up. Two men entered the
cellar, and. after q struggle, overpowered
Crawford, but he broke away and escaped
and was not captured until yesterday. In
the meantime an alarm had been sounded,
and on the arrival of the engines the fire
was easily extinguished. No other reason
is assigned for the deed than that Crawford
had been on a protracted spree of several
months and was temporarily insane.

LEssENINa THE COST.

Green Bottle Manufacturers Considering
Mammoth Combination.
There has been quiet movement on foot
for some time past among the green bottle
manufacturers of this city for the purpose
of organizing a combination similar to the
United States Glass Company. The plans of
this combination, if successful, will differ
from the new company in one respect.
Instead of operating the plants now owned
by those interested in the new scheme, it is
the intention to dispose of the different pot
furnaces now being operated and in their
place erect q number of continuous melting
tanks. In this movement alone the manu-
facturers will be enabled to considerably
lessen the cost of production.
Mr. Thomas Wightman, whose company,
it is said, is interested In the new venture,
when asked last evening what progress had
been made, said: Several meetings have
already been held, but nothing has been
done outside Of discussing the feasibility of
organizing such company. There is no
truth in the statements that the new COM
pany is all but organized and that the site,
mode of manufacture and other details have
been completed, and a. said before, the
matter is merely being discussed, and SO far
as know nothing has been done toward COM
pleting the deal.'

watched for an opportunity to get an inter
view with the aged priest to give up in
despair. and yesterday the crowd had

money, of which none of them have very

being very poor and could barely raise
sufficient money to pay their fare here.
Father Mollinger is still confined to
his room, but it is thought he will be able
to be out to-day. Father Myers, of Pitts

Father Mollincer's place, but the multitude
was not satisfed-it is Father Mollinger
they want, for in him is their faith.
