Grind Master Sweeney who conducted
the switchmen's strike, will find silence
at this juncture to be more profitable
for him than talking. Perhaps the
switchmen's strike would have failed if
it had been conducted with the highest
skill and judgment. But as matter of
fact neither of these qualities was dis
played in its management, On the other
hand it was one of the most wretchedly
managed strikes on record. The strikers
from the very first assumed the role of
public enemies. Their idea seems to
have been that by creating reign of ter
Tor they might SO brighten the public
that they would, in self defence, bring
pressure enough upon the railroad COM
panies to compel them to submit to the
strikers demands. Of course if they
had had head conductor of their
strike, with particle of discernment, he
would have seen, what Mr.. Sweeney sees
now, that a few hundred men could not
fight the great State New York with any
hope of success. Yet this is really what
they undertook to do. That the man
who managed the strike did not see it
ought to discredit him forever as con-
ductor Of such an affair; and it probably
will, in spite of all the explanation which
he may see fit to offer.

A Bangor despatch to the Boston
Globe says:
Congressman Thomas B. Reed accom-
plished feat here tonight which few
public men in this country could have
done when in the midst of the heaviest
storm of the season he drew an audience
into Norombega Hall which fairly packed
that historic old building to hear him
present in his inimitable manner the po-
litical issues of the campaign.
Mr. Reed had never addressed meet
ing or scarcely ventured inside the limits
of Bangor since reaching his fullest de-
gree of prominence in national affairs,
and therefore no small element of curl
osity entered into the foundation of the
general desire to see and hear him to-
night.
The galleries were filled with large
percentage of ladies who had braved the
pouring rain, and altogether the demon
stration was a personal tribute to Mr..
Reed which must have proven very graft
fying.

While there is no cause for scare
there undoubtedly do exist good reasons
for apprehending that the cholera may
reach our shores. and therefore reason
for taking extraordinary precautions.
Hamburg where the disease is raging
with great violence is one of the principal
ports of Europe and is in constant COM
munication with our larger coast cities.
There is great danger that the seeds of
the disease will be brought to our shores
by vessels arriving from that port. A
vigorous quarintine will do much to keep
them from being brought ashore, but our
precautions should not stop there. All
our seaport cities should be put in the
best sanitary condition, so that the
disease may not find congenial soil.
Dirty streets and polluted water are ex-
tremely potent agencies in the propoga-
ton Of the cholera.

The letter of Chief Justice Somerby, of
the Iron Hall, in which he alleged that it
cost big sum to get through the Maine
legislature an act permitting the Order
to do business in Maine, is being paraded
in some newspapers as evidence that
Maine legislators were bribed. That, of
course, is possible Interpretation, and
perhaps it is the one that Mr.. Somer-
by wanted given it. But to our mind it
is altogether more probable that most of
the money went to benefit certain men,
bers of the Order, and that comparatively
little of it was expended for the benefit
of the Order itself. At any rate the let
ter constitutes a very insignificant foun-
dation for a charge of bribery.

ZION.
REV. DIR. PLUMLEY.

o hill of God, in days of old
Upon thy sunny height
Rose castle strong and fortress bold.
Impregnable and bright;
On thee, King Dayid's palace walls,
Uplift the royal dome,
Gods altar fire to worship calls,
The Ark finds fitting home.
While sacred song and fervent prayer
Watt upward to the skies,
With fragrant incense offered there,
And holy sacrifice.
Sunny thy name, for glad sunshine
FURNISHED thy slopes so bright,
And far more glad, thy Sun divine
Shed on thee lOvelier light.
But grand and glorious as thou art,
An everlasting hill,
Another Zion claimed the heart,
Dearer and n0bler still.
Thither we come, with pilgrim feet,
i From earth's regrets and tears,
And her blestIheight with rapture greet
Through all the circling years.
Joy of the earth, we felt each tower.
Each palace wistful yiew,.
We mark each bulwark clad in power,
And faith and hope renew;
For in her palaces Is known
Our God, Our Refuge tried,
Our Sanctuary, our High Throne,
ForevermOre our Guide.

The investigation into the strike of the
Buffalo switchmen which has just been be-
gun by the New York State Board of Arbi-
tration is bringing out some evidence
which does not reflect very favorably on
the railroad company. To evade the ten
hour law passed by the last New York
legislature the company resorted to the
expedient of hiring the switchmen by
the hour instead of by the day, and they
fixed the rate of pay SO that they could
not earn SO much as under the old ar
rangement unless they worked more
hours. Tasks seem to have been put
upon the men which no human being
could long endure. Some of them were
compelled to work twelve hours each
day, no regular time was given them for
their meals, several of the men testifying
that they 'snatched a bite whenever they
COULD The investigation is not con-
cluded but it has proceeded far enough
to show that the switchmen had some
very substantial grounds of complaint.
The blunder they made was in not max
ing their grievance known in the public,
by plain statement of the facts in the
newspapers. Had they done that and
refrained from violence they would in all
probability have created public sympa-
thy in their behalf that would not have
been without effect upon the railroad
companies. They apparently had a good
case, but they threw it away by foolish
management,

1t appears from the Argus that Mar
shall SWEET does not enforce the liquor
law because he has enough to do to pro-
tect the public peace and the property of
the citizens, without hunting after rum
holes. When he becomes sheriff and has
the property and persons of the whole
county to protect of course he will have
a bigger excuse for not hunting after
rum holes.
The Portland daily press., 1892-08-27

The Argus yesterday pointed out how
the farmer was being ruined by protec-
ton, and in the course of it's article
alleged that the value of Maine farms had
decreased between 1870 and 1880 81 ,000,-
600, being 800, 900, 900 in the former year,
and $SS, 900. 900 in the latter. The source
of these statistics is not given. They do
not agree with the United States cen
sus, which places the value of Maine
farms in 1870 as $1O2, 1861, 951, and MISS
as $1O2, 1851, 615-an apparent decrease of
100000. This decrease was, however,
apparent only, as will be seen by the fol-
lowing paragraph from the introduction
to the census volume containing these
statistics:
The value Of the farms in the United States
as returned in 1870 was 50 ,292, 803, 861. Were
Ss pe sod e woud " yHed about e
900 as the gold value of the farms Of the United
States at that date. But it is a familiar feature
Of paper money mutations that the value ao OF ea
gins to rise so early or continues to rise SO long
as the prices of commodities. Were we to as,
sumo the average enhancement of value OF all
eilO VI oliC SesoV "So' iiOA
and south, in 1870 by reason OF the depreeia-
ton of the currency, to have been l21s per
cent, being one-half the premiums on gold, we
should have as their true gold value about
$3.50, 100000. believe that good
deal of statistical evidence might be presented
to show that that enhancement was not far
from one-haf that of gold.
twill be seen therefore that the value of
farm property in 1870 was estimated on a
currency basis and in 1880 ON gold basis
and that 124 per cent must be deducted
from the value as reported in 1870 to get
at the gold value. That amounts to
over 100000. So the value of farms
in 1870 on the same basis as in 1880 was
about 800, OOO, 900 instead of $102,000,0 900.
So that really the value of Maine farms
from 1870 to 1880 did actually increase
more than $1O,000,0O0, Therefore the
Argus's argument that because the value
of Maine farms had declined protection
mad been an injury to the farmers, falls
to the ground, because its main premise
is false.
