When the enterprising and public.
spirited citizens OF Chicago subscribed
more money than the people OF any
other city over did in order to give a
worlds fair that should do honor to
America as no other exposition did,
they counted upon the hearty support
OF American laboring men in that great
undertaking, especially since it would
afford profitable employment to hun.
dreds Of thousands oil laborers who
might otherwise remain idle. Strange
ly enough, the management OF the TO-
lumbar Exposition has had to lace a
continuous succession OF labor strikes
from the first shovelful OF dirt to the
driving OF the last nail, and now a gen
eral and simultaneous strike OF all the
labor unions is threatened such as will
prevent the opening OF the fair at the
time appointed. To these strikers it
appears to be OF more consequence that
u non,union man be barred from work
than that the nation shall make an ex-
hibition of its industries,

Mr. Watts, LittIe seheme

MI. O. O. Watts is a very shrewd cam"
paigner. Just now he is making a cam
paign for appointment as United States
district attorney for West Virginia. To
show that some other Democrat should
BIO appointed to that place the INTELLI-
GENcEG dug out his impertinent tele-
gram to President Harrison after the
November election.
This telegram was the first move OF
Mr., Watts in his campaign and was
written by him in tho hope that it
would make plain sailing for him with
President Cleveland. Believing that
President Cleveland respects tho office
no holds and would not approvo of such
a message as Mr.. Watts sent to Presi'
dent Harrison, the INTELLIaENcER
thought it advisable to give new life
and currency to that remarkable pro.
duction OF Mr.. Watts genius.
Mr.. Watts must think that his tele.
gram is hurting him, for he has induced
the Democratic members Of the leglsla-
ture to join in a protest against Repub-
lican~ influences being considered in the
matter of the appointment. Mr.. Elkins
is jumped on as the Republican in par
ticular who wants President Cleveland
to regard the deconcies of the occasion
by appointing someone else.
II Mr.. Elkins is endeavoriuc to do
President Cleveland this service his
action is to be commended by all good
citizens. Mr.. Watts seems to regard
the outlook for him as bad, or he would
not resort to this little scheme OF wire
pulling the legislature in his interest.

The Pennsylvania Troops Trip to WASH

%PrTTsBURdH, Pa, March IAN er-
roneous impression has gone out that
the recent trip OF the national guard OF
Pennsylvania to Washington cost the
state a large sum Of money. The facts
are that the state did not contribute
one cent towards the expenses OF the
visit to the national capitol. In con-
v~ersation with the Associated Press
correspondent Governor Pattison said:
1.-THE trip did not cost the state OF
Pennsylvania Que dollar. The Penn
s"ylyania and Baltimore & Ohio railroads
furnished the transportation Of the en-
tire division OF 7,400 men free, quarters
were given the men in the war and
navy departments by the United States
government and the men supplied
their own subsistence"
The latter statement also reiutes the
reports that the members OF the guard
did not want to attend the inaugura-
tion.

A Lesson From Pennsylvania.

Dempsey and Beatty, convicted OF
poisoning at Homestead, have been
landed in the penitcnIiary to begin the
long confinement OF seven years. 1t is
q pity that these men were 80 far mis-.
led by their interest in the success OF
the memorable strike, so swiftly fol-
lowed by results SO deplorable.
Their fato should be a reminder to
all too Jealous men that 1t does not pay
to carrying their contention beyond the
limits Of the law. Communities may
for Il time suffer gross violations Of law,
but in tho end, which may come quick
ly, as in this case, tho triumph OF the
law comes with certainty and terrible
force.
This is because society must protect
itself or dissolve and give back to every
man his natural right to defend himself
with what weapons ho can command.
1t Is settled now that tho poison argu,
mcnt in tho prosecution OF II strike is
not to DO tolerated in this country.
