AFAyoRABLE CONDITION.

One of the cheering facts noticeable in
the industrial world at this time is the
absence of labor troubles. For two or
three years things seemed to be going
from bad to worse, and lab ring classes
were kept in a state of continual ferment,
either by their own efforts to raise wages
or reduce hours, or by the efforts of en-
ployers to reduce wages and lengthen
hours. By what means this favorable
change has been brought about matters
little. 1t may be that labor has become
more discreet and intelligent in its de-
mands or that capital has become more
reasonable and just. Both sides may
come to realization that the peaceful
way is the best, and that war means loss
and ruin.
Now that the storm Of the Homestead
riot has cleared away there is an oppor-
tunity to quietly attack the problem of
checking such disturbances in the future.
The best remedy may be found in the
establishment Of permanent boards Of
arbitration for the different trades, such
as are common in France, and have been
established in the north of England.
Both employers and employees are repre-
sented on these boards and their decisions
bind both sides to any labor controversy.
1t is hoped that this system may be in
troduced in America at no distant day,
and once tried there can be little doubt
that it would rapidly grow in favor and
finally become firmly established, as it
could not fail to obviate much of the
the man who earns and the man who
pays wages.

KANSAS WOMEN URGED TO VOTE.

MRS. LAURA NJ. JOINS, president of
the Kansas equal suffrage association,
has returned from her eastern tour long
enough to issue an appeal to her fellow
citizens and urge all women to give their
earnest attention to the approaching
election in that state. According to a
law passed by the Kansas legislature of
1897, women may vote in municipal
affairs. Mrs. JOHNS admits that the vot-
ing of women has not worked the great
reform that was expected, and says in her
address:
City government is not yet IDEAL and it's fail
ure along the moral side is sad. Even our
small cities do not furnish safe environments
for the young, but are full of dangers to girls
and pitfalls for the feet of boys. If the school
board is not what you feel it ought to be, if
the council is careless of the moral interests
OF your city, if the police power winks at vice
and vicious places, your one remedy is to elect
men who are in sympathy with your way of
thinking on these things. If such men are not
elected you are to blame just so far as you are
neglectful of your duty in the matter.
IL VIII De remembered tnat at the last
city election at Wichita the women of
the town turned out and voted for their
choice, while decent women, with wo-
manly instincts, remained at home. So
it was in other places in Kansas, and so
it will generally be. Mrs JOINS, ambi-
tious as she is, issues appeals and makes
speeches, but the women of Kansas for
the most part entrust the ballot box and
city government to their husbands and
fathers and brothers

Industrial Activity in the South.
manufacturers Record !

| Manufacturers Record
The industrial record of the South for
| the first three months Of 1893 shows a
very marked revival of activity in the
establishment of new industries and the
extension and improvement Of old ones.
Since January / there have been estab-
lshed in the southern states 71S rev in
621 during the last quarter of 1892 an in
crease of 81, or over Is per cent. During
the third quarter of last year the number
of new enterprises was 564, so that the
increase in six months has been nearly %
per cent.
These figures illustrate in a striking
manner the recuperative power Of the
South and the rapidity with which that
section is regaining its normal condition.
The depressing influences of the past two
years have we'll nigh disappeared, and
conditions are conducive to growth in
every direction. 1t will be observed that
these figures embrace only legitimate in
dustrial enterprises, and that no account
has been taken of speculative ventures.
The growth as shown by these figures
represents substantial progress along
those lines of industry that impart the
most stability and permanency to the
South.
Examining these figures in detail it
will be seen that the most marked in
crease has taken place in the establish
ment of industries dependent upon cot
ton. Forty ne" textiles manufacturing
companies Chiefly cotton) have been or,
ganized during the past three months, as
compared with twenty in the preceding
quarter. Under the stimulus of high
prices for cotton seed products the mum.
Der of cotton Oil mills has increased from
six during the last three months of 1892
to twenty-nine during the past quarter.
The fruit and vegetable canning indus
try also has been undergoing rapid de
velOpment, as indicated by the OrganiZa
ton of twenty-siX new concerns in the
last three months. Lumber and wood
working industries, always actively
progressing, also show large increase,
the new plants in the last quarter being
208 in number, against III for the pre-
ceding three months
Business conditions in the south un-
questionably are better now that at any
time during the past two years, and the
Improvement is particularly noticeable in
all industrial lines.

who arrived this week in New York
and their fearful disclosures of what is
done in Russian prisons awaken new in.
terest in that regard No one can read
Of these brutal foggings of delicate
women, these cold -blooded massacres of
helpless prisoners, without an involun-
tary shudder. That such things should
be possible in this nineteenth century, in
a country considered civilized, is some.
thing almost incomprehensible. They
throw curious light on the actual de
gree Of civilization which the empire of
the "white car" has attained. Scratch
a Russian and find Tartar" is an old
saying, and evidently still a true one
Once get beneath the superficial varnish
Of the Russian empire, and you find the
Tartar spirit in full sway. Side by side
with the material improvements of the
nineteenth century the prejudices and
modes of thought of the dark ages are
found prevailing. Liberty of person or
even Of thought is unknown Every as
piratiOn toward higher things is sternly
represscd by an autOcratiC power. There
is no mercy for the weak, and no refuge

The publicity given 10 the recent oc-
currences will doubtless prove a great
gain in the cause Of humanity. We may
look to see an earnest protest made by
the powers of Europe at no distant day
against the horrible inhumanites now

more these inhumanities are brought to
light and spread before the world in all

A Cincinnati, Ohio, dispatch of the
9Th says: W. B. DUNCAN, of Sioux Falls,
S. D., shot himself Sunday night because
Miss Clarke, of Milwaukee, who is visit
ing friends in the suburb Of Loveland,
would not see him. Tonight DUNCAN is
still alive, but there is little hope OF his
recovery. He is at the residence of Mrs.
FRANKIE, and claims he shot himself acct
denta'ly. He is conscious, and willingly
talks of the past and his business affairs.
He undoubtedly meant to do some harm
to Miss Clarke, and then take his own
life, as it is understood that he had let
ters written to that effect. He claims
that he lost several thousand dollars in a
business deal in Chicago, which almost
broke him up. He left Chicago and went
to Sioux Falls, s. d., where he estab-
lished a large wholesale fruit house. His
parents live in Ottumwa, 10. Miss
Clarke at one time was engaged to be
married to DUNCAN, when she was only
II years of age.
