A great strike is now in progress
in the northwest and it is rapidly
spreading. Railroad business is
practically suspended and numerous
manufacturing establishments have
been forced to shut down owing to
their inability to I'll orders.
The trouble originated at Pullman,
the company operating the Pullman
Palace cars having on account OF
the dullness of times to reduce the
wages of their Employees, who re-
fused to longer accept said reduction
and proceeded to strike.
In this they were supported by tie
Auembers of the American Railway
IRON and thousands of railway EN-
ployees are thereby involved.
The men will strike and Others
will refuse to strike, but when nav
men are employed, they are termed
"scabs" and they decline to work
with them.
The misunderstanding has as
sumed alarming proportions, and
all branches of business are being
affected thereby.

American novel by Sanda. We have
perused the pages of this work with
a steadily increasing interest. 1t
deals with the north and the hero is
resident of Detroit, Mich. A love
story is skilliully interviewer, while
race prejudice as It exists in that sec

Not until Part II is reached does
one become fully aware of the purpo-
ses, for which the book was written.
Then the scene is changed and the

Capt. HTLL-MALE, Grand Master
of England said he could not under
stand this color-qUestion.
If he lived I'm these southern states
and associated with colored folks as
much as he did upon the occasion OF
his recent visit, he would understand
it. The protecting folds of the En-
gllsh flag would be called for more
than once to shield him from the IN
ry of southern mobs, who would be
anxious to drum him out of the
country.
1t is to be regretted that he did
not proceed further South.

Conductor I. A. GOODMAN at Cliff

and caused almost endless comment
with reference to condition of af

and favorably known as a public

That he had done much to develop
the latent resources of Virginia goes
without question.
He was capitalist and had the

The tragedy occurred at Clifton

nearly more than two years ago
three colored men were lynched by a
lawless mob.

another direction.

the north to n full real zation of the

murder of this man who was fore

FRIDAY, JUNE s, 1894.

THERE is feeling of unrest in both
business and political circles. The
farmer is restless and unsatistied with
wool at 10 cents per pound and wheat
at so cents per bushel. The average
business man after year of dull, UNI
profitable business can see nothing
inviting ahead of him. People are apt
TO attribute the hard times and present
stagnation in all business circles to
political nature and the drift of senti-
ment is largely toward the Republican
party. The people are close observers
of men and no man who is not in touch
with the progressive spirit of the times
can hope to succeed as candidate for
any Office. Witness! Mr.. Pingree was
elected Mayor of Detroit last fall by
5000 majority, while the Republican
candidate for Congress was turned
down by 1000 majority. Why? Simply
because Mr.. Pingree had carried out
reforms in behalf of the people and
was in touch with them, while the can
didate for Congress did not represent
progressive element. The history of
politics in the eth District for the last
ten years has been series of plumbers
and mistakes. 1t seems to us that it
would be political suicide to go back
and nominate this year any of the de-
feated candidates for Congress of for
mer years. Is there any good reason
for believing that a candidate who ran
over |, COO votes behind the State ticket
in 1888 could do any better in 1894?
Do we as Republicans want candidate
with the following record? lst. As one
of the principals in a fractional fight in
which the Republican party Of this
District was torn in pieces. I'd. Hold
ing the best paying Federal offices in
the eth District for about 25years. 3D..
Defeat as the Republican candidate
for Congress in 1888, running over l 900
votes behind the State ticket. Does it
not seem in all fairness, reasonable and
right, that our candidate should give
the Republican party a chance? We
can win IN the eth District, but with
any of the mistakes of former years
repeated, we invite almost certain de-
feat.

The man VINO is too conservative in
his advertising expenditures fOrgets
that the struggle is for prominence,
and tries TO keep the outlay down to
the same level as that of others about
him, when if he increased his outlay to
make it appear remarkable, it would
be the additional portion that would
count more than the original sum- Just
as with the man seven feet high, 1t is
the seventh foot which attracts the at
tention of every observer, rather than
the first six, which without the seventh
would make him only an ordinary
mortal.

nounce that the publisher of the Inter

don't you give Mr.. Soandso hades
lie deserves il. You newspapermen
are afraid to do your duty. 1t is a
duty you owe the public to show up
such men," Their idea seems to be
that the editor of paper is the person
who should bear all the burden of
"showing up" people whom they con-
ceive, either rightly or wrongly as do
ing things they ought not to do. Or in
bowling down corporations or classes
of people with whom they differed rs
to methods or plans pursued; 1t is a
difficult thing for some people to un-
derstand that newspapers are not per-
sonal organs, but are published for the
public good. How long would one OF
these very persons who growl ut the
editor take the paper should it be run
as they suggest, as personal mouth
