arrayed in silks and cottons of the most

With great many of them the first
duty is to take off their boots or shoes.
Small wonder, for half of them are in
the habit of trudging 30 or 80 miles a
day barefooted to and from market,
and the other half, if they do not use
their feet SO hardly, at any rate never
confine them.

Setting Type by Yiro.

Donald Murry, a newspaper man of
Sydney, has invented and patented de-
vice by means of which an operator in
New York, with q keyboard before him
like that of an ordinary typewriter, can
not only produce typewriter copy in
New Orleans, but, it is claimed, can op-
crate typesetting machine here and
deliver his matter thus in lead ready for
the forms. Not only that, but the same
operator, by using number of telegraph
lines, can set up the same copy simulta-
neously in a dozen different places. In
this operation any ordinary currents are
used, such as are capable of being relay
ed and are subject to all conditions Of
ordinary telegraphy. The work can be
done with the same speed as an ordinary
typewriter is operated and dispenses with
all clockwork mechanism, synchronous-
ly moving type wheels and other cum
brous devices. 1t is said to be capable
of manipulating some so different char
acters. Press and Printer.

RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE IN SWIFT
ERLAND.

Word comes TO this country from
Switzerland that Pastor H. p. Holser. the
American representative of the Seventh
Day adventists in central Europe and the
director Of their publishing house in
Basel, is now undergoing a term Of sixty
one days Imprisonment in that city for
allowing work to be done In the office on
sunday. This seems all the more strange
because the Continental Sunday is OBJ
served in Basel, as elsewhere in Europe
from the Adventist printing office is the
SchutZenplatZ, where soldiers parade and
practice target shooting on Sunday. But
they have a law, Ostensibly and designed
~ favoring worl1ingmen. which forbids
ordinary labor on Sunday. Religious
bigotry is able to use this to prevent the
exercise of the conscience.
It is further stated that petty fines were
imposed on the establishment, from time
to time, until the persecution eliminated
in the present sentence. The case was
twice appealed, but it does not rest with
the supreme court in that country to con-
strue law; and though the judges ex-
pressed their sympathy for the defendant
they had no course open to them but to
confirm the sentence OF. the lower courts.

THE PULLMAN REPORT.

The report of the commission appointed
by President Cleveland to investigate the
great strike OF last summer is very val
liable one, and one that ought to be Of
great service in bringing about some inn
portant reforms in our economic system.
The first important point in any question
is to get at the facts. and the commission
seems to have done this very fairy. There
is only one point at which we think its
statement, might have been improved, and
that is where it deals with the motives
of the Pullman company, as follows:
In its statements to the public, which
are in evidence, the company represents
that it's object in ali 1t did was to con-
tinue operations for the benefit of its
workmen and tradespeOple in and about
Pullman and to save the public from the
annoyance of interrupted trave,. The
commission thinks that the evidence shows
that 1t sought to keep running mainly
for its own benefit as a manufacturer,
that its plant might not rust; that its
competitors might not invade its territory;
that it might keep its ears IN repair; that
it might be ready for resumption when
business revived with I've plant ana
competent help, and that its revenue from
it's tenements might continue.
1t would have been perfectly proper to
refer at this point to the fact that Mr..
Pullman paraded the country proclaiming
that ne was a philanthropist who had
taken work at a loss in order to keep
his men employed, and that it was proven
by his own books that the reductions made
in the wages of the men who made the
IN,
price Of the cars, so that the company
actually made more money than in or
binary contracts Aside from this the
general meanness of the Pullman COM
pany is very fully and fairly shown, and
it is also found that there was no violence
or destruction of property whatever at
Pullman from May IL, when the strike
began, TO July 3, when soldiers were
1t is noteworthy also that the commission
exonerates the leaders of the sympathetic
strike from the violence and destruction
of property. as follows:
There is no evidence before the COM
mission that the officers of the American
railway union at any time participated in
or advised intimidation, violence or de-
struction of property. They knew and
fully appreciated that as soon as mobs
ruled the organized forces Of society
would crush the mobs and al responsible
for them in the remo,est degree, and that
this meant defeat. The attacks upon cor
porations and monopolies by the leaders
in their speeches are similar TO those to
be found in the magazines and Industrial
works Of the day From the testimony
it is fair to conclude that strikers We're
concerned in the outrages against law and
order, although the number was undOubt-
eddy small as compared with the whole
number out
At the same time the commission fully
declares the necessity of sending troops
to suppress the mob violence that arose,
and the requirement Of the national law

that the troops should be sent. And it
also recognizes that the condition which
made necessary the sending OF the troops
was forced by the obstinacy Of the Pull
man company and the General managers
association Of the railroads. 1t says:
The policy of both the Pullman COM
pany and the railway managers assOcia-
ton in reference to applications TO arbi-
trace c-oSed the door 10 al attempts al
Cancellation and settlement Of differences.
The commission is impressed with the be-
lief, by the evidence and by the attendant
circumstances as disclosed. that a differ
ent policy would nave prevented the .OSS
Of life and great JOSS Of property and
wages occasioned by the strike.
The commission fully exposes the il
Legality of the General managers associa-
ton. and its usurpation of powers not
granted by the charters Of the twenty-four
railroads represented in it. And it de-
nounces this Combination Of capital"
roundly:
The association is an illustration Of the
persistent and shrewdly devised pans Of
corporations to overreach their limitations
and TO usurp indirectly powers and rights
not contemplated in their charters and
legislatures. An extension Of this asso-
ciatiOn as above suggested and the pro-
posed legaliZation Of pooling would re-
suit in an aggregation Of power and capt.
tai dangerous 10 the people and their lib
ert.e5 as well as to employees and their
rights. The question would then certainly
arise to which shall control the gov
eminent or the railroads, and the end
would inevitably be government owner
ship. Unless ready for that result and all
that it implies, the government must re-
strain corporations within the law and
prevent them from forming unlawful and
dangerous combinations.
The refusal Of the General managers
association to recognize and del. with
such a combination of labor as the Amer-
can railway union seems arrogant and alb
surd when we consider its standing be-
fore the law. its assumptions and its past
and obviously contemplated future ac-
ton.
These findings show very clearly where
the fault in this controversy was chiefly
located. and they show also he hopeless
ness Of the strike on large scale as
remedy for the wrongs Of labor. It is
practically out Of the question TO prevent
violence and law.essness following any
large strike. and especially a railroad
strike. It is equally out of the question
to prevent the suppression Of that VIC
.ence and lawlessness by the officials re-
spOnsible for the preservation Of the
peace. This necessarily Involves The main
tenance of the employers in their position,
however unreasonable it may be, and the
operation of the roads or other industries
by "scab" labor. In other words the
strike can be no remedy on a large scale
without some tribunal for the settlement of
the controversy. or downright revolution.
The interest of the workingman, there
fore. calls him at once - a consideration
Of such other remedies as may be sug-
eaStpd
