sympafhles should not deter them from the
discharge of duty in the enforce ment of the
laws. This feeling of sympathy is not for
Debs, it i, not really for the causes which
gave rise to the strike in Chicago, it i be-
cause the large majority of the people of
California have for years been nursing in
dignation at the tyranny of the Southern
Pacific which virtually controls the tran
sportation of that state, which de-
mands and obtains the exorbitant rate
possible to complete monopoly, which has
entered into politics and honeycombed them
with its corruption funds. The present
strike is not logical result of Mr.. Debs'
endeavors but is the outburst of hostility to
railroad tyranny. Righteous Indignation
like this is not always righteous in its ap-
plication. Frequently indeed the storm
bursts at what seems most inopportune
moments. We believe this is true of the stu
alton in California. We believe the strike
in that state to be ill advised, that it must
fail and that should the strikers, by resorting
to acts of lawless violence, come in conflict
with United States troops, they should and
will be forced to yield. But when that is
accomplished the cause should not be over
looked and efforts should not be spared to
purify the source. Indeed, this is not ap-
plicable alone to California. The feeling
of unrest in this country, the conditions
that made possible the great and CORE
spondingly senseless strike, which fortunate
ly seems about over ARE traceable to the cor
rupt dominance of corporate power in legis
latures, an alarming an astounding example
of which is the control which the sugar trust
exercises over the Congress of this country.
The majority of the people Of this country
see this drift of influence, grow indignant
thereat but feel unequal to coping with it
successfully. This feeling Of weakness in
a country like ours is most dangerous.
The people have the power in their own
hands and can change this by concerted,
conservative and persistent effort, but un-
fortunately, are not united in performing
the duty. They nurse their indignation
nevertheless with the probability that in
some unexpected, illogical manner and &C.
casion this storm will burst forth doing
damage to the country and affording lit
tie if any relief. The people need arous-
ing to a sense of their power to enact laws
restraining trusts and monopolies from the
perpetuation of wrongs upon the public and
the necessity of sustained, skilful, patriotic
work to counteract the persistent, insinua-
ting and ever watchful efforts of powerful
combinations actuated solely by greed. Now,
if ever, the respectable man is needed
in politics every day in the year and in
stead of feeling that he is smirching his
manhood by engaging therein should feel
that he is only an apology for a good citi-
zen until he performs his political duties.

il therefore one of the few books of the
kind which may be read with profit. 1t IS
a very strongly written story, and will as
suredly take an enviable place among sue
cessful works of fiction.
The Fairest of the Fair, by Hildegarde
Hawthorne. PIP 29S. Henry Altemus, Phila-
delphia, publisher. Price sl.oo.
Any book from the pen of daughter of
the gifted Julian Hawthorne and the grand
dau2 hter of Nathaniel Hawthorne the great
est writer of ficiion this country ever pro-
duced, with an English style of marvellous
grace and purity, would be certain to at
tract public attention. This work, how
ever, will do more, it will awaken the pub
lie interest and win popular favor. Al
though Miss Hawthorne is new conner
to the fraternity of letters she
has no occasion to feel ashamed of her
debut. She has an individuality of her
own and writes in a clear, concise, and en-
PERTAINING style that gives a peculiar charm
to her work. She certainly has future in
the field of literary effort, if she chooses to
devote her talents to authorship. The
charming little volume before US. re-
cords Miss Hawthornes impressions OF
the Columbian Exposition, and the read
er will bear cheerful testimony that she
was not only close and thoughtful observ-
er, but one who possessed, in marked de-
gree, the happy faculty of making others
see with her own eyes. The work is finely
illustrated. 1t is printed in clear type upon
good quality of paper and neatly bound
in ornamental cloth.

Alesson TO be Needed.

The malignant phase which the great
strike assumed in California and the public
sympathy which it received afford lesson
that should be needed. That condition of
affairs is attributed to various causes among
which is the character of the people en-
gagged in the strike and sympathizing with
it. We believe this to be one of the
slightest causes. The population of Cali.
fornia hasn't the staid qualities of New
England community, but on the other
hand it is generally law abiding and
strange that in such community there
should be so much sympathy with strikers
so aggressive and striking for what appears
to be such trivial cause. The truth is the
source of the trouble is not Debs, is not
the question of forcing Mr.. Pullmsn to ar
bitrate. These things simply set in motion
feeling of indignation that had been ac-
cumulsting for years and needed only some
inconsequential event, provided it occur at
the right moment, to force that indignation
through the barriers of restraint. Of
course there can be nothing but condemna-
ton for the attitude IF the California
state militia toward the strikers, an attitude
of friendliness, which found expression in
open insubordiuaiion and which led the
rioters to pay little or no heed to them, say
ing the militia would not shoot. But the
state militia has not learned that the
strength of soldiery lies in unquestioning
obedience to orders, and that their personal

There does not appear to be sufficient
reason for the admission of New Mexico into
the sisterhood of states. While this terri
tory is ahuudantly blessed with natural re-
sources, its population is not suitable one
with which to constitute an American COM
monwealth. 1t has population of only
$50 900, considerably less than one
third as large population as the State of
Maine. OF this number only $4,000 are
Americans. There are $4,000 Next
cans and half-breeds, $4,000 Pueblo
Indians and 1000 Navajoes. There
is not a county in Maine that is not
better qualified to send two members to the
United States Senate. 1t is a shame that

its political strength, has resolved to endow

Some of our exchanges are in error in
stating that the present strike has been at
tended with greater destruction of property
than any other labor trouble in the history
of our country. While it istrue that no strike
has been so widespread or so serious a
menace to the Republic as the present one,
there have been number which have been
accompanied by a far greater destruction of
property-notably the great railroad riots
in Pittsburg in 1877.

The taxpayers of Cook county, Illinois,
will have cause to remember the present
strike if they are called upon to pay for the
property destroyed by the mob, as will, prob
ably, be the case. The great railroad strike
in ri tsburg in 1877, with its accompany
ing riots, resulted in the destruction of
property amounting to S4,100,000. The
commissioners of Allegheny made a COM
promise settlement of these claims by the
payment of So, 1872, 1888.
