Slavery is likely to be abolished by
the war power ana chattel slavery de-
strored. This |. and my European
friends are in favor of. for slavery is
but tn. owning of labor and carries with
it the care of the laborer. while the
European plan. led on by England, is
capital control of labor. by controlling
wages. This can be done by control
ling the money. The great debt that
capitalists will see to it is made out OF
the war. must be used As a measure to
control the volume Of money. To ac-
complish this. the bonds must be used
as banking basis. We are now wait

THE STRIKE LESSON.

The great Pullman strike a come
.rd oone like ninety per cent OF ike
.yents-a victory for the corporations.
The ause OF the st, sers were SO just
and the arrangements in perfect order,
I'm, rioht could not prevail when the
government and the greatest corpora
lions in the world were in opposition.
MANY were in hopes that something
might be accomplished, though they
did M, believe in strikes As a remedy
for the injustice that is deit out 70
laborer5 these days. The contest was
on such a gigantic scale that 1t looked
a. though it would carry everything
befor the uprising. But the government
saw the the danger that threatened the
railroads. violated the law and come 10
the rescue of the vast corporations. IL
wi,, he remembered that the railroads
aided the government in keeping back
the Industrial army by refusing to
make rates for them like is done for
other people, etc. So what is the use OF
these strikes? They accomplish no
thing and the strikers injure their
friends nearly Us much as the enemy.
The late effort vas managed adj
mirably and we cannot see where
mistake was made in that respect. IT
may be true that some Of the strikers
lost their tempers and done things that
were not right when the gOvernm ent
stepped in and took the side OF the
.ailroads. but the leaders were not to
blame. The event, then, has demons
trated one of two things that the
strikers must be more powerful than
the combined forces of the government
and corporations or the government
must be wrcnched out of the hands o.
of the corporations at the ballot box
The tirsv is not to be thought OF in any
event. as il would mean untold hard
ships if the cause won, while if the con
test went a. a nst the laboring men. i
would mean Il greater amount of de
rrcdation and misery than at the pres
ent time. which would be unbearablt
and worse than slavery. We think tina
the laborers and their leaders hav
come to the only just conclusion, tina
it is further useless to engage in strikes
us il Is almost certain to be Il lOOsin
game. and will in the future work
Sc rle control of the government b
pcaceblc means ut the ballot box. Th
can be easily accomplished If the labo
ing men will only bc true to themselvt
and fami les. In every strike the IL
mublicans and Democratic administr
,ious have bitterly been opposed to TT
iaborer and nothing can be hoped Il
in those directions. The Peoples part
declare in favor Of the labOring ma
and i'm every state where the latte
party Las been in power the schema
Of the corporations has been ''sct dow
ou."us was shown in the Kansas ar
Colorado coal strikes of the past fe
Inrnths. The governors OF those stat
refused 10 take the side OF the corpor
tions ana guaranteed fair play. III
labor organizations seem to see matte
in this light for they are universal
.ndoisin= the Peoples party. and
true to their resolutions the COUNT
can be carried in the interests OF Il
MASSES.

THE INeERsoLL LECTURE.
A Very Large Audience Attended at City
Hall Last Evening-The Effort Less Seri-
Gus and Dignified Then the Lincoln
Lecture.

The lecture of Colonel Robert G. Ing ersoll
at City Hall last evening was largely at
tended, all the seats on the floor and gallery
being taker. When it is remembered that
the seats sold at fifty, seyeptJ-five cents
and dollar, this is large attendance for
any entertainment. The lecture, for those
who liked that kind, was more entertaining
than the lecture on Abraham Lincoln; but
1t was far below it in dignity. At the outset
the lecturer proclaimed war against both
the Bible and the whole fabric of Christian
1ty; but the weight CT his charge was
directed against the idea that the entire
Bible is the inspired word of God. While
not admitting that any part of it is in
spired. he devoted himself mainly to the
Old Testament books, all of which he con-
demned OF ridiculed with the exception of
Ecciesiastes and the Song OF Solomon.
These two books were in harmony with the
thought of modern humanity. Col. Inger-
soil, after devoting most of his time to the
Old Testament. declared that the new was
worse than the old, but found very little to
condemn in it except certain alleged dis
crepancies in statement and creed. He
ayowed his belief that Christ was only a
man; but did not use in this portion of his
lecture the f1ippant wit which chaIact erized
his treatment of the old Hebrew prophets.
He acknowledged respect for the teach
ings of Christ; but declared that Shakes
peare was the greatest man who ever lived.
Colonel Ingerson began his lecture by de-
clarlng that the only ms ,iration which God
If there be God-had ever given to man
kind, was the reasoning power of human
intellect. The lecturer declared himself
devotee of reason, which was the only guide
to mankind. Liberty was his religion. His
apostrophe of liberty was eloquent and drew
forth much applause.
The commercial features of the entertain
ment were made very prominent by sellers
of Colonel Ingersoll's book, who shouted out
their wares at the coming in and going out
of the audience.
At the lower doors, just outside the hall,
young men passed about little pamphle
entitled s'The Old Book; Will it Stand"
short reply to Ingersoll.

LAYING OUT OF A TOWN WAY.
The Court Agrees With the Commissioners
in the "Shady Lane" Case.

There was case before Judge Haskell OF
the Supreme court yesterday morning, lhat
showed that the law does not move rapidly,
if it gets there at last. 1t was matter III
which tie people of the town of Falmouth
were deeply interested, and which in one
form or another has been under discussion
for months. 1t was the case of John U.
Cobb, ct ais, petitioners for a new road IN
the town of Falmouth, and the following is
statement OF the case:
This was petition for the laying out OF a
new way in the town of Falmouth, being
continuation of the roads knownsas Shady
Lane. At the hearing upon. the petition be-
fore the county commissioners, the town OF
Falmouth opposed the laying out of the
way; and after view of the premises and
hearing the parties. the commissioner de-
cided that public convenience and necessi-
ty did not require the laying out of the
road petitioned for.
The petitioners appealed from this de-
cision of the county commissioners to the
Supreme court; and at the last April term,
committee, consisting of Hon. }. n.
Drummond, Leander E. Cram and Charles
A. .Tilton, was appointed. This committee
viewed the premises and gave hearing to
the parties at Falmouth in October last,
and subsequently filed their report sustain
ing the decision of tho county commission
ers in not laying out the road. The nearing
before Judge Haskell was upon the accept
ance of the report of the committee. The
court accepted the report and ordered 1t re-
corded.
Hon. NJ. P. Frank and Hon. VIII. Vinton
were attorneys for the petitioners, and N.
& H. B. Cleaves and Stephen c. Perry and
