ORGANIZED Labor.

The wandering of the Miowera in
quest of repairs affords brilliant
object lesson on the benefits of or
ganization in labor. The vessel
was taken to San Francisco to have
her plates put right. But the rules
of the societies there were hostile to
any absurd idea of hurrying up,
and the ironworkers had trade OBJ
iections to working at night-like
the fishermen in Bass Straits, who
would not humor the whims of the
fish that, like any other bloated
capitalists, INDUCED their own sell
fshness roaming about in the dark
ness. So the vessel was ordered to
be taken away, and the workers
were left to their comfortable nap.
Sydney was next thought of as a
place to have the patches put In
but, on second thoughts it occurred,
it seems, that kindred difficulties
might arise. So it was resolved to
fix up her rudder and send the
vessel further afield. But then the
mending of the rudder Difficult
ties of the same kind confronted
even that little enterprise, and the
steamer was taken away to British
| Columbia to have her rudder put
right, and now she is on her long
and circuitous route of some twenty
thousand miles or so around Cape
Horn to Newcastle-on-Tyne in Eng
land to have repairs made that
could easily have been effected in
the Pacific. 1t is a triumph of the
power of organization in labor, and

A PROBLEM.

Malthus, writer on political econ omy in the last century laid down the proposition-and demonstrated it- that the worlds population increases in geometrical proportion, while the increase of food production is only in arithmetical proportion, leading to the conclusion that at some time popula- tion will outstrip food. But now they tell us that food has outstripped pop ulation and that the farmer is impov- erished by over production and fierce competition.
 Yet millions go hungry.
 Ben Buffers proposition that it is under consumption" not ''oyer-pro- duction,p which deranges the worlds exchanges, seems the most correct.
 The problem which civilization must meet is to provide more equable des- tribution of present and future food production. Of course that includes all production. The world is decided ly out of joint when the producer is impoverished and cannot get cost for his production, and the consumer suf- fers want because he cannot buy.

BRAND IT.

The following new form of an old lie is going the rounds of the press.
 A newspaper proprietor in Illinois recennly brought suit against forty three men who would not pay their subscriptions and obtained Judgment in each case for the amount of each claim. Of these twenty-eight made affidavit that they owned no more than the law allowed them, thus pre- venting attachments. Then under the decision of the supreme court, they were arrested for petit larceny and bound over to the sum of $500 each. All but six gave bonds. The postal laws make it petit larceny to taka a paper and refuse to pay for it. LEX.
 There is not word of truth in it. Newspaper men are given no adyan- lage over business men of any other calling in legally collecting their just dues; and an honest newspaper man don't want any.
 So far and so wide have travelled these fakes about the laws punishing people who take newspapers out of postotiices without paying for them that reputable newspaper cannot compliment gentleman by sending him an occasional copy without hay- ing it returned with an insult. Rep utable newspapers can collect their just dues without resort to any such clap trap, and newspapers of that kind should avoid publication of such rot.

SOUND DOCTRINE.

The Los Gatos California; Mall gives utterance to the following bit of profound philosophy:
 We hope our brethren of the county press, of which the Mail is one, will stand firm on the principles of work ing for aspiring office seekers on pure business principles, for yerlly if we la- Dor for politicians, expecting to cover ourselves with glory, at the end of the campaign, our rags will not cover us, and the jubilant officers elect, when we hint q token of remembrance for our services, will say somewhat in the language of holy writ: Depart from me, ye cusses. We know you not. :" Now, brother quill-driyers, let us pre- vail on them to know Us now, while the days are going by"
 The brethren of the Arlzoua press should paste this in their hats.

walls of Peking and there dictate terms of peace before China gets in motion. But should Japan fail in this a prolonged war would wonderfully develop the latent strength of China, and in the end bring victory, with a tremendous modern armament and il- limitable resources in men and money at her disposal. In that event sup pose Lii Hung Chang, "the Chinese Bismark" as he is termed, should de- velope desire for western conquest. Europe might witness repetition of the ravages of Attila.
 In teaching China the art and science of modern warfare, modern Europe may have paved the way for return of maedieval barbarism.

JUDGE COOLEY asserts that "a sym pathetic strike cannot be arbitrated because the strikers are no party to the controversy That is all very true;. but Judge Cooley knows that when the proper parties consent to arbltra- tion the strike is won and the sympa- thetic strikers return to their work. Had Pullman consented to arbitration the country's commerce would not have been tied up two weeks, and the wheels of commerce would have re- sumed revolving the moment it was announced that Pullman would arbi- trate.

TIE Saturday Review quotes a de- cision of Chief Justice Chase, from the supreme bench of the United States, declaring greenback money unconsti- tutional. The Review evidently for got that the later decision of the su- premc court reversed Judge Chase. By that later decision greenbacks were de- clared constitutional money, and that decision has been undisputed law since President Grants first term in office.

IN THE South Carolina democratic primary elections last week Tillman carried thirty-two of the thirty-fiye counties against Senator Butler. This means election of legislature which will send Tillman to the senate in Buffers place. Tillman is opposed by all the banks, all the railroads and all the newspapers in the state. The ari- stocracy are all against him. He promises to warm up President Cleye- land when he gets into the senate.

IN AN interview in the Gazette of last Thursday Judge Baker said that when he got to Washington he found the statehood entirely settled, and in favor of Arizona-that the admission bill will surely pass early in December. In the next breath he said that it is freely conceded at Washington that admission is purely political question and that the dominant party will not endanger it's majority in the senate by voting to admit two republican sena- tors. So the the territory must go democratic to get it. Now the ques- tion is, in winch statement did Judge Baker tell the truth?

THERE is no discount on the fact that Governor Hughes has given Ari- zona a remarkably creditable adminis- tration. Now it remains to be seen whether the territorial democratic convention will endorse that adminis- tration. If it does the party cannot refuse MT Hughes further preferment without self-stultitication. If it re- fuses to endorse him it will be clear demonstration that the Arizona de- mocracy does not want a creditable administration of public affairs.

Chinese Aversion: to Railroads Manifested
I'm Curious Ways.

Chinese Avernion; to Railroads Manifested
I'm Curious Ways.
Engineering enterprise in China,
particularly in SO far as regards rail-
road building, has had, and is still
having, good deal to contend with in
the way of native prejudice, /cnpidity
and superstition, says Casse1l's Maga-
zine, and the tales are many that have
been told of the peculiar difficulties
encountered in that country by
European engineers andg engineering
syndicates in the course of theirsopera-
tions: When, for example, the first
railroad was built, q number of years
ago, the necessary land, it was stated,
was bought from several hundred
different proprietors, all of whom
wanted additional bounties for, the
disturbances of ancestral graves,
which, as may be known, abound in
what the 'tforeign devil" would be apt
20 consider rather unusual localities.
one proprietor claimed to have buried
on his strip of land no less than FIVE
mothers-in-law, for whom he had to
be paid. Satisfying him naturally re-
suited In O marvellous multiplication
OF dead mothers-in-law, who thus soon
became the chief item in the cost of
the land. Another curious example of
the difficulties of railroad construc-
ton ip the celestial empire has more
recently been mentioned, and has been
afforded by the conduct of the Tartar
general of Moukden, the capital of
Manchuria, in connection with the.
survcying work of the railroad from
kirin, another large Manchurian town,
. to Newchwang, the seaport of the
province. According TO, current re-
port twas proposed to make juno
tion OF this line for Moukden at n
place short distance outside the city,
but the general got number of
geomancers to investigate the effect
of this selection upon Moukden. These
sages reported that the vertebra, of the
dragon which cncircles the holy city
of Moulkden would be broken by driv-
ing the long spikes Of the railroad
ties into them, aud accordingly the
general vetoed the decision of the
engineers and directed them to carry
the railroad in straight line from
hirin to Newchwang, without ap-
proaching Moukden Mt oil. This.
while, a shorter route, would compel
the crossing of low and marshy
tract of land, liable to floods and only
sparscly populated.
