CONTEMPORARY OPINION.


From the Philadelphia Ledger.
That arrant demsgogue and misohiev.
Gus agitator, the president of the
American Railway Union, has declared
that "the first shot fired by the regular
soldiers at the mobs here will be the
signal for a civil war II this deolara
ton as above quoted means anything IL
means that this trRitorous au'ocrat will.
If the lawless, criminal hordes that he
commands are fred upon by soldiers of
the United States In the regular dis
charge Of their duty, give the signal for
civil war precisely as he gave the
order for the boycott. 10 is time that
the people, and especially the authori
ties upon whom the people have imposed
the duty of malntalng law and order, act
quickly and resolutely with regard TO it.

Never before in all its history has
Asbury Park been in possession Of so
many editors. The National Editorial
Association, the MARYLAND Democratic
Editorial Association, the Pennsylvania
Press Association and the Peninsula Press
Association, have all been there
this week, sporting among the waves
and enjoying the good things provided
by their enthusiastic entertainers. They
have, incidentally, discussed various
subjects OF interest to the
fraternity. Everything the city af-
foids was placed at the disposal Of the
wielders OF the pen, paste-brush and
shears, and to those who wore the dis
tiugulsting badges was extended the
courtesy Of free transportation through
out the city. Young Mayor Ten Brock,
Of the city fitted about like an animated
crazy quilt, 70 extensively decorated was
his manly shirt front with the various
state badges And he but embodied the
sentiments of the whole community in
bis unhagglng attention ID the editors
and their sweethearts and wives.

From the Philadelphia Press.
The farmers whose small fruit and
vegetables ara spelling on their hauos
because Dictator Debs will not allow
them to be brought into the Chicago
market have a realizing sense of the
selhshness OF the labor agitators who
promote and fatten on strikes. The
fruit and vegetable growers in Union
county, Illinois, are losing SO 600 a day,
because of the blockade OF Chicago ~
he command Of the American Railway
Union. The farmers think they have
little cause to love the railway It takes
a very brief experience to demonstrate
to them that they have infinitely less
cause TO love those who interrupt rail-
way traffic aud destroy their market.

Tho End Of the Great Coal strike.

There is every reason for congratula.
tion that the coal miners strike is at an
end. There is no doubt that the miners
were poorly paid, and this fact would
have created much sympathy through

unlawful means to secure their desires
It's believed that there is an element Of
foreign labor among the miners, intro.
ducsd by the parsimouy Of the mine
owners, that never should have been
allowed to touch American soil. These
men are Anarchists in belief and thugs,
cutthroats and assassins in practice.
Such men rs these, the scum Of
European wage earners, have come to
this country to avoid tho psnaltle1 Of
their acts In their native land and they
have been temporarily willing to work
at prices inadequate TO their comfortable
support, replacing Americans who were
not willing to work for starvation
wages The fact is, they did not care so
much for work as for the opportunity
which was afforded them by the big
strike to involve their fellow workmen
in their pestlferous views regarding the
destruction Of all law and society. The
blame for the unlawful features Of the
strike, the mobs, violence and bloodshed
rests with this class OF people and no
terms will ever succeed in making
good citizens OF them They should be
sent back where they belong, kept there,
and no more Of TIE game class ever
again allowed to land in the United

while it IL a fact that their pay had
already been cut down out Of proportion

According to the census reports Of 1899
and the state labor reports Of Indiana
and Illinois Of later date, the adult
miners were able to earn. at the
rate then prevailing, considerably less

From tho Lancaster New Era.
The fact that, in spite OF hard times,
as many people have gone or are going
to Europe rs during any previous season,
has created much comment. II is sc
counted for by many that it Is not in
spite of the hard times, but actually be
cause of them. IL is believed that 1t Is
possible TO get along quite as cheaply ia
