CHEAP LABOR.

The rioting on the part of the strik,
ing Huns in Western Pennsylvania
coke regions illustrates the evil of the
wholesale importation of labor The
Huns were brought to that region
from Europe few years ago for the
reason that their labor could be oh
tanned cheaper than that of native
workman. Since they have been there,
however. it is a question whether, in
view Of the frequent troubles they
have caused, the strikes they have in
augurated, the property that has been
destroyed, and the expense of employ
ing and maintaining guards, they have
not proved to be the dearest kind of
labor, BRADFORD Star.
