THE SILVER CRAZE.
rMoodland Democrat. |

Such Democratic papers as fear that the
effect of the Improvement Of the indus
trial condition of the country and the in
crease IN wages paid to Iaborers will
a5ate the silver craze are in chronic
state of unhappiness. All Democrats who
do not agree with them are charged with
being influenced by Improper motives,
and are invited to take their bag and
baggage and go over into the Republican
party. 1t is Il significant fact that the men
who have been thus invited to seek new
political aIignments have never taltered
i'll their allegiance to the Democratic
party, while many of those who, rs a con-
dition of their 1ealty, insist upon being
allowed to dictate the lines upon which
the next campaign shall be conducted,
have never been considered anything else

CUBAN FREEDOM.
1San Jose Herald.l

The Cuban rebellion is as sincere an ex-
hibition of unseltish and patriotic cour-
age struggling against the tyranny of a
nation incompetent TO govern as has
been Witnessed IN the history OF the vari-
ons American revolutions In the past
century. 1t is an aspiration and move
ment that cannot be crushed out, and
which the proximity or our republic and
ever increasing communication OF repub-
lican ideas to Cuba will continually
strengthen. If Cuba were free she would
pass under American trade Influences;
she would buy from her customers, and
would have better railroads aud nigh
ways. Her remarkable resources would
be developed by American capital, and
her business would rapidly increase con-
currently with her protection from Span

GOMPERs' DISCOVERY.
lSan Diego Union.

Samuel Gompers OF the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor has been to England as
delegate to the trades union congress, and
while abroad made an extensive study of
the condition of the working classes Of
Europe. The result of his observation is
that the American work man is far better
oil than are his brethren IN the Old
World. MIR. Gompers need not have
crossed the ocean To acquire this knowl-
edge, but, now that he is thoroughly con-
WINGED on the subject, it is 10 be hoped
that he will not hesitate To tell the actual
facts to the laboring classes of this coun-
try. If American workmen could realize
the difference between their condition
and that OF Old w orld toilers they would
be less willing to give ear 20 foreign agi
tators VINO are ignorant of the situation
here and come TO this country solely TO
stir up strife.
1t is true there is room for vast i'm
provement i'll the condition of the work.
ing classes in this country. Professional
agitatOrs, however, who gain a iiveli-
hood by arousing the discomfort of the
masses, take advantage of this fact and
seek thereby to create the impression that
the American laborer, whether skilled or
unskilled, is no better Off as TO wages or
social position than the foreign tOller.
This sentiment, artiully fostered, has
been responsible to very great ex tent for
some of the most disastrous strikes that
have occurred in this country. The report
that Gompers brings back from Europe
should counterfeit this erroneous idea.
If the views which he expresses
have the effect to give the workingmen Of
this country clearer idea of the advan-
tages they enjoy as compared with those
OF other lands, he will render them far
more practical service than has ever been
achieved by any labor organization in
which he has taken part.

HARD ..OnV THE REMEDY.
riEOH Iribune.i
The story told by young Laugenour in
tracing The cause OF his downfall has
many duplicates in every community in
this great state. Sons of wealthy men
are given money in abundance without
advice or caution as to the manner of
spending it. Never having been COM
PEELED to labor for it they do not know
the value Of the dollar. and it is but
natural that they should become protli-
gates. There is no need to draw a long
and tiresome moral disquisition or the
subject. as tina remedy may be summed
up IN a few words. Teach the boy the
value of money by compelling him to
work for every dollar he receives. no
matter what his circumstances may be,
and il is not very likely that he will be-
come spendthrift. Hard work has the
additional advantage of keeping the boy
out OF bad company and away from de-
moraliZinR Influences.

IRON WORKERS CONVENTION.
Wages to Be Discussed by the Anal
gamated Association.


Pittsburg, May 1.-The annual con-
vention of the Amalgamated Associa-
ton of iron and Steel Workers will be
held in Cleveland in two weeks, and it
will be the most important session since
1892 The organization is stronger now
than at that time and it covers a larger
territory
This year the great question, as usual,
Will be a revision of the wage scale,
SO as to secure restoration Of the
wages lost during the business depres-
sion. Since the summer of 1893 the
wages of the iron and steel workers
nave been going down. The pudding
rate fell from $3.50 to 81 per ton and even
that rate has been cut in many places,
notably in Pittsburg The voluntary
reduction of 10 per cent in the tonnage
rates for f1nishers was followed last
year by further reduction of 10 per
cent and in the Youngstown district
the hn1shers took another cut Of Is per
cent.
Inc only workers who escaped were
the sheet mill hands The tin plate
workers compromised with a reduction
oI lzR per cent and Is per cent, one
iall Whas was demanded by the manu-
Iacturers. The demand for wage re-
storatlon will likely cover all depart
ments of mill work, with the possible ex-
ceptlon OF the tin plate branch.
