Of industry the decrease will average IS
per cent, and in some instances it runs
as high as 80 per cent.
The whole number of members reported

wages been prevented by the fact of the
existence of your organizations? is an
swered by gu labor Organizations Five
hundred and forty-eight organizations
reported they prevented wage reductions;
80 say they were unable to prevent de-
| creases in the rates of pay and SO state

DIR. parkhurst.. Good sense,

The old adage, when thieves fall out
honest men may get their dues" bids fair
to be reversed in the political turmoil of
New York city, where once more Tammany
and the honest elements of the municipality
are 'arraying themselves against each
other The trouble is that the honest ele-
ments are getting themselves into fractional
form and are disposed to disagree as to
the best method of twisting the tigers
tail. The "Goo-Goos," as the members of
the Good Cover nment Clubs are facetiously
termed, have gone ahead and nominated a
ticket, supposed to represent the best there
Is in the entire reform party. DR.. Park
hurst. the handspring of Gotham reform,
has objected to this as unlikely to produce
practical results. He calls for reorgani-
cation of the old committee of seventy, and
for an anti-Tammany fight on old lines,
with every faction in the reform ranks
subject to the will of the leader in the
great movement DR.. Parkhurst is prob
ably right. and if his advice should now be
disregarded the hungry tiger is apt to get
e meal the like of which he has not had in
a year 1t may be that the various reyela-
lions of the utter 6epravity of the Tam
many regime will keep up the ire of the
best citizens-who are presumably In the

sat on New Yorks chest for so many years
The danger is that, by scattering their ad-
verse votes among two or three tickets, no
one of the opposing parties will have
strength enough to outvote Tammauy
with the immense strength of that organ

Washington the Place, Not New York.


Through ore of its newspapers, New
York city Is claiming exclusively the privi-
lege Of entertaining the Confederate Asso-
citation of Veterans, when that body of OK
confederate soldiers holds its next annual
meeting. Philadelphia having been sug-
gested by a confederate veteran, the advo-
cate of New York combats that nominal
ton and insists that the most desirable
place for the meeting would be on Manhat-
tan Island. The proposition to have the
Confederate Association of Veterans meet
in a northern city had its origin in the
fact that the Grand Army of the Republic
has just held an encampment at Louisville:
therefore 1t Is nothing less than absurd fog
the New York Journal referred to to call
attention to the fact that american lib
erty had a cradle in New York as well as
in Philadelphia and that the patriots of
New York fought as well as any of the
Philadelphians ever fought in the battles
of our revolution, and that New York had
its full share of illustrious revolutionary
leaders," No one has been discussing the
revolution in connection with the probable
meeting of the Confederate Association CT
Veterans in some city north of the Poto-
mac. Let us look at history more nearly
modern. In the visit of the Grand Army
to Louisville there was eminent fitness, Cor
Louisville was filled to overlooking with
confederate sentiment thirty odd years ago.
and beneath the surface there is probably
preponderance of that sentiment even now.
althc ugh /. is unquestionably overshadowed
by loyalty to the Stars and Stripes The
meeting of those who were once foes but
who are now friends was a delightful ex-
perience. But the visit of the confederate
veterans to New York could not possibly
parallel the pilgrimage of the Grand Army
to Louisville, for in no northern city was
there anything like SO much disloyalty to
the Union during the war as could be found
during any hour of the day or night in New
York: the reunion therefore would be one
of old friends and sympathizers, so it would
not be at all romantic or in any sense ex-
traordnary. Even the confederate veterans
themselves would not care to he chaper-
roned through some of the most interesting
places in Gotham; thoroughly reconstructed,
they would have nothing more than pass
ing interest in those localities where the
draft riots were most murderously disas-
trous, nor would they care to have de-
scribed to them the preparations made by
Horace Greedy and hundreds of other loyal
New Workers, whose only offending was
outspoken advocacy of an undivided Union.
to defend themselves from the assaults of
New York confederates. Looking at the
subject quite dispassionately, 1t seems to
us that much the better place for the con-
federate veterans to meet would be WASH
ington This was of all cities the city
into which they not so long ago desired to
make entrance; now they may come and be
welcome.
