A Unsuitable Strike,

There are occasions when q strike
of workingmen is justifable. tits too
often the case that labor troubles are
precipltsted needlessly in order to OBJ
tain redress for grievances more I'M.
aginsry than real, but, while this is
true, it is equally true that there are
exceptions to the rule. The strike of
coal miners at Leavenworth seems to
be an exception in which the miners
have justice and right on their side.
Investigations of the trouble made
by Labor Commissioner Bird reveals
a condition of affairs that Is surpris-
ing, to say the least. The commits
sloner found that instead of $206 per
day being paid the miners, according
to the computation made by the oper-
ators on hosting days only, the very
best average for the Riverside and
Home mines is 93a cents for each day
actually worked. These figures were
taken from the books Of the operators
and show conditions prior to the cut
to 70 cents made IN June, and subse-
quent calculatins would show even
lower wages and worse conditions.
A disinterested public cannot do
less than to indorse the strike of these
Leavenworth miners. Their position
is one that must appeal to all fair
minded people-to those who desire
not only to receive fair wages for an
honest days work, but are willing
that everyone shall get the same. No
one can claim that workingmen re-
ceiving less than $1.00 per day are in
a position to support their families or
maintain their standing as self-re-
speeding citizens in a prosperous ma
ton. They must at some tune or
other, or the greater portion of the
time, be objects Of public charity, and
in event that this is not so, their con-
dition must be such as to excite uni
verssl sympathy and commiseration.
Strikes are not always justifable, 1t
is true; but there is an example where
the strike IS last appeal made
against the tyranny Of starvation
wages. Matters cannot be much
worse to those engaged in the
struggle. They have all to gain and
nothing to lose.-K. c. World, (rep).

There are instances Of crime where
the execution Of Lynch law in punish
ment thereof IS not criticised too severe
ly. for there are certain offences which
men the world over VIII punish with
summary justice, regardless of law or
consequences. but the horrible act of a
Kentucky mob in burning alive a man
and q woman who was about to become
mother. does not enter this category
OF lynch.1gs. The crime for which this
woman, her unborn child and her para
mour suffered their barbarous death
was white as innocence beside ,that of
the mob Of fends who in cold blood took
the lives Of the wretched pair in a
fashion that for hellish cruelty could not
be exceeded in any savage land on the
face Of the earth.
That there exist in a civilized COM
mun.ty men 50 savage of nature and
devI.sh of heart as to be capable Of such
work as was detailed in our telegraphic
columns yesterday, must stagger our be-
lief in Christian civilization. in the very
midst of which this horror has happen
ed. If such things can occur in the
most progressive and enlightened cOun-
try on earth, wherein are we morally
or spiritually superior to the naked saw
age who paints himself for war and
burns his enemies at the stake? Does not
the latter. who knows no better really
rank a little ahead of the Christian, civ
il.zed savage. who does?
The State Of Kentucky VIII never re
move this stain from her escutchecn un-
I'll she ftly Furnishes every member Of
this devilish mob. The blot upon our
civilization is inefacable.

The heal-h authorities Of wheeling
have done the proper thing at this june
ture in raising the quarantine against
Bridgeport. That town now has but
about a half dozen casesthe health auth
critics over there report no further dan
ger and promise a strict quarantine
against Martins Ferry, where the s.Jua-
ton has not been SO well handled. But Il
Bridgeport had twice or thrice the mum
Der Of cases It has. or if the quarantine
were raised against Martins Ferry,
also. there would be nOneed TO fear that
our health department since its reor-
ganization and thorough oyerhauling,
would not be able 10 keep the disease
thoroughly under subject.on should it
again appear on this side
The Register opposed the establish
ment Of quarantine against our ONO
neighbors first. because it was not pro
posed until the smallpox had attained its
worst proportions over there, and all the
damage that was likely to he done to
the health Of this city had already been
done. and. second because we have ev-
cry confidence in our ability to cope with
the disease under the new regime of the
health department which so promptly
stamped it on, of Wheeling when once
il began work in earnest In fact. to the
extraordinary negligence of Council in
the beginning and TO the gross ncompet-
ancy OF It's first appointees in this de-
narment alone is due the fact that the
nanpox was not stamped out last
ing upon its frsc appearance here.
As matters now stand the worst has
passed and we are IN no danger what
ever from a rev.sitation Of tae disease
The quarantine has already cost the peo-
'e and merchants over the river and in
r -heehng considerable i'm money and in
Convenience. and the sooner it is raised
a. along the line the better.
