The adams Express strike.

A strike like that which has just been
broken In the Adams Express Company
service shows just who is the working
mans real enemy. 1t is not the oppres-
sive corporation which makes him work
from seven A. NJ. to nine P. NJ: it is the
other -workingman who is ready to jump
in ard take his place the moment he re-
volts against such abominable tyranny.
.Tffis strike, though every consideration
OF Justice, decency and public policy was
on the side Of the men, was a foreor-
nained failure, because the number Of the
strikers was too small TO make It hard to
replace them. The time for revolt was
most foolishly chosen. Workmen who
throw up their jobs on a falling labor mar
let simply invite their own destruction
Just at present, the fear of silver is
causing contraction in every field in which
labor is employed. No new enterprises
are being undertaken, and those who are
embarked in old ones are curtailing ex-
penses in every possible way. Many men
are out of work and many more are
working for mere bread. Under such
conditions. there could be no trouble in
filling the places of 1900 men. who can
hardly be classed as skilled laborers.
After Bryan's defeat in November, when
work grows brisk again, these men might
have won their fight, if they had had the
oommo sense to wait for the right OPP

Here is a plank from the Populist
platform adopted at Newark on satur-
day
We favor more stringent laws regu-
iating the organization of corporations
which never have xab assets with
The miscellaneous corporations char
tered by this State contributed, in recent
years. the following amounts to the State
treasury
Year ending October, 1885,. $3.50. .s5Ss.s12 26
Year ending October, 1894......... $40, 849 SO
Year ending October, 1S95......... 69S, 1872 SO
This tax is merely on their capital
stock Besides. a large number of them
have property in the State and pay the
usual local taxes upon it. Naturally,
those which hav no property in the
State pay no taxes except that levied
upon their capital stock in compensation
from their franchise.
The effect of the more stringent laws
which the idiotic Populists demand, would
be to deprive the State of a vast income
from corporations which have no prop
erty in the State, but which pay us
tribute in order to share the benefits of
our liberal corporation laws.
