Strikers Replaced by Machinerv,

Promoters of strikes argue to their
comrades that unsuccessful efforts are
nevertheless ultimately beneficial: but
study of the subject has led me to
take the opposite view, viz: that all
strikes OF skilled workmen are, in the
end, harmful to the participants. No
n single cause has done more, in nv
opinion, to hasten the introduction Of
entirely automatic machinery in opera
tons where a certain degree of skilled
labor was considered indispensable
than strikes on the part of such skill
ed employees. Numerous instances
might be recalled where large manu-
facturers have, on account of strikes.

money in perfecting automatic machin-

SURRENDER TO ENGLAND.

The Republican national platform endeavors to tire the reader with
2 lot Of rot about tariff and reciprocity, and then shows the dominating
influence behind the once great party Of Abraham Lincoln when it says
IN substance: The Republican party is unreservedly in favor Of English
money and against American money. It caused the establishment Of the
English system by the act Of 1873, and since then every American dollar

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 13.-The boom
for William C. Whitney for president
has, it seems, fallen fiat. Those in
charge Of the boom, however, have TAX
en- great pains to give 1t wide pub
Iicity, and among other things they
claimed that a majority of both houses
had signed the call. The Clarion Ledg-
err of this city, the official state journal
and leading free silver paper Of the
state, today interviewed the members
Of the senate on the subject, and pro-
poses to interview the members of the
house tomorrow. The results of these
interviews are as follows: Members
who signed the call under the impress
sion that Whitney was free silver
man, Is; members to whom the call was
not presented, but who would not have
signed, A; members who declined to
sign at all, 16; total, 80. Total mem

canvass of the house will reveal the
same state Of affairs. A report being
current today that Congressman and

ley & Whitley, on behalf of Charles
G. Firoved and other. creditors Of the
bankrupt State bank, have filed q suit

forcement Of the states claim for q
first lien Of $4,000. in order that his
liability as surety on the 100000 Of
bonds given to the state, two Of the
five bondsmen being insolvent, may
be reduced 1t Is further claimed that
Davidson is refusing the general cred
itors access to the books, and his
whole conduct is aimed at aiding his
personal interests. On account of the
assignee's unfitness. the court is asked
to substitute a receiver. Assets are
placed at $4,000, and liabilities at $780,

A GERMAN MOTHER-HoUsE.
The Topic of Interest in the Deacon
esses, Convention.

1t is only eight years since the Deaconess
movement was instituted in America and to-
day the widest interest is felt in its progress
and development. Interest in the sessions of
the convention proceeding in Wesley church
appears to be on the increase as the attend
ance grows larger, and the second days meet
ings yesterday were the gathering place of
large numbers.
The programme is arranged by the pro-
gramme committee, Of which Rev. Matt S.
Hughes is chairman, moves without hesita-
ton, and what changes have been made In
the order of exercises do not interrupt the
continuity of thought or attention The SYM
pathy of the church for the body of conse-
Grated women of the Deaconess sisterhood is
apparent in the active support of the minis
tiers and laymen they succeed one another
on the speakers platform, all eulogizing
work and workers.
The branch of the work was indicated by
the various papers presented through yester-
days sessions, both the foreign and local
field being comprehended In the morning.
following the opening exercises, Dr. Jacob
Rothweiler Of Louisville, KY, covered "a
German Mother-House,' whereby he gave an
idea of the system and operations in vogue in
Germany There are over 5000 members of
the order in that country. where the work
is we'll organized and extensive. The adapta-
bility Of foreign methods Of American work
was earnestly discussed. DR.. Rothweil-
er's paper was commented upon by Dr. Brod-
beck, DR.. Pearson, Mrs. l.. P. Meyer. Rev.

many facts of helpful interest to general
workers. question box conducted by
Mrs l.. R. Meyer, principal of the Chicago
training school, and this exercise brought
the morning session to a close with adjourn
ment for luncheon.
At the beginning of the afternoon meeting
Rev. w. A. Shannon, of Duluth, presided dur
ing the devotional exercises. Accounts of the
work in deaconess homes and hospitals in diff
ferent states were obtained in the brief verbal
reports offered by superintendent. The As
bury hospital and Rebecca Deaconess home
were represented by Mrs. S. H. Knight; Mil
waukee Deaconess home, Miss Dora Adron:
New England Deaconess home, in Boston, Miss
Mary Lunn; New York Deaconess home Miss
Reeves; Salt Lake City Deaconess home re-
port of Miss Mary e. Spencer, presented by
Mrs. Elderkin; La Crosse, Wis, work, Miss
Nina c. Groman; Toronto Deaconess home
Miss Alice Thompson; German Deaconess
home, of Chicago, Miss Crahi. A paper on
the organization and management of the Bos-
ton Deaconess hospital prepared by Miss Alb
bic L. Punchard, experimenting nurse, was
read by Miss Lunn. Miss Allie Primmer
superintendent Of the Omaha hospital, spoke
OF the work in her field; Miss Pierce spoke of
the German work in Cincinnati.
The auditorium last evening was well filed
with mixed congregation to listen to two
