The Cost of strikes.

For the strikes that occurred from 1881

employers losses estimated by the same
authority at SSO,7Ol,OOO And the trouble
Is not growing less as the years go by
From i74l to 1880. inclusive there were
l,49l strikes and lockouts. while for the
six years ending Dec. q, 1886. the number
OF strikes alone was 3.gO2-forty a year
for the first period. and over $50 a year for
the second period. Making all due allow

latter period, the contrast Is still start

The following is an extract from
the Luso of November 9th relative to
Annexation. That paper says:
"What we have suspected for "A long
time past to be merely farce to de-
lude the people who really desired AN
nexation of Hawaii to the United
States, is becoming a fact, and ac-
cording to our inquiries and investi-
cations, we can say that today with
out fear of being deceived. that the
so-called annexation is really a farce,
and nothing more. We have collected
irrefutable information which con-
firms our former assertions that what
the planters hope for is not annexa-
ton pure and simple, but an Ameri-
can protectorate over Hawaii, and
when we say over Hawaii, we mean
the existing government and plant
erS.
"This much is asserted without cir
cumlocution by some of the most
prominent planters that even the sys-
TEN of contract labor will continue
without Interruption, only with the
difference that it will not be enforc-
ed penalty. but as any other contract
of any other kind.
Moreover the ink is still fresh on
the order for from three to five thou
sand more Japanese, whom the = =
tiers demand. and whom the govern
ment contracts to have imported I'M
der contract, until the month of Jan
uary next.
"The torch of truth with which we
have advised our incautious country
men. lulled to sleep by the songs of
the so-called anneNationists, will not
let itself delay with its bright rays to
prove that we were right in advising
neutrality to the colony, in order not
to involve ourselves i'm completely in
so Infamous transaction as is going
to be probably consummated in IA
short time.
"The sudden change of the planters
i'm favor of the so-called annexation,
makes us distrust the honesty of the
transaction and we can against assert
that it is the truth and nothing more
than the truth. that there will not be
annexation pure and simple, as many
believe, but a protectorate, which will
guarantee more solidity to the oligar-
chy which exists here today.
'Those who advised the colony con-
trary to our teaching, ought to rise
when the occasion arrives. and eX-
plain the motives which led them to
proceed thus"

ANOTHERTRIUMPH OF SCIENCE
Doctor Koch Stays the Ravages of Q
Fatal Disease of Cattle.


~-~~Einderpest. is. the dead}iest disease
that a overtake cattle. 1t comes from
Asia, like so many other plaques, and
recently it ravaged English territory in
South Africa with terrible severity.
The government was compelled at last
to take active measures for its suppress
son. and to that end commissioned
Doctor Koch, the famous German sci
enlist, to proceed to the Cape and try
to discover the microbe that is the
cause of the disease. The great bac-
terlologist has SO far failed to isolate
the bacillus; but he has achieved the
greater practical success Of discovering
how to render cattle immune to it's
ravages, by adopting the methods of
Jenner, Pasteur ard Behring. He Don
found hat the in%noculation Of Angora,
Merino and Cape sheep produced in
these animals a modified form of rim
derpest, but when the material was
transplanted into the "dewalp' of cat
tie the disease was more virulent for
them. He also found that the blood
Of "salted" cattle Gtose that have re-

principle which coSl0 confer immunity
on healthy animals, but considerable
quantities of the blood were necessary,
and the length of time required was an
obstacle. Then he discovered that the

killed acted as a r%accinaling substance
Oh healthy cattle. The immunity con-
ferred by this method was so great that
the animals could withstand the inocu-
