Bishop Potter, of New York. acting
as arbitrator in four important strikes
within the last IS months, makes the
following statement: eff I were asked
10 say which side-employers or en-
pioyes-was distinguished for the bet
ter manners, should unhesitating7y
declare in favor OF the laboring men"
He also spoke Of the singular dignity"
with which the men listened to the
arguments Of their opponents. This is
impartial testimony from one whose
fairness as an arbitrator makes his
words worthy of consideration. Good
manners, good Judgment, and sincere
desire only for what is just as betREsen
man and man, would soon reconcile the
alterations of labor and capital.

THE DEMAGoGuE.

papers and learns that blankets and wool
clothing and shoes have increased in price,
and he finds that his dollar and a quarter
don't go around like it used to, he is very
apt to put on his thinking cap, and wonder
what prosperity really is. and who it really
benefits. When be once stops to think he
is lost to the Republican party forever
Salisbury News"
The above is the language of the
demagogue. He would not have q re-
turn to the days Of "22lbs. Of sugar,n
&c. He cares nothing for the laboring
man, except his vote, and the laboring
man realizes it. But he states false
hood to begin with: The laborer in
many instances is being paid more than
under the Wilson tariff. Labor is al
ways at q disadvantage, since wages
are the first to go down in hard times
and the last to go up when better times
return. The intelligent laboxer then
will vote for the party of 'sgood times,n
the party of protection. No laboring
man wants to repeat the experience of
the past four years, despite the sophisty
Of the demagogue.

In long review of the failure of
the Harmony Committee the estate
Sentinel. refers to Mr.. Fred E. Bach
as 'sdisorgsnizer." We always had
the contrary opinion Of Mr.. Bach. It
is our recollection that he was put In
charge of the Republican committee Of
New Castle county Immediately after
Harrisons election in 1888. That year
the Republican vote of this county was
$500; of Kent 3200; and of Sussex
4100. After three campaigns t1894) we
find that the Republicans poIled IL 500
votes in New Castle, 3700 in Kent,
and 1900 in Sussex. 1t appears that un-
der Mr.. Bach's management the party
in this county almost doubled its vote,
while the party In Kent and Sussex
under the management OF Mr.. Ad-
dicks's personal friends, including the
editor of the Sentinel increased less
than one-sixth. It must be added too,
in order that this statement may be
complete that while Mr.. Bach spent
Middletown transcript., 1897-10-09

one dollar among so per centum Of all
voters in the State. the managers OF
Kent and Sussex spent ten dollars
among 40 per centum Of all the voters.
Under Mr.. Bach's management the Re-
publicans have won victory after vic
tory in this couaty and Wilmington,
making both substantially Republican.
We are sorry that the same cannot be
said for the conduct of affairs in Kent
and Sussex. Mr.. Bach is obviously the
same kind Of "disorganizer" needed in
Kent and Sussex counties to win Re-
publican victories.

LITRRARY NOTES.

The editor of the American Monthly
Review of Reviewsn makes some pertinent
comments on the recent shooting of strik.
ing miners by deputy sherifs at Lattimer,
Pa. He shows that the local prejudice
against these foreign-born laborers was in
tense, that many Americans who had
worked in the mines before the foreigners
came had drifted into other occupations
in the Pennsylvania towns and villages of
the coal regions, and that the mine owners
had brought in more laborers than were
needed, which helped to keep wages close
to the starvation point. These conditions
go far to account for some of the deplora.
bic doings at LattimeF.

In passing through the streets of oul

has been directed to the Wholesale Room

Mr.. Parker we have learned that the whole
sailing of blankets and robes was commen-
ced in small way by him in 1893, then tax
ing in only some of the small towns in this
state. Since that time, year by year, he
has extended his territory and increased his
sales until this season he has served many
of the large dealers through Pennsylvania
as far west as Harrisburg and through the
Cumberland valley south as far as Harpers
Ferry and Martinsburg, West Va. through
the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and all the
important towns of Delaware and South
Jersey.
Mr.. Parker is at present trying to make
arrangements to add Collar Factory to his
Harness Factory and is now in Harrisburg
looking after the necessary material, tools
and instruments. 1t is gratifying to visit
their stock room, to see the business and to
examine their stock of blankets. There
are blankets and blankets. Mr.. Parker has
been quite busy shipping out blankets for
the last five weeks and yet the supply is
equal to the demand. There are many fine
