White Man VS.. Negro.

Trouble has been brewing for some
weeks in Western mining camps, and there
have been several outbreaks between the
white laborers and the imported negroes.
On Wednesday, at Virden, Illinois, the
arrival of imported negroes to take the
places Of the striking miners, was followed
by battle between the sheriff $ deputies
and the strikers. Fourteen men were killed
and % wounded Governor Tanner sent
troops to the scene, instructing them to
quell the riot and protect life and property
but not allow any imported labor to be un-
loaded at that point. The Governor says
the mine owners are responsible for the
hloOdshed

The strikers. Riot in Illinois.

From Philadelphia, Pa Ledger, Republican, Oct 10.
The serious trouble, accompanied by
frequent riots and disturbances, that has
existed in the coal region of Illinois, near
Pana, eliminated yesterday in a battle at
Virden, in which many lives were lost.
The reports from the scene of the conflict
are indefinite and contradictory. The sher-
if of the county wired the Governor that
100 men were killed, but the Governor
places the loss at from nine to fifteen killed,
with as many more wounded. The strike,
attended by frequent outbreaks. of violence,
has been in progress several weeks, and
recently the mine owners have been i'm
porting negro laborers from the South to
replace the white miners, who refused to
accept the terms offered Yesterday when
a train load of Southern negroes was en-
tering Virden, where 1000 armed strikers
were lined up awaiting their arrival, the
shooting opened between the idle miners
and the fifty or sixty guards who were on
the train to protect the imported laborers,
and the fight was kept up for some time,
with disastrous results, the armed deputies
in the stockades built for the protection of
the imported labor taking part in the bat
tle Soldiers have been sent to the scene,
but the force is thought to be wholly in
adequate to maintain order if the strikers
are in fighting mood.
The responsibility for the deplorable
loss of life has not been placed One ac-
count charges the railroad police with pre-
cipitats and i'll advised action, while the
sheriff statement leads to the inference
that Governor Tanner has been extremely
remiss in responding to the sheriff S call
for aid to help him keep within bounds
thousands of armed and militant strikers,
who were terrorizing the country. The
situation is made more difficult by the
very evident posing of the demagogic
Governor, who apparently has an eye rather
to the coming campaign and his chances
for a United States Senatorship, to which
he has the hardihood to aspire, than to
his responsibilities as the guardian Of life
and property and the preserver of law and
order The Governor is violent in his
denunciations of the mine operators, when
his immediate duty is to still passion and
not to inhame it; to quell riot energetically
and to stop the bloodshed, whatever may
be the merits of the controversy between
the strikers and the mine owners

Davidson and Parr.

The readers of the ADVOCATE will re-
collect Robert G. Davidson, president of
the Baltimore Trust and Guarantee Com
pany, as one of the gentlemen who pre-
dicted great prosperity in the event of Nc
Kinley's election. 1t was to be imme-
date and permanent. Mr.. Davidson ac-
tuallv knew millions of dollars that were
to be invested in Baltimore, so he said, as
soon as Mckinley S election was assured.
It is probable some Democrats were de-
ceived by this declaration, and voted for
Mckinley and sound money, but those
millions are still to come. They have not
arrived, and every business man in Balti-
more knows that the present has been the
dullest year for long time.
This same Mr. Davidson is again talk
ing about sound money, in the Balti-
more News, sneering at the Constitution,
and telling about how he will vote Every
body knows that he will vote the Repub
lican ticket, because he is not and never
was Democrat. The Democratic party
took him up and made him Mayor of Bal
timore, under the impression that he was
a Democrat, and he owes all he is and has
to that elevation. But for the fact that
he was once Mayor of Baltimore, it is
likely he would not now be president of
the Baltimore Guarantee and Trust Com
pany.
Mr.. Harry A. Parr is another man who
attained some notoriety by running up
stream. like a fish. He used to train
with the Democratic party, but no one ever
heard of him until he paraded himself as
stGold Democrat the kind of a Demo
GRAFT who always votes the Republican tick
ct. We do not suppose Mr.. Parr ever had
any conception of Democratic principles.
He probably believes in such nonsense as
s'intrinsic value, fat money &c. 1t
never occurred to him that all money is
fat. and his mind is too obtuse to compre-
bend it. 1t would be useless to argue to
such man that intrinsic value is falla-
cy. IF he were cast upon barren island,
with thousand dollars in gold coin, where
there was nothing to be purchased to eat,
he might realize that intrinsic value was a
myth. Nothing else, however, could con-
vince him, and we are not so sure even this
would. STILL this same Harry A. Farr
thinks his opinion is valuable upon public
matters, and his tongue runs glibly when
News reporter calls upon him.
We have no objection to the actions and
opinions of Messrs. Davidson and Parr,
but we do object to them posing as Demo
Gratis while they act and vote with the Re-
publican party. And 50 far as this paper
has influence they cannot deceive the
people We will expose them as often as
they appear in public.

Mr. William b. Baker, who has just
been nominated for third term in Con-
gress, is said to be good citizen of Har-
ford county and personally very pleasant
man. But as a Representative of this
district in Congress he has proven a no
nentity. He has simply done nothing,
and not Republican paper in the district
has attempted to show that he has, al
though the challenge to do so has been
made by the ADVOCATE and other Demo-
cratic papers.
It cannot be pleaded in extenuation that
Mr.. Baker had no opportunity. He has
served nearly four years, including an extra
session of the House, during which i'm
portant and momentous questions have
arisen, and yet the second district Of Mary
land was silent because its representative
had not the ability to grasp these questions
and give utterance to his views For four
years the second district has virtually had
no representative.
What a contrast there is between Mr..
Baker and his predecessors. Hons. Chas.
B. Roberts, j. Fred. G. Talbot Frank
7. Shaw and Herman Stump each served
two terms in Congress, the same period
Mr.. Baker has been there. Judge Rob
erts. in his second term became chairman
of the Committee on Accounts, an impor-
tant committee and laborious position,
and he also became widely known as the
chief advocate and supporter of the bill
recognizing the United States Life Saving
service.
Mr.. Talbot was regarded as one Of the
ablest members of the Naval Committee,
occasionally spoke upon measures before
the House, and during his second term
had record for having more private bills
passed than any other member of the
House.
DR.. Shaw attracted so much attention
by his energy and ability during his first
term. that at the beginning of his second
he was made chairman of the Committee
on Accounts, and made a speech on the
Mills tariff bill that was largely quoted
from aud was used as campaign docu-
ment by the Democratic Congressional
Committee.
Mr.. Stump, although he served in Con
crosses which the opposite party controlled,
left his impress on the legislation Of
the second term. He formulated and
pushed through bill to limit and regulate
immigration, and was highly praised for
his work by the press and labor organlza-
tions throughout the country and was made
Commissioner of Immigration by Mr..
Cleveland.
Mr.. Baker, who comes before the peo-
pie for third term, not because he was
called but because he thrust himself upon
his party, has simply done nothing, and
he has served, too, in Congresses controlled
by his own party. He has ambition OF no
mean order, otherwise he would not have
aspired to be Representative in Congress,
but no corresponding ability. During his
incumbeney the second district has been
unrepresented, and should he be elected
the district would have no representative
for another term of two years. He is
mere accident in politics, and is in Con
gress by reason of Democratic disorganiza-
ton at the times he was. elected. 1t is
impossible to believe that the voters will
again send him to Washington.
