T. V. Powderly Addresses
Anthracite Miners.
Ex-Master Workman of the
Knights of Labor Says
There Is No Necessity for
Hasty Action.

In the Lackawanna region there is
not so much desire for strike today as
there has been in the past week. This
is owing to the speech of Hon. L. V.
Powderly, commissioner of immigration,
and ex-master workman of the knights
of Labor, to large gathering of miners.
He opposed a strike. Among other
things he said:
"Workingmen, listen to reasonl
There is no necessity fer haste. You
have not organized in haste. | recall
the strikes of 1869, 1870 and 1877. Each
one followed close on the heels of or
ganization. Do not expect from labor
organization what you cannot gain
through others. 1t is business con-
Germ, u corporation, and surely you
should not expect dividend in the
shape of increased wages, reduced
powder or anything else until you had
taken time and allow the principles of
your organization to be understood by
the entire community.
another thing you should remember.
The man who first advocates the strike
and who talks strike in preference to
arbitration or any other remedy, is not
the last man out when the strike is de-
cared off. In 1877 there were men who
opposed the strike until the last mo-
ment, and once out they remained out
Some nf than uipttrniynI
walked the streets for months and years
after the strike ended
Take your merchants, your priests,
your ministers and neighbors into your
confidence, counsel with them, enlist
their sympathy in your cause, have them
act as mediators between you and your
employers, and, in Gods name, do not
strike until you are forced to or until
there is no other remedy left.
Now, word to the employer: Do
not refuse to meet your workmen. Do
not hold off from them. You accept
their cooperation and labor in your
great work of production. Why should
you not listen to their demands or
grievances? | never knew time when
laborer and employer could not settle
their differences if they reasoned with
each other. Surely, the great business
and commercial interests of the valley
| below are deserving of the calmest de-
liberation, the most careful thought, the
most careful handling. Get together,
talk it over. Don't act hastily, and, my
word for it, settlement will be reached
alike honorable to both sides, and better
results will follow than if strike is
entered upon"
''MoTHER" MARY JONES.
One of the most unique figures in the
present agitation is Mother" Mary
Jones, of Chicago. She has not only
every member of the United Mine Work.
ers' Union ready to strike, but her
eloquent presentation of the wrongs
suffered at the hands of the operator
has made many new members, while an
equal number are ready to follow the
union men out without formally joining
the organization.
Mrs. Jones has been working among
the soft coal miners of the Maryland
and Central Pennsylvania districts since

eSSary 20 bring about prosperous
condition, but If one thing more than
another enters into this problem it is
the amount Of money in circulation.
From time to time the reports OF the
treasury department have shown an
increase in the amount Of money in
circulation. These have served as a
theme Of the republican press, and this
lettering Of the financial condition has
been heraIded as one Of the good things
the grand old party alone can give. In
this they are generous to themselves,
so much so, indeed, as to reap where
they have not sOBn-
It viii be remembered that it has
continually been the argument Of the
populist party that more money is
eOncomitant with good times, and the
st. Louis platform in its money plank
says: ave demand that the volume Of
circulating medium be speedily in
creased to an amount sufficient to meet
the demands Of the business and pop
ulation Of this country, and to restore
the just level Of prices Of labor and
production"
Already this contention Of pOpulism
has been proved, and while the means
the issuance Of national bank notes
to the full amount Of the face Of the
bond, thereby adding millions Of dol
lars to the money volume-is thought
to be a bad sourse Of obtaining the
end, it nevertheless puts away forever
the false reasoning Of the republican
party that an increase would cheaper
the value Of our mOney-giye US so
cent dollars
The tremendous sums which have
also been expended in the prosecution
Of our wars have brought boarded
money from its hiding and put it into
service.
It is estimated that twenty-fOUr mil
lions worth Of gold has been added to
our gold production from the KIOndike
region, and this has helped to alleviate
the stringency in the money market.
The output Of the Alaskan gold has no
doubt greatly relieved the administra-
ion of William Mckinley from what
otherwise would have proved to be fin
anciaI distress, resulting in an IN
precedented exodus from that party
In a word, 1t has accomplished par
TALLY the work intended to be
done by the free coinage Of silver.
In this question Of finance, the republi-
can party is the child Of favorable cir
cumstance, over which it exerted no
influence whatever.
Still the howl goes up, I'VE did it;
the prosperity Of to-day is Of our max
ing and there is none beside US"
classification here hath wrought his
masterpiece. The republican party is
not related to prosperity, but an alien
to it.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
REPUBLICAN RErRoGREssION.

1t Is a well-knOwn principle Of hu-
man existence that a man cannot long
part with his honesty before he gives
his fellows notice Of It, however IN
willingly; and neither can a political
party, gone wrong, long hold out
against the force Of truth.
There was a time, perhaps, when the
republican party had the moral STAN
na-seeing itself in errOr-to retrench:
but it is so no more. Its every move
is a crossing Of the Rubicon. In its
madness it looks not back but to scOf
at the safe teachings by which it did
ascend.
When the unhealthy course Of the
present administration, in its depar-
ture from cOnstitutionaIIy and tradi-
tionally forbidden paths, was frowned
upon by other parties, the mouth
pieces Of McKinIeyism began to preach
my country, right or wrong" and
who'll haul down old glory"
But these elocutionary bits Of wind
were soon forced from the stand by
the sober reasoning Of the opposition.
Driven to desperation for the unjusti-
fable course Of the government toward
the Philippines, all anti-imperiaIists
were at once charged with treason
this for the purpose of soaring people
into silence If not into submission.
In opposition to the aggrandizing
tendency Of the republican party, there
has been effected In many states the
union Of forces to accomplish the end
IA view. And against this fusion Of
reform forces, comes one J. Ralph
Burton, a political wind bag, with the
declaration that in Kansas Gthe next
republican legislature VIII make fusion
a penal ofFense."
No doubt this offensive EXPRESSION is
the first public utterance Of a scheme
intended to be played wherever fusion
exists, provided the republicans are in
power. But a political party which
has sold itself wholly to the greed Of a
millionaire class; which at this time is
attempting to bring back from the
feudal ages the practice Of human
bondage; which is not abashed at the
thought Of sUbverting the institutions
Of q country founded upon Iiberty-in
a word, party that has turned its
back upon civilization-ought to be
consigned to the worlds rubbish pile
Of dead institutions.
Now, it is plain to see that the course
Of the republican party has been one
Of retrOgression. While the word
politics" means the rule Of a govern
ment BY its citizens in a becoming man
ner, the grand old party can be called
3 political organization In a bad sense
only. It has deceived the people; made
promises and broken them. The tot
tering old party now prays to the god
Of mammons to blot out the sins done
in bis days Of nature, for the day Of
judgment IS at hand
