Strike of Miners.

PIrTSBURG, PA. April From 12.OC
to 15,c00 coal miners in the Plttsburs
district and 5000 in the Irwin district are
on Il strii1e to-day. The cause of the.
trouble in the Pfttsburg district is dis
satisfaction over the dead work scale
OF the Indianapolis agreement and was
entirely unexpected. All the river miners.
were forced TO close down by the refusal
OF the men to work. and many OF the
railroad mines are idle. In the Irwin
district the miners want an advance OF
five ceTfts per ton.
Good order prevails in both districts.

DANGERS OF LYNCH LAW.

II now charge you, as guardians OF
public freedom, to protect and uphold
the dignity Of the law. and not allow
it to be thus wiif!,iiy t-anplcd upon. If
such state of aftf irs siiall exist and such
acts go unpunished. what mans
property, character or life will be secure?
The prevention of crime is the first great
object and Cause OF the institution and
in1iiction Of punishment. The higher the
the happiness and safety Of society is
tne certainty Of the intlction OF punish
ment in proportion TO the magnitude of
the offence committed. Burke says:
Justice is itself the great standing pol
icy of civil society,"
ave have row reached a period when
every one who is in lavor OF putting a
check to reckless viola ton of the law
should emphasize mis- earnestness by per-
mitting no guilty violator of the law
TO escape punishment, and we must learn
to bow to superior power Of the law, so
tletiantly transgrcssed by the angry
l.nchers on March oath, and in this
county. to accomplish their ncfarious
purposes. The life Of human being IS
100 dear to be taken except as the law
directs. 1t puts life too much at the
mercy of those who seek TO destroy it,
ard a fearful retribution awaits those
VINO take upon their souls human lie
without law and without mercy.
SOLEMN CHARGE.
NO man is to be his own avenger; the
law. in every case, affords a remedy,
and he must seek it-if not bear his lot
with patience. remembering that ven
seance belongs to the Most High, and
they who take the dispcnsation of pun
ishment in their own hands 90 it at their
peril, and instead of punishment they eN-
ecute vengeance untcmpercd with mercy.
] call upon YOU in the name of your
country. and in the name of the living
God. whose eternal justice you are now
about TO administer, to discharge your
duty without fear, prejudice or passion.
remembering You are bound by the most
sacred oaths and obligations.

The desaTtions from Bryan OF late
have beea rather numerous. and the
reasons for these regulations Of the
leader Of the free silver party are not
hard 70 discover. The prosperous con-
dltiou Of the country and the excellent
conditioned thehuances Of theIand have
served 70 show the fallacy OF the dire
predictions Of Bryan. who foretold an
sorts Of dire calamity during his SOM
bre campaign. But more than anything
else the acknowledgement Of Congress-
man Sidney ana others, who were fran
tic for the free coinage Of silver in 1895.
Of their mistake. and their assertions
that the cause Of free silver was dead,
Is due the remuneration OF the principles
advocates by the Nebraskau. These
matters were aceentuated by the vir-
tuaI admission in the senate last week
Of the representatives Of the POpulist
party in that body, Senators Butler and
Allen, tha= free coinage Of silver at Is
to was practically impossible. The
slipping away OF such men and forces
from Bryan has left the leader Of q
hopeless Democracy quite alone.
But there are other things which
have worked to this end. and that Is
Bryau's hostility to the expansion pol
icy Of the present administration. This
has operated against him in the states
Of Oregon. Washington, idaho. Mon
tana and the Dakotas, states that he
carried In 1888. Ex-senator Lee Man
tie, OK Montana, who was one OF the
free silver insurgents Of the Sc. Louis
convention. and who supported and
worked for Bryan, announced his In

can ranks he had, he said. done so with
good reason. The Republicans, he said,

Lsntx Gets a FAN.

During the past two weeks Con-
gressIonal investigation has been going
on into the Idaho labor troubles, in
which the Bryanltes have been endea-
voring to inhame the worlIingmen OF
the country by connecting the use OF
United States troops in supprasslng the
iawiessness there with a desire on the
part OF the President to opprcss labor
in that section. The whole AFFAIR has
been givea undue Importance through
the efforts OF that rank demagogus and
blathersklte, Congressman Lentz, Of
Ohio. He has worked hard to show
that the presence Of United States
troops ia Idaho ives an outrageous in
reference with the rights OF labor and
that the present administration was
guilty Of .the grossest exhibition Of
milltarism known in the history OF gov
eminent. The object Of Lsntz was OF a
piece with some Of his other antlca in
political history, but he has failed Ig-
nominiousIy.
The Democratic governor of Idaho,
when the hue and cry was first raised
about the presence Of United States
troops In his state, IN a very manly
utterance relieved the President OF all
responsibility in the matter. and shout
dering ths entire blame for such action
himselG. At that time he issued a
signed statement to this effect, and
Congressman Lentz certainly knew OF
II. HIS scheme. however. was to bring
the matter under Congressional inyes-
tlgatlon, thereby hoping, by evasion OF
the real facts and the twisting Of testI-
mony, to create an impression that a
great wrong had been done the miners
OF Idaho. But all demagogues have
their day, and the ridiculous Mr. Lents
has come to the end Of his string by
theintroductlonint the evidence before
the Congressional committee OF the Of
ticiaI request Of the Democratic gov
ernor Of Idaho for the aid OF the Fed
eral government to preserve order
which the state authorities were un-
able 10 maintain. President Mckinley
had no discretion In the matter under
the constitution. and this fact, backed
up by the unqualified statement of the
governor assuming all responsibility
for the presence OF the troops. COM

like a house Of cards, tumbles into a
