Settlement of Labor Disputes.

Boston TraVeIer.
 It is the sheerest folly to permit d state of war to exist between labor and capi- tai. All differences should be settled by pcaceable methods and in a way to se- cure the broadest justice to all. Con fiicts between employers and employed will inevitably arise, but they should be settled without inconveniencing the gen eral public and without increasing the cost of living of those not responsible for the existing differences.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1902-07-18

The people will join the former Cover nor in an honest and earnest effort to secure fair elections and honest prima- ries. which they all admit are ''so es- sential to our peace and prosperity" but they can but laugh at the idea that the new Constitution should be put into eff feet by it's enemies. the very men who Iabored so hard and so untiringly and so unreasonably in the effort to secure it's dtfeat and prevent it's ratification at ths polls What assurance is there that Gov ernor Johnston and his .cohort of ex-ofice holders and office seekers are any more the friends of the people" and would any m j-e consi fer ''the public well fare" in putting the new Constitution into effect than are those who were in strumental fin framing that document and who took so prominent a part securing its ratification. It seems to us that the new Constitution will fare better at the hands of it's friends

LAwLtssNEss AMONG NEGROES

Indianapolis Is one of the Northern cities which Is able to understand and ap- preciate the conditions which exist in many Southern communities. Last Sun day afternoon man was stabbed by some drunken negroes. and The Sentinel. in the course of an editorial allusion to the crime and the conditions responsible for it. says:
 As The Sentinel has stated heretofore there is no pretense Of enforcing the liquor laws against these negro dives. They are open all night and all day Sun day. and attract the vicious element for blocks around. Drunken men and women pass through the streets at all hours of the night singing. swearing, lighting and shocking decent ears by their obscenity. The condition is notorious, and 1t has been getting worse continually.
 Tn almost any city in the South will be found numbers of Idle and absolute me- groes who can only be kept reasonably within bounds by constant vigilance of the authorities and officers. If, as seems to be the case in Indianapolis, negro bar rooms and dives in Montgomery were kept open all night and on Sundays as well. conditions would soon become url- hearable Many negroes who are sober and quiet on Sunday would be drunk and auarrelsome if the way was open. Let a few dives run in full blast in this city on Sundays and it would be but short while till the citizens would be compelled to close them by force, if necessary.
 It Is quite likely that the proportion Of idle and Iawless negroes Is much greater In Indianapolis than here. The prejudice against them there keeps them out of work. even if they desire to work. and the natural result of idleness among ne- groes is lawlessness. If they have no honest employment they are sure to fall into dishonest habits and when the fa- ciiities for getting drunk exist as indicated by The Sentinel the worst results are sure to follow. What occurs in Indianapolis would occur here under like conditions.

learning that there were several slot
machines in various places in the
city he summoned Deputy U. S.

machines and threw them out into
the street and demolished them with

$500 in nlckels and quarters. The
property destroyed was valued at
$1,000.
The best citizens of the town are
elated over the transaction, and hope
it may result in stopping the use of
those machines in the city.
One of the men, knowing Of the
presence of the attorney took time
by the forelock and shipped two OF
his most valuable machines to Okla.

There were several warrants issued

Number of Strikers in Anthracite Coal Fielos
Increased

Wilkebsarre, Pa, June 5.-There
were no developments or incidents of
special mention in the anthracite coal
miners strike today. The minew ork
ers tried hard to bring out additional
engineers, iremen and pump runners,
and the companies we're equally earn
est in their efforts to hold the employees
that have been loyal to them. The
union succeeded in getting out quite a
number of men and one or two colleries
were compelled to shut down their
pumps because of lack of men, but in
all other cases the Operators were able
to fill vacancies by drawing on their re-
serve forces of Office and other employees.
The mine owners declare that thus far
they have employed very few non union
men, and have plenty of workers to
draw on.
The entire coal belt remains compar-
atively quiet, although disturbances of
a minor nature are becoming more fire.

BAD TRAIN WRECK.
Southern Pacific Passenger Train Derailed
by Open Switch Two Killed.

Redding, Cal, June 5.-The south
bound Oregon express, on the Southern
Pacific road, which left Redding at
10 AS o'clock last night, was wrecked
about Is minutes later, near Clay
creek, four miles from this city.
The accident was caused by half
open switch, which had evidently been
left in that condition by some unknown
person. The train is what is known
as double header, having two engines,
and was running at a good rate of
speed, as it was on a down grade.
Both engines were thrown into the
ditch and completely wrecked.
Engineer J. NJ. White and Fireman n
Fred Laffel, of the forward engine, were
thrown under the engine and crushed
to death, their bodies being fearfully
mangled. A force is working to recov-
er their remains, which are still under
the engine with which they went down
to death.
The mail car was thrown across the
track. All the coaches were ditched.,
A number of the passengers, were
more or less injured, but SO far as can
be learned, none were killed.

how the ReVolUtlonlStS Slew an Army OF
Columbian Regulars.
Kingston, Jamaica, June 4.-The
British steamer Atrato arrived here
from Colon, Columbia. She reports
that there was heavy fighting at Bocas
del Toro last week. The revolutionists
are said to have mined the town of
Bocas. While the government troops
were marching into Bocas to recapture
it, the mines we're expl oded and almost
all of the government soldiers. killed.
The revolutionists still remain in pos
session of Bocas. Colon and Panama
are the only towns on the isthmus now
in the control Of the government and
troops are being poured into these two
ports with the hope of stemming the
revolutionary advance.
The revolutionists are winning so
much sympathy upon every hand that
the government has decided to reorgan-
ize its forces. The Atrato carried 40
government field officers from Savailla
to Colon, including General Guiveras,
who has been selected, it is rumored,
as the new governor of Panama The
revolution in the isthmus now greatly
hampers the fruit business there and
it is impossible to predict when quiet
will be restored.

that they must advance salaries so per
cent all around or face a strike. One
firm three years ago paid employees So
per week, and is now paying them $50
weekly. The firm says further ad-
vance is impossible. 1t is the intention
of Isabelo de Los Reys, the organ izer
of labor associations here, to secure an
increase of wages in all trades or force

alarmed at the outlook. They say
Filipino labor costs more now, in pro-
portion to the results, than American
labor. The wages are now from Eve
to 10 times higher than under the
