A DEAD FAILURE.

New Jerseys experiment with
state board of arbitration rs a means
OF preventing or settling labor troubles
has been lementable failure, as is
formally confessed by the members of
the beard in their annual report of
what they have dome which can be
briefly stated as Nothing. In
not one of % possible opportuni:i es
for their intervention were they call
ed upon to act by both parties at issue,
and they had no power to impose
themselves as mediators where either
of the contestants did not want them.
The commissioners sadly report that
neither labor nor capital wants ar
bitration when it thinks il can win
by its own strength, while both are
ready enough to call in outsiders when
to do so is the one chance for victory.
When a strike involves only the inter
ests of those directly engaged in it,
the commissioners doubt the propriety
of forcible arbitration, and yet they
lament the failure of the Legislature
to give them greater power. The in
consistency of this position may be
only apparent, since as matter of
fact, there are extremely few, if any,
strikes that do not impose loss or in
convenience, or both, upon many
who have nothing TO say about the
beginning or the termination of the
struggles. 1t is hardly to be supposed
that Industrial conditions in New Jer-
sey differ from those elsewhere, so it
is obvious enough that there is no use
in enacting arbitration laws like the
one in that state. The problem is to
devise something better, and until
the something better has been found,
the only hope is in the education of
both labor and capital to a clearer re-
alization of their rights and their
duties. New York Times.

In the municipal court, Saturday
morning, Maurice Leighton was ar
raigned on charge of intoXication and
given fine of 50. A hearing in an as
sault case was held at p. NJ, the
principals being Levi Bourgette and
ITstache Cloutier. 1t was claimed that
Cstache Cloutier was attacked by
BourSette and that the former received
severe punishment about the eyes and
face at the hands of the latter. Bene-
dist F. Maher appeared for the plain
tiff. Witnesses were called, who tesri-
fed that CIoutier, while coming down
the Bond Brook road was hailed by
Bourgctte and that after some words
regarding the trUsteeing of some wages
of Bourgette by Cloutier, Bourgette
made an oath and knocked Cloutier
down and afterwards hit him five OF
six times in the face. Bourgette de-
cided to appeal his case without telling
his story. whereupon counsel for the
plaintiff requested that BOurgette he
held in bonds to keep the peace. Judge
Andrews wanted till Monday to asceT-
tain the result of the wounds before
fixing any permanent bonds and held
him in temporary bonds of 5000. which
were furnished by Bourgette's brother,
William BOurgette.

An Augusta citizen, who happened to
find an old New York paper. the other
day, ran across an item, which is quite
interesting just at this time. The date
of the paper was 1881 and in the whole
sale quotations was noticed the follow
ing: Coal. s13 per ton. And another
quotation was -four, S12 per barrel.
There was also in this paper n notice,
which would be Il very absurd one If
published at this date. 1t was a notice
signed by the postmaster general per-
sonally guaranteeing the payment by
the United States government of some
contracts for carrying mail, winch
were just being entered into by the
government with private parties in
Texas. This was a time when the par
ties were questioning the credit of the
government, as then the surplus in the
treasury was not small if there was
any ut all.
