THE FLORENCE STRIKE.

Crystal Falls citizens who visited
florence last Monday witnessed lively
time in the old town When the train
arrived the sheriff Of Florence county,
followed py 80 to 70 miners were at
the depot TO arrest Felix A. Yogel. a
representative Of the New York stock
holders in the Florence mine Mr.
Vogel wasarrested and brought into jus
tice court on the charge OF carrying
concealed weapons. A little inquiry
developed the following story of the
affair
Mr.. Vogel brought new order Of
things TO Florence with his arrival, but
in putting them into effect he lacked
that tact which is 50 necessary to the
successful welding of executive au-
thority. This deficiency soon brought
down upon his head the censure Of all
and the bitter dislike of the laboring
men. One thing lead to another, the
pot Of discomfort simmering all the
time, until the removed of the miBe
physician, Dr. Hansher. caused the
wrath of the men 90 bpil over a Pc
tition signed by every man in the mine
with one exception. was presented to
Mr.. Nogel asking that the Doctor be
reinstated This he refused when
the men asked il the usual deduction
was 70 be made from their pay at the
end Of each month tor doctor services.
adding that as they and not the min
ing company had to pay the doctor,
they proposed TO say whom should be
hired. Mr.. Vogel took the matter un-
der consideration and Wednesday in
formed them that the usual charge
for doctor services would not be kept
out of their pay This satisfied the
men on the doctor question and then
they at once formed an association, ell
ected officers and hired their old ply
sician ON the same terms as when ne
was the regularly credentialed mine
physician.
On Friday of the same week six of
the men who were prominent in the
doctor agitation were dismissed from
the service of the mining company
On.Saturday morning they waited on
Mr.. Vogel and asked the reason for
their discharge II is claimed that Mr
Vogel drew gun and drove the men
out Of the Office. Then the passions
of the men were aroused TO fever heat
and in the interval between Saturday
and Monday the talk Of strike was
circulated. Mr.. Vogel heard that the
men were intending to strike and gave
orders to Supt Battle 10 suspend oper-
ations Monday The men in some way
heard Of the contemplated move, as
sembled early Monday morning and de-
clared strike. Every man went ont
and they proceeded 10 the boiler house
where they pulled the fires and allowed
the pumps to go dead.
Mr. Vogel had business at Iron Monn.
tain and was at the depot TO take tho
train when, the men, fearing he might
escape their vengeance. caused his ar
rest as mentioned.

to miSrepreSent and to belittle and be-
lie, even through the instrumentality
of the most vile tools, the men who
are really fighting 1reland's battle at
home, and those who honestly en-
deavor to aid them here; numerous
good patriotic camps have been sus-
pended and driven out, and thousands
of old and tried members of the Or
ganiZation have been expelled because
they would not be browbeaten into
the acceptance of this unconstitution
al, unwarranted and vicious order;
and everywhere the seeds of dissen-
sion and discord are being sown
among our people-in word, it would
almost seem as if the leaders of this
organization have succeeded in find
ing out just what England wants
done, and that they are doing it."
We will only say by way of COM
ment on the foregoing utterance of
Patrick Egan that the Irish physical
force men in this country are not
entirely to blame for their inaction dur
ing the South African war. The
writer of this article ascertained
from Boer delegates to the United
States that they anticipated no aid
from the Irish and consequently had
made no preparations for their recep-
ton in South Africa, even if they had
gone there. The only thing for the
Irish to have done was to have been
in South Africa before the issuance
Of Kruger's ultimatum. After the
outbreak of hostilities they could not
have landed without encountering
great risks and British men-of-war
We're on the lookout for them. We do
not believe with Mr.. Egan that Eng
lands difficulty with the Beers was
Ireland's opportunity, so far as Ire
lands freedom from British rule is
concerned. The opportunity will
come later, and when it comes the
Irish should not allow it to pass by.
We are extremely sorry that all
Irishmen in this country cannot bury
their differences for the time being,
and assist the oppressed tenant farm
ers of Ireland in their gallant fight
against felonious landlordism. There
are plenty of Irishmen outside of the
Clan-na-Gael who can join the United
Irish League. Only small fraction
of the Irish in America belongs to
that organization.
Joseph Chamberlain is reported to
have said that England has no cause
to dread Irish societies in America. If
the leaders of the societies bring about
dissensions in the ranks, England
need not be alarmed. An attempt is
being made to split up the A. O. II. on
the question of the United Irish
League. AS the official organ of
that patriotic order in Minnesota we
would earnestly suggest that all eX-
traneous matters be kept out of the
meetings. The members of the order
should see to it that all disturbers and
mischiefmakers are properly dealt
with. AS individuals, they are at lib
erty to join any organization for the
promotion of Ireland's rights in par
lament or elsewhere.

FOLLOWERS OF KING WILLIAM.

We confess to satisfaction with the
triumph of Mr.. Il. II. Sloan, the new
member for Sandy Row. Mr.. Sloan
is a type of the worst class of Orange
bigot. He embodies all the benghted
prejudices of the extreme ascendency
man. lie would, if he could, re-enact
the penal laws and forbid religious
liberty. Poor old William Johnston of
Ballykilbeg was but a false copy of
the type whom his successor truly rep
resents. He is pledged to vote for the
inspection of converts, the refusal of
university education to Irish Catholics,
the denial of state help to the Catholic
voluntary schools of England. Yet we
welcome his return to THE House of
Commons, not merely because it will
reveal to an astonished public what
real OrangeiSm is and what Is the
true character of genuine Irish Union
ism, but because it is a victory of hon
esty over dishonesty, of merely bllna
prejudice over open-eyed hypocrisy, of
the Orange democrat over the Orange
smob, and of the Protestant working
man over the party of silk -hatted kid
gloved landlordism and capitalism,
that has fiattered and fed the bigotry
which has now turned and rent them,
says the Dublin Freeman.
From the Catholic point of view
there was not a pin to chose between
Mr.. Z. II. Sloan and Mr.. Dunbar-Bul-
ler. The latter, who had posed as
Liberal-Unionist in Devonshire, bios
somed into a full-blown Orangeman
when he approache the neighborhood
of the Belfast ustings. He did his
best to learn the litany Of Orange as
tendency. He was ready, in return
for Orange votes, to repudiate all his
former Liberalism and to pledge him
self to meekly obey the most degrading
mandates of the Protestant Associa-
ton. Had Mr.. Dunbar-3uller been
asked would he vote for the delivery
of Cardinal Logue's head on charger
to the lambs of Sandy Row he would
have said Yes if it would only Sc
cure his election.
Such degrading exhibition of dis
honest pandering to benighted preju-
dices was never before witnessed at
an election, as Mr.. Dunbar Buffers re-
plies to the Orange ltecklers. If we
are to have an Orange party give us
party of honest Olangemen, not a
party of place-hunters and rack-rent-
ers, who keep alive this Orange preju-
dice for their own selfish interests.
Mr.. Sloan is at least a democrat and
a Trades Unionist, pledged to the labor
programme. His victory means the
victory of the Orange workingman
over the political tricksters who have
been trading in his prejudices for their
own ends, while they hold him and
his opinion in the most utter con-
tempt. The sooner the Orange democ-
racy begins to think and act for itself,
the sooner will it discover how it has
been exploited in the interests of a
] selfish class.
