81 AM WITH YOU BOYS"

Mayo Taylor, of Richmond, in an
address to the strikers the other day,
is quoted as having said:
81 am with you, boys, and have been
with you all along. You see me walk
every day, and shall continue to walk
rs long as the strike Lasts
The esteemed Roanoke Times in COM
menting on this utterance says:
This from the chief executive officer
OF mob-ridden, mob-terrorized city!
How about it? What do the law re-
specting citizens of Richmond think of
such declaration? This nature of
utterance, under the conditions now ex-
isting in our capital city, would have
been highly inopportune and unbe
coming if made by private citizen;
but proceeding out of the mouth of 4
man clothed with high official station
whose first and sworn duty is to main
tain the peace of his community, it is
grossly reprehensible, and deserves
! severest condemnation"
| There are few. law-abiding citizens
but will echo the sentiment expressed
by The Times and join in condemning
| the mayor for the utterance of which ne
| delivered himself There is another
side to the question, however, which
seems not to have received attention,
and that is the ia of the troops having
| been called out. AS far as we have been
able to see or find out, all the trouble
| that has occurred has been since the
troops have arrived on the scene, and
there is strong probability that if
| they had not been called out the mat
ter of the strike might have been ami
cably adjusted with ut the display of
force. 1t is all very well to protect the
property of the corporations of the
state; but it is fact that. appearances
to the contrary Notwithstanding, the
people who belong to the laboring class
have some rights, and it might be well
to find out to what extent they have
been wronged before the governor, who
| made such strenuous objections to cor
porations before his election, should be
so active in their behalf afterwards.
There are always two sides to a ques-
ton, and peaceable settlement is al.
ways preferable tho one of force OF
arms.-Danville Bee.

WOMEN IN ENGLAND.

Emigration, war and other causes are
producing in England preponderance
of females over males which is dis
quieting to students of social problems.
OF the total population of 32,527, S43
persons in England and Wales, 16, 799,-
230 are females and 15,72S,613 are
males. And the relative proportion of
females is steadily increasing, having
gained by about per cent in the last
forty years, showing that the existing
relation is not an accidental or mo-
mentary condition, but exists in ODE
d.ence to natural law. The statis-
ties of marriage also reveal some sur
prising facts. To every six married
persons in England there are eleven
unmarried and one widowed of both
sexes, and there are more than two
widows for every widower. This would
seem to show that the expectancy"
of the married woman was somewhat
greater than that of the married man.
Perhaps it does, but one is confused by
the discovery that six wives and eight
widows are credited with having pass
I'd the century mark, while ten nus
bands and thirty-two widowers have
done the same. A mans chances OF
great longevity as compared with a
| woman's would thus seem to be as for
ty-tWo to fourteen. The most interest
| ing fact is, perhaps, the large number
of widower centenarians. The conclu-
sion might be reached that man
bears the grief of marital bereavement
better than woman does, and those
who may find this thought interesting
may draw from it what conclusions
they prefer.
Leaving children out of account and
reckoning only those old enough to
shift for themselves, there are in Eng
land today, according to the census,
over million more women than men.
This is not because the birth returns
show that more girls are born than
boys. Indeed, the boys show a pre-
dominance of births over deaths of
1878 per cent, while the girls show only
IL per cent A sufficient explanation is
that more boys emigrate in one way
or another than girls. Also that more
men are killed by accident, by over
exertion and exposure and by vicious
indulgence in intoxicants.-New York
Times.

HANNA is STILL IN BUSINESS.

Cleveland, o., July 7.-Referring te
the story printed yesterday in effect
that Senator NJ A. Hanna had dis
posed of all his business interests pre-
paratory to devoting his entire time
to public affairs, D. R. Hanna, a son
of the senator and a member of the
firm of M. A. Hanna & Co., said:
'The impression conveyed by this
report is entirely incorrect and unjust.
Senator Hanna has within the past few
years relieved himself of the burden OF
principal attention to business details
but aside from this there is no founda-
ton for the statement. The firm O
M. A. Hanna & Co., has not been af
fected in the slightest. On the con
trary, our business interests and con
nections are larger today thar the
have ever been and the senator's inter
fsts are the same"
Senator and Mrs. Hanna left Cleve
land yesterday for Jersey City, wher
they expected to board the privat
yacht of c. A. Griscom for a cruis
along the Atlantic coast.

WILL PRoLoNG FIGHT.

A Richmond dispatch concerning the
length of time the strike may last
and the resources of the men, officials
of the union says they hope for al
early settlement, but the men are de-
do get a settlement with the company
do get settlement with he company
no matter how long it takes. The
members, officials say, will not declare
the strike off as long as there re-
mains a sufficient number to hold the
charter, and this number has a griev-
ance against the company There are
at present four strikes, including this
one, being conducted by the National
Association, in which about 1000 men
are involved. They are at Waterbury
and Bridgeport, Conn; Dubuque, la !.
and South Bend, Ind.
The Amalgamated Association has
)ver 10000 members, all of whom can
be called on for an assessment up to
81 a week for five weeks to replenish
the defense fund of the organization.
which amounts to 100000. This fund
is kept for the benefit OF members on
strike.
In additional to their national asso-
citation, the members on strike have
over 200 national and international
trades unions with which they are
affiliated, on whom to call for moral
and financial support, and as branch
of the American Federation of Labor.
they have over 100000 organized wage
earners on whom to call for funds.
Under the laws of that body an as
sessment of 10 cents a week may be
levied ON the entire membership fol
three consecutive weeks. This levy
may be made to support any strike that
the executive board of the American
Federation of Labor may deem neces-
sary. By this means one assessment
would raise 100000 and the three as
easements would raise $500, 900 or near
y $1,000 for each member on strike
here.
The national officials of the union
here have already been informed thai
the Manufacturers National Associa-
ion is backing the company here. and
they, as we'll ais officials of other ma.
ltional trade unions, the men say. are
IS much interested in this strike as
their own officers.
Practically all the affiliated national
unions have large defense funds, rang.
ing from 100000 to 81 ZOO, 900; the
United Mine Workers and the Flint
Glass Workers are among the organi-
cations having $1,000 900 defensive
funds. There is now no doubt thai

MINISTER ASKED TO RESIGN.

A Richmond dispatch says: One pas
tor of that city is reported to be in a
fair way to receive request from his
congregation to vacate on account of his
attitude regarding the street-car strike.
The church, whose pulpit he fills, is
one of the largest in the city, and has
a regular attendance of about five hun
dred persons every Sunday, besides
a Sabbath school of huge proportions.
The pastor of the church has been one
of those who has, on former occasions,
undertaken the settlement of disputes,
in which the laboring class was a
party. His church is largely made up
Of those who earn their living by the
sweat of their brows. They are noted
for their constant attendance upon
ch',rch and lilio.al contributions to all
. igious work. Ire petition asking
his resignation is said to have received
already the signatures of many of the
9embers. SO far it has not been pre-
scented. The alleged grievance of the
congregation lies in the fact that the
pastor has ridden on the street cars
during the strike.

HICKS REPORT
FOR JULY.

A noticeable tendency to cloudiness
will prevail during most of the time
from the LIST to the 10th. The denom-
mating Mercury influence will strength
len the tendency to rain and stormi-
ness on and touching the End and
Ord, and prolong state of cloudiness
beyond the normal limits of the per-
iod Very warm, muggy weather will
prevail during these disturbances, but
a very probable change to cooler will
pass over the country from west to
cast between the 4th and 9Th
The second storm period covers the
7th to the 18th, being central on the
9th. Growing warmth and increasing
cloudiness and humidity will mark the
the first days OF this period, progress
sively from west to east, and from
about the 9th to the 18th decided
storm areas will organize and pass
eastward across the country. Thun-
der storms, with wind and rain, will
strike many localities during the pro-
gress of these storm conditions.
Westerly winds, clearing and cooler
will come between these disturbances
and the reactionary perturbations dell
about the 14th and 18th. On these
dates look for marked change to war
mer with more wind, rain and thun-
der
A regular storm period is central
on the goth, extending it's influence
from the 18th to the 23rd, normally.
However, the fact that the Moon is
10th new and in perigee on the oath
will greatly tend to increase and pro-
.ong very high temperature, and very
probably the storms forward into the
reactiOnary period central on the 25th
touching the 9th, many active cleo
trical storms are more than probable
the crisis of summer heat will be nat

ANY careful observer may soon sat
isfy himself that increase in tenn
perature, as a rule, attends the con-
junction of Sun, Earth and Moon, also
that the passage of the Moon over
the celestial equator brings increased
warmth and electrical disturbances.
Hence the new Moon, or Moon in con-
junction with Earth and Sun-being
nearest the Earth also-falling on the

Goth and 27th
One of the warmest waves in July
may reasonably be counted on from
about the oath to the 9th. On and

CLOUDBURST
AT WINCHESTER

Reports from Winchester of the dam
age done by the cloudburst which
visited that section last Monday show
that the losses will foot up thousands
of dollars. Crops, stone fences and
dwelling were swept away, not train
is being run ON the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad owing to washouts, cattle were
drowned and a number of narrow es-
capes from drowning were experienced.
At Jordan White Sulphur Springs
the lighthouses, spring houses and en-
CINE house were swept away and the
lower floor of the main hotel was COW
cred with a foot of water. Two en-
gineers there, both by name of Dixon,
were caught in the engine house by
the sudden volume of water. They ran
to the top floor, chopped hole Ill
the roof and escaped by reaching a
tree and climbing to the top where
| they waited until rescued.
The coludburSt was local, with Ste
| phensons as centre and extended in
1 a radius only about six miles on the
| Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Three
washouts occurred, one embankment
three feet long being lifted up bodily
Isby an immense volume of water and
| carried into field, leaving an excaya-
ton twenty-five feet deep.
A train was caught between two Of
the washouts and the rear of the train
was swept away by sudden washout
Immediately beneath the cars.
Four hundred excursionists from
Washington and Baltimore were taken
over the Cumberland Valley railroad to
Martinsburg, w Va, and thence sent
to their homes. Among the excursion
lists unable to get away on this train
were officials of the treasury depart
ment, Safe Deposit Company, Kernan's

SAYS BRYAN WILL HAVE NO SAY.

In my opinion" said Congressman
Harry Maynard, of Virginia. at the
New Willard, ''the delegates from the
Southern States in the next Demo-
cratic National Convention will say
to their brother Democrats from the
North: Name any man you choose,
with whom you believe the party has
good chance to win, and we of the
South will accept him and deliver him
our electorate votes
What Mr.. Bryan will or will not
do in the next campaign appears to
me question of not great Importance.
Should he not like the nominee and
refuse his support of the ticket, I i'm
agine the Democratic party will not be
vitality wounded. The States in which
he may have some remaining influ-
ence are of no use to the Democracy
anyway, for they can be relied on in
advance to indorse the Republican
candidate.
Personally, favor Senator Cor
man, as nearly all men do who know
him, but | would not regret to see
Judge Parker named in the New York
Democrats insist upon having him. II
neither of these great and capable men
suits Mr.. Bryan, well and good; we
must try in that event to get on with
out his assistance The platform of
the Democracy is going to be adjust
ed to live issues, and it will follow
lines that will attract the confidence.
and support of the solid business men
