The Balance-sheet of a Strike.

New 4orS World.
 The close of the trolley-car strike in Waterbury, Conn, was marked by public reJoiclngs People tEronged the streets, cheering the labor leaders and the off cials ot the company with equal fervor It was a happy occasion, until one ex- amines the balance sheet.
 The strike lasted seven months. It cost Connecticut $30.C00 to call out the militia and check the rioting. 1t cost the unions S3,000 and individual workmen much more It cost the company $200000, and what the city lost in trade can never be reckoned It was the direct cause of one murder and numerous outrages that stained the name of the Hand of steady habits"
 The trouble began because three men were discharged for drunkenness and on other charges. They do not get their places back. Neither do eight men recently placed on trial for murderous assault Of seventy others sixteen retpEn to work st full pay, fourteen as ''trippers' and forty will be taken on as fast as possi- ble.l The seven months pay Is dead loss even to the fortunate sixteen.
 The "setIlement" settles nothing. Il leaves bad blood and leads to insult and assaulC upon the new employees. The dec laYation of peace was itself a signal foI renewed wal The only question involved whether the three men were discharged with sufficient cause-is as far from dis passionate adjustment as ever, unless might does make right.
 pess .str'lslng pay? Is not arbitration preferable?

MT. Bryan's Lost Influence.

Detroit Free Press. (Ind. Dem).
 Re When MT. Bryan. in his speech at Ur- bana, O.. called Mir. Cleveland "a bunko steerer," and declared that the national convention of 1892 played a confidence game on the people," he betrayed the des- peration of the political gambler who finally realizes that the cards are running iHopelessly in his opponents favor. Bit rbgs bit, MT. Bryan has seen his power waI1e and his political influence dwindle away until he Is frantic with rage. With too much self-complacency to attribute this loss of prestige to his own conduct, he has been seeking external sources of evil influence. and seem to find in MT. Cleveland the wicked spirit that has con iured his followers. Straightway, he leaves everything to begin 0ersonal as- sault upon MT. Cleveland, and the coarse ness of his language reveals the bitter ness of his disappointment.

Letter of Chief Justice Peck to Hon.
 Thos. J, Judge,

Below The Advertiser reprints from its issue of September 26, 1889. letter from Chief Justice Peck to Hon. Thos. J. Judge, about the incident on which The Mobile Herald bases it's main attack up- on Judge Jones. The letter was dated In November, 1874. and was written to Judge Judge who was then a member of the newly elected Democratic Supreme Court It reads as follows:
 Writing is some labor at my time of life. yet endeavor to answer your que
 Your impressions relative to Major Jones's appointment are altogether cor rect. Danner, Republican, resigned the re- portership in 1870 Holding the opinion, as l did, that politics had nothing to do with such office, my brethren were pre- sumed to have like mind; agreed to ap- point any fit person recommended by the bar. My purpose was. by this means. to beget closer relations with the bar, and to counteract the general impression that we carried politics to extremes, even on the bench. So it was. Jones, a Democrat, was recommended and appointed. The office was not peddled out to him on con- ditions in respect of his future course; self-respect forbade that Jones was al- needlessly so. inasmuch as his course during the Smith Lindsay contest, and the organization of the Legislature two years ago. moved McKinstry and other Repub- licans to insist on his removal; yet had my own way and kept him.
 ''On July 4. 1870. the Supreme Court was invited to a celebration of the day, and I asked him to go with us. He objected; :; l observed 1t was not in any just, proper sense a party meeting; if 1t was, judicial propriety would keep me away-that it was a national celebration, and men of all parties ought to go. He replied he would resign before he would go; that his going would be misunderstood. told him there were special reasons; after hearing them he might go or stay, as he choses without interrupting our official relations.
 My special reasons were: Justice Pe- ters expected an appointment from the President, and Joness appointment by the court was being used to injure PetefA I reminded Jones of this; told him, if known that he would not attend, off, celebration, further use would be made of his connection with the Court to crip pie Peters. who. at my instance, had helped him: that resigning would not at all better it.I spoke plainly; told him if he should be misunderstood, as he appre- hended, 1t was sacrifice of feeling, not of principle. and no greater sacrifice than We had already made on his ac- count. He then said If asked it on that ground he would go; that he would not allow friend to do for him what he would not do for friend. He rode in a carriage with the judges to the place of celebration, and then returned without taking any part. So you perceive, from what I have stated, his going shows a fine sense of honor, and not a change of the convictions that he always avowed. y

 There Is no doubt that the public char ity accounts in large measure for the ability of Mir.

SENATOR ooRMAN's PLATFORM
Not Strong Enough on the Tariff for
 the Present.
Birmingham News.

No one with the slightest familiarity with the career of Senator German would accuse him of lack of astuteness. He is universally recognized as a keen observer and a shrewd manager. In recognition Of his ability upon his return to the Senate his party associates immediately elevated him to leadership.
 Senator Germans opinions. therefore. upon political questions are worth more than passing consideration. Recently he proposed a platform for the party and 1t was like this:
 The Democratic Party in it's next national platform. should pledge itself
 ITO stop the collection of more revenues than are required to conduct the Govern
 ITO revise the tariff in a spirit of con- servatism and with purpose to make our industries more prosperous, and not to wreck any of them, I'd
 That the tariff plank in the platform of 1884 should be adopted, and that tha revision of the tariff should be the, isste
 The first provision is unquestionably Democratic to the core, and will be ac- cspted without protest as recognized principle of the party. The second plank, though probably not so radical as some tariff reformers would wish, still gives a latitude for revision, and for that reason would be acceptable to great majority
 The third plank is one. however upon which German differs widely from his CO., Democrats.
 straddle. If 1t meant anything it was an endorsement of the protection policy of the Republicans. The Democrats won in that campaign. but it was in spite of their platform.
 The tariff ideas of the Democrats has passed beyond the 1884 stage. The plat form of 1892 expresses more nearly the Democratic idea and it was bill formed in accordance with that platform which Senator German, emasculated in the Sen ate.
 While by all means the Democratic Party should pull away from the dis should not by any means be so conserv- ative as to become colorless. There must be some issue between the parties other than the mere getting of the offices. The majority of Democrats believe an issue should be made upon the tariff and trusts Senator German Is discreetly silent upon the trusts and a straddler upon the tar lg. His platform smacks of the opportun-

Pacific Coast Lumber.
MinneapolIs Tribune.

M1nnedpOuS 1TlDuDe.
 Lumbermen of the Pacific Coast are in despair because they foresee an overpro- duction of 1000, ,000, 900 feet next year. The industry was over estimated by the heavy export demand a few years ago. Though that has fallen off greatly, the lumber men continue to increase their output During the last year 256 new saw mills were built in the Puget Sound and Co., lumbia River country. The mills of the State of Washington alone are said to have a capacity of over 2,500.0O0.O00. Local consumption and the coasting trade have not kept pace with this increase of con- sumption, and lumbermen are asking themselves what they are going to do with the surplus.
 There are two things to do. Of course, they can organize a trust and limit the output to the demand. That would save them from loss, and would please the people who lament the destruction of the American forests. But these people are not very noisy on the Pacific coast, where the destruction of forests has only be- gun, and 1t is said that the fir of the country renews itself in a human genera tion. The other recourse is to let the pro duction keep up and seek new markets. If these new markets can be found at home this will have the double advan- tage of keeping the mills busy, and les sening the destruction of forests in parts Ol Ine country tilCy OO So well spared.
 The lumbermen of the Pacific Coast are coming half way to meet MT. HilPs plan for a low rate that will enable them to sell their product east of the Missouri. and perhaps even east of the Mississippi River. The union of the Burlington with the Northern Pacific and Great Northern railroads opeps an enormous field of tree less country reaching from Kansas to Dakota and from Illinois to Montana to the lumber coast. The Burlington in par ticular, with its network of little feeders, penetrates to almost every part of great consuming country now supplied either from the Great Lakes or from the Gulf States. The coast lumbermen are asking for a rate of 70 cents hundred, on which they say they can ship 5000 carloads an- nuaIly. Perhaps this movement has some connection with the talk of the milling in transport rate on Northwestern wheat to Asia. Mir. Hi1 is always looking out for full cars both ways.

There was once a man namel Simmons who was tried in the United States Court in New York.

ist. What Is needed fs a platform of principle, a magnetic platform that will array the friends of honest government and fair play an equal chance before the law in solid phalanx.
 To straddIe the tariff question is to miss an opportunity. The exactions of Dingleyism have been so outrageous and unjust that even in the ranks of rock ribbed Republicans there are signs of disnteg grafton.
 Senator German should revise his plat form. and instead of an insipid declara- ton frame a call to arms.
 The Democracy have to fight to win and to fight they must have something worth fighting for.

200 Years Of Yachting.
From the London Chronicle.


Though vessels answering to the charac-
ter of yachts were in use by royal person
ages from an early date-Queen Elizabeth.
for instance, had one built at Cowes, Isle Of
Wight, in 15SS-the word yacht was not
used until the year 1860. when the Dutch
presented "jacht'' named the Mary to
Charles IL. In Evelyn's Diary, under Octo-
Der /, 1861, occurs the entry:'I sailed this
morning with his majesty In one Of his
yachts, vessels not known among us till the
Dutch East India Company presented that
curious piece to the king, being very ex-
cellent sailing vessels"
Yacht racing commenced In 1862, when
Charles II, who had some yachta built for
him by Sir Phineas PETIT, wa9ered $500 that
yacht of his would beat Dutch one
owned by his brother, the Duke Of York,
afterward James II. But the growth of
yacht sailing was slow, and 1t Is not until
1920 that an authentic record Of a yacht
club is found, in which year the Cork Har-
Dor Water Club-now known as the Royal
Cork Yacht Club-was formed. In 1912 q
similar club. the Yacht Club, was formed at
Cowes by some fifty yachtsmen This club
in 1920 attracted the notice of the Duke of
Clarence, afterward William ", when its
title was altered to the Royal Yacht Squad
ron, Cowes. Fourteen years later William
~ presented the first royal cup to this club
But in 1851 only 500 yachts were in exist
