she gets in close quarters with——
well just one.
—The claim of Democratic victory in
Illinois this fall does not seem unreason-
able when we look at it in the light of
the present supremacy of Democracy in
that state. A United States Senator,
fourteen of the twenty Congressmen, a
Legislative majority and a 10,000 majori-
ty at the last election augurs something
at least. -
—This has certainly been a year of
disaster. Floods, famine, fires, earth-
quakes, strikes and many other agents
of destruction have spread their pall over
various parts of the world, but all the
woe they have caused is almost repaid
in the miracle that has been enacted at
Tamaqua, where a poor country editor
has fallen heir to an estate worth $100,-
000.
—The Northumbertand Democrat
strikes the key note of the situation
when it chides the Senate on the hypoc-
risy which closes its eyes to the Sunday
work on the World's Fair buildings,
while it tries to stop the opening of the
Fair on the Sabbath. The Sunday of
’92 is surely as hallowed as that of '93
will be after the opening of the great ex-
hi rition.

Can't Fasten It There.
Since the murderous assault on pres-
ident Frick of the Carnegie company,
by the anarchist Berkman, the Repub-
lican press of the country, which, i1sal-
ways ready to charge ali the wrongs
and outrages committed to the account
of organized labor, have been insidu-
ously and earnestly laboring to connect
the cowardly work of this assassin,
with the Homestead troubles, and to
have the workingmen - of the country
primarily held responsible for the das-
tardly deed.
In this effort they may be success-
ful, so far as men are concerned who
want to believe that way, but upon
sensible people and the public generally,
their insinuations and conclusions will
fall without effect.
Although the feeling toward Mr.
Frick on the part of the workingmen
in his own employ, as well as those
who sympathize with them, has been
anything but cordial for years, yet he,
nor those about him have ever felt that
his life or his person were in any dan-
ger, whatever. He has gone to and
from his business, without molestation;
has been among his men, seeing to the
interest of his firm, when ‘excitement
ran highest and the feeling between
them was bitterest, without fear or pro-
tection ; and has'had his office in ithe
busiest and most crowded part of Pitts-
burg, accessible at all times to all per-
sons, and never had reason to suspect.
bodily harm from any one connected
with the organization with which he
now has the differences, To attempt
to cast the odium of the erazy act of a
foreign anarchist upon the men at
Homestead, or to connect it with the
efforts of labor to secure reasonable pay
tor responsible and constant work, is a
job that even the advocates of monopo-
lists, ‘and © the, supporters. of that
system of government that makes mill:
ionaires at owe end and: paupers at the
other, will be unable to accomplish, or
make even reasonable head way in.
If we go back to the primary causes,
that have filled our country with the
crazy-cranks, who arecommitting such
deeds as BEREMAN is guilty of, we will
find them in the fact of too-lax immigra-
tion laws, and too great a willingness
on the part of protected employers to
take advantage of them in the importa-
tion of free trade labor, no matter from
what European country it can be se-
cured. Two fifths of the howling anar-
chists in this country to-day, were
brought here by companies, such as
that of which Mr. Frick is the represen-
tative, to take the place of our native
and naturalized laborers, when these
companies wanted to reduce wages and
their employees protested against it.
To-day the CARNEGIE company will
place in its mills at Homestead, Anar-
chistes, Nihilists, Autonomists or the
rag-tag and-bob-tail of all Europe, in
preference to enlightened, honest, native
or naturalized workmen who belong
to or believe in organized labor. In
hundreds of mills in this country, that
and profiting by the protection the gen-
eral government is giving them,the ver-
iest crank from the old World who
believes neither 1a the right of proper:
ty, peace, God, devil or anything else,
can find employment, if he would work,
when law-abiding, intelligent and well
meaning workmen «of this country
would be turned away, because they
refused to foreswear their labor organi-
zations. '
Is it to be wondered at then that we
have reached the condition of affairs
that now confronts us ? That there are
BERKMANS in every town, and danger
at every turn. That honest labor, os-
tracized, is restless, and that crimes,
guch as that of Saturday last,are on the
increase? And would it not be better
for all, if the Republican press and pro-
tected employers would have the maan-
liness to place the fault where it be-
longs to greed and their methods of do.
ing business,rather than to the labor or-
ganizations, that. repudiate and de-
nounce such outrages as bitterly as
does capital.

- Disgracing the Militia
There has poseibly been no more
brutal, barbarous or disgraceful out-
rage perpetrated within the State of
Pennsylvania, since the indians were
estopped gibbiting white pecple on the
sharpened ends. of hickory saplings,
than that committed on private Iaxs,
by order of Colonel StrEATOR and ap-
proved by General Sxowpex and Col.
Hawkins at the military camp, at
Homestead, on Saturday last.
Foolishly, or idiotically it might be
termed, young Iams proposed “three
cheers for the man who shot Frick.”
STREATOR overheard it, and at once or-
dered out his regiment, had Iams plac-
ed under arrest and, without trial,hung
up by the thumbs until unconscious,
and when sufficiently recovered shaved
one half his head and face, stripped
him of his uniform and in blue dril-
ling over-alls and check shirt,drammed
him out of camp, the whole cowardly
and brutal proceedings being endorsed
and approved by the commanding of-
ficer, SNOWDEN.
We had thought that the days of
inhuman and barbarous punishment
had passed. That the times of the rack
and wheel, and thumb-screw torture
were relics only of the vicousness and
savagery of the dark ages. But in this we
were mistaken, Supposedly enlighten-
ed and civilized Pennsylvanians,—men
wearing the uniform of her militia and
bearing with them her commission as
commanding officers, deliberately or-
der and approve the punishment of
one of their subordinates, that for real
brutishness; inhuman cruelty and un-
heard of barbariem, has no equal in
the records of this or any other civiliz-
ed country on the face of the globe.
Iams may have been guilty of an of:
fense, as unbecoming a citizen ‘as it
was disgraceful to a scldier, and one |
which in his case deserved prompt re-|
buke and punishment. But the infer- |
nal methods resorted to, by the should- |
er-strapped “brutes in command, to
show their pawer and authority in his |
case, was 4 thousand times more des- |
picable, cowardly, and deserving of
thumb-hanging punishment than the
crime for which he was made to suffer. |
It is acts like these, on the part of
military officers, more than the |
thoughtless and foolish. words of the
privates in the ranks, that are calculat- i
ed to bring lasting - disgrace upon the
National Guard of the State. J
Streator, HAWKINS and all connect- |
ed with thisouirageous affair,as well as
SNowbDEN, who approved their dofngn |
should leave the service with Iams,
They are & greater disgrace to the
Militia and the State than is he.

May Over-work Himself.
Mr. WaiTeLaw REip is working
himself awful hard to get up to that
pitch that he can pass a resolution in
sympathy with the locked-out union
workmen, at Carnegie’s and other tar-
iff protected mills. It has not been
long since Mr. REID believed in jorgan-
ized labor. In fact it is only about a
month, since he was its most open and
avowed enemy. But that was before he
was a candidate, and of course it will
take him longer to get up to the scratch
than if he had not spent an ordinary
life time opposing that which he now
professes to favor. Mr. Riep may not
be very honest in his lately discovered
sympathy for organized labor, but he'll
work very hard to make believe he is,
even if it lasts no longer than the closing
cf the polls. But he should’nt over-
work himself. = Let him pass;his reso-
lutions and quit.
Mistook Its Purpose.
If the PINKERTONS, in their statement
to the Congressional committee, had
given more insight into their methods
and more evidence of the necessity of
their business, with less of a tirade
against organized labor, it would have
bad fully as much effect in softening
public opinion towards them, as the
stump speech they made. They seemed
to forget that it was PINKERTON meth-
ods that Congress wanted to know about,
and undertook to show the wickedness
of labor organizations, and the “ornery-
ness’ of laboring men. When the
State Legislatures get through with
them next winter, they will open their
eyes to the mistake they made.

1s It Not Time to Call Them Home.
The State Guard has been at the ser-
vice of the CARNEGIE company now
about eighteen days, They were or-
dered out by the Governor, at the ur-
gent demand of the Sheriff of Allegheny
county, who, insisted that the peace o f
the Commoawealth was disturbed
that he was powerless to enforce order,
unable to execute the orders of the
courts, and helpless to protect proper-
Xy. ”
If such was the condition of affairs
at the time the Sheriff made the de:
mand, it has not existed since, nor does
it exist to-day. Homestead is as peace-
ful at this time and has beensince the
hour of the withdrawal of the PiNkgR-
TON army, as any town in the State.
The Sheriff of the county has, unmo-
lested,served warrants on those charged
with offences against the law, and the
courts of the county have held them
under bail for their appearance at trial.
The works that were proclaimed to
be in danger are in the possession of
their rightful owners, who inform the
public daily of the number of workmen
they have employed and who are peace-
fully filling the places of the locked out
laborers. The rights of persons and of
property are recognized by all and no-
where is there any evidence in the ac-
tion of any man or body of men, that
the laws could not be properly enforced,
and the rights of all protected, through
the courts of the county.
. With ‘this condition ot affairs at
Homestead, what reason or excuse is
there for the continuation of the milita-
ry, for an indefinite period of time, at
the great expense it 1s to the people of
thestate. Ithas already cost the tax-
payers $400.000, and but 400 men have
been secured to take the place of the
3,000 that Mr. Frick saw proper to
lock out and refused to treat with. Sure-
ly there ‘can be no intent of keeping the’
State Guard on duty antil this compa.’
ny scours Creation for men to take the
plage of their former employees, and
teaches a lot of green hands the mys.
tery of making steel plates and build-
ing beams !
This is not what the militia is main-
tained for. Its duties are to crush re-
beliions, prevent invasions, quell insur-
rections and suppress riots that'are be-
yond the control of the sheriff. There
is neither of these at Homestead, nor
are there threatd of either. Why
then the military at an expense of
$22,000 per day ?
There may be suspicion that peace
may not be assured without the pres-
ence of the State Guard, but mere sus-
picions are not sufficient grounds for
keeping the military in the field, at the
great cost it is to the tax-payers! Any
one can have suspicions. Should they
also be provided with the protection of
an army ?
Starting Right.
The California Democracy have
made an excellent beginning in the
present campaign by selecting as chair-
man of their State committee one of
the shrewdest, most aggressive and pop-
ular politicians they have, in the per
son of Mr. Max Porper, of San Fran-
cisco. With a thorough knowledge of
the political situation in every section
of the State, a large personal acquain-
tance with the party workers in every
county, a master of details and organ-
ization, and enjoying the confidence of
Democrats of all shades of opinion,
Mr. Popper will take hold of the work,
and unless all signs fail, he will not be
in charge long until California, in place
of being surely Republican, will be
classed as one of the doubtful states in
November. With a general in charge of
the Democratic forces, such as we are
confident he will prove, there are rough
times ahead for Harrison and the rail-
road monopoliste, who have so long
dominated the politics of the Pacific
coast,
——Mr. Harrison's personal cam-
paign, as conducted by himself, seems

of a lock-out campaign, in which every-
body who does not howl with the boss
for the bosses purposes and benefits, are
denounced ae enemies and kicked from
the premises of the owner. Possibly
the boss in this instance, may be as
anxious for ‘‘arbitration” before the
election, as some of his former support-
ers, seem to be at this time.
Collector Cooper’s Forgetfulness.
From the Pheenixville Messenger.
Thomas V. Cooper, Collector of the
Port of Philadelphia, late political boss
in Delaware county and editor of the
American, of Media, therein, in the cur-
rent issue of his journal has a long and
labored article on the situdtion at Home-
stead, which he'heads “The Bogy Man,”
beginning and ending it with words of
poesy. : i
Of course Mr. Cooper wades into the
workmen cf Homestead with upturned
sleeves, and hurls anathemas at them in
the biggest chunks of exaggerated Eng-
.| lish at his command.
It is quite natural he should. The
tendencies of his life have led him to’
turn his back upon his original state,
tasting the fruitage of spoils and bask-
ing in the blaze of power.
Collector Cooper is an evolution of
that system described as making poor
men poorer and rich men richer, and
per consequence battles for the more
favored class forgetful.
He forgot that while he was elabora-
ting upon the idea of a workingman in
Pennsylvania earning $7 a day when
occasion offers, that heis paid $22a day
for every one that goes to make up the
365 of a year, whether he is at his desk
in Philadelphia, gunning in the country,
fishing at the sea shore or on a month’s
jubilee trip to the Pacific coast. He
forgets further, that the workmen who
is puid $7 a day when he has work to
do earns it ; that he earns it mid heat,
and steam and noxious gases, and that
his limbs and health and life are in coa-
stant peril. He forgets bow vastly dif-
ferent are the active life conditions of
the man who earns his living by, the
sweat of his brow in the struggle of
mill lite, with his life conditions while
earning three times as ‘much i diem,
8 a pampered favorite of political ac-
tion.
He forgets too, that $7 a day paid
men in the iron ‘or steel business is an
exceptional wage ; that there are thous-
ands of workers in those metals in Penn-’
sylyania who are laboring hard 'for one-
third of the amount, and less, per day.

A Basket Full of Tariff,
From the Dubois Express. |
‘When the tariff on sugar was 88 per
cent. the consumer who invested a dollar
in sugar carried home in his basket
56 cents worth of sugar and 44 cents
worth of tariff. He now carries home
sugar instead of tariff, asd discovers
that investment gave him about ten
pounds more sugar in his basket. Now
did the importer pay the tariff on sugar
when you could only get ten or twelve
pounds for a dollar, or did the ‘consumer
pay it? =
The tariff on rice is ‘106 per cent.
Hence when you invest a dollar in rice
you carry home in your basket 47 cents
worth of rice and 53 cents worth of
tariff. = This rule applies throughout.
Can you afford it ?

Why the Democratic Party Grows Great.
From the Erie Herald.
Congressman Wilson, of West Vir-
ginia, said in his notification address
at Madison Square Garden: “The
duty of the Democratic party commits
it to a never-ending warfare with the
strongest and most enduring forces of
human nature—the lust of power and
the lust of greed.” This isa great
truth and cannot be too strongly im-
pressed on the minds of the people. It
explains the wonderful vitality of the
Democratic party. There has never
been a time 1n the history of our gov-
ernment that the people did not need—
and they need it now more than ever—
protection from the lust of powerand
the lust of greed.
Cameron Knows His Own. '
From the Scranton Truth.
The esteemed Bradford Rupublican
suggests that United States Senator
Cameron ‘‘assume his proper place as
a member of Democratic party.” This
will doubtless cause Senator Cameron
to smile, although it is no easy matter
to do so. Why should Cameron join
the Democratic party when he can get
a Republican Legislature to elect him
to the United States Senate every time
he wants to succeed himself.
A
Diflicult to See.
From the Cleveland Plaindealer.
It is difficult to conceive how the law
can hold the workmen guilty of murder
and the Pinkertons guiltless. The in-
vading mob is scattered and the identity
of ite members for the most part lost,
but the man who employed them, and
by that act became responsible for their
conduct, is well known.
When the People’s Party Gets In.
From the New York Herald.
Westerners continue to complain that
“tornadoes come without warning.”
When the People’s party get in we will
have cyclones and tornadoes preceded
by a band of music and a free luncheon.
Frick’s Blunder.
“rom the Louisville Courier-Journal.
