Tho striko was substantially succoss
fnl. It aimed at an increaso of wages,
and an increase was obtained. But
tho advantages wero much greater
than this. A plain statement of tho
facts rovoalcd to the public a system
by which not only tho dock laborers
woro oppressed, but tue public w.is
fleeced. Tho commerco of London
discovered that the striker s causo was
its own. Tho strike began among
tho lowest class ot workmo i, but grad
ually spread through ovory olass, and
at last involvol ovcrv branch of tho
commercial interest. Thus it showed
tho intimate rclalioa between all of
them, from tho imparter to tho "casual
laborer." iiesidcs this, it had the gen
oral effect of demonstrating to the pub
no mind in tho nmst improisivo uian-
ner that a striko may have tho bost
reason. It dissipated tho notion that
a striko is necessarily a wanton and
foolish outbreak ot an attempted un
reasonable compulsion. Unco more
the complete and effeo ivo orgauiza
tion of a powerful pait of tho physical
torco ot tho mctropoliL to secure cer

rarv paralysis of labor is a peaceful
but impressivo revolution which will be
remembered with advantage.
Another oi the excellent conse
quences of this strike is the proof
which it has afforded to the striking
eloment in society that overv move
ment of tho kind is not prejudged as
causeless, but is estimated upon its
merits. This truth has been demon
Btrated also in some of the more notable
sliikes in Now York, whero publio
sympathy has not been withheld from
Itopublics rothzed that Id promote
their common mleret and to secure
their indivi'luil success thoro must ba

purpose in mind, nn international con
ferenco at Panama iu 1821, to which
every independent Amorican Republic
was nsked to send delegates. Nothing
came of this call, not because the in

DEMOLISHED.
Bl8st.P-U-
The old engine house used by tlio
great anti-slavery leader and his fol
lowers as a placo of rcfugo from tho
soldiers and citizens surrounding
them is to be demolished, and will dis
appear forever, unless tho as yet un
substantial rumor that it has been pur
chased by an association of Eastern
gentlemen for removal to Philadelphia
should bo true.
Tho Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company has dtoided upon a very im
portant change in its main li-.e .at
that place, the new survey running di
rectly through tho old engine house.
Tens of thousands have gazed with
interest upon the'Tort" from car win
dows and platforms since the war, and
tho demolition of the old building will
be regretted by many all over tho
fou n try.
WHAT IEEIOATI0N WILL DO.
CItKAT RESULTS ANTICIPATED IN THE
NEXT DECADE TllUOL'Gll THE WEST
ERN bTATES.
It is my opinion that irrication ft ill
he the means of doubling the popula
tion of every state nnd territory with
in the coming ten years. I further
believe thnt in tho Kast, where tho
rainfall isaheavy. but unco tain, irriga-
ion will ultimately be rt sorted to in
idi-r to insure greater rigularily of
Tops. Four tenths of theaua of the
Uti ted Sialef, not including Ahuka,
require iriigaiion. This teintory in
clu.lei parts of California, Tix.it, Kan
sas Nebraska, Nevada, Oregon, all of
AiiZ' iia, IN ew Mexico, Utah, Wyom
ing Montana aud portions of Dakota
mil asinngton.
1 hrouli tins vast territory there
How a numb.-r of streams with narrow
valleys capable of cultivation. In
these valleys settlers have taken up
their abode, "cities hive been built
nd ii'.w the cry is for more room.
The room is Iheie, and tho only thing
iiei-dcl to mako the broad sunburned
plains vio with valleys is iiiiaation.
The sentiment in favor of this method
of rtclnimiiig lands is growing strong,
.inn i predict that ten years will wit
ness revolution. Gen. John 11.
Jioicman in the Kansas City Times.
