L THE FOUR STRIKES, The four strikes—the Idaho, Tennes- », Homestead and Buffalo—are prac- ically ended, and the military have been withdrawn, with perhaps a few guards to remain a short time longer. The violence and bloodshed caused by these strikes are unjustifiable and there is no legal quibble which could standing in court. The expense of these strikes to the parties concerned in them, to the parties against whom they were directed, and to the citizens of the four states in which they took place, along with the lives, it is to be hoped is an experience that will be a lessen to capital as as labor, for wrongs and committed on both sides to content that leads to riot shed.

They cannot assail Cleveland's term, because he had a clean tration. They cannot talk up their infamous force bill, because the country put its greatest condemnation upon that in- iqu ity at the polls, two years ago. They cannot gull the laborer, for the hundreds of strikes for higher wages proves that those promises in the past, that wages shall be raised, were false.

What he demands is both a foreign and a home market for the products of his farm. It is mockery to tell him he is protected against the corn and wheat products of the Old World. While he is compelled to sell in the open markets of the world, he should be allowed the poor privilege of buying what his necessities require, without paying high tribute to the protected classes of his own country.

So- called American tin is, therefore, as a rule simply foreign block plates im- ported; foreign tin imported; foreign workmen; foreign tin-dipping pots im- ported, and all the American industry about it is the dippingshed, and for that luxury, the people are taxed some $16,000,000 a year on their dinner pails, kitchen ware, roofs, fruit cans, ete, It is not an American industry at all; iS is a palpable, flagrant fraud and simply oppressive taxation on all without com- pensation to any. ———————— We do not know that anything can be said against the private characters of the men placed in nomination by the Republicans for county offices, Being Republicans they lack one good quality, belonging to the nominees on the Democratic side, which will act in favor of our ticket and secure for it the united Democratic support.
