Ctiailcs-McUirtliy, of Xew York, iu tils
lecture on 'Ancient ami Modem Strike,"
remaiks: A strike' I a flglit In tlie dark.
Tlic old Egyptian stilholeel liy Mosei.wlifn
compared Willi ijiii.lcrii strikes, will prou'iit.
Intli a parallel an. I a contrast. Tho chil
dren of Israel, sl.ivos under tlio Irailerslilp
of Mows, organized the greatest Industrial
ktrikii of wlilcli wo liavo any account In
ancient IiUlory. Notwithstanding llio fact,
supposing the account to tie true, that this
great ancient strike was supported by ex
traordinary and sitpeiliunian powers, It
cannot be vuii.tilrii'il In nny pracllr.il sense
n ntrcris. It dl 1 not Improve the cliarac
or belter tho condition of the. .".laves
who successfully escaped from the brick
Melds of Egypt. These unforlunatestrlkers
were led by their Implied leaders Into a
forty years' pilgrimage through a wilder
n3 where they suffete.l hardships not less
Intenso than the tllnl of bi Ink-making.
In comparing this old strike with the
present strikes of American Industrial
slaves against taskmasters just aa grinding
as the Kgptlan3 were, wo are thankful for
the hopeful contrast, conspicuous in the
absence of malice. There Is none of the
luiiaculous and superhuman destructive
ncss which characterized tho history of ttie
old Hebrew stilke forliberty In the land of
C.oslion. Then, as now, It was a fight in
tho dark. Then, as now, it was war not
a natural fiht bat wren the laborer and the
iii.il'nllst. but or.e between tlio laborer and
the land oh nee, who was the master. Now
the strike Is between organized capital and
orgauUe.1 labor. This Is merely a tight In
the dark, but It U war, and war carrying In
Its train mutual destruction, like that Irish
traditional dual:
There was once two eats In Kilkenny,
Kncli thought thcie was one loo many,
Ko they quarreled and fit,
And they gouged and tin y bit,
Till, excepting their halls
And thellpsof theli talU.
Instead ol two eats there ."an't any.
Strikes should seldom be entered upon
except as a last resort, and never with tho
expectation of gaining permanent redress.
A scab could not bo blamed tor taking a
position which had been thrown up by a
'triker. They arc only laborers piessed by
hunger to do f o. '1 hey are our fellow crea
tures and nc should feci for them. Vio
lence will gain us nothing. Political action
Is our only hope.
SoJtt: days ago a local assembly of the
Knights of Labor ordered a boycott to be
enforced against the Cilteiion Theatie, of
Urooklyn, because a number of "scabs"
weie being employed U3 members of the or
chestra. The management of tho theatre,
instead of discharging the "seab." caused
It to become know n that a boycott had been
declared asalust it iiil imbilslied the lea
ton w by. The consequence lias been that
tho pationage of the theatre has increased
to quite an extent as in the eases of those
other boycotted !lnn. of iliveis kinds and
times, and the mauagerj of th.e theatre are
mh to hope thai the boycott may continue.
There Is a limit to wliMi Ilia masses of the
people will not go hi foilov.lng any leader
or leaders, and a conspiracy to luln the
legitimate businesses of honest enterprise
Is on the far side of tha line of limit.
Sam Jonim remarks that "lufi.lellty Is
only a great nig mouth that goes around
talking, ami a goo,!, sound crack in the
mouth would close it up." Depends on
the sUe of the mouth and who does the
striking.
A CutcAoo Justice Anthony byname

lowing terse sentence: "Let 'ergo, Gall

Fifty tliimmiiil iiicii on tlie stilko and
mom going out every day! What docs It
mean? They aro offering tho men along
shoie, and Indeed a majority of those out,
thirty cent', on hour for day work andslxty
cents an hour for night wot k, and Itimpiliwi
but n very limited knowledge of arithmetic
to figure up the loss to the strikers at one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars a day
Tills Is not very far from a million dollais
a week, and they have now been on the
strike nearly four weeks. Such a dreadful
drain as this would have tried the combined
capital of this nation, and would soon force
tho mightiest representative of capital In
the wotlJ Into bankruptcy. How, heavy Is
tho evil on those who have no capital but
their daily earnings, and with whom tin
week's wages arc riortgaged before they
aro received! It would be bad enough If
this suffering was precipitated on the pool
In summer, but In the freezing winter the
calamity Is doubled.
And now let us ask ourselves why thou
sands of poor people arc suffering for want
of food and perishing for want of coal?
why Is tho commerce of New York and
Ilrooklyn paralyzed? Why are men assembl
ed In tho streets? Why Is properly destroyed
and lives threatened? A couple of hundred
coal handlers in a small town away from
Now York demand twenty-two cents nn
hour Instead of twenty. Tho company In
sist that the demand was never made bc-
toro tlio men ipdt woik. The demaiid
would lmo added twenty ccnts.a day to
each man's wages. Now It is a pretty safi
calculation tliat each one of these two
hundred men who struck drink live, classes
of lager beer each day, for around all of
these coal dumps the saloon has a heavy
mortgage on the laborer's wages at the end
of the week, and that morigago is always
settled befoio tho claims of tho butcher,
the grocer or the landlord aio considered;
so that if these men had sacrificed their
beer they would havo been just as rich as
they were before, and wo would have had
no strike; but you say the rich mine-owners
might have advanced the men the extra 20
cents a day, and then there would hayc
been no strike. So they might but thev
did not, and between them both we. are
made to suffer. Tliero Is no denying the
fact that tlio trotiblo was precipitated In
the first place by the coal barons. I!y a
very limited combination of a few com
panies and their roads, they contiol the
coal consumption of tlio entire United
States. This amounts annually to hundred
of millions of tons. They met last Fall and
icsolved to advance tho price of coal
twenty-live cents per ton. They were
already receiving liomcnso profits on their
Investments, and by that single lesolutlon
they added over a bundled millions of dol
lars to their already enormous piolits, an'
added it to the coal consumed alike by the
rich and poor. When tlio working men
heard of the advance they proposed to share
ltd benefits and hence their demand of two
cents a ton on which tlio capitalists had
advanced fifty. Now come the complica
t'oni! On this strike eight men out of ten
have no complaints to make. They have
all tlie wages they ask; the hours of labor
are entirely satisfactory; they confess that
their employers hare used them well, but
they have determined to paialyze all kind
of trade till these two bundled coal hand
lers get their two cents an hour.
Last week the Government laborers who
were receiving thhty cents an hour struck
for forty cents. The Secretary of the
Treasury Immediately ordered the advance,
and although the men had no grievance to
complain of they refused to go to work.
Several of the strikes havo been to compel
the employers to take back men whom
they have discharged. Tha men Insist on
tho employers takingthelr fellow workmen
back whether they want thrm or no that
is to say, tliey will glvo the workman per
fect freedom to say who his employer shall
lie; but they deny to tho einplojerthe right
which they claim for themselves, thereby
making him virtually a slave. It would
seem on the commonest principle, of jus
tice that, if tlio man is free to work for
whom ho will, and to come, and go when
hu pleases, subject to no control whatever,
that tho same rights which he claims for
himself should be accorded tothe employer.
Let tho motto be emblazoned on the ban
ners of tho worklngincn:
I'ymil and Exact Juttli c to All, Employer
and Employed.
It i3 pretty evident that matters cannot
go on very long as tliey are at present, ami
whatever way tho battle Is decided It will
be somo time before either side will be will
ing to enter a struggle llko that which now
entails such dreadful suffering on thous
and) anil thousands who had Holland In
precipitating the strike.
A very eminent literary gentleman, in
wilting on the labor troubles, suggests as a
panacea, education, and I think Long
Island would not be a bad place to begin
the experiment. Thoso who aro deeply
versed in geography are doubtless aware
that Long Island Is a neck of land which
stretchC3 out In an easterly direction about
ono hundred and thirty miles from the
goodly city ot Ilrooklyn. It was originally
settled bv the Dutch, and their dcsconJcnts
aro to bo found to this day settled on the
same farms w here their ancestor.) squatted
in the time of Vi outer Yon liroom. A su
burb of Ilrooklyn is tlio delightful vl'latro
of IVarsalls, and one of 3 principal mag
nates Is '1. J. Mott w ho Is one of the
present school trustees. A gentleman by
tho name of Selvage thought IVarsalls
would be a delightful place to live In. and,
acting on the thought, adaudoned his home
in Ilrooklyn and moved into tlie country.
It did not take him long to discover that
the educational advantages of his new home
nere not equal to those lie had left behind.
The school was not warmed, and he was
not satisfied with the teachers, and dually
his grievances found vent in a letter to the
school trustee. Tlie trustee aforesaid was
.1 inort estimable and worthy citizen of
some substance, and by profession a butch
er, but who had not enjoyed in Ids youth
tlio advantages of either Harvard or Yale.
Ills advantages had been on a par with the
tru-rfee of a neighboring town, who reply
ing to an applicant who wanted to teach
the village school, at a salary of ten dollars
and fifty cents a month, said, that "Sijuau
tum Center wanted fust rate ability an'
must hey It, and that she wuz perfee'ly
wllltn' to pa fm It, and pa a gud.prise too;
that pursanally he did not go much on
gruiniuer, but ritliiuetlck ami gcograffy
must bo fust chop." When the trustee at
I'eaisalU got Mr. Selvage's letter his blood
fairly boiled. Ho had lived In IVarsalls
for fifty years and had beon a School Trustee
for twenty, lie had hired all the teachers,
bought the cordwood with which the school
was warmed, ho had had the roof shingled
twice, and got a now dek for a favorlto
teacher, and his authority bad never been
questioned. And now to havo a city feller
come to IVarsalls and tell him how to run
the ( hide, no wonder Ids blood was hot.
Hi! f.il down, seized Ids pen and hurled
this 250 pound dymmlte shell at the unfor
tunate Sclwigc. and it U lucky It did not
strike him square or thai oily gent would
have been beard of no mote at Pent-sails.
Here Is the letter:
I'liAltSAl.t.s Jany ill 1887 Mr and tnfs

In view of tlio above It Is gratifying to
know that If lu the civil convu'slons which
now shake this land, education should

Brother Mott will rescue a simtk of the
Promethean lire from the destruction and
ruin which surrounds nun, nun in a trappier
time when peace shall have been restored,

regions of IVarsalls.
Father McGljnn's letter cf explanation
iu Henry George's paper has not served to
quiet matters Iu the least. Archbishop
Corrlgan look (light for tho "vexed lior-
moothes" ostensibly to bless a now church,
but really to get out of tho row which has
given bis eminence moro trouble than any
thlilg'tliat ever becurfd to hlmbcfore. Up
to the present tlmo the t arc,lihjshop h.i3
4saiieu in smootu waters anil witli favoring
gales, and his whole life may bo said to be
ono continued success. He was what. the
world calls a lucky man. Ho was hardly
ordained when ho was given one of the
richest parishes Iu the diocese. He was
made .1 bishop over the heads of dozen? of
eminent clergymen who had devoted tlie
best years' of their lives to the advance
ment of tho Catholic Church and made It
what It Is to-day, the most powerful church
organisation in tlie Union. On the death
of Cardinal JlcCloske,' ho was made an
archbishop, and no doubt looks forward
hopefully to a cardinal's hat. The con
tuniacy of Father McGlynn Is the Ihst real
trial of his life, and to be openly accused
by that clergyman of not having told the
truth, was more than his patience could
bear. He knew .13 long as ho remained in
New lork that he could not avoid the
controversy, so ho sailed last' week .for
IJermuila In hopes that while ho was away
Father McGlynn would clthci conclude to
obey the orders of the Fatlcan or clso be
publicly excommunicated by the .Propa
ganda, and thus have the question finally
settled.
'the labor troubles have affected us In
every department of trade. The strikers
had no money to carry home on Saturday
night, and many home3 were destitute of
lire and food. One of tlio most pitiable
eases was In the Catholic Orphan Asjlum
of Ilrooklyn. There arc GOO little children
cared for by the good Sisters of Charity
llieircoal gave out on Saturday and the
strikers refused to aid them in petting a
supply to warm them and cook their food
over Sunday. This barbarity and worthy
ot 1 no severest condemnation. Several of
the ricii coal dealers, when their men do
rcrted them, stripped of: thcircoats, loaded
up their coal carts, and drove them from
place to place delivering coal to fill orders
1110 price of coal lias doubled iu tluce
weeks. Itetail dealcis arc now askin
cigiit and ten dollars a ton. Stransa as it
may seem the theatres are filled night after
night and I rejoice to record that.

It Is wonderful to nolo with what alacri
ty the members of tho Legislature can dis
pose of Imslners on hand when necessity
demands it Iu order to secure an adjourn
incut for a few days. The majority of our
Assemblymen left hero Friday inornln
for their homes in order to be In attendance
at tho spring election and enjoy their Ir
alienable rights as citizens of a free com
monwealth. Tims far everything has been
moving along smoothly in both Houses, al
though occasionally there arc slight out
bursts 'mongst the various members, which
do not count for much, fortunately
Prohibition, a question of more than
paramount Interest, still holds Jhe atten
tion of assemblymen. During tlio discus
sion of the prohibition amendment last
week, Calllgan, of Westmoreland, support-
en Jiackln, of tlie Sixth district, who of
fered the compensatory amendment, witli a
speech, tho llko of which was never heard
before In any forum, and which tended to
keep tho members of tho House In what
might bo called a negro minstrel mood.
Calllgan's oratory was of tlie kind Milton
Ian that look Its way "o'er bog and steep,
thiongli strait, rough, dense or rare, and
Willi Its bead, hands, wings or feet pursued
It way, and su ims or sinks or creeps or
lies." Pioliibltlon was a failure In the
Garden of Eden." said the prayer-killer of
Westmoreland, "and I tell you, gentlemen,
It will fall In IVniisjIvanla. Lou; after I
am gone and you members arc rottenlng iu
your graves, it w ill bo recalled that 1 had
the courage to stem the tide of fanaticism."
Hut the tide was not stemmed, from the
fact that the prohibition current flowing
from Republican rivulets, was too strong
for bith Calllgan and Hums, tho latter ',tiiu
opposed the resolution from a constitution
al standpoint. Tho Republican party has
acted honestly, faltlynnd consistently wllh
the people In the matter of prohibition.
They have exhibited unusual good faith iu.
redeeming tho party pledge of tlie late cam-'
paign. Leeds voted against the submission
amendment, as did several other promi
nent members which cleat ly shows that It
h not a party measure, has not, in faet;the
co-operation and vmpathy of tho whole
Republican forces. The faithful observ
ance of the party pledge will be used by
Republicans In future political campaigns
when they desire to impress upon tho
minds of tho people that "they are the par-
ty for the iKople." Fortunately, however, j
enough Democrats joined with them, which !
goes to show that tlie di ink question super
sede3 party restraints.
