What has been gained? Somo day tho

There Is disposition to believe that
Randall will oppose and obstruct the
passage of any tailff reform measure not
bearing tbo Randall stamps. We are dis
posed to doubt this.. Tho party are pledged
to tariff reform. There Is now ono honest
effort to reduco taxation without Injuring
the business iatercsts. The "free trade"
buggaboo, cau liay' no. place In an honest
discussion. It will be well for the hide
bound protectionist to halt aud consider,
there is adlspusltlon on tka part of tariff
reformers to boconseryative,but if badgered
abused and defeated now, there will come
a time when an outraged tax ridden people
will rebell and wlpo out the present, entire
protection Idea. It will bo the part of
wisdom to discuss and pass a tariff reform
measure, patriotically.
Mr. Powderly brands the man who
takes ono of tho vacated positions on the
0. B. & Q. R. R as a "scab" stay away
he says to tho man out of employment,
better remain a pauper, than be a "scab."
This kind of adylce from tho heretofore
conservative Grand ..Vaster Workman
seems a little strange (Fill his adylco If
followed give the Idle engineer or fireman
a situation, will It better his chances for
tho future.wtll It furnish bread, will It satisfy
the claims of the family, will It make him
a better citizen, we believe such advlco de
moralizing to tho labor army. Strikes
have not, do not, and will not benefit
labor, every Intelligent right minded wage
worker admits this and individually oppose
strikes, what recompense Is there for tho
enforced Idlers the result of a strike? Ad
mitting that the claim of tho Engineers
and Firemen on this Western road is just,
what moral right have they to threaten
enforced idleness, loss of wages, and possi
bly loss of position on thousands of others.
The power of one man to call out of
service enough employees to stop the
wheels of trado ard paralyze tho business
of the country Is too arbitrary, too injuri
ous to bo tolerated long. There will be a
reaction rendered necessary for the peace
and protection of tho people. The indivi
dual who advocates boycotts and strikes4s
tho real "scab" get rid of this element
and much of labor's unrest, will be quieted.
