A CALL HAS JIKEK ISSUED FOIl A STATE
Constitutional Amendment Convention to
convene at Harrlsburg on Tuesday, 10th
Inst. Delegates from churches, Sunda
schools, labor organizations and temperance
societies throughout the State are requested
to be present. The purpose of the conven
tion Is to perfect State organization am.
prepare for a gleantic battle against the so
called saloon power on tho 18th of June.
The ciiippeh Lansfohi) i?ccor2 come
to hand this week several days late but s
Improved and beautified In appearand
that It fully compensated for the delay
The .Record Is now the same size as the
Carbon Advocate and Is printed on a
new Campbell cylinder press. We con
gratulate Br'er Jimmy on his success and
trust prosperity may continue to shine up
on him with resplendent bounllfulncss.
The 10th ihstant will de an impoh
tant event In tho history of Summit Hill
They will elect a full set of borough official
on that dav. If tho, the citizens, aci
wisely In their choice It will be fortunate
for tha new borough, but should partisan
bigotry hold away, they can expect to Mini
along like many other towns of shackled
possibilities. Elect good, live, intelligent
men, no matter what their politics raa be.
Whew wonKiSGMEN become more kh
lightened, till they are controlled altogether
by principles, the leaders who prove un
faithful to the great ideas of labors' Inter-.
asts and rights will not be tho stumbling
blocks they are today. Tha people will
look beyond them to principle and while
that remains infact the shortcomings of
delinquent leaders will have little or no In
fluenca on tho movements In operation for
labor's good. Record, Mahanoy City.
If bomb of those brash European
powers don't stop their arrogant Insults to
America, Uncle Sam will wake up some
fine morning, throw off that old brass-but'
toned, bine jean swallow-tailed cojt, take
a hitch at his suspenders and say: "By
jingo! there Isn't room for us both on this
here planet." Biff I And then there will
be another first-class national funeral In
EuroDe, and the American Eagle will flap
Itbwings and rejoice.
Those people who incline to think
that the Advocate acts Injudiciously In
allowing persons to discuss 'ho prohibition
amendment question In Its columns, are
either too ignorant too fully undersand the
benefits of a free and unmortgaged press, m
are too bigoted to party and principle lo
appreciate a free and fair discussion of an
all-Important Issue. However, regardless
of what this class of people may think the
Advocate will continue to keep It'
columns open for the discussion of all
matters of public Importance.
A Washington correspondent says
"It Is only natural that President Uleve
land should return promptly to the practice
of the profession In which he was actively
and succtssfully engaged before emetine
public life. His career in politics has,there
fore, been so short that office seeking and
office holding haye not become habits of
lifs to htm. lie is a man of active mind,
with great capacltt for work, and he has
Indulged himself It this faculty since enter
lng public life In 1882. He will, therefore,
take quite naturally again to the routine ol
a lawyer'i office, In which he wil
deal with the largest and most linpotlau
Issues to be found outside the field of politics.
BROADBRIM'S 1 1 LETTER.
No doubt as you read the papers and dls
patches from New York ysu pitied us when
you considered the desperate condition in
which w were placed. Of course, you
thought all business was suspended and
that everybody barricaded their doors and
windows against the murderous riders. 1
confess It did look a good deal like It when 1
read the newspapers
Now, don't understand me to say that we
haye bad no serious disturbance during the
past week, for we have and very serious
disturbance. For several hours In New
York travel was suspended on a Dumber of
car routes, and In Brooklyn on the. lines
carried on by Deacon Itlcbardson not a car
moyed for six days. Ono man was mur
dered by the strikers; be was In the Dea
con's employ; and, by the way, the reason
thsy call him Deacon Is because be never
was a deacon, and from present revelations
is not likely to be one.
The Deacon is very well known in Brook
lyn, and is one af those pig-headed men
who is Very fond of having his own way
and very averse to letting any other person
haye his way. The Deacon's men. lo the
number of several hundred, chose a com
mltte of the Knights of Labor to arrange
their contracts this year. This the Deacon
utterly refused to do. He said he would
treat with bis own bands individual!), but
with no outsiders under any circumstances.
This brought matters to a climax, and his
whole system of five city routes were placed
under the ban. The men, a howling mob.
surrounded the stables and threatened the
lives of those who even attempted to feed
the horses. For six days the rioters held a
portion of the town, arrested men In the
streets, beat and maltreated them, till at
last the example of the New York police
was so Infectious that the Brooklyn finest
aalled in, and after some livel clubbing the
rioters were beaten and the strike squashed.
In New York the rioters massed their
forces at various points and made a desper
ate resistance. The east and west side of
the city contain In certain pans as lle a
population as can be found in any city of
tue world, and several ol the rrosstnwn
routes pass through localities where a man's
life after dark would hardly be safe if be
were known to have five dollars in bis pock
et. One of the favorlt modes of resistance
WM to bloclado the tracks with trucks,
R1hes. Mones, or wbstBter was bandlest.
The 1 1 o igi st part of this Is that tha offense
01 oimructliiK a rauroaa car, or 01 laying
anything on the rails Is a fclony.aml though
thi crimp has lieon commlitcd repeatedly

neace and security is restored to our cltv
fills is a desperate alternative, but it Is all
liat is !eft us if we would have an thing I
reuiaiu that looks like order or law. The
strikers appear to think that nobodv ha

any ponr fellow out oi a joo uares 10 appiv
for the situations which they have abau
doned they beat him to death. That this
. . .,,,. . ,.,,, , . trM
country Is Incredib e, and the liu e power
of the Stale and nation should be Invoked
to protect the humblest laboring man In
the right to freely walk the si reels without
the slightest diead or hindrance from labor
picket guards and to defend Ills rlirtiL to
dispose of his labor wherever he can find a
market tor it.
The auesiion is no longer one of labor
and capital; that Is coinnlclelv driven out
if sight in the rar more important mailer
)f the power of lauor oyer lalioi : w nether
neclaes of laboring men shall have the
itlit to i ill and malm any other class of
aburing men who un not agree nlth them.
and who do not desire to belong to tin I
assiuciatluiis; whether they shall be allowed
to Picket our streets to prevent anv man
iroiu earning nis mean except uy ineir per-
.nlisidii; in short, whether the people of
hu ll nlted states are to De governed o me
Knights of Labor or similar associations. or
whether we are to live under a government
of the people and for the people and by the
people. There is not the slightest opjec
lion to the Knights of Labor who desire It
and are willing to submit io them, being
goverued.by their own laws when the do
not come to conuict Willi the laws ot th"
the land. According to the last reports
their organization an only show a mem
bership of L'iO.OOO men. In the United
States at the present time there are over
Ixtv-tlve millions of people, or a ratio ot
one to 250. Now. .he 250 utterly repudiate
the rule of that one: he hall have bis nisi
niihts as they haye no more, no less; and
.it any cost or any sacrifice tne right of
man to dispose or his own lauor wnerever
he sees fit and for whatever price he may
choose to fix upon it without Interference
from an other man sbould be maintained
If it took the last man in our police and
militia and the last dollar In the State
and National treasury to do It. The ruffian
ism and brutality of the mobs last week
have awakened New York and Brooklyn to
the fact that, magnificently as the police
have done their allotted work, we have not
police enough. New York needs five hun-
dred more and Brooklyn an equal number.
With this body ot well drilled, rallbful etll
cers, both cities can rely on absolute peace
and security. The cost will be considera
ble, but tho safety of Ufa and property will
be worth it all.
It Is a little singular that in the midst of
this social revolution business has gone on
right ahead and al. tho theatres have been
lolnc a rushing business. While tho thea
tres have been doing well It Is gratifying to
record that Shakespeare has been the prin
cipal feature of the week. Antony and
uleopatra at Palmer 's with Mrs. rotter and
K rle U.'llew In the leading parts, and Mac
beth at the Fifth Avenno, with Mrs. Lang
try and Charles Coughlan as Lady Macbeth
and Macbeth. Ills not my purpose to ci it
iclse either of these performances; there is
a square, honest endeavor to do the best
thev posslblv know how. One's Ideas of
L idt Macbeth haye been bullded lip on cer
tain lines and we cannot help it. The gen
eratlon that rem tubers Charlotte Cushniaii
as .he wife of the Thane of Cawdor will be
scarcely able lo accept the handsome
llsli woman whose very ueaut is almost
fatal to the part. Grand In scenery, lavish
in proper lies, startling In effects, gorgeous
in costume. It still fails to rise to the height
of artistic and Intellect ual excellence which
marked some of the performances given 40
jears ago. who can ever iorget, who saw
It. the wonderful performance given bv
Macreaciy and Charlotte (Juihmanr James
allack, Jr.. and his wife gave a magnlfi
cent rendering of these parts and many
others that I could name. Those who re
member them will not be satisfied 1)) the
performance of Charles Coimlil.ui as Mac
belli, io those who nave not seen .Mai-
ueth before, the play will be a gratifying
xnrprise and a great relief from those artiti
cial abominations, tne so called society
I'lavs.

that careful, conscientious staging could do

Mr. Palmer himself was at Make fully as
much as that ol Mrs. Potter and kjile Del

erlal on hand will allow II is linpislhlc
o make a good act ess out of Mrs. l'ot.ei

ference between her and a great actoi. that
'here Is between a fiist-class ocean steamer
and a little- pleasuie jachi. The jne looks
t'rellv. sails well In smooth water, but slid
n not built for heavy weather. The dlf
lerence between reciting "Ostler Joe'' In a
ladles' parlor and act lng Shakespeare's Cle
opatia Is considerable. Notwithstanding
these drawbacks 1 am happy to record thai
the pla Is a financial success.
The Eauies divorce case, of which I spoke
a few weeks ago, where the co-respondent
was tue lady s jwii young; Pro tier, has nn
ally brought all the parties to the accursed
conspiracy to grief and promises to Isnd
every one of them In btates Prison. A
fouler and more d,mnab!n piece of villainy
io blast ihe reputalion of an innocent girl
and to ruin the reputallou of a worthy
young man for life, lias seldom beeu beard
of In out criminal courts. The man wanted
to gel rid of his wife, and two servants
were suborned to swear that she was seen
in a compromising position with a volute
gentleman who visited the family. The
application was made secretly, and on the
testimony ol these perjured witnesses the
decree was granted, the man all the time
living with his wife, and the first she knew
of It was while silting at breakfast with
htm one Sunday morning she took up the
paper and lead the decree that bad been
granted the day before. At first she f lied
to understand It, but ner husband qulell
looked across the table and assuied her
that It was all correct When the attention
of the Judge was called lo the fact that It
was her younger brother, whom she had
nursed from a baby, lie was shocked. The
case was promptly opened and the lad.' was
instanll acquitted, the jury not leaving

have been arrested for conspiracy and per
jury, and it Is hoped that the whole of the
Infamous gang will soon be landed In States
Prison.
It Is witli grief that I record that trouble
is brewing In the "Sorosis." A part has
been formed antagonistic In sweet Jennt
June (Mrs. Croh), and while there hat
been no hair pulling for they are all nice
Udles there has been a uios' pronounced
rebellion, which may etentually lead lo the
disruption of the best woman's club in the
United States If not In Hie woild. Ii is but
justice to Mis. Cro) to say that she per-
sonallv would make an sacilfiee rather
than have discontent ot hard feelings euter
a circle which for many yeais has been the
centre of the most blissful liarmon , It Is
II e earnest desire of all who wish well for
women that Ihe Soiosis uiav continue to
be in the future, as It has been In the past,
the home of liaiiuony. That it Is what it
is to day lias been through the untiring
labors of Mrs. Crol and a few oilier esti
mable women who are a blessing and an
honor to their sex. Settle your difficulties,
ladies, behind cloed doors; keep out thft
wicked reporters; and In New York lot ua
Iiaya only one Sorcsls.
