And there are cases where the em
ployer cannot exercise his right te dls-
-charge bis empleyes ; and ethers where
be ought net te, if lie can. Of the
.former kind, is the case of the railroad
company that is in controversy with its
engineers as te the wages it shall pay
them, when all the engineers In the ceun-
p try stand together and the railroad com cem
pany cannot obtain competent men te
man its engines te take the place of its
empieyea, if it lets them go. In this situ situ
atien, seemingly, the railroad should eag
fly eeek the chance of an arbitration te
which the ether side would covenant te
submit; since the company's duty te the
pnblicand under the law as common car
rier, will net permit it te discontinue its
train service, which would net risk the
less of its charter. And ac.ise where
the eropleyir should net dismiss
his empleyes, even though the law
Will peimlt hiue te let his works stand
idle, may be found when he Is a producer
of aneces3ary of life, such as coal, which
lie cannot cease te mine without great
public hurt. In such cases arbitral Ien is
called for ; and It may well be that the
law should compel it,as a means of avoid
ing public distress.
"We de net think that the law should
proffer arbitration which it docs net pro pre
Tide the means te enforce. "Ye have a
' statute in Pennsylvania, offering ntbltra-
,tkra, which is futile, because it does net
compel it ; when a wrong is such as te
call for a Btatute, penalties must make it
effective. -
"We have had growing, for many jears,
aggregations of capital, under the pre-
i&.. tectien of charters, which have new
become se vast rs te threaten the public
welfare, In the Judgment of all men. We
have bad, of late years,the combination of
labor In great masses, formed for its pro
tection against the ma33cs of capital ;
which threatens the publie peace, in the
opinion of many geed men. The cotnel.
nation of money and that of lalwr are
both lawful, and both ineful ; and while
there is danger in both, sufficient protec
tion from both may be had in the law.
"We believe that, atleastunderthopres atleastunderthepres
ent inadequate control of corporations
by the law, the organization of
labor is necessary for its protec
tion and for the public geed. We
believe, furthermore, that it serves a geed
purpose in equalizing the cost and steady
ing the price of manufactures. But it
must be wisely governed te be beneficent;
and the trouble is in the danger that it may
net be wisely governed, because of the
prevalent lack of intelligence in some
laboring classes. But it is doubtful
whether lack of intelligence will te mere
te drive men te injure their fellows than
the greater wit and greater greed that
has borne the Standard monstrosity.
We ask from the law, for the public,
protection against the massing of menty
'and the massing of men ; but against the
first, first. And we think that compulsory
, arbitration is needed te prevent the tielng
up of railroads and of mines. The pub-

Hay or Hewitt an Honest Scold.
Mayer Ilewltt, of Xew Yerk, does net

ttoea with which our country is blessed,
Mr. Powderly has lately let fly at him,
ad be says Mr. Powderly does net tell

JPewderly certainly misrepresented Mayer
Htwltt when be said be was in favor of

,;; t organized capital. He is generally a
, vary level-headed man, and undeniably
.hOBtjst in everything be says and does.
tfmK sew lie is demonstrating JS is honesty
and independence somewhat at the cost
of prudence. He has called down upon
himself the anathemas of the Hiber
nians because he would net let the green
Has of J-rin lly from the city ball en St.
Patrick's Day. He was right in that re
solve, because he was right In saying that
no flag should fly from the city hall but
the national and state flags; but he
might have been less abrupt in telling the
Hibernians about it. And se he might
luve given the Grand Army committee
BJme sugary words, while telling them
that he could net sanction the preposition
te keep old soldiers in the city offices for
life. It was n wise determination, and
the Clrand Ajmycemmlttce' request was
very silly ; but people de net like te be
told that they are silly, even when they
knew it.
Mayer Hewitt is evidently very care
less of conciliating any people who cannot
be wen by geed deeds. He has no soft
words for them ; and, we confess, we like
hlm'ferit. It is his own concern if he
does net care te smooth people down,
when they ceme te him with foolish de
mands, which heis right te refuse; and
the mero decidedly he does it, the better
ought it te suit the public.
We nre especially pleased with the cm
basis he has used in rejecting the Grand
Army doctrine that because a man was
once a celdler he is entitled te a lifetime
of publie office. This pretension in re
gard te the old soldiers '13 preposterous.
The civil officer should be selected and
retained solely because of bis efficiency.
Mayer Hewitt told the Grand Army
committee that he thought that he had
been of ns much service te the country
during the war, though net in the army,
as the average soldier, and jet he did net
consider himself te be especially entitled
te favor nnd Biippert from the govern
ment en that ncceunt; nor did anene
elsese consider him. If the theory of the
Grand Army people Is run out te its log
ical end, It would rcqulre the division of
all the land and estates In the Confederate
states among the loyal people of the
United States ; a policy te which the Be-
publican party was at one tlme Inclined,
but which Is no longer Te be maintained
In a restored union. The soldier 1ms
claim upon the country only se far as he
has disabling wounds ; for these he Is
pensioned and his claim Is discharged.

Seme tens of thousands of

The display is an event of the
season which you can -ill afford

It will be continued for a few
days.
The next Occasion is in ac
tive preparation. Watch for it.
Seme of you smiled when we
told of geed Antique Oak Side
beards, well made and well fin
ished, at $10. There was mere
smiling when you saw them,
smiles of wonder and delight.
The like has never been before
in Sideboards. Meuse around
a bit, see what ether Furniture
folks are doing. The $10 Side
board and the hundred ether
sorts of Sideboards will leek
u'gger nnd better te you by the
comparison. Se will the thou

Felding Beds. Geed reason
why you arc shy of them.
Heavy te lift, awkward te

a dead-fall for yourself te have
some of them in the house. But
what would you say of a Fold Feld

ward, nor dangerous, nor heavy
te lift ? We have it. Streng in
every part. Perfectly balanced.
Ne gearing te get out of order.
Absolutely safe. A child can

Keep the Bleed Pure
We believe Uoed'i Samparlua Is the very
bast medicine te take te keep ths blecd pare
and te expel the gennsofscrefula.sslt rheum,
and ether poisons which cause se much sntTer sntTer
leg, and sooner or later undermlne the general
health. By Its peenllar cnratlve power, Heed's
Birsiparllla strengthens the system while It
eradlatt a disease.
Karly last spring I was very much rnn
down, had nervous headache, ftlt miserable
and all that. I took Iloed's Baraaparllla and
was mnch benefitted by It. 1 recommend It
te my friends." Mas J. M. Tatlo, 1119 Knclld

Heed's Sarsaparilla
" Fer a nrst-class sprleg medicine my wife
and 1 both tblnk very highly of flood's Bar
aaparllla. We both took It last iprlng. It did
ns a grat deal of geed and we felt better
through the het weather than ever before. It
cured my wile of sick headache, from which
she has sutlered a great deal, and relieved me
of a Citr.y, tiled feeling. I think every one
eughv te take something te partly the bleed
before the het weather comes nn, and we shall
certainly take Heed's eanapat Ilia this spring."
