The Pullman Strike. It is to be doubted whether all the organizations possible to civilized man can overcomo the fact that when a la borer sells his labor to an employer he enters into a contract which, lu thn or dinary course of events, can be broken only when the condition! of the con tract are violated by one or the other, or both of the parties iumwdiato to it. Thus when a workman at Pullman, 111., enters into an agreement with the man agement of the Pnllimn Palace Car company respecting labor and wages, any deviution by ithor party from the conditions specified in the agreement is a proper sulject for settlement at Pull man, 111., aud nowhere else. If a set tlement cannot be made there, it is the lgal right of either party to withdraw from the compact, the one to aoek work nnd the other to suvk workers, else where. This is both the common law and the common sense of the thing, plainly stilted. One year ago Eugene V. Debs an nounced that hn bad orginized the labor of railroads into a body called the American Railway union, one of whose fundamental principles wus the advocacy of moral suasion aud arbitra tion instead of the uie of boycotts and strikes in the Battlement of wage dif ferences. This union embodies the manual laoor performed on 05,000 milea of American railway; and holds ant ject to its will the commercial and industrial welfare of nearly two-thirds of thia nation. Mr. Debs has never been elcted by the American people to govern their destiuies in this manner. He baa received no appointment from them to assume a greater prerogative than was held by Julius Caes.-tr, Char lemagne or Louis the Magnificent of France. Yet one stroke of bis pen, made becunse 3 000 car builders at Pullman failed to agree with their em ployers as to wages, has sent into idle ness 300,000 men, deprived the families of these men of $4,300,000 in lost wages in one week; put a check to the industrial movements of the inhabitants of twenty -ire states and caused iucouvenienca to ea sily 40,000,000 American citizara?, and perhaps more. In this estimate we have not computed the losses sustained by the railways themselves, for having simply Insisted upon their right to haul ancb cars as they pleased over their own tracks ly aid of the labor which they paid for. This aggregate undoubtedly lseuormons; and is inevitably distribu ted not only among the "bloated bond holders" aud "graspiug plutocrats" of whom tbe professional agitator speaks with fluency, but also among tbe well to do and middle claseea, whose small pavings are invested in railway securi ties, the moderate dividondi on which constitute an important moans of sup port. Neither does it take iotosooouut the friction and ill-freiini: that, if on (rendered now and restrained during the crisis, will sooner or Liter find vent to the material discomfort of all con cerned. In this light the strike which Air. Debs has offlered becomes more than a great mistake. It become Almost fqnivalent to a public crime. The or ganisation over which he preside! has never been clothed with power to come 1 etween employer aud employed at Pullman, III., or anywhere else and, when told to stand aside, given the delegated authority to retaliate with a strike tbat bat cost an much in one week as did the war for American in dependence in on eventful year. He lins simply usurped tbia function, fie has in effect, if not in intention, put himself Above the common law, above the courts, above the common welfare; and baa decilel with extraordinary as sumption that he will make tbo Pull man diffrnce a pretext for a demon stration of bis power. Can thonghtf nl labor approve bis conrst? It is, in any event, the men who work who must pay for this groat blonder. They must pay for it in wages lost, in influence sacrificed, in increased cost of railway service, in crippled opportunities for remunerative employment, and in the reaction incident to trouble unneces sarily and improperly excite! Labor has nothing to gain and much to lose by permitting itself to be drawn with growing frequency into great strikes tbat co9t ton-fold more tbat they unit edly accomplish. It should shun tbe men who deceive it in thia manner; and Btu.ly instead the peaceful and lawful processes ot the ballot aud the press. The Washington journal which ar gues for Dew White house should not forgot that we also used s new presi dent. ; Tbb assertion in Snndsy's dis patches that all the trade unions in Chicago, and possibly all in Illinois, contemplated going tint on strike out of sympathy with the Pullman strik ers, is incredible. Hire are 150,000 busy artisans with no disputes of their own to settle and with nothing greater than fraternal sympathy to warrant their desertion of employ ment and consequent vast crippling of trade. What would 'it profit them to leave work alio, merely because 2,500 Pullman car builders hare left it? What ioo 1 would It do for the earlier strikers? No doubt among the execu tive ofQoiuls of these Chicago uuior.s there are some who are kuaviiU aud many who are foollih; but Wo cannot yet believe that among the rank aud flic there is sufficient folly to warrant a strike of sucti magnitude and cost upon literally no provocation at all. The would will never be reformed by clubs or bombs. When fifty-five thousand miles of railway have to be tied up for weeks to settle a trilling wage difference in one car shop, something is manifestly ont of alignment in the foroesof civiliza tion. Strikes, to win respeet, must not be positively silly in their origin. Thk person with a future in Ameri can politics is the man who carries bis sovereignty under his own bat. One Magnificent Investment. The next two months will be months of maximum mortality among iufuuts. It requires the utmost care and many facilities to successfully bring the wee ones through this heated term, Many mothers, oppressed by poverty and the cares of a large household, nra unable to give to their infants the indefatiga ble nursiug that is necessary to their preservation. Even where some mothers have the time to watch over their babes, financial considerations prevent tbo giving of needed atten tions, such, for instance, as a trip to the couutry and a srjourn out in the fresh air, , This, however. Is an opportune time for charitably inclined Scrantouians to remember those local ageucies which supply facilities for the proper nurture of infants and whloh inuke a specialty of providing free summer homes for tbe littlo children of tbe poor. There are a number of these beneficent agen cies in successful operation among ns. One, the St. Stephen's summer borne at Dai ton, is familiar through its ad mirable ministrations that have re sulted in uutold goou. lSeiore going away ou his annual outing tbe well-to do Scrantonian ought to write out a nice check and mail it to the treasurer of the Daltou borne fund; or, better still, be ought to write out a number of checks and mail one to each of the treasurers of these various local insti tutions of summer relief, all of wbicb are pursuing a noble work. Tbe excursionist who shall do this prior to his own vacatiou will enjoy himself better, get more tun out of his pleasure trip and come back with a healthier expression ou his countenance than he could possibly experience on a basis of complete selfishness. We have no desire to sermoniz . We are speak ing merely of a first class business in vestment. - .. Keir Haddig told the naked truth; aud conventionality is correspondingly shocked and indignant. Convention ality admits it was tbe truth; in faot, that's why it's mad. Looking Ahead. That was an interesting canvass which a St. Louis paper made of the preferences of tbe delegates to the Denver Republican league convention for president in 1800, Out of 800 who named their choice Governor McKinley of Ohio, got 087; ex Speaker Rjed 142, including forty from Pennsylvania j ex-President Harrison twenty-three, and Senator Cameron twenty-oight, besides several scattering choices. The most noteworthy feature of this poll is the small vote recorded for General Harrison. Whether this was due to his expressed refusal to be con sidered a candidate or to a belief that his renomiaation two years hence would bo inexpedient may be left to the reader's individual judgment. The main fact is that if this canvass fairly represents party sentiment at this time and the delegates were evenly distributed over all sections- General Harrison will not figure in a decisive manner in the national con vention two years hence. There ar reasons for this that in volve no reflection upon the ex-prasi-dent'a character, ability and thorough devotion to high civic ideals. In the first place, bis overwhelming defeat, two years sgo, after an administration of exceptional solidity and cleanliness, involves in many minds a aorions, if not fatal. 1cm of availability. There is no use denying that that defeat, in some of its aspects, was deliberate, The American peopio do not, even in moments of craz nnd delusion, ad; minister to faithful officials the robuko that was Administered to President Harrison without having lomi real ground of complaint. It is probably true that they rt sin ted the interfer ence of southern officeholders in the Minneapolis convention office holders who.'althongh lacking in Republican constituents and unable to promise a single electoral vote, nevertheless held the balance of power and used it to pay off debts of personal gratitude re gardless of the wishes of the chief Republican states. The break with Mr. Blaine, too, following in a long train of apparently studied suubs of the great state secretary, perhaps bad its iuflnenco. Added to all was a lack of party enthusiasm and a failure to inspire popular confidence which, if somowhnt inexplicable, were neverthe less powerful, as any study of tho re turns will show. While it would be possible to elect General Harrison in 1890. or any other Republican, it is doubtless the feeling ot a majority of Republicans that he has had his torn and that there are other lenders, equally wise, good and strong, wiio have deserved high honor from their fellow citizens. The marked preference for Governor McKinley exhibited at Denver Is not surprising. It is tbe logical outgrowth of his prominence in the fight for pro tection to home industries, of his per sonal pnrity and high ssnse of honor and of tbe great reaction which has been caused by Demooratio mislegisla tion. Many Republicans feel under personal obligation to Major McKinley for the spectacle he has given them of a man in pnblio life wbo can be poor, trne and honest withont losing either influence or popularity. In days of jobbery, spoils and eorraption his clean personality, surrounded by all the quiet attributes of reputable manhood and surmounted by high ability, looms up as tbe bay tree in a desert. Even If tbey never elect him president, they nave bnilt a monument or grstituae to him in the respect which they every where feel for him which abundantly recompenses him and provides an im portant legnoy to coming generations. It is early yet to say who should be named by the party two years henee. The robust leadership of Mr. Reed, peerless la oongress and fearless on the battlefield, may yet recommend Itself as most advantageous. Bat there will. even in the event ot Mr. Seed's nomi nation, be a popular admiration for Major McKinley whioh few men have claimed and fewer still so well de served, Illinois Democrats are boasting so loudly because it would take a 40,000 Ilopubllcun majority to smash their re cent gerrymander that the people of the Sucker state are more thau likely to provide the 40,000 together with an ex tra 10,000 for exemplary purposes. F OR AND About Woman. A funny incident occurred the other day ou a Duuuiore suburban trent car which caused a ripple of fun nud clearly fore KhaUowod the coming wumun. A bright, innuly lookmc miss hailing It spraug on. The jaunty hut, Immaculate shirt front, tuo perfect lonr-ln-Land tie, completed a uiuHt striking tout ensemble. And tbe pulled down vest was, as the boys Buy, "out of sixht." Thero was plouty of standing room Inside the car. Thero were the usual number of tired looking mou sitting sido ways with faces bnried in tho evening paper, aud the mine Bprinklinir of callow youth guziug into vacuity. Tho lonely simp nuiig mvitiugiy. me bright uiise, looking in, took m the situation, aud coolly planted her natty body llriuly against tho door jam on the platform. Ttio (lou't-offor-iiitt-a-aeat look was enough, No oue did. The conductor well, he wan distressed. Ills arm would reacti forth and come back without touching bur (he dare not), us she swayed and bouuceJ, as the car Douuced, a only Hcrauion cars can. Poor conductor, lie dnrtid not come inside to collect fsrus, he dared do uothiug hut walcb. Kho well, her manly ab straction was lovely aud how it deepened hs we puBSid the culm heap. Wo could fancy her planning a "comer iu coal." At we whirled round a comer the auxioty became painful. The tiny lonu braced itself against tho bottom step ready for a spring. Tbo conductor made a frantic uivo for tbe bell rope as the chic creature glided off aud waived away with that OelicioUHly uouclislent air which only a Womau can assume under the most trying circumstances. The conductor gasped, "Well, J never 1" The nieu looked tnought f ul. Aud we women we saw the bigu of the times. Car Fake: Have you ever watched tbe warfare Uf two women over car fare f E'icli atluiue with gonurons feoling, Depth ot heart aud purse revealing; Kach umpired with gentle horror Lest the other should pay for her, liut take uote the more insistent Uf tbe combatants persistent, Slio whose hand moat promptly snatches At her pocketbook's stiff catches, She who murmurs. "Don't be strange, deur. It's all right, 1'vo got tbe change, dear!'' She though 1 am sad to say it Always lets the other pay it ! Iwici'tcan Jlebrew. During a libel suit recontly brought against her before Judgo Putnam, of Bos ton, by Hepresentative Elijah Morse, Helen M. Uougar was forced to udmit that in the last presidential campaign she received jj,000 for lifteen speeches. Iu 1800 she re ceived (1,000 from the Prohibition party for speaking once or twice per day for a month. She also said she made like speeches in other states and received some compensation. She also admits that she stumped the state of Indiana for Blame and Logan in 1SS1, but only received $100 for speecties outside the state. She also stumped the states of Wisconsin, Illinois aud Kansas for Blaine nud Logan In 1SS1 and received pay. The emotional man, as a rule, is not givou to extraordinary demonstrations of affection, aud tho particular specimen of the geuna coucerned in the follow. uj narrative from the Deiroit Free Pns was no exception: The prosecuting attorney iu the breach of promise case thought be would make life a bnrdou to the unfortunate young man who was the unwilling defendant. "Do you mi-an to say," he asked after a lot of embarrassing questions, "that after you had been absent for an entire month you did uot ills the plaintiff, to whom you were en gaged to be married, whnn you first saw her on your return?" "1 do," responded the defendant firmly. "Will you make that statement to the jury?" "Certainly, if necessary." "Do yon think thoy would believe you?'1 "One of them would, I know." "Ah, Indeed. And why should ho. pray?" "Because he was presout wheD I first saw her. He was at the gate when 1 rode up, and she stuck her bea t out of the second story window, and I told her 'how d'y,' and said I'd bo back to supper iu half an hour. I'm no giraffe," aud every body in tho court room smiled except tho attorney. Aidh to Coolness: Ico. A good temper. Plenty of exercise. Abstention from alcohol.

ForTiiE Timir.vi:: O'er tbe lair earth a holy stilluoBs reigns, As fair Aurora opes tbe nates of day; Forth on liis car; o'er meadows, fields aud plsins, Young llelics starts alouguis miulit way. The golden our sublimely rolls aloug, Athwart great clouds of rolling, cease lets snow; And nature smiles triumphant, as each song Of praise arises from tbe earth bolow. God, Tbou art great, mysterious and di vine; Unfathomable grandonr wreathes Thy name: Through those dark mists Thy wonders ever shine, Which hurl the works of man to wreck and shame. Oh, great creation, wonderfully made Out of tbe deep an.1 vasty nothingness; Tbe tree, tbe rosebud and each grassy blade Forever speak of Thy great mightiness. It was but yesterday I saw a bird la tbe mm sordid tbroes of deathly pain; Although I hoard It breathe a teader word, 1 bonded low; and board the word again. It whispered "God" in aocents sweet and low, As on its tiny form a sunbeam played; It seemed to think; nnd greater, seemed to know, That the eheea ot death Rs form ar rayed., I've seen Old Winter on bis frozen ear Hurling , the cold bluetB through the wuuumna imr; And smiling Spring diffusing from afar, Her ravs of Kindness on tbe chilly air, I asked tbe river as it sweetly sang "Whence art thou bound, Oh Di cipn. so full of glee r She answered back; sod viewless echo rang "Mortal, to God and dim eternity," I strolled along where fragrant flowers grow, In woodrous clusters, beautiful and fair: I stood, I marvelled; saw them softly blow Their pleasiug fragranoe on tbe dewy air. How fair, how varied nature's stencil gleamed On every petal, wonderful aud true; Ileavon's transcendent rays incessant soomod, To mingle sweetly with their beauteous hue. Last night I gazed upon tbe welkin dome, Uupillared wonder, boundless, vast ana dim; The amber clouds, the moving sea of foam, Seemed to my soul the counterpart of Him. 1 laid me down to sleep. I dreamt 1 laid 'Twixt tifo aud death in some enchanted grove; Anon! athwart the sceue a vision strayed; And whiskered sottly to me, "God is love." Ukokuk W. Bowbn. Providence, To., Juno au.
