The Philadelphia Viexn In carrying jirlma'los with a vengeance these days. Just (i round for Censure. IX UXI'ItttSSIXG Informally and not for publication the opinion that Admiral Schley's conduct during and since the Santiago campaign constitutes a stain upon the honor of the naval service, Captain Chadwlck said what nine-tenths of the naval ofllcers familiar with the facts conscientiously believe, ond what the Santiago captains unanimously im plied when they advised the president not to promote any ofllcer of the North Atlantic fleet who. under the charge of "reprehensible conduct," had failed to demand a court of Inquiry. Nevertheless, since Captain Chad wick's rcmaik reached the newspapers nnd was spread broadcast, and he was too much of a man to hide behind the sneak piactlce of claiming that the reporter lied: and also since the ex piesslon by a subordinate of language tending to reflect upon a technically supcilor ofllcer Is a violation of the rules of the navy. It Is altogether proper, nnd for purposes of discipline vitally necessary, that he should bo censured. The censure should be drawn In the strongest words of which the English language Is capable. It thus will pass over the head of Captain Chadwlck, whose offense Is technical merely, and find Its real maik in the ofllcer whose questionable record and manner are the cause of just offense to ofllcers who value the good name of the navy. The Itev. W. F. Crafts, of Washing ton needlessly Impugns the veracity of Chaplain Pierce concerning the saloon question In the Philippines when, he says that Mr. Tierce's anxiety to take $100,000 back with him Impels him to tell the best storv he can. The Rev. V. F. Crafts of Wash ington has never been to the Philip pines and Chaplain Pierce has. The Hethodist General Conference AKKLIGIOUS convocation whose proceedings will bo of Interest to many millions of citizens is to assemble In Chicago today, being the twenty-flth quadrennial general conference of the Methodist Kplscop.il church, the au pierne ecclesiastical couit of that veiy numeioiiH denomination. Its sessions will continue for one month and be attended by neatly MM delegates, min isterial and lay, constituting the llowor of American Methodism. Questions of Interest both within and without the citcle of Methodism aie on the programme for considera tion and decision. One of these, per haps the foiemost In Importance, Is the question of admitting women to membership in the conference. y what might bo considered a pallia mentary uise, this Is likely to be cnlled up very, soon. One hundred and fifty-one provisional lay delegates, K.0 of whom aie men, nro to ask for ad mission and a two-thluls vote is newaiy to admit. The sentiment of the chinch Is overwhelmingly In fuor of their admission; but the 151st can illdale. tepiesentlng the Illinois con feience. Is a woman. Mrs. McMuhon. Her credentials are tegular, but If sho Is admitted, then women generally cannot longer be .denied admittance, hence efforts nie being made to In duee her not to seek admission In this nuinner. but to let the question of the status jif women ailso In Its tegular oider.' We 'have 'not heaul whether or not she has yielded. ' The question of the time limit In pastorates Is to atlse, with the city chuiches geneially faora.ble to Its abolition and the village and jural churches as a rulc'Yjl)os'ed. It Is u. subject with-good uiuments on both sides, but It seems to be conceded that the removal of the time limit Is inevit able at 'no distant date. The attitude of the Methodist chut eh toward amusements presents a topic likely to lead to animated debate at this conference. To the oilglnal rulo forbidding Methodists to take "such diversions as cannot be used In the namCjOf the, Lord Jesus." the confer ence of 172 added a ' paragraph of specifications which Included, "Neglect of duties, of any kind, Imprudent con duct, Indulging sinful tempeis or "words, the buying, selling or using In toxicating liquors as a beverage, sign ing petitions In favor ot granting li cense for the sale ot Intoxicating liquors, becoming bondsmen for per sons engaged In tho traffic, tenting property as h pluce In or on which to manufacture or sell Intoxicating li quors, dancing, playing t games of chance, attending theaters, horse races, circuses, dancing parties or patronU Lntf dnii'i; t uchools, or -tuktng such other nmufenicntB rtfl are obviously of n misleading or quentlonuulo moral temlcncy, or disobedience to the or der nnd 'Discipline' of the church." It Is contended by ninny thnt this pai'itKmpli of speellleatlons Is unneces sary: that It InfrlnKcs upon the Juris diction of the Christian conscience. Atempt will he made to secure Its elimination, which would cause n re version to the original tule and remit to each Individual a wider liberty of neiHomit choice. It Is a fact that the Inhibition uealnst theaters, card play Ittfr and dancing Is with many Metho dists a dead letter. Social conditions continually change. That practice whlrh may by one generation be looked upon as sinful Is by another deemed Innocuous. All agtee that It Is the Hplrlt of the moral law which should be preserved Inviolate. The ac tion of the general conference upon this question will be awaited with far teaching Interest. The decision of Colonel Harvey, executive head of the publishing house of Harper & Uros., to restore the sub scription price of Harper's Magazine to ?4 n year was made upon the theory thnt the "American people arc always willing to pay good prices if they can got what they want." This Is as true in lelatlon to newspapers as In rela tion to magazines. The best Is the cheapest, regardless of pi Ice. The Law as to Strikes. Till: OPINION of Judge Hut sey, of Luuerne county, permanently enjoining the striking employes of the Temple Coal and Iron company and the ofllcers of the United Mine Workers of America from Interfering with the property of the company or with employes of the company who wish to woik. Is a definition of the law which possesses widespread inter est. We ackowiedgo our Indebtedness to the WIlkes-Barre Record for tho text of the opinion, which is given in full below: "This case comes here upon a mo tion to continue a preliminary Injunc tion allowed on the 14th of April, 1900. The plaintiff Is a corporation organized under the statutes of the state pro viding for the creation of corporations, for the put pose of owning and operat ing conl mines. Cnder the franchises granted to the plaintiff on the 13th of April. 1900. It had possession of two collieries In the borough of Swoyers vllle, this county, known as Harry E. and Forty-Fort. These collieries were operated In connection with extensive underground mining developments. In the operation of the mines it was essential to their preservation that thb water should be constantly removeff from the workings by means of largo pumps. "On or obout, but pi lor to the 13th of Apt II, 1900, the miners and laborers engaged in the business ot mining in these workings went upon a strike for higher wages. TTpon the 13th of April, 1900, Anthony Carmanosklc Oeorge Mallla and John Rogers, tho defendants named, called upon the In side foreman of the plaintiff at tho Harry K. colliery and said to him that they came as a constituted com mittee of a labor organization known as Loral 452, United Mine Workers ot Ameilea, to which the miners and Ia boreis at these collieries belong who were on a strike, and that unless the demands made by the men who had quit work, upon the company were speedily granted, they would try to stop the engineers, firemen and pump men fiom woiklng. "On ncount of these threats, the engineers, fit omen and pumpmen ate in fear for their personal safety It they remain at work, and If the said threats are carried Into operation great and Ineparable los will bo In dicted upon the plaintiff's property. Upon the date fixed Tor the hearing of the motion to continue the Injunc tion, the defendants did not appear and made no answer, so that the facts alleged In the bill of complaint of the pluintlff must be taken as confessed. "If, as a consequence of the said threats, the engineers, firemen and pumpmen are driven ftom their place, or If the said threats are carried Into execution, the result will be, that tho underground woiklngs, by the rapid accumulation of water, in a very short time would cover the pumps nnd make them Ineffective. The injutles result ing fiom the filling up of these mines would be so many and of so extensive and varied a character to the woik lngs that there enn be no question that It would result In great and irreparable Injury to the plaintiffs. "It appeals fiom the testimony that the underground woiklngs cover In tho neighborhood of 1,000 acres. In the Keel Ash ein theie are two pumps, ten by twelve by sixteen, one sixteen by twelve by ten and one sixteen by twelve by ten and there are several pumps In the other collleiles that would be affected by the threatened action of the de fendants. Our Pennsylvania decisions are veiy clear In cases of this nature. "In the case of the Wick China com pany, appellant, vs, W. K. Ilrown and otheis, 164 Pa. 449. It Is held that a Piellmlnaiy Injunction will be awarded nnd should not be dissolved after hear ing where It appeals from the bill and Injunction oflidavits that the defend ants, striking employes of the plaintiff, refuse to permit other persons to work lor plaintiff and that trey endeavor to accomplish their purpose by threats, menaces, Intimidation and opprobrious epithets addressed to plaintiff's ofllcers and workmen, and by gatheilng In crowds at plaintiff's place of business and at boarding houses of their work men and by following the workmen to and fiom woik, stopping them on the highway und holding them up to tho ildlcule and contempt of bystanders. "In Murdock, Kerr & Co. vs. Walker and others, appellunts, 152 Pa, 595, the court holds that a court of equity will restrain by Injunction, discharged em ployes, members of a union, fiom gath eilng about their former employer's place of business and from following the workmen whom he has employed In place of tho defendants and from Interfering with them by threats, menaces, Intimidation, ridicule and an noyance on account of their working for tho plaintiff. The law of our high est coutts Is the lawvas laid down In many other appellate courts of the United Btntes and England. "In Vegelahn vs. Qunster, 167 Mass. 92, In a very well considered opinion It Is held thnt an employer has tho right to engage all persons who nro willing to work for him nt such prices as may bo mutually agreed upon, and persons employed or seeking employ ment have a corresponding right to en ter Into or remain In tho employment of any person or corporation willing to employ them. Commonwealth vs. Perry, 153 Mass. 117: (31 Am. St. Itep. 5.13) Peofile vs. Cilllson, 109 N. Y 389; (4 Am. St. Hep. 463): riracevllle Coal company vs. People, 147 III. 66; (37 Am. St. Hep. 206); Ritchie vs. People, 163 111., 93; (46 Am. St. Rep. 316); Low vs. Rees Printing company, 41 Neb. 127; (13 Am. St. Rep, 670). No one can law fully Interfere by force or Intimidation to prevent employers or persons em ployed or willing to be employed, from the exorcise ot these rights. Intimida tion Is not limited tothrcats of violence or a physical injury to person or prop erty. It hns a broader significance nnd there may also bo a moral Intimida tion which Is Illegal. A combination to do Injurious nets expressly directed to another by way of Intimidation or con. stralnt, cither of himself or of the per sons employed or seeking to be em ployed by him, Is outside ot tho allow able competition nnd Is unlawful, "In Hamilton Brown Shoe company vs. Saxey, 131 Missouri 212, the court holds thut an Injunction In cases" of this kind does not hinder the defend ants doing' nnythlng that they may not do In violation of law. They are free men nnd hnve a right to quit the em ployment of the plaintiff whenever they see fit to do so and no one can prevent them; nnd whether their act is wise or unwise. Just or unjust, Is nobody's business but their own. And they have a right to use fair persua sion to Induce others to Join them in their quitting, but when fair persua sion Is exhausted they have no right to resort to force or threats of vio lence. The law will protect their free dom and their rights, but It will not permit them to destroy tho freedom and rights of others. The same law which guarantees the defendants In their right to quit the employment of the plaintiff at their own will and pleasure, also guarantees the other employes the right to remain nt their will and pleasure. These defendants nro their own masters, but they are not the masters of other employes, and not only nre they not the mas ters of other employes, but they nro not even their guardians. There is a maxim of our law to the effect that one may exercise his own right as he pleases, provided that he docs not thereby prevent nnother from exer cising his right as lie pleases. The maxim, as a rule of law, Is nearer than any other rule In our law to the golden rule of Divine au thorlty, 'That which you would have others do unto you, do ye even so unto them,' While the strict enforcement of the golden rule Is beyond the mandate of a hu man tribunal, yet courts of equity, by injunction, do restrain men who are so disposed from exercising their own lights as to destroy the rights ot otheis. Shery vs. Perkins, 147 IMass 212; Longsnore Printing Co. vs. How ell.. 26 Or. 527. "The defendant" have the right to refuse to work for the plaintiff. They cannot, however. Interfere with the personal wishes of others who desire to work by tin eats, menaces or dis play of force. As the engineers, the firemen and the pumpmen desire to continue In their present employment with the plaintiff, and as the facts contained In the bill nie confessed, that tho defendants, by means of threats, hnve Intimidated and are, as a consequence, about to drive from their woik the engineers, the tire men and the pumpmen, and In the event of the employes being driven from the duties ut which they are now engaged, great and Irreparable Injury will be done to the property rights of tho plaintiff, under the law we ennn it do otherwise than to allow the motion now pending befote us to continue the Injunction." John Alexander Dowio, the Chicago faith healer, has embarked In the lace making enterpiise. This Is a move in which he will probably be able to In duce the public to have faith. The faces upon a good many of the syndicate" newspaper fashion plates have evidently been drawn by artists who 'ito frequently called upon to settle dicssmakers' bills. Chicago has demonstrated that much admiration still exists for the admiral, even If political enthusiasm for Dewey, the piesldentlal candidate, Is of an un certain character. The Boston Armenians, in a public meeting, have Intimated the General Lew Wallace's knowledge of tho sul tan of Turkey, Is, to mildly express It, superficial.

The contrivance, besides presenting a remarkable appearance, Is unique In many ways, anJ Is On the Elation of 0. S. Senator From tho New York Son. Till! house of leprisenlathrs, by a large mi Jorit, has rctoinnu nded an amendmrnt of our federal constitution providing that tho senators allotted to each state shall he choin by the people thereof instead of b) the legislature. It Is said that a demand to the same effect will be m.idf in the platform put forth by the Deniocralle Xational comcntlon. What lcvr of the matter was taken by the Bu llion of our federal organic law ? An examina tion of Klllot'a report of the debates in the Philadelphia comenlion fn !S"s will Mow tint ecn the proposal that members ot the house of representathes should be chosen by the people encountered much opposition and that the ap plication of the name method of election to the senate had not a sh.gle .nhocatc. When llandolph's resolutions, compiling what is known as the "Virginia Plan," were discussed at Philadelphia In committee of the whole, the germs of a national or centralizing part) on the one hand, and of a stale rights party on the other, were at once disclosed, The ideal of fh- state rights party was subsequently formulated in (he "Xew Jersey Plan," which would have continued the congress of the confederation, a unicameral body, in which each state had un equal oice, and to which the delegates were chosen by the state legislatures. Only with the utmost reluctance did the small states recede from this position, and the concessions ultimate ly made to them by wa of totrpromlse must be held to form the fundamental consideiaflon in return for which they accepted the constitu tion. o The election by the people of the tlist bun Ii of the proposed federal legislature, the bunch which was to icxclse the name of the house of rcpresentatUcs, was opposed by lioger blierm in, of Connecticut, who thought tint the less the people had to do cllnrtb. with the federal, as distil gulshcd turn the state goMintiunt, the belter. He was ciy waiuitt- suipuitcil by l.i bridge fieri), of Massichusctts, to whose con fidence in the people the lcbelllou lalcl) headed b bha) In that state had given a seeie shock. "All the evils we evperiencc," said tleny, "lio,v from excess of democracy. The people do not lack viitue, but are the dupes of ptetc-nded pa triots. In Massac liusetts they ale dally misled into Ihe most baleful measures and opinions." He had been "too republican hcutoiore," he said, "but had been taught by experience the dancer of a levelling spiilt." The .Soulh Carolina del egates esteemed the choke of icprescntatiics In the people impiaclieable in :i scatleicd popil latlon. Wilson, Madison and Mi-nn, on the other hand, aigued that no lepublic-an govern inent could stand without popular confidence, which confidence could be secured oiil) b ghin,r fo the people the election of one branch of Hie federal legislature. lietrv's colleagues from Massachusetts went against him, anil Hie elec tion of the house of leprcscntallscs by the people was earned. Vow Jcisev and '-nutb Carolina, hoecr, pro-ed uiivieldiug in their opposition, while Connecticut oiJ Delaware were divided, --o When the method of choosing the mciubets of the second biaueli of Hie federal leglslatuie, llie branch eventually called the senate, came up for debate, James Wilson, of IVnniv iv.ini.i, pioposed that the seuatois should be chosen not, indeed, dneclly by the people; but by electors chosen by the people. Oliver Kllsvsorth, of Connecticut, replied: 'The state I-gisl.tttiris are more vein petent to mike a judicious choice than the peo ple at large. Without the existence and co operation of the stales a republic an government cannot be supported over o great au extent of ccuntrv. We know that the people of the statea aie strongly attached to their own constitutions. If you hold up a vteni of gencinl government destructive of thrli constitutional lights they will oppose It. The only ehanee vie have to support J general government Is to giaft it on the stale governments. ' fiecrge Head, of Dela ware, proposed the appointment of scnilors by the state executive out of candidates to be nomi nated by tho state legislaluie, but this motion was not seconded. Dickinson, of Delaware, sup ported by the smaller stales, insisted upon tli election of the members of the second bunch flhe senate) 'u the ti-a le?isljl.ires. &nr! the --,-.-.- , . .-. . clc mind was accepted in the committee of the t whole) and subsequent!) alfiimeil in the con ventlon by all the stales except IVniHvh onl.i and Virginia. It is i.otcworthy that the oppo sition of the last-named state was based iipin the belief that the election ot emtom by Hie state legislatures would involve on equal repie sentatlon of the stales in the senate ot second branch ot the fcdcial astemhl.v. Such equal icp rcfculatlon Virginia long und strenuously op losed. - fl it was at n rail) stage of Hie piocrrelings at Philadelphia thai the demand of the smaller states that their delegates in the senate or see ond branch of the federal assembly should he chosen by the state Iglslatures was formally con ceded by u large majority. Xo attempt was afterward made to recede fiom the position. Had such an attempt been made successfully the pin posed constitution would never have been adopted by the smaller states. They considered tho elec tion of senators by the state legUlatuies essen tial to their permanent retention ot the light ot equal representation in the senate; tor, t Hey aigued, senators representing directly vast popu lations would, sooner or later, Insist upon pro portionate weight in Hie second braneli ot the fedcial assembly. So long, on the other hand, as senators, being chosen by slate legislatures, simply represented their state in Its corporate capacity, the authority of a senator's mandate would remain unaffected by the number of in habitants fn his commonwealth. from the Philadelphia Inquirer The present method of electing seuatois is imt satisfactory, and lids Is shown by Hie fact that tluee vacancies in Hie I'nited States senate now exist. Titers will be more vacancies hereafter, for Ihe senato has clrclaied that in close stairs a few conspirators may block au election at liny time and thus force vacancies. This decision was made by a handful of (republicans Joined to tho great liody of Democrats; but, nevertheless, It Is a decision of the senate, Just the same. Con spiracy has been Indorsed and personal spleen has been made fashionable, Hereafter, then, we may expect many deadlocks and many vacant seals. There aie but two uiji to meet this dan ger. One is by the passage of i simple law by congiess piavidlng that the candidate receiving the hlsbest number of votes In a legislature halt DE WILDE. . . , kmimtmm rttife ::mm'ttmm " w Tmmimmm V3 Mi it " .MKlLtllvt' 5 ;is'i j. itrt.-ti.ts y "tevtmnw "riii'seiiif TO ilmkP ! said to have many commendable features. be declared rice led. The otiier Is by a constitu tional amendment providing for a popular vote There ts no reason why a senator should be obliged to icc-cive n majority of the entire num ber of persons voting, for in all other cases, In eluding governois and members of the house of representatives, a plurality vote elects.

The result of these irreerular hours for caciiie; was lhat I had indigestion, dyspepsia and constipation. After eatincr a meal I would feel all bloat ed, was coostamly belcfclnc had a sour tasle In my mouth, and at times, while I was rating, the food would be forcibly ejected from my mouth, placinc; me in a very embarrassing position when eating with any one. I had violent headaches, v. as very restless at night, unable to sleep.bccame yellow as a colored person, the remit of being consiipated; in fact, my health became such that I was compelled to tjve up niy position. After suffering five years I became discouraged with life until about three months ago, while stopping at Kocldand Lake, N.
