It needs no Investigation of the recent riots on Grand street, Now York, to prove that the Hoe press factory can .also turn out the real nrtlele in the .way of ' hoodlums. The Lesson from Shenandoah. I , T'HK POINT made bv Urn New York Tribune, that the Shen andoah riot was a natural , ' " culmination of a Ioiik series of tolerated breaches of the peane. In cluding intimidation' and abuse of men seeking to support their families by working In the mines, hanging of effi gies, stone-throwing, cat cnlls, boy cotting in a hundred variations and other outcropplngs of disrespect for the legal rights of non-strikers, as well as social ostracism of theav,lvps and chil dren of men electing to remain at work; ind that the ignorant foreigners who 'got mixed up In the Shenandoah fracas are morally less to blame than the peace oflicers who have temporised with and thereby encouraged these antecedent acts and sequences of law 'lessnpss. Is true and timely. It is another case of sowing the wind and reaping the whirlwind. The great body of Knglish speaking miners, and, "ordinarily, most of the mine workers not proficient in the use of the Knglish language are law-abiding and law-respecting. Hut where prolonged en couragement is glveni through official apathy or public timidity to the Idea that strike time is a time of license and that customary restraints do not apply when strife exists between labor and capital it Is not surprising that pas sion and prejudice go from bad to .worse. i The troops, of course, will put a stop to open violence. Their presence will also in some measure restrain the dis position of some strikers and many sympathizers to Interfere forcibly with men seeking, work. To require troops to enforce Ae lesson that liberty be longs to no class or group In the com munity, but to all, is a sorry testi monial to the thoroughness of our civilization; and it Is to he hoped that conditions may Improve until the In terposition of the military will some time cease to be a common incident of industrial progress, in the meantime, facing facts as they arc, the surest way to render the presence of soldiers superfluous In the coal fields will bo for every striker to be taught by his leaders and to recognize In his per sonal conduct that the right to work Is just as essential as the right to strike. Judge Keller's denial of the story that he had Issued Injunction against peo ple who supplied striking miners with food, was not necessary. The yarn WHS too ridiculous to he believed by any save those who feed upon tin) Im possible tales of the yellow correspond ent. 4 Home and Foreign Prices. COlinRSPONDKNT uhIss. us w- 'i U' I..

Mr. West Is one of the ablest newspaper men In the coun .try, his ncipialntnnce Is almost co-ex-tenslve wllh American public life, nnd lie thoroughly undcrstniuls the district's conditions and needs. No better selec tion could be made. An Appropriate (lift. Mil CAnNROiR'S presenta tion of the Acton library to John Morley Is one, of the most appropriate gifts ever made by a modern millionaire to a comparatively unnflluenl scholar. Time (Iocs bring its revenge In many ways. When Mr. Morley began life In London he did not escape the vicissitudes that dog the footsteps of the literary pilgrim In that vast and Inhospitable desert. He had to sell his own little library to bring him bread. It he was not too shabby like Dr. Johnson to show bis nakedness In public; If he had not to cultivate his genius like Goldsmith In a Grub street garret on the crumbs that fejl from his bookseller's table; If he did not In fine experience the pangs of starvation like De Qulncey he was by no means exempt from the terrors that assail the embryo man of letters, mak ing his way through the arid steppes and wastes that lie on each side of the path of the youth who hangs his lug gage on his pen on the journey of life. London Is today an Infinitely more delectnble place for the roving scribe than It was whfhi Mr. Morley began to explore It. Newspapers have multiplied indefinitely, so have periodicals and compilations of various kinds which may by a stretch of the imagination be called literature. The kind of task work which devotion to journalism and ephemeral letters entails Mr. Morely may have loathed; for while engaged in it, he produced works which are clas sics. He would be the last man to utter' a supercilious word or entertain a contemptuous thought of modern journalism. But as It does not require mechanical genius to run u locomotive or profound scholarship to edit a news paper, the world would have been the richer had Mr. Morley devoted to con structural literature the years he was chained through poverty at the desk of newspapei or magazine. ( The Acton library Is one or the most select collection of books In private hands In the world. Lord Acton wns u scholar of European reputation. The pity of It is that he read and thought so much and wrote so little. Although he succeeded. James Anthony Froude as historical lecturer at Oxford, one small, erudite volume Is all that Is left lo com memorate the scholarship of the pupil of Itanke, the man who was envied for bis learning by Monseu and the silent partner of Gardiner In his historical researches. It may be believed that Mr. Carnegie has made the very disposition of his library which Lord Acton himself would have wished. To have a public disposition of it would have been a misapplication In this Instance, for In the library of a scholar can only a scholar find mental nutriment. The Aoton library under John Morley's guardianship will produce those tangi ble dividends which only such an in defatigable and brilliant writer can glean from its inexhaustible' treasures- There Is some consolation In the Tact that the wet weather has rendered the 17-year locust harmless this season. Cotton. FK1UHKH, It is said, arc dull reading but that Is not true If they nre accurate and road uuderstandlugly. Fur fu that case they often compress Into brief compass Information which would fill volumes If written out In detail. Northerners as a rule pay little at tention to the cotton crop, ulthough it enters directly as well as Indirectly into their dally life. Two-thirds, pos slbjy three-fourths of all the fabrics they wear represent manufactured forms of the raw cotton picked In tho Southern states from a plant In some respectH resembling a combination of the potato and the milkweed plants bushy at the bottom like the potato and tufted at the top llko the milk weed. Last year's value of the raw American cotton crop, not saying any thing nbotit the Immensely increased value which It took on after It had passed through American looms, ex ceeded six times lilt! total assessed valuation of the city of Scranton under the new charter 1368,000,000, In round numbers The great bulk of this hav ing been produced In ten states, It can he seen how Importnnt the cotton crop Is In tho Industrial and commercial life of the Inhabitants of those states, who are literally dependent upon It for bread and butter. Kx-pretssed In an other way, tho value of one year's gro'wth of cotton In this country Is morn than three times that of 0110 year's output of anthracite coal when the mines art) running full tilt, One of the recognized authorities on cotton statistics Is Theodore H. Price, of 71 Wall street, For a number of years he has made a specialty of keep ing In touch with every shifting phaso of the cotton Industry and his esti mates of future production have Come to be accepted as almost as reliable as tho completed census. Mr, Prjce h8 recently made a calculation regarding the. cotton crop of 1002-3 which has In terest In View of this crop's economic nnd social value. Ho polled rpprosen tutlvo growers III C.'S out of n total of T.Hfi fMiMnli-lii'iidilclliir counties, the collll- Jles heard from representing 9(iti per cent, or lite total producing urea, ami upon this basis llgures that the total will npproxltnatp 10.7ii1.im bales. Two years ago the bales averaged rH,17 pounds each! last year the nvcrage rell .to noiUS pounds. Tho avcrngo for tho coming yield will probably lf some where between these former averages. Consequently liny 0110 who wishes to guess nt the tola! value has only to consul! the market reports for quota tions on cotton by Ihe pound and pro ceed to figure. Tn this general cniinecllon It may bo well lo review brlcll.V some stnllsllenl facts showing how rapidly New Kng Innd Is losing Us nld-llmo pre-eminence as the center nf the rnttnn-splu-iilng Industry and how rnpldly tho South Is learning to manufacture Its raw cotton neur the' place uf growth. In ilii twenty years from issn to won tho capital Invested In the textile In dustry In the United States increased from $I12,721,-I!ifi to $l,10t,005,Sir., or M2 per cent.; of that Increase New Rug land's share was rrom $201, SOI, 147 to Ki24.MiH,:i02. or 100 per cent.; while tho Smith's share rose from $2G,S7n,140 to $121,4fil,Oin, or 478 per cent. Tho In crease in the value of products during the same period was for the United States, from $r,32,r,7:s,4SS to $8SS.S!i2.!ir., or 0.', per cent.; for New Kngland, fronf $310,ri42,:ir.2 to $412,S7r.,!l7"', or .12 per cent.; 'for the South, from $2r,,6nS,2IO to $114, 8K7',(i(18, or 348 per cent. In 1SS0 the In vestments In the Industry In the South represented t! per cent, of nil in the country, and in 1000 II per cent. In the same period the percentage of the value of the product In the South to tho total for the whole country advanced from 4 to 13. These figures, which we take from the Manufacturers' Itecord, of Haiti more, presage an early revolution In the social lire of the cotton producing stntes. The construction of the Isth mian canal, assuring cheap and con venient transportation of textile pro ducts from the South to tho Orient, whore the coarser grades of cotton fabrics are already in great and grow ing demand, will inevitably stimulate vastly the Investment of Northern capt .tal in Southern mills. This, in turn, will open new employment to Southern ers now in the ruts of one-crop agricul ture; bring Into play a freer circulation of money helpful to all forms of busi ness exchange; lead swiftly to better schools, newspapers and tone of pub lic opinion generally, and put before the young men of the South something of more Importance than cherishing antiquated slavery-day traditions. In cidentally, so far as the negro problem can be solved save by tho slow process of evolution and natural adaptation, it will contribute appreciably and bene ficially lo a reduction of the Spilth's monomania on the subject of the color line. For, if tho negro become indis pensable to Industry and white men's prollt, he will, as In the better house holds during slavery times, bo cared for instead of exterminated. lUidyard Kipling's aunt, of pro-Boer sentiments, scorns In a fair way to make the author regret that he disap pointed the death watch placed over him some time ago.

Tho hu morist had gone to bed and bad Just sunk Into n dozo when there came a sharp rap at the door of his stateroom, Twain opened tho door, A squint-eyed fellow, wealing a check shirt and cow hide boots, stepped into tho room. "Is this Mark Twain?" ho Inquired. "Yes, I 11111 known by that name," drawled the sleepy humorist. "Well, sir. I have some inluhty Im portant business with you." "J'lenso state It." "Kaln't do It here. Hut of you como with mo you'll soon Ibid out." "I don't enrn to go nnywhero tonight except to bed." Twain replied.

The author was conducted through a muddy street anil down a dark iillev to 11 small wooden building. Ills gultie unlocked tho door, entered a room and lighted a smoky lamp, "Come right in and set down." Twain looked around anil discovered that ho was in a printing olllce, Mtrd up with a hand press and a few cases of typo. "Set down," Twain seated himself on a box, "You nre now, sir," said tho stranger, "within th" portals of tho Weekly Prog ress, 11 paper that circulates extensively throughout the county, and of which I am tho editor, I wanted tn hi lug you Itpru to show you, as convincing proof of my standing, tho tools and appliances of my honorable profession, I could, on tho boat, havo given tho liiformntlon that I Intended to deliver, but without these surroundings you might havo thought mo a fraud, Nov, this Is what I want to tell you.
