Washington Notes.
In the Senate, Thursday, Sherman made
a speech on tariff and finances, he ridicul
ed the compromise tariff measure now be
fore the Senate andsaid that the refiners had
written the sugar schedule, that distress
would foL'ow the adoption of the bill, etc.
On Friday it was said that ClevelMd
would not sign the Compromise tariff bill,
if it passed both houses, as he considers it
a violation of the party pledges. What
of the testimony given before the Sugar
Investigating Committee leaked out reveal
ed a tissue of evasion and equivocation,
Sec'y. Carlisle and Senator McPherion ap
peared to great disadvantage. The Sec'y.
wrote part of the Sugar Schedule and
McPberson acknowledged to speculation
in sugar. Two Democrats, Hill of N. .
and Irby oi S. C. will Tate against the
tariff bill, and therefore the Democratic
managers were humoring the three Popu
list Senators. They gave way to Allen of
Nebraska in the lumber schedule, who
then, with Kyle and Peffer demanded
changes in the woolen goods schedule.
In the House, Monday the long and
tedious debate on the bill to repeal the
10 ner cent, tax on State bank currency
was lilted away up
level by Congressman John Dalzeii, oi
Pittsburg, who spoke for over an hour in
oppositioA to this Democratic .scheme £
start the country on the back track to
"wild cat'' money. Mr. Dalzell took up
the constitutional and legal aspects of the
question, and delivered what was by all
odds the most concite, logical and convinc
ing argument yet made in the House dur
ing the discussion.
Tuesday, Senator Chandler boldly
charged that the Democratic leaders allow
ed the Sugar Trust to make up the sugar
schedule, also that Senatori HSD epeculat
ed in Sugar Trust stocks, bat the SUGAR
schedule was passed, and it was predicted
that the whole bill would pass before the
20th.
On Wednesday the House by a vote of
170 to 102, voted down the Cox amend
ment providing for the unconditional re
peal of the tax on State bank
Seventy-three Democrats voted against
their party leaders in the matter.
Riot at McKeesport.
An ugly riot occurred at McKeesport
Tuesday.
About 240 of the employees of the Act
ional Tube Works, returned to the mill
that morning and resumed their old osit
ions. This enraged the strikers and their
friends, and at noon fully 5,000 people y r-A
gathered in the neighborhood of the mill
and threatened the lives of those employed
inside. The management of the mill re
fused to allow the men to leave the mill
for dinner and the strikers waited anxious
ly until evening. As soon as the workmen
left the mill for supper they were attacked
and beaten, and the management decided
to keep the bulk of them in the mill over
night. Beds and bedding wore supplied.
Provisions were sent in and all arrange
ments were completed to make the work
men comfortable.
The strikers who had leen waiting im
patiently all the day for the others to
abondon their work, found themselves
beaten for the time and then they became
desperate. The leaders hurried about
asking that the mill be cleared out, and
while they talked the great crowd rushed
madly against the high board fence inclos
ing the mill and carried it before them
Then the crowd howling like a band of
Indians, rushed through the several de
partments of the roil), destroying the pro
visions supplied for those who had been
working, breaking up the cooking utensil*
provided for them by the company and
driving the frightened workman ahead of
them into the streets. When the work
men appeared in sight they were set upon
and beaten by the infuriated mob on the
outside.
About a do*en of the workmen when
driven trom their shelter harried to the
river and rowed themselves in a skiff to
the other side Their effort to escape wan
noticed by the strikers, and almost instant
ly a skiffload of strikers was hurrying in
pursuit. Another, and still another crowd
of tho strikers hurried alter the escaping
workmen, who toon disappeared over the
bill on the opposite side. The strikers fol
lowed, however, and at 10 o'clock at night
neither the pursued or the pursuers had
bad been beard from. The mill manage
ment feared to follow their men, and tbr
strikers were content in the belief that
their people would not suffer should the
workmen be overtaken. It was nearly 7
o'clock in the evening when the most
serious outbreak occurred. At that time
several thousand men had gathered in the
neighborhood of the Baltimore and Ohio
station. They were flushed with the suc
cessful raid on the mill. Tboy bad dem
onstrated that the police were powerless,
and they seemed unnaturally reckless
Two of the workmen, who had escaped
their fury in the mill raid were seen in the
distance. "Tflere they come," folly a
thousand strikers shouted in chorus. The
workmen were surrounded and every
striker in the gathering joined in the at
tack upon the helpless and hapless fel
lows.
The two men were knocken down a doz
en times. They were beaten with clubs,
and both were compelled to crawl on their
hands and knees across the principal street
of the place. The entire police torce of
the place attempted to interfere in behall
of the unfortunates, but the officers were
driven back as though they were children
Two of them were clubbed rather severely,
and were ordered to the hospital. They
refused to go, however, and continued ou
duty throughout the night.
All day, Wednesday, McKeesport was
in possession of a mob, and the thirty po
lice were powerless. By 9 A. M. the
crowd at the B. <t 0. depot numbered sev
eral thousand. A report that the old
slack piles across the river were being dug
up and shipped to the works caused a
crowd to cross the river, burn the tipples,
and set fire to the slack piles. Another
crowd of about 2,000 went to Duquesne
and closed down the tube works there.

The Only Remedy.
So many persons being unemployed and
in a state of unrest, while not likely to
lead to anything serious, is evidence there
is something radically wrong somewhere,
and people naturally inquire the canse and
want to know the remedy. The man in
terested in the production of silver, says
•the course of tne Government with regard
to the white metal is the cause, and the
remedy is the free and unlimited coinage
of silver, this is the panacea that will cure
all our financial ills.'' The wild-eyed,
shock-haired populist says "the remedy for
all our ills is to elect populists to Congress
and elsewhere and they will find a remedy;
everybody will be employed by the Gov
ernment, money will be groun d out by the
printing press as the necessities of the peo
ple require and all will go merily on to the
plenty and prosperity they dream about.
The well meaning but very impractica
ble prohibitionist comes to the front with
his little platform and says "all yon have
to do is join the prohibition party, vote
our ticket, we will carry the day, then
everybody will be good, the old Adam will
be taken out of people, they will not be
hunting the forbibben fruit any more, and
a veritable millenium will follow if you
will only vote our ticket," and so it goes
round among those who have a hohby to
ride, and ride it day in and day out as locg
as they get people to listen, and the col
lections are as liberal as the meetings. But
to the average, moderate, thinking, level
headed part of the people, none of these
things are satisfactory, either to the eau.-e
or the remedy. The cause is back of all
this, and once that is found the people find
the remedy. .
The records of our country show that in
the rear 1892 there was more general ac
tivity from one end of the country to the
other in business circles than in any previ
ous year of our history. The volumn of
business done in the country was never as
great as in the year 1892. The wage
earners of the country of all classes were
never as fully employed as in 189*-, nf.r
was there ever a year in our history during
which the wages earned would buy as
many necessities and luxuries of life
1892 This being the condition of art airs
in that year, what has brought about such
a sudden and radical change in the busi
ness world, and canned such want and pri
vation to be abroad in the land in so short
a time after such a state of prosperity ! We
think to any reasonable, unprejudiced per
son the cause is not hard to fina,, an " 1116
remedy is easily applied. This is a gov
ernment of the people; we form a part of it
and as we apply either one or another pol
icy to managing the affairs of the countrj,
so we have prosperity or adversity as we
choose in oar elections.
For thirty odd years the people made
choice of and were controlled by the policy
advocated by the Republican party, with
changes from time to time as experience
indicated; the last change embodied in the
legislation known as the "McKinley Bill
which was the cause that led to the gener
al prosperity of 1892. In that year the
Republican party, with its candidates,
past history, and platform for the future
was before the people for their decision in
the fall election. The Democratic party
with its promises and candidates was be
fore the people asking to be entrusted
with their affairs. (The little impracuca
ble, jisionary, side showß, as populist,
people's party, etc., etc., we take not into
account as they cut no figure only as they
contributed to the success of the Demo
cratic party and are to that extent respon
sible for the times we have.) The claims
of the two parties are laid before the peo
ple, and when the election takes place anil
the results are counted up we find the
wage earners of the manufacturing btates
of Connecticut, New York, New Jersey.
Illinois and some other localities conclud
ed they would have a change, and voted
the well tried policy of the Republican
party down and in favor of the Democrat
ic party. This was the decision made by
the people and if it has not "panned out
to their liking those who voted for the
change are to olame and no others. The
whole ground was canvassed before the
people in the campaign, tney were inform
ed by Republican newspapers and orators
what the result would be if they voted the
Democratic party into power.
In the face of this warning the people
made the choice they did, and we are now
having the fruits of "glorious Democratic
victory."
The condition of affairs we now have
was to be expected alter the majority vot
ed as they did. It ii but the legitimate
result of the people determining to try the
Democratic policy, which isun American in
every way, just the policy England and
other European countries want to have in
force in this country so they can reap the
benefits of our trade, and having made the
choice they did in 1892; all we can do is to
try it awhile, and after having tried it. it
the people don't like it they can make the
change they desire, an provided by lawn
made by ourselves, when tie time comes
to make choice of a policy for another four
years. There is no use railing away at
Cleveland, he is but the representative of
his party, neither better nor worse, but a
fair representative in every way of the
men behind him, they are in the majority,
have the responsibilitv, and will do as they
think best in conducting the affairs of the
people. But what a pretty mess they are
making of it. During the Republican con
trol business all over the country
was good, the revenues of the government
ample to pay all running expetices and ap
ply the surplus to paying off the debt and
cancelling the obligations of the nation,
and in ten years more,bad the people been
wise in the election of 1892, the debt would
have been reduced to a mere nothing; the
balance or trade has been so largely in our I
favor, which balance had to be paid by
loreign countries in gold, thereby swelling
the "gold reserve" our treasury from year
to year, and gold would have become
so plenty that the relation between gold
and silver would have equalized iUell and
we would have had no "silver question"
for demagogues to make so much ado l
about, Our trade would have gone on in
creasing with foreign countries, and cities
and towns and country would have kept on
growing and improving, with employment
and business for every man, woman and
child that was industrious and willing to
do something, the stream of business would
have flown on smoothly with plenty for
everybody as long as they remained wise
and looked after American interests. The
United States would become the manufac
turing and commercial nation of the
world, New York City would have out
Mtriped London and become the financial
center of the world, and our gold mines,
our silver mines, our industries of all kinds
would have been under friendly control,
would have gone on prospering and to
prosper with contentment and happiness
all over the land. But alas for all this!
The people were not wise, "like the frogs
in the fable they wer« not satisfied with
well enough, so choose a stork for a king
that as soon as chosen devoured the frogs
except a few that escaped." The people
in 1892 decided to turn the management of
affairs over to the Democratic party for
four years. That Democratic policy is but
the re-echo of what foreign manufacturers,
foreign merchants, foreign importers,
foreign bankers, foreign agents generally
want done in this country. Us policy is
unAmerican, against the interests of our
people in every walk of life, and in favor
of foreigners generally. All the hundreds
of thousands out of employment, anxious
to work and can't get work to do. anil
those who are working at reduced wages,
are in this condition by reason of theadop
lion by the people at the last election ot
this foreign policy advocated by the Dem
ocratic party; it has been so in the past
every time it has been tried and will be in
the future as long as it lasts, for like causes
always produce like effects.
This being our condition the remedy is
with the people themselves, they have it
all in their own hands and can apply the
remedy when the time comes. It cannot
be done by abusing Cleveland or Congress
or our Courts, or our manufacturers who
have shut down their works, or our coal
operators who have been obliged to reduce
expenses to keep going at all. "We, the
people," have made law.* by which we are
governed, under these lawi we must ope
rate We will have to do the best we can
until the time fixed by law arrives for the
people to decide under which policy they
will live from that on, if they like the pres
ent condition of affairs, the majority will
HO decide at the ballot box, if the people
are not satisfied they can vote Cleveland,
bis Democratic party and his foreign poli
cy out, and vote Win. McKinley, the Re
publican party and its American policy in
for the next fonr years to come. If the
people so decide then business of the coun
try will begin to revive, the future can be
counted on, the waste made by the Demo
cratic policy will begin to be cleared away,
prosperity will begin to return, those out
of employment will find it, money will be
gin to flow in the channels of business and
prosperity and peace will again bless our
land from one end to the other and all be
cause the peple have acted for their best
Interests by voting down the Democratic
foreign policy and voting to reinstate the
Republican American policy, under which
the country grew aud prospered so long
and so well. Will they do it, is the ques
tion for them to deoide when the lime
comes for them to declare their desires in
the way provided by the laws "we the
people" have madet
This nonsense of demanding the govern
ment must provide work for everybody out
of work ana food for everybody without
food, clothes for everybody without clothe*,
etc., etc., we see so much about in certain
newspapers, and hear from certain classes
of orators, won't do in this country. These
ideas are brought over the ocean by people
who have lived under King* s , Queens and
Emperor*. where they surrendered their
manhood and depended on the govern
ment—the Kings, Queens, Emperors or
their laesey —for employment of all kinds:
and the sooner these people abandon these
relics of monarchies, assert their manhood,
become imbued with oar independent
American ideas, i.e. everyone look out for
and depend on himself, study our American
plan and form of government so they can
act and vote intelligently, and become
truly American, the better it will be for
themselves and all the people of the land
The lesson now being learned will be a
good one if the people only profit by the
experience, and that they will is the opini

Lawrence County Women.
The Lawrence county W .C. T. U. women
are showing their hantf in po'itical matters
as well as in their light against the saloons
At a convention held last week at Herman
church, Slippery Book township, they
adopted resolutions in which they do
nounced corruption in politics in language
as follows: "It is a well-known fact that
both money and liquor were used in largo
qualities for procuring votes in the last
primary election for judge of Lawrence
couuty's court of justice. We view
with alarm and denounce in unsparing
terms the widespread debauchery ami
corruption of votes in Lawrence county by
unscrupulous candidates, that they in ly
secure a nomination tbat is made by bal
lots cast by hands unsteadied by the curse
of rum and sullied by their thrice accursed
gold."
The Indie* also .nude a direct strike at
Ihe fainons Breckenridge-Pollard and
Hartshornu itobin»on case by this resolu
tion. Recent evils have occured in our
country where women have been the vie
tiins of men in high position. The Wo
man 's Christian Temperance Union of
Lawrcnua county therefore declares its
belief that ona standard of morality is
equally binding upon man and women and
that which debars one from social life
should also bar the other. We strictly
adhere to the motto of our organization,
"A white ife for two."

judge Wier had been in bad health for
some time past and his death was therefore
not unexpected. During all his life he had
been an active man in business, taking an
especial interest in farming. He filled the
office of Associate Judge in this county for
a term of five years, being the last one
elected. His term expired in January 1886.
He was a useful citizen, taking a part in
all public affairs and will be greatly missed
in his neighborhood and by the people of
this county generally. A number of his
Butler friends attended his funeral at
Freeport on Monday last
PASSAVANT—At his honiein Pittsburg.
Sunday night. June 3, 1894, Kev. Wui.
A. Passavant, aged 72 years, 7 months
and 24 days.
Xnmerous have been the shocks lately
received by our people from the deaths of
citizens and friends. And now there is
peculiar sadness in recording the departure
of one truly good and great, born in our
county and known to many of us. But
yesterday as it were I)r. Passavant stood
among our people in the church here in
which the luneral services over the re
mains ol Kev. Knoch Smith were being
held. His remarks on that occasion, May
25. were his last public utterances. We
recall his words and appearance then with
mingled feelings of respect and sadness.
On going back to his home he was confined
to his room and summoned from life within
ten days of an eloquent tribute to a dead
friend. All this but again reminds us of
the uncertainty of life, and that death
knocks at the door of all.
The life of William A. Passavant w II a
lite of good works. Humanity had no
greater friend. The ruling thought of bis
nature was to aid the weak and unfortu
nate. He was the lounder of the first
Protestant home for orphans in or around
tho now great city of Pittsburg. This was
known as Passavant's Infirmary. Soon
after, about 1850, he founded the present
Orphans Farm School for little boys at
Zeiienople, and one for little orphan girls
at Rochester. IS«nver county. Tnen fol
lowed benevolent institutions, hospitals
aud training schools at Milwaukee, Chicago
and other points in the west. The new
Lutheran Theological Seminary at Chicago
is his last great institution. Thiel College
at Greenville, 1870, owes much of its exist
ence to him. He was often heard to say
that be started out in some of these pro
jects without a dollar in hand and without
knowing where the money was to come
from. Hut bis zeal, his piety, his charita
ble and unselfish nature attracted to uirn
and raised up friends equal to every emer
gency. Asa preacher and speaker he was
an orator of rare power and ability, and bis
personal bearing charmed all by his mod
esty and sincerity.
Kev. Passavant was born and raised in
Zelienople, where be was buried on Wed
nesday, funeral services being fin-t
held at his home in Pittsburg. He leaves
a widow and seven children surviving him.
A brother, Sidney Hassayant resides at the
old home in Zelienople. His remains were
followed from Pittsburg to their last rest
ing place by a number ol his brother
ministers in the church bo loved so well
and did so much to build up. and by a
large number of relatives, friend* and ad
mirers, desirous to pay this last tribute to
his memory.
