THEOBE of Kentucky, ' who stumped Luzerne County against j J Hon. John Lyncli in 1888, was ap j , pointed to a si(ioo clerkship at Wash- j ington this week. This is the ill j gotten reward an alleged Knight of ' Labor receives for his treachery. SPEAKER REED of the house of repre- J sentatives has appointed Congress- , man Osborne as a member of the committee on labor for this session of Congress. All bills pertaining to labor will, no doubt, receive very 1 little consideration from a man who 1 threatened to give workingmen bullets durinir Die s+-'' 77. eland, in addi l-fashioned as I ch they now —ua afflicted with .uc grip" of epidemic influenza which lias been causing so much sneezing j and lamentation in Europe and some parts of America, the market for pocket handkerchiefs nnd quinine is ! likely to he brisk for the next few j weeks. LAST week the miners of the Read ing Company were notified that two- j thirds time would prevail until further notice. Now, according to every day Republican logic and reasoning, why ! not put the elixir of life into this in dustry by placing 40 or 50 per cent, duty on anthracite coal. They claim ! that every other trade is benefitted i by a tariff and why is the miner j slighted ? WE came very near having two 1 clear days in succession. On Satur day the weather was exceptionally fine, and Sunday there was a delight fully clear atmosphere in the after noon, but the morning was misty nnd damp. The year of storms will soon be over, however, and possibly 1800 may have f one better weather to offer than that to which we have become accustomed. HENRY W. GRADY, editor of the Atlanta Constitution, a most eloquent orator and brilliant journalist, died at Atlanta on Monday. He was the recognized leader of the New South and with voice and pen labored inces santly for the advancement of its people. All conceded to him a great future, and to be enlled away so sud denly at the ago of 38 was a surprise to the nation. A DESPERATE attempt is being made by Calvin S. Brice to buy, from the Ohio legislature, a seat in the United I States senate. The only claim that entitles him to become a member of that once honored institution is the fact that he is a railroad magnate, 1 millionaire nnd monopolist. The Democratic press of the country, , headed by the N~. World, is fight ing him tooth and nail, and his chances of joining the American Plu tocratic Club are growing beautifully less. WHAT is needed just now is a big, full-grown blizzard. If the weather continues warm the effect will he a j dull coal trade and a repetition of the past year, the worst that has been felt j for many years. If the approach of the gulf stream towards the Atlantic ; coast is in any manner responsible | for such a state of affairs, and is likely to continue to interrupt trade, it wiil i he necessary to reorganize business j generally on an entirely new basis, j Let us hope the beginning of the new year w ill inaugurate a change for the better. That's What's Eating the Furmcr. The Faston Express says that the I sheriff of Northampton County sold ' eleven properties on Saturday, seven I being farms and the rest business con- , cerns and smaller properties. The j sheriff of Lehigh County sold out five : farmers last week and will sell out a number more this week. In other coun-! ties farmers are equally unfortunate. I The fact that two-thirds of the number sold out by the sheriff are farmers is not ' accident. There is a cause for it all, ; which produces results as naturally as night follows day. That the farmers are suffering an unjust discrimination that the law makes against them is I apparent from tin; fact that they are not doing well now when the iron and other industries are picking up. What the | farmer needs is cheaper clothing, cheap- j er implements and cheaper necessaries ! of life; besides these taxes, he pays too j high a tax on bis farm, which is over- I valued both in the real estate market j and by the assessor, A farmer pays j more tax in proportion to bis net income ! than does anybody else. And yet the farmer is always the last ' person to enlist in any reform move- ' ment, even when it is bound to benefit' him. But it must be said to his credit' that when he does make a start he sel dom stops till he gets there. If the Express can succeed in opening the farmer's eyes to this great injustice of unnecessary taxation we will be pre pared for a new era of all-around pros- Beware or tlio Policy of Corniest. In a recent speech in the West Gen eral Sherman said that he should prob -1 ably never make another public address. | But he was mistaken, for he made a speech—and a very good one, too—on I Friday at the New York Chamber of | Commerce reception to the Pan-Ameri can delegates. It was notable for this reason, that, though a soldier by profes sion, he argued against further extension of the territory of the United States. While much is being said nowadays, in the press and by public men, about the annexation of Canada, the purchase of Cuba, and the raising of the American flag in some of the islands of the Pacific Ocean, and while some are dreaming of the possibility of the United States ex tending over the entire continent of North America, it is interesting to listen to this man of wiyr speaking words of peace, and inyeiglung against all ideas of conquest. "This country," he said, "needs no more territory. I think 42 states is about all one nation can take care of." lie spoke of Canada and Meixco as countries which must "work out their own salvation." General Sherman is right. Canada and Mexico have the example of the United States before them if they wish to improve, as nations. This subject of the annexation of Canada, the purchase of Cuba, and the dreams of some who would have a a grand amalgamation of American coun tries, it may be noticed, eminatc almost wholly from Republicans—that is, from I men who are Republicans because they believe in the teachings and the ten j dency of that party, which has always ! been and always will be drifting towards : a centralization of power. History j teaches that upon this very rock great ! nations have already perished, and bis | tory will repeat itself to the sorrow of the United States of America if this I policy of conquest is carried out. There is no necessity for even the consideration I of the scheme and the United States I would have nothing to gain and all to lose if the experiment might be tried. General Sherman's speech should be digested by those aspiring statesmen who are endeavoring to head this great annexation movement. This nation, while having a written constitution, also lias traditions which have the force of law, and one of these traditions is that we enter into "no entangling alliances | with other countries." Better Off Without Theili. I From all accounts there are several j "fake" industries locating in different parts of the state, their sole object being i to squeeze money out of the citizens of the place where they put up their tent, and then skip to ply their operations somewhere else. One of these is the Acme hosiery mill, which came to Ilazle ton a few months ago from Schuylkill Haven, the management receiving S2SOQ from the people of our neighboring bor , ougli, to pay for machinery and the ex pense of moving. About a dozen girls were given employment, being com pelled to work free gratis until they learned the business, and the total amount of wages paid out in Ilazleton did not exceed $72. Such "industries" that employ none but female or child labor do nothing to assist in building up a town, but they do much to retard its advancement by ruining the health of I the operatives, and in many instances the morals. The Ilazleton concern has removed to White Haven, where it will begin operations in a short while. The former place has undoubtedly learned a lesson that will prove beneficial to it, and Freeland can also take warning at I the same time. All possible induce ments should be offered to industries to ( locate here, but they should be of a class that would reflect credit on the town and not prove a menace to it. Factories ! or mills that will give employment to skilled mechanics and common laborers i are the kind that are wanted, and then | the children may be kept at school and the young girls at home, away from the degrading tendency of the factory. .Austin forliin Denounced. In the October number of the North American Review Austin Corbin, president 'of the Philadelphia and Heading Kail | road Company, had an article on the j "Tyranny of Labor Organizations." Upon its appearance in print the Loco mot ire Fireman's Magazine immediately : began a series of articles, some of which we have republished, which are designed to show the cause that inspired such a j tirade of abuse and falsehood. The | Magazine takes this paragraph of Cor j bin's article and comments as follows: j With other good, bad and indifferent j ; importations of foreign products we have | j found ourselves within recent years to j have acquired a hody of professional j I labor agitators, which has been largely ! , reinforced by lazy imitators of domestic ! I growth. These, both foreign and do- 1 mestic, find it much more congenial to j ! their idle habits and tastes to assume j j the role of grand knights, grand masters : and walking delegates, with salaries : attached and expenses paid, than to earn ; an honest living by earnest work, as the : I genuine workman gladly does. The foregoing is ('orbin's most serious j arraignment of labor organizations. It is 1 upon this indictment that Corbin bases bis appeal for sympathy while he pur- ; sues his policy of plunder, and he is I I permitted to give his slander wide read- j I ing in the North American Review for the i purpose of obscuring the abominations i !of his rule; and just here it is worthy of remark that while he denounces oflicials i of labor organizations, "foreign" and , "domestic," as "professional agitators " ! lie employs Iluns, Dagoes and the riff ! raff of European slums for the purpose ! of degrading American workingmen by 1 reducing wages to a point that forever | confronts them with starvation ; compell ing them to live in hovels scarcely re moved from the dens of wild beasts, and to subsist upon food that a well-bred dog would refuse. Austin Corbin demands that there f shall be no agitators or agitation of labor - j topics, of Wage questions, throughout the - | anthracite coal regions. He wants stag | nation, degradation, slavery. He de- niands that his word shall he supreme; that when he takes snuff his 35,000 serfs shall sneeze; that when he waves his scepter his army of helots shall crawl; that when he orders Bonzano or any other catiff in his service to give a bugle blast his rag-tag and hob-tail peons, sunken-eyed, hollow-cheeked, skinny fingered convicts shall fall prostrate and worship anything beneath or above the sod he may dictate. And because labor organizations, inspired by self-respect, sentiments of liberty and independence, without which life is a continuous curse, protest against such tyranny, he turns upon them, and, because he has cash, utilizes the pages of the North American Review to empty the vials of his wrath upon them. Austin Corbin, whose rascality is vastly more phenomenal than his wealth, says "unagitated workmen do not pay dues;" that is, are not members of labor organizations. There is not a writer upon labor topics at all acquainted with the facts bearing directly upon wages who will deny that labor organizations have not been potent in advancing and maintaining wages. And the fact stands out as clear as a mountain peak that where labor organi zations do not exert an influence wages decline to any point an employer may demand. We state the rule and defy successful contradiction. C'orbin's statement that the "unagi tated workman does not pay dues" is worthy of a little investigation. Let it be understood that the "unagitated workman" does not belong to a labor organization, but is one of Corbin's serfs. We will assume that, if labor organi zations held sway in Corbin's territory, the country he has Russianized, wages would be advanced, say, 25 cents a day. We will assume if Corbin's men be longed to labor organizations their dues would amount to S2O each a year. We will assume that Corbin lias in his employ 35,000 men. If wages were advanced 25 cents a day for 300 working days in the year the men would be benefitted to the amount I of $2,025,000. If they paid dues to the amount of S2O each, annually, the sum total of dues would be $700,000. Ilence the net gain to the men in Cor i bin's employ, if tliey belonged to a labor I organization, would be $1,925,000. 1 Now, it is seen at a glance, why Corbin is opposed to labor organizations and labor agitators. By keeping things quiet where lie reigns and rules enables him annnally to pocket from the earnings of his serfs $1,925,000. If labor organizations had sway in his dominions this vast some of money would go into the pockets of workingmen in stead of into ttic pockets of Austin Cor bin. In this presentation of the case we have given the reasons for Austin Cor bin's opposition to labor organizations. Labor organizations touch his pocket book, therefore his soul. He is know n to be a venal villain, a cash-cursed czar, who, in" the case of Judas Iscariot, would have sold Christ for less than thirty | pieces of silver rather than have lost the ! j ° b " .1,. All Industrial Revival. There is a feeling abroad in this state that these are prosperous and propitious times. It is confined to no special class, and is shown forth especially in reports of industrial operations and in the columns of the interior newspaper press. —Phila. Pre**. llow welcome this important piece of news must he to the thousands of miners ;in Schuylkill and Northumberland | Counties, whose sole means of earning j their livelihood was cut off last week by the shutting down indefinitely of a large number of collieries, as told by an article on our first page. We would think that the feeling in that part of the state is that these are anything but "prosperous and propitious times." It savors much of mockery to tell people they are favored with an industrial revival when | stagnation prevails everywhere. This | revival is confined to 110 special class, j says the Pre**. We are positive it is I neither confined or known to the 0000 I soft coal miners in Allegheny County, ! who are 011 strike because their em ployers can't concede them half a cent a j bushel. Neither is it known to the coke workers of the Connellsville region who | threaten to cease work in a few weeks if their wages are not raised from 90 cents to $1.05 a ton. The 210,000 men of the i Wyoming and Lackawanna regions are j not aware that these are "prosperous and propitious times," or they would hardly be preparing to demand a 20 per cent, advance on February 1. And such it is with every class, with the probable ex - I 'ception of the iron workers, who are at the height of a little boom just now. J Instead of an industrial revival taking place the outlook for the winter is very, I very gloomy, and this statement can be verified by reading the news and flnan- ! cial columns of the Press. Those col umns give the lie almost daily to the platitudes and flowery editorials which the Press endeavors to have its r.eaders j believe. The reports of industrial oper ations and the columns of the interior 1 newspaper press tell something different from "prosperous and propitious times." 200,000 Copies of the "Journal." The Journal of the Knights of Labor will issue on January 2, 1890, a special edition of 200,000 copies.

Pow ! derly, Wright and Beaumont, represent ing the Knights of Labor; the response on behalf of the Farmers by "Stump" Ashby of Texas and the speech on the same occasion by General T Th Weaver.

Three weeks ago the Pliila. Press published two pages of dispatches from all the leading iron centres in Pennsyl vania, showing that that trade was never in belter condition and all engaged in it were enjoying unlimited prosperity. Ho far thnt was all right and we hope it was just as true as it read. But, like many others, the Press was not satisfied with this display of enterprise, and with a view of utilizing this transiest period of iron prosperity as a bolster for Ben Har rison and the Republican party, pub lished leading editorials for several days afterwards, calling attention to the in dustry and claiming that its flourishing condition was due to the great an 1 glo rious system of taxing ourselves. That kind of chaff has been given to the birds so often that they now refuse to be caught by it, and the Press must be in desperate straits for something to fall back upon when it can't invent an origin al canad. The same high tariff was in vogue last spring when the dispatches flew thick and fact from those same iron centres announcing reductions of 10, 15 and sometimes 25 per cent, in the wages of the employes. If we remember rightly the Press then was one of the first to assure the public that the tariff was in no way responsible for the reduc tion —the cause was over-production, under-consumption, or some other ingen ious tale was worked off to allay sus picion. But the moment the darkness is dispelled and trade again brightens up, then protection is lauded as the father of all happiness. The silence of Republican organs when reductions arc the order of the day is only equalled hy their present ludicrous applause since the Press gave the cue. They seem to regard their readers as Hottentots, anxious and willing to gulp down one story every spring and a revised version of the same in the fall. If such is the material protectionists are made of they have the sympathy of the Democratic l'nHy. _ <a > Tlie Inequality of Taxation. .Statistics show that since 1860 Federal taxation has increased sixfold, and almost the whole of this has been taken from the poorer elates. And, on the other hand, the profit to the wealthier classes, by the adjustment of individual taxarion to their interest, has increased nearly tenfold. Taxation takes from the rich some 3 to 10 per cent, of their annual savings, while owing largely to the inequalities of the tariff, it takes from the farmers and laboring classes from 70 to 80 per cent, of their annual savings. Such facts ought to be known, irrespective of the interferences either political party may draw from them.— Detroit Free Press. POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT, j UOII TAX COLLECTOK JOIIN MILLER, of Drifton.
