After all the suffering, misery ami j loss inflicted on lahor hv the strikes j <">f th> past few years, is it not time for the laborer ami the mechanie to pause ami ask himself if the abortive methods of organized labor, with its tyrannical edits and its arbitrary eon- 1 trol, hart? not inflicted on him more absoluie suffering and misery than it j luis over conferred on him benefit more misery than he ever experiennce from the oppression of united capital? Never before in the his torv 1okk1v ruin y f j eel. And now lot us soo how it fared with Mr. Gould, whom the strikers intended to punish and destroy The first news of the strike sent Missouri Pacific from 115 down to U7; the strikers were wild with delight. Did this dismay Mr. Gould? Not a hit he went into the contest, with the most powerful labor comhinntirn that this country has seen, practically single-handed and alone. He had to confront the combined power of all the labor organizations in the land and the bitter prejudices of many of his own class. He emerged from the conflict without a scar and as the acknowledged champion of order and law, the defender of vested rights, a stronger man and a richer man, with a firmer hold on all of his properties than he ever had boforc since he entered on public life. What did it do for labor? Every man injured by the strike was a poor man, AVAPV m U?? *????? I?mi nniliu mm il |HJ()r (llill), ovory inan thrown out of employ* inent was a poor man, every family that Buffered in consequence of the strike was a poor man's family. All this suffering was in consequence of the |>oo?* man's acts. Verify, verilv, I i / S v ^ J mm * 1 1 ^ "r Agru^ulturHl. lur hi* i poverty was the victim there. Phe *: poor man tk the stripes aiul suffering, capital escaped unharmed. < I.OSSKS TO I.A '{OK Tito loss to labor hv tlic strikes of the past few years oan only bo computed by hundreds of miliums of dol- '' iars, ami v?f this enormous su.ii,everv dollar has been contributed bv labor ^ ami not one eont has been eontri- j ? buted by capital. If the hundreds <>i" millions lost had boon invested in ' homes for the laboring men, would j not their condition have been better ed? Last spring there was a great | labor demonstration tu the eitv "I (| New York. Twenty-five thousand ? men inarched ii. procession; the 111:1joritv of these men represented skill-I ed labor, and it is safe tosav that the labor of these twenty thousand tuoti 1 j for that dnv represented *,IHM ; thore were tiftv bands of mnsie at $100 $5,000; transportation, ban-I tiers and incidentals, $10,000. The nfternoon wos given to festivity and | feasting. All of the up-town parks ! were crowded till late at nif men might have got their goods at a reduction of nearly one half. Labor lost it; capital did not give a dollar, nor did the ; menace to capital avail them to the! value of a single mill. If capital | had attempted to take from labor in a single day $100,000, what a how! would have gone up about tic tyran iiv of canital. Is it not time then to 1 cry a halt? Are not the exactions and taxes of organized labor more 'onerous and more bundeusome than they have ever experienced from capital? If not on a strike yourself, you are liable to be taxed to support a I j lot of men with whom you have frequently neither sympathy or allilt.i-j tion. The poor laboring man in | ! New York is taxed to-dav to sup- I I port the Jersey coal strikers who are the cause of all his misery and sufTer' iug in this bitter winter time. To every thinking man there is some! thing radically wrong in the effort of organized labor to make the unskilled drone the equal of the skillfuld ! mechanic, or in other words, to reduce all men to a coimnou level, whore genius, industry and skill shall have no weight in solving the j>rol>loni of : lifo. It is safe to sav, and I here appeal to whatever worUingm in knows, that ' there has not keen as nnieh su (Torinoin the ranks of lalior in the memory i of living men as there has licen in the oast two years, and these two years represent the host efforts and results and blessings of united labor; 1 and, furthermore, united labor has inflicted more suffering and mi;-er\ i on the laboring man and the nieclianie, and exercised a more arbitrary 1 * I control over his liberties, than eapital ever dared attempt in the most , oppressive exercise of its power. It has subverted the lirst principles of human freedom in this land, and made the laborer more of a slave than the Southern negro was before the war. It has denied the right of a i free man to his own labor; it has j hedged him in with laws more arbitrary and pitiless than the laws of I )raco. The walking delegate is a new in?, n stitution in America, and no more ingenous to American soil than boy-| I colt. Tito boycott is-: it two-edoed j sword, it cuts both ways, and ilto j men .vho seek to invoke that barba, rous power innst not be surprised if the boycott is met with its natural offset, the black list. The mechanic and the laborer refuse to be coerced l y the employer; by what system of reasoning, then, if the workmen refuse to ho coerced by the employer, can one workinomau claim the rijjdit to coerce another; workin^mau? The most that thej employer does is to refuse to pay a certain rate of wa?res or to accede to certain hours of labor; the man is free to reject or accept the terms of- : fered or to carry his labor ton higher bidder. lie doos not and dare not attempt to force his decrees by personal violence on his employee; yet if the laborer or the mechanic differs from his follows-as to what is best for him and his family, lie does so somej times at the peril of his life. What kind of a Government is that which allows a man who obeys the law to be driven from his work because he is weak and poor? With a, mass of labor unions it is simply a question of force. A man has a perfect rioht to refuse to work, but there his rii/ht ends. Ho has no rijjdit to deny to any other man the same rights that ho claims for himself. The substitution of brute force for reason, is like the substitution of the ('ourt of .ludoe Lynch for the regular forms of law; and brute force is and always . I ? ?

"Marine blue" is rightly termed a seasonable color. A Marylane justice decides that a | liusbaud is liable for his wife's slander. Where there is a will there is a way to break it. A bent pin can" pull very much, but, Circa t Scott! how it can push. 1 The "power of the press" is best felt by him who gets his lingers j in its mechanism. To keep apples from rotting, eat 1 tin in up, is the gratuitous adv ice of j <>no of our a^ncultural exchanges. In a recent sermon llonrv Ward Heeoher said: ''I Imvo no sympathy \\ ith ri ?dit-hour inon who have fourteen-hour wives."
