The Teamsters' strike in Chicago is practically lost, and nothing is to be gained by denying the fact. The odds were too great. Besides, the strike seems to have been mismanaged, if not ill-advised. ' President Shea made a gallant fight against tremendous odds, and while he has lost he has shown himself a splendid general. Early in the week he was thrown into jail on contempt charges, brought before Judge Kohlsatt, who seems bound to repay the sinister influences that secured his promotion to the fed eral bench. President Shea's impris onment seems to have been more the result of Sheriff Barrett's hasty tem per than anything else. He is in no danger of remaining in confinement long. The employers association is dis covering that it played with fire in instigating reports of rioting and bloodshed when little or nothing of the kind happened. The Chicago Pub lic, edited by Louis P. Post than whom no fairer or abler exponent of civic righteousness and fairness lives says of the employers' association and the exaggerated reports of trou ble: "Their newspapers called for Fed eral troops, called for them in 'scare' head lines, before any violence had been committed. They have called for them throughout the strike, al though the actual violence has done less damage to life and property than a Fourth of, July celebration. They are calling for them again, now that the strike is extending, although no violence has occurred, and nothing unusual is observable In the streets except policemen on wagons riding beside the drivers. Not only have they shouted for troops in season and out of season from the beginning, but they have tried to make occasion for troops. When they imported negro strike breakers from the south they did so because they hoped -and expected that the strikers would be excited to vio lence by the sight of negroes in their places. A race war is what they sought, and a race war is what they have almost given us. Their object has been to involve the city in state and federal complications, and thereby to demoralize public sentiment re garding Mayor Dunne and his traction policy, to such at extent as to baffle him In giving that policy effect" The strike would 'have been settled long ago and all trouble averted, had it not been for the arrogant attitude of the express companies. Some of these days Uncle Sam will go into the express business and then the ar rogant express company managers will have ample time to sit and bite their thumbs. The sooner the better. THE STROLLER. Some Observations Made on General Things by a Union Man. On Tenth and O there were some men standing and the following is the conversation I overheard between them: . "What's the difference between nude and naked?". One said he did not know. One said, "the excise board. One said, 'The city Improvement club, the same that kicked the poor bootblack's kit off the sidewalk." A new-comer spoke up and said: "You are evidently dis cussing some pictures in an O street book store window that I have just seen," and they answered In the afflrm itive. "J will answer your question by asking another: 'What would be the difference in our stripping off our clothing and running down O street and looking in this book store this Sunday morning, June 4th ? "What in the name of decency are the police force and excise board and other organizations that are supposed to look out for the morality of this peaceful city doing anyhow? I want to say that the man or woman that is responsible for those pictures being in that show window is worse than any prostitute that, ever walked the streets. Because a book store is sup posed to be a place where a child could go without being ashamed of it. "My advice is to every father and mother and everybody else that has decency enough left to have an hon est wish to go to heaven after they die to cut that particular book store from their visiting list,' and spread the knowledge of the character of the place." Having delivered 'the above the man walked on. "The conversation lagged, and I strolled down the street. I soon came up with a crowd taai was standing around one of the rare public institu tions of Lincoln, namely; a drinking fountain. The crowd were waiting their time to quench their thirst. Fi nally it dawned on the Intellect ot some of them that they would starve to death before they would all get a drink. It reminded me of a story about a grist mill in Kentucky where a certain tanner had the material for Johnnie-cake ground. Depositing his sacks of grains and while they were being ground he thought he would go and 'llcker' up some. When later he called, he asked the miller if his grain was ground. The miller answered 'No.' 'Shich-a-ell-of-a-mill, eat it fash er'm you can grine it.' The miller in a sarcastic tone asked him how long he could eat it. , "Till I starve to death, by gum.

Some laid the blame to the mayor, some said the excise board had turned it off to stimulate the saloon business, and some even laid it to the Commer cial Club, but one fellow spoke up and said: 'The Commercial Club is not to blame because they never drink wa ter." All this made me very hot and dry, so I went home and introduced myself to the pump handle in my own back yard. "THE STROLLER."
