SEVERAL prominent politicians nro
already having tholr measure taken
for Valentino's shoos. Three times
and out is what they think.
Entcrpriilng pipers will now keep
a "dynnmlto" heading standing in all
editions. It la an unusually cold day
when some plot to blow up a mon
aroh or a government building falls to
como through the Atlantic cablo.

chasing the Apaches , and the Indiana
are hiding in the mountains and enjoying -
joying the fan. The cainalltits 10 fur
have been a dozen or BO soldlciii killed
and ono Ohihcanhan captured , | with
the Apaches still on the war path.
As a matter of conrteay , If for no
.other rcwOD , it would boa good thing
if the council , acting aa a board tf
cauvaiiera , would rcoount the ballots
out at the late city election. There
baa been inch outrageous bungling In
every ward that it would cot bo sur
prising If the reaultwero merely a
rough guess.
OIIARLKT FOSTER Is all brokonp over
his failure to secure the postmaster
qeneralshlp , He saya ho doesn't c ro
a straw about it personally , but that it
means the Iota of Ohio to the repub >
llcana in the next proiidential elec
tion. The republican party must bo
in a bad way in Ohio , if ita only salva
tion ia a cabinet position for Charley
Foster. _ _ _ _ _
BOITOH is to bo enlightened on the
Indian question by one Mr. Herbert
Welsh. It is easier to face a Boston
audience loaded with baked beans
than a gatbeiiog of Apaches equipped
with breech loading * riftaa and minle
ball oatrldgei in an Arizona canyon.
Mr. Welih is treating the Indian
question from a aafa distance and
General Orook can afford to envy hli
method of dealing with the savages ,
THBBB need be no apprehension on
one point in the matter of paving ,
Although the petition of property
owners does not limit the rate at
which paving shall be done , the board
of public works and city council al
ways reserve the right to j eot any and
all bids. Of conne there can be no com
petition on sheet asphalt because the
importation of pure Trinidad asphalt
is controlled by Uubsr & On. But II
Barber and company attempt to exact
an exorbitant price for their pavement
their bid will be rejected and othoi
materials will bo used.

RENEWED X.ABOR TROUBLES.
Strlkoi are 'beginning in several
ilacon in the country and there are
ndlcatlons of the renewal of wide-
prcad labor troubles , Sotno of the
Ispntos have arisen fiom a refusal of
mployors to advaccu wages , and
thers from the rcfural of employes
o accept the reduction insisted upon
> y their employers.
In many Instances strikes nro In-
vltable. They are often purposely
irovokod by capitalists who TtUh to
hut down tholr works until they ex >
must tholr surplus stock , and who ex >
itodissalltfaation in erdrr to curtail
production , But nioro often they are
ho resnlt of a misunderstanding bo-
ween the contracting parties and
might bo avoided by mutual com-
iromtso and conceailons ,
All oxporlonoo has shown that a
ttiko on a falling market never pays.
Vhon prices are drooping employers
ro only too glad to shut down tholr
works and wait for better times. A
ttiko plays directly into tholr hands ,
'redaction is curtailed , the market ia
ollovcd and after several months it is
aiy to make a little compromise , lethe
ho mon again at work and count up
ho profits ,
Of course it must ba understood
hat employers rarely increase wages
nn'esa asked and every workingman -
man has the right not only to demand
uoh an increase but to wlthold his Ia <
> or if it Is not granted. On a rlsin p
market the chances are that the em
ployer will find it to his own Interest
o grant the increase. If not a strike
may bring him to terms ,
Just at the present time any ox-
enalve labor troubles will certainly
iffeot worklngmon more unfavorably
ban their employers. All the markets
are weak and drooping. There Is s
general tendency towards economy In
expenditure , and a consequent ten
dency towards economy In production.
This Is ospcoUlly thofoMO with oni
argoat industries. Tae beat informed
authorities , and among them some ol
ho most prominent members of the
Knights of Labor , agree that strlkei
at the present time will bo Injndloloui
, nd unseasonable.
There is ono photo ot the laboi
qaeitlon which ban not baengenorallj
tonslderod , and that Is the
endenoy of injudicious strikes
o build up industrial monopo
les. By closing up small anc
weak factions they conoentrato cap
tal antf power over labor in fe.v
lands and narrow circles that can be
more easily combined and bronghl
into conceit to defeat possible move
mots on the part of laborers.
The only remedy against the evlli
of strikes for whether they sncceec
or fall they are always aooompanlec
by distress is the establishment o :
greater confidence between employer !
and employed. What the Unitec
States needs are boards of arbitratlot
t ir the settlement of disputes and thi
protection of our workinpmen. Ii
England they have been in active op
eratlon for more than ten years , ti
the mutual satisfaction of all con
oerned , Tnelr general establishmen
iere would , save the country at
nnnual wastage of hundreds of then
sands of dollars ,
TUB temperance question is to b <
Fought over again in Ohio this year
and the fall campaign will once mon
bo distracted by the Issue. T.w <
amendments will bo submitted .to thi
voters of the states , as follows :
"First The general assembly shal
regulate the traflb in intoztcatlnj
liquors so as to provide against evili
resulting therefrom ; snd is power t <
lo y taxes or aiaossmonts thereon , I
cot limited by any provision of thi
constitution. .
Sicond The mannfaotnro ot am
the trailio in intoxicating Minors to bi
ised as a beverage are forever pro
hiblted , and the general atsemll
shall provide by law for the enforce
ment of this ptovlslon. "
These amendments have passed thi
legislature by nearly a party vote , 1
third amendment pauod the sonat
and may possibly also bo submltte
to the people :
"Third Thb general assembly ma
provide by law f > r licensing the traftl
in intoxicating liquors. "
It will bo seen that the voters I
Ohio will bo given a scope of choio
which ought to satisfy the moit ca
aotlnp. Under the present oonstltc
tlon the liquor tnffio cannot b
licensed. Too tidal wave of last fa
was largely duo to the forcing of th
temperance lesuo by the ropnbllcat
of the state , and it seems very probi
bio that the renewed agitation wi
again help the democracy and pav
the way for democratic success 1
'
1884.
MOUB than a year ago , a syndlcat
of Chicago capitalist ! , headed by Job
Y. Frwell , aoaarod from the Tun
legislature n grant of 3.0CO (03 acrei
or about 0,000 tqnaro miles of tti
most fertile lands In the state. 11
consideration promised for this mi (
ulfijont etnplro was the erection of
shto honso which it was agree
should not cost lots than a millie
and a half of dollars. At the time <
the grant , ugly suspicions wet
whispered around the capital. ]
was' publicly charged that the Ian
was worth folly $1CO an aero at th
least estimate , and that corrupt it
finances were nsed in the leglslatut
to secure the passage of the act.
How enormous the job was is noi
at last knows. The syndloite lai
week succeeded ia selling thiir pro.
porty to sn English company for a
consideration which represents its
present actual value at $10,000,000.
In other words Mr. Far well and his
follow capitalists have pockotcd tight
and a half millions from their venture
ttrolvo months after scouring a title to
their property and the state has been
shamefully swindled to that extent.
There Is to bo an Investigation , but
no investigation will replace the pil
fered millions In the state treasury
The St. Louis 1'oit Dupaldi says that
the "transaction irresistibly recalls
the fimous 'Yazao land steal" in the
early history of oar country , when the
legislature of Georgia Bold the best
part of what is now Alabama and Mis
sissippi for a oonplo of hnndrcd thou
sand dollar. ) . There was snob a storm
of indignation that an Investigation
could not bo avoided , and it showed
that every member of the legislature
who voted fos the bill hid a share In
the steal. " It will bo very surprising
If the Inevitable investigation of this
case does not show that the modern
statesmen of Texas nro worthy of
their political ancestors of Georgia.
DAKOTA'S DEPARTURE
Dakota is all in n farmont over the
now capital. The commissioners stole
a march on the people of Yankton the
other day by arriving at the capital
before daylight In a sleeping car and
skipping out before an Injunction
could bo served on them. Under the
sot creating the commission they had
to first moot at the capital and organ
ize. Tals was done between two days
and is to all Intents and purposes jest
as legal aa If they had mot at high
twelve. The Yanktonlans were fran *
lo with rage and they danced a scalp
dance with brandished tomahawks ,
indignation meetings were called and
icld not only in Yankton but In a hall
lozan rlvor counties , Throats are
made igilnst the governor and the
cglslatnro and ibcro Is the devil to
play generally. Tire days ago the
Dakota commission landed in Sioux
3lty out of harm's reach
and after mature deliberation they
isvo decided to advortiio for pro
posals for a capital location. They
Imlt the location to some slto on
the 40 ' .h parallel which.IE . centra
Detwoon the north and south boun
daries of the present territory of Da
cota. Under the act , not leas than
$100,000 la to be accepted as a bo
nus for the capital location , but
there will bo no trouble In getting
treble that amount. As our frienc
Tom Kennnrd would say , "Thoro'c
millions ia It. "
The commissioners do not feel at
all frightened at the threatened In
junctions ,
They say that Jhls is to be a fair and
square deal in the interests of the
whole territory of Dakota and not ol
any particular locality. To an out
slder it would seem as If the roloca
tlon would be timely and eminent ) ]
proper. Dakota has 140.000 rquan
miles and in point of area Is nearly at
largo as California , which nexl
to Texas Is the largest polit
leal division In the United States
The population at present ii
200,000 , and immigration is pourlnf
In at the rate of from 5,000 to 10,00 (
a wetk. The present capital Is on thi
southern boundary of the territory ,
[ ally 200 miles from the centroand ovci
400 miles from the Black Hills conn
ties. The relocation will develop thi
railroad system and means an carl ]
admission of undivided Dakota lnt <
Iho Union. There may bo , and proba
bly will bo , a good deal of land specu
latlon , and perhaps jobbery , conneotcc
with the change of capital
but the entire territory , out
aldo of Yankton and the immedlati
neighborhood admits the benefit whlcl
must result from the new departure
John Sherman will probably start a
