THE STIUK13 AT PALI* RIVER.
The sirlko at Kail River has ended-
disastrously for thu strikers. They
havo lost about a million aud n'htilf
dollars la wages, besides having con-
► umod whatever cash thou- ofgau.sa-
tlona held in their treasure* For
eight weeks stone twenty-three thous
and operatives havo been thrown out
of euploymont, and these havo now
had to return to work at the reduced
seals of wages offered them iu the
first place. The lesson ot this efr.ko
1s the Icvsou that has been nUpbas.xed
over and over agata in the coutests
lie tween tabor anil capital. Tho o\w
ntives lu thla ease, after vainly pro-
loagiug the contest, have had to yield
to '.uu iueritabla, a .
Tills tpiest-on brings up' the oft-
ruooteil question ot settling these con
tests between labor and capital by bn
filtration. Labor has conetautly been
UeuuindxiR nrUtrat.on tu such eases.
Capital bos answered always that there
was uothjjg to arbitrate. The mass
of tho people, who are simply Inter
tested Id having some equitable settle
ment of the question, havo looked on.
cousr.oua that (hero could be but odd
result lu these contests, and yet hap.ng
that some way might bo opened for
th» proper solution ot thu problem, tt
seam* lo be one ot thoso questions
which cannot be settled by law. Labor
unquestionably baa iu rights, but cap
ital also has its rights. For tho law
to Interfere would necessarily put lim
itations upon tho rights of ono party
or thu other. Suppose, for instance,
them should be a law enacted requir
ing cep.tal to aTb.trato with labor. If
the board of arbitration legally con
stituted should decide the question
aga.utl capital, the owners of the
inilU iu such cases motht be unable to
openit their mills and pay the arbitrat
ed pr.ee to Ubor without deauncuou
to the.r iuvetunent. Suppose, on the
other baud, the board of arbitruticn
should dec.de against labor? In what
way could capital force labor to work
at jhe reduced prices, unless labor vol-
untar.Iy' decided to accept them? Bo
it seems that there eaa be no eyetem

they hare made an abundance of pro-
v.slons of all k.nds to supply lliclv ram
ifies and Umr farms, llut tho cotton
motley has been consumed in paying
for cost of producing tho cotton. They
have Miuply lost all the labor and time
devoted to cotton. This fact is itsetr
a m ot suggestive one to the farmers
of I h.s country.
llut wo tfid not start out to make
suggestions to our fnrmiug friends. Wo
simply desired to commend them most
heartily for meut.ug Utu.r obligations
so promptly. Many of them, we uro
told, are anticipating the.r papers—
many luivo paid them luug before they
were due. They deserve all praise.
No claw of men aro more deserving of

CONTRACT GIVEN OUT.
A Mobile Man Will Work on the Har
lem River.
AVawhlngton, Oct. 30.—The eontractjga
for *the dredging and Improving of tho^F
Harlem river. New, York, will bn
awarded <o Rlttenhhuse R. Moore of
Mobile, Ala., by the war department.
When proposals for doing the work
were opened the bid of Mr. Moore was
found to be considerably lower, th.-m
-those of his competitors, tho next low
est being that of a Now;York firm.
The engineer's office at New York,
after examnlng the -bids, forwarded
them to Col. Casey, -chief of engineers,
with the recommendation that (ho bid
of the New York.flrm be accepted. He
suggested that the bid of Mr. Moore
■was Informal because of two Irregu
larities. Col. Casey examined the bids
and Indors'd tho recommendation of
the New York engineer and sent the
papers to the secretary of war In this
shape.
Senator Pugh of Alabama heard of
the objection to the bid of Mr. Mooro
and saw Col. Casey about the matter.
Soon after the senator’s visit, Cel.
Casey reconsidered his action, struck
out bis approval of the New York
officer and returned the matter to the
secretary with the recommendation
that Mr. Moore be awarded the con
tract. This Is proba-by the first time
that a firm so far South has succeed
ed in securing such a large contract
in New York.
