Referring again to the picturesque term,
“ saddle-colored coon,7. which the Tkijs-
orapii applied to "Mr. Matthews of Albany,”
whom President Cleveland sppointed to a
*10,000 position in M’asbiDgton City over
the heads of thousands of honest, capable
and deserviDR white Democrat*, and to the
brilliant defense of the term this journal re
cently advanced, the .St. Louis Republican
says: . , ,
Tbl. belli ia defrsee wbleh smonats to an de
fence at all. we accept 1t seen epotpgjr eo fere. Mr.
Matthews Is c'ohcerued ybd so' f*r lie we hste any
thing to do with accepting it for him. Blit Air
offence con in'.tied wo* not so much against bln, a.

and "ouadeoon" used tp' the t|R“t authorities, ft la
what mulatto Is no longer—a term of reproach, but
unlike mulatto, It ie never usod where a dne regard

THE GREAT RAILROAD STRIKE.
A Calm Review of Ileth Bides of the Con
troversy.
New York Jnilrnal of Commeree.
The letter of Mr. Powderly, Grand Mas
ter of the Knights of Labor, published in
the papers yesterday, took tho pulilio by
surprise, because it wss so unlike iu tem
per- and spirit all that has hitherto appeared
over bis signature. Let us go back to tbe
beginning of the outbreak. A wan named
Hall was discharged by the Texas aud Pa
cific Railroad Company, as they claim for*
proper cause, aud his comrades of the labor
organiz ition insisted that be slmnld he re
stored to his place. That road butt been in
financial difficulties and was in tho hands
of a receiver appointed under State author
ity. A strike was ordered not only in that
company, but on all connecting roads that
did not refuse to deliver freight to it..
The Missouri Pacific, of which Mr. Gould
is president, forms a part of a continuous
line, and conneats with the Texas and Pacific
rosd. If a merchant in New .York or Chicago
or St. Lonis gave Mr. Gould's road a loud of
freight to deliver on the line of tho Texas,
of course the road would bo liable if it re
fused to deliver it. Mr. Irons, president of
a local assembly ot the Knights, ordered
Mr. Hoxie, general superintendent of the
Missouri Pacific, not tu take on any freight
for the road that refused to employ Hull,
and threatened if this was not dime to tin
up hia road also. We.donbt if Mr. Hoxie
had. any legal fight to bike such a stand,
even if he hod been in Hearty sympathy with
the strikers, llis raid isn ctnimon carrier,
and if goods, for citrringo were tendered to it
by n merchant, could Mr. Hoxie'lswfnlly re
fuse to take it on the ground that the corpo-
rufirm to whom the freight was to be dolir-
X d decline^ to'employ a'mnn named Ifn i?
insides all this, the re Usd been some ht-
bor trohbb s betw'con this road anil its cm-
plover, which bfid been happily' settled by a
conferepej ef Mr. Gould and Mr, Powderly,
and tbe latter bud given the former anna,
aurancV .tlmt,there should be no strike on
that road until nhy q.lo-tion raised between
it and its- wotjtingmi n had heeir disctisgfsi
between them, and dhe notice of n failure It
ugieeha l hfelt given. Mr. Gould WfiSAway
in'liis yuefif, and.' Sir.-Powtleriy was not
OoiisKliuJ, and thp strike occurred not only
iu the face.of this n'greemqnt, hut Without,
any compimut <>[ ill treatment on the part
of tho striketa. , f .
It is projieT to say. that afte r live strike hud
taken place, tbH.dire-i'tors of the movement,
not finding Hiiliicient groiiud for their vin
dication iu the discharge of Hall, who was.
employed by a corporation over which Mr.
Gould hud no authority whatever, dal lbnko
out a list of grievance* against the cianilgc-
raent of the Missouri Pacific, but the weak
point in their case is t'unl no such list of
o]ipressians or exactions, and no demand
fortheir redress vow,presented before the
strike, and there is sotbing to show that
every , one of the wremgs thus .tabulated
would not have been rulresscd on a proper
representation to the offirials. and without
ocaattton for any further difficulty.
-The way tn which Mr. Powderly treated
the matter, after it was brought to bis’no
tice, gained him much credit with the peo
ple at large throughout the countryj Ho
declared timt the ..strike should not Have
taken pAoce; that ,Aho alterant to'use; the,
•MUsOiui Pacific to coerce fhe Texns roajl to
take back the man of the naun* of Hull,
when tlie htter corporation was in charge,
of a receiver wind tile former hudnocoiitrol
ovr* U, could nut bu jtistiotsi. ' *. ; ■
Tho naitjral solution of tire diffictllty,,
liovyeVi-r, was beyond Jlr. I’ovdorlyti roheh.
lt'ir- evident that 'the proper way w raid (invc
beerv fmnkly To sicknowledgo the arror, to
send tbe men back to their work, and then,
to demand of Mr. GOuldthe wfomaof bis
Adrrtbiifrtratixrn where it wasnoedud.'luaViug
the question ol Hall to th« road in vvliiaii
he had beeta dtaployetl. Wo l-av'.i Some rea
son to believe that Mr. l’oVrc.ariB exiirti-d
himself to bring this ressonahio srrungo-
ment about, and failed because Mr. Ujirtiu.
Irons anti thwlocal officials noting: with: him
were not wilting to admit their error,: and
were dotormJaed that their organization,
should Ye reosgnized before they would net.
tie tho contwyaMsy.
Sir Gould'* position seems to haw* been
that the men Mringstritck because has ooin-,
pony were nut wilting to refuse tha offered
freight 'should resume work..declaring the
strike at on ami He would then moot any
of Ms own employes who hod a grievance
and do whntovei he could ho intisiy them,
and if he- tailed would submit tho matter to
utUtration. Mi. Powderly aswncos. and
perhaps so- uUiteratood it, that Mr. Hoxie
wuo to be instrwttisl to meet the Kiigbtg in
arbitratiooins a condition of tlio order to re
sume work. At any rata cn order by Mr.
Powderly dir the strikers lo resume work
woo not obeyed, and on the remonstrance
of Irons and hie fellow officials was subse
quently revoked. >
An attempt wws then made to tiuoff/rat
of eraliloynient a large force of miners in
order.to cut off the company's -sipply of
cook. \l waff announced that this Was done
and we believe the enter war issued by Hie
leadrers, bat was not obeyed.. Re staled
tbe other day that there would come a time
whan such workingmen would refuse to
leave thei-v deployment to nvunga an imag
inary wrong. The minim did cot teel suf
ficiently interested in tha man ni. the name
of Hall to deprive themselves, and' tliciv
families c< thetr weekly wages.
We eom* now to tua mnnlfavtn against
Gonhi publisbiHl over the signature of Mr.
Powderly, in which ha declares War to the
knife against the rail.- .ml magnate. It docs
not sound to us like this gentleman's com
position; we believe that it was written for
flim during liis-illnerA, and we wonder that
wih hia good sense and judgment he could
havo been induced to sign it. There it or
dinarily very little popular sympathy with
Mr. Gould, and if his ant gonistwas like
unto him and only the two were in the neg,
the public wuttld doubtless enjoy tha fight,
as the woman did when her husband. *n-
sountered the bear, without much regard as
to tbe issue of the contest.
Uut Mr. Powderly cannot afford to gome
down from hia high position to oDgcge in
suoh a personal quarrel, and the Manifesto
he has signed seta forth a spirit in vjhich it
is to3>« wsgel that is wholly reprehensible.
The Knights of Labor have stood, he claims,
between Mr. Gould's property aual ruin.
The assertion that if the strike XX to con
tinue "ovary act of'violence, cverydrop cf
blood that may be shed from this time
forth” will be laid at Mr. Gould’s door, us
almost on open avowal that the restraint
imposed by air. Powderly and hit asso
ciates in office on tbe possiun* of the strik
ers will be removed, and they will lie. al
lowed to bum down tho sliopa and depots,
and to wreck the trains, at whatever leas to
life and property.
Wo an* not interested in Mr. Gould's
personal biography. It, os the ntituifesto
hints, there are scandalous chaplets in* it,
our only regret at the exposure woo'.db ■ u
due consideration for the public mura'a.
ltut the threat that the uon enrolled iu this
organization are to bo let loose to ctrry out
the work of destroying the property whose
nmefigemcnt they arc not permitted th con*
trul, displays n spirit, of malevolence Unit
will not find approval'm any hotid-t hm&W
even among those who * sympathize fiqol
deeply with thew nings of thebilion*. Such
a-oonrse can only Sfefback 'fof.'fiiatri' years
the refdhn Mr. Po^rhrty tsAfttdtig MOfTiYt,
and if entered npon moat result in imposing
freah burdens upon shoulders already weary
of the heavy weight. *
SUNDAY IN WASHINGTON.
Methods by Which Diplomat* anil States
men Drive Away Dull Core.
Tho observance of the Sablath differs
greatly in the upper circles, some august
families observing it in the strictest old
blue-low Conntclicut way. In one pdntiul
home in the northwest end'of the city a
•Sunday evening caller drops into a family
Jiiblu class, with the head of the family
reading and explaining the text in a run
ning discourse. Secretary FrelingUuysen
used to insist upon tlio strictest observance
of tho SxbbatU in his family, and no Sun
day callers were ev er received until the time
whon lie came back us a member of Ar
thur's Cabinet and had to see all of his
l'rcsbyturian rules for the Sabbath ruth
lessly broken into by his chief. Secretary
FrelingUayaefi.always n»ks.a blessing at his
tablu sad never omitted It in tho face of the
most formal and largest dinner parties.
Foreigners, who were new to tho custom,
used to ppt themselves in disgrace by not
heeding or appreciating the silent pause of
the company after they were seated, and
the custom was most productive of embar
rassment.
The diplomats, being nearly all Roman
ists, observe the Hubbub after tliei own
fashion, going dutifully to masses in the
mprtiing and killing time for the rest of the
long day by projuenadcs, calls, dinners and
gatherings at one bouse or another in the
evening. A few ot the nltra swell society
women; havo Sunday as their reception
day, claiming that all the other afternoon*
are occupied and that there is no place to
go on Snnday afternoons. Some very gay*
and select couipuaioM are drawn together in
this way and on account of the day the
gatherings have uu air of informality to
them that makes them the more enjoyable
to the participants. In some coses distinct
cards of invitation have been sent Out for
regular teas in honor of some artist or liter
ary lion, bat tlmt happens seldom.
-Tbs promonade out the east aide of Con
necticut avenue after vesper service has not
fidlen off in immbera, but is a little out of
fsohinn now. "Our best people,"as they
term thempelveic who liiut mode that high
way popular for Sunday afternoon conatita-
tionuls, have withdrawn to an extent, now
flint j **ths other peoplo" have taken to pa-,
tromzing it ia oraer to see and be with tbe
hunt ton. “Tho nice people" do not walk
on this avenue Sunday afternoons, unless it
is necessary in going from one point to an
other,and then they slip quietly by on tbe
deserted pavements of the west side. The
tut tv, ot vonnie, are free to wander up and
down an I inspect the crowds oi unsophisti
cated' an ti the commonplace, but the women
never. Among tho reasons given as con
vincing trout for tbe latter declaring it had
form Lor them to walk there was that a cer
tain swell used continually to meet her
maid, another met her milliner and a third
the eateres’s head man, and he actually
bowed Ho her. .: Faney thatl—St. Lonis
