President M. E. Ingalls of the Chesa
peake and Ohio and Big Four railroads
haaj w5( a bow of promiee against the
dark dodd of railroad labor troubles. In
his annual report to the stockholders
of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad,
jast issued, he . advocates a co-ppera-ti,ve
plan of profit sharing with the em
ploye, and cyneiderOhjs the beet
ties of the labor problem.- It is said that
this would be a unique move for a rail
road company to take, as no large com
pan'y: has ever tried tho cooperative
system. The board of directors ogreee
with President Ingalls in the efficacy of
the proposed departure, and the presi
dent has recommended that the stock
holders appoint a committee to consider
the plan and take such action as will
legalize anything the directors may do
n that line. There are vast poraibil-
ities.iri UTr. Ingall'B ; suggestion the plan
of profit-sharing can hardly be called an
experiment, as it is a feature in several
large and successful manufacturing and
mercantile concerns of this country. To
jnakc railroad employee, in part, their
own -cm ploy era ; to make them person
allv and aggressively interested in the
well-being of the road . and. give them
tkat sense of part ownership" incidental
-to profit-sharing, might do a groat deal
toward, advancing the millennium of
capital and labor. . It is a most interest
inz suscestion, and oomes with a special
emphasis at this time of trouble and un
rest. . ' :
The New York Post has beguu to
speculate upon the number' of ways-n
which Mr. Cleveland can be elected with
oqt New York. There are. eeveral. each
snore unlikely of realization than its pre'
deceesor. But while the tendency to
impossible combination is to madness
aear allied, there is Just a glimmer of
sanity in the recognition of the fact that
Mew York is for Benjamin Harrison, by
a hopeless majority.
The defeat at Homestead, the disaster
at Coal Creek, and the collapse of the
'strike at Buffalo provoke the inquiry:
Are all strikes failures? Do great striker
over succeed? 'Workmen have gone out
from all sorts of-employment, confident,
defiant, and loval to each other, only to
fail. Other workmen have been found
to take their 'places upon "the" terms
which the strikers refused to accept,
Therefore many assert that strikes, not
having accomplished the specific pur
pose which they set out to accomplish,
should have "failure" written up against
them. ,
But this is a very narrow view to take
of the subject. Every strike' has left its
lesson and its Impression, some super
ficial and others deep, upon labor con
ditions. Strikes have served to mark
the limits of oppression by employers
aud the autocratic demands of employes.
fhey have demonstrated repeatedly to
managers of corporations that there If S
line in wage slavery beyond which they
cannot go. At' the same time innumer
able failures have taught striking era
ployes that there are demands which
cannot be enforced no matter how
strongly they are urged by strikes, boy
cotts, and the intimidation of non-union
men. Organized labor has a library
full of experience acquired in striking
for more than the labor market would
yield to it. Corporate monopolies have
lost millions in acquiring the knowledge
of just how far they can go in reducing
waeea.-or imposing restrictive condi
tions.
While strikes have perhaps tailed as
strikes, it cannot be. assumed that they
have failed . as lessons. No statistics
can be obtained, nor can any estimate
be made as to the number of strikes
which have been prevented by the spec
tacle of strike failures.- Dissatisfied, em
ployes will learn from Homestead and
Buffalo to be moderate in their demands
and prudent in the methods employed
to enforce them. Employers will like
wise learn wisdom- from these same ex
periences. The world in genqral learns
that an honorable, fair and- effective
method of settling labor difficulties
must, be found.
THE CHOLERA IX NE W YORK.
Hamburg dispatches report the pre
sent cholera epidemic the worst that has
ever visited that city, and. every hour the
situation becomes worse. -People, are
dying off like sheep and the .plague is
spreading, iiitter imprecations .are
heaped upon the authorities for their
pigheadedness in letting the victims lie
nn buried toscatter contagion among all,
while they hunted for papers to show
the ago, occupation, etc., of the dead
person. A reign of terror prevails, and
every person who can possibly do eo is
fleeing from the city. In many parts of
toe city groceries, bakeries and butcher
shops have been closed by the police,
tho owners and their salesmen having
been stricken down while attending to
business. .
The imminent and immediate dangers
to. the port of New York, from arrivals
from Hamburg has increased the past two
days by arrivals from Germany notably, !
and the, ,alM!tet TiSaSentfers have be
lauded on Hoffman island. While there
is oaoeo for alarm tt is Bald the quaran
tine regulations In the United States are
so perfect that our health Officers have
great confidence in their power to pre
vent the spread of the disease; Time
alone will tell. With the utmost pre
caution cholera may cross the continen
to this coast, even to this city. With
our daily railway traffic such a thing
more liable to occur than in 1850,' when
it last visited this coast in its worst form
when thousands of emigrants were bur
ied in lonely graves along the trail, vie
timsot a disease ot wbicn little was
then known beyond its deadly charac
ter. Some of these graves are not far
from us, a number being in the Blue
mountains and on .the sandy '. wastes
along tno uoiumbia river, while more
are to be found on the high plateaus
about Fort Hall, Idaho. Cholera is
filth disease, partaking in this of the
nature of the various forms of typhoid
scarlet and kindred fevers, and is at
tended with some of the same prcrnoni
tory symptoms, hence that cleanliness
which is akin to godliness, should be
elaborated upon with profit to the hu
man tamiiy.

After five months in the west Mr, Jay
Gould has arrived in New York-and is
reported to be "as brown as a western
owboy." Is that an augury of the color
to which the" lambs will be done, or are
- we to expect that his operations will
make the atmosphere of Wall street
Hue?
The Oregon democratic papers are
lamenting the failure of negotiations for
a fusion with the people's party to beat
the Harrison electors in this state in
November, but it-is believed, neverthe
less, -that they still hope to work some
.scheme extensive enough to mix up the
' electoral vote of Oregon.

Tho members of the La Conner party
arrived home the other day, says tho
Pugt-t sound Mail, after a twelve days'
expedition to the snow-crowned . peak of
Mount Baker. On the morning of the
0th the party left- for - Mount Baker.
After traveling through an -almost im
penetrable jungle for. four miles they
struck a river and traveled a few miles
more and camped for the night at the
snow line of Mount Baker.. While the
boys were busy preparing supper a herd
of wild goats ran close to the camp, and
all hands fired,, but none were killed,
After breakfast on the morning of the
7th the party started for the summit of
Mount Baker traveling over snow, rang
ing from four to 200 feet deep, reaching
the crater, within 500 feet of the sum
mit, about noon. One member of the
party went within 150 feet of the sum
mit, and said be could easily have made
it were it not for a cr.'ck in the snow
They found an acre of ground full of lit
tle holes, through which fumes of sul?
Lptabr escaped. They pried into one with
a stick and it soon began to burn and
the lava flowed down the hill in rivulets.
It was pure sulphur. Then began the
descent, which was accomplished in the
short space of time of one hour and a
a half. - Mr. Gray says he had always
deemed it impossible to go to the top of
Mount Baker, but is now satisfied tht
it can be done and without much dim
cuity. .

The Philadelphia Ledger suggests that
inasmuch as this is the centenary : year
of the canal system of New York, the
celebration of the event should be made
the opportunity of beginning n inonu
ment to Uovernor Do Witt Clinton, to
whom more than to any other indi
vidual, the state is indepted for the cx
istence of the Erie canal, and whose dis
tinguished public services have not been
commemorated, as have the deeds of
-many leBS deserving men, by an approp
riate monument of stone or bronze, hut
the celebration is to take a less senti
mental and more practical form. The
union for the improvement of the canals
of the state of New York proposes to
celebrate the centennial by holding a
big canal convention this fall, at which
not only will the past usefulness of the
canals be celebrated, but steps will be
taken to insure their further improve
ment, 80 as to maintain their capacity
or continued service to the commerce of
the state, for the friends of the canals
believe that the present is a critical
period in their history.

from the treasury department are re

It is thought that only . the base lines

Indian land will be laid off also."
I be close season lor game expires to
morrow, but the Hood River Glacier
thinks this does not matter much, as
most of the pheasants and other desira
ble birds have been killed off. Similar
reports come from all sections west of
the Cascade- mountains. -If no efforts
are made to enforce the. law it should be
repealed, since, while it fails to protect
tbe game, it turns it over to the mercies
of the lawless and prevents the law-
abiding from getting a taste of its deli
cate flavor. ' "'
' While prospecting along Salmon river,
Eli Mason, of Garfield, discovered
beautiful crystal cave. From the ceiling
and on all sides the rocks are covered by
a white formation, probably largely com
posed of lime, the result of centuries of
the drippings of mineral water. From
the ceiling bang . fantastically shaped
stalactites, ' but their counterparts, the
stalagmites', are missing because the
floor of the cave is covered with water.
