Proclamation Of Gov. Hendricks.
AWAITING ORDERS.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.,
STATE OF INDIANA,
ISp1ASApoL1s. August Is. 1875.

PROCLAMATION BY THE GOVERNOR.
I have been officially informed that
large body Of persons employed upon the
Ohio & Mississippi Railway have banded
together for the purpose Of obstructing
the passage OF trains upon said road, and
for several days by force have prevented
the transaction of freight and shipping
business, and have stopped and-now de-
tain upon and along the road many trains
laden with live stock and products on
their way to market, whereby great
public Inconvenience and loss are 'stis-
tained. I have been informed also
that in the county Of Knox the Sheriff
has been and Is unable to meet and resist
the large force OF persons so unlawiully
banded together. He has therefore call
ed on me to render him such assistance as
may be necessary to maintain public
peace. The welfare Of the society and the
prosperity Of the business throughout an
important section If the country require
that the organization and the au-
thority and power OF the law must be res
tored. Persons interested in the
shipment Of the products Of the country
to markethave right TO the enjoyment Of
feeling OF security in respect thereto that
becomes impossible when such combina-
tions for such purposes can exist with
impunity. No Qualification is found in
the fact that the railway company may
have tailed in any Of its obligations to.
wards its employees. For such fail
ure the remedy provided by law Is to
be found in the courts and not in
irregular and dangerous proceedings.
By violent and unlawful proceedings the
right can not be maintained nor the law
vindicated. l call upon all who are con-
nected with these bands 10 Withdraw
from them at once and place Themselves
On the side OF lawful authority. In
breaking down the authority Of the law
you do society a great wrong. You can
not expect safety in fraternal pledges TO
stand by each other in violent and
unlawful proceedings. The law is
stronger than your pledges, and you will
be oyertaken; the agencies and instru-
mentalities Of the law will reach You.
As citizens you cannot afford to stand in
the attitude Of law breakers. ] call upon
you to disband at once and return to
your employments, and by easier and
safer means you will be able to maintain
your rights. l call upon the officers to
exercise all the powers with which they
are endowed 10 break up the combination
and to bring guilty members, who may re-
main contumacious, to punishment andfor
the maintenance Of law and preserva-
ton Of the public peace, invoke the
sentiments and judgment Of the people
against all combinatians for unlawful
purposes.
