TIE more one Eliminates upon the
events of the past three weeks which
have transpired in connection with
the railroad riots the more unreason-
able and damaging to the interests of
the public do the actions of the mob
appear. 1t transpires that most of the
damage inflicted was by the scum of
society gathered in our large cities
constituted of idlers. vagabonds, gam
blers and thieves who took. occasion
to give expression to their acquired
instincts for arson, plumber and muir
der at time their depredations might
reasonably be attributed to another
class-the workingmen who unfortu-
nately became strikers. The real
damage TO the public cannot be esti-
mated with any degree of accuracy.
The loss OF life was not considerable
while the destruction of property
amounted to millions; trade and COM
merce were literally paralyzed for a
time, the blockade of commerce very
materially affecting those industries
which depend upon the railways for
the supply of raw material and the
shipment Of manufactured products;
many manufactures were closed
pending this suspension of transpor-
tation. thus throwing out of employ
ment thousands upon thousands of
working-men in no way responsible
for the unhappy state of affairs and
who were content with their labor and
the pay they were receiving for the
same; in other instances representa-
tives of the mob visited workshops
and manufactures commanding oper-
ators to abstain from further labor,
under pain of death if this command
was disobeyed, merely because the ri
oters were beside themselves and bent
upon injurIng most those who could
least afford to carry the burden. The
riots will not be without their whole
some lessons, however, and laboring-
men will do well to avoid the shoals
upon which trades-unions and black
legs would strand them; let them re-
serve to themselves the right of free
men to labor wherever they may
choose and at prices at which they
may agree to work, even if low, until
something better turns up; and just
here it may not be improper to sug-
gest to our Congressional lawmakers
that the military arm of the govern
ment should be endorsed with strength
sufficient to disperse mobs whenever
and wherever they may congregate,
protecting labOrIng men in their right
to labor, the threats and actions of
tramps and dead-beats to the contrary
Notwithstanding.

A FEW SUGGESTIONS.
MILWAUKEE, WIS, July 2Sth, 1877.

MILWAUKEE, WIS, JULt @olh,l
EDITORS JOURNAL 1T may not surprise
you when tell you that your village is get
ting to be pretty well known throughout
this and parts OF other states. | was fortu-
nate enough to pay it visit short time ago.
saw in it unmistakable signs of prosperity
Backed by splendid farming country and
with strong energetic business men in your
midst, there are but few things that can de-
ter the man of ordinary caution from becom-
ing an inhabitant of your village warranted
as he is by things that exist that River Falls
must one day become business center.
The first objection will place on the list is
a want OF railroad 1t is not worth while TO
stop TO enumerate the advantages OF rail-
road built from Hudson to River Falls. Suf-
fee it to say that a narrow gauge road could
be built at cost not to exceed 100000 that
would answer every purpose and in one year
enhance the value of property in your village
more than twice that amount. The second
is the limited amount of sidewalks. One
morning succeeding a nights rain thought
to increase my appetite for breakfast by TAX
ing walk around town, but what was my
disgust when found in order to see most of
the best streets would have to wade in mud.
With muddy boots l returned to the hotel
with the thought III mind that If the people
of River Falls wanted to impress the stranger
favorably they had better reserve walking
him around town until after they had built
sidewalks. Now comes the third and most
important. On inquiry l found there was
nothing in the village in the shape ola fire
company. My heavens, what mean you-a
village OF 1000 inhabitants, mostly jewellers
in frame buildings, reckless and needless Of
your own lives and property, 60 to sleep not
knowing what hour you may be reused to
find your all in flames. Then see the look of
almost utter helplessness depicted on every
countenance, for you have nothing at your
command to but family battle the flames =
they mock your efforts as they lap up build
ing after building Have you not had two
fearful examples What wait you for,-
anotherf "Look at our fire-prooi stone and
brick buildings erected since the last fire, +"
you say Dare you predict what night a
lamp explosion may not turn them into burn
ing caldrOns Or are you so tar relieved
from the meendiary that his fire brand may
not be applied to your possessionsi Where
are your village authorities Wake them
up. Rouse yourselves to a sense OF your own
needs and dangers. Good friends with a
deep interest in your welfare, have tried TO
point out three decided objections to your
village. Take them to heart, set at work and
venture TO predict that in less than one
year you can overcome them. And in bid
ding You good bye let me advise you before
expending more money on iron bridges or a
park, provide yourselves, at least, with some
means of checking the ravages of fire and Sc
cure what you already possess.
Yours &c,
STRANGER.

The political situation in Ohio which
has heretofore been the subject of
much comment has assumed shape by
the nomination of the Democratic and
Republican tickets respectively and
the adoption of their platforms. The
Democratic candidate for Governor as
announced through our columns last
week is X. NJ. Bishop, we believe a
wholesale grocer of Cincinnati, and
not very extensively known in politi-
cal circles. The Republican candidate
is W. II. West, a gentleman of local
celebrity but unknow tonational fame.
The Republican platform among
other things favoTs the reconciliation
of silver. Mr.. West is said to be an
excellent stump orator and in this re-
spect may enjoy an advantage over his
Democratic opponent.

Senatorial District Committee for the
