The Taxpayers of Allegheny coun-
ty, Pennsylvania, will have to pay
the losses .($5, OOO,O 0O) caused by the
rioters in Pittsburg. This is Penn
sylvania law, and the same law exists
in New York. In 1873, at the time of
the draft riot, New York City had to
pay millions of dollars for damages
to property. In 1914 the city of
Philadelphia had to pay all the losses,
amounting to millions, caused by
what is called the Native American
riot. The New York Tribune office
was Quilted in 1853. The city paid
Horace Greeley several thousand dol
lars damages. In l84l the Philan-
thrOpist, Cincinnati Abolition paper,
was mobbed. The city footed the
bill. Will the taxpayers remember
that all property destroyed by rioters
must be paid for by the taxpayers.
And will they, remembering this,
frown down the efforts of noisy and
irresponsible agitationists to create a
disturbance

Hote stops were early taken agxihsl
mob violence. When the incendiary
speeches at the Court House were
made, Des Moines had fair warning
that there were some men here base
enough to incite riot, and before the
dawn of the next morning ample ar
engagements had been made for de.
fence. A complete enrolment wSa
effected, among the law and order
lmen-the men that had no sympathy
with or respect for the worthless
demagogue that spoke in favor Of the
commune. The arsenal was placed
under guard, and the arms. Asignal
Of danger was agreed upon and q
rendezvous selected. A commander
was chosen. Every manner Of ar
rangement for maintaining peace was
quietly perfected. Among the men
signing the enrolment were hundreds
of the workingmen of the city-men
that feel keenly the pinching of the
hard times, but that realize fully the
utter folly and madness of riot. Hap
PLY all danger is now. past and the
precautions, ample rs they were, are
not needed. Stale Register.
Here the strikers have behaved 90
orderly that no apprehension has been
felt. 1t is true that few bummers
who never done days work in their

The strike of q few railroad en-
ployes and laborers which took place
in Council Bluffs on Wednesday may
now be considered ended. This is
absolutely the case SO far as any of
the persons who took part in the
movement are concerned, whose resi-

& @. men here cannot be considered
as strikers in the real meaning of the
term, as they are obliged to remain
idle ON account of the action of the

caused the company to suspend its

Of yesterday and the day before,

1t is an acknowledged and conced-
ed fact that at the time of the recent
strike, and for year preceding, there
were one msllion Of able-bodied me-
chanics, millers and laborers, as well
as clerks and statesmen, out Of em-
ployment because there was nobody
to hire them, To these the whole
field Of labor, at any rate Of wages,
was closed. To these it was not a
question of low wages, but a matter
of no wages not q question of eight
or ten hours per day, but of employ
ment at all. Was it polite for work
ingmen to strike for general ad-
vance of wages and a reduction of
time of labor, when there were one
million Of workmen who had no
wages or work of any kind? Was it
polite or sensible to strike for an in
crease of wages at time when the
number of persons able to get any
wages was daily decreasing and
prices falling.

Summer Sundays.

We like very much the plan oil
several churches in the city or larger
villages, uniting for service on the
summer Sundays. But these services
should be light and brief; and we
think a service in the morning, with
the Sabbath School, is quite sufficient
for the. day. The mind is sluggish
and does not care to work in summer
heats the body is lazy and likes an
easy posture; the sensibilities are
languid, and do n ot care to be aroused.
The preacher should not be troub-
led if but portion Of the family are
present, and if those who come get
uneasy after forty-five minutes sit
ting. The good people of the neigh
borhood ought not to charge it to to-
tai depravity if the boys and girls
take quiet stroll on q Sabbath aft
ernoon, or enjoy. themselves under
the old shade tree. In a word be
sensible, these warm days. Have
few services. Preach short sermons.
Make short prayers, right to the
point; and take summer life in a
quiet, respectable way.-Prof. Sizing.

OsKALoosA, July Esd. Register !:
The post mortem examination held
upon the body of David Golden oc-
Cured yesterday afternoon at one
o'clock. DR.. Lathrop, of Ottumwa,
says, and Drs. Scott, Nugent, Hoffman
and Gruwell, Of this city, concur in
the opinion, that the shooting was the
cause of Golden's death. The evil
dence before the Coroner's Jury has
not been concluded, but probably will
be this afternoon. Max Roenspiss is
in Jail in default Of giving bail, which
was increased from $1,000 to $4,000.
After the death of Golden, the trial
of Roenspiess before Justice J. NJ.
Loughridge was set for Monday
morning st 8 A. NJ, and one week
may be consumed in taking evidence.
This was q case Of unusual interest
to surgeons. Golden, who was shot
on the Goth, lived until SA. NJ, on the
9th. He was shot in the back of the
head at a point just left of the
line and on the crown; the ball pen
etrating forward and downward to
the cavity between the eyes and the
root of the nose, traversing distance
OTIS inches, and through the brain.
The character Of the wound was suf-
ficient to produce instant death.

Brutal Assault on One Of the Bar.
rott House Employees.
Yesterday afternoon CHASTITY cut.
ting scrape occurred in the Barrett
House dining room, which nearly
resulted in the death of one of the
employees, dining room boy named
Mike Medigan. It appears that the
waiter, Charles Raney, a quarrelsome,
vicious character, took offense al
some trifiing oversight on the part OF
Michigan, and after some word about
1t, Michigan sat down to eat his din.
ner. Raney came into the room soon
after with sharp butcher knife and
made wicked slash at the walters
throat, but fortunately missed his
aim, and inflicted a long, deep cash
ON his cheek. He then continued the
assault, striking savagely at the head,
evidently with the deliberate purpose
of committing murder. Before he
could be overpowered he had infict-
ed five terrible cuts, all of them about
the face, and every one Of which will
leave scar, if they do not some OF
them prove fatal in their results.
Raney was put in irons and lodged in
Jail to await the result of the wounded
mans injuries. 1t was brutal affair,
and stamps the would-be assassin as
q man dangerous to the well-bring OF
the commuhity.-Hasckeye.

! The Situation. :.

-
Tho situation In this city at noon
was practically the same as yesterday,
no Visible change having taken place.
A meeting was held last night of q
private nature, at which the situation
was discussed, sbut no conclusion arri-
we'd 1t. 5Aaa4s 2it5
This morning hand bill was prin-
ted and circulated calling public
railroad meeting 1t the City Hall at
2 30 this p. M, TO- which oil citizens
were invited for . general conference
meeting IS sasp IT,, ~
The public meeting this afternoon,
was 4 large one. 1t was called by
railroad mon for consultation with the
citizens Of the city. Speeches were
made on the part Of the citizens by
O. d. Tisiale, Maj. A. H. Hamilton.
Rev. Sunderland, Rev. Teter and
Prof. Rheem; and on the part Of the
railroad men, BY Engineer Courtney
and others. The meeting, perhaps,
will be productive Of no results, but
All will be benefitsd by the general
interchange Of views. At the close
Of the meeting Mr., Headly, the pre-
siding officer remarked that they
"thankcd the citizens Of tho city for
their good advice and their conf
dence, but, wishsds them 10 UNDER
stand that the railroad men stood as
firm - ever they did !" from which
it would seem that they do not antic-
ipate any immediate settlement Of the
difficulties. One speaker, Mr.. Court
ney, We believe, said that they had
full reports from every other part Of
the road, and sevsryMhsre all the men
stood firm, except ~ Burlington,
where the conductors and brakemen
had signified their Willingness to go
to work again, but al other men are
as determined IS before. All reports
to the contrary were false. Thus it
will be seen that we cannot yet calcu-
late with any definiteness when the
affair will be settled and the trains
running again. We have not time to
give even q brief synopsis of the
speeches but may refer to some of
them at another time. sih1i3 a
