Communism PROCESSES to be about to do all
things for the workingman. Something of
what it will do for him may be judged from
what it has already done In San Francisco.
! The city has been more disturbed than any
other in the country by the Communists,
chiefly through the noise made by one kear-
/ ney. This individual, however, at length be-
came so obnoxious to his own comrades that
they repudiated him, and refused to allow
him to speak for them or among them. Up
i to that time Kearney had obtained his living
from contributions made by the Working

made more noise than ever. detachment OF
police kept him from entering a working
mems hall and disturbing meeting, but he
gathered force Of idlers at street corner
and began haranguing them in terms 50 vio-
lent that the street was soon blocked with
people, and riot appeared imminent. Orders
ing A sergeant, accompanied by seventy
roundsmen, appeared and ordered the crowd
b dispense. They did not move, but began
to hiss the police and groan: Again
they were ordered to dispense, but their
only answer was to give three groans
fol, the police. Then, without any more non
sense, the sergeant ordered his men to
charge They did 50 also without any non
sense, and In five minutes not man was left
of that army. Seventy policemen had put
1000 Of them to flight kearney, like the boy
who made faces at his enemys sister, got
himself to safe place at the top of his speed,
and vented his wrath by calling the officers
the "cowardly' police. Seeing, though, that
seventy policemen had put to flight 1000 of
his followers, they could not have been so
very "cowardly."
For six months or more previous to this dis
turbance kearney had been perambuating
California, stirring up the hoodlums against
the Chinese as well as against the capitalists,
until San Francisco began to havea bad name
Fist $3,OOO,0O0 worth of capital became
alarmed and went to Europe for investment
Next another 81 100000 which had been sent

H6 per cent. to build a block of stores and
warehouses was sent back in hurry

Mic coast had nearly finished the contract for
Building set of rolling mills at San Francis
Eoo The mills would have cost 81 800 0O0 and
#lwhen finished would have given steady en-
Soloyment to 800 men. But the partner who
went West had seen a riot or two in the East,
and no sooner did he become aware Of the
. movements of kearneyism than he tele-
lgraphed countermanding the order for the
money. So that $6000,00o and steady en-
|oloyment for 1000 men were lost to San Fran
