The Labor Troubles at Washing

WASHINGTON, July PA heavy
rain this afternoon put an end to the
labor troubles at Washington monu-
ment. Early in the day the increase
of large police force was necessary
to preserve the property of contract
ors in other portions of the city. A
gang of men visited those engaged al
less than $3.50 per day, and persuaded
them TO quit. Various rumors are
afloat Of men being shot for resisting
the police,

The Times, discussing that part OF
the resolution relating to British

says there is room for contention,
that Lord HartingtoD's censure Of the
treaty is either too little or too much.

country unnecessarily in liabilities OF

LAW AND ORDER TO THE RESCUE.

WASHINGTON, ID. C., July 29.-The
action of the authorities here during
the past twelve hours has tended
greatly toward preventing any fur
thcr outbreak tomorrow. The ar
rest of Cohen last night seems to have
opened the eyes of his fellow Com
munists to the fact that it will be dam
gerOus to their liberty to cOnvoke
meetings at which to indulge in in
cendiary harangues tending to in
flame the worst passions of the igno-
rant multitude which they have
dra wn around them. Every prepa-
ton has been made to protect such
laborers as desire work, aud it is the
opinion of the authorities that the
strikers, finding themselves without
leaders, will cease attempts to compel
the contractors to accede to their de-
mand of $3.50 per day. Orders have
been issued to prevent the great mass
meeting which was to assemble Mon
day night, and at which Cohen had
promised that Kearney would speak.
Cohen's case will come up for trial
tomorrow, and it is expected that,
under the charge of melting riot ana
vagrancy, he will retire for some
time from active participation in the
labor movement. In an interview
shortly after his arrest, Cohen stated
that as soon as his mission was con-
Guided he expected to proceed to New
York, where he would enter the pO-
litical field in the cause of the Labor
party.
Several rioters were hrraigned in
the police court, to-day, and John II.
Graham, prominent in the disturb
ance, was sent to Jail for three months.
Cohen, who was arrested Saturday
night, and who is regarded as lead
ing agitator, was not ready for trial
and his case was postponed until to-
morrow.

In another place we publish an arti-
Gle taken from the State Register, bear
ing the caption: "7He Facts about the
Pe,itentiayy," to which we call atten-
ton. We have examined the mat
tiers of which this article treats, and
the result is this: That unless officers
can be blamed for failing to perform
things outside of their, or in other
words, unless they can be blamed for
not attending to matters, to have done
which would have been meddling
with other officers business, then no
blame can attach to Hon. j. T. Young,
Auditor Sherman, Treasurer Bemis
1t has been generally supposed that
when an officer is true to his own
trusts and duties he is above reproach
as an officer, or at least cannot be
blamed for the shortcomings of other
officers in the discharge of their du-
ties. While We say this we do not
pretend to say but that it would have
been the duty Of all these officers, as
it would that of any good citizen, to
expose official wrong-doing when it
came to their knowledge, but it is not
just or right to blame them for not
finding out and not knowing things
that were entirely outside the scope
of their duties as imposed by law.

The "Grange Visitor" of Michi-

TEN of that State, and finds muddy

server, that the two most important
clements in operating the machinery

is much that is wrong, unnecessary
and annoying in the machinery of

The National Grange.

The twelfth annual session of the
National Grange, will be held at the
Capitol in Richmond, Va, beginning
Wednesday, 22d November. Tie
Grange is composed of the Masters
of the State Oranges and their wives,
who are entitled to vote, and few
officers and honorary members, who
may take part in the deliberations
but may not vote. Nothing has APP
pcarcd to indicate what measures
will be pressed for notice except in
the matter of representation. As
now constituted, there is at least the
appearance of inequality in the rule
which gives to every State Grange
two representatives, no matter how
small the constituency, while tho
State Oranges having large member
ships are restricted by the arbitrary
rule to the same limit. Since the sup
port of the institution is drawn per
capita from the membership of the
Subordinate Oranges, there is rcas-
enable argument that proportionatc
representation should be provided.
An earnest desire for the change was
manifested at the last session, and
the effort to reach by constitutional
provision Just apport.onment was
successfully made, but unfortunately
IL was defeated by the primary bod
les in their subsequent meetings. IL
is impossible to say how much in
terest in the matter will be she wn in
the approaching session. That cor,
rection of the inequality is needed
there can be no doubt, but the diff
cnlties in the way are of such per-
picking character that the best eff
forts on the part of the members who
recognize the necessity of the change
are likely to be bafiied.
Troublesome as this question of
representation is, IL will probably
not mar the harmony of the session.
In some way IL will be adjusted ulti-
mately, as II must be. The necessity
for national organization repre-
senting the State Oranges is too
great TO permit discussions which
would jeopardize the existence OF
the National Grange. II may be ex-
pected, therefore, that wise cOunsels
will prevail, aud that the approach
ing session will be characterized by
that harmony which gives hope of q
peaceful solution to veXatious prob.
lens affecting the welfare of the
order.
Several of the State Oranges will
be represented in the Richmond
meeting by new members, New YorE

ming. AS one of the early advisers,
he aided by his ripe thought, In Civ
ing TO the order It's great usefulness
guiding, the more impulsive natures
safely by many dangers. His pres
ence will be greatly missed by many
members who have profitcd in the
past by his safe judgment, and who
cherish for HIM warm regard inspir-
ed by genial social qualities and mod
est worth. Ills successor will surely
win high place in the esteem of his
associates. But entering the body
without acquaintance, he must of
necessity have more difficult tasks, at
least in the beginning. His constitu-
cney has not the slightest doubt,
however, that every demand upon
him win be met by that wise, action
which has marked his course in the
high trusts reposed in him heretofore
by the body which he is now TO rep
resent in the National Grange. :.
Whatever may be the demands
upon the session soon to be held il
can not be doubted that there will be
earnest desire to advance the order
by such action as will tend TO pro-
mote harmony and increased useful
ness. The Grange can no longer be
regarded as an experiment. The
good it has already accomplished en-
titles it to a place in the affections of
the people. Its bencfcent work has
been of untold value TO the great
class engaged in the prime industry
of the land. 1t has elevated their cali
ing and given to farmers that self
respect which leads TO future adj
vancement. The work Of the Ma
tional Grange is to intensity every
good impulse of the class in whose
interest 1t is formed. That it may
succeed is the earnest wish of ali
good friends of the order. --Husbdnd-

An Excellent Suggestion,

The following letter from the Hus-
Jandman, New York, contains an
excellent hint. The Grange in the
State of New York, is live institu-
ton, as isalso the Farmers alliance,
and farmers clubs, grange meetings
are fixed institutions there. The
oranges of.Texas should carry out
these visiting meetings, as some
oranges are already in the habit of
doing:
Editors Husbdndmdn of the
many plans adopted to keep up in
terest in our Grange, one is an OK
change of lecturers. BY invitation
the lecturer of another Grange ac-
companicd by the brothers and sis
tiers pays us visit and delivers n
lecture on some subject interesting
TO farmers. After he is done speak
ing the Steward and lady officers are
requested to pass around refresh
ments. When the Grange is again
called to order the visiting brothers
and sisters are called ON for short
speeches. At some future time we
will return this compliment. Such
gatherings are both instructive and
interesting, giving us new thoughts
to ponder over for some time also
new lessons i'm the different branches
of husbandry. AT our last meeting
the Lecturer of Golden Harvest
Grange gave us his experience in
raising corn on low clay soil by care
full tilling when the land was in suit
able condition and giving liberal
supply of manure. lie harvested at
the rate of ninety bushels to the
acre. lie also brought specimen of
Tom Thumb corn that had grown in
rich soil. The original ears were
from three TO four inches long while
those he exhibited were from nine to
ten. lie told us about his neighbours
onion field, one rod in length, yield
ing nearly one bushel. They grew
so thick that nearly every other
onion was lifted above the others,
only on the tap root reaching into
soil. Atthe close he admonished us
10 cultivate fewer acres, and what
Sncycr we do strive to do well.
