The New York herald., 1879-08-24

The workingmen are hanging about the
sand lots waiting for Kearney's arrival,
which is anticipated with the greatest in
terest, as almost everything will depend
upon the course he concludes to adopt.
HOPES FOR KALLocHs RECOVERY.
At half-past six o'clock P. NJ Mr.. Kalloch
was in much improved condition.
slight examination has been made and the
physicians express the opinion that there
is good ground for expecting his recovery.
MODERATION ADVISED.
The evening journals counsel, above all
things. moderation on the part of the work
ingmen for the credit of the city and also
for their own sake on account of the bear
ing their action will have on the result
of the present campaign. The BulLe-
tin says, in effect, that the shooting
was a deliberate assassination, and reminds
its readers that twenty three years ago the
people of the city hanged the man who
killed an editor who dared express his con-
victions, but that now the law of society
seems to be that an editor may say
party talks his life is to be for
feited. It warns the workingmen that
the course they pursue will be the best evil
dence of their ability to administer the
affairs of the city, and that to resort to vio-
lence would be fatal mistake. The Post
practically claims that either Kalloch or
De Young was justified in the personal
attack by the language used. but De Young
was most to blame for beginning the quar-
rel by lampooning the father of Kalloch.
SYMPATHY WITH KALIocH.
So far as can at present be learned the
feeling of the community is almost entirely
with Kalloch. De Young's action is univer-
sally branded as q cold. blooded assassina-
ton, and the belief is general that if the
workingmen in the event of Kalloch's death,
demand the surrender of De Young for
lynch justice outside of the lawfully con-
stituted authorities not hand would be
raised to prevent the consummation of
their DESIRE 1t is rather early as yet to
speculate upon the effect of the occurrences
or upon political affairs, but this much
is evident from the expressions
heard on every side, that whatever
the result of Kalloch's wound, the affair
the Hon. Bilks, in this city. If Kalloch re-
covers he is likely to receive vote much
greater than would have been given
him had nothing Of the kind occurred.
If he dies, the detection from the
Honorable Bilks is likely to be still greater,
but in that case the republicans will prob
ably profit to some extent
It is difficult to say what the effect will
be in the interior, but it can hardly
fail to be disastrous to the Honor
able Bilks. The Chronicle has been
head and front Of that organization.
1t called the party into being, organized it
and has championed it in and out of season,
and it can hardly be otherwise than that
the elimination of the bitter political war
it has waged in assassination will result in
great damage to the prospects of the party
throughout the State.
| INDIGNATION IN THE INTERIOR.
Such advices as have been received from
the interior show the existence of degree
of indignation only second to that evinced
in this city. At the workingmen's head
| quarters they are in constant receipt OF
offers from interior towns Of men and arms
to assist in executing vengeance on the
De Youngs.
| = KEARNEY HEADS THE woRKISGMEy.
| Kearney arrived on the Vallejo boat this
evening. At the wharf he was met by "a
crowd of several thousand, who received
| their leader with an almost frantic exhib-
| ton of Joy. The workingmen's military
companies, to the number of 160 men, with
rifles and fixed bayonets, were on hand as
an escort. With Kearney at their head the
procession moved up Market street for the
sand lots, filling the street for several
blocks and making the air ring with cheers
for Kearney and cries of "Hang De Young. -
VENGEANCE WILL BE TAKEN.
