The strikers are very much justified
in their present affair. The history OF
all strikes on the Gould lines is that
when a man strikes, he signs his own
discharge, which is only matter of
time. They should win once in while
just for the sake of the precedent, and
If they did not protest, one reduction
would follow another with great rapid
ity,

Gov. Pierce's Proclamation.

The following is the proclamation of
Gov. Pierce of Dakota:
To the people of Dakota: In recognition
of the universal sorrow at the death of Gen.
Grant, recommend that the day set apart
for the funeral be observed throughout the
territory by ceasing from ordinary business
pursuits, and that the people unite in testi-
flying their respect for the departed soldier,
the foremost citizen of his time. Such lives
are rare. Few men are permitted to render
such service, to gain so much renown, to
merit such distinction. In his victories the
people rejolced, in his misfortunes they sor-
rowed, in his death they mourn. Looking
back on career Of unexampled success, on
a record of surprising brilliancy, his great
est triumph came at the close of his years,
when a nation, forgetting its past differ
ences, bowed in sorrow around his bedside
and united in gracious tribute to his honor
and his name. Unconquerable in war,
magnanimous in victory, simple and unos-
tentatious in peace, he came close to the
hearts of the people, and to the people is
committed fitting observance of that day
when he shall be laid to rest with w Washing
ton and Lincoln enshrined like them in a
nations gratitude and nations love.
