At that moment he trembled, touched
my arm, and bid me look across the room.
There stood Frank and Mrs. Vernay-
she with the jeweled snake twisted in her
hair, he with another, bracelet of hers,
clasped around his wrists; some joke had
passed between them, and she had slipped
t on.
"My dear Kenneth, these are fancies,
nothing but fancies," said; for his man.

anything more dangerous than boyish

"Lilithr' was all he said.
''Tel me how did you guess her
name?'
SIT came to me as that command came,
when I saw her WRITE" he replied. Then
crossing the room he asked the beauty
to dance, taking her away from Frank.
Ibeleve bets passed between the men
at the Torremouth Clubs as to which Of
the brothers would marry beautiful Mrs.
Vernay. I confess I wondered myself
whether Kenneth would relinquish his
noble schemes and marry like any other
ordinary mortal. I rarely saw him with
out Mrs. Venay. He rode with her,
drove with her, spent long hours in her
pretty drawing room, and walked with
her on the esplanade. asked him what

DEAR BROTHER You will see from

Wednesday twenty-third) and II
o'clock same date fonnd us shut out
from liberty, and confined within the
dlngy walls of miserable place denom-
mated a county Jail. Four of US, mem
bers of local executive board, were tried
together. The trial lasted three days
and the jury, after being out for nine
teen hours, returned verdict finding us
guilty of an attempt co commit a mis-
demeanor." According to the laws Of
this state the punishment for same Of
fense is a fine of not more than $lOO nor
less than $40, and county Jail for not
more than forty-fve days nor less than
ten days.
The sentence imposed upon us is a
fine of 500 and also thirty days in Jail.
The costs in the case of the four amount
to over $500. From this you may imag-
inc something of the condition; al
though there exists some strong preju-
dice against us the public generally
what we have been able to learn-does
not approve the severity of the punish
ment infi cted upon US. After sentence
was pronounced the prosecuting attOr
ney made a strong plea to the court to
have Jail sentence suspended, but to no
avail as the Judge is strongly prejudiCed,
which fact was apparent throughout our
trial.

the situation is most dlscouraging, l feel
encouraged by the hope that it will re-
dound to the interest of tn cause we are

idle, and therefore rightfully discon-
tented, were considerably excited by the
recent outbreak In Chicago, the most
complete quiet and order reigned;
That upon that occasion the police au-
thoritles thought it necessary to keep
their men up all night on special duty,
step which may have appeared to
them necessary, but which BETRAYED a
most uncomplimentary estimate of the
good sense of the public in general, and
of your petitioners in particular
That it might have been expected
that the proceedings of that night would
have convinced the police authorities
of the uselessness of maintaining a
threatening attitude towards the public
That upon the contrary they selected
the very day which we sanctify to eel
ebration of the memories of our brothers
who fell fighting for liberty to menace
US with prospective military autocracv,
heading the procession with 200 men
specially armed with force of Winches-
ter rifles;
That your petitioners believe that
both the spirit and the letter of the laws
under which they live agree in declaring
that there shall be no such thing per-
mitted in this country as standing
army, save for defense against foreign
invasion;
hat this is a gross attempt to impose
standing army on the country, con-
trary to the spirit of our laws, to enforce
and not to evade which W. support the
police with our labor;
That, in this particular instance, insult
has been added to injury by the fact that
This budding army was trained in VIII at

chanics' Pavilion;
That your petitioners have no quarrel
with the main body of the police, who
are merely acting under orders, but that
your petitioners feel perfectly justified
in stating that the police authoriti es are
notoriously corrupt, and that the en-
trusting ofsuch body with the rule of
the sword threatens most seriously the
future peace and liberties of the state
For e foregoing reasons your petit
TONERS appeal to your Excellency, be-
lievlng that, as distinguished citizen of

try, you cannot fail to appreciate the
dangers which such arbitrary measures
are likely to bring upon the state, and

steps necessary to set on foot an inyesti-
cation into the legality of the action
taken by the 8-caled police authorities

The Labor enquirer., 1886-07-03

To His Excellency the Governor of the State
of California the humble petition of the
Representative Council of Federated Trades
and Labor Organizations Of the Pacific
Coast presents
That for many years past the produC-
ing classes (since class they unforLu-
nately are) of the Pacific coast generally
and of San Francisco in particular, have
been the prey Of illegal Chinese and
convict labor competition, and of divers
other inIustiCes inflicted by the money
power, which Is also unfortunately a
class with interests and caste prejudices
which separate it from the masses of the
people;
That the suffering imposed rpon them
by such iniustlces has reached such a
climax that, according to the Daily Alta
California which is peculiarly the organ
of the money power in San Francisco,
The number of men out cf work in that
city alone during the past winter was
10000. That notwithstanding such
tremendous fact as the one last men
toned and notwithstanding the fact that
for years the petitions and representa-
tions made time and again to those who
are presumed to be their public SER
wants have been of little or no av all IN
ameliorating their lot, the people Of the
coast generally, and of San Francisco in
particular, have shown determination
to abstain from violence, which affords
striking contrast to the disorders
which have during the past two years
shaken the other leading cities of this
and other civilized countries
That in pursuance of their de termina
ton to abstain from, and themselves to
restrain violence, the producing classes
have, during the past year in particular,
been lavish of tn eir time, money aud
vital energies, in the endeavor 10 organ
ize labor thoroughly;
That this has been done with the most
purely generous motives, viz: with a
full appreciation of the fact that when,
and only when labor is thoroughly or
ganized, will it be possible to prevent
men, rendered desperate by want, from
| resortlng to the measures of despair
That this fact is recognized by all
earnest thinkers, and that signal illus
tration of the truth of such fact was
afforded by the first public demons ira
ton WHICH your petitioners made on the
eleventh of last month;
That upon that occasion your peti-
TONERS marched some 1900 men
through the streets of San Francisco,
and that, though, such procession took
place at time when the cumpulsorilY

business men can see readily, that COM
petitor with unlimited facilities and cap
ital, who pays no wages and no taxes,
must infallibly fix the market price, and
anyone foolish enough to enter the mar
ket against him must go to the wall.
The state by It's prison MANAGEMENT is
in direct conflict with quarrymen, stone
cutters, tanners, harnessmakers, furni-
ture-workers, and sash, door and blind
manufacturers, and in our former COM
munication, to which we beg leave to
refer you, we show by the testimony of
employers and employees engaged in
these industries, that they are well-nigh
destroyed, and that large numbers of
men skilled in these trades are COM
PEELED to seek employment as farm
hands, in competition even with Chi
nese, to earn an honest livelihood. The
national government has armed vessels
with soldiers and sailors continuous
Gordon along our seacoasts, lakes and riY-
ers, and an army of oficeholders to col
lect the customs duties and enforce the
revenue laws. 1t is and has been its
settled policy to impose tax upon all
manufactured articles made in foreign
countries which can compete in the
home market with like articles made at
home, and all for the produc ion of home
industries. That the American pro
ducer, with his immeasurable advan-
tages of soil and climate. shall not come
into competition with the cheap labor
of foreign countrie ). Our own California
woods and wines and other products are
thus protected, and we the cons umers
cheerfully pay the enhanced price for
these commodities for the general good,
submit to this all l-pervading tax willingly
for Its recognized benefit to the commu-
nifty at large. and must we under
stand that California, IN many respects
the most favored of all the states of the
Union, persists in the settled pursuit of
that cruel policy which places the me-
ChaniC in competition with the convict,
and measures the recompense of the free
workmen by the cost of maintaing
prisoner.
Many of US have been allied with the
political partY-+o which you belong, and
have faithfully followed its fortunes
through wears of defeat and disaster be-
cause we had faith in it as the organiza-
ton in which rested the safety of free
institutions and all the hopes of the peo
pie, and we respectfully suggest that as
the representative of that party you
have an opportunity which falls to the
lot of few men of placing it emphatically
on record as the protector of the welfare
of the people. Your decision, if favor
able to US, will settlegihe matter so far
as this state is concerned (for the legis-
lature which should interfere to subvert
the policy inaugurated by you would be
universally execrated), and the produc-
ing classes of the state, liberated from
the paralyzlng competition of convict
labor, would always cherish in their
hearts grateful memory of the man
whose decisive action made them truly
free. Very respectfully,

The San Pedro club held meeting
last night at their hall on San Saba
street, with Otto SOlms, the president,
In the chair. The meeting was called to
order at $50, when Mr.. SOlms explained
the object of the meeting. lie said:
"Onicers and Members have called
you together tonight by notice IN the
papers, and am pleased to see SO many
have responded to the call, taking INTO
consideration the short notice you had.
Tomorrow evening the democrats OF
this city hold their primaries to elect

upon you the necessity of every man TO
go to the primary in the precinct 10
which he belongs, and at the same time
| would like to hear the opinion OF every
one present on the subjeCt-delegates or
no delegates to the convention"
A number OF speakers in their turn
took the floor, each one advocating
free-for-a all race. There was not one dis
senting voice in the assembly. Every
one seemed to be in the best Of humor,
and the cheers that went up could be
heard at the Main plaza.
Another list of new members was pre-
sented, TO be elected on next Wednes-
day. At this juncture MIR. Juan Bar
rera came into the hall, and was escort
ed to the speakers stand. Wheter from
remOrse of conscience or too much ring

terms, and told them to elect good men

District Court,

ri Pacific. the jury returned verdict
last evening, awarding plaintiff $4,000
damages. AS the times are hard and
business dull, the railroads had better
keep sharp look out for passengers
with breakable legs.
To-day being the day set apart for mo-
lions, the time Of the court was exclu-
sively occupied in deciding motions in
pending cases. The parties In about ten
cases were, at the instance of the dis
trict clerk, required to give security for
costs, and in default of giving such Sc
curity, their cases will be dismissed.

overruled, and notice of appeal given.
