The Mexican authorities want the
Apache chief Geronimo, who recently
surrendered to United States troops on
Mexican soil. It is also reportet that
the attack on the Indian scouts and the
subsequent killing of Capt. Crawford
was premiditated, and that the Mexicans
had for sometime been waiting for q
favorable opportunity to make an
attack on the United States troops
operating against the hostiles in Next
co. The greasers are probably itching
for another spanking from Uncle Sam.

The Ohio legislative committee in
vestigating the Cincinnati election
frauds have made some startling dis
closures. An ex-policeman appeared
before the committee and gave testi-
mony duplicating number of promi,
nent Democrats of ballot box stuffing.
Republican tickets by the hundreds
were taken out, of the ballot boxes and
replaced by Democratic tickets, and,
if this man tells the truth, the whole
scheme was concocted in the Office of
the Cincinnati Enquirer, the leading
Democratic daily.

On our trip to Wolthineton last
week, we had the pleasure of putting
up will, our friend and cOmrade, r. l..
Erskine near Round Lake station. He
is running quite an extensive stock
farm and will keep over about ninety
head of cattle this winter. 1t is several
years since he turned his attention TO
raising blooded stock, and a visit to his
premises, and looking over his fire herd
of cows and young cattle will convince
anyone that he is succeeding admirably.
The species of short horn ..hicil lie has
are noted for great mixers; and we saw
the proof-he had several fresh cows
that each nearly filed twelve quart
pail, and without extra feed from that
gathered on the prairie. Mr.. Erskine,
like many others. got hamperpd with
debts during the grasshopper times;
but he is now fairly on his legs again
and is buying more land to keep pace
with his growing herd, and onward
march on the highway q: prosperity.
With the exception of few months
this season. he and his family have done
all the work-all hands bearing lively
and willing hand.

TIE STRIKE.

The strike still continues TO be
and will be the general theme of
conversation until settlement is
arrived at. When it will be Is yet
to be determined IN the future. 1t
seems from the dispatches in Sat
urday's papers that the grlevionces
on the Texas Pacific growing out
of the discharge of one Hall have
been referred to the United States
court for settlement and will prob
ably be adjusted in the near fu-
ture. Mr.. Hoxie, wee president
of the Missouri Pacific railroad,
declines to enter into 4 formal
conference with General Master
Workman Powdprly ofthe knights
of Labor on the pending strike,
though he exp resses a willingness
to confer with Mr.. Powderly or
any Intelllge mt getlemen as indI-
viduals. Mr.. Hoxie says the
knights of Labor as an organiza-
ton have acted in bad faith with
his company, and that any agree
ment made now is liable to be
broken again at any time and for
any trivial cause. Mr., Hoxle
claims that before the present
strike there was no differences OK
isting between the Missouri Pacfc
and the knights of Labor that the
trouble was with another company
over which his company had no
control. The Missouri Pacific is
at all times ready to meet its en-
ployes and hear and adjust any md
all differences amicably and tairly.
He refuses to deal with the knights
of Labor as an organization. His
determination seems TO be maj
and it now remains TO be seen
whether the Missouri Pacific rail
way company will manage its bust
ness, or whether its business is to
be managed by the Knights of La
Dor, as an organization. This
makes a direct issue and it remains
to be seen whether the conserva-
tive element of the population will
support them or the Knights. So
far as the expression of public
opinion goes in Texas it is oppo-
IsItlon to the Knights, whose action
has been arbitrary.

THE ISSUE.

II S06luS lIdG an NV ShOA 20 -
settle the present great strike have
resulted in nothing. The sugges
tions of the governors of Kansas
and Missouri have been rejected by
the Knights of Labor, who as q
body accuse the governors and
vice-president Hoxie of acting in
bad faith. The issue made is this:
The Knights declare they will not
return to work until recognized as
a body and officially treated with
by the Gould lines. Mr.. Hoxie
for the Gould lines says he will
not recognize the knights. Thus
the matter stands and both sides
seem determined. In the mean
time commerce is completely
paralyzed and manufacturing in
dustries are coming to a dead halt.
Thousands working men are out
of employment because there is
nothing for them to do, and day
by day the situation becomes more
and more alarming and may result
in conflict at arms in some quar-
tiers. The right of labor to organ
ize for selt-protection is univer-
sally admitted, but if the opinions
expressed at the various citizens
meetings held in Texas be any IN
dex TO public opinion the strikers
have lost the sympathy of the
general public. The direct point
made in the present strike is, shall
labor control capitol and dictate
the management OF railroads and
other corporations and take, as has
been done. forcible possession of
corporation property, or will the
corporations and railways be per-
mitted to manage their business in
the future as they have in the past.
If q secret organization has the
right to dictate the management OF
a large corporation, it has IN equal
right to do so for a small one and
may even decend to the manage
ment of individual enterprises,
however small. The question at
issue between the Knights of La
Dor and the railways seem to have
been swallowed up by the strike
which involves all the industries
of several states and a territory.
Reason seems to have lost its sway
and the only object now in view to
the Knights is the one of bringing
the railways to terms. The ques.
ton presented to the people is,
seemingly, shall we be governed
by reason, law and order and have
property protected or shall we be
governed by a secret organization
that is without responsibility to
any one but itself. 1t is to be
hoped that the present differences
will be speedily and amicably adj
iusted on such a basis as to pre-
vent a recurrence of them in the
near future. The American pe0.
pie are eminently conservative
and have keen sense of justice,
and it may be taken for granted
thai labor will never be oppressed
so long as VIC have a free ballot in
the United States. ReSson and
common sense must eventuaiiy
reign.

The Austin Statesman says from
the present temper of the public
mind, as evinced by meetings
throughout the state, it is likely
the next legislature viii enact
laws striking at the root of the
present trouble. 1t thinks the
State of Texas, if public opinion
has been correctly reflected by
resolutions adopted at recent
meetings, hardly desires to take
the chances of such another deal
as the present.
