The massacre at East st. Louis yesterday
was marked by the features which usually
characterize affairs of the kind Primarily
the state authorities of Illinois are to blame for
not promptly furnishing force sufficient TO
maintain order when called on To do so, with
notice OF the threatening state OF affairs. In
the second place, a fatal mistake was made in
placing firearms in the hands of unframed and
unorganiZed men, without cool headed and eX-
Perlenced leaders to control their movements
and prevent them from becoming a worse mob
than the they were expected to hold in
check. The natural result OF these two mex
cusabie plumbers followed. Innocent people,
IA nowise connected with tine disturbance,
were killed, as they usually are under such cir
CGfnstanceS. IL followed, too, as it generally
does in cases OF the Kind. that men having no
grievance in connection with it and with moth
Ing at stake in the issues involved were busiiy
engaged in melting the crowd 10 destroy prop
erty and sacrifice more lives. To their honor
be it said, the leading members of the Knights
OF Labor did much TO restore order and pre-
vent further bIoodshed, and it is greatly to the
credit of the strikers themselves that they COM
mitted no direct overt act in this instance to
bring about the collision. Nevertheless the
world will hold them morally responsible for
the deplorable outcome of troubles which had
their beginning elsewhere and at another
time. 1t happens in this instance, to be sure,
that those charged with enforcing the laws
were the ones to violate them and TO bring
about precisely what they were expected to
prevent. There appears to have been no just
cause for their action, and they must pay the
penalty for their unwaTranted proceeding
Back of all this, however, lies the great and
stern principle that the laws of the country
must be enforced, and the right of the citizen
to peacably follow his CHOSEN pursuit must be
maintained. This is point that right-minded
and patriotic people are not likely to lose sight
OF. Where real grounds for differences exist
aud the usual course of law is too slow and I'M
certain in its application to them, they can
easily be removed by the wise, quiet and
speedy process of arbitration, and this method
should be resorted To rather than an appeal to
brute force by either side of the question at
issue.

City Primary.

The result of the Primary held in tie
city on Tuesday, was just what might
have been expected under the circum-
stances. 1t was ordered after it had been
generally understood for weeks that party
lines would not be drawn, and in opposi-
ton to the wishes of majority Of the
Democratic voters.
The polls were open from o'clock in
the morning until S clock p. m, and with
the most desperate efforts on the part OF
the primary managers. less than half of
the Votes pollrd for Filz Lee last fall were
gathered in. Besides the Council, there
was no contest in the Primary. except for
the Office OF City Attorney, the candidates
being Messrs. A. c. BraXton and r. p.
Bell
But for that rivalry the total vote would
not have reached 500. AS it was, a num-
Der who participated and helped to swell
the meagre aggregate went In With the

Now let every farmer in the vicinity put
his shoulder to the wheel and do all in his
power to help On the enterprise and we
predict satisfactory results for all con-
cerned. 1t now behooves Messrs. Parkins,
Jordan & Parkins and the, people of the
hill country OF Jndea to see to it that steps
are taken at once toward building a good
road from that section to TT. Defiance.
There is no part of the county where q
few hundred dollars can be invested in
road building to better advantage than i'll
this nelghborhood land we cannot see why
the Judeans, who are generally so wide
awake to their interests, have suffered so
much Inconvenience for so long without
bestiring themselves to the utmost for
relief.
The recent heavy rains have consider
ably damaged many Of the corn fields of
this vicinity, but the damage will be more
than compensated for in the fine crop of
hay which is almost assured. Wheat and
other small grain is also looking well.
