A Cheerful Set.

FORT WORTH, Tex. March 16.-
The Knights of labor have the up
per hand here. clearinghouse
and hotels which accommodate
men who take the place of strikers
are boycotted. Even the butchers
refuse to sell them meat. All this
is true, yet the sentiment of the
people is against the strikers, but
the business men are afraid of a
boycott. John Tagart, boarding
house keeper, was boycotted yes
terday. The waterman from whom
he has been purchasing his supply
of drinking water refused to sell
to him and he has to 60 two
miles to secure water. His land
lord, one of the richest citizens of
Fort Worth. has ordered him to
vacate his house. Yesterday poison
was thrown into Targart's water
barrel and one married woman and
two little girls were poisoned and
now lay in a critical condition.
The case cited above is the worst
yet reported, but there are others
nearly as damnable. People here
are afraid to call their souls their
own.

THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR.

This organization is fast bccom-
ing unpopular among the business
community. Thinking that they
arc very powerful, they threaten to
stop all the railroads in the country
unless their demands are granted.
For downright square cut cheek,
the Knights of Labor take the cake.
They call on the authorities to
compel the railroads TO run trains
or forfeit their charters, and they
stand ready to stop any train that
attemps TO move, and say fatty
that trains shall not run. 1t is the
business of the authorities to pro-
tect the. trains and to see that or
gained or unorganized bodies of
men, do not interfere with the
trains.
Attempts to prevent the running
of trains should be severely dealt
with. Half of Texas is on starva-
ton rations now, and all because
the Knights of Labor will not allow
trains to run. The Knights say
the railroad authorities are to
blame for this, but that is noneense.
The railroad people are willing and
anxious to run trains but the
Knights won't let them. Because
the railroad authorities refuse to
accede to the demands of the
Knights, trains are not permitted
to run. Any child can see that the
knights are the ones to blame.
Their demands may be just, which
is a violent assumption, but that
has nothing to do with the blame
for not running trains.
The Knights are antagonizing
capital, and they are resorting to
means to accomplish their ends
that condemns them and their or.
ganization. The only effective way
to deal with them is to adopt the
plan of the Champion Reaper
Works, and employ no one who il
member of the order. The issue
is bound to come, the sooner the
better. Force it, and force il
home, to the bitter end.

Badly Needed.

Louisiana needs some railroad
legislation, and needs it badly.
There is not a State in the Union
nor a country on earth, where the
private citizen is so absolutely
at the mercy of railroads, as re-
CARDS his rights of property. as in
this State. 1t is to be hoped that
the legislature soon to meet will
take this matter in hand.-Demo-
cratic Review.
The TIMES is glad to have such
good company as the Review in
this matter.

Excitement in Texas.

Great excitement has been
caused in the vicinity of Paris.

of Mr.. ]. 4. Corley, who was so
helpless he could not turn in bed,
or rase his head, everybody said
he was dying of Consumption. A
trial bottle of DR.. Kings New Dis
covery was sent him. Finding re-
lief, he bought large bottle and a
box of DR.. Kings New Life Pills;

boxes of Pills and two bottles of

had gained in flesh thirty-six
pounds.
