The Bloody Stage of the Labor
Troubles.

Inc BioOuy stage of the La Dor
Troubles.
The Southwestern labor troubles are
growing more serious. Rifles and pistols
were used with deadly effect on Friday
at East st. Louis and Little Rock. Half
dozen or more men were killed and
several were severely wounded. In East
ST. Louis, had it not been for the extra
ordinary exertions of leading knights of
Labor there would have been, doubtless,
a great riot, and many more persons
would have been killed and a larger
amount OF property destroyed. Although
the mob spirit was checked soon after the
fatal shooting occurred in East st. Louis,
the property Of the railroads suffered
severely during Friday night. The torch
was applied to cars wherever it could be
with safety.
The wanton destruction Of property
may crafty a feeling OF revenge but it
can hardly do the cause of the strikers
any good. If the railroad companies.
which are at war with the Knights of
Labor, at any time felt a disposition to
make concessions for the sake Of securing
peace it is probable that they have that
disposition no longer. Ifthey now make
concessions 1t will be because they are
forced to do so.
The Knights OF Labor blame JAY Gould
for the East st. Louis slaughter, and
quote advertisements to show that he en-
gaged desperate and irresponsible men 90
protect mis- property against strikers. 1t
is, doubtless, true that he sought men as
Deputy Marshals who have Ii tie regard for
human lite, and he got the kind Of men be
wanted, but, as a matter OF fact, is Jay
Gould so much 10 blame as the State and
city authorities? He is entitled to have
his property protected, and it is the duty
OF the Governor TO give him all the force
be needs to conduct mis- business in the
face OF lawless opposition. The Governor
OF Illinois appears to nave hesitated about
calling out the militia too long. Had he
given the protection the railroads asked
for sooner 1t is probable that the unau.
thorized fatal shooting by the Deputy
Marshals would have been averted.
II bad been evident for several DAYS
that the labor troubles In the Southwest
would not be settled without bloodshed.
Although the laws OF tae knights of La.
Dor do not permit them TO engage In riot
Gus demonstrations and to commit law.
less acts, they have done these things.
and doubtless will continue to do them
when they cannot accomplish their pur-
poses by peaceable means. Such acts are
not countenanced by the better element
OF the Knights, nor by those OF the leaders
who aim to promote the best interests OF
the. organization, but that does not lessen
the responsibility Of the Knights for their
lawlessness.
If the Deputy Marshals fired upon the
crowd except in defense OF their lives,
they ought TO be made to suffer the pun
ishment provided for their crime, but the
wrongful act OF the Msrshsls cannot be
plead by the Knights as an excuse for de
stroying the property Of the railroads.
The Knights complain that the railroads
