NE DOOM az THE RoYcorr.

Theconsequences of the abuse OF power
were never more plainly exemplded than
in the public feeling OF Texas IN opposi-
ton to the boycott, for the tendency OF
public opinion in this state is too plain
20 be mistaken. In nearly all the resolu-
tons passed in relation TO the strike It is
plainly to be seen that the people are
moved in large measure By antagonlsms
to bolcotting whichhAd no relation what
ever to the present railroad situation. 1t
will be observed that no community has
yet spoken in opposition to the right of
men TO organize and to do all things that
seem to tnem good until they reach that
point In the exercise of their own rights
when they assail the rights Ui other men.
Opposition to the boycotting ani iutlm-
idation practlced In come ,tlon with the
strike has been intensified by the recol-
lection otother boycotts throughout the
communities of the state. The singular
spectacle has been presented in a very
large number OF towns, Of men
claiming for themselves rights which
they denied TO others. This is
the very essence Of kIug-craft, aud, under
whatever guise that claim is inside, it is

THE STRIKE.

| Inc strike came upon the public as a
clap of thunder from clear sky. There
had been, SO far as the public had been
appraised, no premonition to anyone of
the coming storm. Indeed, THE GAZETTE,
noticing the secrecy of it, was persuaded
to pay compliment to what at the time
seemed consummate management, even
while warning the strikers that secrecy
was danger, because the public is always
the tribunal In such cases, and no evil
dence had been adduced to incline that
tribunal to favorable opinion, for the peo-
pie knew not why or wherefore the strike
had taken place.
Time brought information, but it came
incoherently and in detached form, and
after the popular mind had begun to re-
sist secret methods in retardlny the
traffic OF the country, and after the rail-
roads had promulgated the causes from
the standpoint of the Texas & Pacific and
from tnat of the Missouri Pacific.
The explanation, or rather the explana-
tlops, of the strikers did not explain, be-
cause they came from different ii not
from conflicting standpoints within their
own membership. All that the public
knew was, first, that the men ON the
Texas Pacific had struck without assigned
reason, and that the men on the Missouri
Pacific had struck because the men on the
Texas Pacific had struck. What was pro-
nounced consummate management by
rhE GAZETTE, aud what was considered
by the public as strength, was only a
blunder, aud blunder evidently due to
mismanagement or misunderstanding on
the part of the Knights of Labor. The
GAzErrE took early occasion to say that
the strike was mistake, ana subsequent
developments more than justify rHe GA
zErrE's klndly-meant warning.
1t Is known now that the Knights of
Labor in Texas are divided in their
membership, and that two assemblies
have jurisdiction in the state, namely,
Nos, IS and l0l, the membership of lol
IN Texas being composed exclusively OF

THE German association of the turner

this Is a quotation:
With an audaclty Unprecedented in the his.
tory OF our country and as yet little appreciated
by the massea, We see the enemies to personal
liberty daily raise their heads higher and
higher. In multitude OF places all over our
beautiful land fahatical zealots give vent to
their hatred n. ainst free thought. They are
the bitter, uncomprouising enemies TO the
mode of life suited to our advanced civilization,
which enmity they express by everywhere en-
acting laws-for tho advancement of morality
as they 6ay--better adapted to the dark ages
than to our present time. They are totally
blind against the results of modern civilization /;
they do not care whit that by such doings
they expose our country, the most glorious
land on earth, the "home OF the free and the
brave" In the eyes OF all truly enlightened PEG.

THEE or four years ago the German
government passed a law to prohibit the
importation of American pork. The
Germans have habit Of eating half
cooked sausage, which often leads to the
introduction Of trichnn spiralis in their
bodies. Whenever case Of this kind
occurred it was laid to American meat,
Now the American hog Is yindicated.
Thirty or forty cases Of trichnosis are
reported in German village, and there
are said to be other cases in the country.
OF course, as no American pork has been
brought TO that country, the American
hog is guiltlcss OF this offense.
