pockets Of thousands, in many cases,
while the profit is retained by a for
tunate few.
High rates Of interest, and the low
price Of labor cause most of the trou-
bles that disturb our social life, and
surely this can be remedied without
resort TO violence. The liberties Of
the people have not been so serious
ly impaired as TO justify the ultima
ratio Of revolution. And since the
American people carry everything
into politics, this matter Of wealth
accumulation and increasing inn
poverishment should be made the
main issue Of the campaign and not
aprotective tariff.
The talk is common in working
mems assemblies that all this tariff
talk is simply a dust raised to blind
peoples eyes. With 6O,OO0,OOO peo-
pie to supply with necessaries, and
an export trade of but four per cent
Of our product, a high or low tariff
is Of comparative unimportance.
This country could live if our ports
of entry were all walled in, and not
a skiR load Of goods came TO or left
our shores. The tariff policy is not |
an issue, because the difference be |
tween the Mills bill and the bill |
by the republican senators
Is merely one Of detail-a question
)f more or less revision on certain
schedule articles.
In answer to our correspondents
question we have but TO say that
whatever rights the people Of this
country desire TO vindicate, we be-
ieye may be recovered without viO-
encc. That article of the green
packer faith, which favors the use of
/ certain portion Of the public money
n oans TO the indebted class at
nominal interest, we believe is
worthy Of consideration. The wages
can only be replaced by the
Ian Of limited partnerships, now
working so successfully in England. i,
'hese are social questions, but the ,
id Of government might beinvoked A.,
D apply the proper remedies.

there is steady, healthy growth of
immigration in that great region
that exceeds in area the Willamette
valley. Its meadow and grain land,
stock range, timber and mineral
resources are very great. The har-

to cattle, because of the

SOCIAL INJUSTICE.
Can Wrong be Righted without q
Resort to Violenee2

ED. CAPITAL JOURNAL II notice
an article in your paper now and
then that makes a lover of even
handed justice feel there is a future.
You are not content with merely
political buncombe. You would
confer a favor on at least one so
journer in this vale IL you would
point out some one instance where a
people, having lost their rights, ever
recovered them without resort to
violence. If such an instance is on
record, it would be a guide to us, as
an intelligent, law-abiding people,
in adjusting the differences that
agitate society, and in solving the
great labor and capital problem. If
this menacing cause Oftrouble cannot
be removed by constitutional means,
how is theadjustment to be brought
about? TOwhat forms of violence
this social injustice may lead, l have
found none with the sagacity to
foretell. But we all know it is
part Of the moral code that a ma
tional wrong brings on the heads of
the people retributive justice.
Few of us believed, one year prior
to the firing on Fort Sumter, that
the threatened rebellion would as
sert itself in arms. Yet the integ-
rity of our country was menaced, |
and when President Lincoln called !
Tor 10000 volunteers, he was ridiculed
md abused for employing so large a
orce for 80 small n cause Much has
1een said, but very little done toward
change of our public policy. Spec
al legislation is doing much to irri-
ate the popular mind. The poverty
stricken citizen is a common crimi-
lal under the law, while those who
re entrusted with the handling of
he nations wealth and remove to
'anada with what they can tilch of
B, are generally rewarded with inn
lunity. 1t would be safer if our
ldicial system dealt out proportion
te penalties to all classes of Offend

The principal California creditors are the

and winning he second fail In the same
time as before-6 minutes 20 seconds.
Four broad shouldered policemen took
up positions at as many corners of the
platform when time was called for the
third bout. Lewis came up smiling.
Wannop was hot s.Ld ratified and his
right knee WAS bruised and Bleeding
from the effect of the fall in the previous
bout. He Went at Lewis as though he
intended to pick him up and throw him
over the ropes, but the "Strangler'' by a
left movement secured a grapevine. This
he quickly changed into a shou1der.lock,
and in just one minute from the time the
men touched cath other the Englishman
was fat on the ground and the
~"Strangler'' was the victor. The crowd
cheered itself hoarse. Lewis vaulted
lightly over the ropes. The Englishman
descended the stairs with a paralyzed
look or his face, as if he didn't know
what had struck him, and the match was
over. Hundreds of the spectators waited
outside in the torrents and made the
welkin ring when Lewis appeared.
John ]. Kline, OF Beloit, who was
Wannop's trainer, e~mphatically denies
that the Englishman was under the in
fluence of liquor, and says that he was in
bed all the afternoon up to within two
hours of the match. This, however, is
contradicted by certain bartenders in
Clark street saloons, who assert that they
saw him drinking at intervals during the
afternoon. Tit amount of money which
changed hands ON the match is estimated
at $50, 600, $4,000 of which was bet in one
saloon between 6 and Z o'clock in the
evening. Nearly all of the bets were
even money, whatever advantage there
was being in favor of the Englishman.

March Railwrx Accidents.

NEW York, May SIN the month of
March, the Railroad Gazette reports,
there was q total of 172 railroad acct
dents in this country, in which 85 per-
sons We're killed and Gil injured, The
record shows that there Were thirty-six
collisions. In the collisions fifteen were
killed, nine of the number being engineers
and firemen. The fatality in derailments
was unusually large, sixty six persons
having been thus killed. Twelve of the
derailments were caused by striking cat
tie, and twelve by snow and ice. The
marked features of the month were the
Observation-Disclosures in which twenty-five
persons We're killed, and the great storms
in the eastern and middle states. Indiana
roads seem to have been quite exempt
from accidents. But four occurred within
the state, and but two on Indianapolis
roads. The Pennsylvania, east of Pitts
burg, seems to have suffered more than
any other road, which was largely due to
the four days Of blizzard it encountered.

Over 5000 Missing Cars.

SAN FRANCISCO, May S.-some idea of
the confusion into which r~ailroading has
fallen, owing to the enormous pressure
OF business in southern California, may
be gained from the fact that 3 900 delayed
freight cars on the Atchjson system have
been found at Los Angeles, San Diego
and other points. A short time ago H.
r. Irving, general superintendent of the
Atchison dTopaka, started out to Cali
fornia to trace missing cars. The rolling
stock was greatly reduced and more
freight cars were urgently needed. He
spent several weeks in southern Cali
fornia. He said he kept a careful ac-
count of the Atchison freight cars that
he found stalled at various points, and it
amounted to the extraordinary number
of 8, 800.
