EVICTION IN IOWA.
Settlers on Des Moines River Land
Hustled Out I'm the Irish style.

Mason CITY, Iowa, Nov. 22--one hundred
more writs of eiectment we're served on settlers
on the Des Moines river lands yesterday. The
settlers were driven out of their homes, their
effects piled up in the roads, and their doors
and windows barred against them. The land
company makes no compromises, and when the
settlers make oyertures TO buy their land. rs
many of them are doing, they are charged
from SIC to s25 per acre. Trouble has thus
far been happily averted, but the settlers
around Lehigh have formed a union with p. s.
Boynton as their president. IL is expected
that this union will issue a circular outlining
their grievances and making known their in
tentions.

HARRINGTON WILL NOT PAY.
Government Must Seize His Paper and
Run it If it Wants to Collect the Fine.

Special Cable Dispatch TO TIE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Nov. 22.-Mr. Edward Harrington
is determined not to pay the fine imposed on
him by Judge Hannen. A difficult question
arises as to whether the judges have power to
levy on his property in Ireland. The prevail
ing opinion seems to be in the affirmative. but
practically Mr.. Harrington's sole property is in
his copyright in the Merry Sentinel, and it
would be difficult for a nominee of the govern
ment to seize nationalist's paper and carry on
its publication

An Important Interest Decision.

LINCOLN, NEB.. Nov. 22.-The case of the
Schuier national bank against John c. Boiling,
just decided in the Supreme Court, is of unusual
interest to national banks generally. Boiling
brought suit under sections 5l97 and 5lss. T. s.
Revised Statutes. TO recover an amount of usu-
rious interest paid. The court held that the
state courts OF record had jurisdiction; that
where usurious interest is taken from the face
OF a note by a national bank it can recover only
the face of the note less the usurious interest
and that where usurious interest has been paid
in advance the borrower can recover double
the amount of interest so paid.

THE ST. PAUL COMING.

The railroad scheme which is out
lined in our telegraphic columns this
morning, and to which there has al
ready been reference in THE HERALD. is
one which inspires confidence at the
very outset. The Chicago. Milwaukee
& st. Paul is not paper company. 1t
Is an immensely big, and immensely
rich company, with a railroad system
extending over thousands of miles of
territory. The northwest is we'll COW
cred by the st. Paul." which must
naturally come west for its share OF the
great traffic which the country this
side of the Missouri is producing,
and some of the competitors
of this road are already across
the river and far out west,
The Burlington is at Desver, and
looking westward; the Rock-Islaud
is fast approaching Denver; the North
western is within 400 miles of Salt Lake;
the Santa-Fe, which is already across
the continent, is about to become a
competitor with the st. Paul by enter
ing chicago. Thus, it is seen that the
st. Paul is forced into the field. or it
must be content with virtually local
business.
The c. NJ. & st. P. is not only a pro-
gres5iYe, but is a keen, active, rustling
roai. 1t is not unmindful Of oppor-
tunities, and knows how to take advan-
tage of circumstances. Further
more, it is one of the most
solid concerns in America. 1t was
built economically and with the cheap
money, which its late head, Alexander
Mitchell, was able to obtain in Europe
on his own terms. Its debt is COM
parativeiy small, and its earnings
enormous, the profits being largely in
vested in extensions and new lines.
Nothing is more reasonable or natura l
than that the St. Paul should reach out
for the Pacific Coast, and if it comes it
will come by the route mapped out in
the Chicago telegram. Self-protection
and selt-preaervation demand this ad-
vance.
If the news shall prove correct, we
will not De surprised if Salt lake
welcomes the advent OF the St Paul
before it does that OF any other
road now coming in this direction, The
st. Paulis in better condition financially
than any of the others, and can obtain
cheaper money than the others. Infor-
nation confirmatory of the Iepert else
where will be anxiously awaited by Salt

cannot be regarded otherwise than as
the comaaon and dangerous enemy.
The movement is q proper one, and
should succeed. Its failure would be
disastrous 10 enterprise, for capital is
becoming thoroughly alarmed at the
naughty assumptions of organized
labor, and will not invest in enterprises
10 be controlled by unreasonable unions.
The success of this assertion of indi-
vidual right will also be beneficial 30 the
honest workingman who is willing to do
fair days pay, and who labors with
his hands instead Of his tongue. Unions
are too often mere striking
machines, guided and directed by men
who earn their bread not by
the sweat of their brows, but by squeez-
ing monthly dues from their hard
working dupes When the intelligent
workingmau has the privilege, as he
has the right, to labor for such pay as
he can oh an, he will not strike
until he can better himself, and cease
work for weeks or months in a vain
effort to compel the employer to come
to his terms. The unions bring to
their members more pain than pleasure,
and cause more harm than good.
