The strikers remain firm in their

and the evident awakening of the au-
thoritIes to the gravity of the situation,
seemed to have a salutary effect on the
strikers. No violence was done either
to the compauy's property or its en-
ployes during yesterday. Last evening
Il crowd collected on Leonard-st. and
at various places along the north end
OF the cable line knots of men were
gathered. The patrol wagon took a
squad of men to the locality and the
crowds were dispersed. Some person
drove bolt into the slot rail near the
y. & NJ. crossing. but it only gave the
car u hard bump knocking the head
light out. No damage was done.
About Q o'clock crowd gathered at
tue corner of Fifth-ave. and South Di-
visson-st., but it was lamb like in be-
havior and . load Of patrolmen scared
them away. The turbulent element
seems cowed and no further violence il
anticipated. In the meantime tho

with unreIenting vigilance, and any
recurrence of the late troubles will be
met With sh arp Gnd decisive measures.

A DEATH sIEUGGLE.

We may have reached . new order Of
things IN political affairs, but no party
that has ever accomplished anything
permanent in this country has been
born among such maniAcal demonstra-
tons rs greeted the advent of the So
called Peoples Party" at Cincinnati.
IL was pandemouium itself that Wit
messed and greeted the new birth. 1t
was not even the enthusiasm OF well
regulated minds, but the outburst Of
fanatcism and crankiness. Free trade,
silver coinage ad libitum, legal tender
treasury notes IN abundance, and per
cert. loans upon "non-imperishable"
products and upon real estate form the
burden Of the demands OF this infant,
as was to be expected from the charac-
ter OF its parents. Prohibition was left
out As too stale for political fad and
too dry . subject for contemplation.
Universal suffrage was frozen out much
to the disgust Of some. A national ex-
ecutive committee of three was chosen,
but If those named from the other
States arc not ony better adapted to in
spire confidence than the Michigan
contingent, the committee cannot be
very effective. Ben Colvin, altogether
too we'll known; Sarah E. V. Emery,
quite well known, and John o. Seabel,
utterly unknown, represent Michigan,
and are expected to look after the in
fsnt's interests here. From the CON-
plexion of the new party it is evident
that it has fallen mainly under the
control of those whose first ann Is to
disrupt the Republican party. The
Michigan representatives, % far as
known, for the last decade or more,
have been bobbing in and out of every
organization that has Teen devised or
dreamed of, with so-called "reform"
proclivities. Their venom and spite
has ever been directed toward the Re-
publican party, and their every faculty
exercised to devise new terms of re-
proach to heap upon it. II Is a fight
to the death now. The only party of
definite principles, of true, patriotic,
progressive Americanism, is the Repub-
lican party, and this party must now
array itself for . terrible struggle
against the combined forces of Demo-
cratic nothingnsss and fanatic expert
mentation. 1t does not seem possible
that the intelligence of this country
will consent either to lapse into cold
apathy or to rush into fanatic extrava-
gances. Yet it is no time for the better
classes now to affect any Pharisaic
shrinking from politics. The fight is
on.
