Her Last Cry.

New York World.
One Of the saddest results Of the
swltchmen's strike is the death of Lizzie
Murray, slxteen-year-old girl, who died
yesterday Of shock. When the soldiers
Of the Twenty-seoond regiment charged
crowd Of stone-throwers on August rs
and shot Michael Broderick, Lizzie MUIR
ray was standing In the street.
She saw BrOderlck pursued by the sol
diers and watched the chase with terror
stricken face. She heard the soldiers
cry out TO Broderlck to halt and saw
soldier level his piece and fire at the fu-
gltive, who toppled over the fence bleed
ing and apparently dead.
The strain was too much for her and
she tainted. When she came to the hor-
rihed look seemed stamped on her face
and che screamed and appeared insane
with fright. She was taken home and
was seized with an attack Of Mysteries,
which continued for several days.
The best physicians in the city at
tended her, but she sank and heart fail
ure ended her life. Her nights were
hours Of horror to her, and she sank to
sleep only to spring up shrleklng, "The
soldiers! The soldlers!" Her last cry
was for mercy.

were apparently spelling for fight, the
justice Of the peace, Mr.. Glenn, appeared
on the platform, and commanded peace,
and the governor, Senator Perkins, and
Mr.. Beekman became seated; and Mr.,
King proceeded with his speech In the
even tenor Of his way, apparently not In
the least disturbed by the occurrence.
In this connection, 1t is but fair to say
that Sheriff Cook did no more than his
plain duty as chairman Of the county
central committee Of the Peoples party,
and did not propose to be bulldozed into
submission to an imposition Of this ma
ture upon the rights Of the people.
This episode in Kansas, believe, re-
cords the first instance Of the seating of a
governor and United States senator by q
justice of the peace, and if a Peoples
party justice Of the peace is able to seat
republican governor and United States
senator, what may we not reasonably ex-
pect from the action of the whole Peo-
ple's party on the 9th Of November, when
they shall record their judgment at the
bRllot.box. VOT pOpGli, vOT dei.

be learned and eloquent. When freight
rates are based on actual cost Of service
without partlAlity, as postal service, the
laborer will be worthy Of his hire, and ON
that no "Calamity howl" result; but
while freight rates are being based on
ton per mile rates and "what the tariff
will bear," we demand Iowa local rates,

Why We Howl.

To the Editor Of TRE ADVOCATE:
As a text on which to break into print
once more, an editorial of October 6 Kan
sas City Journal, Is quoted: "KanSas
has cleaned out the DaltonS. Now for
the other enemies Of the state-the
calamity howlers.'" That doctrine is
from republican authority, and to voters
of that faith this Is addressed. The
Daltons were a band Of robbers preylng
upon society, for whose capture a re-
ward was set, and they met extinction, as
will their polished cousins, the corporate
robbers. To the Daltons all Kansas was
calamity howler." To corporate right
worshipers all independents protesting at
being held up for double freight rates
and usury are "calamity hoWlers;" all
who set the price of personal sacrifice for
apprehension Of corporate bandits-that
prey upon productive society, are
" calamity howlers." The reward we
offer is equality Of opportunity to profit
by labor, and no corporate Doodle can
Withstand such incentive to action.
Though calamity hoWlers," we, the
PopullstS, own by divine right fran
chise of independence in result of neu-
trail labor under modern appliances
which must not continue being farmed
out to classes under corporate franchise
based on "Rll the tariff will bear" New
England citizens were calamity howl
ers" when the tea was thrown into Bos-
ton harbor. So were abolltionists when
they said negro slavery was wrong. We
are calamity howlers" when we show
that $1.13 per ton will transport all
freight any distance trade demands las 8
cents did a letter. and not reduce the
gross income Of railways one farthing.
The republican leaders shout "Stand
up for Kansas" but not word about the
100000 per year Of our wealth alb
Sorbed by excessive freight rates over
Iowa rates. They tell US freight rates
are not an issue in the west" The Issue
Is, Who killed Cock RoblnH and gave the
biggest pension? and how deep was the
sea that McGinty went to the bottom off
while the sleight-of-hand railway man.
ayers go through laborer'S pockets In the
west What relation to railway service
does Hon. John N. Thurston bear to the
party In power in Nebraska, Kansas, and
at Washington, d. c.? He Is now In
Kansas speaking to footing Of brass
bands on grand old party ideas. Does he
lose any Of bis Union Pacific salary, or is
he at work in his regular line Of duty on
railroadingl
In this connection, let me refer to q
matter OF some moment Clubs Of rail-
W1V employees are being formed. backed
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1892-10-19

covertly by railway managers, the pur-
pose Of which Is TO oppose the Peoples
party under gulSe Of projecting railway
wages. Those clubs will prove q boom
Orang, and gun more dangerous to the
managers at the bFeech than to US at the
muzzle, because 1t is false that we pro-
pose to lower operatives wages. The
fact ls, We propose TO reduce corrupting
expenses made by employers like Thurs
ton and Depew, placing such funds
among actual operatives Of transit. The
shipping public Is willing to pay all the
average gross charges now made, but We
howl at paying $27 tom tirSt-claSs
freight from Chicago to Kearney, and $S
a ton fourth-clsss from Omaha to Kear-
ney, when the average charge for the
United States, all tonnage, all class, Is
but $1.13 per ton. Employees clubs will
not be made up of fools, for good rail-
way men ara not built that way. Some
day Mr.. Railway Manager will repeat the
acts done when the B. s. N. engineers
were beaten by PinkertonS. He will try
to do In the west what was done at the
swltChmen'S strike ut Buffalo, where
criminals were melted to burn q few
cars that riot might be charged to the
strikers, and militia be employed at pub
lie expense TO defeat the laborer, while
the roads defy courts and law, holding
up price Of coal In combine. Form your
clubs. We can reason with them while
mingling one with another. We can show
them it is more desirable for them to
work for Uncle Sam than for sons-ln-
law TO rich men. Then these long. headed
schemers now eating cream out Of our
churns will turn their noses up for air,
while we pump facts on rallroading
based on equal charges to all into the
business public. The railway man en-
ployed In actual transit gets small wages,
and earns more than every dollar re-
celved, and Is an honor to his country;
while the railway officer employed in
politics and influencing Legislation, bias
ing or debauching executive officers,
state and national, draws prinCely salary,
and earns only contempt, even though he

THEY STOOD UP.


clIned to refer to the disturbance In La
bette county, the following is added to
the testimony against our stand up gov
ernoE and senator:
To the Editor Of THE ADVOCATE:
Mr.. s. s. King and Gov. Humphrey
were billed to speak at Montana, La
bette county, at the same time; and the
Peoples committee favored q joint dis
Cussion, which was agreed to by the re-
publican committee. When the time
arrived for the meeting, Mr.. Bsekman, Of
Arkansas City, one Of their sblest men,
appeared for Gov. Humphrey, and it was
stated, on what appeared good authority,
that In consequence of illness, Gov.
Humphrey could not be present, but
that Mr.. BeeKman would hold the dis
cussion in his stead. Mr.. Bsekman did
not desire to hold joint discussion, and
80 1t was agreed that each orator should
make an address, Mr.. Bsekman was to
open with one hour and King was to fol-
low with one and half hours, and Mr..
Beekman was then to have a half hour
in which to close. The people seemed
disappointed at the non-sppearance Of
Gov. Humphrey, but when 1t was learned
that the governor had anticipated his
sickness and had telegraphed Colonel
Beekman to be present and "fall not"
the anxiety for the health Of the governor
gradually subsidized, and the discussion
proceeded by an opening address Of one
hour by Colonel Beekman, followed by
s. s. King for one hour and thirty min
utes, after which Mr.. Beekman pro-
ceeded to close with his half hours
speech. Near the close Of Mr.. Beekmsn's
address Gov. Humphrey and Senator
Perkins made their appearance. There
were republicans scattered through the
crowd and they at once began to cheer
and call for Humphrey, and Mr.. Beck
man, apparently understanding the pro-
gram, retired, giving place to Humphrey,
who proceeded to speak. The trick was
too transparent, and showed that the
idea was for Gov. Humphrey to now
make speech, which was to have been
followed by Senator Perkins, and by this
means the afternoon would all be con-
sumed, and the Peoples party would
have had but one speech and the repub-
licans four, and delivered by three DIFF
ferent persons, two of whom could not
have been replied to by the Peoples
party.
The republican gall was too manifest,
and the people began to cell "King"
until Gov. Humphrey could not be
heard. Mr.. King came to the front Of
the platform and the audience became
quiet, and he told the people to hear the
governor and Senator Perkins and then
if the people desired to hear from him,
he would respond. The governor pro-
ceeded with TRADE of abuse, and at the
close of his address Senator Perkins fol-
lowed In the same manner; but both of
these gentlemen were listened to re-
and at the close Mr.. s. s. |
King was again called for and took the |
platform, and began to relate story of |
'Three Commercial Men," and Senator
Perkins jumped 10 his feet and squared |
himself by the side of King and asked |
King IL he meant to call him Perkins) q |
liar, notifying him at the same time
with clenched fists that he would not |
