The Pinkerton Men Shipped Out n
Special Train
PITTsBURG, July 8.-The 25O Pinker-
tons, less the number taken from the
train to the West Pennsylvania hospital
brought from Homestead to this city at
an early hour Thursday morning, were
kept locked in their five coaches on an
obscure sidetrack of the Pennsylvania in
this city until 10 o'clock, when an en-
CINE was attached to their train and
they left ON special schedule, destined,
it is said, for New York city.
The men inside the cars presented a
sorry sight with their bandaged heads
and arms. Nothing could exceed their
impatience to get away, and they were
crazy for papers TO get an idea of the
situation at Homestead.

enced or witnessed, and have been a
detective for twenty years.
In response to the sheIiff's public call
for deputies, to report at his Office at Q
o'clock Thursday morning up to 9:3O,
five men had made their appearance.
Reports from Homestead Thursday
morning said that everything was quiet.
The workmen, however, maintain
strong guard at all approaches to the
town.

The New York Herald, Repub-
lican paper says "The Democratic
platform is squarly representative
of Democratic principles. 1t is
right on the tariff. right on silver
and right in its denunciation of Re-
publican extravaganza. 1t has al
ready commended itself to the good
sense of those who have carefully
read it, and will still further COM
mend itself when we get into the
thick of battle"

Tammany is in the fight, as it al
ways is, and is in it for Cleveland
snd Stevenson. New York has an
assembly to elect this fall to return
a Senator in Hiscock's place, and
Tammany will see that the State is
Democratic at that time. The Dem
ocrats have New York, and propose
to keep it. Tammany is for the
nominees.

Justice and HumanItr.

The remarks of Senator Palmer,
of Illinois, published in another col
umn. and uttered by him in the
United States Senate on Thursday,
are based upon principles of hu-
manity and justice. Its time that
Congress was investigating the la.
Dor troubles; and it is time that
Congress and. the States were pass
ing laws to prevent armed men
ing from one State to another, at
bidding of monopolists, to do
lice duty and shoot down labor
men when. they protestagainst
reduction of their wages by these
fotected industries. The Pinker-
toms who went to Homestead and
provoked battle with the work
ingmen, are murderers, and should
be treated as such by the Peunsyl-
vania authorities. 1t has come to a
nice pass when a foreigner can
build forts, and arm men, to awe
American workmen into submission
This man Carnegie, is a foreigner
who has made his millions in this
country by Republican protection
and the fleeing of the men in his
employ. What cares he for the life
of a working man, so that he can
attain his ends, reduce the mems
wages and add more to his millions?
He called on Gov. Pattison for pro-
lection, but he soon informed him
that the Governor of Pennsylvania
was not hireling at the beck and
call of Andrew Carnegie, and re-
fused to call out the militia to assist
his company in forcing the men into
submission to his will. This ac-
ton of Gov. Pattison is endorsed
and applauded by the people from
one end of this land to the other.

CARNEGIE STUBBORN.
WIN Hold Out Until Grass overErous
the Mills.

the Mills.
New YORK, July 1.-THE Pittsburg
correspondent of The Sun says that
Chairman Prick, of the Carnegie Steel
company. is acting under direct instruc-
tons from Carnegie, who has been kept
instructed of the progress of things and
the outlook, and has kept in close touch
with affairs at Homestead.
Carnegie, it is asserted, is determined
absolutely 10 maintain the stand his
company has taken. Prick has received
Carnegie's ultimatum that the company
will hold out ON its present lines to the
end, no matter what the end may be-;
that Carnegie win not sanction the re-
employment of any of the discharged
workers. and he declares he will hold
out until grass overgrows the mills
rather than give in to the association.

The Homestead Troubles.
In the United States Senate, on
Thursday, Senator Palmer, Demo
craft Of Illinois, said that the pre-
senee ofthe Pinkerton's armed force
at Homestead was in contempt of
the authority OF the State of Penn
sylvania. It's manner was menace
ing and insulting. It was difficult
for American citizens, whether they
were in the right or in the wrong,
to submit to being driven by an
armed force. He confessed that
every impulse of his mind tempted
him to say that he should dislike
being driven, even though in the
wrong, by a power which might
happen to be in the right. He
maintained, however, that those
citizens of Homestead were in the
right. He maintained that, accord
ng to the principles of law which
should hereafter be applied to the
solution of these troubles, they had
a right to be there, and made it
necessary for him to assert these
men had a right to employment
there They had earned right to
live there. Those large manufac-
turing establishments would here
after have to be regarded as politi-
cal establishments in a modified
sense and their owners would have
to be regarded as holding their
property subject to the co relative
rights of those without whose ser
vices their property would be ut
terly valueless; that he only con-
coded their right to reasonable
profit on the capital invested in
their enterprises.
He maintained, furthermore, that
these workingmen having spent
their lives in the peculiar line of
service had right to insist on the
permanency of their employment;
that they had right to insist, also,
on reasonable compensation for their
services. He maintained, further
more, that at the time of the assault
on these people that they had a
right to be there. They were on
ground which they had a right to
defend. They were conducting
themselves in the line of their
rights. Manufacturing establish
ments were public institutions just
as railroads were.
They were public because
they were worked for the public
because they employed the public
and became unfit for other service.
While conceding the right of capt.
talists to the control of his property
and a reasonable reward for this in
vestment, he claimed that labor had
a right to permanent employment
during good behavior. OF course
labor was compelled to submit to
changes of business. Where profits
were small the parties would have
to divide the loss; where they were
large they would have to be divided.
That, he maintained, was law today,
because law was the perfection OF
reason.
