Glorious Work.


The Institute reached S]eepv Nxe

failure in view.
However, at it's first session Mon.
day it had q hundred in attendance
some OF whom came tWewty-fwo
miles, Others fourteen miles. MANY
came in from the village.
This is the place where tho LAWYERS
and editor stated that "Doe" Fish
told SIS lies in his addressl And where.
we had challenged debate~-or the.
representation Of one lie.
| AS consequence the people turned
out, men, women and children, to-
listen Monday evening. The haM
was crowded to standing room.
First, after three songs, Mr.. A. D.
Stewart, gave an address of power
and intrinsic merit, ON "Why a. New
Party After more songs, DR.. Fish
took up the Grain Markets and 9th.
Ter matters, and went" for those
who had accused him, but he con.
tined his criticisms to those who were
the party tools and to the hire]inr
press.
The impression was splendid. The
city or village was intensely opposed
TO the movement before-hat TODAY
the masses are breaking away-rirhs
under the noses of the LAWYERS and

The members of Scandal Alliance
No. 643, Polk county, held meeting
on May Il, and resolved in favor OF
Hon. Ignatius Donnelly for governor
and Mr.. Andrew STEVENSON for con-
gresham. They resented the insin-
uation, that should the republicans
nominate Hon. Knute Nelson, for
governor, all the Scandinavians
would fall in line to vote for him
simply because he was a. Scaudinav-
ian. They regard this. implication
as an insult to their-intelligence, and
resolved to vote only for men who
represent alliance principles. They
also favored the nomination of Mr..
John Knuntson for representative in
the legislature from that district.

To SMOKE THE MINES.
How Hiding Tennessee Strikers Will be z Unearthed.

NASHVILLE, Aug. 24.-Quiet prevails at Coal Creek, but it has been determined to hold the troops there for a while so that any movement on the part of the miners may be met with sufficient force.
 Yesterday the officials of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company held a consultation with the State Board of Prison Inspectors in reference to the order served upon the company to remove the convictS from the main prison.
 It is not known how the conference re- suited. It is believed, however, that the convicts will be returned speedily to the mines, and that the State will furnish proper protection.
 Over 500 miners, suspects and citizens have been arrested at Coal Creek. About 150 are still held prisoners in a little church. The prison is close, hot and un- comfortable in every way.
 N "A sensation Is created here by the state ment that the authorities have determin- ed to smoke the mines, and thus drive out miners who are believed to be in hiding in them.
 It has been suspected for some time that several Of the much wanted leaders of the rioters had found shelter in the mines, where they have been compa ara lively safe from pursuit.
 Squire Kincaid held court at Coal Creek yesterday and several miners have been held to court while others have been discharged. All obstacles to civil prose cution have been removed by appointing Gen. Carnes Deputy Sheriff of Anderson county.
 State Attorney Pickle is conducting the prosecution with plenty of assistance.

IMPORTANT RAILROAD DECISION.
Companies Cannot Re Forced to Dc
 Business at 8 Loss.

Companies Cannot Be Forced to Do
 Business at Loss.
 NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-What is prob ably the most important decision handed down by Federal Judge in many years has just been handed down by Judge Mccormick of the United State Court, at Dallas, Tex. The decision is a great victory for railroads operating through out the country as well as those in the State of Texas.
 It is practically to the effect that State legislation in regard to railroads which compels them to do business on such a status that it is impossible for them to pay the interest on their bonds impairs the contract with the holders of such bonds, and is consequently in violation of the Constitution of the United States
 The principal roads interested are the Texas & Pacific, the International & Great Northern, the St. Louis South western and the Gulf, Colorado & Sante Fe, a branch of the Atchison. Judge Me Cormick's decision grants the prayers of the complainants in full In effect it holds the entire act unconstitutional
 The decision gives immediate relief to the railroads and blocks the State Com mission, pending appeal to the Supreme Court, when the railroads are confident of winning the case.
 The effect of the decision on the stock market was apparent to-day. South western stocks were active and buoyant.

SAYS THE GUARDS DID RIGHT.
Warden Brown of Sing Sing Justifies tn
 Shooting of the Convicts.

Shooting of the Convicts.
 SING SING, N. Y., Aug. 24.-The ex- citement over the shooting of Convict Charles F. Vincent, who was killed, and the wounding of Convict Welsh, while they were trying to escape, has entirely subsided. Vincent's body, not being claimed by his friends, has been buried in the prison cemetery.
 Welsh is in the hospital under the care of Prison Surgeon Irvine. The bullet wound in his thigh is not considered serious. He will be placed in dark cell on fare of bread and water for a certain period and will also lose all his good time which would have been taken off his sen tence for good behavior.
 Keeper Solomon Post, who had such a desperate encounter with Convict Vim cent before the latter was shot, is laid up with badly lacerated hand. One of his fingers was almost bitten off by the con vict, and there is danger of blood pois- oning.
 Warden Brown says that he has made a thorough investigation of the whole affair and is satisfied that his keepers who took part in the fight with the convicts did only their plain duty in shooting them down.

Mayor Webster aud the Water
 bury Furniture Co,

Our annual excursion last Monday given to our employees, turned out to be one of the great social events of the year. We think 1t would be the proper thing, in your next message to recommend to our manufacturers the closing of their mills on that day. It would be the one great stroke of diplomacy which would distin- guish your political career.
 When we paraded through the city in the big omnibus, drawn by our four handsome grey horses, the way that the beautiful girls waved their handkerchiefs at our boys, we could see at glance that the feeling was perfectly natural, as all our hearts began to fiutter We must have those girls with us next year at any cost. Since we came back our orders have doubled, and our men are equal to the emergency. They have been singing at their work ever since. Everyone knows that we believe in the people, and the people believe in us. This is where our success lies.
 The people know where to buy Carpets, Oil Cloths, Window Shades, Stoves, Ranges, Pictures and Furniture of every description.
