The Method in the "Professioua1 Lobby.
lists" Madness.
1t is not unlikely that the Armour
dressed beef trust ordered its attorney,
MIR. William j. Campbell, whom Presi-
dent Harrison selected as chairman of
his national committee, to refuse that
office. The refusal certainly does not
rest on MIR. Farwell's letter, in which
the presidents description of Campbell
as professional lobbyist" was made
public The beef trust, however, has a
grievance. -Four years ago it contrib
uted 500, 600 to the Harrison corruption
fund on the understanding that when
the republican tariff was made up a
duty should be placed On hides Thai
tax would have been worth $3.50, 900 to
the Armours, so their investment Of
500. 600 in Harrison and protectionism
was one of the best the firm ever made.
According to contract Mr.. Mckinley,
IN the preparation OF his bill, put tax
upon hides. But the leather industries
In the country objected strongly to the
proposed tax on their raw materials.
In the struggle three times the Armours
forced Mckinley's committee to live up
to the ante-election contract, and they
were finally beaten only when New
England republican congressman re-
fused pointblank to vote for the Nc
kinley tariff if the tax on hides was left

THE HOMESTEAD EXAMPLE.
Protected PIutocracy Deals Death tc
American Labor.

Protected Plutocrzcy Deals Death to
American Labor.
Blood has been shed at the Home
stead mills Pinkerton janizaries hired
by Carnegie have killed and wounded a
score or more of workingmen in bat
tie brought on by Carnegie's determine
ton to lower the wages of his en-
ployes, peaceably if he can, forcibly if
he must. His employment of these
armed hirehngs shows that he is ready
to shoot down the wages of American
labor if he can't lower them by simply
posting notice of reduction.
1t is not necessary to defend the
locked-out worlkingmen in their acts OF
violence. They have become particeps
criminis in a breach of the peace, but
they are not responsible for the tragedy
at the Carnegie iron works. They sim
ply fought plutocracy with its own
weapons, and until Pinlertonism is put
down by law the hirelings of the
plutocrats must be taught by such les
sons as that at Homestead that if they
appeal to Winchesters they shall perish
by Winchesters.
The Carnegie Steel Company, limited,
deliberately and probably intention
ally provoked a breach of the peace by
sending the armed Pinkertons to Home
stead. According to their own pub
lished statement they had appealed to
the sheriff of Allegheny county for
protection, and he was acting upon
their appeal. Beyond doubt, had the
sheriff found himself unable to pro-
tect them in their legal rights with the
posse at his command, he would have
sought such other aid as is provided for
in emergencies by the laws Of Pennsyl-
vania- Without waiting for him to act
in the regular and lawful way, the
Carnegie Steel Company, limited,
sought to steal a march on their en-
ployes by sending down a body of
private merccnaries to take possession
of the works at night and from behind

Running the Gantlet.

Running the gauntlet is sort of pun
ishment inflicted sometimes upon sol
diers. The victim is forced to run be-
tween files of soldiers, who strike at
him as he passes, often infiicting serious
injury. The same form was sometimes
gone through with as test of inno-
cence. A double line of men was sta
toned at a given distance apart. The
person to be tried ran, with all his
speed, between the lines. the men try
ing their utmost to kill him, but with
out moving their feet from the fixed
line. If the victim came through alive,
he was declared innocent; if he fell, he
was thought guilty and dispatched at
once. The expression is also used when
some one exposes himself to severe criti-
cism- He is said to run the gauntlet of
public opinion The word is spelled
gauntlet" not gauntlet IN. Y.

The Largest artificial Mound

Few people know that almost in sight
Of st. Louis stands the largest artificial
mound in America, if not in the world.
The Caholsia mound is over 700 feet
long and SEQ wide at the base, and 90
feet high. It covers over eight acres OF
ground, and has upwards of 100000 OC
cubic feet of contents. When one re-
fleets on the low degree of civilization
attained by the people who built this
mound, and the inadequate tools, trans
portatlon, and mahcinery employed, it
was for the Indians more stupendous
undertaking than for us would be the
building Of another city like ST. Louis.
This mound is really mountain, and
every handful of dirt it contains must
have been carried thither in hand
baskets. How long it took or why it
was built at all are questions that will
probably never be answered, but the
stupendousncss of the work cannot be
called in question. Louis Globe

Up Prospects That the Hatch Bill
Can't Be Passed This Season-Bad Crop


All News Favors Bulls and Everything Is
Up - Prospects That the Hatch Bill
Can't Be Passed This Season-Bad Crop
and Cable Reports.
CH1CAGo-There was more activity and
decidedly more strength in all of the pits dur
ing most of the session of the Board of Trade
to-day, but near the close there was a general
weakening all along the line. and final fig.
ures show only moderate gains. Nearly all
of the early news was Of more or less bullish
character, the shorts becoming ratified, and
in their efforts to cover put prices above the
point at which they could be maintained.
Perhaps the most encouraging factor OF the
day was the growing belief that the dreaded
"Hatch" bill cannot pass the Senate this
session.
There were other strong features: Crop
reports come in less favorable than hereto
fore. Domestic markets were higher.
There was a decrease of 1000 bushels on
ocealI passage, and there was u report from
that the Indian wheat crop was 64,ooo. 600
bushels less than last year After all of
these bull items had their effect it was
noted that most later cables were lower,
instead of higher, as would have been the
case with an enormous decrease in India.
July wheat opened at 7s31c, advanced to
1870, weakened to 1870 and closed ut 791sc,
Corn was strong and higher. The Illinois
State report was unfavorable and other crop
advices also discouraging, and there was
active covering by shorts and good specu
lative buying, while there was little for sale
The decided strength in wheat and the other
speculative pits also helped the market,
ent and prospective; but it weakened later
with wheat. July opened ut 501sc. advanced
to 5l5sc, sold off to 5Okc and closed at 60;9c,

Oats sympathized with the other cereals,
