General Weaver on I.abSt Strikes.
The following remarks wefe made
at Des Moines last week by General
Weaver, the nominee of the Peoples
party for President
I regard the situation throughout
the country as very grave and have
believed for some time that we are
nearing serious crisis. If the pres
ent strained relations between corpor-
atoms and their employees, between
wealth owners and wealth producers
continue much longer they will ripen
into frightful disaster.
When Rome was near her fall the
wealthy barons had their braves; our
corporate barons have their Pinker-
tons. They are an armed body of
cruel mercenaries and a menace to
the peace of society and the lives of
the people. At their bidding blood
shed follows close upon the heels of
corporate tyranny.
They must be suppressed and the
terrible economic conditions which
have spawned this cruel army of thugs
upon the country must be changed at
once or the Republic must give to
corporate despotism.
The frightful condition of affairs in
Pennsylvania will strike the whole
country like an alarm bell at midnight.
Public sympathy viii naturally be
with those struggling to exist upon the
earth and for their wives and little
ones.

James Hutchinson returned yester-

for $52, 500, payable as follows: $4,000

The Mrs. Cassidy Fnnd.

The following letter is from a well
known mining man at Osceola, whose
name we are not at liberty to give:
EDITOR News: just line to say
that this little camp will furnish $25
to the Cassidy fund. Your suggestion
was timely, and if our friends widows
financial condition is as stated some
thing should be done at once while it
is fresh in our minds. So you can de-
pend on this place for its share in the
good work.

CLOUDBURsT.

Duckwster, Nye County, Submerged
From Joe Mendes, who was in town
last Sunday from Duckwater, we learn
that there was terrible clouldburst
in that vicinity a week ago yes
terday. It commenced raining late in
the afternoon, and just after dusk
three terrific peals of thunder shook
the whole neighborhood. Huge, dark,
ominous clouds overhung the noun
tains above the North Springs, and
water poured down out of the heavens
in violent torrents. It lasted only a
short time, but deluged the whole
surrounding country. Huge waves
rolled along the meadows, carrying
sediment and debris before it, cover
ing hay and grain fields without leav-
ing blade of anything green in sight.
Even fruit orchards are temporarily
destroyed, and the damage alone, Mr..
Mendes thought, must have been in
calculable. He left home at midnight
and was all of Saturday and until two
o'clock of Sunday morning making the
first ten miles. When he started wa
ter was surging deep over the bridge
near his house. In crossing the stream
his wagon wheels were covered above
the hub and the horses up to their
bellies in mud. Hay in the lowlands
that stood three or four feet high was
completely covered with mud and
sand, and the fruit crops he thought
were mainly destroyed. Mr.. Mendes
says he has lots of hay left, and there
are others on Duckwater that prob
ably have some also, despite the fact
that immense quantities have been
ruined. Among those whom he
thought were the greatest sufferers by
the food were Jerry Ahern, B. B.
Strait, Billy Mendes, Gus De Flon of
Currant Greek, Ike Irwin and George
Manson. He thought the country for
about fifteen miles square was covered
with water. Eureka Sentinel.

cussion by the Board of the affairs of of
the company. The members of the
Board are well satisfied with the out
look and are confident that everything
will be in readiness in short time for

lions in the way of construction.

The indiana Reason.

The answer of johnson Sides, the
Indian, to Judge Bigelow, before the
Board of Pardons ct Carson last week,
was rare bit Of rapartee and logic.
When asked why the Indians killed
the witch, he repliee: ''For the same
reason you folks used to kill 'em.
Sides no doubt had been reading his
tory and remembered that it was not
very long ago when our ancestors kill
ed and burned witches at Salem,
Mass, and they claimed to be a good
deal more civilized than the Indians
are now.

Unlawful Work.

The Miners Union of the Occur
d'Alene District in Northern Idaho is
sure to come to grief. The shooting
down of unarmed men and the de-
struction of property was wicked, cow
ardly work, and the men who took
part in it should be severely punished.
If the telegraphic reports are true,
these men should be shown no mercy,
for they had none for those who were
placed in their power, but shot them
down like dogs.
It is a blot ON civilization that such
things should occur, and the miners
are sure to be the losers in the end.
Our sympathies are and always have
been with the workingmen to uphold
good wages by all legitimate means
in their power. But the right to COM
NIT murder and arson is another thing.
The Occur d'Alene miners seem to
have leagued themselves with anarch-
lists and placed themselves outside of
law and all public sympathy. Men
who wilfully violate the most sacred
laws of God and their country should
be proceeded against as if they were
wild beasts. For that is what men
are when the lose reason, justice and
all regard for the rights of others.

from Oklahoma, arrived in the city last
night on his way home lie has just re-
turned from Washington where he had
been delayed with matters of interest to
his territory and the people whom he so
ably represents. He is not positive about
the opening of the Cherokee Strip in the
near future. but he thinks some OF the
other reservations will be thrown open in
the early spring. The reasons why the
Cherokee Strip has not been opened are
partly financial and mostly political.
Among other reservations which are likely
to be opened he named the kickapoo
country. He did not state the political
reasons that interfered with the opening
of the Cherokee Strip, but every body
knows them TO be the fears of Jerry
Simpson and his Democratic allies that
