big strike is the only thing thought Of, and
every one. from the school-boy 10 the busi-
ness man, il giving the situation a most
thorough consideration. What is puZZhng
the people of this section is how certain pro-
posed steps will effect the men. 1t Is gener-
ally believed here that the sheriff can take
possession of the mill If he wants to, and II
done under conditions set forth by tho men
not the least trouble will occur. The major
ity Of the men say that it Is not necessary for
the sheriff to take charge, as they claim the
men have not taken possession OF the CON-
panys property and the compgnys watchmen
are In charge Of the plant.
II the sheriff comes here and takes charge,
what good will it dor The company cannot
operate the plant as long as the men can pre-
vent 1t, aud they say the sheriff cannot get
enough men in the county 70 come here to
cope with the men.
A more determined body of men never took
a stand on a labor question, and they claim
they are fighting for home and family more
than anything else. They arc mostly men
who have been here for years and have in
vested their savings in homes. which they
now fear they will have to abandon in case
the company wins the strike.
Sheriff hcCieary said to reporter this
morning that nothing has been done to-day.
and that there was nothing new in the situa-
tl0n. The sheriff denies positively tnat there
was any understanding whatever with Will
liam A. Pinkerton. OF Chicago, or any one
else that the Pinkertons were 20 be depu-
iized. AS to what steps the sheriff will take
10 gain possession OF the Homestead Works

IN the matter until Monday. Even then

be. Thus far have done all |
think II possible for any one holding the
position Of sheriff to do. The fact OF the
matter is that laws relative TO raising a
