A strike can be justified only as a
means Of defense, when an individuals
interest is attacked, Never can it be
justified as collective arm of aggreS-
sion. Man has q natural right to live
and to work. As a means of procur-
ing living he has right to remove
every obstacle to Lis work to get the
value OF his labor. And therefore,
when his labor is neither productive
nor renumerative he has a right to
refuse to continue it, but an individual
right cannot be transferred into a col
lectiye right, nor can an arm Of de-
Tense be changed into an arm Of
aggression to cause a means of good
to degenerate into a source of harm.
An. aggressive strike is not reciprocal
between operator and operative, but
an instrument Of attack upon the pro-
prietor and property.
The right Of protecting the operative,
whether in the factory, or in the field,
should be admitted. And for this pur-
pose, the maximum of labor as well
as the minimum Of salary, should be
fixed. The hours Of labor should be
arranged, giving due attention to
days of rest and abstention from
labor.

arrived at Mrs. Alexander Mitchell
left Milwaukee and has not re-

walls and for short stays since Mrs.

winter months. In the summer she
goes to the Thousand islands, where
Il beautiful cottage, superbly appointed.
awaits her and where she remains IN
til the chilly autumn days send her
back to the sunny orange groves of
Florida. There is no doubt that the
suspension Of the Fire and Marine
bank cut off Mrs. Mitchelrs income to
Il large extent, if not entirely. To keep
up her different residences in the style
in which she lives, it is said by those
acquainted with her, would require
from $4,000 to $4,000 a year. 1t is
is believed Mrs. Mitchell has no de-
sire to change her establishment, and
therefore the present proceedings have
been commenced.
1t is held by those best informed
on the subject that the proceedings will
not result in an eXtravagant degree
of success as, while the Fire and Ma
rlne bank will pay dollar for dollar
to every one of its creditors, when all
is over Senator Mitchell will have yery
little left. 4 friend of Senator Mitch
ell said late this evening that Mrs.
Mitchell sought to obtain an order re-
Sualning Senator Mitchell from diSpoS-
ing Of his property so as to insure her
annuity being continued. The annuity
was guaranteed by bonds signed by
John L. Mitchell, John Johnston and
David Ferguson. AS all are interest
ed in the bank and have turned over
all their property in order to insure
the depOSitOrS against loss, there is
left for Mrs. Mitchell. 1t will
now be a question as to who is to
take precedence, Mrs. Mitchell or the
creditors Of the bank. 1t is believed
when the matter gets into the court
the ruling will be adverse to Mrs.
Mitchell, who 81 seeking to have her
princely annuity continued irrespective
of what may happen to the depositors

says it will have to stand on the same
footing as those of other creditors.

LAST THURSDAYS RAIN DID
MUCH GOOD,
SO Says FOrecaSter Moore in His Week
~ Wisconsin Crop BulIetin-Corn
Promises an Unprecedented Yield.
Potatoes Also Doing Quite Well.
Drought Telling on Pastures.

Willis L. Moore, local forecast official
OF the Wisconsin weather service has
issued crcp bulletin number L., which
is rs follows.
Rain Thursday night and Friday
was general throughout the state, tle
fall averaging about three-fourthS of
ala inch. 1t is very beneficial to corn
and potatoes, but was not enough to
permanently relieve the drouth cond:
ton which has resulted from 4 def
cheney Of rain during both June AMI
July.
Corn continues in excellent cOndi-
ton, many correspondents estimating
that it never showed greater promise
of fine yield at this stage of it's
growth. Potatoes also are generally
doing well. but have not been able
to make such promising development
during heat and drCuth as corn. H.,
Vernon county there are few in the
hill, but these few are of good size
In the northwest counties they are not
up to the average. But in the prin
cipal potato regions they are pronlis-
ing at least q fair yield.
Pastures are getting very short as
a result Of deficient rain during June
and July, and creameries are only re,
ceiving about one-l,alf the usual sup
ply OF milk. In Dodge county the
horn fly is troubling cattle and doubt
less it has some influence in lessening

DEVILFISH STORY FROM THE
SOUTH.

The Brunswick (Ga.) Times has this
deI ilfish yarn: Monday morning, while
Colonel Goodyear's crew were on the
bar and big charge of dynamite
was being raised from the briny depths
on account of a faulty cap, which
would not explode, the workers sud
denly experienced a pulling Of the lines
which were attached to it. Almost in
Stantly q terrible cOmmOtiOn was
heard in the waters and the spray
began to rise above the little boat
like immense waves. Suddnly the two
WOrkmen, who were in a small boat,
were amazed to see the tentacles of
a monster devilfish soaring thirty feet
in the air. The foaming sea was about
to engulf the little craft when the
party in the large boat observed the
connection. The touch of an electric
button would have ended the monster,
but the cap had been tried and the
only way to save them was to cut
the wire connection and the ropes,
which was soon done, and the terror
of the seas, after flashing around a
short while, disappeared, much to the
relief of the party. The thrilling ex-
perience, as related by several gen
tlemen who were in the party, is in
deed marvellous. No such was ever
seen by them before and they all won
der how the two men ever escaped
from it's awful clutches.

FORTIFIED HIS FIRM.
The Milwaukee Cudahys Viii Lose Lit
tie or Nothing.

Milwaukee, Aug. 2-The failure Of
John Cudahy, however extensive it
may prove will not affect the business
interests of Cudahy Bros. IN this city.
The packing business here is conduct
ed solely by Patrick Cudahy, who has
for some time past possessed a con-
trolling interest. John Cudahy'S deal
ings ON the Chicago board of trade
were Of an entirely individual char
acter, it being contrary to the policy
of the firm to become involved in any
transactions ON change Patrick
Cudahy is known as one of the most
conservative business men in this sec
ton of the country, and has not only
held aloof from all speculation, but ev-
en- fortified the firm against the present
crisis In anticipation of the slump in
the price of pork and lard, he some,
time ago unlOaded upon the market
nearly the entire stock of that class
of provisions then ON hand, so that the
concern will suffer but little from the
fall in prices.

New York, Aug. 4-R. 6. Dun 4
company's review of the trade says
that the decentralization of the specu-
lative markets has been followed by
more healthy tone.
In money there has come Il singular
sense OF relief, Notwithstanding an
actual increase in the present embar

6lsI cities, and many industrial works,

are nevertheless fixed on ships bring
over 81, 100000 in gold across the sea,
and on the extra session of congress.
The mCletar. sringency, which mas
at last crushed speculatiOns in wheat
and hog products, has been caused in
part by tn spectators prevention of
exports and their absorption of encr-
nous capital in carrying unprecedented
stocks Of products which, if sold in
tine to foreign consumers, would have
brought gold enough to prevent much
evil.
Wheat has recovered about four
cents and pork 50 or more at Chicago
and orders for exports have caused q
sudden advance in ocean freights.
With the great surplus of wheat
brought over from previous years, the
country will be able to meet al de-
mands, even though the present crop
proves small enough to justify q con
siderable advance from previous prices.
With great crop of corn almost in
Sured, the unusual accommodations OF
pork and hog products would be safer
on the ocean than i'll Chicago ware
houses, and more helpful to the coun-
try.
The Carnegie and some other iron
works have almost ceased producing

MRS. MITCHELL TO SUE.
IT'S Supposed She Is After Her An
nuity.

Milwaukee, Aug. 4.-The probabili-
ties are that the public is to be treated
to a sensation in a short time that
will create no end Of gossip, being
nothing else than a suit by Mrs. Alex
ander Mitchell against her son, Senator
John L. Mitchell, to recover money
alleged to be due on an annuity guar
anteed her soon after her husbands
DEATH The Wisconsin Fire and Marine
bank will also be brought into the
legal arena, as some of Mrs. MitchelIs
money, about 100000, is in that bank.
The first steps in the action were tax
en- recently by Samuel Howard, who
obtained an order from Judge Mann,
of the probate court, for service on
Senator Mitchell before he left for
Washington.
Everything points to a suit to re-
cover deficiencies in Mrs. Mitcheus
annuity paid under an agreement en-
tered into by her and her son, John l..
Mitchell, in 1887. Mr.. Howard said
today that he would like very much to
see a copy of that agreement, and it
is believed that the order signed by
Judge Mann had something to do with
Attorney Howard having his wishes in
this respect gratified; and that being
secured, other steps will probably fol-
low.
At the death of Alexander Mitchell
in 1887 it was found that the bulk Of
his estate was left to his son, John L..
Mitchell. To Mrs. Mitchell was left
/ S250,OOO in cash, the use Of the home
stead on Grand avenue, and the sum
of $4,000 a year. This division OF the
estate was not at all satisfactory to
/ Mrs Mitchell as she wanted more
money and had no use for the home
stead, and threatened proceedings to
secure her dover right in the estate.
While the preliminary steps were still
under consideration, an agreement was
arrived at between John l.. Mitchell
and his mother, by which he took the
homestead and allowed her in cash
about as much as she received in the
will, and guaranteed her a yearly
income which was understood to be the
large sum Of $4,000.
While none of the details of the
agreement We're made public it was
common talk among Mitchen's friends
that he had provided more than hand
somely for his mother, rather than have
the family name dragged through the
courts. Soon after this settlement wa:

LETTER ON LABOR.
English Translation of the Pope 5
Latest Encycical.

New York, Aug. 1.-The World this
morning publishes a special dispatch
from Rome containing a translation
of Pope Leo's forthcoming encyciical
LpOn the labor question, of which the
following is ali abstract:
Constitutions and laws have their
foundation in the character and the
t additions of nations and peoples. They
are the work Of God through centuries,
IS the history of every country shows
But no law which WanderS from re-
iyion or tends to subvert it can be
otherwise than defective, and in time
must come to naught. Society is not
human invention, but divine inspi-
ration, for the real social contract rs
not merely a right between man and
God. Where the man fulfills his duty
to God he cannot fail to perform his
duty to society.
Property is an essential element to
social order for the preservation and
development of human life. and the
divine law has declared human prop
erty sacred and inviolable- Cursed be
! he who removeth his neighbours land
mark" But the poor have neverthe-
less right to be assisted by the rich
not by indiscriminate alms-giving, but
! by preparing such employment for
them as will be useful. If a man will
not work neither shall he eat" But ii
he have no work it is plainly the duty
| of those who can do so to provide ii
for him. This legitmatiZeS property.
No so-called right has any sanction il
not sanctioned by God, and no usurpa
ton of others rights can expect the
blessing of heaven.
i Atheism and departure from the
Christian faith are the great aids and
stimulants of anarchy and socialism
The Christian faith alone is the bull
wark of social order. Where Christian
institutions and customs are not main
tanned in a state there must be disor
der, bewilderment and decay. This
moment Europe is in the throeS of 81
immense Upheaval of society in which
one violent struggle succeeds another
increasingly. In many cases the reason
: is to be found in the fact that legiSla
: ton has not been duly enacted, TO
every person should have his legiu
mate part in the benefits of SOciet.
$ according to the order of Providence.
This state of unrest is not confined
: to the working classes, properly SOCIAL
: ed 1t has taken root and is bearin;
: nefarious fruit in the more cultivate
part of society.
o People allow themselves to be blind
Y ed by agitators who have no real il
V terest in the cause they so loudl
t uphold, beyond a selfish one.
:. And this is why strikes are so VI
e productive of beneficial results. Place
on a basis more social than economic
being more of a struggle than a paclI
t. cation. more of aggression than o.
j. tense, the strike loses its naturs
aspect and hides its essence.
