make money, or to look upon them
merely as so much muscle of physical
power. Here is the whole germ of social
rights and duty.
Labor is not, and cannot be, an article
OF commerce. The merchantable com
modify, as bread or meat, is enIrely sub
ject 10 the laws of demand and supply.
Modern industrialism preserves nothing
beyond the market in which 1t buys
labor. The very term labor market indi-
Gates the extent to which greed, power
and pelf has sunk workingmen. Spe-
clous words are spoken to hide away hid
eOus crimes against humanity. Free
labor free competition freedom and
contract such are the maxims that men
are driven to work at starvation wages,
and however low these are the work man
is hidden to step aside the moment an
other human being is found to give
cheaper rates at the sweat of his brow.
The right of each man to obtain from his
labor sutficiency wherewith to live in
reasonable and frugal comfort, implies
an antecedent right to the opportunity to
work. Society is bound to provide for
the needy who are willing to labor and
can find no work, and this duty of society
is not one Of charity, but of Justice"

The battle lasted an hour and then the
outlaws all retreated but Arkansas Tom,
who was barricaded upstairs in the hot ell
and kept the officers at bay until o. clock,
when he surrendered on condition that
he be protected from mob law. Several
OF the citizens fought with the officers.
Half the houses in the town had holes
shot in them, and the hotel and adjoining
buildings had the appearance of having
been in a battle.
When the smoke cleared away and the
excitement abated it was found that be-
sides the deputies, Speed and Shadley, a
clerk named Simmons had been killed.
Deputy Marshal Thomas Houston and a
citizen. n. a. Walker, were fatally shot

in four places, but escaped. \ Yesterday
the dead body of George Newcomb was
found in ravine five miles from town.
A large force started in pursuit of the
gang last night, and officers are gathering
here from all parts of the Territory to go

other battle is expected hourly. Arkansas

RIVERSIDE, Sept. 3.-One of the heav-
lest storms ever known here passed over
the upper part Of this valley early yester-

The Arlington street car tracks were
washed out, and several merchants on
Main street suffered loss from their stores
being flooded. The rain had almost the
volume of a cloudburst, and LIS inches
fell from 1870 to 2 o'clock.
The greatest damage was in West Riv-

''The Catholic Church and the Labor

delegates from the Social Democratic
Federation of Great Britain.
The Archbishop began by saving that
the cause OF labor was espoused by the
Catholic Church, and added: Sat the
very foundation of the labor question lies
the proper appreciation of individual
man. Religion, says Leo Kill, teaches
the rich man and employer that their
work people are not their slaves; that
they must respect in every man his dig
nifty as man and as Christian; that
labor is nothing to be ashamed of, but is
an honorable employment, enabling man
to sustain his life in an upright and cred

Expressions From Some Interior CAL

ifornia Papers.
Stockton independent: The State Capt.
tai has now escaped the odium that must
have attached to it had it's Trustees at
tempted to nullity a State law by mu-
nicipal ordinance.
Fresno ErpoSitor: Tulare City is seri-
ously considering the proposition of put
ting all idle men to work cleaning weeds
out of the alleys and sidewalks, giving
them their board for their work till they
can get better jobs.
San Jose Record 1t would be a good
thing if the Legislature would take meas
ures to find out just how many sane peo-
pie there are shut up in tho States in
sane asylums and give then q their lib
erty. This remark is pro-. y ted by a
case that is now exciting attention at the
Agnews asylum. A young woman was
regularly committed to that asylum by
the Superior Court by Oakland, though
superintendent Hatch says that he does
not find her at all insane and has never
seen any symptoms of insanity about
her.
Napa Register: The Supervisors of Ala
media County will attend the Road Con-
vention, which convenes in Sacramento
September 7th, in a body. Splendid idea.
One that other boards might initiate with
profit to themselves and theiI constitu-
ents.
Los Angeles Herald: The unwarranta-
BILE scare that has passed over the United
States resulted in one of the most artificial
panics that was ever recorded. No man
can give any intelligent explanation of
why 1t should have occurred.
Placer Herald: Sacramento voted last
Saturday by large majority to discard
river water for drinking purposes and
try wells. We admire Sacramento's pro-
gressive spirit and hope the enterprise
that prompted this change will be for the
BEST
Oakland Enquirer: The purpose of the
State Road Convention of September 7th
is good and the meeting important. 1t
ought to be a representative gathering,
and whether the results to follow are little
or great, they cannot fail to be in the right
line. 1t is not probable that California
will ever have good roads unless differ
ent system of expending the proceeds OF
taxation is adopted, and unless the need
| of classification, decentralization and en-
gineeriug skill is very much more felt
| than it is at present. For several years
1 past the Legislature has been tinkering
| the road law, without making a very
great advance in the methods of work,
and we hope that one of the results oil
the convention will be growing convic-
I ton Of the need Of radical change.
