Our dispatches of Saturday told of the
going out on strike Of several thousand
men at the Pullman car works in illinois.
There is a story preliminary to the one
told in the dispatches that is interesting.
Some time ago Mr.. Pullman himself had
talk with the men and told them it was
impossible to give them better wages at
present; that the company was not max
ing money. In fact, he explained, the
works for several months had been run at
loss. That this was fact the books of
the company would show, and he invited
the men TO inspect the books for them
selves in order that they might have no
doubts on the subject. The men accepted
the invitation and appointed a committee
from among their number to go over the
books with experts On Thursday the
examination of the books was begun.
What theexaminers found has not been
told by the correspondent. Nevertheless
the men went on strike on Friday.

Administration Pressnre.

1t is admitted that il was the admins
tration that secured the repeal of the
| purchasing clause of the Sherman silver
! law, and the administration will bring
/ about the passage of the Wilson bill II
| is quite generally admitted in Washing
ton that the Senate would do scarcel V
anything toward redeeming the pledges
OF the national democratic platform if it
were not for the unceasing pressure upon
il by the President.
The Senate is made up of lot Of selfish
stubborn men, who care very little for
public sentiment until the mutterings of
the people become threatening For
weeks many of the democratic senator's
have been pressing for this or that con-
cession in behalf of interests in their
respective states until they have
taken from the Wilson bill much of its re-
form character. At no time apparently
have they given much thought TO reduc-
ing the tariff in accordance with the doc
trines of their party. Like Senator Muir
ply, of New York, who has ceased to be
heard since he got the protection he
wanted for collars and cuffs manufactured
at the factories of his friends in Troy,
they have Deen planning plotting and
working for an increase of duty on this
or that article in order to crafty some
favored constituent If it were not for
the President it is doubtful if tariff bill
could be got through the Senate that
would bear any resem blance to tariff re-
form measure.
And the House did not do its work
well. 1t has received praise for acting
promptly, but it sent to the Senate bill
that did not provide sufficient revenue
for the needs of the government. That
defect in the bill gave the senators Just
the opportunity they wanted for making
changes in the bill.
The fact is beginning to be recognized
that without the influence of the admin
istration there would be nothing done
practically toward redeeming the party
pledges contained in the national plat
form. The criticism of the Presidents
financial policy is not honest criticism.
There has been sent to him no silver leg
islation in harmony with the national
democratic platform, except the bill re-
pealing the purchasing clause of the
Sherman silver law, and that he
promptly signed. And it is pretty GER
tain that he would sign any other bill
that was in complete harmony with the
letter and spirit of the silver plank of the
democratic platform.

The women in Earnest.

The women Of New York who are ask
ing the constitutional convention of that
state, now in session, 10 grant them suf-
frage are very much in earnest They
are doing a vast amount of work and
have plenty of money to carry out their
programme.
II is not thought that the women will
have their request granted. 1t is by no
means certain that a majority Of Them
want the elective franchise. Those who
are active in the movement have sue
ceeded in creating a good deal of senti
ment in behalf Of their cause, but will
they be able to convince the convention
that woman suffrage would be for the
public good
Mr. Choate, the president of the con-
vention, was very diplomatic in his refer
ence to the woman's movement in his ad-
dress on taking the chair He said the
question of granting suffrage TO women
was very delicate" one, and that he
permit ed himself to Indulge in the hope
that no great part of our valuable time
will be wasted in the consideration of
projects which, at the outset, by vast
majority of the convention and the com
munity, must be recognized as utterly i'm
practicable"
The remarks of Mr. Choate are not
very encouraging to the women, and
there are other things not encouraging.
One of them is that in Connecticut, where
women have the right to vote at school
mot 8 per cent. of them exercise
the right.
In the event the women should fail 20
get suffrage in New York, the woman
suffrage movement would receive a set
back from which it would not quickly re-
cover

Whites in the Indian Territory.

Senator Teller's report from the com
mittee on the five civilized tribes of In
dams, read in the Senate day or two
ago shows that there are in the Indian
Territory more than quarter of million
of white people who occupy the anomal-
Gus position of being citizens, yet being
without the rights of citizenship. The
whites are in the territory in opposition
to the terms of the treaty with the In
dians, but with the tacit consent of the
Indians themselves, who, it must be as
sumed, have abandoned the policy of ex-
clusiveness they adhered to at the time
of the setting aside of the territory for
Indian occupation.
The Indian population of the territory
is given at 50,055, while the white popula-
ton is estimated to be between $50, 900
and 100000. In some of the agricultural
sections there are ten whites to one
Indian, and there are several towns com
posed wholly of white people. Yet none
of these whites can become owners of
land, neither can they send their children
to the common schools, nor go into the
local courts to settle their differences.
Except in the Cherokee nation they can
not vote or take any part in municipal
government, lay out streets or take any
measures for police protection. They
are forced to depend upon themselves as
individuals and as individuals they must
be tenants.
The whites are not admitted to the
native courts. Whenever differences arise
between them, or between whites and
natives, the matter must be taken to the
federal court at Paris, Tex, or at Fort
Smith, Ark, or at Talequah, l. T. The
expense of conducting causes in those
courts, by reason of the distance to be
Travelled and the time consumed, is enor-
nous. Parties charged with the smallest
misdemeanors are often taken over 200
miles for trial. The consequence of such
a system is that justice is practically de-
MED, except In matters of paramount i'm
portance. And frequently the shotgun is
invoked rather than submit to the expense
and vexation of long Journey and ex-
asperating wait.
The conclusion of the committee is that
some form of relief must be found
for the whites in the Indian Territory. and
the report says such "glaring and I'M
bearable evils" cannot be fully remedied
until the question of political and judi
cial jurisdiction shall be finally changed,
and territorial or state form of govern
ment established"

The Carnegie steel works, in Pennsyl-
vania. offer probably the best example o f
the fruits of protection in this country.
Their owner is several times a million
aire and lives in castle in Scotland Yet
the greatest and most bloody labor war
this country has ever seen occurred at
the Carnegie steel works during pro-
tectionist administration and under the
highest tariff law that ever disgraced the
statute books. And it is this great pro-

with having swindled the government
