Rock Island railway officials and a
squad of deputy marshals and sherffs
at the yards in Blue Island today be-
gan trying to lift the blockade In effect
since Saturday. The first move was
toward clearing the tracks filed with
passenger trains. Around the cars
large crowds of strikers gathered. The
strikers formed across the tracks and
placed themselves in position that
would result in injury to themselves
should the trains be moved. About
100 marshals and deputies were lined
up along the tracks, but the strikers
would not move. Deputy Marshal
Logan jumped from the car and started
to drive the STUBBORN strikers from the
tracks. Revolvers were displayed on
both sides, but no shots were fired.
The strikers proved too much for the
marshaIs and deputies, who then wired
for the Fifteenth regiment from Fort
Sheridan and asked help from Gov
ernor Altgeld.
Marshal Arnold wired District At
torney Milchrist to call for the Fiji
teenth regiment and deputy sheriffs.
Lieber called on Sheriff Gilbert for
state troops. About noon the train was
started out OF the yards. Stones were
thrown by the strikers, knives drawn
and the deputies showed their revolt
vers. The strikers so hemmed in
the train that il became inn
possible to move it. Village Off
Ger Michael Larsen tried to arrest
the engineer for violating the ordin-
ance forbidding the blocking of cross
ings for more than five minutes. A
deputy marshal threw the policeman
from the train. BY this time the mob
had become SO boisterous that any fur
ther attempt To move the train had TO
be abandoned.
District Attorney Milchrst said he
would send an additional force of
United States deputy marshals with
the omnibus injunction order before
calling for United States troops.
Officer Larsen, who tried TO arrest the
engineer of the stalled train, was ar
rested by Marshal Arnold for obstruct-
ing the mail. About $50 passengers
are at Blue Island, unable to get water
or food. Supplies have been sent from
the city. The engineer and tiremen
deserted the engine which was To have
brought the regiment of National
Guards to Blue Island, and all the en-
glneers and firemen who were called
upon refused to take the engine. 1t was
then stated that the train would DC
taken out by the Esrshals.
Chief Deputy Marshal Logan was
stabbed by the strikers. His wound is
not dangerous. United States Marshal
Arnold aud $50 deputies were huddled
In the cars that blockade the Rock
Island yards, awaiting the arrival of
the Second regiment l. N. G. and the
Fifteenth regiment of the regular army.
The strikers boldly declared the trains
would he dumped when the soldiers
appeared and bullets would be met
with bullets.
Two thousand brickmakers at Blue
Island struck this afternoon and
armed themselves with the intention
of aiding the strikers. At 2:45 o'clock
the Rock Island road sent out train
for Blue Island. carrying 90 deputies.

THE CAUSE OF TROUBLE.
louisville Courier-Journal. /

It is the practice OF labor agitators to ex-
cite and mlslead the masses by confu-
sion of terms. They lay down indisput-
able assertions as to the rights of the peo-
pie, when in reality they do not mean the
people at all, but snch portion of the peo-
pie as they may be able to influence by
their demagogy. In no country on earth
have the people more undisputed power.
In no country on earth is the individual,
be he capitalist or laborer, more directly
responsible for the Government under
which he lives. In no other country on
earth is the law more completely the en-
actment of the popular will. and there
fore the more rigidly TO be enforced. 1t
is the misunderstanding agitator, the mob
fearing official, and the demagogic petit
logger that keep the elements of unrest
astir and befog The ignorant and thought
less until they forget the dignity and the
duty of their citizenship.

The formation of the Populist party in
the United States and the tendencies that

attempts at social and political revolu-
ton, a portion 1T least of its followers

rioters of this country are neither Repub-
licans nor Democrats. A majority of
them are aliens in birth, and politically
are Populists or Socialists. During the
recent strike the eXhortations to riot and
incendiarism came from the Populist
