He Did Right.

The President did exactly right in order
ing troops to suppress the riot.
His proclamation, ordering the rioters to
disperse, and giving their sympathizers
notice that they must take the conseq aence
OF being found in bad company was also
right,
The forbearance of General Miles was all
that anybody could wish.
This country must be ruled by law and or.
der, or by mobs and anarchy. The sooner
the question is settled the better. The strik-
ers need a lesson.
Debs and his co-conspirstors should be held
to strict accountability for the destruction
OF property, and they should be punished as
other incendiaries and outlaws are punished
for offences against property.
All will grant the right of the Railway
Union to quit work, but none can justify
their destruction of property.
