THERE are signs that the largest
labor strike ever known in this, or
any other country, is about to come
to an end, and that capital has
again defeated labor. The strikers
are weakening, and before many
days, probably, trains will be run
ming on all roads regularly. They
are now running on eastern and
southern roads. In all probability
Mr.. Pullman, the railroad compan-
les and the government, which is of,
by and for the corporations, will
have won another victory over the
masses of laboring men. But how
long can this thing go on? There
must come a day, at no distant
time, when lily paid labor and
scantily fed families can live no
longer under such treatment by
their masters. Then what will
come? The Pullman Company is
making ten million dollars year,
and refuses to pay its employees
wages enough to allow them to
comfortably subsist. And because
they rebel at the treatment received
and ask for fair wages-a slight
portion of what the company earns
they are discharged and the COM
bined effort of all corporations in
the land, and the government itself,
is made to force the laborers to ac-
cept Just what Pullman sees fit to
give them. The strikes that occur
in this country are getting stronger,
though; the sympathy of the peo-
pie is increasing each year for those
men who have manhood enough to
demand for the sake of their fami-
lies fair living wages, and the labor
organizations are becoming more
thoroughly amalgamated, and when
the day does come for general up
rising, this country will receive such
a shaking up as it never had before.
There will be anarchists in the
movement-they cannot be kept
out-and the handful of govern
ment troops in America will be
overheard in trice. There will be
revolution that will be so bitter
that it will stop at nothing but
complete overthrow of this corrupt
and treacherous government. But
there is yet time to remedy all this,
if steps are taken at once. The first
of these steps should be the remod-
cling of our financial system, the
return to free and unlimited coinage
of gold and silver. This would put
more money in circulation and
make prosperity in all business.
Then there should be suppression of
foreign emigration. This would
give the laboring classes a chance
to recuperate and get upon a solid
footing again; and there should be
a law made that will make the
millionaires and wealthy people
pay their just proportion of the
taxes of the country. Small owners
now pay two-thirds of this tax to
support the government. And,
furthermore, if the people would
follow the policy outlined by the
Peoples Party in regard to a gov
eminent of, by and for the people,
with a few exceptions, they would
in a few years notice wonderful
change for the better in the country.
Until these changes are made strikes
revolutionary and anarchistic dis
plays, and a general feeling of dis
trust, and dissatisfaction will con-
tinue to be manifested

argument by the defense In support of the
motion. The big room was crowded, as 10

proacting a climax. The end was not un-
expected. 1t was presased by a vital
ruling made by the Judge before the
noon recess, wherein he held that the
plaintiffs who were suing as the victims
OF fraud were perfectly we'll aware
OF the enormous profits involved In
the roster contract, which they bought
and that the determination of such knowl-
edge was a question OF law for the court
and not fact for the jury. He further
held that the objection OF the defense to
the introduction of evidence showing those
excessive profits must be sustained
