Rioters at Brazil, Ind, Brutally Assault q
Couple of Strangers.
BRAZIL, Ind, Aug. 6.-David Wilson
and Henry Wright, residents of Attica,
were attacked during the morning by
crowd of men on the Jackson street
crossing Of the Chicago and Eastern ILL
nois and horribly stamped and beaten.
Wilson will die and Wright is seriously
injured, being covered with bruises, his
jaw bone broken and all ugly cut above
the left temple. Wilson's principal
wounds are internal. Trainmaster
Fowler of the Chicago and East
ern Illinois said that they had come
to this city to work on his road,
and this led to the belief that the
men were assaulted by strikers. The
strikers say they were acquainted with
the men, and that they did not come to
work on the road, but that they were
assaulted and robbed by a crowd of
toughs. Wright admits that he was
robbed Of considerable amount of
money.
A man who arrived here to take a
position on the Chicago and Eastern H.
inois was attacked by men who claimed
to be strikers, and was only saved from
being killed by drawing revolver and
holding the crowd at bay till police
man arrived and escorted him to the
roundhOuse.

FOREIGN View of Our Labor War.

Foreign View of Our Labor War.
The farther away from scene Of diff
ficulty and trouble one is the more de-
cided opinions he often has concerning
it. Thus foreign newspaper editors know
more about the cause of our strike and
it's remedy than we ourselves do. The
London Telegraph has it's say on the
situation in the following paragraph. It
is to be observed that The Telegraph's
editor does not write in an unkind or
sneering spirit. He says:
What we are beholdi4g in the United States
is the Nemesis Of old sins among the American
people. Overcome by the immigration Of mot
ley aliens, the native population has abdicated
to the adventures and noisy rascals who lead
them all in command Of national and munich
pal government. The brand and infamy of the
tyranny Of such bodies as Tammany are stamp
ed only too plainly upon the life Of the great
and noble country. There turks in this dark
lesson for all civilized governments. The same
thing is happening on small scale here. Re-
spectacle America is waking in earnest, and
the rest of civilization will do well to follow
the example.

MAKING PROGRESS,

Conferees Hard at Work on the Tariff
Bill.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.-When the
Democratic tariff conferees adjourned
for the day there seemed to be better
feeling among the conferees than at the
close of previous occasions. Members
from both houses announced that the
committee had been working over the
bill and that progress was being made,
but they did not indicate when report
would be reached, though some of the
conferees expressed the opinion that an
agreement was in sight. Considerable
surprise was expressed by the conferees
when they learned that a call for a
house caucus had been issued, and it
evidently was very distasteful to the
house members, who had felt that they
were beginning to see an agreement.
Mr.. Montgomery said that the caucus
would make no difference so far as he
was concerned and he would continue
the work he has engaged in unless some
action very different from that which
he anticipated would be taken by the
caucus. He said that while the caucus
was in progress the conferees would be

What Voting Has to Do With It,

How many Of the thousands who have
been active in the disastrous labor
strikes Of this summer have had glim-
mering OF what voting has to do with
striking? These men constitute the great
body of voters at our annual elections
They must know, if they stop to think of
it, that they are numerous enough to Sc
cure any Legislation they desire, even to
giving every man 40 acres and mule
They have the power in their OWL
hands to do all things This power, dis
torted, destructive and desperate, comes
to the surface in times Of labor disturb
ances and shows how great it is. The
strikers say: THE government-nob0dy
will give us satisfaction. We are not
paid enough. Let us revenge ourselves.
The government is owned body and
bones by the rich Great corporations
have congress trotting like little dog
at their heels, anxious to do their bid
ding, got a bone flung to. it and lie
down. Let us burn, tear, blow up, kill.
Instead Of this the strikers should say
to themselves: 1--WE elect the members
of congress. We would be ashamed to
tell how many Of, US sell our votes for
cash, for sums ranging all the way
from SIS to 500. We said openly that
we didn't care copper who got elected,
SO we could make some money out Of
the election. IF the legislation is against
US, it is Our own fault. We are little
bit meaner and lower down than any
bloated capitalist OF legislator alive to-
day, for we sold our votes to elect the
men who were vile enough to buy votes.
We deserve all legislation that is hos
tile to us, and more, too, and we shall be
sure to get it SO long as we are willing
to sell our ballots. The men who buy
our ballots are in turn bought up by the
big capitalists and do their bidding. If
we chose, we could at any time elect to
Office men who could not be bought.
But so long as we ourselves can be
bought we do not deserve anything bet-
ter. Let US take our medicine.
