Railroad Men Deny the Northern Pacific
strise Story. -
ST. PAUL, Feb. THE telegram from
Tacoma to the effect that the grand Of
ficers of the railway brotherhoods now
in st. Paul have ordered general
strikA over the entire Northern Pacific
system, is treated as fake of the wild
est sort by the chiefs themselves. Grand
Master Wilson, Grand Chief Clark,
Grand Master Sargent and J. B. w.
johnson of the federated board, deny
the report so unanimously and decidedly
that there is no room to doubt its abso-
lutte falsity. The idea is gathered from
the general sentiment of the grand Off
GERS that the time for strike is not
ripe, even if contemplated. There will
be time enough for this after the confer
enee between the grand officers, feder-
ated board, general manager and re-
ceiveTs has been held, and the COM
pany's
Final UItimatnm-
has been issued. Should these people
all come to terms, then no necessity for
a strike would be apparent. Those di-
rectly affected, as well as the grand Off
GERS, are wise enough to keep their own
counsel as to the programme for the flu
ture. A few days ago Grand Chief
Clark in an interview said that in the
event of a strike, such would be brought
about by means of a vote from all the
employees on the line. This would save
considerable time, as the votes would be
in writing and would be mailed here.
Then again, as unanimous vote by the
grand officers would be necessary,
the improbability of such a move is

THE IRoNCLAD LAW.
Labor Commissioner Powers and the 500
Road VIII Have a Round In Court.

Labor Commissioner Powers and the 500
Road VIII Have Round In Court.
ST. PAUL Feb 7.-State Labor Com
missioner Powers held long confer
ence with General Manager Underwood
of the 500 road in Minneapolis, when
the question Of the enforcement of the
so-called ironclad~law was discussed in
all its different phases. For some time
Mr.. Powers has intended to bring the
matter of the observance of the law into
force. At this meeting the commits
sioner learned that the road took the
ground that the law was unconstitu-
tional and was given to understand that
it would test it through the courts, step
by step, if necessary, until the highest
tribunal in the country had declared it
valid or invalid.
VIII Begin the Suit.
Mr.. Powers went to the county attor-
ney and asked him to draw up papers
against the company compelling it to
adhere to the provisions of the law.
Specific cases were mentioned which
include. the alleged discharge of some of
the boilermakers, of three conductors,
and of Roich, one of the machinists,
whom it is claimed was let out about
th:ee weeks ago, one of the alleged
reasons being that he was union man.
The county attorney, as soon as he can
do SO, will begin the suit as requested
by Mr.. Powers.
81 had long talk with Mr.. Under
WOOD" said the labor commissioner,
'tand we discussed the law from our re-
spectiye points of view. Mr.. Under
wood claims that if man comes to him
and wants job, and he refuses to give
him one because he is union man, he
is not violating the law, because the man
is not an employee of the road until he
has been hired and put to work.
Now, while he may be right on that, it
does not follow that a man in his employ
can be discharged because the officials
find that he belongs to some organiza-
ton. Mr.. Underwood, however, claims
that the
Entire Law Is Unconstitutional,
and so we have decided to bring these
cases and test its validity. | have some
strong specific cases, and when the mat
ter does reach the court our side will be
as strong rs it would be possible for us
to have it. think the law is all right,
and if it is we want to have it enforced.
Mr.. Underwood says that if the law is
declared constitutional by the supreme
court ne will remove the shops of the
500 road into some state where such
law is not on the statute books.p

The Sexes in Politics.

Some one has said that the sexes really hate
each other, and finds evidence of this in the al
legged fact that men prefer the company of men
and women prefer the company of women. We
believe the conclusion to be erroneous, but there
is probability that woman, when the right of
suffrage is conferred upon her, will show par
TALLY to her own sex. This was somewhat
observable i'll the last campaign in Illinois. 1t
was not uncommon to have a woman express
her determination to vote for the women candi-
dates for the trustees of the University on
whichever ticket their names might appear. 1t
is rather natufal that this should be so. The
sameness of nationality or condition is pretty
apt to lead to clannishness Capital stands by
itself; the people of one race stick together in
the main and the social and political line be-
tween our different nationaltiea is generally
very distinctly drawn. Why should not the
women, as voters, be clannish And what if
they were ? The only evil effect that we can see
would be that of dividing our people into class
es. The least there is of that the better. But the
women cannot administer government worse
than the men do. They might administer it bet
ter, and if they ever get the ballot, and wish to
antagonze the men politically, let them go it.
Their elevation to office might work wonders
The big, brutal bruiser, who goes about election
day knocking people down, smashing ballot
courage to ask woman for office; he would not
get it. That would be big gain.-Farmer's
Voice.

THE COMING MEN.

Now look out for one of the greatest scranl-
bles for Office that Kansas has ever seen. LOOK
for bribery without end, and the certainty that
brains or patriotism will not be in it. The OLD
game of Kansas Republicans will be played Tor
all there is in it, and the man with the biggest
pile will win the prize. The bribery in which
7. 7. Ingalls, INDUCED on one occasion will pale
into insignifcance compared with what Will
probably ensue when the Legislature meets
The two great prizes to be played for are United
States senator and state printer. Burton, Hooo'
Thatcher, Ady, and Morrill, in the background
are the prominent candidates for senator. Bur
ton has the reputation of being moral leper,
which, however, will not hurt him in his party
as now constituted; but he is not BANKER
which is against him. Hoods chief recon-
mendation is his occupation, with "bar'P' in
sight. Thatcher is one of the most upright
Republicans in this state, and, therefore, can
not be elected. Ady is as cold-booded as the
car of Russia, and therefore, fitted to carry
out the schemes of the money power. His
chances are good for that reason only Morrill,
is only possible choice, but winner II he
goes into the fight.
This is a very promising array OF candidates.
with not one man on the peoples side.
For state printer, Hudson, OF the Topeka
Capital, and Crane, general roustabout Tor the
rings, are prominent, but one or two others
have recently entered the field, Felt, OF the
Atchison Champion, being the most widely
known. If lying will win Hudson is in it big
If sneaking has the most influence, Crane is in
it. Felt is too honest He has outlived hon.
est politics Gin his party, and, therefore, is on
a will-o' -the-wisp chase.
For the rest of the Offices there are anywhere
from fifty to five hundred applicants for each
place, with the biggest rascal in the lead.
1t may not pan out as we predict, but we can
safely bet that the long-headed, INSCRIPTIONS
schemers who have led in the campaign will be
amply rewarded, and to look for honest men IN
that lot of slanderers and liars would be about
as reasonable as looking for the same fellows in
Heaven after death.

The Kansas Populist Vote Larger Than Ever
Before.

The Populist vote in Kansas at the recent
election was 49, 1928. This is the largest vote
the party ever cast in that State. The Demo-
cratic vote was 27,677, being 9o,551 less than
the Populist vote. 1t appears that the Demo-
cratic loss is largely Republican gain. When
Lewelling was elected he had the Democratic
endorsement. The Republican vote this year
was 14S,737. In 1892 for President it was 81
237. There is no telling what the Popullst
vote in 1892 was, as the Weaver electors were
endorsed and voted for by the Democrats.
Weaver received 1853, III, but that being DEM
ocratic tidal wave year, it is reasonable to sup
pose that $4,000 Of the votes that Weaver re-
ceived in that State were Democratic votes
this would leave the Populist vote of 90, 49,
III, while this year it is 1898. In 1890,
Willis, Populist candidate for governor, re-
ceived zoe, 972, but ran some 5000 or 1000
behind his ticket, the balance of Popullst can
didates for state Offices receiving somewhere III
the vicinity of 10000 votes
So that at no election has the Populist vote in
Kansas been so large as this year.
The Kansas Populists are moving forward all
the time and the chances for recruits are better
now than during the past two years, because
the State being under Populist administration
the party was held more or less responsible tor
the hard times, though what state legislation
that could have given relief was defeated by the
Republican legislature.
We feel that Kansas, as we'll as every other
State west of the Missouri river is safe for the
Peoples party candidate for president in 90
Missouri World.

SLUMPING.

ANY man with an ounce of brains ought to
know that the late slump was not due to Demo-
cratic tariff legislation, since Democratic con-
gress virtually proclaimed the party protec-
ton party. The difference between the two
parties, now, being largely in the amount OF
protection. Neither is the late vote vote OF
confidence. This is conceded by some OF the
ablest journals in the United States 1t must
be, then, that it is vote of blind, unreasoning
unrest, which may be repeated two years hence,
and may be ever repeated again and again un-
til we reach higher plane of government or
permit our republic to fall to pieces. AS the
camper in blizzard gains no relief from shift
ing first one and then the other side to the
freezing blasts, so will not the laboring voter
gain relief by changing parties, since both par
ties blow blizzard for the American masses.
Unfortunately, too vitality is lowered at every
shift Erect shelter

A FEW really well-meaning Republican edit
ors are at heart disguised at the mad rush now
being made upon the capitol at Topeka by the
hungry horde of vampires and blood-suckers
that have lived for so many years at the public
crib, and who haven't the ability to earn an
honest living. Theirs is weak protest. however,
and will count for nothing. When those fellows
get back into their old places, these directors
will just settle back into their holes and spew

A paper that will be read with great interest
by all who have made any study of the Silver
Question is the Hon. George Wilson'S criticism
of David A. Wells arguments for monometalism
in the December Arena. Mr.. Wilson is the
president of the Oldest bank in Missouri, but he
writes from the standpoint of the bimetalists
and claims to have all the weight of authority
and history and centuries of experience, in all
countries, in both henispheres, in all ages, and
all forms of government, on his side. 1t is
paper that will be widely read and discussed by
all students of American economic literature, to
which Mr.. Wells is a frequent contributor, and
so is familiar to the general reading public.
Those who enjoy lively controversy between
two able and acute minds can turn to this paper
certain of getting an intellectual exhilaration.

ACETATE.

Even flies can torment an elephant. The
despised Populists have made the grand old
parties uneasy, and also have made the ring-
sters as mad as disturbed hornets What Stir
we have made and now they are believing Tor
peace. A general cry for cessation of agitation
is going up all along the line OF Plutocracy.
And why Simply because there is something
wrong, and if agitation continues, enough OF
the voters will discover the wrong to be able to
right it.
Agitate Agitate Agitate Agitation is the
life of republic. tits the conspiracy OF silence
that enabled Shylock to foist upon the people
our present financial system, and it is the con-
spiracy of silence that enables Shylock to keep
it there If there was one honest Republican
and Democratic journal to each county that ex-
posed the rottenness of the old parties, there
would be quite another kind of slump to that OF
recent date. The Populists will continue to
"cry and spare not" since that is the only way
reach and arouse the masses.
