handled. The telegraph gives daily news OF
the converging upon the Rational capital OF
bands or men alleged 10 be out OF work, who
however, make no effort 10 obtain work, but
who are on their way TO Washington for the
purpose of presenting strangely diversified
petitions that the Government shall take
some action which shall immediately put
men to work. We do net deny the
honesty OF some of those who have started
this campaign. There are a number of honest
men in the Mclean insane asylum. and many
more equally honest men who might with
advantage TO themselves and the community
be given accommodations in that and other
similar institutions.
IL Is safe To say that the alleged industrial
armies that are marching under the control
of Messrs. toxey. Swift and others contain
practically no one who voted for either Cleve-
land or Harrison. Ii is doubtful IL they rep
resent more than meagre minority of those
who voted for either Weaver or Bidwell. the
two other Presidential candidates. This crowd
really represents only Itself. In large coun-
try. such as the United States has now grown
to be. II Is possible, at any time, TO collect
from the discontented band which locally
considered, may be formidable In its extent.
Each of our large cities has thousands Of
lawless men Nho would not work
for living il by any possibility they could
maintain themselves by plundering their
neighbors. Collect these aggregates together
let each city send in its quota. and IT will be
an easy matter 10 assemble 100000 men in
Washington willing To undertake any deed
OF violence.
These men might be led by honest fanatics.
and so long as IL served their purpose 10 fol-
low such Leadership they would doubtless do
So But 10 seriously respect the views of such
collection of men, simply because they had
presented them in large numbers, would be 10
do violence TO the spirit OF our Institutions.
Up to a certain point the Coxey movement
may be treated as n ridiculous and jocose
proceeding, but when that point has been
passed. it is necessary that the civil
and military authorities should have 1t
understood that no disturbance of the
peace will be permitted; that IL men wish TO
petition for legislation. they can do 50. but
that legislation itself will be determined by
what the legislative branches of the govern
ment believe TO be the wishes of the people as
a whole, or at least majority of them.
Any show OF weakness on the part OF the
national authorities will be taken advantage
OF, not by such men as Coxey, Swift, Fitzger-
aid and other honest fanatics of their class.
but by the great mass of men who have en-
listed themselves AS their pretended followers
and who in Washington would probably in
clude. when the time seemed ripe for action,
a large number who did not consider IL neces-
sary To march across the country 10 the capt.
