"Organized Want"

WASHINGTON, May 23.-Representative
Davis and Mr.. Taubeneck have been max
ing a careful estimate of the bands of
Coxeyites on the way to Washington. and
they claim there are 5000 men tramping or
riding on boats or borrowed trains toward
the capital. Mr.. Davis does not believe in
the wisdom or efficacy of the Coxey move
ment and has written a magazine article
in which he points out that the movement
is a result of currency contraction, and
summarizes 1t as "organize1 want" If
the government should yield to Coxeys de-
mand other armies would march on the
capital with other demands, and the result
would be government by the multitude.
The remedy for the present state of bus
iness he finds in the ballot, which he de-
fines as recorded opinion
mo Coxeyites have come from Kansas"
he said, in a conversation the subject,
because Kansas has expressed herself
properly by her elections, and Nebraska
which is largely a Populist State, has con-
tributed not more than seventy-five men
to the movement" BY imprisoning the
leaders, he said. the authorities had made
a swan out of goose. The chief danger
from the movement he thinks. will devel-
op next fall, when the weather becomes
too cold for man to camp out doors. Then
he looks for trouble.

agreement could be made, and that he

called out ''If it be not done very soon
you will see some dirty work." he said, re-
ferring TO the desperate purpose of the
strikers to win the fight He expressed the
opinion that soon the conditions are
right the Indiana operators and miners
would get together and reach an agree
ment five minutes afterwards.
The strikers at Rosedale to-day side
tracked eight cars of coal on their way
north on the Chicago e. Indiana Coal road
At the same place four cars Of coal being

of that road were also sidetracked.

La Fontaine, said one of the most
brilliant critics and wits Of the famous
fable writer's time, lis such a fool that
he does not know he has more genius
than Esop or Phedrus.'
, In truth. he was a severe critic of his
own york. He attended the first presen-
tation Of his 'Astree, " and sat near
some ladies who did not know him. At
some Of the important passages he ex-
claimed: THAT is wretched! That is
ahrslrd.'
When they protested that it was
good, and that it was by the great La
Fontaine, he rejoiMd:
THAT makes 10 difference. The
piece is bad. IHvSw that La Fontaine
you are speaking of. He's a stupid fell
loY. He's myself"
Then he went out, entered a cafe and
went to sleep in a corner. Some OF his
friends found him there and inquired
why he wasn't listening to "Astree.
"Oh, " said the author, rousing him
self and sitting a yawn, 81 just came
away. The first part displeased me
greatly. No one agreed with what l said
