To Benefit tho Armv.

A new rifle, formerly called the
hragJorginson, is being introduced
IN the United States Army. 1t will
be put to the severest tests before
being placed in general use. This
gun carries six shells, uses a smoke.
less powder and is 80 caliber, in.
stead OF 45, as Is the present infantry
rifle. .at,'.
The War Department is now expert
menting with ali American invention
OF smokelees powder, known as the
Leonard, and it is believed it is a sue,
cess. At present the department is
compelled to use powder of German
invention and manufacture. 1t is the
opinion of army officers that some
change will be male in the rifle be,
fore it comes into general use in the
army. The demand just now is for a
lighter piece.
The old Springfield weighs nine
pounds, the same as the new maya
zine gun. 1t is believed by using an
aluminium handle the sword bayonet
In place of metal as now, that the
weight will be reduced ne a1ly pound
Aluminium is the coming metal for all
the most useful articles. Experiments
are being made with alloys, which
will render it one of the strongest and
ightest metals in use for horse shoes
trimmings for harness, saddles, ETC.,
and will be generally utilized by the
Government. An entire set OF
aluminium horse shoes will weigh less
than an ordinary steel shoe.-Enter-

The Silver Plank.

Following is the silver plank of the
California Democratic platform:
We denounce as hypocritical and
insincere the declaration of the Re-
publican Convention Of this State in
favor of free coinage of silver, coupled
as it is with an Endorsement Of the
Republican party, the party which de-
monetized silver in 1873, which at
every opportunity during the past
twenty years has been the willing
tool of the money jugglers in whose
interests the currency of the country
has been contracted and the nation
impoverished. In further proof of
the hypocrisy Of the Republican dec
laration on this question we point to
the fact that with one solitary excep-
ton California's Republican delega-
ton in Congress, during recent strug-
giles for justice, cast it's entire vote
against silver. .s-
I'VE favor the retirement of all gold
coins and paper currency below the
denomination OF $40 in order to re.
store silver to it's full use as a circu.
lating medium. We also favor the
reopening of the mints of the United
States to the coinage Of both gold and
silver without discrimination on such
basis rs will maintain their parity,
thus giving both metals such recogni.
ton as they enjoyed prior to the Re
publican decentralization Act Of 1873

it was only last year that the house be-
gan to get near completion. In the
meantime his health had become less
and less vigorous. His age and his years
Of hard work and worry began to tell
upon him. The superstition came back
with renewed force, and he began to
think a great deal about it. At last he
became absolutely convinced that should
he move in the first function to which
his friends would come would be his fu-
neral. Then he decided that he would
not even keep the house in the family.

IMPORTANT ISSUES
Involved in the Trial of Oebs ct
al. for Contempt.
CASE WILL BE FOUGHT TO THE END

Going to the Supreme Court if the Gov
eminent Wins Before Judge WOODY
Matters That Are Involved In the Trial
and contentions OF the Lawyers for Each
Side Briefly Stated-The Notable Case
Regime at Chicago.
CHICAGO. Sept. cor grave moment in
she opinion Of many will be the final out
some Of the proceedings begun before
Judge Woods, of the United States court,
when President F. V. Debs and his fellow
officials of the American Railway Union
appeared to answer why they should not
be punished for contempt in having vio-
lated an injunction issued out of the
federal courts. Involved in the issue of
the case are the scope and jurisdiction of
federal judges in matters of importance
in which the courts have recently estab-
lished new method of procedure. Its
fiual adjudication will determine how far
the federal courts may go in the use of
the injunction and power to punish for
contempt.
Will Go to tho Supreme Court.
To degree the right of trial by jury in
| certain criminal cases will be settled by
n
the leaders Of organized labor believe, the
liberty OF the citizen and the federal guar
antee that he shall not be deprived Of his
freedom without due process of law are
inextricabiy involved in the apparently
simple question Of whether Debs AMI his
associates are guilty of contempt of court.
Should Judge Woods decide against the
defendants in the case on hearing there
| is no doubt but it will be carried to the
supreme court OF the United States and
every point in the controversy will be
| fought to the bitter end by able counsel.
Debs, his associates and legal advisers
contend that the judicial methods en-
ployed during the late labor troubles are
Illegal and unconstitutional
Claim of the Defendants.
1t is held that for a judge to issue an
| injunction restraining persons from COM
| uniting crimes for which the statutes pro-
vide penalties, and then, in the event that
| the offense be committed, to summon the
offender before him and send him to fail
Tor contempt of the injunction, is sub
| version of the law. As we'll, they assert,
might a court send out an injunction
| against burglary, and then, the burglary
having been committed and the culprit
| caught, the judge should send him to Jail
for contempt instead of trying him before
jury for the crime OF burglary.
Purpose OF the Interstate Law.
The adoption Of this doctrine would, it
is claimed, do away with the jury trials
altogether and vest all power in the court.
1t is further contended that the use of
the injunctional methods under the power
supposed to be conferred on the courts by
the Interstate commerce law is a perver-
sion OF the statute. The interstate COM
merce act is not riot gun act to quell
disorderly mobs, but an effort by the gov
eminent to bring railroad corporations
doing interstate commerce within the
| jurisdiction Of the law. To this the gov
eminent replies that the language of the
interstate law covers the case and that is
all that is necessary.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1894-09-06
SOME ASSERTIONS AND DENIALs.
Government Alleges and A. Il. Z. Leaders
Deny Conspiracy.

Government Alleges and A. Il. Z. Leaders
Deny Conspiracy.
The bill OF the government and the rail-
roads asking for an injunction charged
that Debs and his associates had formed
conspiracy to obstruct interstate COM
merce and the United States mail trains.
The labor leaders assert that this is un-
true: that no such conspiracy existed; that
the American Railway Union was an or
ganization entirely within the law and
peaceable IN its aims and purposes, and
that should the practice of injunc.t,ps
and contempt inaugurated In the federal
courts during the late strike be sustained
by the supreme court labor organizations
would be crushed out of existence by
courts.
10 these arguments the lawyers for the
government will oppose the contention
that only by drastic restrictive measures
could the mobs be controlled, and that
American Railway Union officials having
begun the conflict Of which lawlessness
became an incident should be held re-
sponsible. So that the momentous aues-
tions Of the power Of the courts. the rights
OF the citizen in certain contingencies, the
possibility of the continued existence Of
labor unions, the construction of the in
terstate commerce law, and the relation
OF the judiciary to the people are involved
| in the case now on hearing before Judge
Woods.
The court room was crowded when the
case began, and there was quite an array
OF counsel on each side. Outside the rail-
ing sat many of the members Of the
American Railway Union. Among them
were Vice President George w. Howard,
Secretary keliher and L. w. Rodgers,
three OF the four principal defendants. L.
V. Debs was not in court until noon
and was looking ILL., The proceedings con-
sisted only of testimony of Manager +. A.
Milford, of the Western Union Telegraph
company aud the introduction by him of
kilograms sent or received by American
railway officials subsequent to the njunc-
ton.
The defense moved for trial by jury
first thing, but the judge overruled the
motion for the present. He said: Il don't
think this case differs from other con-
tempt cases, and l will for the present
overrule your motion. / will hear from
you, il you wish, on this point later, but
think I'll hear some of Tho evidence first. I"
He thought the case easygo settle. "The
Gist of the question here is whether these
respondents in violation of the order of
the court, interfered with mail trains and
interstate commerce"
A sensation was caused when it was
shown that the last clause of the noted
by gun" telegram was q message to
personal friends, and that it had been left
out OF the message rs fled with the court,
and mild attempt was made to show
that the government was not acting in
good faith, but Milchrist disclaimed any
purpose OF garbling the telegram. and
Judge Woods said: NOW, / read that
Telegram in the newspapers and don't
think it amounted to much. The express
sion is an old one. / heard it years ago in
the west. Save your money and buy gum
was common saying. Take care of
yourself is about the meaning of it.''
