NOVEMBER is not so far away that the
people will forget that the Populists-so

proved OF its violence, denounced the
Government for interfering to preserve
the law, and to cap the climax furnished
material aid. arms and supplies, encour-
agement and words of cheer to those re-
sisting the Government and defying the

SACRAMENTO AND THE STRIKE
Opinion of Los Angeles Critic-Where
Harm Has Been Done.
los Anqeles Time

Los Angeles Times.
In Sacramento the trouble is about end
ed, and large number of the strikers
are applying to be taken back to work.
Several hundred men have returned to
work in the shops, after having signed an
agreement to withdraw from the Ameri-
can Railway Union. The people of Sac
ramento have maintained their peculiar
position until the very last, the City
Board of Trustees having on Monday
adopted resolutions condemning the
troops for using their bayonets and guns
and assuming the powers OF the local au-
thorities. 1t is almost a pity thu t the
people of Sacramento could not have
been left to the mercy of the strikers for
month or two longer. They might have
learned something by that time. AS 1T
is, they are likely to find out how they
have injured the reputation of their city
after the present trouble is all over. A
capitalist would certainly be regarded as
more or less insane just at present if he
should talk about establishing an enter
prise Of any kind in Sacramento.

The California militiamen have now
demonstrated that they are not disloyal;
they have, under proper conditions,
proved that they command the respect of
law breakers, and that they are not afraid
to face danger, not unwilling to do duty,
or slow to defend the flag.
The record-union., 1894-07-21

ONE lesson the people have thoroughly
learned in the late strike is this, that
labor and capital are not antagonistic
forces, struggling to get the better of each
other. They are interdependent forces,
and it is only when their natural relation
is disturbed that there is apparent an
tagonism.

OPPORTUNITY TO REFLECT.
We Fresno Erpo8itor saws:

The pay-car of the oppressor of labor is en-
route TO the interior TO dispense the highest
wages to its employees, both to the strikers and
to its faithful men, that are paid by any
similar organization in the United states.
When the strikers take their last pay they
viii probably reflect that when the trouble
was first sprung they all declared that they
had no grievance whatever with their en-
ployers.
When, where before from 1900 to 5000
wage-esrners were employed by this
same "oppressor." there is adopted the
policy of limiting all such groups to
about 500, perhaps the citizens of such
centers of industry who applaudsd dis
loyalty, encouraged ingratitude and gave
comfort and assistance to lawlessness for
fear they might lose a pennyworth of
trade, will cogitate upon the wisdom of
having given in allegiance to the boycott,
the most cOwardly and infamous of
weapons,
BY.what sort of American logic can the
union printers of Chicago justify their
appeal to the President to withhold the
arm of the Government while rioters
went on burning cars, destroying tracks
and blocking the business of the country?
In that appeal there was great deal of
talk about liberty and freedom and
patriotism. In plain English, the appeal
was for the suspension of the law that
riot and bloodshed might continue. Has
il come to this, that freedom shall be in
voked to aid In the cutting Of the throat
of liberty and the burial of free govern
ment? Is this the idea entertained by
printers Of freedom? In the name OF
liberty many frightful wrong has been
done, but history discloses no such an
infamous claim in the name of liberty as
the union printers of Chicago preferred.
Is the conception of free governments by
this generation so faulty ss this Can 1t
be true that the men of the printing craft
OF to-day have so far driftsd away from
the traditions of the republic that they no
longer have any true idea of what free
government and representative system
mean9 These Chicago printers told the
President that Hths cause of liberty and
patriotism is dying" With them svi-
IDENTIFY it is already corpse; they have,
we fear, SO far drank Of the intoxioant OF
anarchical and oommunistio fallaciss that
their moral sense is paralyzsd and the
capacity to estimate the torch, the
bludgeon, the dagger and the boyoott ct
their true value is gone. These men are
simply lunatics. raving madmsn. irrs-
sponsible beings, when they stand for
ward and in the name Of the Art Prss
servative beseech the Chief Magistrate Of
the Nation to let riot run and murder and
arson be free from the leash Of the law.
The fact is that the union printers OF
Chicago, by their petition to the Presir
dent, dishonored and shamsd calling
that ought to have the respect OF men.

There are 832 pages. Lots OF maps

map 23x33 inches.
People wanted them, but couldn't
afford sre and kept asking for the
old "EIarper's Weekly during the
War" After the pictures had been
put into this big, new, complete his
tory, the old Weekly plates were de-
streyed and now those files are scarce.
But the big history was SO inter-
esting, and, being compiled from all
the official records, was SO COM
plete and valuable that thousands
bought it
Now it is all cut up and everybody
is getting it and being surprised.
1t is made into rs big parts; 3a
big pages in each, and printed on
nice supercalendered paper-better
than ever before-and has hand
some buff cover with emblematic de-
sign On each part.
The parts have sold as high as 81
each, but can be got for only 8 cents
each if you know how. The

that, but the story and copies OF

papers of priceless historic value, all

When the Federation of Labor met in
Chicago some three months ago it was de-
cided by a majority vote to invite John
Burns. the English labor leader, to visit
the United States and deliver series of
addresses with view of securing a greater
unity of effort in the direction of ameliorat-
ing the condition of the laboring people.
Since then nothing has been heard of the
and several inquiries have been
made by persons in search of the reason
why. 1t worid really be a good thing for
the working man of this country if he were
to sit for awhile at the feet of John Burns
and absorb some of the common sense
which that remarkable man scatters so
freely. 1t would also be a good thing for
John Burns were he to see for himself the
tremendous differences there are between
the conditions of the English and the Amert-
can toiler. Even after the prolonged fnan-
cial depression with which this country
has been afflicted, the American working
man is very much better off than his Brit
ish brother; an interchange of facts and
opinions between the labor leaders who
reside on one side or other of the Atlantic
would be highly and mutually beneficial to
the countries concerned.

Gov. O'Ferran of Virginia has a foeman
worthy of his steel in the great gambling
combination that is now endeavoring to
permanently establish itself within the
territory over which he Eas a great deal of
jurisdiction. The first effort made by the
gamblers since the closing of the jackson
City pool rooms by the Mushbach law was
made yesterday. when three alleged trot-
ting races were run at the st. Asaph Driv-
ing Park. There the bookmakers were in
force. and, having teiegraphic communion

Washington are thankful for the small in
crease of distance which the Mushbach law
has placed between them and the so-called
race track, but the decent people of Viz
ginia will hardly be delighted at the change.
There are intimations to the effect that
Gov. O'FerraH has behind him an old
statute which. If enforced. will result in
the Imprisonment of every one detected
gambling within the state; if such a law is
in existence the governor will speedily put

If Representative StCckdale of Missis-

who know him well have always believed
him TO be, he will, at the earliest possible
moment, secure as much as he needs of

able apology for his hbelous comment or
the character Of Civil Service Commits
sioner Roosevelt. Several days ago Mr.
Stockdale declared to the HoIse of Repre-
sentatives and to the country generally
that Mr.. Roosevelt was corrupt" \ more
unjust assault was never made than that
for Of all the men who serve this country
either officially or unoificialy. not one is
more honorable. more thoroughly con-
scientious. than is Theodore Roosevelt
From the beginning of his public career
Mr.. Roosevelt has been a shining mark for
the inscriptions politicians of all parties
and these have permitted no abusive OPP
portunity to pass, but not even the most
persistent singer of anti-civil-service-r re-
form Billingsgate ever accused Theodore
Roosevelt Of anything approaching dis
honesty. Actuated only by principles of
the highest sort Mr.. Roosevelt has labored
lCng and faithfully in behalf of govern
mental cleanliness and his efforts have
many obstacles. Representative Stock
dale's insult-fred from behind the i'm
Tenetrabie breastwork of congressional
privilege-cannot injure the man at whom
it was aimed. but the recoil will injure
Mr. Stockdale very considerably unless he
makes prompt ret-actiOn.

1t is surprising and at the same time dis
tressing that the Senate should waste an
entire afternoon in talk over the form of
real estate conveyances in the District
while Senator Vest was sitting by help
lessly awaiting an opportunity to secure
consideration for the much-pOstponed bill
providing for the new Printing Office. The
discussion Of the matter of real estate law
in this city may be profitable in committee.
or at some time in the Senate when there
IS nothing OF greater importance TO occupy
the attention of the legal minds of that
body; but when the necessity for a new
Printing Office has grown into n dangerous
emergency and when the tariff bill is press
ing close upon the heels of the Senate. the
devotion of entire afternoon to such
debate as fills the pages of the Congress
ional Record this morning seems to indi-
cate a lamentable blindness to the ur
gencies of the case. As Mr.. Vest well said
some weeks ago. when the Printing Office
bill had the riGht Of way in the Senate,
time has come to be an element of greater
importance in this case than money.
Hundreds of human lives are daily in the
gravest danger. when a few hours, or per-
haps only a few minutes of hard work in
the Senate would put the bill in such shape
that conclusion could be easily reached
between the two Houses. Under ordinary
circumstances the need of haste would not
be apparent but added to the we'll
known dangers threatened by the old shell
now in use by the typographical and bind
ing department of the Government there is
the probability that the tariff bill. once on
the senatorial ways, will remain there for
many weeks to the exclusion of everything
else. To be sure there is wide difference
of opinion between the two Houses on this
subject, and the Senate proposal may not
be the wiser. but should the Senate once
get a bill through. the danger of a 1egis-
lative blockade would be practically passed.
and the differences could well and easily be
settled in a conference. There should be
no more obstacles thrown in the way of
Mr.. Vest and his bill

and he was a lieutenant-colonel during a
part of his service as such and brigadier-
general when he was again at the head of
the army. Why should the law as it now
Is be changed? 1t is not at all discredit-
able to major-general commanding the
army to say that the generals named
achieved more of fame than has fallen to
his lot and were therefore entitled to more
rank; and the country generally will CO.
incide with the idea that none of the less
distinguished. although perhaps very faith
full. should be needlessly promoted at con-
siderable expense. Ordinarily, brevet rank
does not carry with it any privileges worth
having. but the proposition now before Con-
gress contemplates giving to a brevet lieu
tenant-general all the compensation which
would go with the full rank-something like
fifteen thousand dollars per annum. The re-
formers have begun at the wrong end. The
enlisted men of the army now have to
drink copiously of the liquid and intoxicat-
ing stores sold at the ''post-exchanges" in
order that profits sufficient to provide the
men with enough rations to satisfy their
hunger may accrue. There is no provision
in the army appropriation bill for the re-
moval of this national stigma, but there is
proposition to cheaper great honor
and in the doing thereof to expend several
thousand dollars that could properly be APP
piled to some useful and meritorious pur-
pose. Medals of honor, intended for the
decoration only of the eonspicuously gal
liant, have been scattered so lavishly that in
many instances they are really valueless.
Let US save the exalted rank and the in
creased pay and allowances for warriors Of
phenomenal repute-men whose names are
