This raan Enright is one of gang of

some two years ago, and who was the
only one to escape arrest at the time,
the others being ca tured at Dallas

there and as soon as Marion county is

charge the sheriff of Linn will want

TIE governor Of California must
be a wooden man. While the
capital was in the hands Of a law
less mob, he permitted himself to
remain at a sdmmer resort enjoy
ing himself and by use Of the
telegraph endeavored to secure
from the mob permission to bring
his private Car over the lines OF
The Southern Pacific to Sacra-
ment0. The duty Of the hour de
manded his presence at the capi
tai and if it could not be reached
by rail, he should have employed
other means OF transit. Horses
are plentiful, and were he pos
sessed of any OF the essentials of
an executive and alive 10 the
situation, Lis destination would
have been reached on horseback.
When once at his post OF duty
every national 9uardsman in the
state should have cen ordered
OHt and he at their head should
hen march against the infuriated
strikers at Sacramento and cause
them to disperse. Governors who
consider their individual pleasure

state are worse than useless be

ORGANIZED LABOR.

The continual howl about the
poor laborer who is being robbed
by the corporations, is fast becom-
ing both tiresome and disgusting.
The fact is, the American people
feel deep interest in the honest,
loyal working man who goes about
his business and does his duty
! faithfully and well, and they sym
pathize with him sincerely when
ever he is oppressed and will bend
every energy to improve his con-
dition. But the majority of labor
ing men, such as are employ d by
corporations. have lost their
individuality by identifying
themselves with labor unions
and in so doing they become their
own worst enemies. Not that
labor has no right to be Or
ganized, fer it has, and should do
so Tor its own edification and ad-
vancement. But wherein lies the
fault of the present system of or
ganized labor is its antagoniza-
/ ton of capital. The interests of
the laborer and those of the cap
italist are identical and the best
of feeling should therefore exist
! between them. The whole trou-
bic lies in the fact that socialism
and anarchy has been propagated
by the worst foreign element until
its feeling of unrest and discon-
tentment has permeated the mind
of nearly every workingman in
the country. This feeling has
caused the organization, through
out the length and breadth of free
America, of labor Unions,
whose leaders thrive on the mis-
fortunes of their underlings. Ii
the laborers would only see the
falacy Of the teachings Of their
leaders and throw off the yoke
that oppresses them they would
soon be better off. Individuali-
ny ana aDllltV Woulu assert
themselves. Men would see
that such fellows as Debs and
Sovereign are endeavoring to for
ward their own selfish interests
rather than of those whom they
profess to be serving. Labor
would then receive its just reward
according to the ability and swift
ness of the laborer. Compensa-
tinn would then be rern'afed az
corUing to the individual merit of
each employee rather than accord
ing to the present system that al
lows to each person in a certain
class the same wage regardless OF
his merit or ability.

Ike mob and prevent violence and
the strike was soon broken.
Other means than strikes should
be resorted to in the settlement Of
differences between employees and
employers. In this instance mem
bers of the American Railway
Union are guilty of conspiracy
against Pullman; against the rail
road companies that haul his cars;
against the state of Illinois and
everv other state in the union and
even against the government OF
the United States. This is Il peni-
tentiarv ofIense, and the leaders Of
the present strike and those who
have resorted to violence should
be vigorously prosecuted and pun
ished. Anarchy should not be
allowed to run riot. Men should
learn that governments are formed
and laws enacted for the purpose
Of preventing crime and the pro-
lection Of society. When it fails
to accomplish this then it has lost
its power and anarchy reigns su-
preme.

MUCH fault is found with the
action of the national guard in
some localities, and as result.
there may be an effort set on foot
to do away with it altogether. A
comparison of the national troops
with the militia is unfair to the
latter. Not because it is made up
of an inferior lot Of men, for it is
not, bat because the discipline
maintained in the regular army is
more rigid and which makes it
more formidable in suppressing
riots than the national guard.
This fault lies, not 50 much IN
the men as in their officers, who
are often selected more on ac-
count Of their popularity than be
cause Of their ability and fitness
for the positions. Rather than the
disbanding of state troops there
should be an effort to increase
their efficiency.

THE FEDERAL PEACE FORCE.

National authority is exerted to
maintain order and enforce the
laws in two ways, one direct and
primary, the other supplementary
and secondary. Its two separate
and distinct functions ought not to
be confused in the public mind, as
they often are these days.
National authority is exerted
directly, through officers of the
federal courts (marshals and their
deputies) and through the regular
army when civil force fails, to en-.
force and execute the laws OF
congress. This is done simply
upon representation that it is
necessary. Among The federal
laws enforced IN this way are those
TO secure prompt and effective pas
sage Of United States mail and tor
protection Of interstate commerce
For these purposes, federal author
ity is original and universal. 1t
exists in all parts of the country
side by side with state authority
for other purposes, and is eXer-
cised when required, wi, hout con-
sulting state officers and without
in the least invading or superced
ing their simultaneous jurisdic
ton.
This is the only way in which
federal authority has been eX
erted so far in the present trouble.
Deputies have been employed in
many places and regular troops in
some, to protect mail trains, tC
prevent interference with inter
state commerce and to guard
property Of railroads in charge OF
federal courts under receivers hip
proceedings. Neither troops nol
deputies have been employed any
where for general police purposes
to repress riot, to protect property
other than that in charge Of fed
eral courts, or to guard trains
ether than those carrying the
mails 0; engaged in interstate com
merce.
All these local police functions
belong originally to the states anC
cannot be exercised hy fedora
power except on application or de
! >tructIon Ot the state authorities
It is to this use Of the iedera
! lover, t. enforce stale laws Whel
state police agencies h"v: rr"Ven
.aIeI. GIVE. at constitutional and
statutory limitations apply, and
10 ih.s u=e Only. Before sending
troops into Il state for general
police duty, to maintain the peace
or enforce state laws, the presi-
dent must receive an application
from the legislature or, the legis
lature hot being i'll session, from
the governor. Or he must have
evidence that the state power is
overtErown or paralyz2d. Before
! proceeding III any OF these
cases, however, he must issue Il
proclamation calling upon riotous
persons to disperse within rea-
sonable time.
None of these formalities are
necessary when troops are used
merely to enforce and execute
federal laws within the several
states. Until they are complied
with, however, federal troops must
limit their efforts strictly 10 fed
eral purposes, and not endeavor
to execute general police power
This is just what General Miles is
doing in Chicaso.-Oregonian.
