PULLMAN AND DEBs.

After relating the story of the diff
culties between the Pullman Company
and employees in May, in which he
said that the company had taken con-
tracts at a loss in order to give work
to the employees, and after speaking of
the closing of the Pullman shops be-
cause of strike of the employees, the
Doctor continued.
"Then appeared on the scene one
Debs, who attempted to force all the
railroad companies to refuse to use
Pullman cars, and subsequently con-
cluded to block the commerce of the
country, though he knew that this
course might result in loss and suffer
ing to millions of his fellow-men, ViO-
| lence and terror ensued. On Saturday
! the mob defied once too many times
| the military forces called out to pre-
serve order, and in this country, the
grandest, freest and best in the world
the troops were compelled to shed the
blood of other armed men, who were
resisting with violence the civil and
military authorities of the land. These
are facts hardly credible at the closC
of the nineteenth century. With these
facts looking US in the face, where arr
your rainbows and purple tints
Those optimistic colors are black will
hate and crimson with blood, whateve
we may say about it,"
"When Debs gives the country
twenty flour hours to come to hi
terms, and when he intimates, whethe
for intimidation or as a threat, that
the federal troops fire upon the mob
will be signal for civil war, he is al
anarchist and a tyFant as large as hi
experience, capacity and ignOranC
will allow,

Base Ball.
TWO INTERESTING GAMES THE
PAST WEEK,

Smyrna bas ball enthusiasm is begin.
ming to catch ahold of many of our
citizens. Base ball is the talk of the
day and the better the team work that
Smyrna displays, the more enthusiasm
is aroused. Stevens, the phenomenal
pitcher, is looked upon with pride.
Truax, with his agility is star fielder of
the club and is being rec 1gnized in
other towns as a brilliant player, but
when Jacobs gets at the bat you can
mostly depend on him for a home run.
So all down the line you hear criti-
cisms of individual playing. Smyrna
has good material and can form a crack
nine, but this will avail them little un-
less they get down to harmonious team
work. Practice, constant practice is
what our team needs and until they dc
this, they can't expect to make bril-
| liant victories.

The Gtyat Chicago Strike.
THE EFFORT TO MAINTAIN LAW AN
ORDER

THE EFFORT TO MAINTAIN LAW AND |
ORDER.
At this writing there is little i'm
provement in the situation at Chicago
and the towns where the conflict is
raging between the rioters and the
railroads. President Cleveland has
issued his second proclamation to the
rioters, warning them against acts of
violence and that the laws must be
observed, but with little result for
good. The other labor organizations
have struck in sympathy with the rail-
road strikers, and now there are 100,-
600 men virtually at war with the gov
ernment. The Press thus sums up the
situation:
1.-THE Chicago railroad strike began
two weeks ago, and the entire power
of the Federal, State and local authori-
ties, who have now some 13, 600 troops,
| policemen and deputies on the ground,
has only been able to open the tracks
for three lines, the Northwestern. the
st. Paul and the Baltimore q Ohio,
while the Pennsylvania was able to
move two of its trains
One week ago, when Judge Woods
by his injunction invoked the entire
power OF the United States to suppress
the mob under the interstate commerce
act, and the statutes relating to the
mails, no one anticipated this long de-
lay, and it stands, a remarkable proof
of the difficulty of suppressing a moi
when it has been once allowed to gel
the upper hand. Debs began his
causeless and criminal boycott Tuesday
June 26. On the 9th trains were

On Friday the general managers act

the Chicago lines. By Saturday,

SUNDAY was day of charming tenn
perature, and in this sense a great re-
lief from the two weeks of previous
warm weather, At the Methodist
church the union services of the
Christian Endeavor and the usual
evening church service-from 7 to 8
o'clock-which had been instituted the
previous Sabbath to continue through
july and August, proved decided sue
cess, with fairly well-filled audience
room. The meeting at this early hour,
however, somewhat brings it in con-
flict as to time with the other churches,
made noticeable by the interminable
ringing of the bells (aboHt four times
longer than the bells at churches in

VICTORY OR DEFEAT.

"What is to be the outcome?
"If the strikers are victorious their
victory will turn their heads and their
tyranny will know no limit. If they
are defeated through the Intervention
of the President, the fairness of the at
torney-general and the resoluteness of
the regular army officials, then the
next move of these desperadOes will be
a political one, and will be more dire
full than the present disorder. They
will elect for President an anarchist
like themselves. They will elect mem
bers of Congress from their own ranks.
They may elect the Governor of Illi-
nois, who is doubtless figuring for pro.
motion, They may elect Governor
Stone, of Missouri or Governor Waite,
of Colorado, who to-day appear to be
aiders and abettors of treason. When
such men are in government positions
Debs and his associates can strike and
pillage, burn and carry out their ty-

OF Peacrmaker
BuENos AYREs, Jan. 21.-Advices from
the associated press correspondent at Rio
Janeiro announce that in all probability
Rear Admiral Benham, in command Of
United States war vessels there, has, after
commun icating with the home govern
ment, succeeded in arranging peace be-
tween the government and insurgents
and that the rebellion is likely at an end.
1t is reported that at the close OF the
interview between De Cana and dmiral
Benham, the latter gave assurance that
hc would ask from Washington the neces-
sary authority TO act as a mediator. BEN
ham communicated Gama's request TO
PeiNoto, who expressed his willingness TO
promote the efforts toward peace. Ben.
ham said he received from Washington
authority TO act as mediator aud so noti-
fed Cana aud Peixoto. Accordingly,
PeIxoto sent his secretary on board the
United States flagship, where he met
Cana, and the situation was discussed in
the presence of Benham. The result OF
the conference is not known, but il is be-
leved that the exchange of views will lead
10 the restoration of peace.
Cana is said 10 have made proposals
too favorable to the insurgents aud the
secretary said he did not believe Peixoto
would be able 10 accept them. 1t is be-
lieved that Benham will be able 10 obtain
concessions which will result in an early
settlement. Benham has cabled the sub
stance of the conference TO Washington
10 await additional advlces.
BUENos AYREs, Jan. 27.-It is rumored
here that a ship from New York, loaded
with ammunition for PeiXoto, has been
wrecked. The negotiations for peace be-
tween the insurgents aud the government
have failed and the hostilities at Rio have
been renewed.
