ALWAYS FIGHT FOR THEIR RIGHTS
A Characteristic of English People
Which Is nare In Ame..icAns.


One of the reasons England is such
comfortable place in which TO live, says
Harpe3's H-eektY, is due to the fact that
the English people have the peculiar
habit OF fighting Tor their rights by let
ters to the 1I3HeS or by taking the num-
bers Of cabmen or policemen and appear
ing against them in the morning or by
sending warships into strange narbors
where the Wlndow-paneS OF some Eng
lish merchants have been smashed. II
there were elevated roads in London the
clerk who lives i'll kenSingtOn would not
hang and swing from a strap on his way
10 and from the city. lie would see that
he was given the seat for which he had
paid. The American is too busy ana too
good-natured to fight for his rights, so he
continues to stand. He will learn in
time that the reason the Englishman has
better roads and better streets and better
protection for his life and properly is be-
cause he "nakeS a KICK about 1T" ana
protests a nd growls and is generally dis
agreeable until he gets what he wants.
There was young woman III England
who told me that she and seven or eight
other young people had tranped III slu-
gle tile through gentleman'S dining
room one evening while he and his guests
were at dinner, IN order 10 eStaOllsn
right of way The EnglishMan had built
pathway that had been used for centuries,
and once year the young people OF the
neighbOrlng estates marched across his
lawn and up his stairs and through his
house in order that he should remember
that the right of way still existed. She
was an exceedingly shy and well-bred
young person and of q family quite as
old as the right of way, but it apparently
did not strike her that she was rude III
tramping through a strangers house or,
indeed, that sne was doing anything but
public duty.
There was an Irishnan in the same
county who lived in a small cottage on
an estate, and who was in the habit of
crossing from it to another through the
gateway of very distinguished and
noble gentleman. He had done this for
twenty years, and when the noble gentle
men came into some more money anu
hung two fine iron gates between the
posts, the Irish laborer took a crowbar
and broke the hinges on which they hung
and tramped over them on his way. He
was put in Jail for this for month, at the
end of which time he went after his crow
bar and tore the gates down again. When
he had been in Jail five times in six
months the people round about took up
his case, and the right of way was de-
clared a Just one, and the gates came
down forever.
/ heard of three young barristers when
| was in London who went on a walking
tour. and who laid out their route en-
tirely with the purpose IN view of taking
in all the disputed rights of way in the
counties through which they passed, and
who cheerfully sacrificed themselves for
the good OF others by forcing their way
into houses and across private grounds
and tearing down hedges.

CHICAGO, June l3.--Four hundred

President Eugene V. Debs. Vice Pres
ident Howard opened the proceedings
with .rief address, reviewing the

kind has never been held in America
before. "Under one banner, with one

are today gaining numbers at the rate

Mr.. Howard Was followed by Presi-

President Dets' speech was enthusiasts

attacked the Carnegies, Frick and
George M. Pullman, charging them
with hypocrisy and pharasaical fraud.
Their business he declared is to rob and
degrade working men and women.
The convention will, he announced,
consider the Pullman strike.

WASHINGTON, June 13.-The Virginia
Republican committee, representing the
different congressional districts of the
state, in session here, has adopted,
though not unanimously, resolution
stating that the committee deems it
unwise to call congressional conven.
tons for the purpose of making Repub-
Icon congressional nominations in Vir-
ginia for the autumn elections. The
resolution expressly states, however,
that the committee has no intention Of
attempting TO prevent any person from
running for Office, or any people from
nominating representive if they feel
disposed to do so. Ex-senator Malone
says that the attitude of the Republic
cans of his state is the natural outcome
of existing affairs, and for his part he
will not cast another ballot under the
present circumstances.

ment is gigantic tyranny and fraud;

ought to fix The currency. The Italian
striker is u statesman. The Chicago
anarchist is an angel. The devil is to
pay: no pitch must be heated. The
mines must be idle: coal must be cheap.
Wool is too low: we must take off the

WASHINGTON, June l1.-Threats
from Democratic leaders of the house
that the senate sugar trust bill will
never be permitted to become law,
still continue to be heard with increas-
ing volume. One thing is certain, the
vote on the sugar schedule clearly de-
fined the situation IN the senate. If the
Populists. Kyle and Allen. vote with
the Democrats. the bill will probably
pass the senate. If they do not the
bill may be defeated. To one OF the
anxious Democratic senators Mr.. Allen
has made this statement:
81 do not know how shall vote. IL
will depend upon what action the SEN
ate takes upon some amendments have
vet to propo.e. certainly shall not
vote or the bill unless it is to my
liking. and unless it shall contain the
provisions which it seems to me il
ought to contain, and which shall pro-
pose. know that there will be much
opposition to granting these requests
which shall make. hut they seem to
me reasonable No one has right to
saw that he knows how | shall vote
when the last roll is called upon the
passage OF the bill"
This statement of Mr.. Allen is sig.
niticant. Two of the amendn ents
which he is to proposes, are that coal
shall go upon the free list, and that
some Of lhe cheaper grades of wooler
clothing shall also be made free.
The Populists now hold the trumf
cards in the senate tariff game. The
Democrats certainly do not know
whether they can pass their bill
through the senate or not 1t looks al
though they had not completed theil
arrangements. They do not know how
much more 1t will be necessary to pay
Allen for his support OF the bill.
