THE CoxEY EP1sopE
Warrington Omclals Add Insult
to Injury.

Coxey's army Was dubbed and
the commander and his aid hustled
off to the police station. And for
what? For entering the Capitol
grounds as individuals; for enter
Ing as citizens within the sacred
area set apart by the people for our
representatives to make laws in.
Mr.. Coxey was tho bearer of a petit
ton setting forth certain grievances
Of the people. He was stopped on
tbs Capitol steps by policeman,
to whom he announced his mission,
and for insisting upon his consti-
tutional rights he was seized and
hustled out of the grounds.
The sacred right of petition has
been for the FIRST time in the history
of our country not only denied, but
denied by a common policeman.
An army of unemployed and home
less men had marched across sew
eral hundred miles of American
soil to ask our national law-making
bodies to give them some relief
from destitution-from hunger and
privation. They had intended only
to ask that system of public i'm
provements be inaugurated 80 they
might be afforded an opportunity to
work. A policeman's club barred
the way and forbade it. They were
treated with contemptuous abuse.
The aspirations of the Coxey
movement are not confined to the
few hundred footsore and destitute
men who paraded the streets of the
Capital last week. Hundreds of
thousands of American citizens in
every corner of our Union have
been in spirit with those men and
their determined leaders every foot
of their weary march, and were with
Coxey in spirit when he was forci-
bly, elected from the grounds, upon
which as an American citizen he
had the right to enter. The blows
inflicted by the clubs OF the police
on Browne and his followers were
keenly felt by every lover of hui
| manity in our land. Each was a
blow in the face of liberty and vio-
lation of our constitution. CoAey
and his followers possess an inalien-
able right which belong equally to
all American citizens, and that
| right has been ruthlessly trampled
upon. The people will attend here
| after to the transgression of the
law by their representatives. The
ides of November are almost here.

CLEVELAuD A BINErALL1sT.
The Most Startling Revelation Of
the Age.
The agent of thes Associated Press
in Washington says the agitation in
Europe and notably in England in
favor of tho rehabilitation of silver
as q money metal is being observed
with great satisfaction by the Adj
ministration, for it is regarded as a
strong confirmation of the correct
ness of the principle to which Pres
ident Cleveland has so strenuously
adhered throughout thick and thin,
and sometimes at the risk of his
own popularity with his party.
The President has contended that
true and stable equality of gold
and silver could be brought about
and maintained only by an agree
ment between the great financial
nations of the world. With this
conviction he has been obliged to
resolutely oppose individual action
by the United States. When the
extreme silver men have declared
that there could be no hope of the
contamination of the desired inter-
national agreement, the President
has replied that firm and stead
fast adhesion to the line of policy
intimated by the repeal of the silver
purchasing sections of the Sher.
man act must inevitably bring
about the desired result.
One of the purposes in view then
was to relieve the United States
from the loss and danger to which
it was subjected by the efforts to
maintain, unaided by any Of the
great financial powers, the integrity
as money metal of vast silver
circulation. Europe had prospered
under the old conditions and was
we'll satisfied to allow the United
States to bear the burden.
The Presidents theory was thai
by suspending further efforts ir
that direction the United States
would cause the European nation,
to feel the need of a larger circulat
ing medium and to share, at least
with us the hardships OF monetary
stringency. Therefore the move
nents now in progress in England
Germany and France are regarded
by the Administration people al
evidence of the successful work o
the Presidents policy"
All such talk must be viewec
with suspicion, because it has beer
used so often as a pretext for delay
Grover Cleveland has always uset
the argument that an internationa
agreement was absolutely essentia
to secure the rehabilitation of th'
white metal-and why? Simpl,
to disguise his hostility to silver
John Sherman is another patriot
friend of silver-who has Gun
ningly insisted that nothing coule
be done to help its cause, except BY
international agreement. 1t seem'

silver a very dark colored eye II

casions given it equally hard blows

did when it demonetized the white

in reinstating it, if the desire to dc

RUCTIVE HAIL STORMS

Near Vienna Destroy Life and Property.
A TERRIBLE hail-storm, lasting fifteen
minutes, swept over Vienna last week
Thursday. The hailstones fell in sheets
and the wind blew hurricane. When the
storm broke several hundred artillerymen
were drilling on Simmering Heath. The
horses bolted and several men were I'M
seated and the guns passed over their
bodies. Three officers and fourteen pri-
Yates were injured. The hailstones choked
the drains and caused many in the low dis
tricts to burst. The stones varied in size
between walnuts and eggs. They lay in
masses all over the street. A tram car and
a milk cart stuck fast in the middle Of a
street and were dug out with difficulty. In
one open cellar the hailstones were ten feet
deep. Many old roofs collapsed under the
loads left by the storm. Gangs of men were
employed for hours after the storm in shov-
cling the ice into carts and throwing it into
the river. All the windward windows in
the city were broken. Many were pierced
az If with bullets. 1t is estimated that half
a million were smashed. The people were
panic-stricken during the storm. There are
known to have been three persons killed,
presumably by lightning. In some parts OF
the country the crops were ruined.
