state. Those farmers have only few
sheep. But In the hill counties, where
ordinary farming is carried on. if at
all, under great difficulties, they
abound. The free listing of wool
means the robbing of those farmers OF
their chief source of revenue, with
nature standing guard over them to
prevent their doing anything else to
advantage.
No one knows all this better than

The last part of the tariff to be con-
sidered will be the customs administra-
ton act. The Mckinley act really
consisted of two statutes, the one pro-
viding reforms in the enfo. cement OF
the other, being known as the admin
istration act. The latter was fought
with quite as much venom as the for
mer, and denounced as an outrage
| The under-valuatiou cheats at New
York were especially indignant. Bu'
it would seem that this act is not to bt
antagonized. At least the latest re-
ports are to that effect. The truth is
the measure has worked so well tba
the Democrats dare not repeal it.

CITIZEN SOLDIERS.

The companies Of the California
National Guard are severely criticised
by many because they did not charge,
with fixed 6sonets. upon the strikers
at saora9leto when so ordered I'd. by
their com mmanding officer. They may
have been guilty of a breach of mill
tary discipline in refusing to obey or
ders, and to those who are attracted
toward this arm Of the government
such an offense will not meet with toll
GRAFTON. But in this country the
greatest support to free institutions IS
an intelligent, independent and liberty
loving people, aud the greatest menace
troops of well drilled soldiers. The
militia at Sacramento were composed
of fellow citizens of the strikers, and
as intelligent men they did not believe
the emergency demanded the slaughter
of their neighbors with bayonets. If
they had been regular soldiers, isola-
ted from all communities, the order
would have been strictly ebeyed, and
the lives of the people would have
been sacrificed to crafty the notion of
a uniformed officer, who had been well
fed and well paid by the government
to execute extreme measures In cases
of imminent danger to lie or property.
The men who refused to allow the
trains to move with Pullman coaches
attached were not outlaws to be butch
cred with bayonets or shot down with
rifles like wild beasts. They we're
American citizens, peaceable and law
abiding except when soulless. merciless

ouestion OF stare. R:ent.

KANSAS CTY, July Am Alton train
was detained by strikers at Slater, Mo-,
and held at that place. General J. o..
Shelby, United States marshal at Kansas
City, sent several deputies there to re
lease the train and allow 1t to proceed
on the ground that it was carrying
United States mail and, as a United
States officer, it was his duty to The gov
ernment to see that its functions in this
case, the expedition of the mail, was not
interfered with.
Governor Stone resented this as an in--
reference with the state rights, and
wrote to General shelby asking HIM by
what right United States officer has to
interfere inltroubles of this kind within
the state. as he believed the stale was
perfectly capable of taking care Of Its
own domestic affairs, and, where not
able to do so ana finding 1t necessary to
call for aid from the federal government,
it would do SO In the approved constitu.
tlonal form. General Shelby replied
very tartly, adding that he was acting
under order from the sttorney-general to
clear up the passage of the United States
mail, and in pursuance of these orders
was to prevent such unlawful inter-
ference by arres,ing on proper warrants
all such offenders and taking them be-
fore the proper federal tribunal for ex-
ANIMATION. He referred Governor Stone
to the attoruey-general for light upon
the subject of authority IN enforcement
procedures.

The Tariff Bill Passes the Senate.
WASHINGTON, July Sin the midst OF
intense excitement, at 10.45 tonight,
after having xbeen debated for three
months and one day, the tariff bill,
amended to take effect August /, 1894,
passed the senate by vote of "a to 80,
strict party vote, except Mr.. Hill, who
voted with the republicans against the
measure. The populists divided their
strength, two, Messrs. Kyle and Allen,
voting in favor of the bill, and two,
Messrs, PETER and Stewart, against it.
At the very opening of the last day of
the great struggle, Mr.. Harris, the vet
eran parIiamentarian, in charge Of the
bill, announced that it would pass today,
the third of July, or there would be no
fourth of July for the senate of the
United States. Until evening, there we're
no sensational incidents. A hard but
hopeless fight was made by the Repub-
llcans, under the leadership OF Mr.
Sherman, to place wool on the dutiable
list. Through the instrumentality OF
Mr.. McLaurin (dem., Miss the action OF
the committee of the whole in exempting
the salsres of United States judges and
the president of the United States from
the income tax, was reversed in the sem
ate. a very important piece of legisia-
ton, in the shape of an anti trust law,
was placed on the bill as rider, without
even so much as q division. 1t was
designed, as Mr.. Voorhees, said, to insure
",nteprity in the execution of the law,
1t being admitted that any tariff system
| afforded abundant opportunity for the
| formation of trusts and combines.

The power of the laboring people is

meat scarce In New York.

NEW YORK, July 3-Tbis city Is
threatened with the worst fresh meat
famine it has experienced in 90 years, on
account of the railroad strike. Nothing
IN the way of livestock or dressed meat
has started from Chicago to this city since
Friday. Prices on all meats went up
with a bound this morning. The con-
sumers will have to pay from 25 to 40
cents per pound TOR meat. The delicious
fruits which are brought overland from
California have suffered most through
the railroad strike. Some fruit Is still
coming, but there will be little received
after tomorrow until after the strske is
settled.

Regu. ars In Chicago.

CHICAGO, July 4-Taken in its en-
tirety, the day has been quiet one in
the strike circles, barring an occasional
furry caused by the gathering of moos
in the stockyards districts, which, how
ever, were held In check by police and
deputies, backed up by the near prox-
unity of detachment of regulars from
Fort Sheridan, for whom the strikers
have a wholesome respect. Trains are
once more moving at Blue Island, the
turbulant element having suddenly scat
tered down when confronted by pieces of
ordnance and glittering hayonets. After
the troops dIsembsrked at the stockyards,
the strikers vented their spleen by ditch
ing the two lear coaches of the troop
train, and disabled the engine by showing
coupling pins into the cross-head guides,
being careful, however, to wait until the
regulars were safe distance away.
The Chicago s. Northwestern today re
sumed its passenger service, which Is now
running regularly and without interfere
ence. The Illinois Central annouces
that it's suburban passenger aervlce viii
be resumed tomorrow. The Atchinson s
Topeka and Alton service Is still seriously
crippled, though the formers passenger
trains are moving on time. The Baltl
more & Ohio passenger service is normal
while the Nickel Plates freight servic,
is at standstill. and passenger train
are irregular. The Chicago & Calume
Terminal is at a stsndstlli. The Michi
gan Central sent out train of 40 cars o
meat today. The Pennsylvania az
nounces that 1t will be moving perishabl
freight to and from Chicago tomorrow.

THE FOURTH.

Tomorrow will be CELEBRATED through
out the country with becoming cere-
monies in commemoration of the event
of the colonies declaring themselves
free and indepenpent of Great Britain,
and never in the future history of the
republic should there be time when
the people feel apathetic in this mat
ter. American liberty was dearly
purchased, and the Revolutionary
fathers organized government of
which they and their posterity might
well feel proud. The constitution
drafted was an instrument as nearly
perfect as ever was conceived by
human minds, and for more than a
century it has withstood many tests
without its excellence being in the
least impaired. Civil war, financial
depression and labor riots have beat
like angry billows against the edi6ce
without weakening the solid founda-
tion upon which it rests, or causing
the people to look elsewhere for refuge
or protection. 1t may not be safe to
judge the future by the past, and on
every recurring 4th of July it is the
duty of patriotism and craftsmanship
to examine carefully the signs of the
time to certain what exigences may
have to be met in the future. Tomor-
row can be pro6tably spent in this
manner. and the anniversary of our
natal day wi!tthen be one of growth
as veil as OF rejoicing over past VIC
tories

sacramente's MostiExeltinx Day.

SACRAMENTO, July 4-EaIly this morn
ing 1000 armed militia arrived here from
San Francisco and Stockton and pro-
ceeded to the armory. As they pro-
ceeded down L street countless thousands
of people lined the sidewalks and alter.
hateIy cheersd and hlssed the troops.
After reaching the armory the troops
halted and were received by General
Dickinson. Subsequently they entered
the big building, where they were served
with breakfast. Soon after II o'clock
General Dickinson ordered the troops
to load their guns, preparatory to gong
to the depot. during the loading pro-
cess gun in the hands of member of
company from San Francisco exploded,
seriously wounding o. II. Wing. local
fireman, and ipjuring two soldiers.
Wing was shot through the bowels, and
will die. One of the soldiers was shot
through the right leg. and is now at the
railroad hospital, The other escaped
with flesh wound.
In anticipation of lively scrimmage
between the soldiers and strikers, an i'm
mense crowd gathered at the depot this
morning. As soon as this body OF
nearly 1000 men were observed heading
tor the depot, a s:resm of people pre-
ceded them and crowded the west end of
the depot. The Sacramento. regiment was
oredred to clear the depot of the crowd,
but the further advance of the regiment
was blocked by dense mass of people
Who refused to retreat from the soldiers.
rbey were reasoned with by Uuited
States Marshal Baldwin and others and
urged to permit the soldiers to enter
without collision, bnt they refused to
move
General sheehan then reported to Mar
ahal Baldwin, by whose request the
troops were sent here, and under whose
command they were, and explained that
It was impossible TO clear the depot
without using force, and asked for
written order to fire, but the marshal re-
fused to give such an order. At first he
said that he was not aware that the
troops were under his control, and that
he would give no orders until the law
setting that fact was pointed out to him,
and it was made plain that the troops
were under his orders. He was then
asked by the military authorities what be
wished The troops to do and replied
that he wanted the Toio and American
river bridges guarded.
Acting under instructions from the
United States marshal, Gsne's al Sbeehan
commanded the Sacramento companies
to clear the depot Of strikers. The men
marched into the depot amid the widest
cheering, bpt when the order to disperse
the mob was given they lowered their
puus and marched from the depot. |
This was the singal for'a tremendous
amount OF cheering. The strikers
shouted and yelled, and one OF their
number climbed upon an engine and
waved an Amerscan Tag.
The Stockton companies were then |
called upon to clear the depot, but. like
wise. laid down their arms and returned |
te their barracks. as .fhe Sacramento |
and stockton companies marched up

THE END IN SIGHT.

According to the leader of the Dem
ocratic side of the senate, Mr.. Harris,
of Tennessee, vote on the tariff bill
will be reached by Saturday, and ac-
cording to Mr.. Aldrich, the leader of
the Republican side, the senate will be
on the "fag end" Of the bill by that
time. Evidently they both think that
the pending stage of the contest will
be over before this month closes, says
an exchange. In other words, that
the Fourth of July will find the whole
matter in the hands of conference
committee from the two branches of
Congress.
There is no longer any schedule of
prime Importance to be taken up. Silk
comes the nearest to being of the first
grade. The domestic silk mills of the
United States are more extensive than
is generally supposed. In 1890 their
products for the census year were val
ued at $S7, ,454, about quarter
of those of the cotton mills. The same
year we imported $3s,246,7S7 worth.
Protection has developed this industry
to the point where it supplies over two
thirds of the silk worn by the Ameri-
can people, and, what is still more note
worthy, the price has been reduced by
this home competltion. No one can
examine into the facts in the case and
say that the silk tariff is a tax, in any
proper sense of taxation. Even the
free traders have to admit this.
New Jersey is the chief center of
the silk industry. Both of the sena-
tors from that state seem to be indif-
ferent to its fate. If they can only
get on the right side of the sugar trust
market the silk mills may rust out
without giving either of them any ap-
parent concern. Is is somewhat SER
ious matter for the country, for no one
is so poor as not to wear silk in some
form. 1t is, however, still a luxury,
and not to be compared to the great
staples which are among the necessa-
ries of life.
After the dutiable lists have all been
gone through with the free list will
come up, and then wool will once more
be under consideration. 1t is no ex-
aggeration to say that millions of far
mers are directly interested in and af-
fected by the price of wool. Even
MIR. Harris own state of Tennessee
has over half million sheep, every
one of which free wool will depreciate
in value, and its neighbor on the south,
Mississippi, has nearly as many more.
The millions of sheep of those two
states are kept, for the most part. on
rough and untillable land, much of it
not suited to the grazing of cattle,
even. The fact is that, take the
country over, and the wool growing is
largely confined to land unsuited to
ordinary farming. Take, for example,
Ohio. 1t has more sheep than any
other state in the union, not excepting
Texas, with its vast ranges. Now
those sheep are not found, in any con-
siderable numbers, in the broad valleys
and broader plains which make up the
greater part of Ohio, and have given
it such high rank as an agricultural

The Ultimatum.

CHICAGO, July 2-Debs said this at
ternoon that q settlement will be made
on these terms only:
First-There must be an armistice
between Pullman and his employees on
basis satisfactory to the men. (They are
willing to acceps reaaepable compro-
mlse), and all men must be taken back
to work.
Second-There must be an adjust
mont between the railways and the
strikers; all must be restored to their old
positions and no wages shall be cut, nor
shsll they discriminate.
Third-The General Managers ssso-
ciotion has made comaon cause with the
Pullman company and We cannot settle
Witb either side. There must be an
agreement with both or none. This
statement was made after an interview
with Peter StudebakeF.

THE STRIKE.

The strike of the Railway Union
spainst Pullman cars on the different
railroads has been inaugurated in
nearly every state, and the fight has
become very bitter between the repre-
sentatives of organized labor and those
of combined capital. Corporations,
possessing vast wealth and unoounded
influence, have become very oppressive
ard arbitrary in their actions toward
the people, and it became necessary as
a means of self-protection that those
who we're dependent upon their labor
as a means of sustenance should form
organizations to save themselves from
vassalage to the money power OF the
country. This effort on the part OF
labor has been very successful, and to-
day the combined societies of wage
earners include the members OF every
trade and are large and increasing In
numbers. The present sympathetic
strlke-as it is termed-is fair Illus
tration of the gro With of these organi-
cations and the power they WELD IN
every department of labor. Some
time ago, Mr.. Pullman. of the car
works near Chicago, published a de-
creased schedule of wages for his en-
ployes. A protest was entered against
this, and as result about 100, 900 men
are refusing to do any work on a train
that have Pullman coaches attached.
The area that this strike covers COM
prehends near the whole territory over
which the great transcontinental lines
run, and business has been effected in
almost every state of the union.
Without organization these men would
have become the vassals of Mr.. Pull
man, and their objections would have
been unheeded. As it ls, the conflict
has become so widespread that it may
be necessary for congress to pass some
laws organizing courts OF arbitration
to settle differences between employer
and employe when the general busi-
ness of the country is liable to be in
jured thereby. Corporations have the
unquestionable right to fix scale OF
wages for those in their employ, and
on the other hand laborers commit no
crime by refusing to work except they
receive what they consider adequate
remuneration. In the clashing of
these privileges wrongs may be done
the public and great hardships result.
While it might lean towards paterna-
lism in government, yet if these COR
tests between labor and capital could
be amicably adjusted by court of ar
bitration business would not be snb-
jected to the disturbances that so fire.
suenty happen, and there would be less
bitterness of feeling between the en-
ployer and employe.

Loss to the Fru,t-growers.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 3-Fruit ship
ments to this city yesterday exceeded
the usual limit. Stockton, Napa, Peta-
luna and points on the Sacramento river
are sending large quantities, much of
which had been packed for the Eastern
market. Commission men expected an
Unprecedented overflow this week, and
although prices are now at bedrock {.
should the tie-up continue, q further fall
will come. The Continental Fruit Com
pany states there are now about 150 cars
of fruit tied up between here and Ogden,
which Is worth about $4,000. and will
probably be total loss. Every day the
strike continues means a loss to the
growers of $4,000, and If it continues it
will be almost complete ruin to the in
dustry,
