tensive preparations had been made
for celebration and the day was ap
proprately observed. The establish
ment Of this national holiday marks
one of the advances of labOring men
in recent years. Discussing it's OBJ
servence the Denver Republican says:
1.-The improvementln the condition
of labor is one of the things that es-
pecially characterizes the close of the
nineteenth century. When one looks
back upon the history of the world it
is seen that but few generations ago
the rights of laboring men were hard
ly recognized at all. The people who
had to toll with their hands for their
daily bread were in condition but
little removed from that of serfdom,
and except in few countries they
were hardly recognized as factors in the
POLITICAL life of nation.
subsequently there came demand
for Improvements. But in the minds
OF many persons it was associated
with tendency toward anarchy and
socialism of the disorderly kinds. 1t
was feared that the advance of labor
meant the disruption of the state,
and it must be admitted that in the
act of some laboring men at labor
societies there was ground for this
fear. Disorder and spirit of de-
dance were noticeable. But this
spirit and such men were exceptional,
and with the advance OF the cause
came conviction in the minds of the
general public that in the movement
there was nothing that menaced the
welfare OF society, while laboring men
themselves saw more clearly what it
was they needed and should aim to
accomplish.
To-day the rights of labor are
recognized as fully as those of any
other class except the dominant mon
ey power which tramples under foot
all other classes as far as it dares. In
stead OF there being a menance to
the state in the raise of labor it is be-
coming evident that this raise is one
of the guarantees of the stability of
S0clGfV and tho ~
rights of all producing classes. 1t is
on this latter account that all such
classes should take an interest.in the
celebration of Labor Day, regarding
it not as something apart from them
selves. but rather as matter in
which they have deep INTEREST,"

Paying Off the Indians.

On Friday last we received dis
patches announcing that the checks
for the payment Of the Nez Perez
Indians would he mailed from Wash
lngtOn the following day, Saturday,
and that a company of troops from
Fort Walla Walla had been ordered
to LapWal to remain on the reserva-
tion for the ensuing ninety days, with
orders to reject any and all ntruders.
The troops arrived at Lapwai last
Sunday and are camped at the agency.
The checks arrived yesterday and the
Indians are being paid off as rapidly
as possible. If ever Indians needed
friends they needed them now for the
total payments aggregate nearly $3.50.

session OF their money, spending it
for what they need and can afford,
the country will be materially bene-
fitted; but If they proceed to throw it
at the birds, the sharpers and bunko
men will skin them out Of it, and
then skip the country with their i'll
gotten gains. There is large float
ing population of this disreputable
element assembled in the country
bordering on the reservation for the
express purpose of swintlling the poor
Indian, and it is devoutly to be hoped
that the soldiers will bayonet few of
them and the Indians scalp the rest If
they attempt any thimble-rig bust
ness The proclamation of the presi-
dent opening the surplus lands on the
reserve to white settlement is not ex-
pected until October and 1T may and
in all probability will be delayed until
next summer. The Indians have in
fuential friends IN Washington who
are not DESTROYS that they should be
brought IN contact with the new ele-
ment in our population as soon as
they are paid off; and consequently
there is every reason to expect that
the settlement of the reservation will
be delayed as long as practicable to
prevent Indian decentralization

agement.
President Upham, Directors Watt,
Magee, Hayward and Van Siok-
len to Retire.

The m embers of the Traffic Association
have arranged for meeting to be held to-
morrow at their office on Pine street, with
view to reorganizing the executive COM
mittee and board of directors.
The programme is for Isaac Upham,. the
president, to resign his office, and Direc-
Robert Watt and It. w. Sicklen to with
draw from the board.
For some months past the executive COM
mittee has been waiting for this intended
change. Meetings were held as regularly
as when the association had been doing its
best work, but on every occasion 1t was
seen that the only alternative was reorgan-
ization for the purpose of perpetuating the
association's usefulness. For the time
being there was very little to accomplish
within power of the organization, and
then the Wiley road had wholly eclipsed
the Traffic Association.
Manager Leeds went to St. Louis, leav-
ing it practically without a head. Besides
President Upham and Directors Magee,
Hayward and Watt are directors OF the
Valley road, and Van Sicklen is one of the
trustees of the same corporation.
They have become impressed with the
conviction that as they are members of a
railway corporation their position cannot

Yet the five officers of the Traffic Asso-
citation have no intention of resigning from
it. All they wish for now is to be allowed
to retire from its active administration.

With regard to manager to succeed

likely candidate, though the directors

difficulty in securing good man for the

In 1864 he was transferred to the Wis
consin conference, where he had charge of
some of the most important churches in
that State He was afterward transferred
to Cincinnati where he held the pastorate

years. He was then called to the First

He vas next called to the position Of pre-

in that capacity for four years resided at
Cleveland. His next post was the pas

Central Church of San Francisco, where he
remained the five years allotted to Meth

He was then called to the Howard-street

past three years and which has extended to
him unanimous and urgent invitation to
remain the next two years. The Treasury

AN INADEQUACY OF WATER,
The Basis of the Suit Against
the City and Water
Company.
Large Majority of Those Who Suf-
fered From the Recent Fire
In the Suit.

Gum & Koscialowski are working up a
strong case against the City and Spring
Valley Water Company on behalf of those
who suffered from the great fire six weeks
ago.
Claims amounting to several hundred
thousand dollars have been assigned to the
firm and evidence of the strongest charac-
ter is being amassed. A large majority of
those whose property went up in smoke
and was left in ashes have joined in the suit
and much interest is being taken in the
proceedings.
Witnesses are being listed by the dozens
who will testify that the water supply was
inadequate. Members of the Fire Depart
ment, Police Department, Fire Patrol and
private citizens will testify that the water
supply was such as to hamper the fire
engines in their operation and also that
the streams in several instances fell short
of the second story of the burning
buildings.
1t has also been ascertained that some of
the four-inch mains were so crowded that
an inch stream could hardly pass through
them. Many of the old mains which have
been replaced, it is claimed, will bear out

firemen and other responsible persons on
the spot during the confiagration.

age suit yesterday: Cali those who have
been spoken to about Joining in the suit
against the City and the water company
are red-hot to get even. few whose
losses were covered by insurance have
hung back, but my sister tells me that
they have all joined in and will make
strong fight.
'"There is no reason why they should not
defeat the water company. There is {.
pile of evidence showing that the water
supply was poor, that the pipes were too
small or too rusty and that the engines
could not fill the hose. The pumps were
absolutely powerless and sucked wind.
Even the firemen became disguised and
threw down the pipes in two instances
which came under my notice"

who were interviewed on the subject ex-
pressed themselves as being determined
to get satisfaction for their losses from the
Spring Valley Water Company or the CITY.
Between thirty and forty have become
parties to the suit, so it is stated, and, hay
ing much to gain and nothing to lose, they
will exert themselves TO multiply evidence
bearing on the inadequate water supply
and the defective character of the mains.
1t is asserted on good authority that
some of the mains were so badly corroded
that less than one-quarter OF their proper
flow could pass through them. Those who
are interested in the suit assert that all the
evidence they need, and more has been
volunteered. They have no doubt as to
the issue.

for the Court.
Mrs Bridget Johnson conducts a saloon
on the corner of Harrison street and
Madison avenue, and on Friday she
was arrested on two charges of disturbing
the peace and one charge of using vulgar
language. Her husband, Peter, was also
arrested on charge OF disturbing the
peace. They gave bail and were released
from custody.
The cases were called in Judge Conlan's
court yesterday morning, and the court
room was filled with residents in the neigh
borhood to give evidence against the john
sons. The Judge dismissed the case
against Peter, as all the neighbors testified
that he was a peaceab!e man, but the
charges against Bridget were continued.
She was so voluble and offensive in court
that the Judge ordered her into custody.
She was taken to the City Prison, but
about an hour later the Judge relented and
allowed her to go on $40 cash bail.
