1t is explained here that ever since the
Chicago strike. when tho general Government
interfered to enforce the mandates OF the
United States there has been tendency to
apply to the United States in local troubles.
The officials who make such appeals. 1t is ex-

ministration in the matter. Its purpose is not
to interfere In local affairs. except when all
State efforts have been exhausted and upon
proper application of the proper authorities, or
whero the local authorities have shown them
selves neglectful of the public interests.
