to the different censuses, from to w
per cent of our population are, or should
be, employed in manufacturing.
This rate holds good from year to year.
1t takes the labor of just about that per-
centage of our population to supply the
wants of the nation in the way of wear
ing apparel, food, ETC., independent of
the Importation from abroad.
Therefore, in estimating the number
of additional employees" who should
be put to work in any given period, it is
simply necessary to know the increase
in population during the same period.
Between 1890 and 1892 the population
of the United States was added to by
about 3,500,000 The foreign immigra
ton alone was very much over 1900
in the two years. We will, however,
suppose the increase to have been only
100000. At the rate of per cent, the
number of additional employees in man
ufacturing and mechanical pursuits
should have been 100000. This would
have been the case under normal condi-
tions, but under the supposed great slim
ulus of Major McKinley's tariff measure
why should not we expect to hear that
at least 10000 additional employees were
put to work?
Does it not appear that Major Mckin-
ley's showing of only $1,000 Is very much
of a fizzle as an indication of a happy
condition of the nation? Yet we must
| give him credit for making the very best
| showing possible from his peculiar point
| of view.
| Had Major Mckinley not thought ii
inadvisable he might have given Us
| some very entertaining figures to prove
| that the condition of the Rocl1efellers,
Hannas, Vanderbilts, Huntingtons, Car
negies, Morgars. Belmonts. 1ckelhei-
mers, Seligmans, Rothschilds, etc,
| has been most happy one
! for many years past, but when he at
| tempts to show that the condition of the
plain people of the land has been so he
certainly makes most dismal failure
of it,
Leslie's Weekly Of June IL, 1896, says:
"The latest gossip about Mr.. John u.
| Rockefeller's wealth credits him with
an income from his Standard oil stock
of over $1,000 every hour of the day the

that Major Mckinley forgot to tell the
people about it, as it fairly describes
! the happy condition" of one of his most
ardent supporters

GLENDINNING AND OTHERS WANT
JUSTICE HARVEY RESTRAINED
FROM Hearing SHIFTS Against the
Company and the Individual Sub
scribers to the Stockholm
Swaner of the n. G. U. Charged
With EmbezzIement.

James Glendinning, W. H. Penrose
and James Moffat, stockholders of the
Utah Midland Railway company, yes
terday filed an affidavit and petition
for restraining order preventing Jus
tice Harvey from further proceeding
against the petitioners in twenty-three
cases brought against them individu-
ally as members OF the corporation of
the Utah Midland Railway company
to recover certain sums alleged to be
owing the plaintiffs for work and la
Dor performed and for materials sup
piled.
The grounds on which the petition is
based are that Justice Harvey in pass.
Ing on similar cases wrongfully claimed
to have Jurisdiction to inquire into the
legality car illegality of the incorpora-
| tiCn known as the Utah Midland Rail
way company, and rendered Judgment
against seven of the subscribers to the
capital stock individually, thus in eff
feet declaring that said corporation
was Illegally incorporated and organ
lied. 1t is then alleged that unless he
is restrained Justice Harvey will again
give judgment against the petitioners
and again Illegally and without juris-
diction pass on the question of the
legality of the Qcorporation; wherefore
the petitioners pray that tine justice be
restrained from SO doing.

was issued by Judge Hiles, returnabie

KNOWS WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT

One of the most prominent railroad
men in the country, and one who is
not now and has never been in any
way connected with the New York
Central, recently made a trip between
New York and Chicago, out on the
Empire State Express, and back on
the Chicago Limited; and this is his
opinion of it, expressed in a letter to
the general passenger agent: II am
very glad, indeed, l made the trip on
the Empire State Express, for the run
ming of the train is beyond all COM
parison the most absolutely complete
perfection of mechanical precision l
have ever known; l timed it the en-
tire schedule, and at no point was it
ahead or behind time a second, so far
as l could determine; it is undoubtedly
the very acme of the railroad develop
ment of the time-trlly the model train
of the world. My ride from Chicago to
New York, on the New York Central
Limited, was the pleasantest journey
1 have ever made between the two
cities: the Lake Shore track is a mar
vel, and your new air bumpers insure
such steady and remarkable smooth
ness in the riding of the cars that if
there is a curve on either line, from
Lake Michigan to the AID street sta
ton, no one on the train can discern
it, AS 1 am under no obligation
through passes to pay compliments
having paid my fare both ways, am
sure that you feel that am expressing
honest praise, as it is certainly de-
served. Buffalo Express.

NO GOLDEN MONARCHY.

Who believes that freemen dare not stand
For silver's cause within their land,
And ask no favoTS from the hand
OF golden monarchy?
Our fathers thirteen stars unfurled,
And stood alone to face the world,
Defiance at a monarch hurled
And left US liberty.
VIII we, with twenty times their power,
Prove recreant now to freedoms dover,
The standard of their manhood lower
To a would-be monarchy?
Not till freedoms race is run,
Not till every patriot Son
Forgets the name of Washington
And that will never be.
Freemen all will join the throng,
And march to right the cruel wrong;
They'll come ten million ballots strong
And crush this monarchy.
See their champions banner high,
Hear his winning battle cry,
mo cross of gold shall cruelty
mo thorns pierce labor's brow"
Smiling victory stands in sight,
And bids us come 10 claim our right
With silver ballots clear and bright
To bot out monarchy
Then will labor's sons be free,
Then will come prosperity,
And triumph for Democracy
When silver's cause IS won.
The ship of state will proudly feel
From truck to deck, from deck to keel
No golden monarchy
With constitution sailors tried,
And loyal hearts on every side,
Her golden chains to anchors tied
Or silver, coinage free. 10

A BRUTAL HOBO.
JUDGE VENEER GAVE CoLLINSON
WHAT HE DESERVED.
Two Hundred Days in Jail For As
saulting an IncTensive Old Chi
naman-other CuIprits Get OF
With Lighter Punishment.

James Collinson, the notorious house
breaker, is again in the tolls
Yesterday morning, in company with
other crooks, he helped himself to vege-
tables from Chinese fruit vendors
basket, and when the Monaghan de-
maGded pay for his vegetables, he got
a bow in the mouth that knocked two
of his front teeth out.
The assault took place about 8 O'Clock
in the morning. Sing Hing was walk
ing along Fifth West, between North
and South Temple streets, with his
wares He left the baskets on the side
walk and went to deliver some onions
to a customer. When he returned
there were half dozen hobos around
the baskets, each helping himself to
what he could find. The Chfnanan made
such noise as he could and ran after
one of the crowd, who proved to be
CoElinson, and demanded pay for his
products. Instead, Collinson turned
around and struck him, as stated. Then
the gang took what was left in the
baskets and wended their way toward
the old abandoned salt works.
John H. Timpson, who runs a store
across the street, saw the assault and
so did a little boy by the name of En-
mer Lawrence, residing in the vicinity.
The former closed up the store, jumped
on his wheel and followed the gang as
Ear as Sixth North. Then he sent for
the patrol wagon, and Officer Busby
soon gathered them in. They were a
tough-looking outfit. A double charge
was entered against Collinson-larceny
and assault and battery. The others,
who gave their names as T. S. Dono-
van, Brig Morgan, J. A. WEIGH, Louis
Allen and James Fisher, were charged
with petty larceny.
Hing was in court and presented a
sorry appearance. He had never
washed the blood off his face, and the
not add to his attractiveness. He was
positive about the men and although
Col,inson attempted to rattle" him, he
swore most positively that he was the
man that made the assault.
The others said they had arrived in
town on the previous evening, but De-
tective Sheets knew better, Identifying
three of them as circus hoboS that had
been in town for several days
Before the judge rendered his SEN
tence. Collinson made his old stereo-
typed plea-that there was considera-
Bile prejudice existing against him in
this city. He said it was ridiculous
to think he would assault a defenseless
old Chinaman. He had reformed now,
he said. and was earnestly endeavoring
to lead an honest life.
But Judge Wenger is no tenderfoot
when it GENES to considering hobo
stories and he promptly sentenced him
to 120 days in the county jail and to
pay a fine of $50 in the assault and bat
terry case and $40 fine for stealing the
vegetables. The sentences CT the others
ranged from twenty to twenty-seven
days in the county jail.

Miles French is dead.

Miles fTench IS dedd.
This announcement will bring sadness
to thousands of people from the river
to the coast, who knew and loved the
bluff, hale. and genial stockman who
was ever a prince of good fellows.
Stockmen all over the country will miss
his hearty hand shake. Word was re-
ceived yesterday by Joe Brinker that
he died the day before in Denver, from
an attack of pneumonia, and the re-
mains will be sent to Omaha, for inter
menf. The attack, while sudden, was
the third one, and his physician had
advised that he must guard very care
fully against a repetition.
The deceased spent the 4th of July
in this city, and was then apparently
in the best of health.
Miles French had been for a long
time general western representative of
the Kansas City Stockyards company.
He leaves a wife buc no children. While
his headquarters were at Denver, he
was the greater part of the time travel
ing about, and his wife nearly always
accompanied him.

Keep your husband at home" they
say, "by making the table, as we'll as

go on to say that the grace of the tea
table is good tea.

part of it; there is wisdom in the gen.
eral idea
We have seen late utterance of Mr..
w. D. Howells, that we should all be
much better off if our men were kind
err 20 our women.
Yes, but there is another side to it.
Are the women as kind to the men as
they can possibly be? Are our homes
as coy and pleasant as they might
be?
When our men come home tired and
a little cross, do they find the supper
table always restful, and do they lin
ger at it long and willingly? Or do
they hurry away and go off with other
men and drink, and all the rest?
The foundation of our race is the
home. Keep lit clean and pleasant,
and it will stand forever.

will undoubtedly nominate Judge Tenn

A committee on ticket had consider
able trouble in adjusting matters. Not
only were the candidates numerous,
but the Democratic committee notified
them of the locations from which Demo-
cratic candidates would probably come.
Their locations are said to be conflict
ing and will handicap the ticket if not
equally distributed over the state. At
first it was announced that the Demo-
cratic committee would name their can
didahes so that the Populists could put
them on, but this afternoon it is given
out that this will not be done.
