GOV. LEEDY BLAMEs THE COURTS.
Holds InjunctiOns Responsible for the
Pennsylvania Shooting.

TOPEKA, kas., Sept. 1.-THE shooting
down Of Pennsylvania miners by deputy
sheriffs has been the chief topic discussed
by the POpulist state officers today. Gov
ernOr Leedy was especially bitter in mis-
denunciation He places the entire blame
on the court, under the order of which
the Injunction against the men was being
enforced. He said:
1T is a public outrage. These working
men were shot down in cold blood while
marching along the public highway. What
manner of government is this? Is it pOSSi-
Bile that in this boasted free country of
ours man is to be deprived Of the right
of the public highway? 1t is the most
remarkable occurrence ever heard Of The
order to keep off the grass at Washington
now pales into insignificance. 1t seems to
have come upon the marching miners with
out any cause whatever. Why should
judges. who know little, If any, law. exer-
the right of injunction against men
who simply desire to walk or march indi-
vidually or in companies if they choose
along the public highway?
The writ Of Injunction was originally
provided for an injunction in extraordinary
cases. 1t was an extraordinary measure
in itself. But what We have seen in the
last few years indicates that 1t is becoming
commonplace. 1t is brought into play or
every hand. 1t is applied by ignorant
Judges to almost any kind Of legal con.
troversy. The injunctons are issued by
men who know no law and can assign nc
lust reason for such actions. This, then is
certainly an unwarTanted and unjust in
fringement upon The rights of the people
II have attempted" continued Gov.
Leedy, without prejudice in my mind, to
discover some reason why these injunctions
about which we hear much, should be
granted. 1 have had the aid of eminent
men, and they, too, have failed to ascer-
tain the cause for the promiscuous Issuance
of injunctions by the courts at any time,
and without reason and without investiga-
ton. They simply issue the mandate, and
sometimes that is the end of it. but today
we are rejecting over one of the greatest
outrages ever perpetrated upon a people.
Innocent and unarmed men have been shot
to death by a sheriff. who was ordered to do
SO by virtue of the Injunction which was
issued against these strikers. The sheriff
is not to blame, but the responsibility for
the murder of these men rests upon the
court

THEIR OBJECT ATTAINED
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS PLEASED
WITH THE SEALING SITUATION.
The Agreement Of Great Britain to
Conference Thing Sought for
Long Time.

WASHINGTON. d c.. Sept. 19-The off,
cials of the state department are not dis
passed to discuss the seal fishing corre-
spondence given out by the British govern
ment and discussed by the Times further
than to say that it shows the object sought
by the government of the United States
for the past three years has been attained
by the agreement of Great Britain to par
ticipate in the conference to be held in Oc-
tober.
The British government has seen fit to
limit it's part in the conference to an as
certainment of the facts in dispute to
seal life 1t was precisely this result which
was contemplated by Secretaries Gresham
and Olney when they proposed the creation
Of commission of scientists to ascertain
whether under the operation of the ex-
listing regulations the seals were were
not on the road to determination.
II such a commission should report in
favor Of the contention Of the United
States this government did not doubt that
Great Britain would consent to such modif1-
cation of the regulations as would save
the seals from determination. The cOntin-
ued refusal of the British government to
consent to such commission and confer
ence led to the transmission to Ambassador
nay VI secretary oHeTLldn HOte OF May
TO- which was followed by Lord Saisbury's
reply agreeing to conference.
Surprise is expressed at the state depart
ment that the London Times should pub
lish only the concluding paragraph Of Sec
retary Sherman'S note and devote four cul-
umns to a communication from the colo
nial office, which is referred to as Mr..
Chamberlain's answer to Secretary Sher-
man, a paper which has not been commu-
nicated to the state department., and there
FORE to which an official reply can be made.

A Visit to the Spirits,

OWritten for The Representative
80, George, can this be the land of our
birth,
The glourious land that we freed,
If this is the states, then surely the earth
Has fallen to low depths indeed
Thus spoke Thomas jefferson, weeping the
while,
To George Washingtons ghost, standing
near.
II am glad,' answered George, with a
faint little smile,
THAT we're safe in the spiritual sphere;
For if we were here, in our flesh, Tom,
today,
They'd take us for anarchists bold.
For freedom and justice has now passed
away,
They'd issue injunctions (whatever that
means,
Though outside of equitys pale)
Denying our rights to live upon beans,
And presto. they'd have us In jail
''Yes, l see,' answered Tom, but the
queerest of all,
Is that people to this will submit,
If they haven't the strength to throw off
this dread pail,
They'll soon land in the bottomless pit, -
When truth and morality is outpaced by
art"
Then bigotry greed and untruth get q
And mammOn will man OVERRIDE"
All, when this condition commenced
don't know.
When 1 left them they were all SO free
"We'n soon find out" answered Tom,
Come, let's go,
We will find Horace Greeley and see.'
When they found Mr.. Greeley and told him
how things were,
And asked him When came they to
this?"
Said Greeley, Tut, tut, to speak demur
To think of 1t Injuries our bliss"

A GOOD THING
Postmaster General Gary Heartily
FavOrs Postal Savings Banks.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 15.-Post-
master-GeneraI Gary is devotlng consider
able attention these days to an investiga-
ton of the wisdom of establishing postal
savings banks. When In the last congress
a bill was sent to him providing for such
institution she declined to indorse it be-
cause, as he said, he had not had an op-
portunity to investigate the subject. He
has since taken up the matter, reading all
the literature bearing upon it he could
procure and seeking opportunity to dis
cuss it's merits with those familiar with it,
The result is that he has become con-
vnced of both the wisdom and the utility
of postal savings institutions and has de-
cided to have a bill prepared providing for
their establishment and to recommend it's
passage by congress. In all probability he
will treat the subject in his annual report
at some length. He has not yet decided
upon the de,ails Of any plan, but will soon
give his attention to them.

Great Labor Victory.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 22.-The fed
GRAFTON Of labor council tonight issued an
address which in part follows:
This week fully $4,000 miners have gono
to work on terms fixed jointly by the min
ers and operators. 1t is the greatest VIC
tory gained by trades unions in years. 1t
has won against the combined power OF
wealth, judicial usurpations and inhuman
tyranny.
THE American Federation of Labor, be.
lieving only in practical methods, has de-
cided to continue it's support with organ
izers and money until complete victory
for the miners is won. To this end 1t calls
on it's unions and on the public not to halt
in their full and unmeasured aid to this
worthy movement.
"We can see no need for the labor con-
vention in Chicago next Monday. We ad-
wise our unions not to be represented
there"

MORE BRITISH BLUSTER
A London Paper Would Have Lord
Salisbury Bring the United States
to Terms.

LONDON, Sept. 2O-The Globe this after
noon, in an editorial on the futility Of
arbitration with power (which disregards
alike the legal prescriptions and ordinary
courtesies of civilized nations" says:
States with a kindness they do not de-
serve, always wearing the silk glove until
America has forgotten the existence Of the
iron hand beneath it,
In conclusion the Globe remarks: 1.-The
idea of our being afraid of fourth-rate
power like the United States could only
have occurred to sufferers from a severe
attack Of swelled head. America has lost
all sense of proportion and has forgotten
she plays only minor role in the affairs Of
the world. We hope our relations with
America will hereafter be distinguished by
a frmer tone, as the only way to avert
trouble is to make her plainly understand
that we are determined not to be shouted
out of our rights"
