KANSAS CITY, May S-Arguments
in the injunction proceedings, brought
by the Union Labor Musicians of the
United States against the principal Of
f1cers Of the National League of Mu-
sicians, were finished today before
Judge Slower, in the circuit court, but
it was announced decision would not

Harding, of Cincinnati, made the final
address for the Miller, or union label
faction. While the court proceedings
were going on, the American Fedora

tee was instructed to investigate the
situation in Toledo, where irregularities
in the organization Of a local union
are charged. The new constitution of
the Amalgamated Federation, reported
by committee appointed for that pur-
pose, was read and adopted, and q
motion to reduce the minimum union

A STORY OF TIE WAR


I was chatting not long since with Ed
ward Rosewater, the editor of the Omaha
Bee, tbout his experiences with Lincoln dur
ing the darkest days of the war. He told
me that he believed Lincoln got relaxation
by his story telling, and that the hearing
or telling of good story gave him the men
brain-taxing days. These stories came out
under the most trying circumstances and at
the most solemn times. A striking instance
of this was just after the battle of Fred
ericksburg. After the Union armies were de-
feated an official, who had seen the battle.
hurried to Washington. He reached there
about midnight and went directly to the
White house President Lincoln had not yet
retired, and the man was at once received.
Lincoln had alreay heard some reports of
the battle. He was feeling very sad and
rested his head upon his hands while the
story was repeated to him. AS the man saw
his intense suffering, he remarked:
IT wish, Mr.. President, that might be
messenger Of good news instead of bad
wish / could tell you how to conquer or to
get rid of these rebellious states''
At this President Lincoln looked up and
a smile came across his face as he said:
THAT reminds me of two boys out in Illf-
nois who took short cut across an orch
ard. When they were in the middle of the
field they saw a vicious dog bounding to-
ward them. One Of the boys was sly
enough to climb up tree but the other
ran around the tree with the dog following.
He kept running until, by making smaller
circles than it was possible for his pursuer
to make, he gained upon the dog sufficiently
to grasp his tail. He held on to the tail with
< desperate grip until nearly exhausted. when

A MAGNIFICENT PROGRAMME
OF Races Arranged for tho Seventeenth

OF Races Arranged for tho seventeenth
WestyirRinia State Fair.
The lntellIgencer desires to call the
attention OF the public to the splendid
racing programme announced for the
seventeenth annual State Fair OF the
West Virginia Association, commencing
September Q. The races open on Tues
day, the It'll, and continue for four days,
the premiums to be run for aggregating
s4b5O. The races are twelve In num-
Der, three for each OF the four racing
days and the indications are that there
will be more horses on the splendid
model racing track than ever before.
The first days races will consist of a
1850 pace for $3.50. q 2:27 trot for $300.and
a 2;1S pace for $500. Wednesday there
will be a 2:4O pace, a 2:22 trot and 2;l4
pace. for an aggregate Of $l,20O,and FRI
day the programme calls for 2:30 trot,
2:1S pace and 2:lS trot, for $500 each.
The fact that there is limit of three
races each day ensures finish Of all
events before out-of-town people leave
the grounds to catch their trains-a de-
parture from the practice OF other years
which will meet with the approval of
visitors from distance.

RArCHFoRD ON THE INJUNOTIoE
Recently Issued by JudGo JAoISSon-The
Work In West Virginia.

Recently Issued by Judgo JaoISSon-The
Work In West Virginia.
In an interview with the Columbus
Journal. President Ratchford, of the
United Mine Workers, says;
"As to Virginia and West Virginia we
are steadily overcoming the opposition
In both states and the day is not far
distant when all Of this territory will
be Idle also. The balance OF the opnos-
ing territory will then be easy con-
quest, Our West Virginia organizers are
experiencing no difficulty In reaching
all points, but by reason of the re-
strlctions made at many Of the incor-
porated mining centers we have found
It difficult to secure general mass meet
ings."
I'm this respect, Mr.. Ratchford, what
effect will the Jackson injunction have
upon the efforts OF your recently COM
pleted West Virginia state organiza-
tion?" was asked.
That all remains to be seen; so far
there have been none Of our organizers
or state officers served with the notice
issued by the court, While the opera
tors have succeeded, by what means I
cannot say, in securing probably the
most sweeping and to all appearances
the most jron-clad injunction In the his
tory of such movements, they have not
as yet attempted to secure its respect
from the body II directly opposes. OF
course 1t must not be presumed that we
do not expect to encounter this obstacle,
for we do, and each one. OF our men
are thoroughly advised In the matter;
but when II does come to that point 1t
will remain to be seen what can be done
In the way Of offsetting 1t. The ques-
ton must and can only be finally deter
mined by fighting 1t out in the courts,
which we are prepared to do whenever
the necessity arises. In the meantime
we are keeping up our work as strongly
and as enthusiastically us at the out
set and the results at all points are
such as to encourage us to greater en-
deaovr than ever. The Jackson injunc>
ton is perhaps one of the most infa-
nous rulings that has ever been
handed down In any court and 1t has
been soundly condemned by the leading
papers Of the country. The mere fact
OF its universal condemnation may be
really accountable for the hardness OF
it's enforcement, which seems otherwise
inexpllcable. From all quarters we are
in constant receipt of the most hearty
assurances of the substantial sympathy
OF not only our brother labor organi2a-
tons, but the great mass of puhllc-
spirited and philanthropc citizens,
whose underlying principles OF Ameri-
canIsm quite naturally lead them to an
espousal of cause that Is nothing II
not praiseworthy and humane. We
have no reason for complaint; our Or
ganlzation Is steadily growing, our
cnuse Is being sustained at every hand
and in the great ranks of our army of
associated laborers there is nothing but
evidence Of supreme satisfaction and
