There are corporations and corporations
But the masses do not stop to distinguish
and the decently managed concerns suffer
with the arrogant and ''soulless" under
that indignation and sense Of injustice en-.
tertained by the people, and, as suggested,
that is becoming more widespread and in

portions OF hurricane and in sweeping

If 1t comes, however, the corporations, In
their arrogance and iliberality and want

of the public, can charge their disasters
chiefly to their own managers!
Two cases just recently reported show
the difference between the wise and the

At Pontiac Mich, the city council ordered
the street railway company to pave between
its tracks, as the grant of the franchise
required. The company insolently and
defantly ignored the order. Then the al
dermen got gang of men together, waited
for no court processes, but proceeded to
tear up the tracks A popular riot ensued
and the company finds itself wrecked and
in popular odium!
These are striking contrasts and they
indicate the tendencies of the time. The
corporation officials who continue to prey
upon and yet defy the public are invoking
the storm. 1t would be wise in all the
magnates to turn over new leaf and
court popularity, or hunt haven OF safety
before the storm bursts in all its fury!

It is fact growing In Importance and
10 full recognition by Intelligent men every
day. that the corporations OF the country
are falling to appreciate the popular move
ment that Is gathering against them. Not
all are SO blind. but the more far-sighted
are not being sufficiently distinguished
from the marrow and arrogant companies.
The vast majority Of the corporations in
the United States are largely over-capital-

on their face three or four times the ac-
tuai vaiue Of the property upon which they
are based, These inflated values or

IT is A PREDATORY RAID.
yAauI INDIAN OUTBREAK IS NOT OF
LARGE PROPORTIONS.
About Two Hundred Warriors, MOST
Iy Rencpndes, Are Concerned
Many Indians at Work.

CITY OF Mexico August 9.--The Eigh-
teenth battalion OF infantry has left here
for Sonora TO Join the troops engaged ir
the Yaqui campaign. There is no appre-
hension felt here of the revolt spreading
TO the Indians outside of the natives
camp In the mountains, and, In fact the
whole affair has reduced itself to a mere
predatory raid by the Yaquis, who are
armed with Remington repeating rifles.
There are probably not over 200 In
dams in revolt, and the campaign agains'
them will be sharply pushed me man
body OF Yaquis appears contented' mere
is some apprehension lest the Americans
engaged In ranching near the scene Oh inc
Indian raids may be attacked, put the
troops will be employed to protect them
There is no political significance to the re-
volt, which is similar TO the outbreaks on
the big American reservations in past
years.
The government proposes to stamp out
the disturbance among the semi barbaroua
indians in the southern part of the PENN
sula of Yucatan and Is preparing Tor an
energetic campaign there. The fucatan
Indians take refuge in almost inaccessible
morasses which they know perfectly and
into which few white men have ever pene-
trated.
Ell Paso, Texas, August 9.Reports from
all sources in Southwestern Sonora UP to
today indicate that the war with the Yaqui
Indians is confined to the immediate neigh
borhood where the trouble started, south
and west Of TORN, a month ago. Indians
engaged in the trouble are but few and
do not number more than 200 Among the
renegades are those who attacked the GUS
tom house at Nogales, Sonora, on the Ari-
iona line two years ago, and were re-
pulsed with the aid of Americans in the
American town of the same name. The
killing of two Americans by renegades
near TORN three weeks ago was in re-
venge for the part taken by Americans i'll
the Nogales affair. The American miners
and prospectors engaged in washing placer
gold in numerous streams now occasioned
by the rainy season on the head waters of
the Yaqui river, report that the Yaqui
miners are all returning ~ the mines and
refuse to take part with these renegades.
The Yaqui miners, when they first heard
of the trouble at TORN, all armed them
selves and went post haste to the Yaqui
valley, supposing their people had been
attacked unawares by MeXicans.
No camps on the Yaqui river have been
molested. Many untrue stories have been
sent out by newspaper correspondents. Of
fetal reports from Mermosilo to General
Diaz are to the effect that renegades are
being holly pursued and will be scattered
by cavalry detachments in few weeks.
