When an incident like the following
occurs here at home it is bound to
carry weight with our readers. The
public statement OF a reputable citizen
living in this city leaves no ground
for the skeptic to stand on.
Mr.. James c. Stevens, of this city,
informs us: II was troubled with an
ache in the small Of my hack for long
time, and such was the condition of
things until I tried some Of Doan's
Backache Kidney Pills. which ] OBJ

store. A short treatment gave me the
desired relief, and am satisfied that
they are a good remedy for backache
and deserve to be recommended"
Mr.. Stevens Is one Of our own cit
liens. Is not such testimony stronger
than tiNt Of someone living In Amer
lea?
Does your back or r.tn ache so that
| it is hard to stand straight? DO you
have headaches, nervousness. frequent
thirst, lot dry skin, or shortness Oi
breath? Evil forebodings, or unsettled

sOCIALIsM,s SETBACK.

The cause of municipal socialism
which until recently seemed to have
received a great upward boost at De-
troit through the labors of Governor
Pingree appears really to have suf-
fered setback in the end, the supreme
court of Michigan, the city council and
/ all the newspapers of Detroit having
refused to take a favorable view OF
Pingree's scheme to buy the street
railways of Tom L. Johnson for SIS
000, 900 Some time ago Theodore
Roosevelt in a magazine article point
ed out the possibility that if this coun-
try ever became committed to national
state or municipal socialism, the NOV
ing force in bringing it about would
not be the altruistic enthusiasts, but
the fellows who had made all the
money they thought they could safely,
through determinations practiced to
the advantage of themselves and as
piring monopoIies, and through the
manipulations CT stock in utter disre-
gard of the interest of the general
stockholders. Otherwise expressed,
when they had worked these processes
to the point where the people refused
further to continue their fabulously
rich privileges al the price of a song,
these concerns would slyly stimulate
operation of the franchises involved
with the view of selling them back to
the public at exorbitant prices. This
very thing happened at Detroit, where
Johnson's franchise was about to ex-
pire and he was facing an eventual
round demand for compensation in
order to secure its renewal At q
time when Detroit could compel any
proper regulations and get a certain
fat revenue from gross receipts, Pin
gree proposed to go into the uncertain
business of trying to run a municipal
street line with 3-cent fares at profit,
and the gocd-sou1ed Johnson was will
ing to walk off with sixteen millions
in bonds and seek new feds to repeat
the deal. The Detroit newspapers
treated Johnson's kindness with great
and even the socialist
labor party said too thin" to his mu-
self-abnegation. With sad
heart aching for the dear people John
son has left Detroit to collect his
thoughts. Meantime the people have a
expectation that Johnson
will run his own roads and pay hand |
somely for the necessary privilege.
Arizona republican., 1899-07-30
STRIKES COLLAPSE.

The street railway strikes in Brook
Ign and Manhattan boroughs in New
| York city are practically at an end.
The strike was not the act of a major
ity of the employees in either place and
their heart was not in the fight. In
addition the admirable work of the
police department held the riotous e,e-
ment so well in check that order was
well preserved save for occasional
minor disturbances. The law pre-
vailed and order was for the most part
maintained 1t is gratifying to note
that the master workman of the
Knights of Labor admits that the po-
lice force prevented a reign of anarchy
by keeping the rioting element in
check. InrCleveland the police force
proved to be incapable and the militia
is now in charge of the streets of that
city. A little determination upon the
part of the Cleveland authorities would
have done what the prompt action of
the New York police force did in that
city.
Master Workman Parsons says the
police force took the side of the rich
corporation and that if the police had
not interfered not a car would have
been run in Brooklyn In other words
Parsons declares that the knights of
Labor depended upon lawlessness to
make the strike a success Without
the presence of the police the men who
ran the cars would have been beaten,
the cars would have been destroyed,
tracks would have been torn up,
poles thrown down, distractions
placed upon the rails, and pandemo-
mum generally let loose. But the po-
lice stood in the way.
When the knights of Labor depend
upon anarchy and general disorder to
enforce their demands it is evident
that they are not the friends and ad-
herents of good government. Parsons
complains in effect that the bomb
throwers and the car smashers were
held in check by the police. He thus
admits the weakness of his order and
puts himself on record as believing in
mob violence. Such men as he do
mere to cast odium upon labor unions
than any one else. He did not rely so
much on the merits of the demands
made as he did upon the work of the
mob in the direction of Illuminating
thoce who wished to work No labor
unicn can expect to prosper if it makes
fioting and murderous assaults its
arguments to secure concessions from
employers
