Cincinnati, October 26.-An enormous
crowd assembled at Music hall tonight,
consisting mainly of laboring men, to listen
to the speeches of their leaders, Samuel
Gompers, of the American Federation Of
Labor. and Edward Boyee of Battle, Mont,
president of the Western Federation of Min
ers Fully 5000 men remained during the
two long speeches.

read demanding that the president OF the
nIJited States enforce the constitution, es-
pecially the sixth section, which they claim

martial of General Merriam and his subor-
dinate officers and demanding that all the
federal, military and civil judges, If respon-
sble for the alleged illegal acts committed
by them, should be held to the strictest ac-
countability.
President Gompers said tie present at
forded a good opportunity for laboring peo-
pie. He said this enormous attendance and
a far-reaehing effect and would do much
to relieve the OPPRESSED in Idaho and to
bring their oppression to and end. Presi-
dent GomDers said that he was in the
mountain region near the scene of the up
rising in Shoshone county but a few days
before it occurred. He said by CONVERSE
ton with men who knew about the situa-
ton he learned the trend of affairs ait

lions had anything whatever to do with
that uprising. The labor unions had been
kicked out by the operators who on the
outside had brought inferior and danger
Gus non-union men and set them to work IN
the mines These ignorant miners, unused
TO the ways of the union demanded union
protection and were denied. He related a
story of what followed including the dyna-
miting of the property.

Bovce. president of the Western Federa-
ton of Miners, gave plain, straighttor-
ward. exhaustive history of the troubles
covering seventeen or eighteen years

HERMANN'S REPORT
Commissioner OF General Land Office
Makes Statement

Washington, October 26-TThe annual re-
port OF Commissioner Hermann, CT 'lle gem
real land office, made pubic today, shows
a grand total of 929, sos, 06S acres of un-
appropriated and unreserved public lands
in the United States The disposal of lands
during the fiscal year shows an increase
of 72S,516 acres as compared with the ag-
gregaite of the previous year. The total
cash receipts Of 'lne service increased
S192, 142 over last year. Original homestead
entries showed a decrease of 1870 in area
involved and final entries an increase oil
3J,192 in area. There were 1854 acres GER
the year. an increase OF almost 10000 In
dian and miscellaneous land patents issued
aggregated 212,S4S acres and 42O76O acres
selected by the various states and terri
tories were approved and certified for edu-
cational and other purposes Under the
several railroad grants made by congress
there were certified and patented last year
504,ool acres of land, together with co 1872
acres for wagon road Construction.
The commissioner makes a number of re-
concentrations looking to the betterment
of the land laws and their adinistration
Protection against forest fires is especially
urged. 1t is estimated that the average
yearly loss from this cause is not less than
$40. 900. 000 The proper utilization of the graz
ing lands on the public domain is also urged
and it is pointed out that so long as the
laws require mill men and other lumber
men to pay fair price to the government
for timber supplies drawn from public land
there should be equal charge levied on
the grazing products of public lands. The
government, it is urged, should derive a
revenue from leasing such lands.
