UNION men
ATTACK CARS
Labor Day Riots Occur
Daring Union Parade
at Frisco

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. S.--Rtoting
and baoodshed made an unfortunate
termination yesterday to one phase of
fhe labor day celebration IN this
city. One man is in the throes of
death, another is seriously hurt and
scores are sufferitg from minor in
turies as a result Of spontaneous,
naddened outbreak Of a mob Of labor
adherents against a few men who
were quietly assisting in the operation
railroads. The observance of the day
nv union laburers of San Francisco
was two-fold. The local Labor coun-
ell made it's demonstration in Good
night park, While the followers OF the
building trades, under the direction
of the Building Trades council ar
ranged to assemble at Shell Mound
park, in Oakland. In connection with
the latter AFFAIR parade of the build-
ers was had to the Oakland ferry.
Owing to the impossible condition of
Market street for several blocks up
from the ferry the route of the parade
to the water front was turned out of
Market street at Third and the men
marched down Mission from Third to
the bay, turning up East street to
Market This left Market street free
of paraders from Kearney to the east
ern terminus of the tT1oroughfare. Or,
ders had been issued by the police that
the street cars should not run over the
line of march while the unions were
passing, in order to prevent conflicts
between the non-urrion carmen and
the union builders
But the signal for resYming opera
ton was given too soon and three cars
were caught in a crowd of beiated
paraders and the union men attacked
the non-union motormen. Inspector j.
w. Hale, of the United Railways, was
struck on the forehead with hammer
that one of the union men carried on
his cane and his Skull is probably
fractured. He was kicked and stamp
ed TILL fearing his life was in danger,
he drew MS revolver and fired point
blank into the crowd.
Showers cof bricks and other missiles
were poured in upon the cars. The
police dispersed the crowd and ar
rested Hale for carrying concealed
weapons. The cars were again started
and again assaulted by the mob wnen
motorman, Frederick Duhrsen, open
ed fire with his revolver. ]. ]. Peter
son, a structural iron worker, is per-
haps fatally shot, and William Bow
man, another iron worker, shot in the
thigh, but win probably recover. There
were many other minor injuries.

HARVESTING AGAIN IN PROGRESS
Rain in Prairie Section Was Light and
Only Caused Delay.

ILO, Sept. 3.-The heavy rain that
visited the Lewiston country Saturday
night and Sunday did not reach the
farming country in this section and
light showers prevailed here, which
have caused no particular damage ex-
cept to delay the harvest.
Some of the farmers began work in
this vicinity this morning and all Of
them are at work this afternoon. The
fall grain will shatter some on account
of the rain, but there has been no
considerable damage up till this time.
The farmers need 80 days yet to take
care of their harvest. The yield is
splendid throughout the entire prairie
section.

A Business Not Wanted.

Some good and sincere friends OF
the News have said that we were
foolish in declining to accept whisky
advertising. That may be true. The
prOprietors of this paper sometimes
do foolish things. But it will need a
heep of argument to convince them
that a refusal to accept whisky adj
vertising comes under this category.
The News has always been sincere
in its desire to have the sale of liquor
prohibited in this city and county.
That desire has been fulfilled. 1t
now wants to see the business prohib.
tied in the entire state. 1t has work
ed successfully for the one, and will
now go to work for the other.
Believing, as it does, that the en-
tire business of selling alcoholic Ii
quOrs for beverage purposes is mimi
cal to the best interests of the COM
munity and the state, it would, to
say the least, appear most inconsist
ent on the part or this paper after
labOring successfully for the over
throw of the traffic, to now engage
indirectly, though lawfully, in bus
mess that it wanted others prohibited
from doing.
That's what advertising does. 1t
sells goods. If it will sell legitimate
articles of merchandise, it GER
tainly could do its part in selling
such articles as come under the ban
of the law.
Since Putnam county went dry the
Palatka News has absolutely refused
liquor advertising, which had they
been accepted, would have amounted
to one full page per week in this pa
per, and from which the publishers
would have derived an income of
$1,000 per year.
The News needs the money, al d
yet it does not speak of this loss as a
sacrifice. 1t is not that. The sacri-
flee would have come from it's accep-
tance-the sacrifice of principle, OF
self-respect. And that is, in the case
of the Palatka News, worth a trifle
more than $l,l70 per annum in cash.
All papers do not look at this mat
ter from our viewpoint. That is
their business, not ours. And we
have nothing in way of censure for
them. And then, you know, there
are papers whose motto. though new
er expressed, have nevertheless been
put in these words by rhymster:
$50 that your purses be long
And the ring OF your coin be true,
There is never a wrong so wrong
That it shall not be reckond right
At your behest, and for you
The green shall be green or be blue,
And the blacklist of black shall be white"

Coming 70 palatka.

The following Associated Press
dispatch was published in the Times
Union last Tuesday:
''Pittsburg, Oct. 28.-Rev. DR.. E
P. Cowan, secretary of the Freed,
mans board of the Presby
church of America, now in session
here and Rev. Henry ID. Lindsay
president of the Pittsburg college
for women, will go south next Mon
day in the interest of schools and
colleges for negroes supported by the
Presbyterian church. Special atten-
lege at Abbeville, S. c., which was
endowed by the late S. P. HARRISON
of Allegheny. The institution has
encountered many difficulties due to
race prejudice. The white popula-
ton of the community protested
against its establishment and finally
drove its president away. The mis-
sion of Doctors Lindsay and Cowan
is to make special plea to the peo-
pie not only to cease their objection
to the college but to lend their aid to
the advancement of the school on
the lines proposed. They will also
visit Palatka, Fla, and other towns,
where schools for negroes are main
tained."
The colored Presbyterian church
in this city is affiliated with the
northern branch of the Presbyterian
church. Its pastor is Rev. w. F.
Kennedy, who is doing good work
among the colored people. Through
the aid of the general church he has
purchased lot and will soon build
a new school house to be managed
in connection with his church work.

Of Interest 20 Ladies.

The ladies of Palatka and all this
section will have more than passing
interest at this time Of year in the
announcements of the Earnest Com.
pony of this city. Dry goods is ar
old yet ever new theme, but in the
manner of its discussion by the
Earnest Company there is also en-
tertainment.
Most people can grow eloquent in
their minds over descriptions of the
artistic in dress, but it requires a
real artist to wax eloquent in the
word picture as does Mr.. Earnest
this week.
Mr.. Earnest has done much for the
trade of Palatka. By keeping the
high grade goods which have hereto
fore been regarded as impossible, he
has held much of the trade that has
heretofore gone abroad, at home.
He will do more, and he ought to be
encouraged. Read his advertise
ment in this weeks News and you
will agree with us.

A Strauss of New York, travel
ing salesman who has been selling
suspenders in Florida ever since
Senator Wiki. Call popularized 'em
by parading one over his left shout
der, was in Palatka this week.
Mr.. Strauss is the original Hebrew
prohibitionist, and he has only been
converted to the idea n short time.
He said:
II made two weeks trip through
stretch of dry counties. Business
was good but there was something
lacking, and / never really could eX
plain what it was until / got back to
New York. Then l saw that it was
my thirst. No man accustomed to
looking upon the froth that gathers
on the stein can ever really appreci-
ate the pleasure to be derived in
quenching thirst accumulated in a
two weeks campaign for suspenders
in dry territory until he has tired it.
It's great. It's this, and the improve
ment in the suspender business, that
makes me a prohibitionist-for the
south, mind you, only for the south.

THE SUNDAY THIRST
Can No Longer be Slaked ir
St. Augustine.

Mayor Eugene Masters of ST. Au-
gustine has issued an order to the
saloon keepers of that city to keep
their bars closed on Sundays here
after Mayor Masters also made
this incident an opportunity to eX-
plain his action to Hon. +. II. Will
son, mayor of Palatka, which he
does in the following letter:
Mayor of Palatka:-
Dear Sir: On assuming office a
few months ago, found prevailing
in st. Augustine the custom of open
saloons on the Sabbath, this custom
prevailing here for years. / was
waited upon by the Ministerial AS
sociation of st. Augustine, and re-
the Sabbath day. | replied at that
time, that it was not my desire to
make a radical change in the prevail
ing custom of our city owing to its
cosmopolitan population. did, how
ever, request that all saloons close,
and in fact, all businesses of every
nature to be suspended during the
hours of church services morning
and evening. This worked to the
satisfaction of everyone and we had
ulOsb ptdCtlul anu INV dUlulllS
community on the Sabbath. Sun
day, the 9Th of October, there was
an excursion operated from Palatka
to St. Augustine and the privilege
and customs as to sale of liquor
were very much abused by certain
saloon keepers and most of the ex-
cursionists. Sunday, October 18th,
there was no excursion operated,
yet, we were visited almost wholly
by this same element thats came
over from Palatka on the excursion
of the previous Sunday. / then felt,
owing to their disgraceful conduct
here and on the train, that our SUN
day customs in st. Augustine would
have to be abolished and strict
closing be adhered to not only for
the peace and dignity of our City,
but for Palatka as well, as | under
stood that the conduct of these eX-
cursionists upon reaching Palatka
was most disgraccful.
In conclusion | wish to assure you
that the municipal authorities of st.
Augustine will never do or cause to
be done any violation of laws that
will bring about bad repute to our
city or to any of our sister cities.
This office will use every power at
its command to prevent the future
sale of liquor on the Sabbath day.
Yours very truly,
EUGENE NJ STEERS, Mayor.
