HARMON SECURED PARDON
FROM PENALTY IMPOSED ON
STRIKING RAILROAD men

Several railroad were Jointly convicted and
sentenced to fine and Imprisonment at Los Angeles for
oonsprng TO obstruct the mails during the great strike
of 1894 Their conviction was upheld by the supreme
court of the United States, November 1895
Judge Harmon, then attorney general learning that
these the only who had been convicted for their
connection with that strike all other cases having been
under contempt proceedings brought the matter to the
attention of President Cleveland. Judge Harmon told
the president that he had examined the record and was
convinced that these had idea or intention of OBJ
strucng the nails but simply engaged in the strike
then general throughout the country any obstruction to
the mails having been merely incidental it, in fact the
mails had been obstructed at all
He further urged that these the only men
on whom criminal conviction had fallen, out of the many
thousands engaged in the strike it hardship thus
to single them out which ought to be corrected.
TIE ONLY WAY TO DO THIS WAS PARDON WHICH
HE URGED THE PRESIDENT GRANT.
This done and these men were thereby saved
from the loss and Imprisonment which would otherwise
have befalen them.

How to Build and Use the Split

greatest possible boon 10 keep earth

OF its simplicity, its efficiency and its
cheapness, both in construction and
operation, ID is destined to come more
and more into general use. With the
drag properly built and its use well
understood, the maintenance Of earth

matter.
At the present time there are approx

Others which are equally important
