Slje 3n ^penitent. WAI.KIUn'ON. INDIANA, AUG, 4, 1894 W. A. EXDLRY, Editor. Another star has beeen added to the flag, making 45. The 41th Indiana will hold their next reunion at Home City Sept. 20. The general impression is that the strike is over, but Debs doesn’t seem to think so. Tom Reed, of Maine, has been renominated for congress by the republicans of his district.

The Indianapolis News thinks that Sovereign serves merely to show how wise a leader Powderly was. The leading members of congress have nothing to say on the late strike. Why all this silence? Are they afraid of the cars? . The Michigan City News defines the anarchist thus tersely: “The anarchist * . .a. , is a man without R enemy of all countries.” “When the English conquer a country,” says Max O'Rell, “they take the bible with them. And in a little while tiie natives have the bible and the English the land.” ( About $30,000,000 worth of proper- 1 ty was destroyed in Chicago during the Pullman strike. Cook county, it is said, will be held responsible for the f most of this loss. Foreigners who don’t like the way * this government is conducted should be made to go back home. We only desire those foreigners who can become true and loyal American citi- ! zens. Among those shot by the troops in the Chicago riots were Gagewinski, Srzeixtanski and Kozzminick. They were among the bloody rioters, as is to be inferred from their names. Like all questions, there are two sides to the capital and labor question. * While discussing the rights of labor those of capital should not be overlooked. Appropros of this point the ' Logansport Journal says: “It should not be forgotten that in these depressing times capital is out of work also.” If Debs et al. could have carried their strike there would be no safety for the traveler or shipper in the future. A little dispute between an employer and his olliee boy in Boston might leave the traveler stranded in Colorado or stop perishable goods at a way station in Indiana any moment. —Union City Eagle. At last the secret is out, says the Louisville Courier Journal. It is an Omaha preacher who has turned it out. He lifts up his voice and reveals that the strike was “a retribution sent upon (he people of Chicago for the awftd sacrilege committed in opening the gates of the World’s Fair on Sundays last year. Government ownership of railroads may not be so impracticable as some people think. It is true that the combined value of all the railroads in the ! country would amount to a vast sum, i but it has been quite clearly shown that the government would be able to buy all the railroads and pay for them in a few years. The success which has attended government control of railroads in European countries surely warrants the belief that this plan would work satisfactorily in the United States. Legislation for the restriction of immigration may not be of immediate concern to this country, as the tide has turned in the past year and a half, but ■—■t— ik l M.Jy it tiuiu when the immigration evil will again assume its dangerous and serious phases, as formerly. With the resumption of prosperous times in the United States, which will doubtless come in the near future, the tide of foreign immigration will again beat ' resistlessly, if not checked by law, upon our shores. It is effective legislation upon this question that the loyal and steadfast citizens of the United States are demanding, and it must come soon, or it will be too late to arrest impending disaster to this country. This matter is a very serious one, and to delay and trifle with it is like playiim with a dynamite bomb. Because there is a cessation of foreign immigration just now should be no excuse for postponing legislation upon this question. We had a valuable object lesson in the late Chicago riots of the consequences ol allowing all sorts of foreigners free access to our shores. Let us not forget the lesson. It was u good one.

Indianapolis Journal: “Railroad officials say that in all their experience following a strike they have never known of such a mad rush of men to lie reinstated. It is said that at one point of the Wabash there were over live hundred applications—from strikers and competent unemployed railroad men—within twelve hours.” The Indiana Wholesale Grocers’ association has sent the following telegram to the Indiana congressional delegation at Washington: “Please devise some means to settle the tariff controversy. Surely a suffering public has waited patiently enough. Our and similar interests have been severely injured by the delay.” ~

Gov. Matttiews says the militia will be paid in full for services during the riots and strikes. The cost to the state has been great. He says: “I have arranged to pay the militia between the 15th and 20th of August, I do not care to say how the money is to be raised, but it will be forthcoming. It will require something like $40,000 to pay of the men who were sent to the coal mines and to Lake county, lam handicapped by the peculiar construction of our laws, which only allow a cont ingent fund of $2,000 for such expenses. This fund was exhausted during the Roby race riots. I * want the millita to understand that ] they are to be paid. Many of them ' need the money now, but I hope they will not sell their accounts to men < who will exact an exhorbitantcommis- - sion for collecting them.” Speaking of labor disturbances, , Congressman W. J. Bryan, of Ne- , braska, says: “I am in favor of com- ( pulsory arbitration where large numbers of men are employed in interstate commerce. The law must recog- , nize the dillmenee between large and small industries just as we recognize the different conditions between city and country by employing policemen to preserve order in cities where large numbers of people are crowded together and dispensing with them in the country. Circumstances and conditions determine what laws are necessary. Where a large number of people are employed, so that a strike causes inconvenience and embarrass ment to society, the people become interested in legislation to secure a settlement on an equitable basis.” The South Bend Times administers the following stern rebuke to Col. Conn: “Congressman Cony telegraphs that he does not w ish to be understood as being opposed to the course of Gov. Matthews and the state authorities in suppressing riot. What he objects to is federal interference w ithout a direct request by the local or state author ities. Well, out here people who believe in heroic measures when life and property are menaced, when interstate commerce is interrupted, when mails are detained, when hades is being raised all along the line, are net overpunctilious as to who puts a stop to such lawless proceedings. They be lieve President Cleveland did exactly right in using the strong arm of the government to repress insurrection and restore order, whether invited to do so or not. Gov. Matthews is in full harmony with this sentiment, and therefore receives the plaudits of both ’ democrats and republicans.
