A JUST JUDGE.
Judge fclaynor's decision in regard
to the Brooklyn street railrouds Is one
of the few deci-ions of courts in such
matters that 'he people can heartily
commend. The employees struck
because they considered that they
were not treated faitly; the company
goes into court and wants Its property
protected and its exactions Judicially
sanctioned. Hut Judge Gnynor
simply says, In ellect: "Hun your cara
or forfeit your c.hurler. You are a
creature of the pe ,ple. They have
granted you cei tain valuable privileges
on certain conditions. The principal
one of these conditions Is that you run
your em's and accommodate the
public. If you do not do this, your
charter will be forfeited. It is not the
business of the court to settle dif
ficulties about wages. You must do
that yourselves. But in any event
you must operate yeur cars. You
must provide transportation for the
people. It was for this purpose that
the people gave you a right to exist us
a oorporutlon. Either keep your cars
moving or give up your charter."
This is remarkable, because out of
the ubuuI course of modern judges.
But it Is not only good law, but,
bidter than that, evident justice.
Herctol'oie, general, all a corporation
had to do to make its oppression of
workmen effective, was to rush into
court. It must be confessed that as a
rule the judges seemed to have an ear
for the employers ouly. uttt Judge
Guyuor lius set u refreshing example
of requiring such corporations to do
its duty and perform its obligations.
If there had been such judges to
consider the t-trike troubles lust
summer, judgig who would have said
to the railroads: "Bun your trains,
with or without Pullman curs, us you
please or as you can, but run them,
aud transport pussengers uud freight
and carry mails, or loose your chart
ers," the great strike problem would
have been speedily settled, aud settled
right, too.
Judge Gayuor deserves the thanks
of every friend of hliinutiily und
lover of justice iu the United Huites.

SOUTH-BOUND TRAIN HELD UP
The Express-Car Robbed of About
$25,000 The Passengers
Were Unmo
lested. PINE BLUFF, Ark., Jan. 25. The
south-bound Cotton Belt train was
held up near her by two masked nieu
at 75 p. in. The robbers were riding
on the blind baggage, and, as the train
went through a deep cut, the engineer
saw Ihem crawl over the tender of the
engine. Before he realized what was
up, he was looking Intxi the muzzle of
a pair of 4.5-callber revolvers. The rob
bers commended him to stop the train
and marched hhr to the express car,
which wus in charge of Messenger J.
W. Massey. Massey was covered by
the bandits' guns, as was also Conduc
tor Harris, who hud come out in the
ineatitiine. They took the money
Harris had on his person. The amount
taken from III? express car cannot be
ascertained. After an iiiff'ectual at
tempt to open the safe iu the express
car, the bandits compelled the passen
gers to assist. The amount taken from
the wife in estimated at $o,OUO. The
watnh and chuin luken from the con
ductor was returned. It is thought!
they are members of the Cook gang,
No. 2. The passengers were not mo
lested, nor wus any one hurt by the
bandits.
Black Miners' Experiences in Coos Bay.
BAN FRANCISCO, Jan., 26.-Eigh-teen
negroes, who were induced to
ooiuefmin West Virginia under prom
ise of lucrative employment In Oregon,
have arrived In this city und tell u"
story of grout herdship and impo.-ition
U. V. Audeivou, Ihe leader of Ihe
parly, said today: '
"There are eighteen of us now.
Seven are women who ctune out witli
their husbands. One of them ,hus
work and is now iu service, but the
iet of us cannot get work. We
lived uenr Keystone, Dowd, county,
W. Va., where we had pretty good Jobs
as miners. About December 16 last, J.
B. or B. B. Earl came among us. He
represented himself as the superinten
dent of the Coos bay, Hoseburg & Ore
gon Navigation & Coal company, and
promised us work In Oregou. Eurl
got up a party forty-nine, including
five or six white men, and we started
for the mines up north. This superinj
tendent told us at home thai we would
be paid forty-live cents per ton, for
mining coal, und that at that rate, we
could make from 55 to $7 per duy. He
said we would have comfortable quar
ters and good treatment. The men
were dropped off the train at Boseburg
and had to walk over through the
country for sixty miles to Beaver bay,
where the mines are located. There
were no houses, and when the women
joined us, ufler coming another
route, we had to live iu a box ear. We
set to work and built houses out of
green lumber, which we had to cut
from the trees. The rain dropped in
on usull the lime we were there, and
ice was ot; the floor nearly all of the
time. It was ulmojt enough to kill us,
for we were not used to cold weather.
But we are strong uud would have put
up with it all, if we could have made
mopey,
"We worked like slaves, but at
forty-live cents per ton could only
make ninety cents per duy, We had
to work Iu mines were the wet mud
dropped down on our heads, and we
hud to cut through mud aud earth to
reach the coal. All tills time we had
to pay the company for our hoard and
lodging. When we discovered that
we could 11 01 stund it, we complained
to Graham, the foreman. Earl had
slipped oft", after locating us. Graham
told us that we were trying to get up a
strike and ordered us to pay whutwe
owed the conipan'y and leave. We had
no money. Home of the miners down
ut Murah field, Newport aud Empire
heard of our distress, aud after we bad
trudged len miles, the good people
raised enough money to ship us to Buu
Francisco. When we got here we
lived in one place and another until
we saw our I'uudB ruunlng low and
I lieu we picked out one to keep the
money. J. VV. Miles wua the man e

penses. Miles came out wllh us, und
seemed to be a line gentleman, and
we trusted him like a brother. He has
absconded, however, with $111 belong
ing to the party and $75 of disown.
We were In danger of starving to death
when Mrs. Poter and aome other chari
table ladies camo to our help. She
and Ihe ladies of the Baptist churches,
the Church cf Zion and other churches
rented this house for us and we get

A $10,000 Fire at Corvallis.
CORVALLIS, Jan. 28,-Tho gro
cery store of Peaise, Clark & Company,
the Ben Woldt saloon adjoining on the
south, and Zeis' building formerly oc
cupied by Jack Kirk as a Bttlnon, and
the Wheeler Bros., embracing nil the
buildings from rikipton's livery stable
to tile corner north of the Occidental
hotel known as the Sorbin corner are,
this morning, almost a mass of ruins.
The loss at this time is not known,
but it Is believed that It will foot up
fully $10,000, with Insurance of about
$3000. The fire ' .had its origin in
Pearse, Clark & Company's grocery
store. By the time the alarm was
given a big blaze had burst out through
the roof, aud before the fire apparatus
arrived on the scene there was un ex
plosion throwing boards, window glass
and other articles in every direction,
some of them dropping across the
street.
Iu a very short time four big streams
were playing on the lire, but bn ac
count of the great headway the flumes
had otaiued, nothing could be done
but to prevent it from spreading to
other buildings. For some time it was
thought that the livery stable of Skip
ton Bros., was doomed, and the total
absence of wiud together with the su
perhuman effort of the firemen alone,
saved it from destruction.
Tile alarm was turned in about four
ond it was twenty minutes after seven
More the apparatus was housed, Sol
lie Smith while climbing up stairs in
Skipton's stuble to get out on the roof
to tight Are, fell to the lower floor.
In the fall his ankle was broken uud
severe bruises and possible Internal in
juries sustained. Sain Case barf u
badly burned face und u deep cut in
the palm of his left bund as a result of
the lire, He stood iu front of Pearse,
Clark & Company's w licit the keg of
jrimder? exploded. He was knocked
down by the soucussiou and will suffer
pain from its effects for some days to
ceme, The concussion of the explo
sion wus so great that it shuttered the
glass In one of the doors of Nolan's
store across the street. Many are
inclined to the belief that the fire was
Incendiary, but no attempts is made
to fix the rcspoiisibilty.
Merely in a Stupor.

Mrs. Josephine Holiday, wife id' a coal
miner at Broadford, wus found on the
road two miles west of hero Sunday

lime the people on the outside had got

to get a look at Mrs. Holiduy. She ap
peased their curiosity by walking out
into the front room uud ordering them
away. Mrs. Holiday has been addic

yeurs, and it is supposed she took an
overdose Sunday and fell into a stupor
in which she was found.

At Mare Island.
VALLEJO, Cal., Jan. 25. Carl
Earl, a Be iinan apprentice on the Iu
dependence, slipped off the deck of the
launch L'vely at 4:00 p.m., and waa
drowned. The launch was towing
pile-driver upstream, and, as Earl wa
standing on the deck aft, the lurch or
the boat caused him to lose his footing
and go overboard. A strong tide was
running, uud Earl sunk before help
could arrive. Blame, it would seem,
attaches to some one for not having re
placed the railing eround the launch,
which was knockedaway in a collision
some months ago. Qrapplers are now
at work. .

After More Officers.
Scuator Haley of Umatilla county,
lias introduced a bill creating the office
of grain inspector, for what purpose It
hard to understand, unless it Is to take
what little margin is left to the farmer
at the present price. The Oregonian
gives some Portland comment upon it
which will fl ml a commendation from
nil who understand the situation:
Senator Haley's bill providing for
the appointment of a state grain iu
specter does not meet with much favor
from wheat meu here. The bill seems
to be looked upon as somewhat of a
populist ntoasuie, introduced for the
purpose of providiug oiHoers. W. J.
Burns, local manager of Balfour, Guth
rie & Co., said yesterday:
"I have not yet heard any argument
iu fayor of the bill. All the people I
have talked to, men in the grain trade
here and dealers iu the country, fail
to see any occasion for It. I am aware
they have graiu inspectors in tbe East,
but the conditions are different there,
the graiu being haudled in bulk. It
is easily sampled iu the cars, and then
it is put iu the elevator, where Us iden
tity is lost! Here the graiu is bandied
iu hugs, and it is impassible to sample
all; when in cars. There are no stats
iuspectors iu California, where the
business is much larger than here.
Altogether, I cannot see who will be
benefitted by the law being put Into
effect.
"A similar bill is now before the
Washington legislatures, and there is
quile a sensation in favor of it in tbat
stale; but I am sure the result will be
very detrimental to the wheat business
on tho Sound. It will put an extra
expense on the-wheat handled II ere
witli no corresponding benefit. In
iHlierwords, the passage of the bill in
Washington will drive the wheat trade
away from that stale,
"The expense of maintaining the
law will be on the wheat itself, even if
it were to be cohecte 1 frogs, tilt expor
ter, who will take such shtrges into
consideration when be purchases the
grain. The total expanse will D vsry
heavy, much more than tut amount
named iu the bilL It will b 4 ellftUa
