The reply states that the home rule rty, having control of the legislature, locked every effort at substantial leglgla- tlon; that bills were so illogically put to gether that it was impossible to do any- thing with them: that the home rule party was continually hampered with petty jeal ousles, and that these party bickerings caused the president of the senate, himselt a member of the home rule party, to re- skn in disgust. The reply states further that one of the causes of the fallure of the members of the home rule party to attain their objects, and which prevented the legislature from accomplishing more, was the insistence by the home rule mem- bers upon the use of the Hawalian lan- guage in the legiglative proceedings, not- withstanding the organic act provides that VAl legislative proceedings shall Qucted in the English language.” elected Interpreters and re tation of all bills febates. The reply admits a lack tween the legislature and the governor, but states that the legislature did not @eal with the governor in a broad spirit and that past influences were permitted to Interfere with the conduct of the legls- lature, Continuing, the reply says: “In refusing to extend the session of the legls senate ad be con- They uired Interpre- resolutions, motions and of harmony be- lature, the governor acted with the con currence of the republican members of the same.” This memorial 18 signed by all the re publican members of the legislature and by | members of the executive committee of the | republican party.

The courage of nearly a dozen of the non-union men falled them in the opening spurt through the crowds and they sprang from the wagons that carrled them to mingle with «nd be lost fn the crowd. The ride of the non-unfon men through the city was the dramatic spectacle of the day. At 5 o'clock the Third Signal corps, mounted and armed as cavalrymen, formed a hollow square around the non-union men who had just arrived at the depor. Five thousand men tagged at their heels and jammed in around them and thousands more crowded into the intersecting streets Non-Unionists Have to Hurry. Fifty policemen formed in cordon about | the waiting dragoons and tried to force the | crowd back. The street was cleared, but the walls of humanity on the sidewalks beld firm and could not be moved: A broken alleyway that runs along the south side of the Union depot was the stage of the open- ing scene. Into it were driven four fiat- topped open trucks. The crowd recognized them as the same vehicles that had car- | ried the first batch of strike-breakers, md‘ | greeted them with groans. Suddenly a side | door of the depot was thrown open and up the alleyway toward the waiting teams marched the non-union men Once they ware all aboard the drivers brought their teams out into the street, the cavalry closed in around them and the race was on. The police threw themselves across the street in solid phalanx, but the crowd, roaring its threa agalnst the new men, swept over the police and took up the chase. Ahead were thousands more and with no fear for either heels of horses or blades of steel they closed in around the cavalrymen. Soon there came a volley of bricks and three of the strike-breakers sprang from the rear wagon and were lost in the crowd Dush of the flying column dashed into State street for the run up the hill past the capitol. Here the crowd was as dense and as desperate as the other and men plunged in around the galloping horses.
