Discusses ths Pullman Strike and Offers
Suggestions.
The Opera House nt Harrlsburg, was well
filled with people Friday night to hear Eu
gene V. Debs, President of the American
Railway Union, discuss the Pullman sympa
thy strike and other labor matters. Hs spoke
one hour nnd three-quarters and received
most respectful attention, The sentiment
most loudly applnudcd was nn appeal to the
worklngmen to wipe out the great political
parties by Independent political action.
While he recngnlwd the necessity of Fed
eral soldiers to preserve law and order, he)
suggested thnt It was very singular that they
have never been known to come to the rescue)
ot laboring men always to tho defense of
capital as represented In corporations. An
archy was roundly denounced nnd co-opern-tlons
of all Inliororgaulr.atlon favored.
On the subject of railroads, he said It wouM
be better for the Government to own them
than railroads to own the Government.
