Washington, July 10.- "The administration will not cease its efïorts until the constitutional right of every man to obtain employment free from intimidatiou Í3 thoroughly established. If that should be the outcome oí the present struggle it will be worth the price paid for it, dear as it has been." This statement by a high official sets out eoucisely the position of the government. It means a guarantee not only to protect the operations of the mails aud to keep open iuier-state communication, bttt to protect the rights of the individualy guaranteed by the constitution of the United States. Every day there bas been another step towards tlie end in view, a tightening of the lines over the lawless without even a momeiitary reliixatiou or backward movement. Saturday it was evideuced in the sweeping orders placiug transcontinental i railroad8 under nnlitai-y control. Suuday was marked by the addition of reinforcemeuts to General Hiles' command, and yesterday it was showu by the draft ou the naval forces at Mare Lsland to supplement the forces with which General Ruger will crash out the opposition to law aml order in San Francisco, Oakland, aud Sacramento. No one can teil what the next move will be, for it depends ou the developments of the next twenty-four hojirs, but it can be stated that the goveruiueut will not cease until the rebelliou agamst law and order has been quelled, if the tire power of the national governnient is required to do it.
