MORNING REPORT.
The workingman's advocate. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1864-1877, 1864-11-05
APPLYING THE LASH,

Mr.. Jameson, lOf Jameson s. Morse, boss
printers on LaSelle street, VINO is on very in
innate terms with tic unprincipled proprietors
Of the rat rendezvous on Washington street, has
applied the lash III earnest 70 his employees, az
well as to one who eTpects TO be an employee
Of his, and whom we really sympathize with.
has been son the canvass " against our little
paper, soliciting such as he thought could be
induced 10 give " The ADVOCATE to do so, and
using such other means as was in his power as
an employer to get others to do likewise Now,
this Jameson never subscribed for our paper and
has always opposed it and the interest it is en-
gagged in fostering. He is, however the fittest
tool to be engaged in such laudable enter
prise, for it is well known that the firm, of
which he is member, cannot be beat for their
sneaking prOclivities in going around to other
printing establishments in this city to see what
work their neghbors are doing, and take notes
of the same. They then 60 and under-bid
those whom they pay friendly visit =, in
order to keep their " shop" agoing. Men who
will do this have no conscientious scruples to
wonder how some Of those boys like his mode
of advertising their names in the Frat sheet"
on Washington street? We know no honorable
printer would touch it with a ten-foot pole but
only imagine them as colleagues Of the God
forsaken scum Of that institution. Boys, you
have orr deepest sympathy, and we hope 70 see
the day when we will be able TO cut you loose
from all such despieable influences. The ''day
Of jubilee" must come, and i is very crafty
80 to us 10 know that some Of those boys who
have signed the q Indignation Of the-devil-doc-
ument " are uery sorry for doing 50. II must
be very Notifying to one or two Of the second
dddlers in this gigantic and praiseworthy en-
terprise that their names are not on cur sub
scription book, for they have been deprived Of
an immense honor il not having their names
appear in the "rat sheets " published on Wash
ington and LaSalle streets.

SHOW YOUR STRENGTH.

1t is absolutely necessary that laboring men
should show their power to command any
respect. As long as political intriguers can
keep the people so thoroughly excited on some
one issue or party watchword, as to command
their votes for men they dislike and who are
their enemies, there can be no cause to compel
them to respect laboring men. All they want
of laboring men is let them ride on their backs
into Office. If they can get them to permit
them to do this by party drill, it is all they ask.
Laboring men become mere machines to be
worked in harness. This has been and still is
the case aud we must say that no one is so
much to blame for il as laboringmen themselves.
If you viii not reward good acts done for you
or stand BY those who come out for your prin-
ciples, how can you expect to get people to 60
for your If you viii not show your opposition
70 those who go against you or treat you W tn
contempt, who will ever fear to oppose you
fou haze the strength, but you don't exercise
it. Like sleeping giant, you lay powerless as
an infant. If laboringmen ever hope to be re-
spected or to secure their rights and interests
they must commence acting and voting together
and in such way 80 will show all parties that
they have the power and the ,riH to reward
their friends and punish their enemies. The
only hope Of labor is in exerting then unitea
strength of numbers. When viii laboring men
wal up to this fact and practically act upon
il: II we are stolidly blinded by prejudice
as to be governed against sur better knowledge
and interests BY the bare name Of party, what
right have we to exreet to triumph over our
enemies

CHICAGO, Nov 8, TIob4-
hereby certify that am Carpenter, and
live on Division street, in The city Of Chicago.
That on Saturday, the 22d Of October, 1864, l
was trying to sell tickets to the Trades Assem-
BY Ball at the New Turner's Hall, being one Of
the committee for the Ball myself. Among
others | accosted John Wentworth, and after
showing him the show card announcing the
Ball aud its objects, requested him to buy
some tickets. He thereupon showed past me
and said to me q GO TO HE'LL p and remark
ca that he did not come there to deal in tickets.
His manner was rude, saucy and ungracious.
l am ready to make oath, if required, to the
above. ALEX. BLAIR.

THE TOWN BULLIl!
Wentworth on Public Morality ! /!


We have already suggested in plain way TO
workingmen what everybody, who has watch
ed Wentworth's administrations, knew beforel
that John Wentworth ground to death, degrade
ton and infamy every person who was unfor-
tunate enough to break the laws, and had not
money enough to bride his under-officers, or
influence enough to help elect Wentworth to
office. We have notified the people how he
kept up continued stencil in the public nos
triIs by asys.em of pulling small houses Of
low unfertanates, and petty gaming houses of
negroes, and others who had little money, and
no votes or influence, while first class prosti-
tutes and fancy gambling houses, where rich
men reyeled in vice, were protected, and allow
ed to flourish in the very heart Of the city
under the very nose OF Wentworth, and with
perfect impunity This dirty prescription Of
the poor and unfortunate was only equalled by
the scandalous protection and immunity Of the
rich and Influential huzzes and villains who
infested, diseased and robbed society.
But all this was nothing to the double damn
ed infamy Of the proceeding known as the
"TowN Bull" The facts relating to this in
tensely disgusting and scarlet-dyed viIlainly
were proven upon oath in the Recorders Court
Of Chicago, before the Hon. Robt. Wilson, to
whom we refer for the truth--the slcorR truth
substantially Of every word we say. With a
view to forward his design of gouging small
INES out of the low unfortunates, John Went
worth, as Mayor Of the city Of Chicago, employed
one Of his pimps, and paid him with the public
money, to 60 round to the different houses Of
prostitution, and commit unlawful acts with
unfortunate women, for the purpose of getting
evidence to convict these unfortunates of keep
ing house of ill-fame,! And what was the
last link Of the chain Of infamy was this the
man was actually supplied with the peoples
money to pay for thus Enormously ProstituiiEg HIM
SELF for The riIe purpose Of Swearing against the
Uery Domdn Chom the eitys money thus hired into
igtdmy for he sake Of getting fer dollars Jine!!
Such doubled damned infamy cannot have a
comment. Human language fails to supply
words for the utterance Of our horror And
yet the most humiliating and far the most in
famous part remains to be told. This same
man, John Wentworth, by his bold daring and
corrupt combinations, has secured the nou,ina-
ton Of a respectable party of our counTymen,
and by that ill-got nomination will fierce men,
aye, even men protesting to be pure christian
men, to vote for him. There is something dia-
bolical in all this which absolutely appas US !!
Laboring men. if you are not dead to every
sense Of your interests, your self-respect and
common deceacy, don't vote for such man !.
