LAKE FOREST. ILL, May 1. 1870.
To the Editor Of the Press:
There are numerous lines of business inter.
ests connecting Portland and the east with
Chicago and the north west, or the "interor''
as we find ourselves sometimes called, from
the rapid strides with which tha. relative Sec
tioL, the "West, is recedng toward the Pa
cific. Intelligent readers are interested to
know, however, that business in its more ma
terial sense does not absorb and control this
great and live community, to the exclusion of
educational, esthetic and religious enterprise.
In addition to older institutions, in success

Moulders International Union.

At the recent session ofthis body the
following resolutions of respect to the
memary of their deceased President,
VIM. II. Sylvis, was unanimously
adopted.
WHEREAs, We have been called upon since
the adjournment Of the last Convention, to
mourn the loss of one who had been the chief
executive officer of the International UuioA for
the space Of nearly seven years and
WHEREAS, Ii seems fitting that We should
give some expression Of our feelings with regard
to the grea. calamity which has befallen us,
therefore be il
Resolved That we always recognize d in VIM.
II. Sylvis a man Of unhnching integrity, Of in
domitable will, and of answering fidelity to the
organization, combining in hlmself all the quail
ses necessary to fit him for the arduous aud res.
ponsible position he held.
Resolved, That every days experience only
proves to us more concIusively how great is the
loss We have sus aimed, and how almost impos-
sible it will be to fill the vacancy oecasiOned BY
his death
Resolved, That hs force Of character and bis
untiring zeal III the great work to which he De
voted his life plain, SO visible to tie eyes
of all men, that even his enemies, land he had
many,) united with his friends in eulogizing him
after his decease. Neither the great events
which brought him prominently before the
world, nor the uucqualed talents which he de-
voted to his work, could be ignored and Of no
ma1. could it more truly be said, He richly
merited all the praise that could be bestowcd
upon him"
Resolved, That his memory shall long live in
our hearts and be kept in the records of our or
ganiz 4tion, as that If a man whom no temp.a-
ton could seducs from the path of reetitude
Although he had ample opportunity IL DO SO, he
never betrayed trust repos in him. No offer of
political promotion could lure him from His duty,
and the best proof Of bis integrity consists in
the fact tnat he died without sufficient means
to bury him.
Resolved, That we will ever consider those
who we're near and dear to him as objects Of our
especial care, ana that we will eadeavor, by
protecting item, to repay him in some mea sure
for the years Of toll and anxiety he devoted to
the interests Of our organization.

When these creatures enter into a con-
tract with the agents, to come here and
work for wages that would not put
bread into the mouth of an ordinarily
ambitious white man, it is not presumed
they are forced TO do 50 by brute
strength, but they are inveigled into
the bargains by q base representation
OF the condition of affairs in this coun-
try. If we had no other evidence, the
stipulation in the contract for their re-
turn to the home of their nativity,
dead or alive. is sufficient proof that
they do not come as emigrants, and
those who induce them to come, are
actuated by no desire to benefit the
consuming community, but by an snx-
iety to'pocket the profits that are to be
made on their labor. The Secretary
OF State knows, as we all know, that
this importation business is in direct
violation OF a law enacted expressly TO
cover the matter, and that even were
it not so, it is gross outrage upon the
Liberties of our people, in which We at
least see sufficient cause for omen rebel
lion against those engaged in, and
those who sanction it. Perhaps the
Secretary of State will be made to see
it in the same hight
The workingman's advocate. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1864-1877, 1870-08-06

AMONG the Resolutions adopted Ly
the Republican State Convention of
South Carolina, we find one appealing
to Congress to open to settlement and
presumption the forty-eight millions Of
acres Of unoccupied public lands in
the South. Whitmore, Of cadetship
frauds notoriety, was chairman of the
Committee which drafted the resolu-
ton, and though no more of a rascal
than the majority Of his late colleagues,
he is scarcely fit person to be en-
trusted with the important task Of lay
ing down the fundamental principles of
aparty organization. Nor is his past
record any guarantee that he will prove
faithful to any principle that looks like
opposition to the moneyed interests,
for whom it seem, these lands are held
in trust.
Let this action, however be copied
by other political conventions, and a
demand made that all lands granted
to railroads, or other corporations, not
in possession Of actual settlers, or oc-
cupied for legitimate business purposes
be declared forfeited to the first set
tiers who choose to make their homes
on them, and bring to the surface their
atent wealth.
