THE MACHINE STREET SwEEPER.--Yes-
terday afternoon street sweeping machine
was tested by authority of General J. X.
West, Administrator of improvements.
The machine is difficult to describe with
any clearness but the main feature is
cylindrical brush of about four feet in di-
alneter, which is under the platform con-
stituting the top of the machine. This cyl
indrical brush is about eight feet long, and
is placed in direction oblique to the
course Of the machine. When started, the
action Of the wheels turns the brush, and it
goes on sweeping, throwing the dirt into a
furrow and the next turn throwing il further.
and SO at each course OF the machine, until
the dirt is swept to the place of destination.
As we were informed on the ground, every
revolution of the wheel of the machine is
attended by sixteen revolutions of the brush
The machine seems to be very effective in
its operation, and cleaned up in about
fifteen minutes, the area comprising the
whole width of Canal street from TchouIi-
toulas street to the iron house. One man
sitting in the drivers scat can run the
whole affair. Colonel William Roy did the
honors of the machine yesterday, driving it
up and down until it had completed its
allotted task.
The cylindrical brush is composed Of a
species of birch bush. fastened on an axle.
This material which is, in fact, the Scottish
heather so often occurring in Burns
poems, has to be renewed every six weeks.
1t is very cheap, however.
The machine was worked yesterday by
Charles Hughes, Esq, Street Superintendent
of the First Ward, assisted by Mr.
James Dryer, foreman Of laborers in the
First Ward.
The action of the machine seemed to sat
isfy the lookers-on that a great i.nproveme nj
over the ancient mode Of cleaning the
streets is about to take place.

This is the last word we can speak
to you before election For the first
time i'll the history Of the country, we
have ventured on running one work
nominee for the State Lepisla-
ture. On him we should concentrate
our strength without wasting a single
vote on any other candidate. The pol
iticians may, and 10 doubt will, try to
persuade you to vote for three candi-
dates, under the plea that you will
lose two-thirds Of your strength if you
vote only for our nominee. But be not
deceived by false logic. If We elect
our candidate that will be A glory
enough for one day. lie has made
thorough canvass ofthe whole country,
making hosts Of friends in every pre-.
cinct. If the men who put him in nom
ination will stand by him TO the last
hour on election day, and give him
there undivided support, he will be
triumphant; f they divide their vote
among three candidates he may be de-
feated, for every vote given To any
other candidate will count one against
the election Of JoHN HINCHCLFFE, the
LABOR REFORM CANDIDATE, and to
that extent bolster up our opponent and
the opponents Of the progressive re.
forms inaugurated by the LABOR RE.
FORM PARTY.
Once more we say TO the working
men of St. Clair county, be rot de-
ceived by the false logic Of The fair
weather friends Of to-day. They would
divide your strength so as to render
you more easy Of subjlgation. Present
to all their specious reasoning the logic
Of consolidated strength, and you will
succeed, but you permit your strength
to be fritted away by divided efforts,
and divided counsels, you will he drag
ed, as captiyes, behind the chariots of
your cOnquerors.
The duty and the interest of every
workingman in st. Clair county, on
election day, il to give a solid undivid-
ed vote TO John Hinchcliffe, the work
ingman's candidate, and let the wefe
politicians take care Of themselves.
Vote plumper for our own candidate,
and we shall thereby teach our oppo-
nents that our wishes cannot be disre-
garded with impUnity.

ANOTHER VICTORY FOR ST. CRIsPIN.

Of st. Crispin, recently organized in
this city, on Monday the 3D.. made q
demand for an advance Of wages. On
the above date the employers were

it was announced that the ''bosses"

THE BIG BUGS
of the trade sat in council, and the
momentous question discussed was
whether they should give to those who
had created their veal the means to
sustain nature. To some it was to re
a very great occasion, an important
epoch, in the lives Of the customer
boot and shoe employers Of the monu-
mental city. There were great prepa-
rations, if madam rumor is to be
believed, for this to be ever memorable
occasion. Whole days, and even nights
were spent in study. The knife and
the rubber the measure strap and size
stick, and all the implements Of war
fare on leather were laid aside, and
the ''mongrels" betook themselves to
libraries to pour over the hidden treas
ures that lay hid away between those
calf-skin covers. The great day was
close at hand. The Auditor am of a
secluded "sheebang" in deserted
street was secured as also the services
of a very eminent reporter. Great
speeches were to be made-speechcs
that were intended to astonish shoema-
kerdom. The articulation was to be
perfect, the gesticulation par excel
lence, the attitute that of Webster or
a Clay. SO anxious were some of
those would-be great men to excel in
these matters, that some spent hours in
studying before their O. mirrors, and
it is said that one became so excited
in coming to the climax of his grafton.

The Democratic party has had its
days of grace-opportunites too which
will never return, and in what manner
we ask has it showed its devotion to
labor's interests ?" 1t is a notorious
fact that such men as Belmont, Van

THE REFERENDUM.

III announcer Column Oh inc ADVOCATE
will be found the platform adopted by
the Society of Free Thinkers, of New
York, which contains a number of com.
meDdable features, prominent among
which is the abolition Of the National
Bank System, al indirect taxes, mono
plies, and tie demand that all means
Of communication, such q, the post,
telegraph, railway, canals, &c, shall
be the property of and under the con-
troll Of the general government
The features however, to which We
desire to call especial attention, and
from which we are compelled 10
dissent, j. the establishment Of the
Referendum, by which the acts Of the
representatives shall not be enforced
until they have been ratified by the
voice of the people, and also that such
representatives shall be recalled when
ever the majority of the voters demand
it.
While these provisions contain a
certain degree Of FEASIBILITY, We con
slider them altogether iDpracticaLle. 1t
is true that in the Swiss Canton Of
Zurich and several others, the system
so far as tried has been found to work
admirably, but when the extent of our
territory, its divergent interests, the
fiuctuating character of popular senti-
ment, the complexity of our poll
teal machinery, and the ample opportu.
mites afforded Of testing the peoples
will, and repeating all obnoxious
statutes are taken into consideration, no
parallel can be drawn between it's
operation in Europe and America.
Moreover, as all fundamental organic
changes in our National and State
Constitutions must be ratified through
the ballot box before their incorpora-
ton is secured, the principle contended
for is virtually recognized. To under
take to carry out its provisions SO as
to include all measures Of a loca,
character, would. inevitably lead to in
extricable confusion. With reference
to the second proposition that the repre-
sentatives shall be recalled whenever
the majority of the voters demand it, the
objection is still more valid. How and
by what means is the demand OF the
voters 10 be ascertained IF the
action Of our legislatures is TO be
clogged by this enactment, il is quite
possible that every representative may
be recalled during their sessions. We
are all well aware that men elected on
one set of principles have frequently
proved false TO their pledges, but they
have been the exception and not the
rule, while the verdict Of an out
ragged constituency has almost invari-
ably consigned them to obscurity.
Taken altogether we can see nothing
but mischief in the adoption of either
of these measures, and do not believe
that they will or should be endorsed
by the American people.
