RE-PuRLISHEn.

A few weeks before the death of the
late VIM. Fl. Sylvis, we published a
series of articles from his pen, on the
subject, "What is Money in which
the rotteness and iniquity Of our pres
ent financial system was thoroughly and
ably exposed, and the monetary prin-
cipIes Of the National Labor Union,
elucidated in a manner which brought;
them within the comprehension of the
humblest He believed them to be the
ablest efforts Of his life, and as the de-
mand for them came from all quarters,
it was our intention to have had them
stereotyped and printed in pamphlet
form. The editions containing them
are now entirely exhausted, and in
compliance with a general desire, in
the present issue we commence their
republication.

A friend, writing from Cincinnati,
under date Of Anril Ia SAYS

a lliNA'Ay "AiNLhS liPi'A
under date Of April IA, says:
/ To YOUR article on he New York Working
mems Union | certainly can't gree, and think
if Won thoroughly understood the case YOU
would not take the side YOU did We had the
same kind Of a case in this city, and We done
exactly as they did in New York. No set Of
men, We claim, ire entitled to double represen-
Jation in our Assembly. Fourteen men be long
to Trade Union seven Of them start cooper
alton, the fourteen are entitled to two delegates
| a. a Union the seven to two as co-operators
consequently fourteen men have four delegates
To all of which we say, the cases are
not parallel. If the report received
from New York was correct, the objec-
ton urged against the admission of the
cooperative delegates was that they
were the representatives Of capital, and
consequently had no right in the Work
ingmen's Union; IN other words, that
the representatives of no class but the
,rdges class were entitled to admission.
If the objection was the one presented
hy our Cincinnati correspondent, a
provision in the constitution or bylaws
would easily have removed it, and
there would have been no ground for
objection. But when powerful repre-
sentative labor body, like the New
York Workingmen's Union, takes the
broad ground that the moment a man
ceases TO work for wages he necessarily
becomes an enemy Of the wages class
and their action means this, if it
means anything-we believe it to be
the duty of every real friend of pro-
erosion to protest against such action.
If the resolutions passed may be ac-
cepted as data upon which to base an
opinion, the same action would have
been taken if the delegates claiming
admission had represented one thous
and or ten thousand members. Nay,
further; if they had based their obiec-
tons on the ground that none but
members of trades unions were entitled
to a voice in their deliberations, they
might have shielded their intentions
under the plea Of consistency, but when
such opposition is based On the decla-
ration that delegates from cooperative
organizations are the representatives.
Of capital, no such palliation can be Of
fered.
But we have no desire to be misun.
derstood We have never advocated
the theory Of those who affect to be-
iieve that cooperation Is the only true
solution of the Labor Problem We
believe in trades unions, iHeir necessity
and beneficial results. For twenty years
We have been directly connected with
them, and in our humble way advocated
their formation among every branch Of
mechanics. We do not believe that
the time viii ever come when the
business Of the country will be con
Quoted by cooperative enterprises,
much as We would ike to see il, and,
consequently, demand full and equal
justice to the wages laborer, by far the
largest class in the community. What

One very important piece Of informa.
