Of this city and State il becoming q little
muddled. There IL one fact which dsmon-
gtrates itself despite all the efforts a the
s'untsrri6ed" to cFpsh h, hat in the anti-
Democratic vote a the Stnte In afuwly but
steadily on the increase, and II u can be
kept up at the present ratio, win soon cDpe
with the Democratic party but there il
an evident want Of harmony among their
ranks, which If not healed may disorgAnize
the whole body. But we know Of what
malleable stuff this party is made.
THE REcALCITRANT REPUBLICANS
are ut loss TO know what to do. They
amt like TO become Democrats, mt least not
yet. They don't know what the Cincin-
natl Convention will do. The Temperance
ticket is not strong. They are afraid Judge
Davis, if elected, would give them too
much constitutional medicine. The Demo
Gratis are not very clear on their Party's
next move on the political chessboard, and
therefore keep still tongue. The Grant
men are satisfied, knowing that Possession
in nine parts of the law. All parties are
eagerly waiting for the result Of the
ELECTION In CONNECTICUT.
1t is thought that however it may 60, it vii
loosen the tongues Of the knowing ones,
and then the ''small fry" will take thu
echo. Yours, DC,

KIaHr-HouR LAW.

KIGHT-HOUR LAW.
The machanists and blacksmiths Of Mas
sachusstts have petitionsd Congress not to
repeal or change the National Eight hour
law, but 70 euxoree IL Other Unions have
joined in TIE petition.
rHR srATR MINnRs' ASSOCIATION
OF Hiinois has fourtssn thousand member.
The organization il i'm q prosperous condi-
ton. The labor movement in this State Il
ON the increase. They are for Davis and
Parker.
In Arkansas, . strong labor society has been
organized. The feeling in favor OF labor
interests ia greatly improved in that State.
News from these States shows that the
freedmen Of the South are uniting in the
labor movement, and taking much greater
interest in it than had been expected.
The oraeFn eT Mechanics
Are all in Q prosperous condition. The
Mechanical Order of the Sum-" and the
United Order of American Mechanics,
are the opposing orders in the East. The
Independent Order of Mechanics" and
Ecumenic Order of United Mechanics, are
increasing thir numbers, not rapidly, but
safely.
IN NEW YORK
Nearly all the trade associations have adop-
ted secret work, and are increasing more
rapidly than under the system OF open
meetings. They are driven TO this course
by the ostracising disposition Of bosses
lately manifested against the coopers in that
city.
OF the orders and representative organize
tions of mechanics throughout the United
States, ID now q probable result. Several
of them have the subject under serious con-
sideration, and it in more than likely that
the committees viii generally report in ia
vor okthe project.
THE LABORING MEN
In this city, who use pick and shovel, are
generally employed ct go per month. The
contractors for grading at Mission Bay foI
the railroad depots have secured an exten-
sion of time for doing the work, and viii
now push it. They expect to employ .
thousand hands. They can all be had in
this State, and more too if needed.

Bank.
Private individuals would be under the
necessity Of investing their SuPerMuous
wealth in productive enterprises, on equal
terms with labor for my own plan pro-
vides no bonds in which TO lock up their
wealth and cripple and hinder production.
The people taking back the sovereign
power TO make money and regulate its
value, hencefOrth become the great loaner Of
money ut Just and uniform rate of inter
est, which they themselves receive.
The perfect simplicity Of the plan ought
to be its greatest Recommendation. And
any plan that in not direct, simple and
easily understood, should be looked upon
with 6istrust by all reformers, a. all past
experience should abundantly teach.
Under this plan the people, Diminishing
the middlemen, cooperate 10 furnish them
selves q currency that is always convertible,
uniform in value, and Just measure Of
values. Each individual mortgages all the
wealth which he Possesses, as security for
its final repayment 70 the Financial Bureau
which prints it. In he worth $4,000
Then %, 600 represents his undived inter
est in the whole currency. Will the circu-
lating medium equal $50 per capita He
viii then receive interest indirectly on $3.50.
Or, in other words, a the sum Of ~. 10 2-3
is paid annually into the treasury ~ his
Just contribution, and applied TO national
and TO Stale purposes.
1t viii save to the producers in ten years
the enormous sum of SIC, 900, OO0, 900, now
stolen by four per cent. of the people. 1t
will almost double production for re-
manning with the producer he will add TO
his fields, his workshops, machinery and
means Of further production.
Being permanent in value because pos
sessing only an interest value, and being
unlimited in amount, and its interest value
lust and equitable and the amount in cir
culation being known with absolute Ger
tainty, business will cease to be blind
venture, and bankruptcies of individuals
cease 10 owe their origin TO fluctuations Of
the currency.
Against the cry Of give us cheap labor,
give IN high protective tariff, grant Us
subsidies from the public Golfers TO conduct
our private business, let US urge our just
demand Of give us cheap capital
Reduce our rate of interest below the
} rate Of other prosperous nations, and you
will cover our country with benefits and
blessings Production will be greatest in
that country where labor il justly reward
: ed. Just distribution Of products will do
} more TO accelerate production than any
: tariff or subsidy ever has. Interest is that
) power which distributes to capital and Ia
Dor, justly or unjustly, As the rate is equal
to, or more than half the rate Of the AZ
gregate increase Of national wealth. Eng
r land, with our present rates Of interest,
: would 90 to swift and sure destruction.
