"The holiday season." the time when

kind, is here. Since the Saviour of the
world came bearing good gifts unto
men, this season has been celebrated
by the Christian world as an appro-
pirate time for cemeuting by acts of
Kindness and by friendly gifts the affec.
ton that all the members of our COM
mon family should feel for each other,
thus family rejecting the love which
our common Father bears for all his
children. In the selection of gifts as tes-
timouiais OF regard there is the widest
possible range. The cheapest trinket
may be the symbol OF more affection
than the costliest diamond. But yet,
in the purchase of holiday gifts we
would suggest that due attention be
paid to what the recipient most needs
and what will be most useful or most
highly priced. Ia the list of dealers
whose goods furnish opportunity for
the most appropriate selection we men,
ton the following, confident that
among these every reasonable want may
be supplied and that from these the
purchaser may rely upon receiving
courteous treatment and q fair ex-
change for the money spent.

National Industrial Congress
Adopted July ~. 1872.

WHEREAS, The recent alarming develop
ment and aggression of aggregated wealth,
which, unless checked, will inevitably lead TO
the pauperization and hopeless degradation Of
the toiling masses, render it imperative, if we
desire to enjoy the blessings Of the govern
ment bequeathed us by the founders of the
Republic, that check should be placed npon
its power and uni ust accumulation, and a
system adopted which will secure to the la
sorer the fruits OF his toll, and
WHEREAS, This much desired object can
only he accomplished by the thorough unifica-
ton Of labor, and the united efforts Of those
who obey the Divine injunction that 'In the
sweat Of thy face shalt thou eat bread" and
WHEREAS, While we recognize in the bal
lot-box an agency by which these wrongs can
be redressed when other means fail, yet the
great desideratum of the hour is the orRaniza-
ton, consolidation and cooperative effort Of
the producing masses, a. stepping stone to
that education which will in future lead to
more advanced action. through which the ne.
cessary reforms can be obtained; and
WHEREAS, While we fully recognize the
power and efficiency Of Trade and Labor
Unions, local and international, a. now or.
ganized, in regulating purely trade matters,
yet upon all questions appertaining TO Their
welfare as q whole the influence uf these or
CARNATIONS without closer union must prove
comparatively futile; Therefore
Resolved. That we submit to the people o.
the United States the objects sought to be nc
complished by the Industrial Congress:
First-To bring within the folds of the or
Iganization every department Of productive in
dustry, making knowledge . standpoint fo
action, and industrial, moral and social wortl

al and national greatness.
Second-To secure to the toiler an equa
share Of the wealth which he helps 10 create
more Of the leisure that rigidly belongs 4
him more SECRETARY advantages; more o. th,
benefits, privileges and smoluments OF ths
world; in word, all those rights and priv

ating the blessings of Republican institutions.
Third-To arrive at the true condition Of
