THE Cooper'S Journal, for February con
tains a somewhat ill-natured criticism on
the articles which have recently appeared
in the WORKISGMAN's ADVOCATE on the
National Labor Union. Now, as a short
horse is easily curried, we desire again to
repeat what We have before declared, that
we will not be drawn into personal con
troversy, unless forced into it. We are
sure we cannot afford a controversy with
Mr.. Foran we are equally sure Mr.
Foran cannot afford a controversy with the
ADVOCATE, and we are very sure the labor
movement cannot afford, at this juncture.
at least, personal controversy among any
Of its representatives. Every movement
looking to or having for its object the ameh-
Grafton Of the condition Of the producing
classes has our cordial support, no matter
whether that object is sought to he accom-
plished by National Trades Assembly,
or National Labor Union. Brother Fo-
ran, we propose to cooperate with every
man or class of men, who seek to accom-
plish this purpose. This is our platform,
and upon it we intend to base our action
in the future, as we have aimed to do 50
in the past. Let us both strive, then, u
lay aside all petty chickering's, work for the
common good, husband our resources, and
devote our energies to a noblsr purpose

Death Loves a Shining Mark
Demise Of hrs {. o. C Willard. Second Vice Presi-
dent OF tbs National Labor Union.

Mrs. Elizabeth Osgood Goodrich Vii
lard, one Of the foremost women Of hsr
time, and the respected and beloved Vice
President Of the National Labor Union,
died at the residence of her husband, lO7
Throop street, Chicago, on Saturday morn
ing, February, 22nd, after a long and
painful illness. She was the eldest daugh
ter Of James Goodrich, If PIttsteld, Yer
mont, aud was born in that place on the
10Th Of February, 1915. Her father WAS
Captain Of a volunteer company in the
war Of 1872, and could trace his ancestry
back to the old Goodrich castle, still stand
ing in Scotland, whence his grandsires EN-
igratsd Miss Elizabeth received her pri-
mary education at Middlebury and Castle
ton, VT, and completed her course Of
study in the academy at Wilberham,
Mass. She remained under the parental
roof till the age Of 22, when she came West
with relative and made her home in st.
Louis, where Mr.. Willard met and mar
ried her in the year 1874 In August,
1861, the family removed to this city, Mr..
Willard transferring his business to a more
favorable point
Up to the time Of the sickness which ter
minated fatally, Mrs Willard enjoyed
more than the average amount Of good
health. She reared family of five chill
dren, four sons and one daughter
Of whom live to mourn their irreperable
loss In June last she was attacked with
inflAmmatory rheumatism, which eventually
brought on dropsy Of the heart Her suf-
feri Igs wero often Of the most excrucia-
ting character, though she bore them with
for her, yet she desired 70 live for the
good she thought she could accomplish
Her symptoms gradually became more
dangerous, until ON Saturday morning
last, after a night of intense agony, she
passed peacefully away TO that better land
where contention, sin and sorrow or vexa-
tlon are unknown.
In the death of this distinguished wo
maH, the labor movement has lost one o.
its ablest advocates, and society one o
its brightest ornaments. For the past fiv,
years we have enjoyed the privilege Of al
intimate, personal acquaintance, and hav,
always found her safe and reliable coun
seller. She was possessed of strong, ma
tive common sense in fact this was tn,
distinguishing trait of her character. A,
a logical reasoner, she had few peers, anc
her arguments generally convinced tn,
skeptical that abe was master of the situa
