Upton to convince Congress that the course ad-
viBed by him would not embroil Louisiana in

which he seeks to 1emody. Ho would Interfere

A vell-authenticatcd rumor reaches us from

Congress are using their influence to hive tho
President veto their Own bill, on the ground that
1t is really measure for contraction,-ao little
did thoy understand it's OBJECT when thoy voted
for it. The same rumor indicates that tho Pres
ldent is very likely to comply with their wishes.
Why should he not? Tho infationists being op-
posed to 1t because it contracts tue aggregate
currency, and the anti-inaationistB because it
sets tho precedent OF iaHuing more greenbacks
without providing for their resumption it would
soom that nobody is in favor Of it. II the Pres
tdent vetoes it, therefore, be can veto tt for two
roasons diamotrically in conflict with each other.
It is rarely that such an opportunity ia offered

Aftor two months OF idonoas, tho journoymon
ahooma1sors OF this city hayo takon tho advice
VIC gave thom at tho beginning Of their atrlko.
They have organized cooperative boot and
shoo company. Thoy expect to have their NOM
inal capltal Of 100000 taken up by about
160 mon. Thoao men havo now boon idlo some
fifty working days. During that timo they could
Lave earned, at tho rates offered by the employ
ors (94.50 day until April l, aud St subBo-
qaontly>, tho Hum OF $2s2.6o apiece. or ss4,s75
botwoon them. They havo therefore lost,
by stubbornly standing idle, much more
money than would suffice to pay up Ill
tho capItal needed to innugurato thoir
now enterprise. It has been an absolute loss
bocauso its objeot--tho subjcction of the mnstors
-haa not boon gained. Tho masters hayo
trIumphcd in tho contest. Thoy hare got all
tho workmcn they need on their own tor1nB. The
old employees have at last been driven to tho step
thoy Bhould have hastenod to take at the bogu-
ming Of tic eatrke. Yotit ia bottor late than never.
The price thoy paid for their folly should be q
warning to other artisans. Hore is strife in
volving tho waste Of thousands of 1ollarB within
d fov days, which results at last In something
that could have been done precisely ~ we'll on
the worry first day.
Tho members Of tho new organization calcu-
lato that IN employer makos profit OF a5 per
wook On each journeyman. II tl,ia ia 80
and IT they succeed in establishing tho nocea-
sary businoaa relations, there Is very sub~
stantial margin for profit on tho labor Of 150
mon. Tho co-oporators could afford to under
sell their ex-employers and yet mike far more
money themselves than they ever did under tho
old wages-system. All attempts Of this sort,
when workingmen try to holp themselves,
should meet With hearty popular sympathy.
