BRAIDwOoD, ILL.,, Nov. 18th, 1874.
To the Editor Of Tue wos kNoxAss ADVOCATE
1t is some weeks since | wrote TO you
last, but now that have leisure | will let
you know how We are getting along. We
are making barely half time, and our city
is overrun with strangers in search Of work,
but the majority of them, after staying .
few Gays with us, have to pick up and look
for some other field II labor We do not
wish to keep strangers away from this
place when work is plenty, but We do not
homes in the East, and come here under
the impression that work il plenty and
wages no object But believe when our
national association gets fairly under way,
and they issue their monthly journal, that
such instances will cease to occur and
hope that each and every liner will be q
subscriber to it, and then every man will
know where labor is in demand, and where
there is q surplus; but for the present
would advise all in search Of work to steer
clear of Braidwood.
La regard to politics think Braidwood
may feel proud Of her success, as We have
two members Of our State Legislature
elected this month-resideDts of this city.
This District went strong for the Reform
Ticket, and elected the whole ticket with
the exception of one man. Our friend,
VIM. Mooney, 9 practical miner, got the
largest majority ever attained in the Dis
trict. Cur other member from this place il
Mr.. Goodrich, merchant OF this city, and
man that has stood by the miners in
time of need, and think, although he is
Republican, he fully appreciates our plat
form; 30 we may expect both Of our Lsgis-
lators here will 90 hand in hand for the
amelioratiOn of labor, and the elevation of
the workingmen.
MR.. ALEXANDER CAMPBELL,
our member of Congress from this District,
went in with . good majority, and We in
this place feel assured that 1.-THE right man
is in the right place, and woe betide the
national banking corporations, if we only
had few more such men as him in the ma
tional capitol; and think that the miners
and mechanics, and others of the the 7th
congressional district, deserve the thanks
OF the whole1a element of the country
for sending to Congress one OF the Oldest
q well Is one Of the ablest Labor Re-
FORMERS of the nineteenth century.

shall be free from the chains that now 10
closely binds it, remain
