CHICAGO is the city in which the Ameri-
can cousins Of the European Communists
have chosen to make their most strenuous
demonstration for the support OF idle peo-
pie out of the public treasury, but it seems
that they could scarcely have selected
city so little able to meet their demands.
It is in deep and serious financial difficult
ties, having 81, 10000 to pay before the
taxes fall due, and only 100000 to pay
it with. The great expense Of rebuilding
the city has cramped its people. and the
treasury Golfers have been further deple-
ted by the defalcation Of Mr.. Gage. Mayor
Medill is a deep student of political econ
omy, and to help the city out of its trou-
bles, he has recommended something like
the plan by which France was enabled to
pay off its enormous war debt in two
years. His scheme consists in a PROPOSE
ton to issue Certificates of Indebtedness
of various sums down as low as 500, to b.
taken by popular subscription, payable q
the end Of six months, and receivable in thu
meantime in payment OF city taxes" TIT
PLAN may work well under favorable cir
stances, but, like an initiation Of the Unite'
States currency, it has many dangerou
possibilities that are almost probabilities II

WE publish letter to-day from the
Hon. Samuel j. Bayard, of Camden, New
Jersey, recently published in the New
York Tribune, touching the appointment
of the Hon. James Lyons, of this city, as
District Attorney for the Eastern District
Of Virginia. The letter assumes that there
is nothing in the political record Of Mr..
Lyons to prevent his acceptance of the office
so cordially rendered him. and we do not,
as yet, understand that the office will not be
filled by him. Rumor only reports that Mr..
Lyons has declined the appointment, but
rumor is not always reliable, and the OF.
flee may yet be filled by him to the entire
satisfaction of thel people of the State.

Tup organization of capital against labor

THE organization Of capital against labor
is an untried experiment, but we are likely
soon to hear of its result. The wealthy
employers of England have decided to hight
combination with combination, and have
Organized in q society known as the Ma
t;onal Federation of Associated Employers
of Labor including the names Of many
of the most prominent manufacturers In
Great Britain, and representing the en-
ployment of nearly two million working
men. The association claims to be for
purely defensive purposes. 1t will publish
a newspaper, watch every legislative propo-
sal affecting employers and employed, and
endeayor to give to /" education, intelli.
gence and capital their fair share OF infiu
ence in the constituencies" The labol
question has become in England mucl
more serious one than in this country
where the branch agitation nevertheless
iiourishes with considerable vigor, and tn
habit of the working people to apply wit
bristling front for any fresh concession tbs
might seem desirable has done them NOR
harm than good. The land question in Grea
Britain is one thing, the labor questio
another; yet the poor people subm
with comparative tameness to the forme
and great hardship, and seemingly fgh
against the manufacturers, with who'
they should cooperate for concession
that shall balance the exactions of IL
landlords.
