same. Other trades ditto. OF course, we
want to touch bottom"
1t may be. all right SO far as the boys
get their noses snugger to the grindstone,
it makes them squirm little, and look
around and see what is the matter. A caH
for workingman's meeting is needed, and
there is no trouble in getting out an audi
ence now. Mr.. P. j. Mcguire, Of New
Haven, Conn, addressed large and en-
thusiastic meeting here on the 7th, and ON
the 9Th organized a branch Of the Social
Democracy, making the second-one Eng
lish and one German. Our townsman, X.
+. Trevellick. was called for after Mr. Ma
guire had spoken, and made one Of the best
speeches that it was ever my fortune to
hear. The audience was fairly aroused, and
the applause ia simply tremendous.
On the evening of the 18th inst, another
meeting, under the auspices Of the Sow
erei9hs Of Industry, was held in Young
Mems Hall A large audience was in at
tendance. Speeches were made By she
Deputy President Of the s. Of l., D. c.
Hodgdon, and the Hon Moses W. Field.
The advantages If cooperation were
presented and discussed, and Mr.. Field
closed with one of those sharp and telling
speeches on the finance question that
makes a deep impression on his hearers,
and marks him as master on this subject.
The following resolutions were passed
without dissenting voice
Resoired, That the act of Jan. IA, 1873,
entitled An act to provide for the re-
sumption of specie payment, being wholly
lmpracticable, unNlse and impossible of
execution, and AS it affects dissstrously our
material and industrial interests, creating
distrust and apprehension among business
men and thousands Of mechanics, artisans
and laborers out of employment, we there
fore demand its immediate and uncondi-
tional repeal
Resolved, That the President If this
meeting be directed to forward copy Of
the foregoing resolution to each of our
Senators and Representatives in Congress.
Mr.. John Orvis is here preparing for an
organizing tour of Michigan, for tbe pur-
pose Of extending the Order Of Soverigns of
Industry through this State. He expects
to occupy his time here ir Michigan until
the meeting of the National Council, March
81, 1876. John Urvis is another warhorse
in the cause Of Labor Reform.
The National Council of Sovereigns of
Industry will meet either in Cleveland or
Cincinnati; not yet positively decided.

II mas for a long time been conceded
that the State should furnish education
for the people, and an effort is being made
for compulsory education. But many con
tend that State education may soon degen-

and preparing them for the subversion Of
the republic.
II it is conceded as principle thar ne

more vital Importance than education
Food for the body takes precedence of
food for the mind. If the State should

COOPERATION.

The following BY George J. Holyoake,
one Of the oldest and best co-operators
living, will pay perusal. 1t 10 probable
there Is nothing in the English language
which gives better idea Of co operation /:
The distinction Of co-operators is that
they set the example Of work purposeful,
cheerful, hopeful, successful for the work
ers. What mostly existed before their
time was simply labor dislIked, people do
ing reluctantly what thy we're obliged 10
do. Cooperation turned toll into indus-
try, which Is labor animated Industry
means men working willingly, buslly, know
ing she reason why no apathy, no idling,
no bungling, no evasion W duty because
the profit Of each is in proportion to his
work, and is secured 10 hlm Cooperation
proposes that in all new combinations 81
bor, lender and capital lender, the pr
whce of profits shall be distributed, ia
agreed proportion, over all engaged IN
creating the profit. Cooperation means
concern for the diffusion u wealth. Ii
leaves nobody out who helps To produce it.
Those who do not know thus do not under
stand cooperation those who DO know il
and do not mean 1t are traitors to the prin-
clple Those Who mean II and 40 not take

ACTON, Jan. ~, 1876.
~ sac Editor u TsE WopK KN0zASs ADVOCATE.
In your issue Of Jan. ., question was
proposed by John Bornholt. which | Wish
TO answer The question, i'll substance, is
as follows:
What natural Law or condition shall de-
termine the amount Of currency, or paper,
representative money, to be issued by the
government to the people
Iput the question in ny own form, %
as to avoid any possible ambiguity.
la the FIRST place, there should be no ar
bitrsry limit resting on legislation. Ii
should be issued to all applicants on the
same terms. Amy one pledging two OF
real estate may receive one In certificates
of public credit. The price shall be the
estimated cost The return Of the notes
at some stipulated time shall constitute the
redemption. The quantity Of the lrren-
ey, then, is to be governed by the amount
Of real estate seeking representation in the
form 81 = public medium Of exchange
These notes must he as good as land
and the products of land, gold not except
ed They cannot deteriorate as compared
with the land. Currency would always be
plenty, but would not stagnate in the great
commercial centres; for persons holding it,
while having no use for the same, would
return il 70 the lssuers aud stop the inter
est
Now, | wish to ask, is the question an
swered Please remember what John
Ruskin says:
Money is correspondent in its nature
to the title-deed Of an estate.
Money cannot be arbitrarily multiplied any
more than title-deeds can"
Every note issued should be practically
legal claim upon some particular and
weIl-de6ned piece Of property That is to
say, it need not be specified on the bill, but
it should be specified on the security, and
as no bill could get issued without such
specification and guarantee. every bill
would BE- good; for me~here two dollars
worth If real estate stands pledged To- pay
every particular dollar
But as this method ot mediums uf ex-
change upsets all monorolies, all bonds,
and all interest hich would give dividends
to loafers-why, | cannot get the attention
Of any popular crowd. cannot lind any
body to find fault with it, they will not
even try But it will win some day, be-
cause it is just. 1t is in accord with the
philosophy Of Thomas Carlyle, the writings
of John Ruskin, Bishop Berkely and Her
bert Spencer. 1t In easily understood BY
men Of ordinary mental capacity; and let
it once obtain fair public utterance, 1t
will sweep the field

JEPF DAvIs's LAWSUIT.
He Claims $40, 900 from the Heir. Of
His Brother Joasph's Estate.

Some time since jefferson Davis brought
suit IN the Court Of Chancery ia Vlcks-
Durg, Miss, against the heirs and legateen
Of his brother, Joseph 4. Davis, for the
recovery u $4,000, purchase money Of
the Brlerheld plantation, situated in War
rem county, Miss. The suit has Just been
decided against the complainant
IL seems hat Joseph l.. Davis some fifty
years since procured from the United
States government two tracts Of land
known as Brlerheld aud Hurricane. In
1866 he sold them both tO his former
slaves, Benjamin Montgomery and hIs two
sons, for $500, 900, taking in payment
therefor the purchasers bonds and a mort
gage ON the property purchased for the
tull amount, giving long time Or the
payment Of the principal This was done
while jefferson Davis was IN prison,
charged with treason.
In 1870 Joseph died, dlsposing of hls
property bY will. The children Of Jeffsr-
son Davis were his principal legatees, and
Jefferson Davis himself was one Of the
executors. He qualified and entered upon
the discharge Of his duties as such, exc
cutting In part the provisions of the will.
He even laid claim 70 SlO, 0O0 against the
estate As a creditor Of his brother, which
was settled by compromise. After thus
recognizing the validity of the will, he
brought Sn action TO recover the so, ,OOO
above mentioned, the success Of which
would defeat The will under which he had
acted. He claimed title by adverse pos
session, saying that he entered upon the
0rierteld plantation In 1885, and held
possession Of il up to the time, that the

surrendered the properly TO the brother.
For the same prudential reasons" the
complainant claims, his brother wilied il

lowing him to take his own
Judge Hill held that Jefferson DAVIS ID
estoPped BY his acceptance Of the office of
executor under the will, and his claim
against the estate of the testator from de-
nying or impeaching in any way either the

lace collar went up (lot No. 101) and was
