That Eight Hour Resolution.

With the brazen effrontery for which
the Organ is SO famous, it proceeds to
deny what are known to be facts, in regard
to the eight hour law clause at the late ma
tional-socialistic convention. Realizing
that the convention failed in its duty, failed
in its promises, stultiied its direct and
positive assurances the Organ hopes to
"bulldoze" its followers into the traces by
a wilful misstatement of the proceedings
of the convention. There is nothing to be
gained in the Organ denying facts and
perverting the truth; there were others
there WHO will bear the writer out il
asserting that the convention did refuse tt
endorse the eight hour lao.
But then what better can be expected o
the Organ. The workingmen who wer'
deluded into subscribing their pittance t,
the Washington fund, must feel deepl.
chagrined to see their own party go bacl
on positive promises. The minutes of tn
last meeting may show that the resolution
was adopted. but the action of the dele
gates proves that 1t aodS stricken out-MI

and two men, and the four walked out
Arsenal street to the foot of the bluff, at
which place, the mother and one of the
men walked on to the woods and the daugh-

of sight than the man who was with the
daughter, who is only IA years old
attempted to force her to the hill, she
resisted, and fought him, but he finally
succeeded in making her go along to a
ravine and shortly after screams were
heard in that direction. In the meantime

and Vim. Sanwar were watching the whole
proceedings and rapidly followed the par
ties, arriving in time to rescue the girl.

pose. He ran as soon as ne was detected

off with her little daughter, and she, believ
ing this, walked into the city with him
