A Boys History Composition.

Henry VI. died one day with great sue

Mary, Elizabeth and Edward The last
was the Ed Of the family. He was boy.
His sisters were not. Their father also left
Will. His will wac stronger than all his
children. BY will Earl Hartford was to
boss the State while Edward was young
lie was only ten wears young. Hartford
loved the glass so well he became tumb-
Ter, and was called the Duke Of Summer
set. He wanted the King to take the
Queen (of Scotland). but the trick was lost
because the Scotch refused to assist.
The Duke was called the Protector be-
cause ne protected his own family and
put everybody else away in the Tower
The border men Of England and Scotland
were those VINO boarded on the frontier
and bored each other almost to death
SO they hai a fight about Edward marry
ing their queen. The English attacked
them by water, which they couldn't stand
History says thatthe Scotch loss was ten
thousand and the English two hundred.

ments of business, fixing a minimum
amount per capita Of the popu' alton as
near as may be, and otherwise regula-
ting its value by wise and equitable
provisions Of law so that the rate Of in
terest will secure to labor it's just re-
ward.
FIFTH 1t is inconsistent with the
genius Of popular government that any
species of private property should be
exempt from bearing its just share Of
the public burdens. Government bonds
and money should be taxed precisely
as other property, and a graduated in
come tax should be levied for the sup
port of the Government and the pay
ment Of its debts.
SIxTH-Public lands are the COM
mon property Of the whole people, and
should not be sold to spectators nor
granted to railroads or other corpora
lions, but should be donated to actual
settlers, in limited quantities.
SEyENTH-Thc government should
by general enactments, encourage the
development Of our agricultural, min
eral, mechanical, manufacturing, and
commercial resources, to the end that
labor may be fully and proftably EN-
ployed, but no monopolies should be
legalized.
EIGHTH-All useless offices should be
abolished, the most rigid economy ia
vored IN every branch Of the public ser
vice, and severe punishment inflicted
upon public officers who betray the
trusts reposed in them.
NTH AS educated labor has de-
vised means for multiplying production
by inventions and discoveries, and as
their use requires the exercise Of mind as
well as body, such legislation should be
had that the number of hours Of daily
toll will be reduced, giving to the work
ing classes more leisure for improve
ment and their several enjoyments, and
saving them from premature decay and
death.
TENTH The adoption OF All Amerl-
can monetary system, as proposed here
in, will harmonic all differences in re-
gard to tariff and federal taxation, re-
duce and equalize the cost Of transpor-
tation by land and water, distribute
equitably the joint earnings Of capital
and labor, and secure to the producers
of wealth the result Of their labor and
skill, and muster out of service the vast
army of idlers who, under the existing
system, grow rich upon the earnings Of
others, that every man and woman
may, by their own efforts secure com
petence, 50 that overgrown fortunes and
extreme poverty will be seldom founc
in our republic.
ELEVENTH Both national aud state
governments should establish bureau,
of labor and industrial statistics, cloth
ed with the power of gathering ant
publishing the same
TwELFTH-That the contract system
of employing labor Ia our prisons ant
reformatory institutions works great in
Justice to our mechanics and artisans
and should be protected.
THIRTEENTH-The importation o
servile labor into the United States
from China, is a problem Of the mos
serions Importance, and we recommend
legislation looking to its suppression.

this end the national committee will

mentality Of this system of councils.

ellis the organization of counties. cities

The National committee will pub

writer's. The songs should be accom-
panied by the music, or should be set
to popular airs. The committee feel,
that this crisis shoull bring forth
such songs as similar struggles in be-
half of human rights have inspired.
The committee urges that local or
CARNATIONS he perfected rapidly, and
that tickets be nominated in localities
where there are spring elections. A

The committee respectfully requests
that Greenback and Labor local or
CARNATIONS now in existence apply for

such harmony and enthusiasm by the
