WASHINGTON, June THE mass
meeting and parade of the working

night were the most orderly that
have taken place in this city for many
years past. The various labor organ
izations were well represented, and
the notices on the transparencies
were of very conservative charac-

ing given explicit orders that nothing
of an offensive character should ap-
pear in line. The procession moved
over the principal streets in the city,
and much enthusiasm was manifested.
Many houses were illuminated, and,
at different points, displays of fire
works were made. At the armory of
Company A, Washington Light In
fantry, the only military organization
in the city, there was an elaborate
display. At the City Hall, where the
meeting was held, there were congre-
gated fully five thousand people, and
with the arrival of the procession
their number was greatly increased.
The principal speakers were George
McNeill, President of the Interna-
tional Labor Union; DR.. Lawrence.
A 7. Cavis, DIR. Thomas, and John
Reynolds. The speeches and reso
lutions were conservative and calcu-
lated to prevent any violation of the

HAYES ImpOSed On,

The friends OF the Potter investiga
tion were loud In their declarations,
that they would prove by written COM
munication that President Hayes, had,
iur personal consideration favored An
derson for Ofhce, and when resolution
passed the committee that the Presi-
dent should send in the communications
relative to the appointment of the said
Anderson, there was general expires
sion of exu.tation. The letters relative
Il the appointment of Anderson wers
promptly seut By the President to the
committee, and TO his credit, and hop
or, and to the great discomfeiture of
the committee they fully clear the Pres
idcut. First came batch Of letters,
from Senator Mathews, and others re-
commencing Anderson for Office, they
were most favorably, drawn, and could
not tail TO impress the President in fa-
var of the witness Anderson, and being
THIS Impressed be answered one or two
of the letters, aud asked the Secretary
Of State to appoint Anderson to con-
sulship. Second, there was batch of
letters, that stated the character of An
derson, which when impaired to the
President caused hin TO write to the
Secretary of State, requesting him to
not appoint Anderson If he had not
already done so. The work of the
committee thus far proves tha. IN An
derson's case the President was impos-
ed on and deceived BY recommendations
from Senator Matthews and others.
Senator Msttbews also declares that be
was imposed on by the cunning man
Anderson, Matthews asks for Senate
ComDittee to investigate his case.

Be Careful What You Think. How
Yeu Act, and What You Say.

Eiison's Phonograph will receive,
retain, and recount expressions de-
livered at a distance of seventy-five
feet. 1t is something to almost mar
vel over, that a machine has been in
vented that may be Placsd N room
where a conversation is going on,
and record the conversation, and re
tain it, one hour, or one day or one
month, and, when desired, recount
the whole conversation as it was de
livered. 1t is wonderful that man
can so acquaint himself with vibra-
tory sound, motion, and vibratory
machinery as to construct such
machine.
There is lesson to be learned from
the Photograph Its power to re
tain and redeliver what has been said
in its presence, is overwhelming evi-
dence in favor Of the declarations OF
sacred writing, that every word that
a man utters, and every thought of
his mind is recorded in the next
world, and that when he gets there,
the record that he made while III this
world will be presented to him and
all present, and that he will be salts
fed with the verdict that will be made
on the record of his own making.
Those who are inclined to be skep-
teal on the point of record being
kept of a mans sayings and thoughts
while in this world, had better look
at it in the light OF the practical OPP
Grafton of the recording machine IN
vented by Edison, and say to them
selves, % If finite man can invent a
machine that will or can record every
word that a man says in its presence,
and repeat what was said in its hear
ing, at any time afterwards when de
sired, how easy matter is it for the
God of all nature, animate and inani-
mate, to have the world so construct
ed that every thought, word and ac-
ton of man is put on record, to be
redelived at the judgment day.
Viewed in the light of the Phono-
graph, the recording of the thoughts,
words and actions of men for the
Judgment day is a matter that to a
certain degree may be understood.
In other words, what a man can do
with the laws of nature in a limited
sense, the God of all the laws of ma
ture can do in an unlimited sense.
Be careful what you think, how you
act, and what you say.
