New YORK, July 1.-The Herald says pre-
parations have been made for general strike
of labor organizations throughout the country

eight hours as days labor. 1t is said that
the following trade unions have sufficient
funds to sustain themselves for two or three
months against capitalists: The Iron Moulders
of Pennsylvania, the Crspins of New Eng
land, the .Potters of Trenton, N. j., the
National Spinners' and Weavers' Union, the
Cigar Makers of New York, the International
Cabinet Makers Union, the Brcklayers'
Union and other great trade organizations
The affair is said to have been initiated by the
International Cabinet Makers Union of
Chicago some time ago, and the Socialists
have united with them. Meetings are to be
held in all the principal cities and towns in
the country next Friday. The leading men
are said to be James O'Neil of Massachusetts,
President of the International Trade Union:
Philip Van Patten of Cincinnati, Albert Curr-
lin of st. Louis, A. r. Parsons and Paul
Grottkair of Chicago P. G. Mcclure of New
Haven, George Winters of Brooklyn, S. E.

announcement
LIFE ASSURANCE I!

The Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety of the United States makes
the following announcement to the
public:
The dissatisfaction which pre-
walls throughout the community
with regard to OnerOus conditions
contained in life assurance con-
tracts and the judicial decisions
based thereon, together with the
public Endorsement of the liberal
usages of this Society, as shown
by its largely increased business,
has led the management seri-
Ously to consider whether the
contract could not be simplifled
and certain conditions erased
therefr0m which have been the
subject Of much criticism and
miScOnceptiOn.
After a careful examination of
the experience of some of the best
companies i'm Great Britain, who
have shown a greater liberality
than has been customary i'm this
country, this Society feels justified
in adopting a form of contract, i'm
which the following important con-
cessiOns are made to pOlicy-hOlders
throughout the United States:
1---POlicies will be made ineOn
testable after three years from
their date.
2---Each ordinary policy will
provide for a definite surrender
value in paid-up assurance, in case
the policy is forfeited after three
years from its date.
3---Each TOntine policy will con-
tain a definite surrender-value i'm
cash, in case of withdrawal at the
end of the TOntine period.
4---The contract will be concise
ly and clearly expressed, contain
ing only such provisions as are
necessary to protect the policy
holders.
5---The above concessions will
hereafter enure to the benefit of
all policies already issued and in
force after three years from their
dates respectively.

which l read at the outset, are finding their
echoes in many portions of the country which
was lately the theatre of war. No one can
read the proceedings at such recent public eel
ebrations without observing a growing deter
mination to assert that the men who fought
against the Union were not engaged in treas
sonable conspiracy against the nation, but
that they did right to fight for their States and
that, i'll the long run, the lost cause would be
victorious. These indications are filling the
people with anxiety and indignation; and they
are beginning to inquire whether the war has
really settled these great questions.
/ remind gentlemen on the other side
that we have not ourselves revived these is
sues: We had hoped they were settled beyond
recall, and that peace and friendship might be
fully restored to our people.
But the truth requires me to say that there
is one indispensable ground of agreement on
which alone we can stand together, and it is
this: The war for the Union was right, ever
lastingly right, [applause;] and the war against
the Union was wrong, forever wrong. How
ever honest and sincere individuals may have
been, the secession was none the less rebellion
and treason. We defend the States in the ex-
erclse OF their many and important rights and
we defend with equal zeal the rights of the
United States. We insist not only that this is
a nation, but that the power of the Govern
ment within its own prescribed sphere operates
directly upon the States and upon all the peo-
pie. We insist that our laws shall be construed
by our courts and by our Executive ANY
theory which is inconsistent with this doctrine
we will resist to the end.
Applying these reflections to the subject of
national elections embraced in this bill, / re-
mind gentlemen that this is national House
of Representatives. The people of my Con-
gressional district have right to know that
man elected in New York City is elected hon
estly and lawfully, for he joins in making laws
for forty-fve millions of people. Every citizen
of the United States has an interest and
right in every election within the Republic
where national representatives are chosen.
We insist that these laws relating to our ma
tional elections shall be enforced not nullified;
shall remain on the statute-books, and not be
repealed and that the Just and legal supervis-
ion of these elections ought never to be surren-
dered by the Government of the United States.
By our consent it never shall be surrendered.
[Applause.l
Now, Mr.. Chairman, this bill is about to be
launched upon its stormy passage. 1t goes not
into unknown waters; for its fellows have been
wrecked Ill the same sea. Its short and disas-
trous and may add ignoble, voyage is likely
to be straight to the bottom.

The Great "I.''

Some OF our most popular authors ar,
as remarkable for their vanity as for thei
ability. Victor Hugo is known all owe,
Europe for his colossal egotism, no less
than tor his patriotism, ard the English
novelist, Charles Reade, who has struck
powerful blows for great reforms, is as alb.
surdly vain and irritable under criticism as
schoolgirl.
Tennyson is said to have a very hearty
appreciation Of his own work. lie some
times reads his poems aloud, informing them
as English pastors do the church service.
A select party Of friends were invited to
hear him read 1.-The Idylls of the Kings"
before they were published. The poet
read, and the audience listened in rant
silence.
One lady, however, annoyed him by cry
ing out from time to time, s.Oh, wonder

as simply as achild's. We remembe, hear

He closed by an urgent appeal to them to
avoid the Use of all stmnlants, and to study
closely the history of current events.
Il have but one argument to submit to
you in favor of this course, but that is suf-
ticent," he said. II have studied the pro-
gress of events from day to day since

If vanity. even when justified by great
ability, and wellearned fame, makes man
a ludicrous Object, boys and girls may
Judge how offensive it is in them when
there is neither ability nor success to ex-
cuse it.
