House OF REPRESENTATIVES,,
Washington, D. c., Jan. %,
I1S80.-Dear Sir: Yours, in rela-
ton to the Chinese problem,
came duly to hand. l take it
that the question of employees is
only a question Of private and
corporate economy, and individ-
uals or companies have the
right to buy labor where they
can get it cheapest. We have a
treaty with the Chinese govern
ment which should be religiously
kept until its provisions are alb
rogated by the action of the
general government, and I am
not prepared to say that it
should be abrogated until our
great manufacturing interests
are conserved in the matter of
labor.
Very truly yours,

Fall River Operators Not Ready to
Strike.
FALL RIVER, Oct. "A delegation from the
spinners' union, including Secretary Howard,
met four mill treasurers this afternoon, and
had a discussion of several hours duration on
the question of wages and the threatened
strike. Each party presented its own side OF
the case, but neither would admit premises
from the other, and the meeting was concluded
without accomplishing any result. The spin
ners held their mass meeting at 7.30 this even
ing. The hall was uncomfortably packed.
The calling of the meeting to order was some
what delayed by the non-arrival OF the delega-
ton from the conference with the mill trea-
surers. No vote was taken on the question OF
striking, though it is stated that the meeting
was tumultuous to strike had the question
been put 1t was decided to leave the ques-
ton to some future time, when the manufac-
turers can be taken more at a disadvantage.

University of Arts and Sciences" has been
found in this city, the leading operator of
which appears to be Mr.. Harry Stickney, who
was one of the Buchanan faculty in Philadel-
phia. What number of diplomas have been
issued by the New England institution is not
known. Stckney asserts that none have been
issued in this country, but there are evidences
that some have been sent to Germany and other
parts of Europe, and an inquiry Oh the subject
has been made of parties here at the suggeS-
ton of the German minister at Washington

was soon afterwards repealed, but investiga-

National Committee of the National Green

is honestly and earnestly spending his own
time and money, and hazarding his health to
establish on such principles as he believes alb
soutely necessary to promote prosperity and
perpetuate the liberties of the American peo-
pie, ana no member of our rty should per-
nit these falsehoods to be uttered in his pres

The king returned with his crown just as an
honest farmer drove up to the palace in his
sleigh with a cream can he had found in a
snow drift. The king carelessly took off the
lid, and then staggered back screaming and
trembling-the can was filled with some pink
colored, thick stuff, such as never before had
been seen.
"Seize him. cried the king, 'he wants to
poison me-" and the whole court rushed out
10 protect the king.
make him eat of it, or off goes his headn'
says the king.
They expected to see the farmer drop dead,
but no! he spooned out the stuff as fast as
possible. At last the prince ventured to taste
and the farmer couldn't get the spoon back.
As soon as the king tasted he created the far
mer a duke on the spot; ordered hundred
guns to be fired; and promoted the prince to
be king, as he himself wished to open all ice
cream saloon at one end of the palace. The
ex-klng died very wealthy. While he lived
he hired all the poor people of Lactia to spread
fine ice upon the palace hill and roll his cans
of cream down to freeze. 1t was not until af-
ter his death that it was allowed that ice
cream could be made in any other way
