than he received when he was a drink ing man and in less than five years they had paid up the debt and had better clothes, better food, etc and he had bet ter health and character. He quoted the story told by John Russell of dutchman out west who was arrested 3 times fors rselling liquor. Hans was fined for the first offense, $20 and costs, he sad to the Judge, "I pays and I sells agaln, " his second fine was $40 and costs, Hans replies as before, q pays and sells again, the third sentence was three months in jail, Hans re- plies 'I stops" MT Range then added, prohibition is a success. He gave an in teresting account of the recent burglary of MT Ives house at Essex, Conn, and pictured the course Nehemiah took with the people who bought and sold mer- chandise outside the walls of Jerusalem on the Sabbath, and he drew the moral from these occurrences that prohibition was not @ failure. He described his happy home of to-day and compared it with his home when he was @ drinking man, and said should his boy ever be enticed or allured into drinking habits, no rum seller could ever explain to him that boys ruin or give an excuse for causing it, or excuse himself for selling that boy liquor. With all the force he could command he uttered these words ''let us give our government some other foundation than lager beer keg, and plant our flag on something besides @ whiskey barrel" He told story about a cat that crept up on an authors table three times in successian, each time the author rang bell and called servant whom he directed to shut that cat up in the wood house, and stop up the hole in the wall through which the cat es- capped from the wood house, on the cat appearing in the library for the fourth time the author inquired what the ser want used to stop up the hole ill the wall, the servant replied "a stove pipe,
 
 rumsellers are the cat and Aigh license is what we are vainly trying to stop liquor selling with, but the cat returns every time and is clawing at the very vitals of the nation. At the conclusion of MT Ranges address, MT Wilson from Tar iffville sang solo, "sound the alarm," next the whole assemblage sang the grand hymn Sweet By-and-by." The benediction was pronounced by the Rev H w Connant. A few moments were spent in hand shaking and then the To- comotive whistle warned all that it was time to turn their faces homeward. All left the grounds feeling it was day we'll spent. The liberal contributions made that day to the temperance cause rejoiced the heart of Secretary Winter and he went home encouraged to con- tinue his noble work.

Temperance Picnic at Iakeville.

The quarterly convention of the Con- necticut Temperance union was held in Gov Holley's grove Lakeville, Conn. Wednesday, July 25. It was beauti- full day and scarcely ripple disturbed the surface of the lake, while in the grove the air was cool and invigorating The attendance was as large as could be expected, when we consider that this is an unusually busy season with the farm ing community. The speakers stand had been erected near the lake and six rows of seats extended up the incline to the pavilion, and all could see and hear the speakers. The excursion train from Hartford stopped at all stations, and when 1t reached Lakeville it numbered seven cars all filled with earnest temper ance workers, residents of the towns on the line of the railway. The train ar rived at the grove at II M, and at the call of cornet the people assembled in front of the speakers stand. Secretary Winter in his inimitable way, shouted ''that means take your seats.'' The ex- erclses were opened with music, Rev G II Griffin of Milford playing @ cornope- on accompanied by MT Malon Winter on cornet. The chairman, Professor D N Camp of New Britain, in behalf of the Connecticut Temperance union, well comed the people to the beautiful grove with its stately trees, and called atten- tlon to the lake and the surroundines. stating it was fitting place to hold the convention and that the perfect day was ill harmony with the occasion. He said to the old men gray in the temperance service, men in middle age, young men. maidens and little girls, all welcome :! God reigns, trust in him and go on in this grand and noble work. Rev Mr. Curtis of Hartford then offered @ feryent prayer asking an especial blessing on the temperance cause. The hymn "All l hail the power of Jesus name''was then sung by the entire assembly. The chairman then introduced Rev George H Griffin of Milford.

THE Catskill Daily Mail of July 2S, asks question concerning the trade dollar. Whoever can give satisfactory answer will enlighten the public. At present the trade dollar is below par:-
 Secretary Folger, in speaking of the trade dollar, says:
 "A joint resolution of Congress, ap- proved July 22, 1876, provides: sThe trade dollar shall not, hereafter, be le- gal tender, which is very significant. As this resolution has not been rescind- ed or modified, the department has con- celyed that 1t has no authority to order the sub-treasury officers to receive trade dollars, as indicated
 Why not ? The bills of national banks are not full legal tender. And yet every custom house and post office Tn the country take large amounts of national bank notes every day in the week. The idea that the government cannot take its own coin, because it is not full legal tender, is not warranted by experience.
 The taking of national bank notes by the government shows that the position occupied by the secretary is everyway untenable. Government officials have the same right to take trade dollars that they have to take bank notes That Secretary Folger should doubt this for 8 moment is matter of very great sur prise.''

THE NEWS is not the organ of any po- htical party or faction, therefore in pre- senting the following item clipped from the New Haven Union of July 26, it asks its readers to lay aside their party spirit and preiudices and honestly and impartialy consider the question of Capital and Labor as presented in the issue between the telegraph companies and their striking operators. Monopo- lies generally are not beneficial to the public good and whether that monopoly be railroad, telegraph corporation or 3 Brotherhood of telegraphers or Loco motive engineers, they are apt to dic- tate terms that are unjust. No doubt the striking telegraph operators have many grievances but they must be care ful not to demand unjust wages from their employers, otherwise they place themselves in the position of monopo- ly aud thus loose the sympathy of the public:- 9.
 While the press generally has express ed it's cordial sympathy with the tele-
 graph operators in their attempt to wrest fair treatment from the Western
 Union monopoly there are some very significant exceptions. The New York Evening Post and the Commercial Ad-
 vertiser favor the passage of law to de- prive telegraph operators of the right,
 hitherto supposed to be enjoyed by ev- cry American workingman, of with drawing from his work when not satisi- ed with his wages. Such action on his part may be foolish or indiscreet, may not be the best remedy for what he consid- CTS to be an injustice, but it is @ ques- tion which every man has the right to decide for himself If he hasn't this right, he is virtually slave, no longer the owner of the labor he has to dispose of in the market, but compelled by force of law as well as necessity to submit to whatever terms may be offered him. The Chicago Tribune, the leading Re- publican journal of the West, favors a similar law, putting it on the ground of "public convenience " always the pre- text of despotism. It holds that if the telegraph companies accept as condi- tion of their charters the obligation, at what ever inconvenience to themselves, to receive and deliver the communica- tions of the public, it is not less to be insisted upon that the employees, by whom alone this service to the public can be done, shall stay at their posts. But this would be to make the employ es of great corporation its slaves bound to accept any wages and any conditions of labor the compa- ny might please to impose. It is very significant and the workingmen of the country will do well to note it, that this revolution in the relation of employees to their employer-of labor to monopo- list capital-is advocated by Republi- san journals in New-York and Chicago. It menaces not alone the rights of one class of laborers but the rights of all, | and threatens them in the interests of
