Compulsory Charity.

Our readers will remember that little less
than year ago there was trouble between
the employees and owners of the Colorado
Iron Works, because of an effort upon the
part of the latter to force the workingmen to
contribute, out of their, pay each month, to a
/" hospital fund" which was to be used In
the erection and maintenance Of hospital
at Pueblo, where the sick and injured en-
ployes of the company could be sent and ta-
ken care Of This at least was the object as
represented by the mill owners. The men
that they preferred to handle their wages
and be taken care of by. their own family
and physician at home in case OF sickness or
accident. The result was, nearly all OF the
force were discharged and men imported
from the east to take their places;

Is such a proceeding right, and to be sub

corporation have the right to appropriate a

carry out their whims, what rights undel

to another little piece of beneyOlence practi-

opened over at the shops short time ago,
called the "Birnham library" and the papers
of this city teemed with commendatory noti-

and the munifcent donations of numerous
citizens of Denver. We are reliably inform
ed that the employees of the shops were tax
ed 81 each to start the great free library, and
then charged So per year for the privilege of
enjoying it.
Now, it is time this kind of business was
stopped, or at least the truth told concerning
the methods employed, and we propose to
show up the dark side of all these sO-called
charitable acts whenever we can get hold of
the information. Bless God! we are in a
position to say the truth, not only about this
one, but every monopoly and corporation
that exists ON the continent and we fear no

From Headquarters.
ANTI-MONOPOLY HEADQUARTERS,
BRIGGS HOUSE, CHICAGO, May 13.


BRIGGS HOUSE, CHICAGO, May IL.
To the Editor of The Labor Enquirer.
Your letter of inquiry regarding the
anti-monopoly movement and the COM
ing conference of July 4, is at hand and
l take the first leisure moment to reply ::
In January last few gentlemen, prin-
cipally business men, on consultation
decided that the time had come when
independent political action in national
politics was demanded of every man not
willing to bow submissively to the edicts
of giant monopolies, grown fat and lusty
by the ABSORPTION of an unfair portion Of
the proceeds of the industrial enterprise
of the people. They, therefore, began a
correspondence with other gentlemen
throug ghout the country, which resulted
in the issuing Of a call for delegate
conference to meet in Chicago, July f.
next, for the purpose of organizing a
new political party to espouse the cause
of legitimate industry in the irrepressible
conflict entered upon between the con-
federated monopolies and the people.
The object which the original signers
to the call had in view was and is the
union of all who hold to the belief that
the state and general governments should
control the corporations which they have
created, and that labor at least equally
with capital, is entitled to the benefits
which free government is supposed to
secure. These gentlemen organized
themselves into provisional committee
and at their request the writer of this
took upon himself the work of CORES
pondence, and has done the best he
could to interest the business and pro-
ducing classes in the movement.
There has been very little formality
about the work. We did not seek to lay
down platform, but named what we re-
garded as the great essential reforms
those which if carried out would bring
relief to the overburdened laboring
masses of the country and remove from
business enterprises those unequal and
unjust determinations which crush out
scores of the smaller manufactures and
business houses of every desert ption, in
order to build up a few gigantic estab-
lishments and millionaire princes of
trade. We have depended entirely upon
voluntary contributions from the people
for the means of carrying on the work,
and when these were insufficient the
members of the committee have footed
the bills out of their own pockets.
No prominent politician and no one
wanting job" has contributed a penny
to the work. 1t is simply and only an
effort of business men and producers to
organize political party that will run
public matters in way to secure to
every one just what they earn.
The provisional committee will con-
duct the correspondence and arrange for
the reception of delegates and the secur-
ing of of a proper place for their meet
ing; and with that meeting their power
and responsibility will end, as the con-
ference will undoubtedly lay down a
platform and provide for the election of
a national committee, composed of a
member or members from each state, in
whom will rest the authority to direct
future organization.

Plain Facts Plainly Spoken.

At one time the discussion of the secret
vice was entirely avoided by the profession,
and medical works of but few years ago
would hardly mention it.
To-day the physician is of a different Opin-
ion; he is aware that it is his duty-diSagree-
able though it may be-tO handle this matter
without gloves, and speak plainly about 1t
and intelligent parents and guardians will
thank him for doing so.
The results attending this destructive vice
were formerly not understood, or not properly
estimated; andnO Importance being attached
to a subject which by it's nature does not in
vite close investigation, it was willingly ig-
nOred.
The habit is generally contracted by the
young while attending school; older compan-
ions, through their example, may be responsi-
BILE for it, or it may be acquired through acci-
dent. The excitement once experienced, the
practice will be repeated again and again,
until at last the habit becomes firm, and Com,
pletely enslaveS it's victim. Mental and ner-
Yous Affections are usually the primary results
of self abuse. Among the injurious effects
may be mentioned laSSitude, detection. or
irascibility of temper, and general debility.
The boy seeks seclusion, and rarely Joins In
the sports Of his companions. If he be a
young man, he will be little found in com
pany with the other sex and is troubled with
exceeding and annoying bashfulness in their
presence. LasciViOus dreams, emissions, and
eruptons on the face, etc., are also promi-
nent symptoms.
If the practice is violently persisted in,
more serious disturbances take place. Great
palpitations of the heart, or epiGeptic conyul-
sions, are experienced and the sufferer NAV
fall into a complete state of idocy before
finally, death relieves him.
To all those engaged in this dangerous prac-
tice, Iwould say, first of all, stop it at once,
make every possible effort to do so; but if vol
fail, if your nervous system is already too
much shattered, and consequently your will
power broken, take some nerve tonic to aid
you in your effort. Having freed yourself
from the habit, would further counsel you
to go through a regular course of treatment,
for it is great mistake to suppose that any
one may for some time-be it ever so little,
give himself up to this fascinating but dam
gerous excitement without suffering from
some of it's evil consequences at some future
time The number Of young men who are
incapacitated to fill the duties enjoined by
wedlock is alarmingly large, and in most OF
such cases this unfortunate condition of
things can be traced to the practice of self
abuse, which had been abandoned years be-
fore. Indeed, a few months practice of this
habit is often sufficient to induce sper1nator-
rhea in later years, and have many of such
cases under treatment at the present day.
