J. H. Langrishe has done first-class
business during the week at the Tabor
Grand. Owing to the success of the
original engagement, of three nights, q
re-engagement, embracing the remainder
of the week, was effected, and the bill
changed by the production of ''The

to have no equals in the character Of

The Grand will be occupied for six
nights and Saturday matinee by Shook

HARMONY AND CARE.

Those words should be the motto of
the convention this evening The great
est Of care should be exercised in the
selection of candidates for the various
offices, and when they are chosen the
feeling should be made unanimous.
Workingmen, in great many respects,
are like other men. In times like this it
is impossible for ali to think alike. Each
man will have his choice, and probably
there will be five or six names presented
for some one office. All cannot be chO-
sen, and let each delegate resolve upon
entering the hail. that, after. using all
honorable means to secure the nomna-
ton Of his favDrite, if he fails to be chO-
sen, to give his hearty support to the
successful one.
Only by such course can we main
tain perfect harmony, and exercise tn {
power We possess. Let there be a full
and clear understanding in the precinc
delegations, and let everything be up and
up and to-night's convention at East
Turner hall will name the successful
ticket in the coming county election as
sure as certainty itself.

BEN BUTLER has been nominated by
acclamation by both the greenback and
democratic conventions for reelection
to the governorship of Massachusetts,.
Mr.. William A. Simmons, in seconding
the nomination in the democratic con-
vention, on Wednesday, said; "The
blue blood and cavalier must 60 down.
The gentleman who was presented by
our republican convention is one of the
esthetic representatives of Beacon hill,
and his course there illustrates how easy
1t is to descend from the position of a
gentleman to that OF. a blackguard."
That's the talk, and if Butler will stand
on that platform, why will he not be the
man for the industrial classes to support
for president

A COMMUNICATION in this issue concern
ing Beecher arrived too late for publica-
ton last week, so the writer is not so far
behind as might be supposed. However,
he seems to forget or overlook the weak
est place in Beecher's remark about the
Chinaman not being thought much Of
because he has not drank whisky. The
old fool, if he knows anything, knows
that there is more drunkenness, among
the Chinese residents of this country
than among any other nationality.
Whether they celebrate their debauchery
with whisky, rum or opium, would seem
to make little difference, and that little
in favor of the whisky and rum.

REV. DR. MOORE, is engaged upon a Sc
ries of discussions concerning the rela-
tions of labor and capital and is attract
ing some attention. l would be glad to
see this able exponent of the gospel in
teresting himself in this important mat
ter if could have more faith in the re-
suit of his efforts, and if his lectures
were indicative of more thorough un-
derstanding of the subject than was dis
played in the discourse of last Sunday.
Laborers fully understand what is due to
capital, and are perfectly willing to grant
it, but it is the misuse of capital by
sharks and heartless monopolists that
the workingmen are objecting to at pres
ent. All these little goody -goody ideas
thrown out by the reverend gentleman
are all very nice in theory, but the

thinking workingman had been pushed
beyond them by the greedy capitalist
years before they ever occurred to DR.
Moore. The workingmen of this country
are not fools, and the pulpit hurts the
cause of Christ whenever it talks to
them as if they were. The toillng peo-
pie of this world have probably given
more thought to the question of the re-
lations of labor and capital than any
other class, and they have about arrived
at the conclusion that soft words will
never obtain their rights. I do not ac-
cuse DR.. Moore of belonging to the hire
ling class of ministers of which Beecher
is such shining light, but 1 do say that
if he wants to do the suffering poor of
the land a real benefit he will change
the tenor of his labor-capital sermons,
or let the subject alone altogether. On
the whole. little less church interfer-
ence in this matter-unless it be of the
exceptional kind-would be quite re-
lief at this time.

cease to be burden upon our state, and
will be source of revenue.
Such revenue would seem to be q
blister on the prosperity of any commu-
nifty or commonwealth. -
There is no need to discuss in detail
this subject. Every man in the country
who knows as much as a last years birds
4 nest knows that every dollar earned by
state from the labor of its convicts,
robs honest industry of at least four
dollars.
There are plenty of honest workers in
the localities which Hoyt will visit to
more than do the work the manufactur-
ers want done. If that work is sent out
here to be performed by Colorado's
law-breakers, the mechanics who should
be allowed to do it will suffer. ,ts.
A state government that attempts to
make its penitentiary self-sustaining at
the expense of honest, law-abiding la
Dor, that to make its convicts pay forty
cents day in labor for their keep, de-
rives respectable labor of the means of
existence, offers reward for dishonesty,
and creates criminals. &
Another harmful phase of the prac-
tice of letting by contract the labor of
convicts, which does not seem to occur
even to the people who suffer by it, is
that a. blow is thereby struck manufac-
turers, themselves, as class. Employ
ers who have their work done by honest
legitimate labor, cannot compete in the
market with those who have their work
done by convicts. Thus the manufactur-
ing interests of every community are
made to suffer, and an administration
that allows convicts to come into compe-
tition with legitimate labor, saves at the
spigot and loses at the bunghole.
Colorado is soliciting and begging for
manufactures, but she allows curse to
honest industry to be maintained in her
midst.
If the next legislature of this state does
not pass law prohibiting the letting by
contract of the labor of its convicts it
will fall far short of its duty, not only to
the bone and sinew of its population
but to that class who have placed their
trust and money in the hope Of future
prosperity.
The following from the Western Work
man, published at Chicago, is pertinent.
1T is not convict labor, but contract
convict labor that wOrkingmen object to.
Let the state employ its convicts at what
ever industry it pleases to elect, and put
the product upon the market at the cur
rent price. But the business of farming
out the labor of convicts to contractors
at thirty-fve cents day and permitting
these contractors to come in competition
with employers of honest labor has got
to be stopped"

SHERMAN'S CHARIVARI.

The cannon doomed and the "Chaffee
Light" sputtered Wednesday afternoon.
All the hub-bub was in honor Of the ar
rival in the city of General William
Tecumseh Sherman, one Of the expen-
sive ornaments of the United States
government. Bill is one of the boys
and wherever he goes he must have a
royal reception.
Such business is disgusting to the So
Der and honest sons of free and indie
pendent America" suppose, in defense
of the toadyism of Wednesday after
noon, it would be said that they were
paying homage to a hero itf recognition
of past services. Do any Of you ever
think of letting loose the batteries and
trotting out the brass bands when a one
legged ex-private or soldiers widow
comes to the city? And to whom does
the country owe most-the tinseled Off
Ger who rode comfortably in the rear
with a big salary, or the man who
walked into the cannon's mouth for the
sake of his country's flag? Who merits
the greatest respect at a free peoples
hands-the puffed up military aristocrat
who fattens at the public crib, or the
lonely widow who gave her husbands
life in freedoms cause?
Bah l am heartily sick of this wor-
ship of general" and "colonel," and
such loafers as Sherman are costing the
country heavily enough in fabu-
lous salaries and bonuses without vast
ing money in powder every time they
step off a car platform.
