In a lecture about cooperation Mr.,
Henry c. Robinson, of New Haven, after
contrasting the condition Of the work-
ingmen of Europe with this country,
said:
Not long since, he went through a
factory in the state of, Connecticut, not a

Voice Of pride bOasted that he had made

passed through the factory and up near

'Anl how much time d0you allow

"Iwenty minutes" said the manufac-
tuner with a smile.
And how much do you pay them

Fifteen cents" and this answer was
accompanied by smile which Mephis-

NEW YORK, July 3O.-Monsignor Capel,

ANNAPOLIS, July 3O.-Tho democratic

sT. LOUIS, July 30.--Among those reported
by the police as having violated the Brown
ing Sunday law yesterday were livery stables,
breweries, cigar stores, BARRIERS, hackmcn,
theators, newspaper men, from the proprie-
tors down; street railway and express compa-
nies, the Union Depot company for sending
out trains, and various other persons. The
lager beer saloons in the central part of the
city, which opened in the morning closed be-
fore noon. The boisterous denunciation of
the law, and of those enforcing it, created
fears of q riot, but no arrests were made. All
violations observed by the police will be re-
ported to the prosecuting attorneys, who will
proceed against the violators in the proper
court. In police circles, IL is said, that next
Sunday the line will be closely drawn, and
arrests will, perhaps, be made. No distur-
Dances are reported tho popular discomfort
confiniug itself TO words. It is said q combi-
nation has been formed to resist the law and
prominent lawyers have been retained to
carry cases. If necessary, into the United
States supreme court. 1t is estimated that
! 1000 barrels of beer were sold yesterday,
which at SO q barrel paid the brewer $1,000
To this add the wines and liquors sold, and
the outlay of consumers reached fully S60,OOO.
This morning 236 warrants were sworn out
against violators of the Sunday law. These
were offenders in the central police district
of the city, and the other districts will bo
taken up tomorrow. The prosecuting attor
ney has decided to drop the cases against
liverymen, as he now includes their work in
works Of necessity. Test cases will at once
be advanced on the docket against the street
car companies and newspapers. The first case
will be tried in the court of criminal correc-
tion about the end of the week.

The Osceola times., 1883-06-23

The only object, we are taught in
Scripture, of such being as Christ
being born into the world was to be
the Saviour to all men. To do this He
must come in that condition which
is most universal. If we think a
moment we shall see that the great
mass of humanity begin life at the
foot of the hill, because of lowly cir
cumstances. To be Saviour there
must not be anything in His relation
to men, or in His position among
them to hinder the poorest in freely
approaching Him. 1t would have
been fatal to his influence in win
ming the hearts of men for them to
think He condescended from wealth
or station to minister unto them.
And so to be q Saviour to the world
Christ was born into 1t as one of the
common children, and lived their
experience. No grandeur of cir
cumstances, no earthly dignity, cut
Him off from personal contact and
sympathy with the lowly. Every
thing in His speech and manner OF
life was suited to this object. Every
condition to meet men on their own
footing was completed by the birth
of Christ.
The Osceola times., 1883-06-23

A suit has been entered against
Ex-Treasurer Polk, the Tennessee
defauiter, for certain sums of money
which, it is claimed, he had agreed
to contribute by way Of margins to
speculate in state stocks and bonds.
One day brings the news that a
county treasurer in Indiana is Sl5,-
600 short in his accounts, the dis
patch closing with the comprehensive
information =" that he speculatcd in
stocks" This brace of awful exam
pies of public officials who have used
public money for speculative purpos-
es is brought out in single day.
They serve to show how deep-seatcd d
the passion to speculate has become.
To them must be added a prominent
theatrical manager, with other cases
Of failure and defalcation in private
enterprises from the same ALIEN
bracing reason. The desire to get
something for nothing is serious
enough in its effects when victims
seek satisfaction for it by the use OF
their own money. When it comes
to such pitch that trust funds OF
any kind are resorted to for carry
ing on such gambling operations,
the result is such that it carries its
own moral with it. Philadelphia
Times.
The law allowing public officer
to be his own successor as often as
he can manage the party wires for
his reelection, is greatly productive
of this spirit of speculation. Nine
men out of ten who have been re-
tanned in position few terms in sue
cession become deluded with the
idea that the office and all the funds
entrusted in their keeping belongs
by virtue of having so often been
endorsed by their constituents at the
ballot box, to them individually
make the offices tcnable for one term
only, and you will have taken away
the temptation to speculate on tnts,
funds, making "pile" and return
ing the trust before the officer is dc.
tectcd and oustcd.

American Industry.

Will some tariilite tell us Just ex-
actly what is meant by "ihdustry"
When the carpenter works ten or
twelve hours a day, is that industry
When the miner works eight, ten or
twelve hours at his subteranoan busi.
ness, is that industry? Is there any
industry about the six or eight mil
lions Of farmers who plow and hoe,
who chop and NOW on the millions
of farms from the Aroostook to Ell
Paso; from Norfolk to Astoria?
Ever since the writer was boy he
has been listening to arguments (so-
called) in favor of tariff laws to "pro-
tect our industries" Now, to an old
farmer, it seems like treating farmers
very coolly, if not contcmptuously,
to entirely ignore them with all the
mechanics and laborers who work in
the field, the shop and mine, save
only operatives" under "pig-iron
Kelley" the lords OF the loom and
the saccharine lords who employ a
few thousand blacks in Louisiana.
Does it require no "industry" to
raise 100000 bales of cotton, the
millions of tons of hay, and the mil
lions of bushels of wheat, corn, oats,
rye, barley, apples, potatoes, and
thousands Of other articles of con-
sumption raised by our lazy farmers?
Its time for the people, producers
and consumers to put an end to this
internal begging for protection, for
tariffs protect none but plunderers,
1t is all class Legislation which takes
money from farmers pockets to place
in the pockets Of rich manufacturers,
Congress can not pass laws to enrich
one class without robbing other
classes.
If the truth could be known it
would be proven that nearly all the
congressman who advocate "protec-
ton " (stealing) are themselves inter-
ested in the stealing.
Where are the treasures and hearts
of Kelley, Malone, Jo Brown, and
nearly all the New England and
Pennsylvania senators and represen-
tatives?
1t is estimated that fully sS00,000,-
600 are paid annually by the people
Of the country to enhance the prices
of manufactured goods, whilst only
about s200,000,000 are collected to
defray governmental expenses.
Who's prOtedcdy
Sunset Cox has shown us that we
are taxed enormously all the way
from the cradle to the grave to add
enormous profits to manufacturing
nabobs. If what We pay could all be
paid into the national treasury and
applied to the payment of the billion
and a half of bonds still due we
ought to bear it complacently for we
should soon be free. If the tribute
money exacted went into the pock-
cts of the poor Operatives" we
might console ourselves with the
thought that we had contributed
largely to objects Of charity, but such
is not the Fact. We are robbed to
make rich men richer and richer.
a tariff is a device of the devil
and his satellites, the emperors and
kings, who plunder their ignorant
subjects, and never should have been
adopted in a republic. c. Z. ToyEY.
