hands, if it fails, with the class that has
been throwing mud at them for the past
three months? Would it not have been
better wisdom to have counseled care in
selection of delegates to Chicago, and
then have stood ready, with clean
hands, in the event of failure, to wei
come all reformers into the ranks of the
greenback or any other reform party !?
Reform is reform, no matter under what
party name it is accomplished, and the
man who is honest in his efforts to carry
out the true principles of reform is not
in the ranks of the bushwhackers who
have endeavored to cast odium upon the
Chicago movement.
If the anti-monopoly movement falls
through, shall still be an advocate Of
the principles it processes, and | shall
devote my life to its triumph, but shall
very naturally decline accepting as my
friends the clannish, wolfsh characters
who have tried so hard to defeat tnelr
advancement in this instance.
1 haven't much of this worlds goods,
but l will bet what l have that if the
Chicago conference results as the NAL
contents have predicted, the greenback
vote of the United States will be less in
1884 thanlt was in 1880. And the fools
who presume to be it's leaders will have
themselves to thank for it.
Is it policy ?

THE Irish World in it's last issue pub
fishes quite lengthy interview with the
younger brother of Joseph Brady, who
arrived in New York on the. steamer
Arizona on Monday of last'week. Young
Brady was in prison at the time of his
brothers murder by the British govern
ment, and, although occupying a cell
Immediately over Joseph's, was not
permitted to see him for four days prior
to his death. The younger Brady was
confined on a charge of having sent a
threatening letter to one of the jurymen
in his brothers case. The financial
agent, Baron ]. Cohen, swore the letter
was not in Brady's handwriting, but
Notwithstanding this, the government
told him that if he would plead "guilty"
he would be set at liberty. AS it Was
something about which he knew as little
as the government itself (and probably
a great deal lesS), he very naturally and
properly declined to so plead, and con-
sequently was kept imprisoned for some
time. He was finally liberated, but was
so constantly watched and dogged by
the miserable wretches in government
employ, that, acting upon the advice Of
his family and friends he slipped away
and came to America. Speaking of the
feeling in regard to his brorher's execu-
ton, Mr.. Brady said that neither himself
nor any of the members of the family
felt ashamed Of it, as they believed that
Joe died for his country, and was stran-
gled by the English government to satisfy
feeling Of revenge The belief is gen.
eral in Dublin that he was tried and
sentenced before he left Kilmainham.
In answer to question as to the true
condition Of affairs in Dublin, young
Brady stated that no Irishman could
live there and hold his head up. Any
man of pronounced views is constantly
watched, and leads a miserable life.
Eight thousand British marines walk the
streets day and night. These fellows are

THE editor of the Rocky Mountain
Pop-gun, of Greeley, devotes about one
fourth Of his patent-inside sheet to ma
ligning the anti-monopolists, and then
credits Belford with firing 'the first gun
in the anti-monopoly campaign" which
gun it conceds is brilliant and remarka-
ble." If the old hen that runs the
Howitzer would set on its touch-hole, he

The departments at Washington keep
up the monkeying programme with rela-
ton to the Indian depredators, and con-
tinue to act like lot of foolish children.
The hostile barbarians go on a raid
every few months, killing men, women
and children, and after one of their
butcheries a crowd of soldiers is sent out
to tramp around, half hundred miles
behind the red devils, and occupy the
time of the war and interior depart
ments for time, when everything in
this connection once more becomes quiet.
and another barrel of money is shipped
in to the Indian moguls. The country
is treated to performance Of this kind
two or three times each year, with no
abatement of the dangerous nuisance.
If a handful of starving workmen get
together and show disposition to assert
their rights in a land which claims to
protect its loyal citizens, the militia is
called out, and the whole country gets
up in arms to suppress the lawlessuess of
these poor, harmless beggars. Such is
the consistency of the thieves and muir
derers who run this great nation, and if
it isn't about time to put a stop to such
business, don't know when. it will be.
If little of the powder that is used to
make heroes out of the yardstick militia
men (as at Belleville) was applied to the
murderous red devils that seem to para
lyze the military moguls of our soldiery,
the west could be rid of this damnable
curse IN twenty-four hours.
The Labor enquirer., 1883-07-07

MONOPOLY of to-day is not only the
curse of the universe, but it is labor
saving machine. 1t ruins the happiness
and liberty of thousands to benefit the
greedy few. 1t is more dangerous than
dynamite. The idea of an enlightened
government of this Nineteenth century
giving and granting to united wealth
the right to rob the public domain by
hundreds Of miles square, to daily de-
stroy human lives by thousands, seems
more dangerous than that of those who
invented the use Of dynamite, powder or
the internal machine, for life is prefera-
bly, disposed of by the use of either of
the latter than by the former.

Shooting Down WOrKingmen.

In commenting on the shooting down
Of workingmen by the militia at Belle
vile, Illinois, the Cincinnati Times-Star
tells us that ''it is a sad necessity which
calls the militia out, but it was for Just
such sad emergencies that they were
organized" There is certain amount
Of candor about this statement that
commends it to every friend of labor.
1t is we'll to know what are the views of
capitalists, and when one of their organs
is kind enough to give US those views it
does a certain service. We have been
always of the opinion that between the
soldiers Of the standing armies Of
Europe and the citizen.soldiery of the
United States there was broad line Of
distinction. The regular armies of
Europe have been got together for the
express purpose Of overawlng the people
in the interest of class Our militia,
on the contrary, are supposed to have
been organized to protect all classes OF
citizens. OF late, years, however, the
practice has been to use the militia IN
the service of ne class, exactly as the
soldiers of the regular armies Of Europe
are used. The .alacrity with which the
governors of the different states respond
to the appeals of capitalists when the
latter through the payment of starvation
wages. compel the Wageworkers to strike
in self defense, proves thls'-Peorla

THE MORTGAGE.
BY WILL C. CARLTON.

We worked through spring and winter,
through summer and through fall,
But the mortgage worked the hardest and the
steadiest of all;
1t worked on nights and Sundays; it worked
each holiday;
1t settled down among us. and it never went
away.
Whatever we kept from it seemed Almost as
bad as theft;
1t watched us every minute, and it ruled us
right and left.
The rust and blight were with us sometimes

well as came:
The mortgage stayed forever, eating hearty
all the same.
1t nailed up every window, stood guard at
every door,
And happiness and sunshine made their
home with us no more.
Till with failing crops and sickness we got
stalled upon the grade,
And there came dark day on us, when the
interest Wasn't paid;
And there came short foreclosure, and the
farm was cheaply sold.

The Cincinnati Enquirer is strongly in
favor of the abolition of the convict
contract system, and appeals to the
workingmen Of Ohio to vote against the
republican nominee for governor, Judge
Foraker, because he refused to tackle
the question ir any of his electioneering
speeches. If Foraker's opponent and
the democratic party are in favor of the
abolition of the system, and the work
ingmen are willing to trust them, it
would be good plan to treat Foraker to
to little dish of their organized oppo-
sitiOn.

DENIS KEARNY, in an interview with a
Chicago reporter, said that since the
passage of the Chinese restriction bill,
wages of mechanics and farm laborers
had doubled, and that California had
never enjoyed so great prosperity as at
present. If this statement be true, and
it comedies with many reports which
reach us from the coast, it should forever
set at rest any misgivings as to the feasi-
biIity and wisdom of the law, and if the
present prosperity continues during the
ten years laid down by the bill, there
need be no fear that the Chinese will
ever obtain foothold on American soil.

IT is asserted that 1000 Chinese labor
ers died in British Columbia during

twelve months, it twould bea.favor. which

COLONEL WILLIAMSON, charge d'affairs
in Russia to-day delivered to the Dresi-
dent an undelivered letter from the en-
peror of Russia, expressing his appreci-
alton Of the action of this government
in accrediting Mr.. Hunt as a special
representative at Moscow on the occa-
sion of the imperial coronation, and in
ordering vessel of the navy to Russia
and directing the presence OF Admiral
Baldwin at the coronations The presl-
dent said that such acts were no less
than the spontaneous honors due the
friendly relations which have SO long
bound the two countries together, and
that the opportunity to testify our good
will on SO ausplcious an occasion had
been very gratifying to the president
and people. Associated Press.

Internal lie, and Arthur knew it when
he gave it utterance. He and his low
minded, fawning associates may mani
fest all the personal good will to the
murderous government of Russia and
its dominee1ng head, that they see fit,
but he knows that the people, the hon
est, liberty loving citizens of the govern
ment do not care to be SO pledged, and
feel like bowling their heads in shame at
the groveling, lickspittle conduct of the
president.
