TINUED OVATION.
The President left Louisville yesterday in
gayiy decorated special train for Chicago The
engine was studded with small flags and stream
crs, and bore on its headlight an enlarged por-
trait of the President. The three coaches and
dining-car were also decorated. The party on
board consisted OF President Arthur, Secretaries
Lincoln and FOlger, Postmaster General Gresham,
Senator's Bayari and Beck and representative OF
the press General Sheridan and party returned
to Chicago Wednesday night. Owing to the delay
In starting no stop was made after leaving New
Albany until salem was reached, and the train
passed through all intervening villages with q
flying rush. No place appeared so modest that 1t
failed to possess piece OF ordnance and &C
was the detonat,on OF the artillery. A stop of
ten minutes was made at Valparaiso, where q
crowd numbering fully 5000 persons had col

The TelegrapherA, Mass Meeting.
AN ADDRESS BIT GkAsDNasTsR PowpERLY At TIE
OPERA HoCsE LAST EVENING.
A mass meeting, under the auspices OF the
Brotherhood of Telegraphess, was he'd last eve
ming at Ford's Opera House The members OF the
brotherhood marcsxd to the place OF meeting In a
body. Representatives OF the different trade Or
CARNATIONS were aiso present, and seated on the
stage were Messrs. JIG. Mcnamara, o; the tin
ners' union; Jos F1nning, stonecutters; Wm F.
Brock. Typographical, and S. B. sheibley, master
workman OF the bretllerhood. who presided.
Inc 9o1ect OF themseting was TO listen to arrad-
grand master workman Of the Knights OF Labor,
and he was at once introduced to the audience.
AS he stepped to ths front he placed a newspaper
on the stand containing some newspaper cuttings,
to h1ch he referred in the course OF his remarks
After speaking Of Vanderbilt, Jay Gould and
others, as
THE DANGEROUS CLASSES"
instead OF the working men. he said that these
men were guilty OF murder. In proof OF this state
ment he read the newspaper account OF a collision
state where six men were killed. The accident
Was attributed to the telegraph operator. boy Of
seventeen years. who had gone to sleep from
that II the telegraph company had not compelled
TINS BOY to do the work OF two. and perhaps three
men, the accident would not have happened.
EIGHT HOURS DAr's LABOR.
He then proceeded to give the reasons why the
should be ixed at eight per day. One reason was
that where there were four men now at work ten
hours day, ana one man idle on the outside, II
two hours was taken from each mans day, that
would make days work for the Idle man, and
where f0sr were employed, i've would be at work.
This reduction in hours OF work would allow the
laoorlng man to indulge in mental recreation and
Mt himself for his duties rs citizen OF this great
repuDur. Another effect would be to bring the
production down to the consumption. AT present
there was too much produced and q more equal
ratio should be maintained.
THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
In giving an account OF the origin and pur-
poses OF the Knights OF Labor he paid a warm
tribute to the founder, Uriah s. Stephens, who as
an original member Of the Garment Makers asso-
citation, evolved the idea OF the order and pre-
pared It's f1rst ritual Its branches were now in
every state OF the Union, in Canada and in Europe,
and the demands now made by the laboring men
would nave been considered revolutionary ten
years ago.
Before closing his remarks Mr.. Powderly read a
dispatch. which stated that Gen. Eckert the gene
! raj manager OF the Western Union, had been re-
guessed TO resign. This WIS received with great
j applause, which continued for some minutes.
After urging that the public give to the telegraph
ers not only sympathy but financial aid, the meet
ing adjourned.

COUNTY DIVISION.
Editor PloNEER-ExrREss:

Editor PloNEER-ExpREss:
Permit me few words in reference to
county division. And first let me ask
the promoters of division what are the
advantages of dividing and who are to be
benefited thereby? Whatever advan-.
tages there might be to the settlers with
in the limits of the proposed new county
from separate county organization, they
are certainly overbalanced bv the disad-
vantages, The country is too new,
society is unsettled, the different COM
munites are in a measure strangers to
each other. No settler has anything but
squatter's right to his land. Improve
lnents are small and the taxes necessary
to support a county organization would
be heavy burden, resting like night
mare on struggling people in the be-
ginning of their pioneer life.
"Justice," in your last issue, asks who
petitioned for division. have never
heard any such petition, and I think
itwould have been much better if the
money expended in this election had
been expended in some other way-in
improving the roads, for instance. Is it
true that certain parties are working
hard to carry this scheme with 4 view to
controlling tho county scat? Some say
they have already caught glimpse of
good sized African just behind the wood
pile.
But let the people look at this matter
OH its merits, and be governed more par
ticularly by consideration of the hes.
interests of all concerned.
FAIR PLAY.
