"a. SIX hundred union sbricklayers had a
session last night and after long dis
cussion it was decided that the men
could go to work wherever they chose
at 81, provided they refused to work
under non-union foremen. This practi-
cally ends the strike. and Is regarded as
collapse of the union. Associated
Press, Chicago, June 6. t5 t.#f[, T. y
Don't look to US much like collapse
from the provisos laid down by the
union. The probability is tine whole
thing is lie. Singular the reporters
could send a small bit of news which
could be made to appear adverse to the
workingmen, while they knew absolutely
nothing a 4out the great labor demon
station at Cincinnati on Sunday and

SPEAKING adversely of the coming
Chicago conference, the Howitzer says:
"Division of theA friends of any cause
means defeat" 4hats as true as gospel,
and is just why we think the Howitzer
and all such are displaying questionable
friendship for reform. Why not all
stand together in the present movement?
Forget old spites, jealousies and disap-
pointments, old gentleman, and stand
up with us this time. You've grown old
trying to revolutionize the country by
your methods; now be good natured and
give the young folks show.

much annoyed / kby the pounding of

NOT OUT OF THE WOODS.

Telegrams from Russia bear the re-
freshing intelligence that the car is hav-
ing jolly good time, not troubled with
a single fear of the nihilists. Every
days batch of messages tells of trip
made by the ruler Of all the Russias"
to some prominent place, without a
guard. We are told by the associated
press Information garbler) that there is
no fear4of nihilism and that the sun OF
peace and contentment is shining over
the entire land
We have no desire to deprive the
friends of the czar of any consolation
they may be able to squeeze out of the
distorted reports served up to them, but
with friendly desire to let them down
easy when the final crash comes, we will
simply state that the reported security is
trumped up and that the nihilists are
after Alexander's scalp just as much now
as ever. t. .. ...
AS we have before stated the leaders
of the revolutionary party are men of
brains, education and experience and
they are not to be soft-soaped by prom
ises, reports of security or isolated cases
of informers. A few days since several
arrests were made and important papers
unearthed at the town of Smolensk.
The documents contained information
that the nihilists had decided to post
pone the assassination until after the re-
turn of the czar to st. Petersburg. The
fact is established that prominent Off
GERS in the army, navy and other public
institutions are not only associated with
the revolutionists, but are active in the
work
So, taking the whole matter together,
Alex is in just about as hot place as
one can readily imagine, and when the
fiat goes out from headquarters to send
him to the land where nihilists cease
from troubling and the crowned heads
are at rest, whiz! bang! Up he goes.
And, by the eternal, it's right.

CHICAGO, June 3.-A strike among the
conductors and engineers of the cable
street railway. The superintendent of
the company says the places will be
partially filed with experienced men.
The directors held a meeting, and de-

MILWAUKEE, June 3.-Superintendent
Parker, of the North Chicago Rolling

at Bay View that the company would
sign the scale if the demand for BIZ

the men refused the offer, and the situa-
ton looks more gloomy than on the day
of the lockout, as it was then felt a
compromise could be made.

superintendent of the cable railroad

and after talk with them matters were
adjusted and work resumed.

talk about quality of goods and prices,
but we know there's no question about
their truth, if the business done by the

long ago in these columns had it not
been for the fact that we have found the

called that they could not talk to US.

THE MILITIA,

state militia nave once more lulmOT-
talized themselves and added new glory
to the life of soldier brave and bold.
A gang of this stripe of our country's
brave defenders distinguished them
selves at ,Belleville, Illinois, last week,
by firing upon a crowd Of unarmed men
and helpless women, killing one man
and wounding dozen others.
What was the occasion of this heroic
conduct on the part of the ''yardstick
military" and the murder of helpless,
harmless man?
The miners of that locality were un
able to live respectfully and maintain
their families by working for the star
vation wages which the owners of the
mines were willing to pay. The men
asked living wages and were refused.
They struck, refused to longer drag out
their lives for the miserly stipend the
men made rich by their toll were dis
posed to give. Other men came to take
their places. We care not whether these
newcomers were forced through hunger,
or willing through lack of principle to
come between the hungry miners and
their opportunity to wrest from the
hands of cold -blooded capitalists their
rights be the motive what it could, the
injury was the same. After few earnest
appeals and weakened protests the
miners abandoned the field and gave up
in despair Not 50 the women-the
wives and daughters. These brave and
devoted creatures, with the tenacity to
stand out for the right which character
ICES the sex, were not willing to aban-
don so readily the cause. One hundred
of them marched to the mines and told
the strike-workers to cease operations,
and they needed the command or ap-
peal, which ever it was.
The sheriff, a man with no sense and
less manliness, became ter1or-stricken at
this new turn of affairs. Probably the
haggard faces Of the women suggested
the uncertainty Of life. He telegraphed
to the governor for help to suppress the
horrible women and girls. The militia
came On the first train, and hardly wait
ing until their feet touched the depot
platform, and without the slightest
provocation, fired into the crowd of de-
fenceless, peaceable laborers who had
congregated to witness the arrival of the
A'fower of Illinois" One man, William
Henderson, was killed, and the drunken
mob representing the super-proteCtiv
power of the state, finding the poor fel
lows were unarmed' rushed after them
as they flew and succeeded in "winging"
several others. =
Without going further into the details
of this affair, we desire to call atten
ton to the lessons to be learned frem it:
The greater part of those comprising
state militia are the most thoroughly
monopoly-ridden class in the country.
AS militiamen their services are never
required but to shoot down poor hard-
working men like themselves. The
principal difference Is that tne most
manly and liberty-loving portion of the
working class keep outof such cat's-paw
outfits. The true soldier never shoots
down helpless women and children.
One good six-shooter in the hands OF
miner at Belleville would have turned
the tide of that great battle, which has
made so many tape-measure warriors
Another thought in connection with
the affair is the significant fact that the
women took prominent part in it. The
The Labor enquirer., 1883-06-09

WONDER how the Labor World feels
over the miscarriage Of it's prophecy that
the Amalgamated association would lose
their strike? We suppose the poor fell
lows would liked to have followed the
advise of that recognized by capital'
sheet, but they couldn't do it, in justice
to their families.

THE associated press, with customary
consideration for the interests Of the
workingman, contained not word this
week concerning the great demonstra-
ton of organized workmen at Cincinnati
on Sunday and Monday. From slower
sources than the monopolized telegraph
wires we have learned that the process
sion on Sunday was one IF the largest
ever seen in that city, there being about
5000 men in line, and presented as fine
body of men as ever paraded the
streets of any city. At the picnic, which
occurred at Inwood park Immediately
after the parade and continued through
Sunday and Monday, there were fully
10000 men and women, "heWers of wood
and drawers Of water" and jolly good
time was had. If there had been any
disturbance at all the associated press
would have eagerly sent an exaggerated
account all over the country, so that all
will readily understand that the lower
order behaved just as we'll as if they had
been "real ladies and gentlemen" The
Cincinnati Enquirer gives an extensive
report of the whole affair, from which
we extract: 1T was a typical working
mans holiday. Differences with en-
ployers, scales of working rates, strikes,
all departments of trade were forgotten
amid the all-engrossing occupation Gf the
hour. 1t was a free and easy, good
humored collection. The girls were not
made of paper-mache, nor the boys of
glass, that will crumple and crack or
break with a little squeezing. There
were no dudes among the men nor afr
fected misses among the women. 1t was
'Howdy Ben and Hello SalIie,' fol-
lowed by grasp from brawny hand
that would bring tears to the eyes of my
lady in the parlor."
