We publish communication in this
issue relative to contemplated effort to
remove the Mary Sharp College from
"ihchester-not the building, for that
Is huge pile Of brick and there it will
stand Il perpetual reminder of the folly
OF which all would be guilty who favor
the establishment Of this institution any
where else. AS to the insidious foes,
or pscudo'fricnds alluded to by our COR
respondent, we must assert that we are
unaware Of the existence of such in our
community. But, he may be correct
We do not mingle very much, and our
ear is oltcncr RECALLED with the songs of
birds in the early morning and the
sweet voices of our children mt home,
than annoyed with tattlc and report.
Believing he is correct, we must confess
our infdelity as to any serious move in
this direction, despite the extracts else
where from the Nashville American.
The Mary Sharp College has been doing
good here for more than thirty years.
Mrs. Sharp, who passed away into eter.
nifty many years ago, gave large
amount for the endowment of this Col.
lege, which was named in honor of her
gift. She meant for it to be located and
established here in Winchester. The
Trustees cannot afford to turn deaf
ear to this obligation resting upon them
And the Mary Sharp College has done
too much good work for her fair name
to become betouled by low.brcd calum-
ny. Besides, Nashville, nor any other
city-in fact, no place on caribbean be
superior to this locality in the way of
health. People die here as they do ev-
erywhere in the world since God decreed
that we should return to dust. Perhaps
we have had more sickness here the
past twelve months than we usually
have in the same or thrice the same
time. But this is true as to the whole
Of the country called the United States.
There is not the shadow Of reason
for removing Mary Sharp College, any
more than for the removal of the Normal.
Both schools deserve the liberal patro-
mage they receive, and both should move
on, like the stars, each in its sphere,
one not impinging the other. And we
pray for the prosperity Of both, just as
Il good citizen, as we have ever tried to
be, should pray.
Besides our schools, we earnestly hope
that capitalists may come in and estab-
lish manufactures, and upon this point
We shall have something to say in fu
ture number of the Home journal.
Mr.. Dick Farris is, perhaps, as hon
est and clever rs any man in the county
Of Franklin. He lives on his own farm
some miles from town. For To- these
many years he has come regularly to
town every Saturday in his spring wag-
on to sell butter, chickens, eggs, vine
gar, &c, and to get his Home journal.
The market price" is always what he
asks, and he gives good stuff and full
measure. We always looked for him
on Saturday us certainly as We did for
the sun TO rise. But of late he las
"comc in" ON other days than Saturday,
and so many have wanted to know why.
this was that we have Intercepted him
ourself, and he tells us that he has OBJ
tanned the privilege to come whenever
he plcascs. We urge that we all let
him alone about the matter. Let him
come when he may and he is welcome.

TIE LABOR COMMITTEE.
The Secretary or the Trades Union Fede
ntIon Delivers an Address.


NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The senate subcom-
mittcc OIL labor and education continued its
session to-day. Frank r. Foster, secretary
of tho Trades Union Federation, addressed
the committee at some length, and held that
the workingmen had just as much right to
organize and fix the value or price of their
labor as the Standard Oil company, grain or
other merchants, had to set the price of oil or
other commodities. He thought that the
eight hour system would work great benefit
for tho laboring classes.
Hyman Phillips of Cincinnati, delegate
to the Trades Federation union, and cigar
maker, strongly denounced the custom Of
employing children in the manufacture of
cigars, and said that in Cincinnati 10 per
cent. of tho children ranging in ages from 8
10 II years and upward were engaged in this
business. If congress could pass law to
prevent this it would be doing u great bene-
fl to the country at large.
William McClelland, of the Amalgamated
Society of Engineers, explained the main
features of that organization and the distribu-
tiou Of its various funds to sick members,
those not at work, and widows and orphans.
Tho headquarters of the English organiza-
tion are in London and those of the United
States in this city. There are upward of
$4,000 members in the organization and a
capital of TSl1 900 in the treasury. They not
only contribute to the support of their own
body but also to that of other unions while
on strike
In answer to Senator Blair, witness said
that their whole fund hero could be made
available to sustain strike in one or more
districts elsewhere. If there were no trade:
union there would be no Strikes. as the indi-
vidual applicant for labor would have to take
what he could get. The relationship exist
ing between employer and cmploye is that
the former wants to get all the work for the
lowest possible pay while the latter wants the
highest pay ho can get. There is genera
feeling of dissatisfaction among the working
men OF this country at tho insufiiciency o.
their wages for the amount Of work done.
