wor,,,npmen,s Mass Meeting.

A mass meeting Of the National Peoples
party was held at Lincoln hall, on Wednes-
day evening, under the auspices of the Cen
tral Butler and West club, John B. Lennon,
chairman, and William Holland, secretary.
W.N. Bachelor, of Fort Collins, claimed
that Butler was the man whom the emer-
gency demanded to save the country from
ruin. =,
s Joe Murray, the great greenbacker and
labor reformer, of Larimer county, made the
principal speech of the evening. he took
occasion to bring to trial the two old parties,
and showed very plainly that both were ut
terly corrupt and ought to be condemned by
the people. Among other things Mr.. Muir
ray stated that the republicans had offered
him $1,000 down and $50 a day until the
fourth of November, if he would stump the
State for the republican ticket. On the
whole he succeeded in interesting and anus
ing his audience, and was listened to very
attentiyely throughout. He spoke for about
an hour and half, and at tthe close of his re-
marks the Rev. Mr.. De La Matyr was called
for, and arose simply to urge upon the mem
bers of his party the necessity of work.

HAMILTON, Ont, Sept. IS, IS84.-Sihce
last writing we have very little change
to make unless that the prospects for the
wage-workers are becoming more dismal
every day.
The bottom has fallen out of the sew
ing machine business in this city almost
entirely, there being nine in every ten
of the operatives walking the streets,
with no prospect Of bettering them
selves. The business in other parts of
the dominion is just as bad. Trade in
St. Catharines. says our special, was
never in more deplorable condition,
with no prospect of revival. Canadian
politics are also stagnant, as the govern
ment in power dare not promote one Of
their number, knowing that if a vacancy
occurs they will be defeated. Custom
tailors and shoe makers are doing, moth
ing Building is far from brisk, and
the extraordinary harvest seems to
have helped things very little. Taking
the dominion all in all, it is an excellent
place for working people to stay away
from.

Ben Butler is raising the mightiest qHeS-

American people-questions for to-day and
for tomorrow, which must be acted upon,
from which there is no escape, and by the
proper settlement of which alone, safety Is
to be found. '.a... n-.
Brushing aside the mere partisan issues
over which so much wind is wasted, he crap
Piles with the oYershadowing questions of
industry, finance, equality, freedom, fair
play and social rights. He attacks the enemy
hip and thigh, hauls him out to judgment,
and conyicts him of malfeasance before the
supreme tribunal of our country. Well does
the New York Sun say that there has been
nothing like it in our day." ="
"The present presidential campaign" /" says
our friend LEX" in to-day's paper, sis the
first one in which social questions have been
brought up for debate" And in what tell
ing fashion they are handled by Ben Butler
before the immense audiences which he has
addressed in this wonderful continental
campaign! t-t,.,.5.-... +. s
He is forcing the whole country to think
Of them and study them, and he has COM
PEELED even the Satanic press to gabble about
them. Within the past fortnight he has won
hearing from hundreds of thousands of
people, between Rhode Island and Mime
sofa farmers, wage-workers, men of all
classes and conditions, and we presume that,
before the campaign is ended, he will have
personally addressed over two millions of
voters, while three times as many will read
his speeches in the papers.
Never before had these ideas such hear,

PALLADIUM OF LABOR.
Washington, d. C.

[By Associated Labor Press.
A question has been raised as to the Pre-
sident's authority to appoint new Commits
sioner of Labor Statistics, and it is stated
that this is the reason for the delay in filling
the office. Mr.. Jarrett's commission was
withheld after mis- confirmation, and as the
tenure of Office act authorizes the president
to fill during the recess of the Senate only
such vacancies as may occur from death, res
ignation or inability to serve, it is held that
the president cannot legally fill the office, as
there is no vacancy which would come with
in the law.
The acting secretary of the treasury has
directed letter to the commissioners of i'm
migration, stating that the utmost discretion
should be exercised in excluding pauper
immigrants. A penniless passenger from
Europe, with plans and prospects for his sup
port, or with friends or employers ready to
receive him, should not be interfered with,
while person from foreign almshouse or
other charitable institution should not be ad-
mitted. Sag
President Arthur will return to Washing
ton this week The rumor that he was very
ill proved to be groundless, but the later
rumor, to the effect that he is working to get
into the United States senate, is probably
correct Whether he will get there or not is
quite another thing.

ment are now at work on the pyramidal

busy. Plenty of printers walking round, and

CINCINNATI Sept lS, 1884 There is
nothing to report df startling, naturein
anyof the trades in this vicinity, all be-
ing quiet and running smoothly, except
the moldins and cigar making trades.
The situation with the rnolders remains
about as it was when last report was
made. In the cigar making trade there
has been some excitement occasioned BY
the burning of the R. M. Bishop cigar
manufactory, which occurred last week.
This firm was one of the twelve that
locked out the Union cigar makers last
spring, the doors Of which have been
closed against them ever since. The day
following the fire one of the firm had
himself interviewed by press reporter,
and while he did not say that the union
men caused the fire, he intimated as
much by saying that the firm had asked
the mayor and chief of police for addi-
tional protection, which was not given,
and their factory lis now totally de-
stroyed by hre." This insinuation has
created considerable excitement, not
only among trade unionists but fair
minded people generally. A member of
the union made reply to this insinuation,
by card, intimating that probably the
firm knew more about the burning of
the factory than was known outside.
arbitration committee of the board
of trade, in addition to a report they
made two or three weeks ago, and a
synopsis of which was sent you, in re-
gard to the labor troubles of this city,
have presented to the board review of
the whole matter, which has been pub
.lished in the capitalistlc press, saying
in substance that capital is being wrongly
treated and the workman should submit
to disruption of their Organizations. 1t
is rated as the most narrow-minded docu-
ment that has been published here for
years. f. = r.
The photographic printers have taken
the preliminary steps toward the forma-
ton of union In that trade, and as
there are many persons engaged at the
business, the promoters are sanguine of
success. d.. =r.- z--.--
During the past week tie peoples
party, who favor General Butler and the
principles he>represents, have held four
outdoor meetings, and several hall
meetings, all of which. were well at
tended, the one on last Saturday night
blocking Fifth street at the corner of
Plum D. There will be an effort made to
have the general address the citizens
here during the campaign. At the meet
ing of the campaign committee on Sun
day last the desire to hear John Swinton
during the fall was expressed.
