Sham Republican Sympathy for
WOrkingmen.

The Republicans are protesting great
love just now for workingmen. Let us
examine into the record of these same
Blaine men on the Eight-Hour law.
In 1868 Congress passed a law making
eight hours days work for all Gov
ernment employees. In all the depart
ments the clerks and other well-paid
officials have never been asked to work
even the eight hours required by that
statute. But not until the exigencies of
the present Presidential campaign arose
did all the poor laborers getthe benefit
of that eight-hour law. The Republi-
can department heads have in nearly
all instances, until this year, evaded the
act employing help for ten hours, and
calling that days work, instead of the
eight hours fixed by statute.
Last Spring bill was introduced to
pay the Government employees for the
two hours that they have been required
to work, in disregard oflaw for so many
years. The proposition was an emf
nently fair one. 1t was admitted that
eight hours constituted a legal days
work, and that the men were obliged to
work more or lose their places. These
men had thus worked overtime and
were entitled to pay.
But Mr.. Hiscock of New York,
blatant Blaine Republican, opposed the
bill. He called it demagogical propo-
sition, and said that it proposed to ele-
vate labor in the Government employ
by paying it twenty-five per cent, or
upward more than it was worth. The
bill did not pass, because of the time
occupied in debating it. But had the
Republican officials obeyed the law, and
not disseminated against the laboring-
man, such bill would not have been
necessary,

that the best remedy for making the

pimples and other skin diseases, for re-

AN IRISH PROTEST.
A Vigorous Letter From Representa-
tive Irish Citizens of Defiance.

DEFIANCE. OHIO, August 20, 1884.
Editor Defiance Daily Democrat:
We, the undersigned, citizens of De-
fiance of Irish extraction, were made
the recipients of free copy Of the Irish
POrId-edited by one Patrick Ford, of
New York-no doubt with view to in
fiuence our votes at the coming election
i'm November. The papers were Dost-
marked Columbus, and the paper itself
dated July 26, 1884. This post-mark,
columbus" has deceived none of us,
and we are well aware that the papers
were mailed here by some Republican
busy-bOdies who must have already re-
ceived some of ''my dear HubbelPs
campaign fund" to justify such an out
lay. That the issue of July 26th should
have been selected, regular readers of the
Irish World do not wonder at, since 1t
contains such an avalanche of vitupera-
tion against the Democratic nominee
for President as to almost take ones
breath. And all this from the man
who but two short years ago uttered
these remarkable words i'm his now-in
our Infamous sheet:
"This man Blaine has no conception
ofwhat is due to the honor of the United
States, and should never again be placed
in position were he can disgrace our
Government
And now, Mr.. Editor, that this man
Ford has chance to prevent, or at least
help prevent, placing Blaine in a posi-
ton to disgrace our Government, what
do we see? For the consideration of so
and so many shekels, cash down in
hand, this man Ford has the audacity
to speak for the Irish voters throughout
the land, and is found in the very camp
of the men whom he so ably denounced
SO short time ago loudly vociferating
that he carries the Irish vote in his
pocket.
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, we would
say, and we believe we thereby voice
the sentiment of majority of the Irish
voters of the land, that Patrick Ford,
the reputed Irish patriot, the custodian
of so many funds too numerous to re-
cite, is the last man who can influence
Irish votes, as he has long been sus-
pected of double dealing. And we pro-
test against the previling opinion of
our fellow-citizens that we as class
can be bought or sold for political pur-
poses like so many cattle, and we would
advise the Republicans to send their
spare copies of the Irish World to the
Fiji Islands, as those sent to uswill find
their way to the clubhouse and the gut
ter, as we are all for Cleveland, Hen
bricks and reform, first, last and all the
time. Mr.. Ford's paper will not con-

On motion Watonwan county was invited
to Join the association, and Col. Flanders re-
spending, said he would be one of ten men
to raise 81 ZOO of funds to provide for carry
ing out the desires of the association, which
liberal sentiment was loudly applauded.
At this juncture the Window brass band,
which had come down to lend their aid in
making the meeting a success, discoursed
sweet music.
Mr.. Wilkinson next made some remarks
concerning the best way to advertise. and
favored the publica ton of a map as ad-
vised by the scheme of Col. Flanders, only
STIMULATING that no one place should be given
too much prominence.
Col. O'Leary moved to consider the vote
taken two weeEsago to pr int a paper which
was seconded by Rev. Mr.. Gum in a few
we'll chosen remarks, in which he advocated
the publication of a map to represent the
country just as it is. Carried.
Col. O'Leary then offered the following
resolution:
RESOLVED, That the plan of advertising sug-
gested by Mr.. Flanders, be adopted. That
a map of the seven counties of southwestern
Minnesota be printed, to be about the size of
a six column folio newspaper. That all the
rivers, streams and lakes be shown on the
map. That all railroads now in operation,
aud that all surveyed railroads be shown
thereon. That all towns and villages and
postoffices be shown thereon. That the back
of said map be devoted to description of
southwestern Minnesota, with the name of
a correspondent in each town and postoffice
given.
After some considerable discussion, which
was participated in by a large number of
delegates, the resolution was adopted.

Of malicious humor-she delighted in betray-
ing Spencer and Vota into theological dis
putes in her drawing room. She was firm
friend Of Schutler, and to his genius and her
management Berlin owes some of its finest
monuments and palaces. Besser, Canitz
and other so called poets foundin theElectress
patient istner as they recited their odes and
epics. But with all her merits and accom-
plishments Sophia Charlotte wanted one quail
ity to which Frederick attached profound
importance, so that, although he respected
and even feared, he hardly admired her. She
| had no sympathy with the Electors love for
spectacular effect If a magnificent pageant
was organized at the palace the Electress
would absent herself entirely, or COM
| NIT some solecism and throw everything into
| confusion, or even break up the whole cere-
mony by going into open revolt at some crit
ical moment. During the coronation services
at Konigsberg, which Frederick had exerted
all his ingenuity to make solemn and impos-
ing, the EIectress laughed behind her hus-
bands great wig, and even took pinch of
snuff at the very point where Frederick ex-
pected her to look most grave and decorus.
On her deathbed she could not suppress her
grim humor.

THE ALASKA LEASE.
Representatives Henley and Broadhead
made arguments to-day before the ways and
means committee on the resolution offered
in the house by the former providing for the
investigation Of the lease to the Alaska Com

thoriZing the lease was unconstitutional and
void; that 1t was awarded through fayoritism
or fraud and given to the lowest bidder in
stead of the highest, and the company habit
ually violated the terms of the lease. Broad
head contended that the lease was void under
