Responsible Government.
Editor Labor Enquirer.

Editor Labor Enquirer.
CHICAGO, June l6.-Professor Van
Buren, Denslow, of Chicago, is high up
in law and political economy. He has
written a pamphlet of eighty pages on
Responsible Government, and the title
page reveals the fact that that he is slate
professor of law in the Union college
of law, and of political economy in the
University of Chicago"
Surely he is worthy of notice. Ills
pamphlet teaches that society is the re-
suit of conflict between two forces
Communism and heartless Individual
ism. Neither of these is shown to be
right or wrong in principle, but it is
necessary that each exist and fight the
other or there would be no society. The
main object of the book, however, is to
prove that Responsible Government can
only be obtained by giving more repre-
sentative power to capital, and also to
intelligence-provided it is aristocratic
intelligence.
His own words can best reveal his
principles, and if the following quota
tons seem too strong it is because the
wary arguments which lead TO them are
wanting, and not that their meaning is
changed in any way by their separation
from the context. He denies equality.
in political rights, and hls reasoning on
this head is simply gorgeous. He says:
THE utterance, all men are created
equal is half truth, the other half of
which is, all men are created unequal ="
Here are some of his profound
thoughts that need no comment:
"Whatever would make men equal
would destroy the race by stopping com
merce. Capital would hire nobody,
wealth would cease to have value if
every laborer possessed it,.
ITO share, to equalize property is to
abolish it."
''The least costly thing connected with
society is its aristocracy, for nearly every
expenditure made by a capitalist is a
permanent investment"
''The necessity of recognizing aristoc-
racy in all societies increases in proper
ton to the inequalities of condition and
development which mark the social life"
"All luxury is involuntary but highly
economical charity" -. az
Republics have the same right, under
the constitution of the United States, to
maintain inequality in the rights of citi-t
zens as to MAINTAIN equality
in SO far as the power of the federal
arms has been brought to bear to convert
the aristocratic republics of the south
into democratic republics, it has not sue.

READ the article by "Honorius," on
the fourth page. 1t is time that the
workingmen were deciding upon what
to do. They viii either have to go into
the militia companies themselves and
gain control of them, or call out their
thoughtless fellows who are already in,
and take immediate steps towards arm
ing and training the labor organizations.
If the capitalists are determined to pre-
cipitate crisis by goading the .plundered
producers beyond human endurance, it
is our duty to prepare to defend our
selves. Far be it from this paper to
advocate violence, but it will not with
hold a so much needed warning, though
it be charged with sedition and melting

assuances there are that he will be de
feated if placed in nomination. II is adj
mited By the democrats that they viii
have to carry the state of New York to
elect the president Cleveland cannot
carry New York, because the organized
labor of that state stands pledged to vote
against him at any time he pops his head
up for Office. Through the Influence Of
the organized labor of the city of New
York, indorsed by the organizations Of
the entire state, the eture passed a
bill reducing the fare oyef the elevated
raiiroad to cents, 70 that working peo-
pie could afford to make use of that
means of transportation to and from
their work. Cleveland, as governor, at
the dictate of handful of railroad and
banking magnates stockholders in the
elevated road. and in opposition to the
known interests and wishes of several
hundred thousand working people, their
friends, and = magnificent majority Of
the state legislature, vetoed the bill.
Can Cleveland with this record expect to
poll the vote of the workingmen of New
York-or any other state, for that mat
ter; and can the democratic party hope
to win the confidence Of the producing
classes by placing ~ IN head of its
ticket this man, who has shown by
his conduct that his official prerogatives
are at the disposal of the corporationist0
and money sharks and that so far az
he is concerned the public and the pub
lies wishes may be damned Well, let
the democrats do as they please; but if
they please to nominate Cleveland and
ignore the requests of the workingmen
in behalf of Butler, they will soon realize
their error, but too late to rectify it.

democracy can win, and the democrats

y The Cleveland Messenger is one of

From all parts the farmers arrived to
attend the exhibition" At 10 O'Clock
the sheriff mounted the auction block,
which had been already used for the
same purpose before the war. Amid the
jeers and laughter of the crowd, many
of whom were drunk, the auctioneer
announced that the goods" for sale
had been divided into two classes, in
valid and able bodied. ..... 4
The first one put under the hammer
was 20 year old man. The auctioneer
turned him around several times ex-
claiming: Here gentlemen, is fine
