Labor Bill. NJ. Powderly said. ~ see in
the reported proceedings of Congress that
days of valuable time are being devoted to
the discussion of questions of no consequence
whatever to the general interests of the
natyes-the importation under contract of
men and women who come only to degrade
American labor, is described as a link in tie
chain of the new slavery that can be severed
by the decisive action 81 the United States

A member of the committee of Headquar-
ters District Assembly, No, Sc, Knights of
Labor at Washington, D. c., On January II,
forwarded to SENATOR CoNGER, the fol-

were forty Huns and Italians at work then.
The room where they lived was 12

ing and sleeping therein. y If they
are paid before payday they arc charged 10
per cent.
SENATOR THos +. BAYARD listened to all
this, but it stirred no feelings of indigna-
tion in his unpatriotic breast Instead of
flying to the relief of his fellow-citizens, who
in hundreds of thousands are patiently bow
ing their starved forms in obedience to this
tyraunical legislation, looking day after day
for legislative relief, hoaing against hope
Mr.. BAYARD, blind, hesitating, impractical
and obstructive, arises in the Senate and
speaks--upop wliat--not the immediate lie
cessity of relief; but, Bayard-like, upon a
1 matter Of inc nsequential detail
IL is high time indeed that his fellow.
citizens of Delaware questioned him upon
the meaning of his course on the Senate
floor. The true deserts of such statesman
would but receive their need, did our citi.
zens stand up en- maSse, and like Cromwell,
two centuries ago in the English Parlia-
ment, cry out, ''Take away this fools
bauble ~

Again Hesitating.

Mr.. BAYARD, It is said, hesitates to accept
the honor of the Portfolio of State. His
friends explain his hesitation in asserting
that the acceptation Of a position of such
prominence demands thought and consid-
Grafton. Perhaps SO, but at the same time
the honor is increased tenfold in its lustre
and brllliancy in rejecting what great
State Delaware must be, one of whose citi-
zens can say in reply to an invitation from
the President to accept the Secretarysbip of
State, 'T'll think over it, The true in
wardness of this hesitation might be ex-
plaiDed by the uncertainties which cabinet
portfolio would inject into the Presidential
contest of 18Ss-1sss is the coveted goal and
every political move of Senator Bayard will
be made with especial reference to its bear
ings on that date.

The Liberty Bell.

The Liberty Bell' which left Philadel-
phia with such ecldt has been side-tracked
at the New ollcaus Cotton Exposition, and
as the Exposition is virtually bankrupted,
the historic bell will naturally tiLd its way
into some junk shop.
Sympathy with lottery schemes and extor,
tionate charges On the pat of the New Or
leans natives have dampenUd the enthusiasm
of those who at one time promised to makt
the Exposition u grand success.

At the Capitol.

MEssRs. BAYARDy SALISBURY and LORE,
whom the citizens of the State of Delaware
have sent to Washington to represent their
interests, occupied
The Hon. CHAs. B. LORE is busily engaged
in securing the $3.50, 900 appropriation for a
Federal Building in this city, in regard to
which, it is rcpoi ted, that he is on the TIRES
hold of success, thus bringing within the
range of probability the distribution of a
large sum of money among our sorely pressed
citizens, both workingmen and storekeepers,
not to speak Of the advantage the cree
ton of such a structure would be in beauti-
flying the city. Mr. LORE is also energetic
in his suggestions upon the subject of re-
coupling our citizens upon their trade dollar
risks.
In the Senate, upon the Labor Bill, the
Hon. ELI SALISBURY has plunged in medids
res his amendment, his arguments pro and
con evidencing a lively interest in national
affairs
On Friday, the 10Th inst, when the
amendments upon the Labor Bill came up
before the Senate, while the most important
tentative arguments upon this matter so
direct in all its bearings upon every work
ingman, tradesman, machinist and store
keeper in the country, were being brought
up, what had the Hon. THos. T. BAYARD to
say upon the question-nothing He was
absent Undoubtedly this Labor Bill is the
enactment of weightiest Importance brought
before Congress this session. Our senior
Senator had some other more important
business on hand than its consideration.
After condemniug this very salutaly bill at
its inception MIR. BAYARo signalizes him
self in his usual manner by negation, abstrac-
tion or absence.
1t appears that there is nothing tangible
to be obtained from MIR. BAYARD, naught
but theories, and these are served up, what
ever their inherent merits may be, with the
most marked effect of inopportuneness aud
gaucherie. Mr.. BAYARD attains nothing, he
is both impracticabie and impractical. What
measure, great OF small, has he Initiated in all
his long career, what numerous measures
of practical value to the citizen has he not
impeded by useless theory, direct opposition
OF evasiye diction. He is continually in the
position of one who is waiting to see which
way the cat will jump! He fails in aggres
siyeness, independence and above all tht
ability of Initiation OF inception of any meas
ure Of popular good. He is, however, pro
-isae-an the exesuliaation Of eyasiyeness
hesitancy, postp1nement, reconsideration
lack Of originality, distractions, and in hi
general legislative personality reminds thu
on-looker Of that "6Hpedimentd" referred t
by Julius Caesar, in his De Bello Calico o
women, children, camp suffers, &C., tina
clog the march of an army and its vigorou
prosecution of aggressive action or pre-
gress.

Political Heirs Not Popular.
Kant News.

Kent News,
Assuming that Senator Bayard will soon
be transferred to the Cleveland Cabinet, the
contest for the succession to the Senatorial
toga has already begun in Delaware in a
smothered sort of way, and it promises to
be a complicated aud bitter fight. Attorney
General George Gray is uudersto ID to be the
heir-apparent to Baynrd 50 far as Bayard
can make him SO, but ''heirs apparent" tc
political dynastics invite the field to rur
against them, and it is probable that thu
friends of Congressman Charles B. Lore ant
/ ex-Congressman Martin will unite to demol
ish Gray.

THE most remarkable exhibition of polit-
ical "flopping" of this presidential cam
paign is that exhibited by Emory A. Storrs

'The West wanted Blaine because the
people believed that lie would give them a

Grover Cleveland typifes that true Ameri-

$500, 900 More squandercd.

The House of Representatives at Wash
ington, last Tuesday, voted another appro-
priation TO the amount of 100000 to tenn
porarily bolster up the waning forces of the
almost morlbund Centennial Cotton Expo
sition. II will be remcmber.d d that the
National Congress last winter appropriated
81, 900, 900 as loan to the Exposition, and
as the amendment offered by Delaware's
representative, the Hon. CnAs. 3. LORE, to
demand warranty of the State of Louisiana
for its return to the National Treasury was
defeated the 81, 600, 900 was virtually dona-
ton and it savOred of unhealthy fnanciering
to give an additional 100000, to hope.
lessly wrecked enterprise, The Democratic
hope is 'solid'' South, and the South must
be kept solid even at the risk of the deple
tion of the National Treasury. 1t will nov
be in order for every State south of Masor

scheme between this and 1888.

Yesterday Mr. Ingalls, and Mr.. Sherman
made some excellent speeches in behalf Of
the bill to put stop TO the importation of

bill. 1t is proposed in this act to protect
labor as well as captal-only that and
nothing more-and it is difficult to see how
any guod Democrats can conscientiously
oppose it.

Senator Bayard is reported as saying tha.
he would not sit in cabinet containing

a cabinet containing Manning, then the

The Third Street Bridg e.

There is no difference of opinion upon the
new bridge question. It is, however,
matter of vital Importance TO the business
demands of Wilmington that the new
structure be placed at the foot of Fourth
street.
The reasons are obvious. Fourth street
is one of the main traffic and business ave-
nues of our city. Mercantile interests are
centreing along it and steadily gathering in
the direction of its axial line to the Della
ware River front. This is an indisputable
fact which has been already recognized by
tie authorities whJ have expended st1, 100
in road building from the Delaware ter
minus of Fourth street extension to the pro-
posed Brandywine bridge. All this is in
direct line to connect with the foot of
Fourth street in the city proper. Addition
ally, Fourth street is a roomy capacious
street, wisely and judiciously laid cut. 1t
is, in prospect of the shipbuilding interests
of the Delaware, which are most probably
the destined chief business of Wilmington in
future years, the main traffic and wholesale
business street of the city. Its locality, as
the artery of traffic distribution nearest to
railway and shipping interests, plainly indi-
Gates that fact. Its roomy width is OF in
calculable value to-day in relieving the
pressure upon the narrow factory and mill
crowded streets below it,
It is in a direct line to the best Delaware
frontage. On the contrary, Third street,
narrow, restricted avenue; usually crowded
with the heavy trucks and wagons of manu-
| facturers and large uusiness nfnis, MANY
passage along it's street both tedious and
hazardous. Also crossing from Fourth
street, by any of the connecting avenues,
even at the present moment is disagreeable
and risky. Railroad avenue has steam
track running its whole length between
Fourth and Third streets. Then again,
Church street is continually obstructed, as
well as Railroad avenue by the almost con-
tinuous presence of railroad trucks and cars
daily impeding any expeditions travel. The
whole block is so much railroad property,
thus almost necessitating, or at any rate, un-
doubtedly promising the eternal presence OF
these impediments.
The Levy Court cannot afford to condonc
the prospect of further increasing the citi-
zens' liability to accident of loss of life or
limb. It is also directly hazardous for car
riages. Were not these patent facts, this
mere business outlook would condemn the
theory of making detour from Fourtf
street along Railroad avenue, over Thire
street bridge and then returning back again
to make connections with Fourth street en-
, tension a. the proposed Brandywine bridge
A If Fourth street bridge is not built now, i
: will be traffic necessity in very fev
: years! A wise outlook then indicates it
erection there at the present moment il
A order to save the comparatively unneeessar
additional construction of another bridge a
large outlay, prospect the people OF WI
, mington would not hail with any great CON
mendation at these moments Of trade an
. monetary depression.
