An Ohio noyoott Reaches This city.

Ithas been learned from member OF the
Federation Of Trades and Labor that the
big fight against organized labor, which has
waged for the past six months In Akron,
Ohio, by big wealthy firm OF millers of
that city, has In measure been transferred
TO this city. Several hundred sacks Of their
flour were shipped TO some of our wholesale
grocers and flour merchants. 1t is prob
able that the merchants are not aware Of
the trouble existing between the firm and
laboring men, or care to mix up In 1t,
Neither are they anxious TO antagonize Or
ganized labor here by espousing the cause
OF the Ohio man. The Federation OF Labor
and the knights Of Labor both assert that
II this firm will submit TO arbitration the
difficulty can be settled at once.

NEGOTIATION comes from Washington that
ycryIi,tle intefrssis felt in the proposed new
extradition treaty with England, ltwould ap'
pear that there is very little interest felt ln
Washington now in anything-thSat Is, from
the standpoint of craftsmanship. But the
President is anxious to get away on his vaca-
tion.-NoC York UORd.
We don't suppose there has been any
time in forty years when genuine display
Of craftsmanship in Washington-if 1t had
anybody to Introduce 1t by name-would
excite such deep interest as just now.
There will be occasion soon, II Democratic
ascenlancy is to continue, to have some OF
the craftsmanship of the Republican era set
UP in the national museum.

unite in carrying out that object. What the
country needs is the retirement Of the Dem
ocratic mob from power until II gets an
outfit Of principles and sense enough to
stick to them. There are few good men Of
any party who, looking at the Democratic
House Of the forty ninth Congress, are not
glad in their hearts that the Senate Is Re-
publican. II our Democratic contemporary
I'm Memphis will call on the venerable Demo-
cratic statesman at Grnystone for his opinion,
that sage and philosopher will tell him that
a Democratic Senate like this Democratic
House would be piling Pelon Of afilictlon

Cabinet Officer to 60.
Attorney General Garland is the first one
Of the Cabinet to leave the city for his sum
mer vacation. He left Washington last
night for his farm on Hominy Hill, near
Little Rock, Ark, where he will remain
several weeks. He did not expect to leave
until after the adjournment Of Congress,
but the condition Of his health, which has
not been good since his bronchial attack Of
last winter, caused him to hasten his de-
parture. He had an interview with the
President this morning, and closed up all
the affairs Of the Department Of Justice re-
quiring immediate attention. The Prosi
dent advised him to take good, long va
cation, remarking that he proposed to take
one himself as soon as he could get away,
and expressed the hope that q change OF
climate and complete rest would restore
him to health. At the suggestion of the
Attorney General, the President has desig'
mated Assistant Attorney General W. A.
Maury to act as Attorney General until
Tuesday next, when Mr.. jerks will assume
the duties Of solicitor general, and will re-
lieve Mr.. Maury Of his duties as acting at
torney general.
