this fine morning. Seeing very fattering adj
vertisement in your paper Of some elegant pre-
miums to be given away at random, it appears
to me that Tom Johnson gets fine organ,
John Mammen a fine sewing machine, Jim
Smith fine windmill, and Martin and Cox a
to be one-sided business, to leave out your
old subscribers and poke your fnestlpremiums
into such mems pockets. l, as one of your
oldest subscribers to the TRIBUNE, protest
against such injustice and claim right to have
share in the enterprise myself, as am citi-
zen OF the territory and have right amongst
those gentlemen. AS to Tom Johnson, he has
become too old. to need an organ; as to John
Mammen, he has no woman to use a sewing
machine; as to Jim Smith, and all his friends
know well he can get along without the help
OF windmill; as to Cox and Martin, they both
come from Missour-Cox can shoot rifle,
Martin is both fat and strong and can throw
rocks. As am getting old of eyesight,
claim the shot gun by right. Just look a little
out and pile those premiums in straight line
and we will all take a Whit,

The Knighs Disavow Riosins.

President Egan. OF the Irish Ma tional
League OF America. was interview ed at
Omaha regarding the statements in the
London papers which attributed the
anarchist riots in Chicago to the Irish ele.
ment. Mr.. Egan was very indignant at the
charge. He said:
Those English papers, in this instance, as
in every other where they refer to Irish
men, display the most arrogant ignorance
and barefaced lying. II there is one
feature OF the socialistic trouble more
noticeable than another or more
gratifying to every lover OF Ireland, it
is the fact that up. TO the present
not a single Irishman had been found on
the side of the red flag while we can point
with melancholy pride to the fact that
about three-fourths Of the gallant fellows
who fell in defense OF law and order were OF
our nationality. Some Irishmen may per-
haps have gone to extremes in defending
their homes and in battlingfo their nation
al right, and some of them will, no doubt,
do so again and in the near futurei il English
stupidity and English prejudice prevail to
thwart the efforts of Gladstone: but social
ism, as the term is understood by the fol-
lowers Of the red flag. never has found and
never will find any fOothold in Ireland or
among the Irish people. 1t has, however,
considerable strength in England.
General Master Workman Powderly has
written Ii long letter to the World CRITICS
ing the monthly financial ~circularof Henry
Clews and Co, in which the statement was
made that the Knights Of Labor were the
same as the anarchists. Mr.. Powderly is
rather severe On grain gamblers and dealers
in margins and declares emphatically:
The Knights OF Labor have no sympathy
whatever with the anarchists. Such men
as Herr Most and August Spies condemn
the Knights because they are too conserva-
tive, while Jay Gould and Henry Clews de-
nounce the order because it's members will
not submit quietly to every injustice or
imposition that may be practiced on
them,

Adolph Fischer, for the last five years Il
Compositor on the Arbeiter Leltung; Ter
hardt Liziens, IL reporter, and Mrs. Lizzie
Holmes, an editorial writer on the same
paper, were taken before Judge Rogers on
a writ OF habeas corpus. Liziens, the re-
porter, was discharged. In the case OF hrs:
Holmes, Attorney Grlnnell sighlheu
his willingness that she should be
allowed to depart under $500 bonds, and
expressed his hope that further investiga-
ton would prove her innocence OF

Holmes was released on $500 bail. tIsch-

asserted his clients innocence, and pleaded
against a remand, because he was Il mar

and so had the gallant policemen who
were laid low last Tuesday evening by TINS

Washington Special: The president
has sent messages tc the house return
ing a large number OF pension bills. 1t
created a decided sensation. 1t was known
that the president a giving these bills *
animation, with a view of a~scertaining
whether they were based upon evidence
sufficient TO warrant the relief granted. 1t
was discovered that coed grounds were as
signed for the disapproyal OF the two bills
vetoed, and thai the lecture of
the president upon the carelessness ex-
hibited by congress in passing upon
this class OF bills was iusti
fed by the facts set forth. The message
was generally approved by the right minded
men Of both sides OF the house, and cannot
fail to induce congress TO be more careful
in the future. The two bills vetoed were
evidently selected to emphasize the presi-
dents objections to the manifest careless
ness exhibited by congress in dealing with
pension bills, and the objections in both
cases are such that upon reconside-
ration the house will be forced to
sustain the vetoes. The house did
not need this admonition from the
executive to become convinced that sufici-
ent care is not shown in passing upon pen.
sion bills. Early in the present session Mr..
Springer introduced a bill to pension a man
who was voted a pension at the last SEES
sion OF congress, by the passage OF the iden-
tical bill presented by Mr. Springer. Not
understanding this fact, the pension com.
aiittee actually reported the bill ~favorably,
thus showing that the committee had given
the case no examination whatever.

to put myself In such a position We have,
through some unfortunate misunderstanding,
incurred the cnmity Of several trades unions.
While / can find no excuse for the uunanly at
tack made upon Us by some of these people at
a time when we stood f&ce TO face with
a most perpleXinG question, neither can l
see any good reason why there should be any
cause for a quarrel. We
MUST HAVE NO CLASHING
between the men or labor's army. II l am the
cause OF the trouble, l stand ready at a moment =
notice to make way for any one Of my rivals
whom the general assembly may select. Break
the power OF the Knights Of Labor, and
you hand labor, bound hand and
foot, over to its enemies. Years ago,
l extended an invitation to men of
all trades to become a part and parcel OF the
Knights OF Labor. To-day l stand ready to
make every honorable concession, to do any
thing in honor 10 bring about q better feeling
between trades unions and the knights of Labor.
At the special session Of the general assembly
the entire trouble can and must be settled. II
mistakes have been made, they must be
rectitied. II wrongs have been inflicted,
must be righted. But there Is
one thing that will not be done while | stand at
the head of this organization-tt will not be usSd
to further the schemes of individuals, Cliques or
parties, and it will be subordinate TO no other

The Aristocracy of England.

Says Adam Badeau in the New York
Sun: '"The landedproperty of England
covers 10000, O00 acres. 1t is worth
$40, 900, 600, 900, and yields an an
nual rent, independent of mines, of
100000, 600. O~ne-fourth of this ter
ritory, exclusive OF that held by the
owners Of less than an acre, is In the
hands of 1,200 proprietors, and a
second fourthis owned by 5000 9TH
srs; so that half of the entire country
IS held by 7,400 individuals. The
population is 35, 900, 900. The peers,

rious abodes OF the nobility, to be
present at the sessions, at which an
earl presided; and nearly q score of
aigh-placed proprietors attended what
interested me most of all, the sittings
