RETROSPECT
FFF1FFFEs

Ono year ago to-day we
launched our bark on tho
roubled waters OF competition.
The clouds looked threatening
and the sea looked angry, but we
were buoyed up by tho cheering
words OF friends and by n por-
feet confidence in our own ability
to navigate safoly through the
chopping sea OF grasping greed
and to avoid the shoals and
quioksands Of high prices. How
faithfully we have kept In tho
midchannel of square and honest
dealing we leave IL with those
who have honored us with their
patronage to say. But we have
long since passed tho expert
mental period Of our business
career and entered upon tho
smooth and placid waters OF n
great success. Success In busi-
ness, however, Is dangerous to
some people 1t is apt to make
them become careless and indif-
ferent, and to hug the delusion
that business is bound to con-
tinue without any further effort
of theirs. Not so with us, how
ever. Day after day the wheels
Of our energies have been lubri-
Gated by the Communications OF
our patrons until to-day they
are brighter and more active
than ever. Our buyers have
ravished the American markets
Of their choicest novelties in
Mems and Boys Clothing for the
coming fall and winter seasons
with which to surprise and please
our people. The advance styles
Of these goods are daily coming
in. The secret of our great sue
cess in the past has been the
uniformly low prices we have
named for the splendid goods we
sell. We are too jealous of that
success to jeopardize it for one
moment by departing from the
manner OF doing business that
has made that success possible.
In the future, as in the past, our
beacon light shall be, FINE

pressure is brought to bear from the out
side.
In Ireland the distress of the people
is terrible. Evictlons are enforced under

police upon one occasion subscribed s5
among themselves for the benefit of
those thev had evicted, so deplorable
was their condition. :
The acquittal of the Socialists, Burns,
Champion, Hyndman and Williams has
on the whole caused satisfaction
throughout Great Britain. 1t has been
a splendid advertisement for the Social
Democratic Federation and has given a
considerable impetus to the Social
movement. Mr.. Justice Cave, in sum-
ming up the evidence at the trial, be-
haved with remarkable fairness to the
defendants, recommending the jury not
too pay too much attention to particular
phrases, but to take "broad, bold and
even generous view of the case." The
general opinion among the workmen's
clubs is that the government acted very
foolishlv in prosecuting the Socialists.
How different is this case from that of
the two journalists who supported the
miners IN their strike at Dacazevllle,

Over fifty labor organizations, repre-
senting a strength of more than 10000
men, will take part in the denonstra-
ton on the eleventh instant. The
council of Federated Trades declared it
holiday for those that thev repre-
sented, and the Vovernor has followed
suit by declaring it general holiday.
Two new labor organizations have
been formed during the past week; the
steamship sailors, with charter mem
bership of nearl~ 200. aud the freight
handlers. This fairly completes the
organization at the water front, and it Is
hoped that a sub-federation of the vari-
GUS sea. .faring trades will shortly be
formed, having jurisdiction over all mar
itime affairs,
A "Socisi LIE que and Labor Lyceum"
has also been formed under the auspices
ofthe I, w. A. A paper, edited by five
ladies, has been started in connection
with these meetings, and Provisional
Committee of twenty has been ap-
pointed having exclusive charge of the
Sunday evening meetings, and a general
propaganda. The discussion of Joynes'
Socialist Catechism' has proved most
attractive feature.
Eminently characteristic of the new
departure in labor circles is the marked
tendency shown bv trades unions to
hold open meetings for the purpose OF
building up their mem bershlp and agi-
tating questions in which thev are sOe'
cially interested. The international
Furniture Work ers held such meeting
on Saturday last on behalf of the eight
hour movement, at which their secre-
tary announced that all the shops except
eight had agreed to the demands of the
union. The same organization, in con-
cert with the Cigar Makers 1nterna-
tional union. held mass meeting on the
following day, Sunday, to celebrate the
adoption by both orgauizat ons Of the
eight hour rule. H. Guttstadt, Of the

upon the writings of Henry George for
