For the benefit of those who may not
know The ENQUIRER desires to state
that there is no Socalistic organization
in Chicago, though the city is full of ad-
vocates of the doctrine which does not
necessarily mean bloodshed. The war
IN Chicago is engaged in by the discon-
tented of everv shade of belief Par
sons, Spies and Fielding are Anarchists,
and are continually warrng on the So
cialists.

ONCE MORE.

Once more 1 must ask the indulgence
of friends, at home and abroad, and par
ticularly those who have a'rlght to ex-
pect letters from me I was away on the
Pacific coast for nearly four weeks, and,
as usual, during nv absence hundreds Of
letters accumulated on my desk. NV
business affairs and duties to organiza-
ton have increased 80 of late that I am
verv much crowded at present. To
make matters more complicated I ar
rived home rather little the worse for
the wear; a cold and little too much
loud talking have damaged my vocal or
gans, and I am under the control of a
physician, who predicts serious results,

Just think of a labor "dema ogue"
without voice; we'll that's nv case
now, but I Just WON'T "choke off," I
will be at the front again soon. In the
meantime, friends, have a little patie nee
with me.

THE INHUMAN BRUTE.

One feels no more sorrow at the kill
ing of one of them than one does at the
shooting of mad dog.-Rer ublican.
The above from a paper which claims
to be humane and Christian, and which
cries out IN holy horror when tyrant
is removed" The men in Chicago
have erred, through ignorance and blind
obedience; but only brute could pen
such lines as the above.

THE Craftsman, of Washington, has
for it's Denver correspondent creature
who has not the respect of decent
workingman in th9 Rockies. He is a
dead duck in all labor organizations, and
now has for his friends" only those who
need and can buy his traitorous services,
The saloon keepers even dislike him, and
they ought to know him. Friend Bisbee,
YOU had better shake him.

IT is common talk all over Denver
that "the News and Republican have
changed places on the labor question"
and it looks as If this was true. 1t only
proves that papers of that class never
have anv principle; but just shift with
the Wind-and the dollar.

lieve Buchanan is as we'll known to me
as any member in that union and l
only know him to honor ana respect
him. Those who know him best love
him the most. He is the very opposite
of what the depraved and slavlsf pup
would have the public believe, Perhaps
there are some half dozen toadles IN
the Typographical union. pets OF lore
men and tools of the proprietors; men
who are used by political buns during
elections, who are jealous OF the lnf1u-
ence Buchanan holds over the working
men of the CITY, that do hate him-but
where there is one such there are m any
who, unbiased by selfish and personal
motives, only know him to respect him.
The daily papers of Denver are only
with workingmens so far as their rights
and interests do not conflict with those
of their masters. On the question of
eight hours, after all the fencing they
have done, they only believe it is good
for the toiler when the master is quite
willing to grant it. .. /.
Of course there are lots of sore heads;
schemers and frauds in all organiza-
tions but these fellows play more
hidden game than does Buchanan. They
worm themselves into organizations for
political and selfish ends: they risk
nothing and have everything to gain.
1t is always the scum who make friends
with the capitalistic press, who seek in
terviews to air themselves, AMI do not
hesitate to betrav the brothers, they are
obligated to respect, to their enemies.
What hurts the press of this city Is
the growing hatred of the masses to-
wards them they begin to see that the
working people are learning who are
their enemies. The shouts of approval
and applause that followed the declara-
ton that the public press was the enemy
of labor at the Academy mass meeting
on Sunday, stirred all the bile there was
IN the scribblers, and that is the reason
they make a personal attack.
How fiat the attacks upln the editor
of Tue ENQUIRER fall upon the men who
know him and his work and let the
public know that the workingmeh,
whom tie T.-R. seeks to speak for, have
time and time again elected him to the
highest gifts in their power, and how
idiotic and malicious their aspersions
will sound
The truth is, it is not Buchanan nor
any other man they fear and hate so
much as 1t Is any labor leader that may
become prominent. They don't want to
see labor organization have any leader
but themselves. Bless Their dirty souls,
they want to | ad the "bovs" and they
are afraid that the influence they have
exercised in the past in leading them to
vote to power some trickster and tool of
their own will be lost, and instead work
ingmen will seek to govern themselves.
Worklngmen, awake Think for
yourselves Study the problems of your
lives, and see if the reason you and your
fathers have been ignorant, deluded and
worked to death for the benefit of others
is It because lust such scoundrels as
the editor of the T.-R. might have
plenty. w. G.

The trade depression continues. Work

this of course is no sign of increased
trade. The discomfort in the country

for another little while, but it cannot be
kept there very long. Bands Of men are
roaming the country in search of " rk,
walking from town to town and gener-
ally begging for food to maintain them

newspaper reports of rioting does not in
the least prove that the distress is much
abated, but that the question has been
shelved for time. The measures taken
by the charity committee and the local
authorities for the relief of the starving
has had some effect in quieting the dis
order. The departure Of the frosty
weather has also had some influence in

On the whole, however, | am glad to
see the workingman get good kicking
it has wen |erfully enlightening infu-
ence. 1t is quite astonishing to contrast
the influence of a Workingman-and
especially respectable workingman"
before and after riot in which he has
had few bayonet digs or truncheon
blows. Before-he is peaceful citizen ;
wants his wrongs redressed iE consti-
tutional manner; has no notion of ques-
tioning the rights of property, and would
even strongly uphold them. After-he
thinks that liberty is word that has
been conjured with ; won't believe tina
he lives in a free country; declares that
we must now 60 to the root of the ques-
ton and Revolutionize society; and
further, has serious doubts as to whether
it is not the duty Of every workingman
to declare war against the government
and seize every opportunity of declaring
thatrepubl1cs and representative govern
ments are mere cloaks to hide the iron
domination of money makers.

since he has been an employer. When
he worked at the case on the News his
string was as large as any, and since he
has been in business for himself, though
he has not made as much money, yet he
has toiled early and late, and from
twelve to sixteen hours would be safe
estimate to put upon his DAVIS work. He
has done good work for No. 40, and has
received the highest honor they can

But instead of the trial being broken
of at this point the attorney general
gravely proceeded with charge of sedi-
ton. Now, in reality, the attempt to
prove that preaching Revolution is an
ofense punishable by law is far more
serious than furnishing individuals who
are suppo sed to have disturbed the pub
lie peace" But this point of the affair
was not seen at first by the attorney
general aud that unhappy person Was
therefore put in very uncomfortable
position. However, it all ended well.
The shop-keepers are pleased. The pub
lie have no grounds for grumbling. And
the government feel that they have vim
dicated the law and thus nobly dis
charged their duties. The scare is over,

security pervades the Oxford street

may have in store for us, who can say ?
A slight revival of trade would greatly
alter the whole aspect of affairs. But
we can feel sure tt at any revival of busi-

long. AS yet there is no ground to
hope for even slight reviv al and every
reason to suppose that the depression

OF this at least we can feel sure: that
now is. the time for pushing forward the
Socialist propaganda. From every cor

same tale of strife between capitalistand
laborer There comes also the same aC
counts of government brutality towards
the workers who dare express their dis
content. The working principle of the
capitalist class is that the workman Will
be tolerated as long as he is peaceable
and remains content with the wages
which it may please his master to pay
him. But if the workman grumbles-
