LABOR NOTES.

Thirty-three Knights Of Labor assemblies,
with a total membership of 5000 have been
rmed in Paterson, \. j.
The coal miners at Mt. Carmel, Pa,
threaten 70 strike unless the reduction OF I'D
per cent. made last year Is restored.
1t is expected that the strike OF the brass
and silver workers in New York will become
general in that and the surrounding cities.
Statistics gathered by the state industrial
bureau show that in ninety-eight industries
of Pennsylvania the average pay in 1888 was
less than IS per week.
a basting machine that is said to be able
70 do the work of fifteen girls is being tried
in a large clothing house in Boston, and the
employees of the house, both girls and men,
are considerably excited thereby. Perhaps
they will strike.
The strike of the Paterson, n. j., iron
holders continues. An order from South
America for 900 worth OF machinery was
recently refused because Of the uncertainty
as to what the men will do, and the order
went to England.
A decision has been rendered by the United
states supreme COuII III Jno case VI VIC w a.
bash against the people OF the State OF Hi
nois. he judgment Of the supreme court Of
Illinois, which was adverse TO the railroad,
was reversed, and the case was remanded.
The protest which the Knights OF Labor
convention adopted against the compulsory
insurance schemes of railroad corporations,
says The Cincinnati Enquirer has in it the
element OF reason. These schemes while Os-
tensibly in the interest Of the employe alone,
are really also protection Of the employing
companies against suits for damages.
The annual report OF Chief Arthur, OF the
| Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineess, states
that twenty eight new divisions were formed

Rightly Hanged.

JoNEsBoRo, ILL, November 12.-Wil-
liam s. Wilson was hanged this after
noon at LAO o'clock. His crime was a
most atrocious one. Shortly before last
Christmas he deserted his wife and seven
children at West Saratoga, leaving them
with but five dollars Returning on the
seventh day of last January he found
some neighbors at his house chopping
wood. He went into the house, and
without word shot his wife dead. In
two months the woman would have be.
come mother. Wilson was tried in the
September term of court, convicted, and
sentenced to the gallows.

Doodle I'm Politics.

The people everywhere are Disguised
with doodle in politics" 1t was the Re-
publican party that introduced the Gus
tom of raising enormous campaign funds
for the purpose of carrying doubtful
States. 1t was the Republican party that
furnished the money with which Dorsey
and Dudley saved Indiana" in 1884. 1t
is the Republican party that created the
Goulds and Huntingtons, and encour,
aged their incursions into the field OF
practical politics." 1t is the Repub-
lcan party that has filled the United
States Senate with Moneybags, railroad
agents like Sewell, Mitchell OF oregon,
and Stanford, and millionaire protectors
of monopolies like Warner Miller, Saw
yer, and Don Cameron. 1t was the Re
publican candidate for President who sat
down to the fatal "Belshazzar feast" with
the confident plutocrats in this city on the
eve of an election which they thought
was to confirm their grip upon the Coy
ernment.-Nelo York World.

THE SERIOUS ASPECT.

II is An element of q modern newspaper
to give the humorous as well as the grave
view of all passing events, and hence we
LET satire have it's part in criticising the
official acts of the State authorities.
But il is matter of the weightiest I'M
portance that the people of the state
should be honestly informed OF the real
condition of things; and the point Tor
Democrats to consider quickly, is that the
Republicans have determined to advocate
a fair debt settlement upon the offer oil
the creditors, which is to leave suillclenl
revenue TO the State to pay all her ex-
penses on the present basis. The Demo
cratic conventions have been accustomed
TO cut rates with the Mahonites, and bid
lower whatever the Republican platform
called for. But, strange to say, the eX-
ample is to be changed; and if we are TO
follow it, still we must 60 for debt
settlement merely because Malone does
it.
Is il not better TO take the lead for once
and explain, to begin with, that there is a
practical way out of our difficulties, and
without risking our school fund or any
other of our appropriations?
The party that takes the field first with
this straightforward plan will win, and
General Malone is smart enough to
know it.

x-Solicitor-GeneralG oode, OF the Gov
eminent counsel in the Bell Telephone
suit lust decided in Ohio, has stated that
nothing had been decided as yet as to the
future action of the Government in the
case. A consultation would be held
shortly he said, to determine whether an
appeal should be taken to the Supreme
Court of the United States, or new suit
entered-the suit just decided having no
bearing in the case other than that OF
want of jurisdiction.

The Bell Telephone.

COLUMBUS, November 12.-Judge Thur
man. the leading counsel for the Govern
ment in the Bell telephone case, expressed
great surprise last night at the decision OF
Judge Sage at Cincinnati, and said he be-
lieyed the telegraph report that the judge
had thrown the case out of the court must
be mistake of the reporter, as Judge
Sage was only passing on the demurrer
In case the decision is as reported, he
says nothing will be done further till the
counsel for the Government holds a con
sultation in this city in December, and
the case will probably. be then taken to
the Supreme Court.

HON. JOHN 5. BARBOUR

he said to a Post reporter at the Metro
politan Hotel last night, 81 never thought
of such a thing as Democratic losses in
Virginia. | did not dream of any dan
ger. Malone had already been put down
and | did not see how the Republican,

sumo that the Democrats of Virginia dc
not think they have received the recogni'
ton to which they were entitled at the

WHY do not the States officers arrest

MIR. CARLISLE AND THE SPEAKER
SHIP.

The question has been asked if Mr..
Carlisle could be elected Speaker in the
event Of his seat in Congress being con-
tested. There is well-known precedent
in this case. During President Tylers
administration Hon. John Winston Jones,
of Chesterfield, obtained the certificate of
election from this (Richmond) district.
His seat was contested He had been
Speaker of the previous Congress, and
was reelected Notwithstanding the con-
test. The contest was decided in his
favor both by the election committee and
the House. Mr. Carlisle can be elected

A RESTRICTIVE constitutional amend ment, similar to the law recently enact ed by congress for the government of the territories, Is being considered by the California legislature. IL k even more sweeping in its restrictions than the congressional enactment, and con fines the state legislation down to Its legitimate and plain duties. As rule, all political subdivisions of the country are governed too much. The laws are too numerous, verbose ana conflicting. and the ambition of rising young states men, upon reaching the legislative halls, runs largely to leaving his footprints on the sands of time, speaking in ststutsble allegory, and the result IS chaos and confusion. When the doors are open to B wide range of special enactments. he he often predIcates his claim to fame and further political advancement upon his numerical inilictlons in the shape of bills introduced; and it IS safe to say that the country would be far better of If nine-tenths of them were put to sleep in a convenient pigeon hole. The pro- hibition of special Legislation Is com mendsble in every state and territory, md the esgerness Of those states that have seen its good influence but have not enjoyed 1t, to share in its benefits, Is accepted as proof that its wisdom has been practically and satisfactorily dem onstrsted.

HE people of San Francisco are just lylndignaut over the order of the treas ury department that all the light weight gold coins presentediat the San Francis co sub-treasury shall be stamped with the word light a,ross their face thereby uniting them for further use as coin. The order is imperative, and any coin worn by abrasion even though it be so slight as to just come within the terms of the order, Is so stamped and refused The United States as sumes to issue coin which it not only re- fuses when it becomes mutilsted through consta 1t use, but disfgures and depre- ciRtes its value to merely bullion basis. The treasury has heretofore redeemed treasury notes even after they had been destroyed by fire, and returned good money for them; and there IS no reason why 1t should mot also redeem it's coins. This order will have the effect of flood ing the provincial towns with light weight gold coin, so that the losses, if any result, will be borne by the coun- try cousins of the metropolitan capi- tslist and. as usual, the poor classes will be made to bear the burden of thIs new oppression by democratic sd. ministration.
