defended the striking iron miners at Decazeville,
for breaking into the residence of the superin-
tendent, M. Watrain, and tramplng him to death.
M. Basly spoke with great violence. He delivered
a Socialiastic harangue, dwelling on the hard
ships which the miners were compelled to
endure, and declared that under all the circum-
stances of the case the killing of M. Watrain
was "a popular act Of Justice" The President
of the Chamber repeatedly called NJ. Basly
TO order, without, however, tempering his Ian

COMMUNICATIONS.

To the llOrEmcaS IdrOc0te:
There have been placed in the hands of
supposed responsible parties circulars
coming from the Commissioner of La
Dor, through his agents. Said circulars
are prepared to give an intelligent C1 idea
of the number employed, sex, adult or
minor, etc Bringing up the rear is this
question
GLOW far does the work of children
CDtHc into direct competition with that
OF men. and how far does it simply help
adult labor, rather than displace it 7"
As to the first part, his knowledge is
Iations. and therefore, of no practical
value in the solution of the labor prob
lem. AS to the second, it seems to be
absurd in view Of the fact that he asks
such question, to think that "A mind
from which such an idea could emanatc
is capable of sympathizing with the
wealth producer.
man need not of necessity be an adj
vanced thinker to entertain this view of
the matter.
The commissioner asks if the child as
sists the man to preform his labor.
Does he not know that a system that
forces child to labor, to the detriment
of health and education, is morally
wrong? Does he not know that it is the
mission of the head Of the family to sup
port and educate his offspring:
This is what the world expects of men
in this advanced stage Of our civiIz-
alton C0 and in the face Of such eXaCtioms
he goes about endeavoriug to sustain the
present unjust competitive system, ask
ing in how many cases does the labor of

''On the grass natricans said,
Let the mob their hunger stay.
Nober animals are fed
On the hllsks, the beans, the hay.

Not for them our warmth ami ease--
Born to ignorance and woe.

LET us eat, and drink, and sleep;

Why complain they grass is cheap.

Then the mob rose in its wrath,
Flinging gray tradition down.
Swept reSisteSs from its path

Hank the tramp Of toilers' feet;

FIaunted redcapS rule the street
Who can tell themwhat to spare?
So the people triunphcd then;
But, the day OF vengeance past,
Once again ON suffering men
Ancient chains were quickly cast.
Five score years have rolled away;
Still we toll with Shackled limb.
Thankess service wears us gray,
Wearicd eyes are waxing dim.
Prey to Capitals grim scheme,
Backs are bent and bodies worn.
Still mid darkest night we dream
OF the fast approaching morn,
And faint streak in the skies
GIaddcns those who see Alright;
Soon the full sun-burst will rise,
Flooding all the world with light!

THE GENERAL. ASSEMBLY.
No Trades Assemblies Resolutions in
Favor Of Labor Politics.

After all the expense attending
the general convention Of the
Knights Of Labor, expense Of time,
energy and money, some very I'M
portant things are left undonc. One
of these is that no special provision
was made for the formation Of ma
tionaI trade assemblies. Though
this may be prejudicial to the Order,
it need not be necessarily prcjudiciaI
to such bodies Of WOrkmrn who de-
sire a national organization Of their
trade or calling. Let those who de-
sire the benefits Of a national organi-
Hation 90 right ahead and form one.
join in with other trades in central
labor unions, and thus do all they
can to improve their condition.
A resolution by Thomas O'RcjIly,
the wcII-nown tclegraphist, demand
ing of Congress the purchase Of the
telegraph system Of the country was
not acted upon, Whvsuch proper
demand should not be made, at least,
seems incxpIicabIc.
The raising Of the salaries Of Off
cialS was not forgotten, however.
No doubr the delegates were salts
fled that those who work for work.
men should receive moro than those
who work for bosses.
One common-scmsc act was the
passing Of resolutions recommending
all local assemblies TO vote only for
candidates for political office who
stand upon the X. Of l.. platform. The
platform of the Labor Party is the
same rs that of the knights Of Labor
The candidates upon the labor tickets
are all knights of Labor not recent
acquisitions, but regular Old mem
be 5. who became Knights before it
was popular. Therefore. let all true
Knights repu3iaty the corrupt party
nominations, and vote the straight
labor ticket. The Geitrai hs,rm-
bly, passed good resolution if it did
nothing else.
Just before aaiournjng the G,ncr-
al Assembly adopted Il resolution
appealing for mercy for the Chicago
anarchists. This is an honor to the
Order from a sympathetic point of
view. though a demand for justice
would have been the correct thing.

THE annual report cf Mr.. Jordon,
treasurer of the United States, has
been been given TO the press. Mr..
Jordon presents "a very comprehensive
report of the operations of the treas
ury for the fiscal year ending June
30, 1886, and its condition on that and
subsequent dates. The net receipts
of the government for the tisical year
were $336.439, 727, the new expcndi-
ture 242.433,l3S. The receipts were
$l2,149020 greater and the expendi-
lures were SIC, s43, .96 less than last
year, making an increase in the net
receipts for the past fisical year, over
that of 1885, Of $30,492.8l1. The
excess of revenues over expenditures
S93, ,95G.5S0. During the year bonds
amounting to $44,351,350 were re-
deemed and applied to the sinking
fund. Treasurer Jordon suggests a
revision of the method heretofore adj
opted in making up the sinking fund,
by which the sinking fund charge for
the current year will be $37,436.45S,
instead of $49,S43,72S, according to
tie present method. BY the present
method the entire debt of the United
States will be retired by the year 1908
and if the method suggested by Treas
urer Jorlon is adopted, the debt will
be extineuished by the year 1913. At
the close of the year the United States
bonds held as security for national
bank circulation amounted to S275.-
974, 800, reduction of $36,l70, 400
during the year. Three per cent
bonds amounting to S34 AS, go we're
withdrawn during the year, most of
which were surrendered for rcdenip
ton. The amount of bonds deposited
during the year was $26. .924, 900 and
the bonds Withdrawn amounted to
S6l,922,400, showing a decrease Of
$34,1l5500.

Offensive Partisanship Defined.

In reviewing the presidents action
III the Benton and Stone cases, and
his own explanation of his acts, the
Chicago Inter-Ocean says: "The po-
sition of the president is strongly aud
clearly stated. As definition Of pol :
icy no objections will be raised to it.
Neither wilt any republican object to
democratic president following such
a policy. The weakness of the declar-
alton is that it is criticism OF the
pretenses OF the administration. Pres
ident Cleveland i'll the second year of
his administration is III fact criticising
and censuring President Cleveland in
the first year of his administration.
1t is now clear what the president
meant Ill his first official utterances on
the question. He meant that DEM
socrat in the service of the government
who made partisan speeches was not
offensive because his speeches were In
tended to increase the influence and
uphold the policy Of the administra-
ton. A republican, efficient and hon
est, capable in his duties, became an
offensive partisan subject to removal
when he made speech for republi-
can candidates. In short, republicans
who held Office when Mr.. Cleveland
entered upon his duties as president
we're removed because they we're re-
publicans. Democrats we're put III
Office because they were democrats,
and because they upheld and were ag-
gressiye in extending the influences Of
the democratic administration. This
was The truth as the President now so
clearly aud forcibly states it, but in the
beginning neither the president nor
his advisors would admit that this
was to be the policy of the adnsinis-
tration. On the other hand, all of
them claimed that the republicans
we're removed for cause, that the

cause assigned in most cases was Of
fenslve partisanshiEp, p, the effort aA heiaA = =
made to create the impression that
this phrase was used to define an or
fense against the rules Of the reforms
ed civil service. The plea then pnt
forward by tine friends Of the president
was that he would make removals
only III the interest of civil service re-
form. Now, however, the phrase il
declared to mean disloyalty to the ad
nli,listration.
1t may happen that in the later
years of Mr.. Clevelend's adninistra-
ton democrat who does not favor
the reelection of Mr.. Cleveland may
become quite as offensive in the eyes
of the administration as Mr.. Stone or
any other republican retained in Office.
The theory Of offensive partisanship
now advanced contemplates loyalty to
the administration that is loyalty To
President Cleveland.
Iii Mr.. Cleveland should enter Tie
list i'll 1883 us u candidate for re-
election aud some other notable
democrat should enter the lists against
and democratic officials in go,ernmenr
services should be inclined to supporS
some other mar thau Mr.. Cleveland,
then under this definition lhcy woult
be guilty Of offensive partisanship alrG
would be subject to removal. Pcrson
al loyalty 10 the president is to lie tho
standard Of Judgment and the pres
dents letter IN che Stone case is nOtiec
to federal Office holders of what is ex
pected Of them. 1t is in effect cam
p;lign document preliminary to tile
presidential canvass of 1888. Any
federal otfice-holder who is not loyaL
to the administration, that is, to Mr,
Cleveland, becomes all offensive par
tisan and subject to removal. That.
is the long and short of it.

ssBlaine Right for Once. =

If Mr.. Blaine is the next president
of the United States we hope he will
turn every democrat out of Office the
day after his inauguration. LII Mr..
Cleveland expects to he the next pres
ident he will do we'll to begin the same
good work now upon the republicans.
That he should have been little slow
was, in the nature OF the case,
reasonable and polite, aud we
have found no fault with him for it.
Bnt we DO not believe that he is ut
heart any more OF Il monarchist than
we are ourselves, and the time has
come when a clear distinction should
be drawn between IN upright civil
service, directed by party responsibility,
and the nndemocratic, unrepublican,
and nn-American, Franco English
hobby-horse, which the political toy
makers of New York and Boston
would bring here from London and
Paris and set upsto be ridden BY little
boys III straw hats and velvet jackets.
You are right, Mr.. Blalue- for once.
You beat the force-bill conspiracy, and
you beat the third-term conspiracy
and, ifyou lend the popularity of your
name and the weight of your influences
to beat this revolutionary scheme Of
political phariseeism and benevolent
miIksoppery you will deserve well o1
yor country and will be remembered in
the world to come, even though you
may never be president Of the
United States. Louisville Courier
