PHILADELPHIA, Penn, Nov. 3d.
The Press tomorrow will publish a Sc
cret circular issued by the General Officer
of the Knights of Labor, in which the fol-
lowing are the principal points of general
interest:
The address opens with reference to an
appeal that was issued for funds to assist
the victimized and locked-out members in
various parts of the country and the unsat-
isfactOry response which left many thou
sand members who were thrown upon the
hands Of the Order by the lockout lily pro-
vided for, thereby erippling the power and
usefulness of the Order. Mr.. Powderly
then says the Order has reached most
critical period in its history. He refers to
a contract which the employees were made
to sign, compelling them to leave the
Knights f Labor, and says:
every man who has joined the Knights
of Labor has pledged himself to do his duty
in the cause of mankind. No oaths bind
him to any act that is contrary to the duty
which he owes to God or his country, but
something more sacred even than his oath
his pledge of honor-binds him to loyalty
defend the principles of truth, honor, JUS
tice and citizenship. The alternatives pre-
sent themselves-unconditio surrender
Or mAply defense. Which should it be?
''In order to alleviate the distress of many
Knights who have been thrown out of en-
ployment, the address says the General
Executive Board unanimously resolved to
levy an assessment of twenty-five cents per
member from all local assemblies of the or
der. The assessment should be credited to
those who responded to the previous special
defense assessment.

specting the forthcoming apeX-side line suit
before Judge Hallett next week in Denver.
In all the stores, hotels and other places
this is the CHIEF topic of conversation.
Daily in front of the Clarendon Hotel a
small army Of horsemen cOngregVte and
move out singly and in groups for an in
spection of the surface and underground
workings of the Durant, Aspen and Emma
mines. These are lawyers and experts en-
ployed by the liitgants.
Prominent among the Apex men now
here, or who have lately been here, to eX-
anime the mines, are Clinton Reed, J. w.

THE NEW LETTER SHEET.

The Postoffice Department, under Mr.
Villas, has done much to straighten out
the tangle in postal affairs existing under
Republican rule, and to prove to certain
contract grabbers that the Department is
not desirable point to practice their
games on. The new 2-cent stamp has
come into use and is blessing to rich
and poor alike, and now We are to have
the 2-cent letter sheet envelope, which
will furnish paper, envelope and stamp
all for cents. The following, from the
Baltimore American, explains the new
candidate for public favor:
The Postofiice Department has completed
arrangements for issuing n combined letter
sheet and stamped envelope of n pattern
which can be readily understood and used
1t is styled a "letter sheet envelope" and is
only one edenomination-twoo cents. For the
present, at least, 1t is deemed eHpedient by
the Postmaster General to confine the issue
OF the letter sheet envelope to few of the
principal postoffices, the Washington office
being among the number The contract under
which the envelopes are furnished to the Gov,
ernment provides they shall be transported
free Of charge to the Government from New
YORK City, the place OF manufacture, to any
postoffice in the United States to which theS
may be ordered; and also that the Depart,
ment shall pay the contractor for only sucl
letter sheet envelopes as may be sold The
prices at which the envelopes are to be solo

A CERTAINTY.

The Daily Times at Worcester, Massa-
chusetts asks:
If, as reported there are $1,000 Mormon
children in Utah, how many fathers are
there2
As many fathers as there are children,
with the farther fact that every child born
in Utah or elsewhere of Mormon parents,
can bet its last dollar on a certainty as to
who its father really is.-Pomeroy'S Demo-
crdt.
The Mormon morning paper publishes
the above approvingly in the face OF the
fact that upon numerous occasions polyg-
amous wives have testified in court,
under oath, that they did not know who
were the fathers OF their children Did
they commit perjury, or arc Mormon
children better posted in regard to their
paternity than the mothers that bore
them? 1t is quite certain that if every
Mormon child can safely "bet its last
dollar" as to VINO its father really is
there are a whole lot of women in this
Territory who ought to be sharing the
quarters OF their fractional husbands in
