While we regret to lose General Crook from Arizona, she change from an active life of hardships and psivations, to an sasy berth is one which he has merited. While othen in the army have had what are called soft berths General Crook. entire army life has been spent on the frontier fighting and
 subduing hostile Indiana wh'le 1t IS admitted that during the pest year he has not achieved the success be had hoped for and which the people of Ari- .ona earnestly hoped for It is generally believed by far minded citizens that had . less experienced man than General Crook been in command, idbssad of from thirty to fifty hostiles being oo the va

The latest story connected with that celebrated SIs,eoo peaeh-blow vase of the Morgan collsction is that it never belonged to a Chinese prince, but that It vas originally bought in China for $soo by an American who was regarded by the arful natives as green old sucker for buying an of-color article at 90 great price. The statement made by the aucrioneer at the recent Morgan sale that there is not enough ingenuity in the world to produce its equal. IS secuted as equally fallscious with the rest of the rigamarole related as the his
 tory of this queer specimen of bric-a-
 brac. The Times critic declares that il could be duplicated over and over again for comparatively HiA,ng sum- Wheth- CT this story be true or not, the fact remains that the peachblow vase has fooled somebody pretty badly.

the MASTER WORKMAN SPEAKS.
I. v. Powdery Outlines me Platform Of Inc Com
Ing Peoples Party.

A circular recently issued by Grand
Master Workman Powderly, says that
the order is not in any sense polti-
cal organization. 1t has higher mis-
sion to serve than the forming OF a
mere political party. The masses mrst
first be educated to understand their
wrongs and degradation and see full
and final solution Of the labor prob
lem. When such u party does come,
its name will not be the laboring mans
party, or the bondholders' party, but
the party Of the people, for the people
and by the people.
A party refusing to receive special
privileges or grant them.
\ party that vii. not sit idly by, and
do nothing, or worse than nothing.
when thousands and hundreds of thous.
ands Of honest men are tramping our
streets. wanting work, willing to work,
and none to be had at any price-with-
out employment at home and tramp
act" threatening them if they dare to
seek it at distance.
A party that will dem and and estab-
lish labor bureaus.
A party that will declare and enforce
a law declaring that not another foot Of
public lands shall he given to railroads
and corporations.
A party that will insist upon exact
equality before the laws.
A party that will be humane enough
t. believe that pure air should and
must be found in cur mines and fac
tories.
A party that will abolish the con-
tract system ON all work done for the
use Of the public.
A party that believes If we are to
have free country, that it can only
exist by reason Of the intelligence Of
its citizens, aud if intelligence is to be
the base Of our continued existence,
the child must be educated and fitted
for the position he is to occupy in the
future. This can only be done by pro-
hibiting children from going into our
workshops and mills before attaining
their 14th year.
A party that will not confine man
in prison because he is unfit to asso-
ciate with his fellow men, and then tax
the community to board and lodge the
criminal free. and sell his labor So AS to
enter into competition with the same
labor Of the honest. lnw-aniding citizens.
a party that will make il fashionable
tn tie honest and pay an equal price
for equal labor. regardless Of color,
creed, country or sex.
