More Questions and Matters.

Misrepresentation instead Of repres-
entation. Savy?
How many attorneys has the gas CON-
pany anyhow ? in the council, even.
The gas company had doubtless q
jubilation last right over the defeat of
the new company.
The council don't want the people to
have cheap gas. The people don't want
the council.
Who informed the sage Of the nut
shell" that there would be no quorum
Of the council, yesterday, and who told
the other fellow?
Wonder II the Mikado thinks that he
can run in the fellow whom the people
didn't want for street commissioner on
split Of the X. of l..
Why was the bouquet statesman so
anxious to adjourn the council meeting
He came In q half an hour late and was
the first to move an adjournment. His
effort against the Peoples Gas company
doubtless Frustrated him.
The City Attorney was Interrupted In
his game Of billiards last evening and
sent for. when the gas monopoly was
monopolizing even the city council, to
the exclusion of fair company.
1t is even limited chat certain Alder
man was sent for, also, lest the new

furnishing gas at One-third the price OF

Mr.. Davis.


Mr.. Jefferson Davis is reported as
speaking of the independence and dig
nifty of State sovereignty" This sort of
gush is a mere gaseous assemblage Of
words, not making sense when analysed.
1t is like saying, 1.-The largeness of In
finity, or the splendid number of units
in the innumerable." The country has
learned by experience the very best.
though cOstliest, of all teachers, all
about the high-sounding expression
Estate Sovereignty"
If Mr.. Davis could have branched out
in good old-fashioned Websterian elo-
quence in favor of the reunited National
Union, insisting simply as sine qua
non, on reserved State rights; but speak
ing of the past glories and brilliant fu-
ture Of the great Republic and varying
the style, speaking of our national con-
constellation of 80 States, as lone and
indivisible," he would have thrilled the
nation from center TO circumference.
There has been great want of stern,
sound sense in keeping with the pro-
gress of the day in this last glorifi0atien
of MIR. Davis. Flunkyism or hero-work-
ship, so Characteristic Of the masses In
darker ages, is not now confined to
European importations of the royal
stock. The veritable parsonage is at
hand, and all over of native birth and
Southern education. If he could only
have kept silent he would have been
held OF great depth Of learning. But,
alas, the ancient spoke, and spoke to
moderns; and talked of Bourbonism as
being eternal as the Alleganies. Senti-
mentalism and mutual admiration, with
the great central fgure-head for the
speaker, and for the forces of all South
ern rays of manworship, constitute
picture the most touching for its domes-
tic puerility; and the best or worst of the
farce is, that it is an exact picture of
the South in her deep fountains OF re-
membranes and weaknesses.
After this dreamy hallucination has
passed away, the South that took part
in the pageant will wake up anew to
facts and come forth like a man that
was for moment boosy, but afterwards
clearer of vision and more energetic in
practical affairs than before his episode.

A New Departure.

A representative of the LIGHT, while
at the San Pedro Springs Park yester-
day, got a glimpse at the background
scene on the stage at this public resort.
The picture is nothing less than Wolf
sons Bazaar of Fashion and the adjoin-
ing White Elephant store combined.
The view is well chosen. as it shows the
Main plaza front and part of the side
view of Acequia street, and is portrayed
in vivid cOlOrs, pleasing to the eye, and
at once recognized by the locker on.
Mr.. Wolfson has now completed the
finishing and furnishing of that monster
establishment. Clothing is the indis-
pensable adjunct to the making-up of
the human form, divine in modern civ
iliZatiOn. With this end in view, Mr..
WOlfsOn has, through his agents in the
East secured stock of gents. clothing
and furnishing goods that stands second
to none in the South. The rich, the
poor, the boy, youth and dude, and he
who wisdom rife, all can be accommo-
dated in suits that are up to the season
The furnishing goods department for
the male population is The most COM
plete ever gathered together, and
abOunds in an endless variety and quail
~ OF fabrics to suit the most fastidious
And right here, while telling of the
fashions, ii is not alone to the tastes of
tile sterner sex that Mr.. WOlfson caters
so successfully, but ladies will find in the
millinery department everything that
the soul can wish for. Eastern, Northern
and European fashions are here dis
played that cannot be Outdone at any
modern mart. Tuscan straws In bon
nets, aud rich floral decorations. in con-
junction with ostrich plumes, form the
principal combinations and decorations
for ladies' head-dress. The fact is,
even the most excessive delicacy
could not but be pleased at the large Sc
lection of material in the millinery line
as it is displayed at WOlfsOn's.
Novelties in dress goods and trim
mings are the order of the day, and
these are gotten up in all the light and
dainty fabrics that form the acceptable
styles for spring and summer dress.

THE STRIKE AND BOYCOTT.

A boycott on the Chicago merchants who
keep their stores open after O'Clock in the
evening is being planned by the retail cloth
iers, and the different labor organizations
have been asked to assist in the movement
for early closing.
The story of great lockout at the Chicago
stock yards, with 10000 men out ofsoemploy-
ment, is told in the telegraphic news from
day to day.
The freight brakemen on the Mahoning di-
vision of the New York. Pennsylvania & Ohio
railroad struck Wednesday noon for an in
crease from Sl.75 to 81 per day, and for re-
dress OF several other grievances. They
asked extra pay for all time over nineteen
hours consumed in making q round trip
They had been getting extra pay only when
the arp took over twenty hours, while the en-
gineers and f1remen come within the nineteen
hour limit. In answer to their request, the
railroad officials agreed to pay as high wages
any competing road, and give the men
time to investigate for themselves or agreed
TO arbitrate the matter both parties to abide
by the decision. The men would not agree
to these terms.
The journeymen bakers, Of Milwau-
kee, are having trouble with the BOSSES
The question at issue is the adjustment
of Sunday work. Baker journey men claim
that they are worked harder than any other
Iclass of men, being compelled to start at a.
m, or earlier, and to keep it up for sixteen
Or eighteen hours. They think they ought
get Sunday OF. Heretofore the
Knights of Labor and the union
have been at loggerheads and thus failed to
secure what they wanted. Now they are
working together, both having presented
petitions to the bosses to abolish Sunday
work. Four firms have done So Nine-tenths
of the baker bosses are represented as being
willing to accede to the mems demands. but q
small minority is holding out, and therefore
there is hitch. This minority claims to be
dependent almost solely on Sunday work, as
their customers bake for themselves the rest
of the week.
Some of the vessel masters at Milwaukee
have refused to pay the So per day demanded
by the union sailors, and Capt. Burton, of the
schooner L. A. Burton, imported a crew of
non-union men from Chicago. Fearing
trouble from the union men, he had them
leave the train at the Kinnikinnic avenue
bridge, about two miles from the city depot,
and take tug to the vessel as a precaution
against trouble at the vessel. Patrolmen
were aboard to give the union men a recep-
ton if they came. But they did not, and in
five minutes after the sailors were aboard the
vessel was in the lake bound for Buffalo.

81. Pnuilahor Notes.

A L. Robinson Robert Newell and Mr..
Normaudin, the three labor candidates for
representative, are all knights of Labor. Mr.
Robinson represents the holders union in
the Trades Assembly and is financial secre-
tary of that body; while Mr.. Newell is a dele
gate from local assembly in the same body.
The proceedings of the International Typo
graphical union have been received and dis
tributed among the different offices, and the
printers are discussing the several new meas
ures adopted by that body. The matter of
shorter hours is to be voted on by the differ
ent unions prior to April l, 1887.
The Typographical union is the largest or
ganized body in the City representing one
distinct branch of trade. NJ. T. Kahn, candi-
date for clerk of court, and NJ. j. Daily, for
county commissioner, two of labor's candi-
dates, are members of this body.
The cigarmakers of ST. Paul and Minneap-
oils will send duly accredited agent through
the district covered by the wholesale trade of
the nonunion cigar manufacturers of this
city, who will endeavor to secure converts to
the ''et alone" doctrine.
A gentleman identified with labor organize
tons stated in conversation with a GLOBE
reporter that unless NJ. f. Kahn received the
nomination for clerk of the court the whole
ticket in which his friends want him to be
would get black eye.
Reports FROM P. J. McClelland, the alb
sconding financial secretary of the Printers
union Of this city, who was recently heard
from in San Francisco say that he is bound
for Australia.
If tie laborers' headquarters scheme now
before the Trades assembly carries, an in
telligence office for the trades represented
will probably be established in connection
with it.
The workingmen say that the present po-
ltical agitation will leave them in shape to
distinguish friend from foe at future cleo
tons, if nothing more is accomplished this
fall.
At the labor lyceum this evening John H.
Ives will deliver an address on 1.-The Dignity
of Labor" The meetings are held at 183
East Sixth street.
Aid. Kahn denies the statement that he in
structed the Trades assembly committee not
to present his name to the Republican con-
ventiOn.
President Harroun'S name was proposed
for representative at the Trades assembly
Friday night, but he said nay
The labor organizations are negotiating for
a hall on Seventh street for their head
quarters.
Seventeen organizations are represented in

Lively Political Discussion in the
Trades Assembly.
The Candidates Favored by That
Organization.

Politics was on top at the meeting of the
Trades and Labor assembly Friday night,
and consequently the attendance was quite
large. The reports from trades was not
numerous, the molders and carpenters re-
porting work very good, the plumbers and
SteamtitterS good, with all men at work,
and the Stonecutters brisk, which may be
taken as an index of trade generally. The
delegates were instructed to request the
members Of their several organiza-
tons to use none but union
label cigars, as Greenhagen s. Frye,
Hart, and Kuhles & Stock are not running
union offices, and they and other non-union
manufacturers could be reached best by this
means. The goods of the John Morris COM
pany, printers of blanks, blank books, etc.,
of Chicago, will be ''let alone" at the re-
quest of Typographical Union, and gentle
men in search of knit goods in the shape OF
underwear, mitS, ETC., were requested 10
contine their inquiries to those bearing the
union label, and thus assist the female
Knights of Labor engaged in their manu-
facture. The matter of general LABOR
hall and library was brought
up and discussed, and will
be further looked after in the future, ana
one assembly, 1898, reported that it would
donate $50 to the library fund. Some of
the delegates censured the committee that
was instructed to attend the Republican
county convention and present certain labor
delegates for not doing so, and as it was
now too late to ask any nominations at the
hands of the Republicans, committee of
ten was appointed to wait on the Demo
cratic convention, Tuesday. and ask for the
Endorsement of NJ. F. Kahn for clerk of
courts. NJ. j. DAILY for county commissioner
and the following as representatives:
Robert Newell, from the First ward; S. A.
NOrmandin, Fourth ward, and A. L. Rob-
inSon, Fifth ward.
