TO BOYCOTT BREEN.
The Trades Assembly VIII Boycott
MIR. Breen After One Days Grace,


At the meeting of the Trades assembly
last evening the matter of bOycotting Matt
Breen, the court house contractor, as the
only means left of forcing him to recognize
the union and its demands was discussed
at some length. 1t was asserted that every
effort had been made by committees from
the Trades assembly and the Stonecutters'
union to effect peaceabe adjustment. but
that Mr.. Breen had repealed and snubbed
the committees on every occasion and re-
fused to listen or accede to their demands.
A large number were of the opinion that all
peaceable means had been exhausted and
that summary proceedings were justified
and were i'm favor of declaring boycott
Immediately. 1t was finally referred to a
committee of three with full power to act
in the matter. The committee will to-day
notify Mr.. Breen of the action of the as
embly and give him day in which to re-
,ede from his position. II he does not in that
lime agree to recognize the union, to pay
the current wages and to work eight hours
! day at the old rate per hour, boycott
will be Immediately declared on all stone

from his Kasota quarries. He is said to
have sold $40. 900 worth of Kasota stone in
the rough last year, principally in Mime
apolis. Milwaukee and Chicago. The re-
suit of boycott would be that no union
stonecutters would work his stone and con-
tractors and builders would be compelled
to buy elsewhere. Minneapolis and Mil
waukee are solid union towns and Chicago
is nearly so.

JObberY.

Rev Thomas Van Ness delivered an
able sermon last Sunday morn ng, in
which he treated intelligentlv some of
the pressing questions Of the day. Per
feet educational equality is a "hobby"
with Mr.. Van Ness, and the mastery
manner in which he rides his "hObby"
is convincing of the wisdom of his po-
sition. In the course of his remarks last
Sunday he made some comparisons of
the methods and expenditures for school
purposes in Colorado and other states,
and, to how what Internal rascals we
have 'Jobbing" in our in stitutions in
this sta e, a portion of his remarks are
here given. Further comment upon the
sermon will be found upon th g editorial
page:
Internationally, we are better off and
worse off than the older states. Cur
lower grade schools are well managed,
but when We come to consider those CT
higher grade, we see the worst sort of
lncompetenCv as regards the providing
for the future. Why think oft Illinois,
with population of 100000 and with
wealth of 81 900, 100000, expends only
$4,000 for higher education, and MiChi-
gan, with less population, say 100000,
spends nearly the same amount, per
haps little less. Yet Colorado, with a
population only one thirteenth of Hi
nois, with wealth which at the best
cannot be made igher than $lI5,000,-
600, or one tenth that Of illinois, actually
expends for its higher education $4,000,
or more, bv some thousands, than either
Michigan or Illinois.
"One might not say ANYTHING about
this extravaganza if one only felt that
the money was going for some wise pur
pose. but what are the facts? Illinois
gives higher education to l 100 or over
Michigan gives to 1000 the same great
boon, while Colorado, with larger ou :
lay of money, educates but paltrv num-
Der, in all not over $50, and of these
only about sixty are qualified to receive
college entrance certificates. The facts
when put this way are startling. Why,
the same amount of money we now ex
pend would be sufficient to pay railroad
fare to and from Cambridge or New Ha.
ven and Colorado, and keep all oul
students at Harvard or Yale. Truly, as
state, we are starting out in a most
spread-eagle sort of way, If we hope to
keep this thing up manv more years"

1t is strange that the press and pulpit
ignorantly associate aud COufOund the
terms Socialism, Communism, Anarchy,
and destruction. Socialism would place
public capital under the control of the
state; Communism is the abolition Of
all private property Anarchy is the alb,
sence of government. Believers in any
of these may or may not 'dvocate de.
structive force to gain the end.
The press and pulpit control public
opinion almost entirely. How a circum.
stance which calls forth such wholesale
lndiscriminate condemnation can be
beneficial to the true doctrine, as som e
claim it is, l cannot see.
A few thinking minds may be stimu.
lated, but the mass of people receive, in
this shock, a prejudice whice is retained
by their conservatism, and can be re-
moved only by slow growth. But nc
matter what the benefits NAV be, no agi-
tator has right to select victim
whose violent death shall stir the public
mind. This view Is consistent only in
materialist a Christian should be the
last person to object to any prospect Of
salvation by blood.
TO select for the victim anv but tbs
real enemy, is the very essence Of des
potism. The explosionist should decide
upon some building and 90 with it, &C
cording to the brave disregard for self
for which he ls famed. In the presen
instance the hero does not sustain hi!
reputation. He throws his bomb ant
hides, leaving many others to suffer the
penalty. There is no quarrel between
the true Socialist and the police. Th'
latter will be seen while needed to pre-
serve order under whatever system ex
lsts. When we have system withou
di>order, his occupation will be gone
The policeman is nothing but conser
vator. Even S .cialism, when established
would need him if threaten ed by enc
mics. ZENO.

Dear mama, here the life we live
Is often planted full of thorns,
But there, the love we freely give
AS freely brings Us loves return.
The flower we pluck in youths fair morn
Atnoon may shrink from beauty touch,
But mingled with the hearts unborn
The bliss OF dying brings too much
OF hope of other lives to live
And other hopes to pluck unshorn,
To bear a thought Of dread to which
The hand of love may not return.
FraiI blossoms Of changing year
y May fade and die within the hand,
But life immortal given to men
But brightens as we near the land
Where love, and hope, and faith, and truth
Shall bloom in everlasting youth.
Then fly the thought that here we leave
The sheaves we've gathered, ere the day
Had waned and darkened,-for the sun
Shall find US bearing them away
When next he rises on the field
To which our labors have revealed
The tares and brambles we have left,
Nor deem ourselves of wheat bereft.
No ! we shall never HISS Iue pain
We leave upon life's battle field
Nor wish TO mingle with the grain
The tares and sorrows now we yield.
All! how we cling with dark despair
To thorns among the roses hid,
And fancy they were planted there
To win our hearts to brighter bed,
Where love has tended sweeter flowers
To beautify immortal bowers.
This then deny! The rose as sweet
May blossom here without its thorn
The grain may give US bread to live
Nor feel the weeds and tares return,
The hopes we gathered to our breast
OF life immortal in the skies,
May find fruitlon here on earth
And robe US In their golden dyes
May living hearts this truth attest
And write the lesson as they're blest,
And live so other hearts may see
That love is Immortality.

THE PENSION vET0Es.
They are Discussed at Length in the
HOuSe..Tha Deha1e

WASHINGTON, July THE speaker
laid before the house the twentY-one veto
messages transmitted by the president yester-
day. The first message read was referred.
without comment. to the committee on in
valid pensions, but the disposition of the
next message, vetoing the bill granting a
pension to Edwin l.. Harrington, consumed
mole time.
Mr.. Matson Gnd.) moved its reference.
pending which Mr.. Holmes 0a.). stating that
the reference of the bill would be the end of
1t, moved that its consideration be postponed
until Friday next. Yeas IS, nays l21. Mr..
Burrows (Mich.) moved to amend Mr. Mat
sons motion by adding instructions requir-
ing the committee on invalid pensions to
report the bill and message back on
Friday. Mr.. Watson hoped that this would
not be done. He could see no good reason
why this bill should be singled out for report
on Friday from among the number of vetoed
bills before the committee. Mr.. Burrows
could not see that the committee was in
clined to act very diligently on the veto mes
sage and he did not think the instructions to
report back special bill would greatly inter-
fere with the purpose of the committee as to
the remainder. Mr.. Jackson pa attacked
the veto policy of the president, who, he de-
clared was not actuated by any regard for
the worth and merit of private pension bills
His reason for vetoing the bills was not that
they were unworthy. His reason was appar-
ent on the face of his message. He was in
sympathy with party opposed to pensionipp
Union soldiers, and he did not propose that
any Union soldiers should be pensioned if
he could avoid it. 1t was said that
THE PRESIDENT MEANT RIGHT.
He did mean right, to please a certain element
in the country, but not right to please honest,
loyal people.

Crop Estimate.

New YORK, July Following is q
summary of the Rural New Workers. an
nual crop report:
From over 1000 crop reports from all parts
of the country, the Rural New Yorker con-
cludes that the winter wheat crop is, on the
whole, good, the probable yield being 295, OO0,-
600 bushels, against 212, 600 900 in 1885, with a
slight increase in acreage. Spring wheat has
been considerably injured by drouth and
bhghts. The yield will probably be lao, 00O,-
GOO bushels, against 145,00O,O0O last year.
The total wheat crop will probably be 1885,
OOO0oO bushels, against 100000 last year.
In oats there has been q slight increase in
acreage; the crop has been considerably in
jured by drouth and insect pests, and will
probably yield 60O,0Oe,OOO bushels against
$4,000, GOO bushels in 1885. OF rye and bar
ley there will be excellent crops, on slightly
increased area. There is a good stand of
corn, and the outlook indicates a fine crop of
early potatoes. The crop will be heavy, and
late potatoes are promising, especially in the
West.

this morning fire was discovered in Bryant

suburb of this city. There is no fire de-
partment in the town, but bucket brig

cope successfully with the flames. but the
wind was against them and the store was
soon in ashes. The postoffice was stu
ated on the ground floor and its contents
were destroyed The postoffice flames in
the meantime had spread to the buildings
On either side of the dry goods store. which
were occupied by the various tradesmen,
and they. too, were burned to the ground
A residence on the opposite side of the
