The Reform Club, of New York has
offered prize of $3.50 for the best
practical paper on Our Local Interests
in Tariff Reform, to be printed in any
daily, weekly or other newspaper in the
United States before September of the
current year. The prize is offered for
the purpose of encouraging study into
the depressing effects of war taxes in
special localities, and paper must dis
cuss the bearings of the tariff on the
industry of the particular locality in
which it is printed, whether its popu-
lation be farmers, artisans or others.
The newspaper which prints the sue
cessful article will receive in addition
an award of 800. Nearly all our
Democratic exchanges are filled these
days with facts on the tariff, and many
of them discuss with notable vigor the
bearings of war taxes on the industries
amid which they are issued. The
weekly Democratic press, in particular,
is doing earnest work in this direction,
and it is sincerely to be trusted that
some earnest accurate and truth tell
ing young Democrat may carry off the
prize Register

A LABOR JOURNALS OPINION.

The question is often asked: What
is the meaning of the triangle worn by
the Knights of Labor?' The base line
signifies production, the line on the
right distribution, and the line on the
left consumption. These lines of equal
length, that these three great divisions
of labor must be equal to one another
to maintain an equilibrium of prosper
ity., AS it now is, our labor system is
violation of the natural laws of con-
sumption and production. Under our
present system, labor has brought pro-
duction to the highest point, aud there
it stops. 1t neither distributes nor con-
Sumes. This is tho origin of the labor
troubles.
Production accumulates not beyond
the needs of the consumer, but beyond
the ability of the consumer to obtain
or purchase. Just here is where the
short sightedness of capital prevails.
Capital cuts down the wages of the
producer so that he is unable to enter
the field as a consumer. Production
accumulates and capital eventually
shuts down and cuts off production, in
flicting a double injury upon the pro-
Queer, first, by depriving him of the
power to purchase, next of the means
to live, while excess of production or
accumulation slowly depletes itself.
Wisdom would, by enlarged wages, en-
able the producer (labor) to enter the
market as a consumer, and thus increase
the demand for the fruits Of his own
toll. BY this line Of policy capital
would readily increase its own produc-
tiveness and create market for its own
wares. Journal of United Labor, X.

TnE Republican Senators who arc
members of the Judiciary committee
are in no hurry to make report on the
nomination of Mr.. Fuller for Chief
Justice of the United States. Still
the repoOt will be all right when it is
made, because they can find no reason
for Its being otherwise, and as the Su-
preme Court adjourned on Monday un-
til next October, there is no particular

IT is amusing to sec how conidant
the different anti-ring aspirants for Of

work in grand style on Tuesday. Every

an expression of sterling Democracy.
Democratic law is laid down with free,
bold hand that challenges the admira-
ton of even its enemies. The admin

viewed in all its fearless honesty, its
numerous great reforms pointed out
and applauded to the echo. His mes
sage is endorsed through and through

Has in so short period gained the rep

WISCONSIN CENTRAL Line.
From a comparatively unknown factor
in the commercial world. it has been
transformed to an independent, infiuen-
tial, grand Through Route, with mag
Rlficent depots, superb equipment, and
unsurpassed terminal facilities. Through
careful catering to details, it has won
for itself reputation for selidity safety,
convenience and attention to its patrons
second to no railroad in the country.
Pullman sleepeFs, models of palatial
comfort, dining cars in which the cuisine
and general appointments are up to the
highest standard, and coaches especially
built for this route, are among the chief
elements which, have contributed
towards catering successfully to dis
cfimtnating public. Located directly on
its line, between Minneapolis and st.
