GREENvILLE, S. c., November 29.-The
Greenv1ue Daily News prints a letter re-
Gently received by its editor from General
Harrison and published by his permission.
It was written in reply to a letter urging
that southern commercial interests would
be relieved from obstruction caused by
doubts and fears regarding the southern
policy of TIE coming administration, if Gen
eral Harrison would make some general as
surances of his purpose to follow a conser-
vative course towards the south and is as
follows:
INDIANAPOLIS, EED., November "a,
To A. h. Williams, Esq, GrssnVile, S. C..
My DEAR SIR:-Your letter Of November
10 has been received. L az not ready to
make any public utterance upon any publ O
question. Every day / am solicited by
special correspondents of the press to speak
upon this subject or that, but 1 have invar-'
i6bly declined, and to your appeal Tor some
expression upon the question that interests
you, 1 must for the present make the same
answer. understand that you have yourself
been satisfied with the expressions made by.
me in my public Dtterances to visiting dele
cations during the campaign. The surprise
and disappointment Which some of your!
people have felt over the result has passed
away, RId they give some eBim Thought to-
the situation, / think they VIII be as muCn
surprised as 1 am that they should inl
thought or speech lmpute to me unfrlendkl~
ness toward the south. The policies IN leRls-
latiOn advised to the republican party, be-
Heve are wholesome for the whole country
and if those who in their hearts believe with
US upon these questions, could act with US,
some other questions that give you local
concern would settle themselves. Very
sruly yours, BENJAMIN HARRISON.

The Russian religion does not seem TO
have much effect upon the morals OF the

the nobility are VIGOROUSLY prohigate,
corrupt, and dishonest. The chastity Of

far back as tradition runs, while the mer-
chants, as / have said elsewhere, have the

AFTER THE STORM.
ATLANTIC CRY, n. J., November 29.-The
storm has abated and the sun is now shin
ing brightly. A survey Of the situation
shows that no such destruction to property
on this beach has been known since the in
corporation Of the city. Hundreds of prop
erty owners from Philadelphia and other
localities have come down fearing their
property would be swept away by water.
The tide receded and the sea, under the in
fuenc5 of a northwest wind, was beaten
down, but the result, especially in the lower
portions OF the city, is one of almost COM
Dlete destruction. The work of the waves
was quick and complete and the individual
losses are numerous. In TIE excursion
house district the destruction of property
is enormous, although unexpected as the
survey shows that for twenty years the beach
in that section has changed bat little and
danger from storms was not anticipated.
The beach YVES lined with thousands of resi-
dents and visitors, including photographers
and artists sketching the ruins. Many OF
the sufferers by the storm are people OF
moderate means and their losses viii be ge-
Verely felt in the coming winter.

In answer to question delicately put
by law student, Mr., Hadley said it was
easier TO form trust under protective
tariff than under free-trade.
Being asked his opinion as to whether
it were not fact that capitalists having
money to invest were generally the ones
to favor private enterprise as opposed to
collective, or government, enterprise,
the lecturer parted by saying that he
would rather have the question asked
without the tail-piece."
Mr.. Hadley said he had not sufficient
technical knowledge to answer the ques-
ton of government control Of telegraph.
| The deduction might he made in view of
! previous remark that he would not
trust the best government he ever saw to
run the Industries Of the country, that
he might trust the United States govern
ment with some Industries Of which he
had technical knowledge.
The meeting was adjourned shortly
after four O'Clock. 1t was announced
that probably Laurence Gronlund, au
thor of the "Co-operative Common
wealth. would be in the city next Sun
day and make an address.

Union No. I, New York, is about to
vote $50 in support Of the San Francisco
strike.
The strike in San Francisco seems to
have strengthened the Unions, but the
point seems not to have been gained, as
there are still many out of work, and
many bosses employ scabs. Union "A,
Of San Francisco, proposes to ask the st.
Louis Convention for a levy of special
assessment Of fifty cents per member to
establish Herewith fund for the Unions
of the Pacific coast, to enable them to
carry on an effective Spring campaign.

gates. A ball has been arranged for that
occasion, which will take place March 10.

and promises to be ready for work in the
coming spring.

In the legislature of New York two
bills were introduced in the interest of
bakers: one to prohibit vending and cart

Last Sundays session of the Trades
Council was not as well attended as the

than routine business to occupy the at

the Typographical Union introduced the
subject of the Pennsylvania miners
strike. A delegation from the *. OF H.
were present to urge the CLAIMS OF the
miners. The Council decided to send
some of their funds, and appointed a
committee to make an appeal to the va
rious trades unions. The following cir
cular was issued by the committee the
next day.

SUNDAY LECTURES.
A short but Interesting Session with
Prof. IIadley.

Prof. IIadley.
The general comment upon last Sun
days lecture at Trades Council Hall was
expressive of satisfaction. 1T was a
short session, and makes lis the more
anxious for next Sunday to come, re-
marked one of the plebs.
Thomas j. Flood, delegate to the
Trades Council from Cigarmakers Union,
80, presided, and introduced Prof. A. 7.
Hadley, of Yale, who lectured upon the
subject of TRUSTS and Pools" His dis
course was mainly descriptive, and as
such, instructive. Mr.. Hadley ventured
some opinions upon the effects of trusts,
which he thought did away with honest
competition and presented all the dan
gers of monopoly. During his remarks
Mr.. Hadley expressed his idea of Social
ism by saying that it was nothing more
thad police government. He would not
trust the best government he ever saw to
run the industries of the country. At
the same time he wanted the means to
place responsibility and thought they
would develop themselves.
After Mr.. liadley had spoken for nearly
an hour. Mr. Charles Stodel asked him
"whether the people would derive as
much benefit if the postal system were
managed by private concerns" The an
swer was rather evasive: 1T could he
more economically done" was Mr.. Had
ley reply.
To the question: is it for the financial
benefit of members of trusts to form such
organizations and prevent competitions
Mr.. Hadley answered in the affirmative
and requested the questloner to MAKE
further remarks following up the idea
In response to the call the queStlonel
suggested that if it was beneficial Il
members of trusts to form such organi
cations and destroy competition itwoult
also be beneficial to the various trades t
SO organize, and that eventually tn
whole people could benefit 10y being co
operatively organized and competition
and profit excluded.
