One of our Republican exchanges
says: "There are now nearly 1900 ,OOC
organized wage-workers in the land. The
Amalgamated Association of Iron and
6teel-workers control so, 600 men. Cleve-
land will not receive many votes from
these people" Verify? These million
and half toilers will probably vote for
Harrison, who wanted to bayonet the
railroad strikers, and whom Mr.. Car.
negie and the other protected millionaires
uphold-the millionaires who in spite
of their protected monopolies would scale
wages in the face of a tariff which
adds fifty per cent. to their
gains, but not q cent to wages !:
and in the face of orders unprecedented
in the history Of the country. These
men will nearly all vote for Mr.. Cleve-
land where they are not coerced by the
protected monopolies who want General
Harrison to order out the army to shoot
down strikers, and who want General
Harrison because he keeps the tariff
where it is, with altar of roses free and
salt taxed at one hundred. per cent.
woollen shirts seventy-fve per cent,
blankets sixty-seven per cent, and 80 on
all along the line.

THE most prominent of the trust COM
binations which are running the Repub-

formed from their wealth. The 500, ,OOO,-

any of these trusts can crush

Good, Bad and Indifferent Games

STOCKTON, CAL, July 15.-The Stock
tons and Greenhood and Morans played
poor ball to day; the home club doing oy
far the poorest work. Selnas' place was
filed by Pache, owing to an injury
received before the game, and
Sweeney went to right in the fourth
inning on account of having finger
nail taken off by pop fly. Whitehead
was off in pitching, and went to sholt in
the ninth, and Sweeney was called in to
occupy the box. The errors were many,
and all proved costly, and before the
game closed many of the spectators de-
parted. Harper did splendid
work, but one hit being made
up to the eighth inning. In the sixth
inning, two singles and four errors gave
the GREENWOOD and Morans five runs and
in the eighth, two singles and two more
errors added five additional runs. Score !:

largely from the fatigue of last week and
her illness of yesterday. Baby Mckee

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Randall's cor

of the strength lost by him on Friday.
Since Friday night there has been no re-

are much encouraged. Mr.. Randall had
good sleep last night and he has rested
easily all day, dosing off into short maps.
His three doctors had consultation in
the afternoon, and DIR. Martin shortly
afterwards returned to Philadelphia
Both Doctors Lincoln and Mallon assure d
the family that the patient was better
than he had been for two days, and
should improvement continue he may be
removed from the city the latter part of
this week. His case, however, is still
considered very dangerous, and it will
take long time to recuperate his dimin-
ished vitality. The nourishment given
him was slightly increased to-day, and
he was allowed to chew some beef and
swallow thu juice.

AGAINST HIM.
Labor In Indiana Forming Anti.
Harrison Clubs.

Ed. F. Gould, Secretary of the Distric
Assembly, Knights of Labor, of which
this city is the center, is in receipt O.
numerous letters from prominent mem
bers of the organization in all the East
ern States, regarding General Harrison's
attitude toward the striking railroad en-
ployees in 1877. Several men are il
quest of affidavits in support of the state.
ment that Harrison asserted that ninety
cents day was enough for a Iaborine
man, and that if he were Governor he
would order the strikers to return tc
work, and shoot them down if they die
not obey.
All of the laboring classes appear to be
very much offended at Harrison's nomi-
nation, and letter from New York par
ties declares that if the statements at.
tributed to him are substantiated he will
lose the entire labor vote of that State.
The utmost activity characterizes this
class here, and they are taking the pre-
liminary steps in the formation OF anti.
Harrison clubs here and elsewhere in the
State. One club, organized by J. T.
Hudson, consists of thirty members, all
of whom voted for Blaine in 1884. Clubs
composed of telegraphers, another OF rail
road employees and another of porkpack.
ers, have been organized within the past
two days, and each OF these is composed
in great part of Republicans. No other
test of membership is required than a
pledge to vote against Harrison.
The opposition has assumed the same
form as that in 1885, when Harrison was
a candidate for reelection to the Senate.
and each of the labor organizations will
pass resolutions against him at their
regular meeting.
The objections urged were that Harri-
son was the attorney of the Western
Union Telegraph Company and also Of
the Union Pacific Railroad Company
that he was not in sympathy with labor,
and that all of his acts had been shaped
against the labor interests of the country.

If, therefore, we seek the reason
for the peoples action in 1884 we
find it easily. Mr.. Blaine has recently
recognized it, and with the shrewdness
of practiced statesman left the field to
more ardent and short-siahted aspirants.
He sees that the country, with large COM
mon sense, will refuse to commit the for
tunes ofthe republic to the personal am
bition of any man, and SO with
draws. The other Republican
leaders will learn by the votes
of November that party which
cannot represent the whole country shall
not represent any part of it, and that the
sectionalism which coins the dead and
dread hostilities of the past into political
capital is regarded as crime that will
ultimate, unless rebuked, in the very
disunion which million men died to
prevent. .-[New York Herald, (Ind.)
