Workmen's advocate. (New Haven, Conn.) 1883-1891, 1888-10-13

and their load made lighter; Those
men, who were to break the shackles
which bound the toilers- where, oh
where have they flown to: Are they
dead or sleeping
Nary one.
Where is the great and honest Moran,
who was once chairman of the town
committee: He who Rugged to his
manly breast the beloved charter Of the
Land and Labor Club. and who said he
would defend it while life lastcdt Where,
oh where is hc$ In the ranks Of the
Cleveland and Thurman "tarltl reform
rrs. And the tulero ar" left 10 slave
on,
And Hume, the whilom District Mas
ter Workman Of the Noble and Holy
Order Of the Knights of Labor by grace
OF the immaculate Terence where Is
he; mistaken in his firm conviction
that Labor shall hunt rabbits with fer
rcts, he has again sacrificed east and
| comfort and permitted the democratic
wing Of the hated capitalist party to
nominate him for the Legislature, where
| he can once more, perchancc, defend
| the cause Of fcrrets in burning words Of
brilliant 0ratory. The nottingham
shall not be compelled to hunt rabbits
with dog and gun if honest endeayor
can force the Ferret Bill.
! Where, oh where is the bright, versa
tile and ever changrful GOerlng, Orcc
candidate for aldermaniC hOnOrs on the
labor ticket Of the ninth ward He is
now member Of the Harugari Lieder-
tafeI, and can always be found thought
ful and clipper, in the rooms Of the so
Ciety Saturday evening and Sunday af-
ternoon discussing '22 for vi. An
but his political bias? Why is he clos
eted with n, d. Sperry? Because he is
in favor Of protection and free whskey.
George went to Middletown recently,
and spent $l5 in favor of that poor wage

William, we are ION to you also; we
mean YOU of the forge and hammer
Time was William, when you were a
"straight' labor man. But to see you
monkeying with "demoCratic' cony"n-
tions leaves a doubt in our mind, Will
| liam.
Where, oh where Is the Spencerian
philosopher of the Tenth ward he of
the giant intellect and close of mouth.
whose only love was the land tax the
DRY, who sat up late at nigh trying to
solve the social enigma? We are afraid
that Mr.. Smith became SO confused by
the riddle that the only way he saw out
of the difficulty was to follow the for
tunes Of Cleveland and his tariff rem
edy. And thus. he passed out from the
labor cause like bright and beautiful
dream.
And the dull Socialists who, in their
stone blind ignorance, could not see the
etfulgent beauty of land-tax jack-pud-
dings or appreciate the picturesque pa
triotism of the immaculate demo
cratic" ward politics of the Troup, DALEY
and Tommy Sullivan gimocracy-where
are they? Why, the billiards. They are
still harping on the monstrous lie that
the workingman is robbed of the prod
uct of his labor, forsooth, when every
body knows he gets all he is entitled tC
in wages, and enjoys the great and glor-
ious privilege of offering his brain and
muscle to the highest bidder with few
takers. Workingmen, beware of the
Socialists Stick to your bosses, politi
cal and industrial, and if that dom
bring bread, butter and bliss on earth il
will at least prepare you for the delect
able Elysium on the other side of Jordan
