TnR Ldl or SIGNAL, THE woRKINGMEN' s

printed in its editorial columns the follow
ing: The men who made up the Chicago
ConYentt IN appear to have had but little
regard tor the wishes of organized labor.
The non ination of Mr.. Harrison was a
genuine surprise to the organized working
men Of this State, because their attitude
toward that gentleman is well understood,
and 1t lid not seem possible that Conven-
tlon Of sane men would inyite conflict with
larg number Of voters in an extremely
doubtful State by naming a candidate SC
obno1 ious. The readere Of this paper will

Ex-Governor Isaac II. Bromley in the
July number of the North American Re-
vielC attempts TO answer Mr.. Rapsher's
article In the May number entitled "Dang-
erous Trusts" Mr.. Bromley is one Of the
ablest corporation lawyers in the country
and he presents his side of the question
with great force and brill l'ancy, but we
think the reader will search in vain for
anything like a satisfactory reply to Mr..
Rapsher's charges and complication OF
facts. The people of this country too well
understand the greed and methods of mon
opolies to be misled by such flashing gener.
alities as Mr.. Bromley presents. He recog.
nIzes Mr.. Rapsher's abilities as a writer in
these complimentary words: "My argu
ment contains nothing to thrill tie reader
with the pleasurable warmth impaired by
the glowing periods of Mr.. Rapsher," Read

waters are divided into two channels by

distinct river beds for the next two or three

leap with almost lightning speed, ms
