Greed Raymond, Chairman of the Cali

enthusiasm. Why" said he, you never
saw anything like it. We were full of en-
thusiasm for Blaine when we left home,
and we have been getting fuller of it ever
since. If we had stopped at every town
where we have been asked since leaving
home we would not have reached here be-
fore next week. The whole country is
rising and demanding Blaine. He cannot
refuse. We will not ask his consent. We
will nominate him, and he must obey his
country. We have not had line, not a
word, not an intimation from Mr.. Blaine
beyond the letters which have been pub
lished to the country. We do not intend

is to obey when his party and country call

THE contest between the brewers and
their employers has opened at the East.
The men are locked out until they consent
to comply with the condition of employ
ment specified by the employer. This
is simply, retiracy from any organization
that claims the right to dictate to en-
ployers the terms of the contract they shall
make with their employees. There is no
reduction in the rates of wages, no increase
in the hours of labor. 1t may be said that
the employers, by this coercive action. are
using the same methods against their en-
ployeS, to which they object when invoked
by the workers. But the reply to this is
that they act but defensively, and have
been driven to association to that end by
the dictation of the Trade Unions. and
this is sufficient answer. The brewers are
not claiming the right to dictate to their
men, but they do assert the right them
selves to name the terms upon which they
will invest their capital and "run" their
business. This is an inalienable right and
one that cannot be denied them. The
brewers Will win in this struggle, and they
should.

THE STEVENS MEMORIAL.

A laudable movement is on foot among
the railroad employees to erect suitable
memorial structure in memory of A. ].
Stevens, late Master Mechanic of the Gen.
trail Pacific Railroad Company 1t is not
only commendable from the point OF view
that honors that distinguished mechanician
and inventor, but it is deserving of en-
enlargement because of the influence of
such structures upon the civilization of the
period. 4 memorial arch, chapel in
honor of an illustriouS name, statue of
man distinguished for his services TO his
fellow man-these in psblie places, IN the
very face of busy marts, are constant
preaching, teaching influences. They en-
courage worthy ambition, they give hope
to other lives and comfort laborers for the
welfare of men, with the reflection that
society is not ungrateful and humanity is
not forgetful. The monument to worth
standing in the public place, is an incen-
tive to duty doing; it is a re6ner of public
taste; it is an object that educates the
eve of the multitude, and directs the
thought OF the masses TO the better and
nobler works Of mans hand. Il is to be
hoDed, therefore, that the suggested
memorial referred to will be erected; that
the mites of contribution viii be speedy

The Ricpest Story Yet.

We have observed several wonderful stories
of late respecting the skill of the Chinese
executioners, who, it is said can strike off the
heads OF their victims SO skillfully that the
poor fellows themselves never discover their
loss until a moment or two after they are
dead. We recall to mind, however, the story
of a German executioner who far surpassed
the Chinese in professional dexterity. Upon
one occasion it happened that criminal who
was condemned to death had singular itch
ing TO play at nine pins, and he implored
permission TO play once more at his favorite
game before be died. Then, ne said, he would
submit TO his fate without a murmur
The judge, thinking there could be no harm
in humorinG him, granted his last prayer,
and upon arriving at the place of execution
he found everything prepared for the game,
the pins being set up and the bowls all ready.
He commenced his favorite sport with enthu-
siasm. After awhile the sheriff, observing
that he showed no inclination to desist, made
a sign to the executioner to strike the fatal
blow while he stopped for bowl. The ex-
ecutioner did SO, but with such exquisite dex-
terity that the culprit did not notice or feel
it. He thought, indeed, that cold breath
of air was blowing on his neck and drawing
himself back with a shrug, his head dropped
forward into his hands. He naturally sup
posed that it was a bowl which he had
graspeG, and Selling it firmly, rolled it at the
pins All of them fell, and the head was
heard to exclaim, as it rebounded from the
further wall: 'Hurrahl I've Won the game"

Patent Medicines in Berlin.

The Berlin police authorities have long
had a sharp eye on the widely advertised
patent medicines, many of which have
been officially analysed and found to be
both inefficacious and excessively dear

nounced. in 1884, -twenty-three, and in
1855 thirty more Against sixty-one of
the compourders of these benefactions Of

Advice to Young Men.

And then, remember, you have to work.
Whether you handle pick or a pen, a wheel
barrow or set Of books, digging bitches or
editing paper, ringing an auction bell or
writing funny things, You must work II
you look around you, you will see that the
men who are most able TO live the rest Of
their lives without work are the men that
work the hardest
Don't be afraid of killing yourself with
work. 1t is beyond your power to do that.
Men cannot work so hard as that on the
sunny side OF thirty. They die sometimes,
but it's because they quit work at p. III and
don't go home until 2 a. m. It's the interval
that kills Work gives an appetite for meals;
it lends solidity to the slumbers; il gives the
appreciation Of holiday.
There are men who do not work, but the
world is not proud Of them. ID does not even
know their names; it simply speaks Of them
as old So-and-So's boys. Nobody likes them,
nobody hates them; the great, busy world
doesn't even know that they are there. So
find out what you want to be and do, take off
your hat and make dust in the world The
buster you are the less deviltry you VIII be
apt to get into, the sweeter will be your
sleep, the brighter and happier your holt
days, and the better satisfied will the world
be with you--Burlington Hawkeye.

How Corks Are Made.

The business in the cork line is done by the
twenty or thirty factories of the United
States The crude methods in vogue at the
birth of this Pittsburg industry, and for
many years after, for cutting the corks have
gradually been displaced by new devices in
machinery to meet the growing demands
upon the trade Every cork manufactured
must go through three to four operations be
fore it is ready for theJnarket, and all these
operations are performed by machines in
geniously devised for tine various objects
First the rough material is punched into
cylinders then tapered, after which the corkS
pass into the hands of girls to be assorted,
and after passing through all these hands are
sold to the jobbers at from two to three cents
gross. By reason OF these great improve
ments in machinery single machine pro-
duces from $50 to 200 gross of corks per day
In Europe cork making is still done by hand:
and twenty gross is large days work for
the trained cork cutter. When the crude
cork reaches the factory it is boiled or
steamed, then put into a damp place where
it may dry out gradually; otherwise it would
be too harsh ard hard for use After weeks
gradual drying it is ready for the cutter
The refuse from cork making is utilized in a
great variety of ways, but does not yield the
cost of the crude material One of the
products of the refuse is linoleum. Another
is life preservers. The shavings are utilized
in making beds, and in many other ways.-
