AhONhAo ~ DAANA' lCtQ 10 hQuilnlStru
tion districts and representatives seated III
the convention who had no legal right tC
seats therein, and representatives who were
elected denied seats in the body. Clerks IL
the general Office were engaged in manipu
iating records and selecting local assemblies
that were known to be opposed to the ad
ministration, in order that steps might be
taken to prevent them from having repre-
sentation in the convention.
Regarding his expulsion by the executive
board, he says: 1.-The constitution disquali.
fies interested parties, and with all the brszer
eifrontery that they are endowed with, they
surely will not claim that they we're not in
terested, incompetent and unfit to sit in
Judgment when they themselves were the
accused Williams.
1.-THE general assembly ordered the ex.
pulsion of all cigarm.@ers unless they sew
cred their connection with their trade
unions, but such a storm Of Indignation
arose from the outrageous and unlawful ac-
ton of the general assembly, that even those
who were instrumental in passing that reso-
luton and the power TO enforce it, recog.
nized the illegal and unlawful position that
it placed them in before the order, that they
allowed it to become a dead letter rather
than to enforce it.
Respecting the statement of Powderly that
he Barry had admitted falsehoods charged
against him, but had refused to retract
them, Barry says "the statement is in keep
ing with other malicious falsehoods pub
lishe6 by the general executive board
The desire of the delegates to the general
assembly Of the Knights of Labor to con.
tinue T. V. Powderly as their chief has cen
expressed to him formally. The seven dele
gates who represent the Canadian assemblies
called upon him and asked him to accept the
office once more.
He gave them to understand that he would
do so, providing he could choose his own ad-
visors on the general executive board
Everything indicates that be will be given
his wish, and there is now only difference
of opinion regarding the way that snail be
done One plan is for him to choose eight
names, four of which will be selected by the
assembly. Another plan contemplates the
nomination of four men; if any be rejected
new names shall be presented until the mum
Der is complete
Under any circumstances, Mr.. Powderly
will undoubtedly continue In office and will
choose his own cabinet. Canada wants to be
represented on the general executive board;
the south has like desire, and movement
is ON foot looking to the selection of some
representative business man.
1t is reported that proposition looking to
the formation of an entirely new constitu.
ton has been made to the general assembly
and is being considered by the proper com
mittee.
As there is strong feeling in favor of
radical revision of the present constitution,
there is little doubt that the new constitution
will have many supporters.
Mr.. Barry has ready another instalment of
his attack on Mr.. Powderly's administration,
and it is said that he will keep up his denun-
citation in the form of long articles for sew
eral days to come

SIGNAL committee, which has been investi-
eating the subject of pauper immigration, is
now in this city. He states that he will
Issue call for the committee to meet in
Washington on the Monday or Tuesday be-
fore congress convenes. Mr.. Ford says that
if his views are adopted the bill to be pre-
sented to congress by the committee will
provide for the appointment of consular in
spectors to every foreign land that sends
large numbers of immigrants to this coun-
try, and these inspectors will be attached to

or material points, thirty, sixty or ninety
days, as may be decided upon before taking
passage, and during that time the inspectors
shall investigate the past lives and records
of tho applicants and then act according to
the finding. II the candidate is honest,
sober and industrious he will receive his
passport and be welcomed to our shores but
if he is found to be a pauper, IN idiot a
criminal or insane; il he is depraved and dis.
solute, or wants to come over in fuIfllme 1T
of contract, he would be rejected.
Mr.. Ford uses some very strong language
in denouncing the wholesale and indiscrim-
mate unregulated immigration which has
become such a crying evil; and also says
that "the importation Of contract labor to
compete with our own workingnen must be
stopped. The bill which the committee will
introduce, will, If passed, put an end to that
evil -

UP SALT RIVER.
sOrroUfuI Journey of the Hooking County,
Ohio, Democracy.

LOGAN, O., Nov. 20. Undoubtedly the
richest parade ever seen in this city was the
one given by the Democracy Saturday even
ing en- route for Salt river. The procession
was preceded by a band Of music, playing
the dead march in saul" In the first car
riage were several prominent men of the
party engaged in drinking and smoking.
This was followed by large omnibus, called
the "Salt River Packet" Charles Rose, and
contained the Logan Dutch glee club. On
the side of the omnibus was this placard
"Salt River Packet, Charles Rose, Dutch
Glee Club Inside Died November 8 From
Too Much Tariff Reform. To be Resurrected
in 1927
There were hundreds in the procession
dressed in fantastic costumes with sticks and
bundles over their shoulders. The process
sion contained many laughable Transparent
cies suitable for the occasion. In the rear OF
the parade was drum corps with muffi ed
drums, playing dead march. 1t certainly
was the most laughable affair that ever took
place in Logan, and was witnessed by the en-
tire population of the city. Wad Gage, the
instigator of the affair, deserves much credit
for the fun afforded the people of Logan.

All Season in the Bchring Sea.
MONTREAL, Nov. 20. A Metlakahtla, b.
c., correspondent says that the Canadians
have been taking seals in Behring sea all the
season unmolested, although the Alaska
Commerce company has made repeated pro
tests to the authorities at Washington in
regard to the matter. The open instructions
from Washington this season are similar to
those issued last year, but the effect is differ
emit Then seren seizures were made; now
none are made.
People generally attribute the present
state Of affairs to the presence of British
cruisers or a change of policy at Washington
in accordance with which secret orders have
been issued to the American cruisers TO let
British vessels alone. The directors of the
Alaska company themselves confess that q
great change has certainly taken place. They
say they cannot understand it, but that if it
continues they will not renew their leases,
which will expire in 1890
