Dear Sir.-Your favor of the 4th in
slant reached me yesterday. ! hasten to
answer the best can the inquiry, "Why
the publication Of the Virginia Reports
has been so delayed" l have answered
this inquiry a hundred times and you
have in your letter shown yourself TO be
aware OF the answer, which is, the de-
lay of the Legislature to appropriate the
necessary funds But l see from the
Sundays Dispatch that the Executive
approval has been just put upon the re-
cent act Of tue General Assembly appro-
priating 50. 900 for the printing and bind
inc of Volumes 50, SO, and 81 of the
Virginia Reports. l have nearly 200
cases reported 10y myself and ready for
the printer. Some opinions contained
in the list of cases to be reported have
not vet been received. Volume 80 has
been let to contract, and Mr.. E. Waddey,
the contractor, will begin TO print within
a few days. | have asked Mr. O'Bannon,
the Superintendent of Public Printing,
to let 50 to contract Immediately. 1t will
suit me best to print two volumes at one
time. And as the copy and the money
are on hand | can see no objection to the
plan. l can suggest no improvement to
be made in the law, unless it were to
place the letting of the contracts OF
printing and binding III the hands OF the
State Reporter, without the Intervention
of the Superintendent OF Public Print
ing, which might expedite matters some
what. Very truly yours, &c,
q. w. HANsBRoUaH,
State Reporter.

THE BREWERS STATEMENT.
An Answer Showing the Basely False
Character Of the Circular Issued
by the Bosses.

NEW YORK, April l, 1883
To Organized Labor, the Public tn
General, and the Press:
We are compelled to answer the
circular of the United States
Brewers Association distributed
to the brewery workmen and the
public on March IS, and explain
TO- the public the true facts of the
case. As far as the brewer bosses
do not repeatedly contradictthem-
selves. we are able to prove as
false each and every assertion
maintained in it by the most in
disputable facts.
Firstly, the bosses assert that
the reason for publishing the cir
.cular was the total lack of uniform
action under the pressure of the
despotic rules of the union in re-
gard to wages as well as to hours
of labor, while later on they make
the assertion, printed in heavy
type, that it is by no means their
intention to impair. in the least.
the present concessions regarding
wages and hours of:labor.
CONTRADICTION NUMBER ONE.
Then we read in the afsrenamed
circular that the bosses fully rec
ognize the right of workmen to
organize themselves, and they ap-
prove of everything that may tend
to the elevation and amelioration
of the condition of workmen; but
in spite of it they refuse to sign a
contract with their workmen as an
organization.
| CONTRADICTION NUMBER TWO.
In the third part Of the circular
the bosses assume and pretend to
be the friends Of personal liberty

monopolies never made such
rapid strides as at the present
time. It is safely within the
mark to say that within FIVE years,
more combinations have been
made against the public interests
than during the whole Of our
national existence. With no in.
crease q progress in that direction
within few years there will not
be . single important article Of
daily consumption. a single neces-
.sary of life, that will not be con-
trolled by syndicate with unlim-
tied power to advance prices to
suit its own purposes. Itrequires
no prophet or the son of a prophet
to predict the results of such con-
troll. The rich will grow richer
and the poor will grow poorer.
The wealth of the country will be
held by the few, and the mass of
the people will have nothing but
continuous struggle for exist
ence. It will be a sad day for the
republic when workingmen must
be satisfied with the bare necessi-
ties of life, without any of its
comforts and decencies. with their
children at labor instead of at
school, with no aspirations for a
better condition on account of the
impossibility of ever reaching
better condition. How far organ
lied labor. while it yet has the
intelligence to organize, will be
the means Of preventing or postA
poning such evils is yet an
unsolved problem. The bitter war
fare which the great monopolies
of'the country have waged against
organized labor, is of itself proof
that they dread its power. Not
long since the manager of a great
railroad company said that he
would not talk with any man who
represented a labor chmbination.
This same railroad company had
for years been in combination
with other railroad companies to
keep up the rates of freight and
travel, to keep down wages, and
to perpetuate the system of un-
equal charges and offensive dis
elimination. All that labor knows
about the power of combination
it learned from capital, and the
results of some recent strikes
show that it has vet much to learn.
