A QUESTION OF LABOR AND WAGE:

A QUESTION OF LABOR AND WAGES.
Discuss the subject of free trade
from any standpoint you may, you
will land at the same point-labor.
There is right where it strikes every
time, and it is logical impossibility
to avoid it. Free trade means the
bringing of home labor down to the
low level Of cheap foreign labor.
1t means just what it says-free and
open competition between the Am
erican workingman and the half
paid laborers of England. Now
here is a plain business proposition:
Can goods manufactured by mechan-
les earning an average OF $3.50 per
day be sold in free competition with
goods made by men working for
an average of certainly not more
than 81 per day? If not, what are
the free traders going to do about
it if they succeed in removing the
protective tariff?

AS to-day is the Fourth of July,

concert for the benefit of the Sailors
Orphanage at Liverpool. 1t was q
pleasant affair, the music was good,
and the recitations, with one or two
exceptions, were well delivered, but
the hit of the evening was made by
a young Welsh sailor, who sang and
gave a series of limitations in q
peculiarly droll manner. The pro.
grammes for the concert were solo
by auction and several pounds were
taken that way, while a collection
taken up added still more to the

BASE BALI.
The Hannibal Team Oatplayed by
the Browns-Base Ball Notes

Only the base ball cranks found
seats on the benches at Sports
mans Park Thursday afternoon.
The day was a beautiful one, but
the average friend of base ball
could not reconcile himself to the
combination of frost weather in the
morning and base ball in the after
noon. He felt it was too cold,
whether it was or not. 1t was
ladies' day, too, but only a meagre
attendance of the fair g marked
the game.
At 4 o'clock the game was call
ed, with Dodge in the box for Mex
leo. One after another he moved
the visitors down, holding them to
four scant hits. The Browns had
no difficulty in hitting the Han
nibal twirler and only excellent
fielding kept the Browns tallies
down to seven. Three nen-ex-
pensiye errors d~isfgure the home
steam's score. Withal, it was one
of the best games ever played in
Mexico. The score is appended.

FROM LOSS OF BLOOD.
Lee Bolts, a Five Year Old Boy,
Dies From Bleeding at
the Nose.

Horatio Bolts five year old son,
Lee, died Thursday at the home
of its parents, north of this city,
from epistaxis, or bleeding from
the nose. The child's nose bled
for several hours and was finally
stopped, but not until the boy was
SO reduced in strength as to make
recovery impossible. 1t is said
that before dissolution, the little
fellows heart beat at the rate OF
two hundred pulsations per minute.
Epistaxis is the most common OF
all hemorrhages and at the same
time the less frequently fatal.
The records of medical science
show the fatal cases not to have
been confined especially to the
young. All ages have suffered
equally. The present case is the
FIRST ever known in this section Of
Missouri.

persuade the other to withdraw.
Some one proposed that, if we
could not settle it any other way,
we cast lots, and acting on the i'm
pulse OF the moment, we consented
audit was done. The only question
thus determined was which of us
should withdraw. There was no
agreement whatever as to deliver
ing u respective delegation, nor
a there any money consideration
in it. That thousand dollar story
is simply a fabrication. It fell to
my lot to withdraw and [ did it,
but 1 can assert with a clear con
science that [ did not receive either
directly or indirectly, n cent.
Ny public life is an open page-all
men can read it. 1 had an ambi-
ton to represent the people Of this
district in Congress, but I defy any
enc to say that throughout the
three contests [ was guilty of a
single dishonorable or disreputa-
BILE act.
In consenting to cast lots as to
which of US should withdraw, /
confess that my deliberate judg-
ment is that I committed an error.
There was no moral turritude in
volved in tit was simply a rash
and ill-advised act. In consent
ing to with draw at all I would
have committed an error. [
should have gone down with
my 81 votes. Fer not having
done so l may be subject to crit
icism and alse for not having
called together the 81 delegates in
structed for me and discuss the
matter with them.
But in considering the matter,
the surrounding circumstances must
be taken into consideration. The
Information that came to US about
the combination that had been
formed had a very depressing eff
feet on some of my friends as well
as myself, and recollection of
former contests furnished no con-
ISOLATION. In 1884 and 1886 I had
to contend with every man in the
race. This year 1 had to do the
same. I had always tried to get
a primary election throughout the
entire district SO as to let the peo-
pie vote directly on the PROPOSE
ton, and 1 had proposed that the
candidates remain away from the
convention and leave the delegates
to make a nomination free from
opportunities on their part. AL
these propositions were rejected.
In the. other conventions l had
seen combinations formed against
me on every proposition, even III
the selection of officers of the con
vention, and being informed thai
the same was done this time, ir
sheer desperation l did that which
my deliberate judgment convince:
me was a mistake. Iregret it very
much, not only on my own account
but on account of my many warn
friends. This support has beer
such as any man might we'll fee
proud of, and I appreciate thei
friendship as much as if it had re
suited in sending me to Congress;
a dozen times, and can never ceas'
to regret an ill-advised and hast,
act on my part which might b.
construed as indicating a lack o
regard for their friendship an,
support. Respectfully,
ELIJAH ROBINSON.
