LABOR INTERESTS.

Usefulness Are About FLASHED.
P~ITTsBURG, Oct is. w. T. Lewis, master
workman Of the miners national district as
sembly. Knights Of Labor, is 10 the city. Mr..
Lewis Is one Of the knights whose name has
been prominently mentioned in connection with
ths election for general master workman Of the
order. In an interview he said he would not ac-
eept the Office If rendered him. "If Mr.. Pow
derby desires il. he can be reelected; but I have
understood from him that he would not be .

"Is there any foundation for the charges that
Barry has made abont the orderr'
"Yes, there is truth in what Barry says. but
IL il not proper to have them published. They
are truths that do not concern the public. BY
these truths, I mean the differences existing be-
twesc the officers, the different policies that
they advocated. and so on. These are matters,
however, that should be settled at the General
Assembly. II the order OF the Knights of Labor
cannot reform itself from within, it does not oc-
sur TO me that there can be reform outside or
among those opposed to il. 1t is true that the
order Is reduced in membership. To some
extent the presidential campaign accounts
the dissatisfaction with the methods of the
general officers. real or imaginary, l am not pre-
pared to say. I think, though. that Powderly
has done more to stir up interest Ia labor movs-
ments during the time he has been general mas
ter-workmsu than any other labor leader has
over done. However. l believe that there comes
q time to all labor leaders when their sphere OF
usefulness in any one particular Office comes TO
IN end, not from any fault Of theirs; but from
their position as officers they have necessarily
made enemies by differing with men in princi-
pie, Who, in turn. make this difference q per-
sonal one Powderly, IN this direction, has
stood longer before the people than almost any
labor leader IN this country of national char
acter."

Government Clerks Slow to Respond to De-
mands-Funds FooIishly Used.
Washington special to Boston Journal.
The fact is that . great many Of the Demo
cratic clerks are convinced that Harrison will be
elected, and they do not care to place themselves
IN a position where they cannot properly appeal
to the principles of the civil-service rules under
the next administration Some OF the older
democratic clerks, who, formerly, were very
active politicians, have decided not to take any
part In politics this campaign for that reason,
and have purposely exhausted their annual
leaves Of Absence go that there is not the same
excuse TO 60 home to vote that sometimes ex-
ists.
The Democratic national COMMITTEES has
raised q very large fund, but Democrats who
ought to be in a position to know say that it has
been expended in a very foolish and improvident
manner, and that, az q matter OF fact. at the end
OF the campaign the national treasury is pretty
low In funds. For this reason, Chairman Bar
mum Is making this last desperate and open
appeal to federal ofice-holders. Alsadine Dem
ocrat says that Brce has really spent a large
sum In Illinois. under the absurd notion that
there was some chance for the Democratic party
to secure the electoral vote of that State. Brice
mas besides spent large sums in many equally
foolish ways. A great deal of money mas
been given to minor newspapers and TO
newspapers which could not be reasonably OK
pected by any experienced man to be Of serv-
ice to the party. The national committee has
49, - oNsN -
ming OF the campaign, and has put q great deal
OF money into it; not SO much, however. that
the sheriff did not find il necessary to take pos.
session Of the establishment on account OF some
unpaid paper bills. and he is understood to be
still at the establishment, although willing, and
doubtless glad, that the national committee will
undertake the responsibility of paying it's cur
rent bills until after the election. Large sums
OF money have been devoted, also, to sending
cuts and illustrations to many Democratic pa
pers TO aid, az it was supposed, in the campaign.
This will explain why SO many country Demo-
cratic newspapers which have not been accus-
toned to furnish cuts, and which, 1t 10 well
known, have not the facilities for making Thorn,
or the means TO pay for them have been illus
trsted during the campaign with a series Of
ssrikingly uniform Illustrations. Some of the
Democratic papers in the West have recently
rebelled against printing them when it was dis.
covered that Mast was tho artist who designed
them. They cannot forgive Mast for the man.

LOCAL STATE ISSUES.

The Infamous Gsrrylnander and the Insane
Asylum Prostitution.
Indiana Advocate.
Wa have at least two local State issues that
loom mp above all national questions but one.
We care not a fig for tariff, or b.nks, or the dis
t-ibution OF Offices, but We do hole askpara-
mount to all other questions now before the
American people the right to vote anywhere and
everywhere, and have that vote counted. We
may prate as We please about the protection OF
the home-this is the paramount protection. II
a citizen may not vote. he cannot protect his
force. Except this. We have two
State issues which appeal to our
humanity as well as to our patriotism, and over
shadow ev erything else. First of these, be-
cause it demands immediate relief. is the treat
msnt of the insane. Any family 10 liable TO be
represented in the Hospital for the Insane at
any moment Shall we tolerate the abuses now
practicec in that institution and Endorsed by the
Democratic party-not by Democrats, as such.
unless by their vote they approve. but by the
organization as such, In its attempts to shield
the guilty parties. Next. but hardly second, is
the liquor question. The saloons of Indiana
have the people of Indiana by the throat The
only ADEQUATE remedy Is absolute prohibition,
enforced by such PENALTIES a. nnforce our laws
against burglary, and arson, and murder-for
the nlooon-Eeeper is worse than q nero
murderer. He dsbauches and ruins his victim
before he kills But, ss repeatedly construed
by our Supreme Court, prohibition Is impossible
In Indiana without a change of our Constitution.
while, by the entire court sustaining the Baxter
law of 1873, local option is constitutions. For
tunately these questions are not complicated
with national politics az all. We may vote for
our favorits for President, and We RAY express
our wishes on the tariff, and We may follow our
party on Governor. and we may yet emphssizs
our views on the liquor traffic by voting for the
legislative candidate that will give us the best
legislation possible under our present Constitu-
ton. and will be most certain TO turn the rascals
out of the Hospital for the Insane. which. in
stead of being an asylum for the unfortunate,
has become q den Of thieves. There Is no party
politics in this 1t rises above party. 1t is not
the province OF this paper to advocate this party
or that. but every good man OF every party, and
every good paper, will advocate this reform.

Ladies Arrested for wipins Out Saloons.

Grand Forks ID. T. Special.
There trooped off the train here to-day, IN
charge of an officer. about q dozen ladies who
were arrested at Thompson for ''going through"
the saloons and turning the liquor loose on the
floor. The women were evidently in earnest.
Their eyes burned with the kindly light of zeal.
They wore white badges and lifted up tunsful
temperance battle-hymns till the frosty al.
quivered with the sound. Each one wore Q white
rosetts, a temperance badge, upon her person.
Thompson has local option, and voted mo
saloons" Some very disreputable persons
started out, leading young men astray, obtain
ing the farmers wheat money, and serving as .
general center for the shady side of life in the
vicinity. The women stood this condition Of
affairs as long as possible. Then they arose as
one Amazon and went through the saloons like
o boy through a pumpkin pie.
The old soakers, with aston;shed visages,
watched their loved potation trickle out on the
floor and waste it's sweetness in the prairie air.
They did not use force. but they had the sisters
arrested.
