A LIBEL ON LABOR,

An obscure sheet, published on the
east side, devoted two columns Of its
space last week to a defence Of F.Von
Sehlegell, judge of probate, and in the
process Of doing so poured out the yials
OF it's wrath on organized labor gener-
ally and tine Typographical Union in
particular. 1t might be well to inform
the editor Of this contemplate sheet
that the greatest thinkers of the present
century have pronounced in favor of
organized labor. The late lamented
Horace Greeley Yves the first president
of Typographical Union No. 8, and
that, after he had become an employer
Of large number of printers. The
Martyr President, Abraham Lincoln
did everything in his power to dignity
labor. In a terse sentence, luminous
with thought, the man who devoted the
last years Of his life to the emaneipa-
zion Of the poor slave, declared his high
appreciation of labor by declaring it's
precedence of wealth. He uttered the
glowing words when i'll full fruition OF
his mental powers. He expressed the
noble thought while holding the high
est political Office on earth. the chief
magistracy OF this great nation. He
voiced the honest sentiment while the
country was torn by civil strife, and
WIS obliged to lean heavily on capital
that the Republic might be extricated
from its perils. True, he did not des-
pise the legitimate accumu!ations of
honest industry and enterprise. But
the heart of the rail-splitter was with
the masses and no man more clearly
perceived the fact that labor ''precedes
all Wealth. AS labor is the founda-
ton of national prosperity, so within
itself lies its invincible power if faith
full to it's own interests. Vast as is the
aggregate of wealth in this country,
powerful as are the resources of capital,
still before the might of manhood all
must bow, if that might be directed in
channels where the sunlight illumines
the maxim that for workingmen, ian
injury to one is the concern Of all" In
the recognition Of that great truth, and
it's applicability whenever needed, ex-
lists the invincibility Of labor against
every foe, and worlsingmen realize this
fact. ID
When Judge Won Schiegell dared to
insult the most dignifed section of the
great army Of organized Labor he made
an irremediable mistake, as he will
realize before many moons have passed.
The members of the Typographical
union through their gentlemanly presl~
dent suggested to MIR. Won Schlegell the
adyisability of withdrawing his sup
port from paperthat is prostituting the
rights of labor, and the response OF this
most potent and grave judge was not
one that should reflect credit on the
judicial ermine. Now he will have to
suffer for his error.
In order that our readers may better
Judge for themselves the the calibre of
the paper that rushes to the defence OF
Judge Won Schlegell, we would remark
that the proprietor openly boasts that
during the first year Of it's existence no
less sum than s. per week was ex-
pended in paying running expenses.
