ing instance will show how similar
system in the building process liter
ally swlndes the workers out of part
of what they have so hardly earned.
A builder III Old street undertook "A
building job at Whitelcy's, and sub
let It TO kind of contractor or
sweater. The latter took on eight
men on the Monday before Good
Friday. The men were compelled
to work overtime, and as fast as pos
slble, that the job might be finished
before Easter. Our informant, who
was one of the men, says that he
earned by working almost night and
day, II IS. 4d., and he WIS paid los.
Of that amount and told to come the
following (Easter) week for the re
mainder. The seven other men
were treated in Il like manner.
When they went for the balance of
their wages they found that the
sweater had decampcd, and they
have not been able to find him.
They applied to the magistrate at
Marylcbone police court, who told
them tnat he would grant a sum
mons against the swindler if he
could be found for the summons to
be served upon him Cold comfort,
indeed The builder, too, who
originally undertook the job, dis
claims all responsibility for the men s
wages, as he sublet the job to this
contractor. So the men, after slav-
ing for four days and nearly four
nights, find themselves with less
than half the miserable pittance
which is their due even from a capi-
tllist's point of view."

JUST AS EASY !
How They Fix Things for the Work
iEgman.

ihS
" Dammum Dammum . Poll
tics is gone to the dogs, with all
these unions and walking delegates
and Socialists"
" But, governor, we have to deal
with them since they are here, and
the only thing necessary is diplom-
acy."
"Oh, | could get along all right
with the union men, some of 'em
anyway, but diplomacy is out of the
question with the Socialists"
"Well, they are only handful
of cranks, mostly Germans, and we
don't need to be afraid of offending
them. Let them howl. It's the
great mass of workingmen, who
don't belong to ally labor organiza-
ton, that we must look to for votes,
and American-tlag -spread-eagle pa
triotism fetchos them. As for the
unionists and Knights Of Labor, we
can put upa job that will bring
them out on our side next election,
now that they can't have a party of
their own"
eyes, and that reminds me
don't honor Henry's drafts any
more, He hasn't delivered any
green goods, and by Jupiter, | don't
think he ever will. But what's your
plan, good Iago."
Now, governor, don't lago'
me, but listen; Well have a caucus
and fix it with sufficient of the
doubtful "repubicans in the AS
sembly to pass that anti Saturday
half-holiday bill, and you can veto it
with an appropriate message, and
the papers will give us the full bene-
fit Of the action. And then you
can post some of your appointees,
and they will quietly do their duty
among the organizations

and one other things, costing large or
small amounts.
The regular revenue Of the Order is
derived from per capita tax of cents
quarterly upon each member in gOOi
@dndlag; a cents annually upon each of
230,oOO members, aggregates $4,000. In
these figures is found the most convin-
cling argument in defense of the Pro
vlsiOnars declaration that the Order is
rushing on to financial ruin.
Special assessments or a reduction in
salaries are the two horns presented to
the administration; and it seems that the
former has been chosen"
If the general officers only did
what it was in the power of intelh-
gent and faithful servants of the
Order to do for the welfare and edu-
cation of the members, there would
be less reason to complain. But to
accept salaries, aye, and conniye at
making those salaries suit their ex-
travagant ideas, and at the same
time oppose by "ways that are
dark every effort at radical and
progressive labor movement, GER
talnly deserves condemnation, which
1t receives from many who are still
loyal i'll the vain hope of finally
oustlng the ring. These members
of the Order owe a measure of
thanks to the kickcrs," even if
they finally leave the Order to at
tach themselves to some better regu-
lated organization.

THEY LENT THEMSELVES.
A Few Forty.Niners Sing "Protec.
tiOn" Airs.

So far as Importance is concerned
the meeting of handful of Knights
of Labor of District 40 at Cooper
Union, New York, last Tuesday
evening is hardly worth recording;
but, considering the fact that the
gentlemen who protested against
tlnkerlng with the tariff were to a
great extent members of "secret .
organization known as District 40,
X. of L., it might be interesting to
know what particular benefits &C
crue to the working people from the
untlnkored tariff.
The fact, too, that the "republi-
can " party also poses as "protec-
tlon party probably furnishes the
zephyr that bends the straw that
shows the way the wind blows.

1t was known, through such vermin as
Waller x Rau, that Spies had counter
manded Engcls plan, So that no commit
tee from the armed sections would be
present at the llaymarket, and no prepa-
ration for action made. How well it
suits rlutocratic p licy to let Bombastes
FuriOsO in the orators of Lehr und Weir
Nerein and their intellectual progeny of
to-day throw the word bombs, while it
keeps the metal and cigars in its own
hands, pro re Hatd dor the proper oCCa-
SION.
And how confidently it reckons on the
asinine docility of public opinion, as
following the direction of the bombs,
without making troublesome inquiry
about their throwerS or placcrs in con-
venient spots
How proyidential the little surprise of
these eliminating explosions, while the
vacuum they create is Immediately filled
by the atmospheric rush of indigna-
tion !
Wise and good Nox Populus Thine
be the kingdom, and the power and the
glory, for ever and ever. Amen!
1t was a capital idea, that of the Lehr
und Wehr Nerein, Engefs inspirees, to
make a counter-police to keep the others
in order. The trouble was that ii was
only an idea and evaporated in words,
instead of secretly passing into act.

A CHAPLAIN
Jokes TO Amuse New York Militia
Regiment.


The Seventh regiment, an excep-
tionally well-dressed body Of welI-to-
do fellows, keeps up with the de-
mands Of modern hypocrisy and or
naments its roster with the name Of
a chaplain who rejoices in the
euphonlous cognomen of John Il.
Paxton.
Chaplain John combines carnal
depravity with "splrltual" " high
flying, to the delectation of the
philosophers who wear the Seventies
uniform. John don't think that
fighting is the worst feature of war,
but discipline and carrying loads is.
John is d christian pastor" He
don't mind the killing of people, but
to make them work and keep order
is distasteful to his anarchic mind.
He amused his appreclatiye hearers
last Sunday by blaming God" for
the killing of a soldier who had
taken his place a moment before.
Humanity was hardly compensated
in the losing of man and saving an
ass.
The Seventh regiment has an ap-
propriate chaplain.

Unions "a, of New York, and 80. of
Bridgeport, reported that their respective
memberships had voted against making
the Bdecker Zeitung obligatory. The
National Executive decided that, where
as a majority of votes of all unions were
in favor of the measure and this being
a general vote of the National Union,
said measure becomes law, and is bind
ing on every local union represented i'm
the national body; and it was resolved
to suspend all unions not recognizing
said law, aild should ANY persist IN ignor-
ing the same, they shall be expelled.
The National Secretary was instructed
to notify both unions to that effect.
Members not able to read German are
not included in the decision. Most local
unions have already sent the addresses
of their members, and are much in favor
of the new arrangement regarding the

Murder
New Workers were startled last
Tuesday by the announcement of
the death, under suspicious circum-
stances, of Nathaniel W. r.. Hatch,
son of the banker Hatch, under the
windows of Mrs. Charles W. SEQ
fields bedroom. 1t seems that
Hatch had been treating Mrs. SEQ
field to drinks, and brought up with
her at her house and in her apart
ments. Her husband came home
late at night, and found her with ga
man in the house." In the morn
ing the dead and mutilated body of
the oman" Hatch was found.
Neither Mr.. nor Mrs. Scofeld were
arrested, and at the Coroner's in
gust they told conflicting stories, but
were allowed to 60 free.
Had they been poor working
people they undoubtedly would have
been "jugged." The capitalist
papers, notab y the SIM, are making
pltlful attempts to shield the sus-
pected couple, and even 60 80 far as
to say that their conflicting tales
agreed. 1t has not yet transpired
that they were prominent members
