We set out some time back
to beat any S Blanket we ever
had. The only way to do it
was TO have the Blankets made
TO our especial order, and a
care for every step from the
fleece to the store.
Here's the result. Big, GEN
erous 10 begin with (74xS4
lnches). A stingy Blanket
wouldn't do, Six and a third
pounds ounces Of fine,
strong cotton warp, and every
scrap OF the rest good, honest
wool. You wouldn't suspect
the cotton It's hidden. Strength
with lightness. The soft, yield
ing, springy surface is wool
only. In the regular way OF
trade such a Blanket would be
cheap at more than $5-much
more. We believe it the best
Blanket to be had for the
money.
That's but one grain from
the Blanket bin. You can't 90
amiss whatever your choice,
and you can have no proper
choice that we can't meet.

The Labor Question.

Tx. x.COngressnlan HOrr's lecture on the
labor question last evening had plenty of
sound wisdom ia 1t, but his views on the
organization of labor are hardly fair.
That labor organizations can abuse their
power is not proof that may not be well
used and it seems natural and right that
labor should combine intelligently for
its cwn protection. The natural eyer
tion of every man for himself, referred to
by the lecturer are eXemplilied in tie oper-
ations Of labor and capital. The capitalist
will naturally and wisely try to get
cheap labor, and the men who have II for
sale as naturally and wisely Try 10 get
bstter prices, When the materials of
labor are kept at high prices by corners
and trusts and monop1lies as well rs by
tariff taxation, who can blame labor lor
IA effort at self-protscti2n ? Iudesd a
corner in labor, If they could form II,
would be national blessing TO be heartily
encouraged as a cure for the concentration
OF wealth in the hands OF the Gau,ds,
Vanderbilts aud other living national
caiamities. Cooperative LABOR IS aud
VIII probably always remain a Iailue,
because capitalists, created for the work ,
are the natural captains ~ Industry tut
there is every reason for hope that iu
time the uDioD Of educated aud fut=,ii-
gent laborlng msn will change the state
OF things that makes the wages ot labor
the most yielding point when prices are
forced downward

The decision OF the people against tard

troll either party. The cities favored aud
the country opposed, SO far as the re-
turns show the sentiment. The do

by handful of voters in New York

vastly more TO do with it than the tariff,
whose Influence on the result in these
States was inappreciable.
