DOING THE RACES.
Henry Murray Gets His Head Cut and ia
 Arrested.

Arrested
 The Shelton Advertiser this morning gives the following account of the doings of Waterbury young man in that neigh borhood: Henry Murray, of Canal street, Waterbury, with brother swindler, have been operating upon the uninitiated at the races the past few days with what is known as "shell outfit" Several verdant youths fell victims to their daft manipulations of the ''little ball" Yesterday they brought their shells into town and proceeded to fleece the people at the various public re- sorts. At one place visited, their actions were so offensive to the patrons of the place as to cause their being ordered out. Upon refusing to go, fight followed, in which Murray received wound in the back of the head that bled profusely. He was taken to the lookup, where the flow of blood was checked, and the wound sered up by Dr. O'Sullivan. Murray's partner, who started the row, succeeded in making his escape during the confusion following his injury.

The man who was killed at Milford early last Tuesday morning, has been identified as William A. Stone, of 98 Silver street, New Haven. A pool check of J.

ReSOrted to Arbitration.

The district arbitration committee of the A. O. F., which was composed of two representatives from Bridgeport, one from Hartford, one from Wallingford, and one from New Haven, met in New Haven We'd nesday night and sat as tribunal in case in which one of their brother members ac- cused another of being a defaulter and for which islander was alleged. The case was that of O'Hara vs Malloy and was brought up for trial before the Court Housatonic, of Birmingham, of which both are members. O'Hara then failed to substantiate his charges and was found guilty, from which finding he appealed to the district arbitration committee, which met last evening. Decision was reserved.

TaE Argus is a candidate for the
council of Dakota from Cass county.
OF the Argus it may truthiully be
said the farmers might 30 far and fare
worse, for though it is ''bold, bad
one, it is republican--it still has that
courage of its convictions rs to make
it the instrument of great good to the
farmers. The Argus says:
This of all years is the season for
farmers to hold wheat. The Argus
has advocated the enactment of a law
authorizing the formation of corpora
tions among producers, to enable farm
elevator companies to issue bonds for
construction Of elevators on farms,
away from railroads. With elevators
for storage see how the farmer could
take advantage of such conditions as
this described by The Edgely Mail:
w. 7. Baker, n Chicago commission man
predicts that wheat may reach the S1.5C
per gu sti,el mark before another harvest is
gathered. He bases his belief on the cable
advices of a short crop in Europe, which is
said to be so per cent short Of a full yield
These reports and the result of the harvest
in southern Minnesota, together with fros'
in the Manitoba regions, has already had ar
effect on the prics, which is now quoted a
- oo,ts IN Y,,o local market.

seeds, fertilizers, feed Of work stock, etc,
used In agricultural industries, tie valnc Of
the product Of one person in manufacturing
industries il three AMI three-fifths times
as much as the value Of the product Of each
person engaged in farming. We also SEQ
that for every 500 capital invested in man
ufacturing q product is realized Of SO,
while for every 800 capital Invested in
farming there is realized q product Of only
$14. From this comparison of the relative
prosperity Of our agricultural and manu-
featuring industries it is undeniably evident
that, even SO far back as 1880, the repuLli
can tariff tax had 50 initiated against the
interests Of the farmers that one man en-
gagged in agriculture could produce only
about one-fourth Of the amount in value
which one man could produce in manufac-
lures, and that q given amount of capital in
vested in farming industries produced only
one-ffth as much value Of product as the
same amount produced in manufacturing in
dustries. l think I have a right, Mr. Chair
man., I think I may say it is my solemn duty
to appeal to the republican party to halt in
their merciless destructive legislation against
the interests Of the farmers of the United
States. L%amentable as was the picture in
1880, 1T is more deplorable today. Palaces
and untold wealth concentrated in the hands
Of the highly-favored few, while q leaky
roof and a %mortgaged home is all that is left
to the once proud, independent, and happy
American farmer.

great one. IN Ohio the crop i reported to
be not over sixty per cent of the average,
and Of inferior quality. In Illinois the
quality i, not high, though the quantity har-
vested is satisfactory, and in Kansas the
loss Of fully one-third hes been sustained by
the negligence Of the farmers in protecting
what promised to be a fine wheat crop. With
the suffering expected in England, and the
rise in the price Of bread already made
therein, on account Of the failure Of the
wheat crops, and in anticipation Of the GER
tain scarcity Of that cereal in the immediate
future, the United States is to be congratu-
lated upon the amount Of wheat already
harvested in this country If we cannot
feed the world, it is pleasant to know that
we that can feed ourselves.

Working Mems Worries.

The conditions under which men have to
do their work are often very trying. | have
known men who work in piano factories
complain Of the terrible exhaustion that fol-
lows on having to work in top rooms, where
oil the heat, and gas, n smells from below
gather, and no outlet Is permitted. Some
times, also, the strong will protest against
any opening for ventilation, because OF
draught. This makes 1t harder on the man
lacking vitality, or troubled, perhaps, with
lncipient disease. 1t is not always the en-
ployer's fault that the conditions are so
trying, for their attempts to promote the
health Of their people by ventilation, are
often frustrated by the obstinacy and igno-
rance Of the men. We have pitied the poor
tailors whom we have seen in many
sweating shops, who have had to work rap
idly and necessarily while q sweltering July
sun has beaten on the many-windowed root.
Many q room in Gilchrist street, OF White
chapel, is like q conservatory in shape and
quantity Of glass, and with a large coke fire
in the centre to heat the irons. 1t is endur-
able in winter, though most unhealthy, but
the coke fire in a small room in summer time!
Bah I! Perhaps this is one Of the reasons
for the use Of the term Sweating" The
competition for work also is so keen. and
the English workman is worried by the for
.eiguers who come in now to crowd the
English labor markets. From Germany and
Sweden, from Italy and Switzerland, from
Greece and from Russia they come. Gipsies
and Jews and natives of every land find q
refuge on our shores we are proud of our
freedom and capacity to receive all these
strangers, but is unfortunately an extra
worry, and makes it very hard for our
home-workers. Meanwhile the sweater,
with large or small capital, has a splendid
opportunity, aud he makes the most OF 1t.
Then think of how, when men work hard
in their own homes or close workshops, they
find they are beaten down below living-price
by the great capitalist, the "smashers' and
'slaughters' who purchase their wares.
The great firms are always ready to pur-
chase sat a price," and the toiler has to be-
ware of spelling tho market. In trying to
%pursuade the member of one large firm to
purchase the goods manufactured by a poor
~toiler, that member said to me-'The man
knows he can bring them to me ut any time,
and they are sure to be taken at q price"
The need of the man is evidently taken
advantage of. Working mems difficulties
are increased by the persistent cry for
c~heapncss; but let not working men blame
others alone. Let them blame themselves.
They are part of the public who raise and
sustain the cry for c%heapness. They are
all ready to purchase slop-made articles Of
dress or furniture, and often prefer.quantity
to quality, and show to solidity.-From The
Quiyer.-Glasgow (Scotland) Herald.

occurred on Labor Day, Sept. 3, in
Cincinnati, Ohio. The Knights OF
Labor while passing under a Harrison
and Morton banner, stretched across
one Of the streets caused their band to
play a funeral d;rge and lower their
colors. 1t is understood that this &C.

been a consistent foe to the interests

BEHOLD TILE RECORD.

We have refrained from comment
ing on the republican nomination for
delegate in congress from Dakota, I'M
til we should have found out some-
thing of the record which the Hon.
Geo. Matthews made while a men,
Der of the territorial council of 1887.
Having done so, we present the same
with the view of having the farmers
of Bottineau county consider and
then decide whether such q man with
such a record is one who is calculated
to advance their interests. It is no
argument, neither is it any answer to
the objection that may properly be
urged against his acceptance by the
people of Dakota-to say that a con-
g%ressional delegate has Eote. To
send such a man to gAfe for would,
Notwithstanding, be asEa te III and a
reflection on the good and sin.
Of the people of Dakota, for
when they have an opportunity to
express their sentiments and demon.
strate their moral power and exert
their moral influence they should GER
tainly do if and if they sustain such q
man as Matthews with such a record
by sending him to congress, they dis.
play a moral cowardice and a lack Of
true courage, which would bring the
farmers of Dakota into contempt;
while Mr.. J. w. Harden in congress
though he have no vote, would exer.
else an influence hat would be used
and felt for the good of Dakota. The

TO put It III nnbffer way, The countries
which always have to buy wheat must this

the countries raising more than they con-
sumo will have about 8 5,O0O,00O to sell.
Easfand will have to import ut least 49,

crops ever reaped. A week ago it was esti-
mated that she would need to import 3d.
