"OLD PUT" REMEMBERED,

On June 18th the State of Connenecti-
cut will officially dedicate an equestrian
statue monument in honor of the tough
old revoIutionlst, General Israel Putnam
he of red-hag fame. The statue will
stand on a small square in the village of
Brooklyn, Windham County, Conn.
Brooklyn is not large place, but it is an
antique and historical one-a typical
New England village, with great old
fashioned houses, wide green, and
Swallowed by branching century-old
elms.
1t is not likely that the red flag will be
displayed on this occasion. The men
who will gather about the statue next
month are not the kind Of men who
would particularly edify the old general,
but they can safely carry out their pro
gramme around the granite statue of
the man who would have laughed at the
gold-lace and nickel-plate militia of the
present.

THE TIME TO HATE,

have friend--I mean, foe
Whom cordially ought to hate;
But somehow | can never seem
To lay the feud between us straight.
When apple boughs are full of bloom,
And Nature loves her fellow-men
With all the witChery of spring.
How can you hate a fellow then?
And then when summer comes, with
days
Full of a long and languid charm,
When even water lilies sleep
On waves without thought of harm,
When underneath the shadiest tree
My hammock hangs in idlest state,
were an idiot to get up
Out of that hammock lust to hate.
The harvests come. If mine is big,
! am too happy with my store;
If small, I'm too much occupied
With grubbing round to make it more.
In dim reCesSeS of my mind
have no idle hour to spend
In hunting up the bitter foe
Who simply ought to be my friend,
Ill WliltcI w eli, III NlHltl-uSH -
Who would add hate to winds that
freeze?
All love and warmth that can get
want in such dull days as these,
No, no, dear foe it is no use;
The struggling year is at an end;
| cannot hate you if | would
And you must turn and be my friend

A Visitors Opinion of the Carpet
Viewers.

The editor of the Chicago Labor En-
qIirer, JOS. II. Buchanan, writes as fol-
lows as a result of his observation while
in the metropolis recently;
1.-THE carpetworker have the best or
ganization, not only in New York, but
in the country. This is old d. A. 1876, or
John Morrison's district" as it was
called. There are 1000 members in the
city, all employees of Z. S. Higgins &
Co. Nearly onehalf of them are girls
and young women, and-pardon the
emotion-they are as pretty as they are
good and true to the cause of labor.
Every employee of these mills is a men,
Der of the Assembly-and a good mem
Der, too. Their meetings remind one of
the good old times in the X. of L., before
the ringsters destroyed confidence and
shattered hope. The inimitable Morrison
is still their honored chief, and he must
be a success, as the best of relations eX-
ist between the employees and the comp
any. The Philadelphia ring laid boy
colt on the carpets made by the Higgins
company, because the district refused to
surrender its rights and independence;
but it has not done great deal of harm.
The Enquirer desires to state in this con-
nection that there is not a more thor
oughly union shop in this country than
that of f. S. Higgins & Co., and the tes-
timony thereof is furnished by the en-
plOyees themselves"
