statutes put into force as will protect
labor from the united conspiracies of the
law-defying capitalists who hold the

more money was dangerous snag, and
the children become the rivals of the
parents for work. The snag of desire
for office should be removed. Men came
into labor organizations to get office
and when they had gained prominence
they used their influence to obtain polit-
lcel office. The snags of nationalism and
traitors and politicians in the ranks of
Organized Labor were exhibited, and a
warning sounded against them. In
France the police were instructed not
only to become members of secret or
CARNATIONS, but to get direction of 0f-
fairs, II Georges pertidy was referred
to, and the speaker said that it would
have been more honest for the author of
Progress and Poverty to have ex-
planned two years ago that his book was
one thing, but that he was a demo-
GRAFT" There is but one hope left-the
Socialist Labor Party. Politicians are
not welcome there, and if they came in
they would soon be kicked out. The
dickering policy of the United Labor
Party was given consideration, and was
among the political whirlpools.
There were but two speakers after
Mr.. Sotheran, the first sustaining the lee
turer, and the other defending the
dickering policy Of the U. l.. F., to
which Mr.. Sotheran replied in forcible
language in closing the debate.

DON'T FORGET

That on Friday, Aug, 81, the grand
musical and literary entertainment will
take place at the Labor Lyceum, % East
Fourth street, for the benefit of Com
race j. Edward Hall.
Be sure to attend:
Firstly, because the object in view is a
worthy one, and deserving of all the en-
enlargement possible
Secondly, because with such an array
OF excellent talent as have kindly volun-
teered on this occasion, you will most
assuredly have an enjoyable evening.
So don't forget to be there, and in
duce your friends and acquaintance to
do likewise.

CENTRAL LABOR UNION.

At the Central Labor Union last Sun
day the Miscellaneous Section requested
the withdrawal of the BARRIERS Union
delegate On the ground of being pro-
fessional republican politician, and a
committee was appointed to consider the
case. The Excelsior Labor Club pre-
sented the following resolutions concern
ing the victimizing Of the three girls who
testified before the Ford Congressional
Investigating Committee, by their EN-
pl0yers:
Whereas, In consequence of the ter
rible and heartrending results of the in
PRODUCTION by immigration of unrestrict-
ed contract and pauper labor into the
United States, a Congressional commit
tee has been investigating its causes and
effects on the wage earning masses of
the country; and
"li heredS, Three witnesses who gave
important evidence before that body,
viz; Marion Preston, Mary Berg and
Nlncenza Neprek, were discharged by
their employers, the notorious shirt
sweaters, Julius Oppenheimer and Her
man Stein, and jacob q Bookman, cigar
manufacturers, for telling the truth
about the decrease of their wages
through the employment of Russians,
Polanders, and other pauper immigrants,
and the evils resulting therefrom; and
Whereas, This is but another evi
dence Of the heartlessness and criminal
conduct of the capitalists who, owning
all the means of life in this country, to
the value of $4,000, 0O0,0 900, are gradu-
ally endeavoring to bring the producers
of America to the condition of chattel
slaves through boycotting, blac1listing
and other nefarious conspiracies:
ReSoired, That the Excelsior Labor
Club calls upon the delegates to the Cen
tral Labor Union to take such action as
will show the heartfelt sympathy of or
gained labor toward those victims of
monopolistic oppression, and also to pun
ish their tyrannical employers who de-
iberately drove our sisters from honest
labor to fill perchance paupers graves

Ensland's Lcathery Sandwiches.

Railway refreshments in England are
provcrbially dear and bad, but they are
certainly getting worse. The sit down
meal rs respectable, and the plates OF eggs
and cold meats are eatable, but ..le buns
ana sandwiches land there is, Or would be
al immense bun and sandwich public are
simply atrocious. As a rule everything
under glass cover is stale. Is IL posi-
bic that the great firm which contracts
for 50 many OF our railway stations can be
aware VI the disgraceiLl way in which the
hand TO mouth refreshments are thrown
on the public? Why do not they appoint
periodical inspectors, charged 10 taste tho
ways'dc buns, etc? Perhaps no one can
be got TO do the tasting in the present
state OF affairs. 1t would be no light
ordeal Anyhow, the sandwich market is
simply being ruined for want OF a little
butter, mustard and fresh bread. The
two penny sandwich is fraud-dry and
tasteless-while tho bun is altogether
leathery. Pail Mall Gazette.

Change, of the Chameleon.

If we take three pieces OF glass, and dis
tribute over one several small drops of
brown paint. by pressing on this with an
other glass, the drops are spread out, Civ
ing 10 the whole glass delicate brown
lint If We now separate the glasses a
little the paint collects in drops, and tho
tint partly disappears. Ii we take tho
third glass and place Oh II few drops of
green paint, and then press it against one
II the others. green tint will show
through the layer of brown dots. The
skin of the chameleon is, roughly speak
ing, made up OF three such layers, with
dots OF pigment called chromatophores
between them These dots may be con
tracted or spread out in thin layers, the
resulting color depending on the color of
the chromatophores affected. The power
Of adapting color to surrounding objects
is known to naturalists as protective re-
seU blance, and many cases OF it are to
be found in both the animal and vege-
table kingdoms. The Swiss Cross.
