The appearance of the high mucky
mucks" in labor circles here, which ap
pearvd in the ADVOCATE, caused consd-
cradle interest in that paper, and it was
read by many who scarcely paid any
attention to it before. 1t is said that
Jekyll-Foster Immediately went through
the instantaneous transformation act
and became Hyde as soon as he read it,
That will yet shake him down from
his imaginary safe eminence.
AT the election Of officers Of the Cen
trail Labor Union last Sunday there was
enacted a roaring farce. "Pharisee
joe" as the PutnterS Adrocate terms
JOS. G. Clinkard, walking delegate of
the carpenters, is the president of the
G. l.. U. He has served two terms and
all precedents were against him for a
third term. But Joey is artful. Joey
is like Joey Bagstick. Joey wants the
re election, but if he says 80 the cry of
third term" would he raised, SO he
asked for the privilege of the floor after
the nominations for president were
closed and read his report (Which he
did not write for the past year, in which
he tells the new delegates what | have
done" and prayeIfully persisted in ask
ing the delegates to please not nomin-
ate him. Oh, 1t was juicy sight,
marble bust of Ben. Franklin, which
adorned the hall, and Whiskers p. Cher
ington, who is an open and ayowed
lobbyist at the State House, murmured
to rabid Henry George man: Would
that had that gall of bronze, 'TwOuld
be dollars in my inside pocket if | had. >
Then the gentle Jekyll-Foster arose, and
with all the persuasiveness of his nut
brown eloquence, urged the body not to
accept JOey's declination. Such a mo-
ton was passed. The trick worked to a
charm, and the Pharisee Joe was
elected. Two of his former friends
were running for the position, and they
say nothing now but saw wood
Pharisee Joe originated in his union
the kick against the Socialists in the
c. l.. T., which terminated in having
them given leave to withdraw their c1e-
dentials. He didn't want any political
party in that body. Now he favors run
ming his side partner, Frank koyote
Foster, for Mayor on a labor ticket.

Never was the Central Labor Union in
this city so corrupt as now. The poor
rank and file know it not yet II must
be rank for them to know it. 1t will
not be long, however, before they will
get on to the "high mucky mucks
through the ADVOCATE, and the gang
will then have to walk the plank. If
they don't, the sooner the c. l.. L. goes
where the gentle woodbine twineth, the
better it will be for the progress of
ideas

FRUITS OF THE CONGRESS

The prominent idea brought out in the
discussions was the necessity for an
eight-hour work-day, and the necessity
was made manifest that to obtain any
thing like success international action
was necessary. No doubt the action
taken by the congress will have due
weight in bringing about the eight hour
day set down for next May in this coun-
try. Already the discussion and resolu-
tions have brought forth fruit in Lon
don, where a successful effort was made
to reduce the hours of gas workers from
twelve to eight, without any reduction
in pay. The discussion of workingmen
in international session will be prolific
of much benefit. Any industrial reform
movement can be carried on with better
prospects of success when an understand
ing is arrived at between the workers of
all countries. OF course there are still
some countries where labor organization
and agitation is forbidden by law, but if
the workers can obtain taste of indus
trial freedom through a delegate, they
will find means for discussion, and the
leaven will work. Craftsman.

Cialists.

1t is an undisputed fact that we will
have p hard fight the next election with
the democratic party. A majority Of
this party-the big tail of it's COM
posed of workingmen, especially since
the last strike Of the street-car employ
ees. The idea is prevailing that the
strike would not have been lost had the
City Council and the Mayor been dem
ocratiC" Fortunately this superstition
has been destroyed by the "democrats"
themselves in one of the last meetings
of the City Council
The firm of Anderson q Douglas had
recently submitted a plan to the Council
for building a cable road, offering to
pay for al! damages resulting from the
work to the city, and to give high Sc
curity in bonds. H'd this offer been
accepted the street-car monopoly, whose
president is Tom Lowry, would have
a powerful competitor. But demo
Gratis and republicans united in
vote against the project, although vigor-
GUS protests had been raised i'll several
public meetings by the Minneapolis
inhabitants.
The democrats" profess theoretically
in their platform that they are opposed
to monopolies; practically they prove
themselves as ready as The "repubh-
cans" to promote monopOlistic schemes,
regardless of any public clamor about
their treachery. Shall the working
class continue to support such trick
sters: We emphatically say Mo- at least
if we can help it. If we had already
perfected our State organization, it
would be the duty of a conscientious
State Executive Committee to publish
these facts in a striking leaflet, and to
distribute it in every house in every
city throughout the entire State, This
would be an effective Socialist agitation.
But, at any rate, we propose to act,
and shall not allow the workIngmen to
forget this example of democratic"
unscrupulousness at the next election.

"ta lra! every honest Socialist must
have exclaimed when entering Wav.
erly Hall last Sunday afternoon. The
Hall was crowded with an attentive
audience. Comrade Morgan called the
meeting to order and read an editorial
from one of our capitalist papers,
headed; THE Progress of Our Time"
Comrade Adams then took the floor.
Holding in his hand copy of one of
our dailies, "What are the contents of
this Sheet" he.asled, 81. A Mr.. Gallon
has swindled the bank to the amount of
S2OO0Oo ?. A Mr.. n. has committed
suicide. 3. Great prize fight. 4. Five
people killed on the railroad, etc, etc.
All these reports are read by our
higher class with great pleasure.
They are delighted to learn that hun
dreds and thousands of their fellow-men
are plunged into misery and crime"
Comrade Orchardson said he was unable
to understand how any man could feel
happy while any of his fellow.men was
poor slave. The slaves of the South
were fed by the shareholders. They
were taken care of when sick and una
bic to work; but our white slaves may
die as soon as they are out of employ
ment This is a horrible condition of
affairs" the speaker continued. MEN
are not born to be masters and slaves.
They are born TO be free. And to be
free means to en- JOY all the blessings of
life on this earth, which is only possible
| III Socialist state
Comrade Morgan called the attention
of the audience to the report of the Ar
bitration Committee regarding the coal
miners strike, While the bosses say,
1--WE cannot afford to pay more" the
workmen say, ''We cannot work for
less because il we did we would
starve." Frank Lawler and his
crowd" the speaker said" "would now
have the best opportunity to preach
| Socialism, because this is the only way
to get out of this trouble. That gentle
man said some weeks ago that the So
cialists had no right to philosophize
about the coal-mners strike. The
miners, he declared, needed bread, and
that's all, But Lawler is now placed in
an unpleasant position, and he does not
know how to get out of it. The strikers
are hungering in spite of his benevo-
lence, and now he is even unable to get
any more Of those beneiicent gifts"
Comrade Hamilton gave splendid
illustration of the system Of land specu-
lation in the city of Chicago. "The cit
izens of our city he said, "are robbed,
for ground rent only, of $30,000,000 a
year, and this sum must be Epaid by the
working people only
Comrade Morgan requested the peo-
pie present to join the Socialist Labor
Party, as this was the only party that
would free humanity from eternal
| slavery.

PROVIDENCE, R. |.

The regular semi-monthly meeting Of
the Central Labor Union was held last
Sunday. large and enthusiastic mem
bership being present.
Work was laid out for the legislative
committee and the various organizations
reported increased membership.
The chairman of the conference of the
labor organizations held on Friday
night to take action on the Telegram
lockout made his report. A committee Of
ten, representing all the labor organiza-
tions i'll the State, was appointed to act
in accordance with the recommendation
of the conference.
The Erening CaH, published by Typo
graphical Union No. 33 as a result of
the lockout, is becoming every day more
popular and influential. 1t is well
edited paper, sound in economic labor
doctrine, and well supplied with news.
1t enjoys a large advertising patronage
and has evidently come to stay.
1t was unanimously resolved to take
part in the picnic of Molder's Union No.
Il, to be held on Labor Day, the first
Monday in September.
At $50 the meeting adjourned.

grice ! gents

of shop-tailors, every one of whom is
afflicted with the foolish conceit of being
better than the Others How much
these things helped on the process of
undermining the trade, is shown again
by this instance of Boston-New York.
Shall this suicidal policy be continued
until the whole trade is demoralized or
is it not time at last to recognize the
solidarity of interest of all workingmen
employed in one trade? This will have
to be understood and acted on and the
sooner the better If they are wise,
they will listen to reason else bitter
experience will teach them"

PUBLICATION NOTICES.

We are in receipt of the first num-
Der of the Integral CO-operator, a
monthly publication devoted to the
development Of integral cooperation,
and to the encouragement Of every
phase of equitable co operative en-
deavor.' 1t is published In Grass Val
ley, Cal, by the Central Phalanx of the
Cooperative Commonwealth, which has
been organized for the purpose of es-
tablishing Homestead with agricul.
tural and other industries, in the foot
hills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains,
upon the principles advocated by Fou-
rier, Robert Owen, Cabet and Godin.
1t is claimed for the plan that it embod-
les all the best features of past endeav-
ors in the same direction.
Another publication of the same char
acter is the AHrutst, issued in st. Louis,
Mo-, and edited by Alexander Longey.
But while the Integral Co-operat0r is
largely Fourierist, the AHruist is both
Communist and Communalist, advocat-
ing government ownership of all things
needed for the common use, and the
subdivision of the people into commu-
mites of about 1000 persons, each of
which shall have the absolute control
of its own local property and business
affairs.
While we have no faith in those
schemes, and are strongly opposed to
any partial application of the co-opera
tive system, we notice them as evil
dences of the growing feeling of unrest
among the people.
