"THE LABOR QUESTION"

Mr.. A. w. Wright of Toronto, Canada,
a member Of the general executive board
of the Knights of Labor, addressed a
meeting on "The Labor Problem" at Can

He said: "Our order is banded together

Have wages here fallen below the
point at which men can produce and livel
find It stated that the men Of the idle
and luxurious class live to be 60 years,
and men Of the hard working class 40
years. Is this not proof that the con
ditions Of labor have fallen below the
conditions of living for the working
class? We are the one who are forcing
employers to pay low wages because VIC
are as ready to buy from one who works
for low wages as they are

ARMED white regulators at Lafayette,
La, say that the negroes shall not vote.
They have forced colored constable to
resign and have threatened white Re
publican, Mr.. Vignaux, with banishment
unless he desists from further efforts to
establish negro rule. OF course nobody
can defend mob law, but the opinions of
the rabid negro-lovers would be greatly
modified If they experienced little
negro rule. The negroes are ignorant,
brutal, and do not own any property,
hence their supremacy Is particularly
calling to those who knew them as slaves.
Governor Nichols has ordered troops tC
suppress the riots. Meantime the race
supremacy question must go on TO fina
settlement. Nobody can tell whether the
two races can live in harmony or not
OF course everybody knows that "Bill'
Chandler and Mother Blair would prefel

PHILADELPHIA. Thursday, May Q, 1889.
1t has been our aim for a
series of years to print store

being right, have succeeded.
Fresh items and true state

reading constituency the like
of which has never before
been known.
Under the leadership thus
created a larger truthfulness
has come about, but a mass
of inaccuracy in advertising
still remains, which discounts
the efforts of all sincere adj
vertisers. Our interest de-
mand unceasing warfare upon
everything of the sort.
But we cannot hight IN de-
tail. Every instance in which
competing goods are offered
as bargains at higher prices
than we charge regular cannot
be challenged; when Sateens
are stated to be more popular
this season than ever, which
every dress goods man knows
to be untrue; when Mohair is
called Cloriosa, or Cashmere
Henrietta; when staple ar
ticles, open to all the trade
are represented as exclusive
simply because of a fictitious
trademark arbitrarily attach.

are printed we cannot pause

from 1866 to 1880 he was minister OF in
struction and general attorney OF the
holy synod. During these fourteen years
he sought to crush out in the schools and
colleges everything relating to the liberty
Of the subject, freedom of thought and
the acquisition Of higher knowledge. To
prevent the introduction of modern
books bearing upon these themes he or
dered the school education to be con.
Quoted on purely classical basis. This
order, however, was Indignantly resisted
and in 1880 he was compelled to resign
