among some of our old friends and pa
irons that our Mr.. H. 7. NJ ILLER has retired from
the business of manufacturing Gentlemen's I'm
derwear. This impression is created doubtless by
an INGENIOUS ADVERTISEMENTS sent out through
the mail of the old shirt books and measures sold
by the trustee of the late VIM. Mitchell & Co
We will stat that the trustee wanted to sell us
those books, but we did not want them, nor did
we need them at any price. What we want is
your esteemed orders, NOT YOUR MEASURE, and
if we don't please and suit you is our fault not
yours.
We are deeper in the business than ever before
and with greater facilities every way, and await
your esteemed favors.

THE BETTER PART.
HARVEY REESE.

Better to know the truth, that maketh
free,
Than revel in the treasures of the
dead;
Better to open thine own eyes and see
Than blndly trust to what men may
have said.
Better than dreams of heavens future
bliss,
Or phantom pictures of another life,
1t is to live thy future life in this
Bring heaven down into this vale of
strife.
Better to touch with gentle hand a
That hath been wounded in the shade
of death,
Than from the sinful turmoil stand
apart
And gaze enraptured and with bated
breath
Into vision-land that fancy weaves
Beyond the clouds that deck eternity.
Better than painting angels on the
Of book or sermon, tale or homily,
1t is to show that angels walk the earth
Clad in the flesh of pure humanity;
To open well-springs in land of dearth,
And prove mans strength in his in
trinity.

BROOKLYN AMERICAN SECTION.

A very interesting discussion meeting,
sprinkled with little business, was
held las Tuesday evening by above
named Section at the Brooklyn Labor
Lyceum.
The Organization Plan of the Kings
County Committee was read and then
looked into carefully, paragraph by
paragraph. Parts of the constitution of
the s. l.. p. were taken up for discussion
for the general good of the members.
The principle subject of the evening was
the London dock laborers' strike.
The members of the Brooklyn Ameri-
can Section are unanimous in their sen
timents that the London strike is max
ing socialists by the hundreds and even
thousands, not only among the strikers
themselves, but among the people resid.
ing in London generally, as the strike is
affecting them disastrously.
Our organizer, Comrade Shafer, in
formed us that he had invited Comrade
Lucien Sanial to address either the new
branch Section, at the corner of Grand
and Keap street, next Friday, or the
Brooklyn American Section next Tues
day, as he desired.
1t was regularly moved and seconded
that the Brooklyn American Section at
tend the meeting at Grand and keap
streets in body next Friday.

was mentioned.

Special Circular to Workingmen's Or
CARNATIONS.

Special Circular to Workingmen's Or
CARNATIONS.
The City Committee of the S. l.. P.
has decided to send the following special
circular to all labor organizations in
New York city:
CITIZENs-You are invited to send
two delegates from your organization to
a Labor Convention under the auspices
of the New York Sections of the Social
list Labor Party for the purpose of con-
sidering labor laws to be submitted to
such convention, which will be called
by the County Committee of the S L..
P. between September 10 and October
/ next at the New York Labor Lyceum,
% East Fourth street.
In view of the many failures which
have attended the attempts of work
mems organizations to permanently Or
game politically for the benefit of their
class, the Socialist Labor Party, whose
platform emphasizes the emancipation
of labor, has determined to attempt the
organization of political movement,
offering the services OF their established
organization to that end, and thus
guarding against the fate of former
movements.
The labor laws to be submitted will
were recommended by the International
Socialist Workmen's Congress held at
Paris last July:
/. The eight-hour maximum labor day
for all workingmen.
2. Prohibition of child labor under
the age OF fourteen, and reduction of
the hours of labor of all minors be-
tween fourteen and eighteen years of
age to six hours day.
3. Prohibition of night labor, except
for such industries as require natural
uninterrupted attention.
4. Prohibition of woman labor in all
industries especially injurious to the
female organism.
5. Prohibition of night labor for
women and male laborers under eigh-
teen years of age.
6. A leisure time extending over at
least thirty-six hours in succession per
week.
7. Prohibition of such industries and
such methods of labor especially inju-
rious to the health of the workingmen.
8. Abolition of the truck system in all
its industrial establishments, inclusive
of industries carried on in dwellings.
8. Extensive inspection by State fac
tory inspectors, at least half of whom
to be selected by the wOrkingmen them
selves.
Propositions for the abolition of Ger.
tain unjust provisions in existing laws
which are now injuring the interests OF
the working people will also be duly
considered
In extending this invitation to you, we
assure you that it shall be our endeavor
to make this convention thoroughly
democratic, and no attempt on the part
of political heelers and anarchists to

A QUESTION OF LAW.

About two months ago the German
Section. of New York, through a COM
mittee preferred charges against four
members of the National Executive
Committee, namely, w, L. Rosenberg,
w. Hintze, Adolph Gerecke and Joseph
Fl. Sauter; then, through another COM
mittee, tried" the alleged delinquents.
The American Section, hearing that
charges had been preferred against the
National Executive Committee, also APP
pointed committee to investigate, in
structing it to sit with the committee of
the German Section, if permitted; but
the American Sections committee was
refused admittance on the ground that
the committee of the German Section
had.no authority SO to do. Consequently
the alleged facts were not officially
brought before the American Section S
committee, and they could not make
any report. Meanwhile, too, the Ma
tional Board of Supervision had sent in
its circular which denied jurisdiction in
the matter in these words:
"While the right of the Section of
New York to bring charges against the
National Executive Committee, or single
members of the same, or officers of the
party, is fully recognized, the Section,
however, has no authority whatsoever
to examine the members of the National
Executive Committee, or to investigate
the charges made against them, but
must only submit the charges to the
Board of Supervision, who will care.
fully and conscientiously examine and
decide about them"
Finally, in meeting composed of
members of the German and Jewish Sec
tons, between seventy and eighty votes
were cast in favor of withdrawing said
four members from the National Execu-
tive Committee. The membership of
the German Section is between seven
and eight hundred. The American Sec
ton did not take part in these proceed
ings, holding them to be illegal.
AT the regular monthly business meet
ing of the American Section, held Aug.
49,, committee of two from the Ger
man Section requested permission to
speak. The chairman asked the spokes-
man of the committee whether the SUBJ
iect of his remarks and the documents
he proposed to read debated the charges
brought against the Executive, and upon
receiving an answer in the affirmative,
. decided that it could not be permitted,
as such debate would be contrary to the
Constitution Section Regulations, y,
which provides that
''charges against members shall not be
debated until the special committee, to
be elected for this purpose, has thor
oughly investigated the case and re-
| ported to the Sections"
A written request of the German Sec
ton for joint meeting object of pro-
posed meeting not stated in request)
was refused, the American Section
holding that such meeting could not de-
eide upon anything, and would conse-
quently be useless.
The following resolutions were adopted
at the same meeting of the American
Section Aug. 49,:
Whereas, The New York German Sec
ton, S. L. P, by ratifying the action of
| its Central Committee in the matter of
certain charges against the National
