have spontaneously adopted, almost
ldentlcally, the same programme.
AS it was pointed out at the Con-
gress, the programme of the Portu-
guese Labor Party hardly differs
from that of the Labor Party of
Poland. So, also, with regard to
Central and Western Europe. All
aim, according to the words Of the
resolution submitted to the Con-
gress, at the creation, son both an
economical and political basis, of q
distinct class party, in order to facil-
itatc the acquisition of public power
by the workers in the commune, the
county, or the State" This, of
course, is another way of proposing
"thc capture of public powers" by
the working class rs the only pacific
means of gradually realizing Social
ism.
Organized nationally in the above
manner, each country should, of
course, have its administrative CEN
ter, which, it is proposed, should be
called the National Committee.
There is not much in name,
though it would simplify matters if
every country adopted for its CEN
tral or federal council the same title.
However this may be, each National
Committee, if so they are to be
called, will have to keep up con-
stant and regular correspondence
with the National Committees of all
other countries, 50 as "to establish an
understanding between the work
men Of all nations on all questions
which concern them" Further,
each National Committee in its turn
will, if possible, organize an inter
national congress, so that every year
the Labor Parties Of all countries,
may meet and come to o mutual un-
derstandlng. In earnest of this de-
termination the NationalVommittee
of the French Labor Party will, ac-
cordlng to the resolution adopted at
the international Congress Of 1886,
and reatfirmed by the London Inter
national Congress, hold the first of
these congresses in Paris this year.
1t will not be, as on former occa-
slons, trade union congress, but o
general congress Of the workmen of
all nations. The result will be much
the same, for, as we have seen, it is
the trade unionsts who are the most
ardent politicians and the leading
organizers of the Socialist Parties in
every country excepting England.
The probabilities are that for the
present, at least, these annual con-
crosses will suffice to keep the Labor
Parties Of the different countries in
touch with one another. 1t will not
be necessary to elect a General Coun-
clI representing the various nation
alltles, such as that which governed
and destroyed the old International.
BY following this line of conduct
each nation will be left free to select
its own leaders, and adopt tactics
most in keeping with its customs,
laws, and local idiosyncrasies. The
attempt to impose leaders and meas
ures from abroad was one of the
most fruitful causes of internal dis
pute and disruptions which led to
the collapse Of the first Interna-
tonal. In word, the future Inter
national will be based on Home Rule
principles; and this is d very natu-
raj reaction after the failure of CEN
traIzaton as attempted by the prin-
cipal chiefs of the old International.

A general view of the political
situation in Chicago from a labor
point of view may not be amlss at
this time. The action of the Social
ist Sections was surprise to many.
The Chicago Tribune said, on learn
ing of the determination Of the So
clalists to nominate a ticket:
"The announcement that at the eev-
enth hour the Socialist Labor Party had
decided to put up an independent ticket
came like flash of lightning from a
clear sky to the Democrats and Labor
ties"
And no doubt they were some
what "put out. - They had hoped
to "rake in" the sociahstic vote,
basing their calculations upon the
alluring assurances of such bright
spirits as Gruenhut, Schllling 4
Co. So when these worthless heard
the determination of the Chicago
Sections, they had representatives
at the COnyentiOn-not to assist the
Socialist program, but to breed dis
cord. They were not allowed to ad-
dress the convention, and SO they
quietly hissed their poison to such
as were willing or passive enough to
listen. For instance:
The iron-clad regulations of the
Party were bad. They interfered
with work already laid out in the
interest of the ljving martyrs. Tan
ner Mcconnell, who, with Henry
Lloyd and Prof. Salter, sought Gen,
Oglesby to modify the death penalty
of the anarchists, is now candidate
on the democratic" ticket, and our
sense of gratitude, as well as the
interest of the movement, should
convince US of the necessity Of
placing him on our ticket.
This is cited as a sample of the work
that is going on among the anarch-
lists who repudiate all politics, espe-
cially compromise politics.
Neebe's petition will be presented
to the "republican" Governor Of
this State on the 10th of April, the
election takes place on the ID.
Something must be done for the
Republican" party, or our martyr 5
pardon cannot be expected. To
nominate a socialist candidate for
mayor might endanger the election
of Roche, the "republican" candi-
date hence, the 1rbeiter ZejtHag
deprecates the nomination Of a full
ticket. concentrate your efforts,
it says, "On one or two wards, and
then you can expect some success"
Such humbug is fostered by the
ArJejter Zeituag, and will never
cease till the National organization
of the Socialist Party gets ready to
place an honest and fearless news
paper in this city.

Railroad sunarxision.

The opinion Of Judge Brewer in the case
OF the railroads Iowa, petitioners for an in
junction against the State Railroad Commits
sioners, to restrain the latter from imposing
certain rates alleged by the railroads not to
be compensatory, is of much interest to
States like Maine that are meditating laws
to fix the rates that railroads shall charge
for freight and passenger traffic In a pre-
vious case Judge Brewer had in effect de-
cided that the State cannot fix rates below a
paying point. An early synopsis of Judge
Brewers last decision made 1t appear that
the Judge had practically overruled his first
opinion and decided that the railroads must
submit to rates actually made by the rail-
road Commissioners. The full text of the
opinion shows that this synopsis gives an
entirely erroneous view. Judge Brewer
still holds to his original opinion that the
State cannot fix the rates SO low as to make
them non-compensatory. In his last decis-
Ion he clearly implies that If it had been
proved that the rates fixed by the commits
sloner were non-compensatory the injunc-
ton prayed for would have been granted
The real question before Judge Brewer was
question Of fact, and the evidence was
not conclusive enough to enable him to de-
termine it absolutely. 1t was not shown to
his satisfaction that the commissioners rates
would not be compensatory. Hence he
could not interfere. He therefore dismissed
the petition for an injunction, but his Ian
guage admits of little doubt that If actual ex-
pertinent shows that the rates are non-com-
pensatory then the roads will be entitled to
relief from the courts. What the Judge
means by compensatory he does not explain,
but 1t is fair to presume that he means by
1t such rate as will pay the expenses of the
operation of the road and yield fair return
to its owners.
AS matter Of fact there is nothing very
new In either Of Judge Brewers opinions.
ne simply upholds the doctrine, long ago
settled by the courts, that the State has the
power Oh imposing restrictions upon rail-
roaus' out that those restrictions must be
reasonable, and not such as TO destroy the
value OF the road to its owners. Though
TINS mas been the settled law for a long time
there seems to be nevertheless an imnres
sion abroad that the State can do anvthIng n
sees fit with the railroad-that its no1ar
over 1t is unlimited.

Mr.. Looney's electoral reform bill was de-
feated in the House, yesterday, by large
majority. The arguments offered against it
were that it was not needed that there was
no general demand for it; that it would not
remedy the evils against which it was direct
ed even IL those evils existed that it was too
complicated and would be prolific Of mis-
takes. The fact that the method prescribed
by the bill was now used by over 80. 00o. 900 of
people, and that it had won almost universal
commentator, even from men who had Bit
terly opposed its adoption. had no weight.
The result was not unexpected, but is none
the less to be regretted. Some reform in the
electoral methods now in use in the United
States within few years is inevitable, and
it was desirable that Maine should lead
rather than follow. Yesterday. she chose
to follow. That is all. oa

The geological department of Colby Uni
versity has begun to make collection of the
minerals and econmic productslof Maine,and
appeals to the people of the State to assist it
in its work, by contributing such specimens
of minerals as they may have and be will
ling to part with. Minerals intended for
the collection should be plainly marked with
their proper names. the exact locality from
which they are obtained. and with the do
nor's name. Rock specimens should be cubes
of four inches on an edge. They should be
polished on one side and finished on four
sides in such a way as to exhibit their prop
critics to best advantage. On the sixth side,
(Which should be opposite the polished side)
they should be rough. A card hearing the
name of the donor and of the company quar-
rying the rock, as well as the scientific and
popular name Of the material, should always
accompany the specimen. Other materials
should be labeled with corresponding accu-
racy, and If used for the manufacture Of
commercial products, specimens OF these
should also be sent. Donations may be made
In money, and care will be taken to invest it
to good advantage. Such collection as is
contemplated would be Of great yalne to the
State. and it is to be hoped .Colby's appeal
will meet with many responses. ~

The last story that comes from the Do
minion, which by the way has been very
prolific in stories of late, is that Sir John
Macdonald is going to try and head off the
annexation movement by submitting to Par
lament series of measures creating an in
dependent kingdom Of the new Dominion
under British protection, with one of the
royal family as reigning head. The Tory
press of the Dominion has assured us all
along that there was no annexation move
ment, worth talking about, but if this rumor
is true then 1t would seem that annexation
had become very dangerous, and that it gives
the Tories much greater concern than they
have been willing to admit. ~ Lag -

Senator Freeman's bill in relation to farm

State, proposes to put them to some extent
under the supervision Of the bank examiner
very much as foreign insurance companies

such measure. or course 1t may be said that
it is the business of the investor to look out
for himself, but so it can be said of the

is that the individual lacks the power which

Senators Hawley and Platt. Senator All

The overwhelming defeat Of the Union
lists at Govan and elsewhere in Scotland APP
pears to have opened Mr.. Joseph Chamber
lain's eyes to the necessity Of the govern
ment's introducing some reforms in Ireland,
unless Unionism is to fall to pieces. Whst
Mr. Chamberlain has to suggest is free
schools and a crofter's land purchase bill.
He says his American experience showed
him that common schools are the glory of
The country. But Mr.. Chamberlain will prob
ably find that 1t is only his end Of the coali-
tion that is willing to do much of anything
for Ireland. By the other, or Tory end, any
movement looking to the elevation of the
Irish people or the extension of their privil.
eyes win be viewed with alarm. They have
always looked upon ireland as a conquered
province, likely to rebel the moment the
iron heel of England was lifted from Its
neck. Consequently their notion has always
been, and probably stu is, that stringent
and repressiye laws backed by plenty OF
police and troops afford the only practica.
BILE way of governing Island. Possibly the
events of the last few years have modified
their views somewhat, but not enough, it is
to be feared, to cause them to look upon Mr..
Chamberlain's suggestions with much favor
