BLAINE IN A LONDON SHOP

How the Attendant Knew that His Gus
toner Was Not an Englishman.
A Philadelphia business man recently
returned from Europe relates an incident
OF Mr.. Blaine's visit to London. Mr.
Blaine happened into the establishment
OF a well-dnown firm Of naval and mill
tary bootmakers and asked to see some
she es. Having selected pair to his lik
ing Mr.. Blaine inquired the cost, at the
same time casually remarklng that he had
oeen referred to the house by friend in
Lancashire, from which district he had
himself just run up to London for short
stay.
But you are not an Englishman, sir, y
aid the attendant who was waiting upon
him.
"And why not2" asked Mr.. Blaine.
.'Do | not look like an Englishman? And
did [ not say that hailed from Ian
oashire?"
You may have just come from Ian
cashire, and | do not say that your looks
are not English" answered the salesman,
but an Englishman would not have
asked the cost of those shoes, sir-he
would have asked the prize. !"
And Mr.. Blaine was forced by the
quick discrimination of the London
tradesman into acknowledging his foreign
nativity.

MAJ0RITIES RULE.

Majorities decree the course Of atom, globe and man On lines of least resistant force Seems the eternal plan. There's no exception to this rule That we shall ever see In Natures democratic school Is taught Necessity. Majorities hold to their track The starry worlds on high; This self-apparent, deathless fact Will everywhere apply. This mighty pow'r controls our birth Decrees our death as well; There's not an agent free on earth Whate CT our teachers tell. It maps the curving orbits out Of highest spheres in space, And governs every humans route In every land and place. Mans Master is the Universe He plays the part of one Who in life's drama must rehearse The play that's never done.

Some Lies Nailed-A Letter From Mrs.
 Hall.

Some Lies Nailed-A Letter From Mrs.
 Since the decease of Comrade J.
 Edward Hall, one or two sensa- tional and ghoulish newspapers en- deavored to cast obloquy upon his associates in the labor movement, especially casting slurs upon the members of the Socialist Party. One of these papers was the "demo- cratic" Duly Neacs, which pub lished the miserable lie that Mir. Hall was thrown aside as soon as he showed evidence of declining strength and power. This was pub lished in connection with a mass of other rot concerning labor advo- cates. The Brooklyn Liberallst, claiming to be labor paper, but in reality nothing more than small financial speculation owned, or at least controlled, by two compositors holding situations on a Brooklyn daily paper, Messrs. Moire and Dixon, reprinted the whole lying

AWFUlLY CONSERVATIVE.
Chief Arthur, of the Locomotive En.
 gineers, Against Strikes.

A dispatch from Chicago, which has just been published in some of the daily papers, indicates proba- bility that Chief Arthur has served his last term at the head of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi. neers, though it is said that he is a candidate for reelection. When asked, at large meeting of engi- neers, whether in the event of an expected reduction of wages on the Union Pacific Railway, where all the engineers are Brotherhood men, he would order strike, he said "Under no circumstances of which l can conceive shall l ever sanction another strike"
 A murmur of surprise tinged with indignation arose, but ceased as the Chief continued "My reason for this decision is two-fold. In the first place, l am opposed to strikes on general principles; in the second place, to strike would be practically suicide; for, owing to the memorable laws of supply and demand and the large number of unemployed engi- neers in the country, it would take but an exceedingly short space of time to fill all our places.' ;
 "But, sir" broke in the ques- tioner, Suppose reduction of wages should occur on the Union Pacific system, where the Brother hood is so thoroughly equipped as to obtain the granting of everything they ask, would you not authorize a strike to resist 1t :?'
 Without a moments hesitation the Chief replied: "No, sir; I would not. I trust-I belieye-that no reduction of wages is to be made; but should there be, and the men follow my advice, they will accept the reduction. l shall never sane tion another strike, "
 Chief Arthur stopped, and the meeting adjourned. Murmurs ot discontent have been heard ever since. It was known that the Chiei had a strong dislike to strikes, but that his conservatism was so extreme as his speech showed it to be was never dreamed of.
 Perhaps he meant that he would not be in a position to order strikes His successor may be of differen opinion.

screed from its counterpart, the Daily Ne'cs.
 The obvious intention of the NerS was to discourage men of hon. esty and ability who are inclined to give thelr services l1 the interest of Organized Labor, and to slur the members of labor organizations.
 A friend of the Hall family brought these islanders to the notice of Mrs. Hall, who was much pained by the cruel inslnuatons, and dur ing the course of this week the fol. lowing letter was received at the ADVOCATE office from her for pubh- cation:
 NEW YORK, June ,, 1889, To the Editor of He HorhmenS ldrocdte' DEAR SlR.-I wish you would please correct false statement made in the Duly NelcS and copied in the Brooklyn LiberdliSt to the effect that my husband died in abject poverty. Such was not the case, His many friends rallied around him in his failing health, and he received every needed comfort that it was possible for money to procure. By publishing this you will oblige,
 Yours very truly,
 MRS. NJ. HALL
 It was when our departed com rade found himself compelled by his failing health to quit active work that his friends showed their appreciation and affection for him; and when the story of his life is written, it will show that the esteem in which J. Edward Hall was held was not misplaced.
 The friends of Comrade Hall and all who knew the circumstances of his last days cannot help despising such cowardly and ghoulish news paper jackals as the Duly NewS and the Ltbeya2jSt.

 "Karl Marks Theory of Exchange will be the subject at next Friday even- ing's Labor Lyceum meeting, Con- rade Adam Rosenberg, lecturer.
 The Brooklyn American Section has expressed a desire for the publication in the WoRKMEN's ADVOCATE of the proceedings of the National Executive Committee.

 The German Section, s. L. F.. has withdrawn its delegates from the United German Trades Unions Society. In consequence of this act Henry Foth has withdrawn as candidate for repre- sentative to the Paris Congress of the United Trades.
 Tue Voice, organ of the Prohibition ists, says, in regard to the Johnstown tragedy, that Git was the duty of the State somehow to protect itself from the terrible loss of life and property" This would indicate that there is an other issue besides prohibition of the liquor traffic.
