Letting the Cat out of the Bag.

The bureau of false pretences that is running the Free Trade agitation with high-sounding protestations in favor of the workingmen had better look to Mir. Jos. Mann of Illinois. Elected temporary Chairman of the Democratic State Con. vention, he delivered himself of fiorid speech, the first part of which was de- voted to the beauties of Free Trade, and the last part of which was addressed against the tyranny of compulsory edu- cation.
 Plutocracy may have different cloaks, flags, and nationalities, but it is alike everywhere. The liberty of contract for which John Bright, Richard Golden and other British Free Traders so strenu- ously contended in behalf of the child so as to enable them to work it to death in their factories IS cropping up here, too. Compulsory education would be a spoke in the wheels of child la bor. It would be a powerful aid in preventing that liberty of contract on the part of the child that factory legislation is meant to stop. It would wrest from the greedy fingers of the capitalist many surplus-producing infant. In short, it would interfere seriously with their avaricious plans. Consequently It must not be allowed.
 That the American Free Trader should dislike compulsory education act as much as his protectlonist brother, is natural. That he should say so frankly, is less natural. Gentlemen of the Free Trade bureau of agitation, muzzle the indiscreet Joseph Mann of Illinois.

PRINTERS IN CONVENTION
The International Typographical Union Declares Unanimously in Favor of
 International Copyright.

The thirty eighth annual session of the International Typographical Union was called to order by President E. T. Plank last Monday morning in Atlanta, Ga, with over l4O delegates present, repre- senting Canada and almost every State in the Union. Among the delegates were two ladies, Miss Taylor of Circin- natl and Miss Snaltroph of Rochester.
 The morning session was devoted to the work of organization and the ap- pointment of committees. The after noon session was taken up with routine work. After adj adjournment the delegates were taken out driving, visiting points of interest in and about the c,ty. The election of officers is to take place on Thursday. The most important action of the first day was the passing of reso- lutions endorsing in strong terms the Chase Breckinridge International Copy. right bill, and directing Secretary Me Clevey to communicate the same to Congress. The resolutions urge Con- gress to pass the bill as originally intro duced, including type setting and non importation clauses. The action taken was by the unanimous voice of the Convention.

berry Festival-Their Sunday Meet ings on the Common are a
 Great Success.
 The Boston Section of the S. LIP. held it's annual strawberry festival in Twilight Hall on Tuesday evening, June 8. It was successful and delightful occasion in every respect and was cre- dit both to the cause of socialism and to it's projectas, Mrs. s. H. Merrifield, Com. rade H. w. Brown and Comrade F. F. O'Neil. Fully four hundred persons participated in the festivity. Immedi- ately after the festival there was beau- tiful rendition of D. c. Sing by MT. A Miller, an intelligent reading by Miss Bessie Brown and charming duet by Miss Blanche Morrison and Miss Stella Churchill, Then followed superb bass solo by MT. Charles Kruse and the reel tation of 'The old Surgeons Story" with much ability by Miss Annie Brown. After this very pathetic song illustrat- i've of the fierceness of life under a competitive system was given by Miss Mamie Small, little girl of some six or or seven years Next came "A Song of Liberty" composed for the occasion by Capt E. S. Huntington and sung with much effect by his son, Charles P. Hun. tington, who hailed from Harvard Uni. versity with other students. Then appeared the Arbeiter Liedertafel, con- posed of some thirty voices, which gave grand chorus and received several encores. This chorus was great, in fact to nlany it showed wonderful musical ability. After the completion of the literary and musical portions of the program and an address by Comrade David Taylor on socialism appropriate to the occasion and which was greeted with applause, dancing was indulged in until that hour had arrived when all good socialists believe they should be where they may dream of the beauties of the coming socialist commonwealth. On Sunday afternoon meetings on the Common are we'll attended, there being generally from one to two thousand people present. And so eager are they to hear what may be said of new and better order of things that they show great unwillingness to go away when the speaking has ceased and remain in front discussing what has been said.

Must Provide Seperate Cars

washington, March 3.-The supreme
court the United States TO-DAY rem
dered decision in the case of the
Louisville, New Orleans & Texas against
the State of Mississippi, involving the
validity of the Mississippi state law re-
curing all railroads operating within
the state to provide seperate compart-
ments or cars for white and Colored
people. The question at issue was.
whether the la " is a regulation of inter-
state commerce and therefore beyond
the power of the state. The supreme
court OF Mississippi, when it decided the
case, held that the statue applied solely
to commerce within the state, and that
construction being the construction of
the statue by its highest court is accep-
ted as conclusive by the supreme court
OF the United States III it's decision to-
DAY. The court sees no error in the
ruling of the supreme court of Missis-
slppl. and its judgment aed decision adj
verse to the railroad companies are af-
tlrmed. Judge Brewer read the opinion
OF the court, to which Justices Harlan
and Bradley briefly dissented.

There is perhaps no subject on which
people who delight to be smart differ
more than ION the proper pronunciation
of words, particularly when taken from
foreign languages. The following jingle
written by one of jolly party which
rode on THE Burlington from Minne-
apolis to st. Louis some time since, illus
crates the different recommendations of
r-o-u-t e-whether "rowt'' or root"
Hear the pilgrims joyful shout:
The Burlington's dandy route,
Other lines we henceforth shoot,
This is the only first-class route;
Rival claims we hereby scout,
None can please us but this route;
Locomotives never foot
Half as nice as on this route;
And the roadbeds hereabout,
All are rough, except this route;
All in all beyond dispute,
The Burlington's the banner route"
On the pronunciation there is SO. ne
latitude for choice, but not on the ques.
ton whether .eTbe Burlington" is the
best and favorite line everywhere to

We presentto our readers today. the
portrait and . short biographical sketch
Of Mr.. Robert F. Hunton, of St. Paul.
the latest addition to, and the youngest
member of the Ramsey county bar.
The subject of the sketch was born in
Chatham, Ont, July 5, 1867 and there
fore is only % years of age. At the age
of twelve years he entered Wilberforce
Educational Institute. Canada, under
the instruction of Alfred NJ. Lafferty,
M. A., the great Canadian mathema-
tician. He pursued the regular course
and graduated from the institution at
lineage ofsixteeR, at the head of his class,
winning the first prize, silver medal.
In 1883 he entered the Chatham
Collegiate Institute taking the full four
years course. He also demonstrated his
remarkable mental ability and out of a
class numbering ffty-seven, of which he
was the only Colored member, he had
the honor Of being awarded the first
prize in mathematics and the second in
A|NOAA 4OoO pOS1t1Ou.
He taught school short time in Bux-
ton and Dresden, Ont, but that branch
of the professions was not in keeping
with his ambitions desires, though he
was successful as a teacher. In the fall
of '87 he arrived in St. Paul and had the
good fortune to be taken into the office
of Minnesota's greatest criminal lawyer
w. w. Erwin, Esq, and at once began
to read law. He applied himself SO
assiduously to his study of Blackstone
and his contemporaries that he some
what impaired his health and on the
advice of his physician in 80 he took a
trip of several months through the
South. Returning TO St. Paul he again
began work at his chosen profession and
on the first day of last month he was
examined, passed, and was admitted to
practice in all the courts of the State of
Minnesota. Mr.. Hunton is the third
Colored lawyer in Minnesota and he
starts out with bright prospects. He
has good reputation and is generally
liked by the people whose good will and
best wishes he has in which they are
heartily seconded by TIE APPEAL, Mr..
Hunton has stuck out his shingle for the
present at rooms 8, 9and 10 Mannheimer
Block, where he will be pleased to re-
ceive any who may desire his services.
