Labor Must Control the Tools.

A writer in late issue of The Union
Printer advances an idea concerning the
use of typesetting machines which is
certainly worth thinking about It is re-
ported that many prominent newspapers
have placed orders for from ten to one
hundred of the Rogers Typographs. The
machines will not be sold, but will be
rented for 81 per day. The meat in the
scheme proposed by The Union Printers
contribution is found in this paragraphs:
''Let the typographical unions demand
that each machine be turned over to the
operator, the rent and other expenses for
running it to be deducted from his week
ly wages. Let union printers refuse to
operate any machines except on these
terms. Then let the men. charge their
employers the same price per 1000 ems
as how. In this way, if they have more
composition to do they will earn more
money; if the same amount Of compost
ton, they will get through quicker and
thus reduce their hours of labor In
either case it is the workingmen who
will get the full advantage of the inven-
ton, not the employing capitalist.
In an office like The New York World
the rent Of space occupied by its 100
machines would be considerable sum,
but still the foregoing idea is not a bad
one.

SHOOT THEM LIKE DOGSI
Mrs. Frank Leslie's Interview in Chicago
Stirs Up the Socialists.

Mrs. Frank Leslie's Interview in Chicago
Stirs Up the Socialists.
At meeting of socialists held in Chi
cage the interview with Mrs. Frank
Leslie in The Tribune of that city was
the subject for discussion. The follow
ing is excepted from report of the
meeting which appeared in The Tribune:
Mrs. Woodman offered the following
resolutions:
THAT the gentle, tender hearted rep
resentative of Americas uppertendom
who has done Chicago, during the last
week, the honor to visit it, and has
kindly consented to enlighten the gen.
eral public as to her: views on the indus
trial situation and recommend course
of treatment warranted to cure in all
cases for discontinued workers of all
nationalties, is hereby entitled to the
thanks of this meeting for voicing in so
unmistalIable manner the secret senti-
ment of the self styled elite of our great
cities in regard to the working classes
and the grievances of which they COM
plain"
Mrs. Woodman then made long adj
dress, in the course of which she said:
"'Shoot them like dogs! This is how
Mrs. Leslie would have the anarchists
treated. So declared The Tribune. 1t
seems strange, does it not, that a wom-
ans lips should utter such words as
these? Stranger still that woman's
neart could beget the thought Even
the coarsest and most cruel men shrink
a little from the woman who advocates
coarseness and cruelty, and they are
right. From woman-the wife, mother,
sister, daughter-one naturally expects
gentle thoughts and humane sentiments,
and so to hear an expression which would
do credit to the most illiterate and bru-
talized officer on Chicago's police force
.all from the lips of one whose beauty
and grace have become a household word
in the United States cannot fail to have
called forth a faint shudder even from
SO callous an individual as Chicago
newspaper man.
Shoot them down like dogs! Treat
them like mad dogs!' How redolent
with refinement. how suggestive of fem
mime deliC-lcy, purity and womanly
sweetness is this language! Has this
woman no children? No; she is child
less. She tells you SO. Il have no
child's stocking to fill with candy and
dolls Christmas morning. There is d
world of pathos in this thought. After
all, with all her wealth of diamonds, she
is to be pitied. Had she been a mother
perchance she would have thought of
the little children left fatherless, of the
wives and mothers bereft OF their only
support and left to struggle single
handed in consequence of that shameless
and infamous execution Nov II, which
Mrs. Leslie characterizes as "a brave and
wise thing"

OUR POPULATION,

The announcement by the census
bureau of the oficial census of Texas
placing the total population of the state
at 1882 ,220. is not only disappointing to
Texans, but calls to mind the frequent
charges of fraud brought against the
official count, and especially the terrific
onslaught made the other day by q New
York paper on it. How much or little
ruth there may be in the charge, It is
useless TO speculate about in advance OF
the proofs, If such are in waiting. As
far as the count in Texas is concerned, It
appears to be sadly deficient. No one
supposed that 1t would fall short OF two
and half millions. But that turns out
to have been q most extravagant and
hight estimate. The shortage in
the official count exceeds quarter of a
million-that is, lacks that much of
realizing the hopes of all of US. How
much of that Ia due to an overes timate
on our part, or how much to the blunder-
Ing, ineficiency or worse, of the census
officials will never be known. That the
work of taking the census was done in
the most careless and haphazard
fashion, was we'll known bsfore
it was half completed, and num-
erous complaints were lodged with
the superintendent concerning the char
aoter Of work being done by the enumer-
ators.
If there are 2 500, 900 people in Texas,
then the state is cheated by the new
census out of two congressman OF the new
apportionment to be made during the
next session of congress. Whether the
cheat was the result wholly of the Billy
Bowlegs sort Of work done by the
enumerators, or was in part the result of
a scaling down of the returns ia the
census Office, makes but little difference.
The result is the same, and the state is
defrauded out of her due representation
in congress. This contamination is di-
rectly in the line of the Republican
policy to reduce the Democratic repre-
AZ Luo bCAL COuSTcsSs We u
not need to ask lis the swiudle lnten-
tional?' Look at New York city. where

made by the supervisors were further
scaled down 1873, 600 in the census office.
Was that merely accidental? Why, then,
do ell the accidents Of that kind occur
only in Democratic communities? AS

the house with Democratic majority of
10, GOO. Little wonder Is it that Mr..
Porter has gone to Europe to avoid the
storm OF dissatisfaction that is gathering
force as the Official count is being given
out.

Tillmanites anticipated after they had

has recently encountered stormy blasts
that threaten to make fotsam and jetsam
of the Tillman craft. A short time ago
the Straightouts unexpectedly nominated
Judge Haskell for governor. As Haskell
appears &c be entirely acceptable to the
Republicans, who say they viii vote for
him, the nomination would seem to have
been made in pursuance OF an UNDER
stariiug between themselves and the
anti Tillmanites.
As the Haskell Democrats have control
of the election machinery, and the al
lied Republicans and Democrats largely
outnumber the Tillmanites, the outlook
for the latter is not as cheering as IL
might be. In fact IL is quite blue, and
Tiilman and his friends are in state of

miscegnstion that threatens to blast
