a southern Editor SendS u Challenge tO
Another One of the Profession.
Col. Jno. NJ. Fleming, editor of the Knox
vile Daily Sentinel, has received q chal-
lenge from James Phelan, owner of the
Memphis Daily Avalanche and representa-
tive in congress from the Tenth district of
Tennessee. Editor Fleming has refused
to accept the challenge, md exactly what
further steps, if any, Congressman
Phelan may take are not known. Editor
Fleming, instead of sending his nc.
acknowledgement of the receipt of the
communication by wire. by which agency
it was transmitted to him, published it in
the Sentinel and it lis the principal theme
OF conversation. Mr.. Phelan's challenge
came by telegraph from Washington last
Sunday. Editor Fleming in his reply
says that in times past the men who have
specially commanded his admiration were
those who had the courage to treat with
contempt the demand of the duelist, while
recognizing and insisting on the manly
right of self defense. The trouble be-
tween the two men was occasioned hy a
book Mr.. Phelan wrote. n school history
of Tennessee, winch was commented upon
III strong language by EdltOr flemins III

.Isaie Unable Quintal, of Montreal. Cam
ada, has gone to New York, accompanied,
il is asserted, by the pretty young wife of
u commercial traveller named Beallieu.
He leaves debts behind him TO the amount
of nearly $3.50, 600. The heaviest creditors
in Montreal are the Jacques Carter bank.
$37, 600; La Banque du Peuple, $26, QUO;
La Banque Vile Marie, So 900; La Banque
national, S2G,OOO, and Henri Dalbe, a pri-
vate banker, $4,000. To what extent the
French rural people on the south side of
the river are lefrauded, is not yet known.
Quintal enjoyed their entire confidence,
once they invested their money through
him. Mrs. Quintal is nearly heart broken
over her husbands actions.

bs men and not suuaws, TO take the land
and make 1 cir living.
Sitting Bull and the rest of the chiefs
took the opposite side of the question.
Sitting Bull expressed his hatred of the
government and the whites and said only

THE EIGHT-HOUR FIGHT.
Official Statement of its Present Con- ditiOn-The Victories Won and the
 Benefits Secured,

P. J. Mcclure, General Secretary of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Vice. president of the American Fed eration of Labor, states in this weeks issue of the Carpenter that up to date the eight-hour day has been secured this season for the carpenters in 27 cities and towns, affecting 23, 355 men in the trade. Nine cities are still out for the eight hour day, and six have compromised on nine hours. The nineh hour day has been established in 72 cities and towns, with the addition of eight hours day on Saturday in many instances. The con- cession affects 14,1S0 carpenters, while gains have been made in the shape of increased wages in IS other cities, affect ing 2,662 men.
 Thus the trade movement among the carpenters this spring has been success ful in IF cities and it has benefited 40. 199 workmen in that trade, and countless others in every branch of the ptduCS ldNC pCCA 1loO thc RdlIl- CTS. At present there are A strikes of carpenters still pending throughout the country, and in 16 of these fully 75 per cent. of the men have gained the de- mands for which the strikes were under. taken.
 The total amount Of funds from the general treasury of the United Brother hood expended to sustain the move- ment so far amounts to $35, 62S. The local unions have expended fully as large sum. The money from the gen. eral fund has been spent principally in 12 of the leading cities.
 This movement has resulted in the addition of forty-six new unions of car penters the past month, located in vari- ous sections of the country, and gain in membership of Il, ,241 members. This makes the United Brotherhood of Car penters and Joiners of America the largest trade organization in the world. It has 622 local unions in good standing, and membership of 6S,200 enrolled carpenters.
 The cities in which the eight-hour day is a fact are New York and Brooklyn. Alameda, Berkeley, Los Angeles, Oak land, San Jose and San Francisco, Cal. {; Chicago, Austin, Brighton Park, East St. Louis, Hyde Park, Grand Crossing, Kensington, Lake and South Chicago, Ill.,; Indianapolis and Charlottesville, Ind; Denver, Colorado Springs and Manitou Springs.

partially introduced, five men can now produce as much as fifteen did formerly
 He drew the attention of the audience to industries where six men out of seven have been displaced by machinery and have been either thrown into compulsory idleness by this displacement, or forced into employments for which they were ill-ftted, thereby becoming less effec- tive workers. He referred to the im- mense power yielded by steam in loco- motion alone, where it would require 65 ,O0O, 900 men to supply the motive power for transportation now supplied by the steam engine.
 In the light of these obvious facts the lecturer showed that the only reason why the wealth of the country is not more than abundant to supply all claims made upon it, is the anarchic, planless, individualistic competition that now prevails.
 The second objection, viz, that the workingman is continually improving and if let alone will eventually get abreast of the capitalist, was not less effectively exploded. The Professor observed that the cause of the preva- lence of this error in the minds of many was their inability to perceive when a mans position had improved or de- clined. Although it is true that our workmen possess many convenlences which were unknown to their ancestors, the things now lacking to make each complete man according to our notion of the term is manifold greater than was the deficiency of the workingman's means one hundred years ago to make each man in the eyes of his contempo- raries. In other words the difference of conditions between man and man has been constantly increasing and will con. tinue to do so, if not checked until it becomes unbearable; and it is well-nigh unbearable already.
 Incidentally he considered our readi- ness for immediate political action. He advised this step not because we may be assured of the election of our candi- dates, but because a political campaign offers the best opportunity for educat- ing the people in the benefits of our pro- positions, and for exposing the Pharisees who hypocritically speak of protecting the workingman while aiding with all their might in hie degradation.
 The chairman then announced sus. pension of the public lectures during the three summer months of June, July and August, and their intended reopeaing with increased vigor and effectiveness on the first Sunday in September.-H,G.

Closing Lecture of the Season-Are we

 Professor De Leons consideration and refutation of the two main arguments adduced to show that we are not ready for Nationalism, brought the 1SS9-90 season of public lectures at Nationalist Club No. 3 to happy and successful close.
 The first of these arguments is that the wealth of the country is insufficient to place all men on the elevated plane of life contemplated by the Nationalists. It was badly chattered by the Professors able showing of the capability of the produc- tive powers of the nation, # properly organized, to supply all the needs abun- dantly. He showed how, in those in dustries where machinery has been but

ton, to be held at Philadelphia,
 July 4.
 The National Executive Committee of the Textile Workers Progressive Union of America has issued the following call, which speaks for itself:
 To dH 7ertile Workers:-
 On July 4th and 9th a convention of the Silk Workers Federation and Textile Workers Progressive Union will be held at Philadelphia.
 All Textile, Workers Unions not yet connected with one of these bodies are invited to send delegates to represent them. The purpose of this convention Is to form solid and strong trade union of all textile workers. Our condition requires the unity of all existing organizations.
 United we stand! Divided we fall. Concentration and combination is the order of the day. Our manufacturers understand this thoroughly and have perfected their organizations throughout the country.
 Why should we remain disunitei? Who has the benefit of our disorgan za- | tion?
 Now, textile workers, turn out and send representatives to the convention. Further information can be had from OSCAR SEIDEI.,

LABOR IN THE F|ELD!
THE s. L. P. TAKES INDEPEN- DENT POLITICAL ACTION.


 York City will be Invited to a
 COnference-Rej0icing among the
 TOilers-COnsternatiOn among the
 Politicians.
 AS stated in our last number, joint meeting of the New York s. l.. P. was called last week by the Central Con- mittee, at the request of the American Section, for the purpose of deciding whether the party should take political action this fall. In answer to the call large attendance filled the Labor Ly ceum on Thursday evening, May g, and lively discussion, participated in by many members, followed the state ment of the question. Among those who warmly spoke in the affirmative was Alexander Jonas, who has just re, turned from Europe, where he met and conferred with the most prominent So- cialists of Germany, France, England, Switzerland, Austria and Ita?y. Finally, upon motion of Hugo vogt, the follow ing resolution was adopted, six Com. rades only voting in the negatives:
 Resoloed, That the party take politi cal action this fall and committee be appointed to issue a call inviting all labor organizations to attend a confer ence for the purpose of cooperating in the campaign with the Socialist Labor Party.
 The following committee was then ap- pointed: August Delabar, Alexander Jonas, H. M. Stoffers, Ernest Boehm, H. Schlueter, A. Waldinger, H. vogt, .C. Mayover, L. Miller, M. Hillkowitz, s. Stoleschnikof and E. Thimme.
 The committee is to hold its first meet ing on Thursday evening, May 29, and will immediately issue the call for conference, which will probably be held next week.
Workmen's advocate., 1890-05-31

The report or the acton taken by the Socialist Labor party spread rapidly among the workingmen throughout the city, although no morning daily except the Volkszeitung made any mention of the occurrence on the following day Considerable satisfaction was expressed by many of our English speaking fellow wage-workers who have come to realize that the s. L. P. is the only representa- tive labor body whose qualifications as to integrity and earnestness are such as to command absolute respect and to convey perfect idea of the nature and aspirations of the labor movement The 'labor politicians" were correspondingly depressed. They knew that with the Socialists at the helm their occupation was gone and nothing remained for them to do but to openly declare themselves in favor of one or the other of the old poodle machines.
 Before and after the meeting of the Eight-Hour ommittee-which by the way, now represents over 70 labor or ganizations-the matter was earnestly discussed in groups of delegates, who rejoiced that the s. L. P. had taken action and expressed the opinion that their respective Unions would cooper ate. The feeling is in favor of an early and vigorous campaign, to afford suf- ficient time and opportunities for agita- tion and education.
