Chief Marshal Monk then introduced
Editor Weissman of the Baker's Jour-
nal, N. Y. who made half hours adj
dress, which was listened to attentive
ly by about half those present, the
other hal preferring to enjoy the af-
ternoon In another way. The burthen
OF Editor Weissman's speech was
against capital. He eulogizod Labor
Day which was not the gift OF capital.
1t had been achieved by the labors OF
tho workingmen after hard years Of
struggle and though Delaware had
not adopted 1t, in legal form, many
States in this country and in Europe
were now celebrating the first great
victory of labor over capital. This, he
said, gives encouragement, no matter
now hard tho yoke OF white slavery,
referring TO the demonstration of
the day MIR. Weiesman said. thnt the
Jay GOulds AMI the NanderbiIts who
run this country with the ,salmighty
dollar" know That II means more rtIGa
picnic where man goes to Clrink
his beer or whisky and smoke cigar.
Mi. Weis5man then at some epI.--
siderable length showed the adVan-
tages OF banding together and work.
Ing to each Others interests. You must
have more time he said. and you can
only get 1t by refusing the long hours
OF labor. In Australia, where they
have short hours, the workingmen
spend the time they have outside OF
the shops In educating themselves and
enjoying the society of their families
and friends. They do not carouse, but
arc improved In morals and condition.
We must band together, said Mr..
WniaalntI IA 4 Il Ia. q
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson
and Thomas layne. true. ii therB
were shorter hours OF labor there
would not be million of tlamps In
the country.
In tagging union he said, remember
that capital Is organized and can be
used TO destroy YOU. The trades both
IN Europe and America must he under
one organization. He was a repre-
sentative OF the International Bakers
Onion OF europe. England, Scotland.
Ireland and America.
I'VE know no white or no colored
man; We know no Protestant or no
Catholic. no American or no French
man; VIC are all on the same footing,
lighting the great battle OF labor
against capital, Capital until twenty
years ago worked ON the ignorance
OF the workingmen and kept them
HBhtlnR elcll ollef. But now the men
are educated TO their rights"
The lecturer said, we are not reyo-
lutlonists and do not believe in throw
ing dynamite bombs, but IL ever capi-
tai again dares to send its hired cut
thrt ats, to shoot down the working
man who is trying to get his rights,
the. almighty arm OF labor will arise
and crush out its opponents. Capital
must know that labor will stand OPP
preston to acertain point, but beyond
that point 1t will not stand 1t. We can
settle tho problem peacefully.
Mr.. Welssman referring to the work.
ingmcn going to the polls warned
them against voting for the emissaries
OF the men against whom they were
fighting, and advised them to vote for
a labor candidate and II there were no
labor candidate not to vote at all. To-
day. he said tho streets of New York
arc filled with 10000 men on parade.
Twenty eight States now have legal
lied Labor Day, and he hoped next
year would add Delaware to the num-
Der. He urged his audience to show
capital their strength by organizing,
and II their rights were denlod to take
the reins OF government in their own
hnnds and work out the labor problem
You, he said. do all the
work and get nothing to show for it.
while your bosses reap the result OF
your labor and build palaces to live
In. Ten thousand men have all the
power, own the railroads and big
works, and you have nothing.
