"ESTABLlSHED PRINCIPLES"

In another column will be found the
SYNOPSIS of an address delivered by
Prof. Francis A. Walker at the annual
meeting of the American Economic AS
sociation. From a man of less note such
an addres would deservedly pass unno-
ticed. But Walker is big bug
among the economists" sO-called; the
great dailies could not afford to treat his
trash with contempt, and they served 1t
to their readers in the condensed form
in which we in turn serve il to ours.
1t will be observed that Prof. Walker
speaks with some emotion of "the extra
ordinary growth of pseudo,socialism
under the local name of nationalism.'
OF the natural growth of real socialism
he does not speak at all, probably be-
cause there is nothing extraordinary in
the fact of its rapid advance under pre-
sent conditions. Nationalism, however,
has no great terrors for him, He realizes
that the gentlemen "of the more fortu-
nate classes" who have entered national
ism (or pseudo-socialisml are naturally
averse to making it class movement,
such as real socialism is and necessarily
must be. They have not yet learned,
he says. 'by careful study of history
and of the material conditions of human
existence, within what narrow limits
exertions for the ameliOration of man
kind must necessarily be confined. :

IMMIGRATION.

Official records show that 1886 ISL
immigrants came 10 this country be-
tween the founding of the government
in 1899 and the end of the fiscal year
1889 3d. About third Of the whole
came within the last ten years. Records
have been kept of immigrants apart
from other passengers since 1856, but Of
late years no count has been made of
immigrants from British North America
and Mexico; and as the immigration
from Canada is VIGOROUSLY large, the
official figure given above is considerably
below the actual aggregate.
The years Of heaviest immigration
were those from 1880 to 1884. Germany
for the last years has sent us annually
many more emgrantS than any other
single country, except the United King
dom taken az a whole.
The following table shows the num-
Der of immigrants by sex and countries
in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1890;

HELP THE MINE RS

The special committee appointed last
Sunday by the New York Central Labor
Federation to devise ways an means for
the relief of the Alabama miners, issued
the following appeal to the various labor
organizations Of this city and vicinity;
CENTRAL LABOR FEDERATION.
New York, Dec, n, 1890
COMRADES: The miners of Alabama
are engaged in fearful struggle.
Some time ago, overwork, underpay,
the truck system Of robbery, and IA
thousand untold expressions drove them
to despair Ragged, grimy, hungry, but
men at last, they cast away their tools,
emerged from the dark pits, and in the
free light Of the sun struck for their
rights.
The battle is raging, Capitalism in
it's worst fOrm-~Alabama capitalism
is not only starving them but supplantng
them with convict labor, hired from the
State
Think Of it. a so.callcd free State
This is worse than slavery ever was,
even in Alabama for the slave never
was forced to compete for bread with
convicted thieves and murderers,
OF course the pinkertons are there
also.
COMRApEs:-Those miners won't sur
render. They call ont to us for sym
pathy, for aid. Shall we turn deaf ear
to them? Shall we look ON drily while
they suffer and die in the cause of
labor2
No; you will listen to this appeal at
your next meeting and do whaty0u can.
Whatever you may give, give quickly.
The Special Relief Committee

In reply to this appeal the New York
American Section of the $, l., F.. at its
business meeting last Monday, collected
from the few comrades present the sum
of Sl720. Other organizations will I'M
questionably act with equal promptness
at their next meeting, although some
heavy drafts have lately been and may
still be made upon their treasures in
support Of the Rochester shoemakers
and the New York piano varnishers.
Many persons besides, in this city and
elsewhere, may desire to individually
contribute their mites TO the relief of the
Alabama miners. If they will kindly
send their pennies, or dimes, or dollars,
to the WoRKMEN's ADVOCATE, We shalt
duly acknowledge receipt in the columns
of this paper

Owing to the holidays the delivery Of
this issue of the WoRKMEN's ADVOCATE
will probably be delayed one day.

The number of Americans travelling
abroad has nearly trebled in the last
twenty years. In 1870, 1856 of the
passengers landed on our shores were
recorded as american citizens return
ing from abroad whereas in 1888 the
number thus recorded was %, 529; it was
sS,O17 in 1890.
The above figures are interesting in
many respects. 1t will be noticed, among
other things, that the number of male
immigrants from all countries except
Ireland is largely in excess of that of the
females. The ratio, however, varies
greatly. While about in of the Ger
man immigrants are females, the pro-
portion is only in for Italy, and in
II for Austria Hungary. Again, COM
parison Of the tables with the state of
business in the various years named,
would show that the movement of immi-
grafton is even more largely controlled
by the condition of affairs here than by
the industrial and political circumstances
of European countries.

A Curious Fact.

One reason why the farmers and
workingmen Of France have so much
to invest in Government bonds at low
rates of interest is in the fact that they
have not the brilliant opportunities Of
putting their savings in Mutual Saw
ings and Distribution Fund Associa-
tions and other magnificent financial
enterprises that swarm in this country.
OF coure, II the French people could
invest their savings at the rate of 81 25
a week in q financial scheme out of
which they could draw $500 or 81 900
at the end OF two or three years they
would have very little money for the
buying OF Government bonds at three
per cent interest. But, curiously
enough, saws the Philadelphia Record,
the more money that is put into
" Security Investment and Loan AS
sociations and like schemes promis-
ing large returns in this country the
less the investors have for other uses.

The Old Phoebe Method Nos Much
Better Now.

Talking about the Australian bal
lot law" said an old timer, "I'd like
TO have had 'em try it on in early
days in Pioche. The boys were
marched to the polls with their ticket
between thumb and finger, and a
striker at their side right to the ballot
box, to see that it went in before a
cent was paid.
A long line was in waiting in 1872 at
the polls in Pioche, when the hour
came and the polls closed. Some hot
words passed between the strikers and
voters who got left, and before one
could understand the matter, the
shooting commenced right before the
wicket 1.-the polls, and in less time
than it takes to tell it six men were
shot and carried away on stretches.
Henry Phillips familiarly known as
Big Phil) was the Democratic nominee
for County Treasurer, a nomination
which he obtained after a determined
opposition from the Irish wing of the
party. He was elected, much TO the
disgust OF the same element, and on
the evening when the result Of the
election was known, Phil, in high
glee, was passing the corner OF Meadow
Valley and Lecour streets, and as he
went through crowd of his enemies,
he heard one OF them say, Hisht,
there's Big Phil. He's got the SACK
referring, OF course, to the county
funds. And Immediately he heard
another IN coarse tones under his
breath. Good by, sack" The ex-
preston indicated the prevailing dis
trust then in the successful politician,
and the same distrust still exists. and
will continue until the adoption OF the
Australian ballot, or something SINH
lar that will aid in purifying politics.

The giantess of giantesses has come
to New York from Scotland county,
Mo. She is a bashful miss OF IS
years, s feet 2 inches in hight, al
though she only weighs about 260
pounds. Her name is Ella Ewing
and she is the only offspring of pa
rents of ordinary size. She can touch
the tips of 10-foot pole laid across
her breast. Her feet are eighteen
inches long and her hands thirteen
inches. Her chest is 60 inches. She has
only just left school and has by no
means got her growth yet. Her health
is robust and at her meals she devours
with great relish three or four times as
much as the heartiest eater. 1t takes
32 yards of goods to make dress for
her. Her parents are with her and
are going to take her to Europe this

BROTHERS and sisters.

Brothers and sisters are all the bet
ter for sharing one another's studies
and games up to a certain point. The
girl who can handle a tennis racket
and croquent mallet vindicates her
right to consideration. The boys will
never speak of her as "only girl, "
and she will be all the franker and
none the less sweet for a healthy
mixture of work and play. Good
comradeship between brothers and
sisters is thing much to be desired /;
it serves the girls from prudery and
the boys from boorishness, sweetens
the natures OF both, and acts by
restraining every one from doing or
saying what would be shameful in the
eyes OF the other side"

At an informal reception held after
Mr.. Henry Stanley's lecture in Scran-
ton the other evening, says the Boston
Post, gentleman remarked to the ex-
plorer: Zone of the things in your
book, In Darkest Africa that inter-
ested me most was your vivid account
OF the sufferings OF your party in
Starvation Camp but one thing l
never could understand. When men
were dying for want Of food, why
didn't they fish, since they were SO
near the river?" Mr.. Stanley's face
was a study. He looked at his
questioner as if dazed by a blow.
" Why" he exclaimed, and then
hesitated in evident surprise and con-
sternation for several moments, "why,
/ don't believe any one ever thought
of itl" His questioner thereupon sug-
gested that the next time he formed
an exploring party he should take a
Yankee with him.

The Dual KfiIiBg OF Two Noted
Characters.

Characters
All old timers will recollect the kill
ing Of Peasley and Barnhart which oc-
Cured in Carson in 1864.
PeasIey was down at Carson and
was sitting in a bar-room with his
feet resting on the gas pipe railing
surrounding large stove, in which a
good fire was burning, when Barnhart
entered. He noticed Peasley, who
did not see him, and walked directly
towards him. As he reached the side
OF his victim he drew a large six
shooter and showing it against Peasley,
fred two shots into his body. The
latter sank in his chair and his head
fell lifeless on his bosom. At this,
Barnhart ceased firing and struck his
dying victim twice on the head with
his weapon. Jumping to his feet,
Peasley drew his revolver, but at the
first movement Barnhart stated TO
run and succeeded in passing into an
other room and closing a glass door
between himself and his pursuer.
Peasley did not stop to open the
door, but showed his pistol through
the glass and fred. The shot found
Barnhart's heart for its mark and he
fell dead upon the floor. Peasley also
fell, but he was cool and collected, and
after requesting that word be sent to
his brother, Andy, asserted the ruling
passion strong in death, by asking his
friends to pull off his boots. When
this was accomplished and he had
been assured that Barnhart was dead,
he breathed his last without regret

The origin Of the National Marine
Band at Washington is most curious.
Nearly hundred years ago, says the
New York World, Yankee captain
kidnapped strolling troop of mu-
sicians on the shores of the Bay Of
Naples and brought them to this coun-
try. From this handful of Italians
the band was developed. The descend
ants OF these stolen Italians are now
