In the course Of a recent sermon Rev.
DR.. Ryckman, of Ottawa, said:|
The insane demand of all classes of
society for cheap goods forced manufac-
turers to provide such articles at starv
ton wages, SO that 1.-THE Song of the
Shirt" was as true today as when Hood
wrote it. The desire of employers to ac-
cumulate wealth by abnormal profits on
n hand and the demand of society for
cheap goods on the other were the upper
and neither millstones which were grind
ing the laboring classes to powder. A
calculation has been made for him which
placed the wages of the lumbermen fol
twenty-five years past at geo, 900 900
Besides this sun the laborers by theil
work had earned for their employers
vast amount of property-mills. wharves
steamers and barges, farms, timber lin
its, bank stock and railway stock-wortl
at a low estimate $50, 900, 900. All the
while the employers had lived generous
ly, IL not luxuriously, while the work
ingman had all he could do most Of
the time to make ends meet, and at pres
ent, in the majority of cases, was not
far removed from poverty. This was
utterly unjust and unfair.

$1,000 IN II for the Engineer.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-One day last week
the steamship Teutonic of the White Star
Line. Capt. Irving, dropped anchor in
Queenstown harbor, having made the
run from New York in five days, twenty
one hours and three minutes. This beats
all former eastern records OF ocean grey
hounds. The news was flashed across the
Atlantic and caused no end Of comment
among steamship and railway officials.
The prediction made by Capt. Irving
some weeks ago that a vessel would cross
the ocean inside OF five days before the
world was ten years-older was accepted as
q true prophecy. Among the passengers
were Curt Gum, the well known sporting
man OF this city. and Ed. Leichtenstein
of the bucket shop firm of Jas. Murphy
& Co. In was more on account of their
pseseuce on the ship than anything else
that the fast run was made. Alter the
ship was two days out of New York, Gum
and Leichtenstein circulated among the
passengers offering bets OF $40 up to 5000
that the Teutonic would break all former
records. There wis no trouble to find
takers at long odds. When no more bets
could be found Gum and Leichtenstein
let the engineer OF the vessel know that
there was 81, 900 in it for him if the leu
tonic reached Queenstown at a certain
time. The next day the vessel made 483

actly 9;55 O'Clock on the morning of Oct.

Tom Mann, ex-president of the Lon
don Dockers' union, has just delivered
IN address in which he described the
legislation which he deems necessary for
the final solution of the labor question.
His scheme includes the total abolition
of overtime; the shortening. by legal
compulsion, of the hours of labor to for
ty-eight per week; the maintenance by
the state of all whose employment, from
whatever cause, is intermittent; the re-
fusal by the working Glasses to buy any
goods not produced under trade union
restrictions; the control of all munich
pal authorities by trade unions, who
will insist upon ~subsidizing "labor" out
of public funds; and, finally, the educa-
ton of the working classes at the ex-
pense of the state in what he considers
the true principles of industrial cooper
alton. When all these things are
achieved, he thinks the labor question
will be solved, and nothing will remain
but to lead workingmen to "delve into
new subjects that shall furnish them
with new tastes, new desires and new
aspirations Exchange.

Another Labor Congress.

Those labor organizations of Chicago
with socialistic tendencies have formed,
in conjunction with several sympathetic
societies, the International Labor Con-
gress association for the purpose of hold
ing a congress during the Worlds fair.

follows: Central Labor union, Combined

THE AUSTRALIAN Ia VA sue
CESS.

In al the states in which the Australian
ballot has been tried for the first time this
year the result wa invariably satisfactory.
In Colorado the ballot was arranged on a
different plan from thdt adopted in Wyo-
ming. Here the names of the candidates
grouped under the respective Offices for
which they were nominated. There the
full ticket of each political party are
printed side by side on the same sheet Of
paper. Each ticket has a heading to
designate it in addition 20 some
device which the rarity may
adopt. II a man wants to vote the
full Democratic or Republican ticket it is
not necessary for him to mark a cross af-
ter zach name, but to simply mark an X
under the device, which indicates bis in
tentlon.
Taken altogether, there seems to have
been more mistakes made under this ar
rangement than under the ballot plan
adopted in Wyoming. However the gen
eral principles OF the schemes have taken
strong holo everywhere. Within certain
limits it tends to purify the ballot and 10
certain districts it undoubtedly gives freer
expression to the will OF the people. The
Australia ballot system has come TO STAY.
Another antipodean idea. the Torrents
system of land transfers will just as surely
be adopted in the United States and will
eventually become quite as popular.

We have received a souvenir copy Of
the Memphis Evening Sciniasr which in
some respects is about the most gorgeous

should prove an admirable advertisement
for the handsome city of Memphis as it
contains some most artistic views. There
is only one criticism that we have to make
upon it-pictures of a dozen or fifteen

companion of the old stars and
stripes. Now, l have no hatred in my
heart for the southern soldier for l
know that drawer men as a whole
never shouldered a musket but when
they found that they were out fought
on fair field and gave up their I'M
holy attempt to tear from our glori-
Gus old flag some of the bright stars
which adorned its assure folds, did
they not some times say to us that
the old flag with all its stars still in
tact was their flag as we'll as ours?
As united nation we cannot have
but one flag and that has got to be
the old flag, the glorious Stars and
Stripes, that led the boys in blue to
victory and a united country once
more. Let there be no enmity in our
hearts towards our southern brothers,
but with love in our hearts say to
them, one flag, one country for all.

the tunnel is target. The Lake Shore,
as soon as it was stopped by the target,

fifty feet to the mouth of the tunnel and
waved his lantern across the track. The
