The Anheuser-Busch Boycoot Officially
Declared Of.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 25. 1891.

PHILADELPHIA, Sent. %. 1891
The Anheuser Busch Brewing Association, St
Louis Mo:
GESTLEMEN-I am directed by the general
executive board of the Knights of Labor to
express to You their satisfaction at the ter
mination of the difficulty which has existed
between your association and one of our as
sembiles, and to say that from the inquiries
which have been made into all the circum-
stances surrounding the case they are fully
satisfied that you have throughout desired
to act with entire fairness toward our order
and your employees. The matters of which
we thought we had cause to complain we
now believe have all along been the result
of misunderstanding rather than of any
willingness on your part to deal unjustly
or even unkindly to your employees or our
order
The board further desires to express the
high appreciation in which they have
learned to hold your Mr.. Adolphus Busch,
whose frank and manly readiness to recog-
nize the rights of all worhingmen has been
pleasing contrast to the arrogance of too
many employers of labor.
In conclusion allow me to say that the
board considers the settlement arrived at
as alike honorable and satisfactory to all
concerned, and one which, while rejecting
the highest credit upon you, will be crafty
ing to all friends of organized labor.
JoHN Fl. HAYES.
General OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Knights of
Labor.
The above is a clear vindication of a Il
charges against this great brewing firm,
employing over four thousand men. Now
all members of the Knights of Labor and
Federation of Labor must make it their
duty to work in the interest of the Anheuser-
Busch brewing association to make good
the injuries sustained by the boycott, which
was unjustly and by mistake declared
against said Anheuser-Busch brewing asso-
cation.
Their beer is the most wholesome and
purest for the workingmen of all branches.

SOME PRIVATE HISTORY.

Mr.. Sam 81. Dixon very emphatically
denies the statement that he ever fav-
ored the sub-treasury scheme, and
proves the fact. Mr.. Dixon in his card
gives the public the benefit of this
piece Of private Alliance history:
At the time the sub-treasury plan came
up before the state Alliance for its consid-
Grafton it had been very little discussed in
Texas. The first time I ever gave it any
serious thought was just after the st. Louis
convention in 1890, when Evan Jones called
at the Mercury office and detailed to Mr.. Z.
Newton and myself and others present the
plan put forth. Mr.. Jones was fresh from
The convention and sore from defeat and in
a humor to talk plainly, which he did. And
he proceeded TO disseot the sub-treasury
and Macune. l have never heard man
more harshly dealt with. He was almost
ready TO lead revolt against MAGNETISM in
Texas, and had issued 4 bogus charter to
the Wheelers under which l presume he
proposed to fight. But he advised the Mer-
curry management to hold up for q while
and watch developments. The manage
ment watched developments, and it was
soon developed that Jones was preparing to
take the field in advocacy of the same Ma
cuneism that he so vigorously de-
nounced a few weeks before. This matter
had about escaped my mind and |
had ceased to reflect upon the frailties of
human nature when the Rev. Stump Ashby
was seen. The story of Evan Jones was
repeated, though in less elegant language.
He, too, had returned to Texas as mad as
"a wet hen, +" and was ready to aid in de-
feating the ''rascals," as he styled Macune
and his lieutenants at St. Louis. 'AI l
want said he, lis to 60 to the Ocala con-
ventiOn DIS a delegate and l will expose the
whole gang But a change came over his
dreams, for at the state Alliance the fol-
lowing August he was found doing the
bidding of the same men he had denounced.

on the garb Of decency and speaks prisons
for mother and babe.
To every Christian mother that mother in
the New York home Is a sister, and her
whom we all of US not long ago greeted as
| the bride of the nation we greet to-day as
| an American mother.
| We beg respectfully to congratulate Mr.
and Mrs. Grover Clevelaud.-lBir
Age-Herald.
Having won wife, the next thing in or
der was family, but fortune did not smile
so speedily upon Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland in
this regard as they may have desired. A
White House baby would have worked
wonders in Mr.. Cleveland's political career;
for sentiment sometimes sways the Ameri-
can voter in remarkable manner Still
more potent would have been the little
strangers influence had it arrived in 1883,
during Mr.. Cleveand's second campaign for
the presidency. Baby Cleveland would have
ranked with Burchard as an innocent cause
Of Republican defeat
But after i've years a little girl has come
and the tiny visitor will be all the more
welcome because of the waiting If Mr.
Cleveland still has political ambitions his
daughter. and her lovely mother will be 4
host in themselves. If private professional
life, in which he is said to have established
himself so successfully, be more to his lili-
ing, his home will be all the more attract
than Offset the plaudits of the crowd.
Whatever the event, may the daughter
of the Clevelands inherit the graceS and
goodness of her mother and the pluck and
luck of her father.-Minneapolis Tribune.
The news was flashed all over the coun-
try to-day that a little daughter had been
born to ex-President and Mrs Cleveland,
and the States was one of the first papers
TO express its congratulations. AS matter
of course Mr. Cleveland is too good man
and husband not to feel proud of the little
one who has come 10 his home TO share
with him the love of his beautiful wife, but
ing the opinion that ne would have felt at
least six inches taller had the baby been a
boy. We cannot always have what we
want in this life, however, consequently we
doff our hat to little Miss Cleveland and
make the prediction that her lisping tongue
will be heard in the White House in 1858
Here is a bumper to the little Democrat. and
may God bless her noble parents New
Orleans States.
To Mrs. Cleveland: Better late than
never. But the country still insists upon
some young Democrats of the Cleveland
type. If Mr. Cleveland is happy, nobody
else has any right to complain; but, all the
same, about 5000, 900 Democrats wish it
was boy.-[St. Louis Republic.
Mr.. Cleveland is now entitled to congrat-
ulation from people of all parties, but as
usual with him, most of the credit belongs
to Mrs. Cleveland.-TS St. Louis Globe-Dem-
ocrat.
