Mach,nrsts ana Apprentices.

Special Correspondence.
LARAMIE, Wyo., Nov. 2l.-The con-
vention of m%acbinists of the order Of
International Association of Machinists
has adjourned. The principal poirt is
touched upon today we're in regard to ap-
prentices and working over time. The
machinists pledge themselves to assist ap-
prentices and discourage the interference
with apprentices work by laborers. They
will not recognize runaway apprentices.
The lodge will discourage working over
time as it is believed to be in the interest
of labor and no disadvantage to the com.
pauv, to have all work performed by
more men on regular time, instead OF
working q few over time. thus giving
employment to a less number of men.
District Master Maohinist Eaton has
been ordered to visit every lodge on the
system during the coming year.

1t Means Free Trade.

The logic OF events contested with
the election Of Speaker of the House
very clearly demonstrates that Ex-
President Cleveland has reee ived a
very severe kick from 1ammany the
political busines end OF the Democratic
party and IL he attempts TO mount the
broncho for a ride into the Presidential
chair, 1t need surprise robody If he is
tumbled over into Democratic mud.
There seems to be no use from
the present look out, 20 dispute the
fact that Hill. German aid Ia,nmany
are on the top, having proven them
selves the smarLnst and most sucress-
fni manipulators in tine Democratic
camp and they may be expected TO
work the anti Cleveland machine for
all that it Is worth aud they know ex-
actiy how to do 1t. Speaker Crisp is
in a position to render them valuable
help without seeming to do 50.

this they can get through free-trade.

HARRISBURG, Dec 11.-Yesterday the
executive committee of the Worlds fair
board met for the transaction of import.
ant business. Over an hour was taken
up by the various clergymen of the state
who were present to present protests
against opening the Worlds fair on Sun
day and to urge the board to take imme
diate action. The petitions represented
500, 900 residents of the state, and there
were no people present to urge the open
ing of the gates on the Sabbath.
The board on its final vote recorded it
self as favoring the closing of the gates
ON the Sabbath, and letter from Secre
tary Robert E. Wright was received
saying that he would be detained by ar
important suit, but wished to be placed
on record as being emphatically and un
alterably opposed to Sunday opening
and that he would urge the board t(
take immediate action on the question
THE report of Executive Commissioner
Whitman, with its important sugges
tions, was unanimously adopted, appro-
priating definite sums for each com
mittee to work with, and arranging fol
bi-monthly instead of monthly meetings
hereafter
The woman's committee was granted
the use of room in the Pennsylvania
state building TO be erected at the Chi
cago exposition. This committee vii
be allowed to decorate this room and tt
fit it up for committee use during tht
continuance of the exposition.
The treasurer's report was read ant
important reports of the standing com
mittees were made. The executive com
mittee report was adopted.
In Executive Commi ssioner Whitman
report the various items have been mos
carefully considered. II is absolutely
impossible for the committees to dC
much throughout the state i'll their re
spective departments without finan
cial appropriation. The amounts sug
gested for the different committees vary
inasmuch as certain classes of exhibitor,
will pay all of their own expenses, while
others must receive monetary aid.
The report of the committee recon
mending Mr.. Lonsdale's design for tn
Pennsylvania state building was adopted
and Mr.. Whitman was authorized t,
send at once and ascertain if it would b
accepted as submitted by the Chicagt
authorities.
