: When ! Gun half a-dreaming
And only half asleep,
& When daylisht's grayest cleaning
sGins through tina blinds to peep,
+ oh. then hear tho dinging
q the stnilhy hammers ringing,
Ching ching, ching ching,

AT eve when I'm returning
From labors of the day.
Their forges yet are burning,
And still their hammers play.
And oft the smiths Gro singing
Tothat measured, merry ringing,
Ching ching, ching ching,

Often with rhythmic bending
Of bodies to aud fro,
They toll in couples, sending
- The sparks out, blow on blow.
One hammer always swinging
Tho while tho others ringing,
Ching ching, ching ching,

Oh merry anvils sounding
All day till set of sun!
It is by. steady pounding
That noblest tasks are done.
By sturdy blows and swinging,
That keep the world a-ringing,

terms, in an editorial, Grand Master
Workman Powderly, through the
Journal Of the Knights of Labor, in
dorses the action of the convention, and
is delighted with the platform. In fact
there Is not Jar, not discord within
our ranks from one end of the country
to the other. Unity of purpose now
charactizes the movement from the
lakes to the gulf. and from the .Poto-
mac to the Golden Gate Now, breth-
rem, let there be no more halting. The
fight is on-the battle of the people
against the plutocracy. There are now
but two parties, the money power, In
whose benai are arrayed all the mo-
nopolies, beneficiaries of class laws,
corporations and plutocrats In the land;
and on the other the plain, resolute,
long-suffering people. Thank heaven,
sectional hatred is thing of the past.
The era of fraternity and brotherhood
has at last been ushered In, and it has
been ushered in to stay. There is no
longer any room for laggards or for the
faint-hearted. The watchword is now:
Up and at them all along the line!
We are living in an era of anxious
thought and solicitude. Not a day
passes but men with serious, honest,
sunburnt faces ask us this question:
''What are the farmers of the south GO
ing to do-are they with us? Will they
join hands with the west In the great
work of rescuing this country?" These
and kindred inquiries are constantly
heard among our toilers, and they are
uppermost at every meeting among in
AL IT,
earnest friends we say, dismiss your
fears The industrial forces of the
south, the members of the Farmers Al
lance and Industrial Union are with you
to a man. Their hearts beat in unison
with yours, and they are as true to the
grand cause in which you are engaged
as the needle to the pole. The grand
| confederation of labor now includes
the toilers of every section and of every
state and territory, and they are unit

mands as accommodated at Cincinnati
Both sections will stand like pillars of
granite against all who assail them,
and against all who seek to engender
sectional distrust, and against all who
seek to thrust upon this country des-
potic force bills and kindred infamies.
The hope of the plutocracy lies in
keeping the sections apart-in dividing
the great army of industrial emancipa.
tion. But they will be mistaken Mis-
sissippi and Georgia will vie with
Kansas and Nebraska, North Carolina
and Texas with Iowa and Minnesota,
in lifting the whole country upon a

the petty bloody shirt fingers have
never dreamed>of and which they will
not even be able to enjoy unless speed.

PROHIBITION.

The Attention of Republican Editors In.
vited to a Few Items in the History OF
Their Party.
Republican editors just now have
much to say respecting the refusal of
the Cincinnati convention to incorpo.
rate prohibition plank in it's platform.
This is theme upon which these great
moral reformers especially delight to
| dwell They delight in designating the
peoples party as the new whisky
party" and they would fain have the
people believe that they are sincere in
their professions.
We desire TO ask these patriots (?) If
they have any recollection of petition
presented to the republican convention
Of 1884 by Francis Willard, represent
ing 500, 600 petitioners, for a plank in
their platform indorsing the principle
of prohibition of the liquor traffic? Do
they remember what was done with
that petition? If not we will refresh
their memories. It was thrown upon
the platform and made tar
get for the tobacco juice eject
ed by the statesmen there as
sembled. That petition, rescued from
the slime and filth in which it had
found a grave In that assembly of
moral reformers, has been preserved
and framed; it may now be seen
In the Illinois state historical rooms
in the city of Chicago, where it re-
mains as a monument of the devo-
ton of the republicanparty to the
principle of prohibition What did
that convention have to say upon this
subject? VIII our republican cotempo-
raries tell us?
In 1889 the national republican con-
vention adopted the following resolu-
ton:
The first concern of all good governments
is the virtue and sobriety of the people, and
the purity OF their homes The republican
party cordially sympathizes with all we'll
directed efforts for the promotion of tenn.
perance and morality.
While treating this subject we desire
to remind them of still another fact.
The peoples party is designed especial
ly to secure industrial reform, and to
decide the question whether the people
or the dollar shall rule this country;
and until that question is decided, the
party will refuse to be side-traoked
upon issues presented for It's considera-
ton by its enemies A good deal of
unnecessary discussion and wind may
be saved by recollection of this fact.

For constitutionsI OhJectors.

Senator Fenton, of New York, intro
duced bill December 23, 1861, ''donat-
ing public lands and loaning the credit
of the government to the Peoples Pa
cific railroad, to aid in the construction
of railroad from the Missouri river to
San Francisco" The above is recon-
mended to those who have constitu-
tioual objections to loaning money di-
rect to the people. In another form,
after several manipulations, it passed,
and the government has lost and will
lose the round sum of 5000, 600, O00 The
next congress win no doubt loan its
credit to the Nicaragua canal scheme
and lose another like amount; but, as
Senator George says, this is constitu-
tional, it is for the public good, with a
half dozen or more benefciaries repre-
senting the public. bit to loan that to

of irregular soldiers That Is what the
third party men are, in political
sense.
''The News Is democratic paper and
can be depended upon to stand by it's
principles at all times and under all cir
cumstances. They are the basis of
good government, and to the demo-
cratic party we are indebted for the
blessings free government vouch-
safed to all citizens Among these are
the freedom of speech and the liberty
of the press, the two great mediums
through which the masses are enlight-
ened, the two champions of the peo-
pies rights. For exercising this liberty
and in speaking out against this third
party movement, the News has been
boycotted."
Here we have a plain and explicit
declaration that the National Econ
omist is a third party organ. But what
is more, very much more, Important
we have an implied acknowledgement
that the persistent and intelligent edu-
cation of the people in the principles
advocated by the alliance must inevita-
bly, muster the alliance forces in the
third party ranks. The reasons for this
are two-fold:
First-Neither of the two old parties,
as whole, can adopt and indorse the
principles of the alliance. The rank
and file cannot, because the bosses and
leaders will not

while steadily avoiding partizanship,
tends to destroy it, by teaching devo-
ton to principles rather than fealty to
party.
Let the old line reform papers in the
north (there are none In the south) do
their fighting against the common
enemy, the plutocratic press, and let
not only patience but education have
their perfect work." and in due time
we shall see sectional hate allayed. the
race question eliminated and the north
and the south standing shoulder to
shoulder fighting for a common cause
and a common misrepresentation.
Some think the Economist too slow.
others think it too fast, the north and
west calls it conservative, while the
south calls it radical, therefore con-
clude that the Economist is in the
middle of the road. George c. Ward,

do with the new party is on the lips of
tens of thousands of anxious people to-
day. Well, it ought not to take much
wisdom to answer that question The
new party has adopSed the alliance de-
mands into its platform. Does any one
suppose that intelligent alliancemen
Will vote against party that adopts
those demands and in favor of a
party that not only fails to adopt,
but resists those demands? The
western alliance states have already
gone into the new party. viii not the
necessity for alliance unity force the
other alliance states to go into the new
party also? We see no way to prevent
the new party from sweeping the coun-
try, except the simple one of cheerfully
conceding to the people every one of
their just demands If the alliance
men are to be blamed for going into
the new party, then a hungry child can
be blamed for going to some one who
can and will furnish him food Gentle
men of the old parties, if the time
comes when your ranks shall be
broken, your leaders overthrown and
your heritage taken from you, do not
blame the alliance for your ruin. The
people, represented by the Farmers AL
haDce, have petitioned, and begged, and
pleaded, and prayed for relief all these
year, and the naughty minions of
political power have spurned both them
and their petitions and prayers. Do
not blame them for your overthrow,
but blame your own blind and miser-
able folly
The action lately taken by the con-
ference at Cincinnati has made the fu-
ture of our politics so uncertain as to
throw the old party leaders into con-
sternation. They do not know "and
no fellow can tell them" into whose
hands they are going to fall 1t seems
to us that no good can come to these
leaders and the parties they represent,
so long as these people stand shivering
in their places expecting disaster. If
these people really want to save them
selves from defeat, let them get to-
gether and throw their corrupt lead
ers overheard and address themselves
manfully to the work of reform
ing the financial system. 1t will not do
to point the people to the readings of
former platforms as the guarantees Of
their future action on behalf of the
people. The farmers and laboring men
of this country do not care one silver
for what these parties promised to do
in the past They want to know what
they are going to do in the immediate
future. Nothing but clear cut declara-
tions of fidelity to the good of the en-
tire people can save the old parties
from entire and ignominious over
throw.-Raleigh IN. g. Progressive
