In its last issue the Nrr Station refers
to the fact that while in England there
is a proposition before Parliament for
organizing the railroad workers upon
public basis and holding them TO a
military responsibility, the recommen-
dations contained in the last report of
the New York State Board Of Arbitra-
ton are to the same effect Our
esteemed contemporary suggests two
amendments, as follows: THAT the
officer, of railway companies be sub
iected to the same rule of disCipline, >
That the railway service be placed under
national not State. control. He then
observes:
THE fact that this idea of an indus
trial army, which couple of years ago
was ridiCuled as a Boston fad, should
now be brought forward in the British
Parliament. advocated by State Board
of Arbitration, and favorably discussed
by the most conservative portion of the
press, is extremely significant of the
manner in which men, in spite of them
selves. are being forced to seek in the
plan of nationalism the protection of
society The upshot of this is that the
proposal of the British Parliament and

Nationalist Club No. 3.

Mr. Edelman delivered lecture last
Sunday entitled, "What shall we do to
be saved?"
Lest his audience might suppose he
was about to launch off into theological
sermonizing, he informed them at the
opening that he had no such intention,
and that his desire was to consider how
we shall save ourselves from the ruin
which a general panic might at any time
precipitate.
He said that any one who could under.
stand the events of the last ten years and
analvze the conditions then and now pre-
vaillng, could not fail to perceive that
we had as a people retrogressed rather
than advanced on the road to happiness;
that in truth, as our late plutOCratic
wind, bag, Senator Ingalls,, was forced to
put it, "instead of the land of the free,
and the home of the brave this was fast
becoming the land of the rich and the
home of the slave"
He referred to the fact that under our
system destruction and ruin are not I'm.
frequently agencies of relief. The burn.
ing of a city like Chicago, by causing
the employment of workers, seems to
them d benefit; one mans disaster is
anothers luck; and so the interests of
men are antagonized and all claims of
brotherhood become mere hypocrisy.
He related how in his profession (archi-
teCture) about ten years ago, they looked
down upon the mason and the carpen-
ter; out when the development of capt.
talsm reached that profession and made
competition intense, then the eyes Of the
architect were opened to his relation
with all other industrial workers; so that
he among others was now one of those
dangerous bIpeds known as labor agita-
tors
The members of the firm with which
MIR. Edelman was connected went to bed
one night with thousands of dollars to
their credit in the bank and woke up the
following morning worth $3.50. That
was in 1878.
When he was boy, he heard people
asking where the nuns ana NdnudlS
could come from to destroy our civiliza-
ton. He could tell them now that we
were rearing them in our midst; tramps
and idlers, forced by society to crime
and outlawry.
\ "Christian civilized society" pro-
vides that those willing but unable to
work shall starve quietly and in a con-
stitutional manner, but it takes extreme
pains to enforce this law with enough
bayonets. Nevertheless. when tie next
crisis comes the question will not be
chow to get rid of the hungry ?" but
chow are you going to feed them q
The farmer can no longer be relied upon
to answer the bugle call and shoot down
the discontinued labOrer.
In conclusion the lecturer said our
chief aim must be to discover truth and
disseminate it.
Does Prohibition tend to benefit the
laboring classes" will be debated next
Sunday afternoon; Prof. Wright in the
affirmative; Moses 0ppenheimer in the
negative.

Our pompous, theatrical and bilious
friend, pure and simple" Gompers, is
sending daily to the press of this city
wonderful Geographic reports of his Ma
poleonic receptions in the West. Ac-
cording to those reports the "simple"
people of those parts, in their admira-
ton of the pure, carry him on their
shoulders, serenade him, and otherwise
feast him on tatfy of the crudest sort.
Viewed through his own telescope,
pigmy Gompers is unquestionably gi-
gantiC Barnum.

SWEET WILLIAMS.

In a report published by the State De-
partment at Washington, a certain Chas.
p. Williams, United States Consul at
ROuen, France, gives his version of the
recent great strike and lockout of the Ca
lais tulle makers. He first states that the
manufacturers had themselves Contem-
plated lockout for the purpose of de-
creasing production and "restoring a
more healthy tone to the trade" He then
relates that the strike began with the
b0ycotting of three lace firms (who prob
ably were the chief conspirators in the
projected lockout; that, owing to the
efficiency of the workmen's organiza-
ton, the boycOtted firms were utterly
unable to obtain labor; that the other
lace manufacturers vainly demonstrated
against this shameful conduct" of the
union men, and that finally they locked
out all their hands. Williams further
asserts that from 100 to $50 francs $50
to 500 pee week were not unusual wages;
that this high rate of compensation had
a disastrous effect upon the morals of
the workmen, who spent their time and
money at low drinking houses or in
pleasure excursions. AT the head Of
the movement he says, was an out
slider. Citizen Delcluze, former clerk
active and intelligent, who served a
term in prison for defamation lof the
bosses), where he arranged his socialistic
programme. He had succeeded in getting
elected member of the municipal cOun-
Gil and was elected a member Of the
general council on September q. His
role was simple. He promised every
thing to everybody, preached in favor
of the strikes, and was kind enough to
declare that, if he was elected he would
render everybody happy and each work
man millionaire, and above all, abolish
all duty on beer and spirits" Were not

would suggest that its author might
with propriety serve term in prison
Tor defamation of the French workmen
in general and of our comrade Delc.uze
in particular; but we shall be content
to turn him over to the fool killer. The
fact, however, that such trash is pub
lished under the official seal of our fed
eral State Department, taken in connec-
ton with the obvious purpose of it,
places Blaine in his true light before the
workingmen of this country.

The newspapers are radiant. A Phila-
delphia beauty and New York mil
lionaire were married last Tuesday. The
lucky son of his father is John Jacob
Astor. Twenty-Five hundred invitations

THE STOLEN INCREMENT

1t is customary among the single
takers to speak of land value As the "un-
earned increment" The inference is
that the improvements on the land have
been learned" by those who possess

In a previous issue we referred to the
vast acCumulations of wealth, actually
belonging to no one, but controlled by
the directors of life insurance companies.
We named, among others, the New
York Mutual whose assets are very
nearly $50 million dollars. The Metro
politan has just issued its annual report,
which shows assets amounting to 1870
million dollars. Its income last year
from premiums paid by policy holders
was nearly $50, 100000, while its dis
bursements for death casualties and
endowments were only $4,000, 900. In
other words the policy holders, as a
body, paid more than double as much as
they received. Of the remainder seven
million dollars went to agents and direc.
tors, and the net surplus, together with
the income Of previously accumulated
assets, went to swell those accumula.
tons. Once more we say, it were high
time those vast sums We're turned into
the public treasury and life insurance
became public service.

From the large number of American
citizens whose toes prOtrude through
their worn out shoes, it would seem that
we do not produce enough for the home
consumption. And yet it is fact that
our exports of shoes have increased from
about 100000 in 1880, to 500, 900 IN
1890.
According to BrddStreef& the total
number of failures in the United States
from Jan. /, to Feb. IA this year was
2,0G1. Pig iron production is % 900 tons
less per week than a month ago, and
., 900 tons less than year ago. The
sales of all kinds of goods are not by any
means as large as last year. Neverthe-
less, the outlook for spring trade is
generally reported favorable.
A statement Of the number and value
of farm animals in the United States for
the year 1890 has just been published by
the Department of Agriculture. There
appears to have been little change in
numbers as compared with the previous
year, except on the Pacific Coast and in
certain portions of the Rocky Mountain
area, where the winters of 1889 and
1890 were unusually severe and the
losses heavy. The number of horses
on farms as reported is l4,056, $50: the
average price of all ages, $61, de-
/ cline of last year of Sl.S4. The
number of mules is 1895. 535, having
an average value of S77SS, a decline
from last year of 81 cents. The number
of mich cows is l6,Ol9, sol, an increase

The Population of Michigan.

A census bulletin just issued which is
devoted to Michigan statistics, says that
the population of the state under the CEN
sus taken as of June 1, 1890, is 2,093, ,8S9,
while in 1880 the population was 1886. .937,
an Increase in ten years of 456, ,952 or 7.92
per cent. In 1880 Montmorency and Oscoda
counties were unorganized and were at
tached as townships to Alpena and Alcona
counties, respectively. Since then, how
ever, they have been organized and appear
separate and distinct as counties The fol-
lowing new counties have been organized
since 1880: Alger in 1885, from Schoolcraft;
Arenac, in 1883, from Bay; Gogebic, in 1887,
from Ontonagon; Iron, in 1885, from Mar
quette and Menominee, and Luce, in 1887,
from Chippewa and Mackinac. When
parts of counties have been taken to form
new counties the population according to
the census of 1880 of the part taken is de-
Quoted from the population in 1880 of the
county from which it was taken, wherever
possible, and is set over against the popu-
lation of the new county for 1890, as in this
way comparison to show growth is more
accurately made. Fifteen counties in the
state show decreases, most of which are
small, while fourteen counties show in
creases of more than 100 per cent. Thirty
eight counties show increases of more than
80 per cent

Have worked for the government.

A good many distinguished women
have at different times been compelled
to seek employment in the government
service. Mrs. Stephen A. Douglas, the
widow of the Little Giant" reduced to
poverty by her husbands unfortunate
speculations, for time held clerkship
in the treasury. During the lifetime Of
her husband she was brilliant leader in
society, and while in the treasury mar
ried an army officer of high standing
The daughter Of decayed Washington
family was married from the treasury to
wealthy German baron. A niece Of
General John Sedgwick once held place
there.
Mrs. Commodore wainwright, de-
scendant of Franklin, and two grand
daughters of Jefferson have been clerks
in the government service. Mrs. Attor-
