LOCAL CIGARMAKERs
Taking steps to Protect the Sale of Union
Made Goods.


A short time ago the members OF Gar
field Assembly, X. of L., having we'll
defined suspicion that there was some
thing not altogether straight in the sale
of cigars purporting TO be union made,
but which were open to doubt, appointed
q committee TO look into the matter and
TO devise ways and means to correct the
evil suspected TO exist. The committee
came 10 the conclusion to have printed
hangers bearing the seals of the Gar
field Assembly, Of the Trades Assembly
and Of the international Cigar-MakerS'
Union, and post them up about this city
and vicinity, calling attention to the
seals, and asking smokers to see they
were upon the boxes from which they
bought their cigars When this was
done, the committee thought they would
90 up to PittsburG, and out along
the mining region OF Western
Pennsylvania, putting up sim
liar circulars, with the addition OF
the seal Of the Pittsburg cigar makers.
They were TO have started on this work
last week, but delayed in the arrival OF
the seal OF the International Organiza-
ton prevented, and they will commence
the work this week, and will likely de-
part for Plttsburg about Wednesday
next. The committee consists OF
MesSrs. Roman Dobler, Fred Schnepf
and Fred Keller. The visit to Penn
sylvania is partly for the reason that
there is a large sale Of Wheeling made
cigars and stogies there, and partly to
extend helping hand to the Pittsburg
union cigar makers.
Members Of Garfield Assembly were
hot, last night, over publication in a
city paper, which said 1.-THE outcome of
the venture is doubtful" and generally
threw cold water upon the efforts OF
the men.

New York Life.

In another column Of this impression
IS communication about the New York
Life Insurance Company, signed by a
number Of policy-holderS residing in
this city. The article explains itself.
The signers thereof are some Of our
most prominent citizens, and an express
sion from them carries with it great
weight. Therefore it will be read both
with interest and satisfaction by the
large number of that company'S policy
holders who read the REGISTER. DR..
Curry, the affable and popular agent
Of the New York Life for West Nir-
GINA, tells us that there are over
1000 policy-holders in this city
alone, who represent over half mill
ion OF money in policies, and who pay
anywhere from $50 TO $4,000 per an
mum in premiums, according TO the
amount of their policies. Happily for
all concerned the reorganization of the
company makes it certain that hence
forth it will speed along at its old re-
liable gait.

Stories
Yesterday, in reference to the arrest
Of the two men, Engler and Stebbins,

even refusing an invitation from Chief

This matter was explained yesterday,
when Engler came TO the City Hail and
made a statement that he had been
robbed OF $50 by Stebbins, at Fairmont,
on the 18th inst. Stebbins went TO
Pittsburg yesterday morning and could
not be arrested.

New Trials Awarded.

The case Of James W. Wright, the ffty-year-
old white man convicted November 80 Of an as
sault with intent to commit rape on the per-
son Of his adopted daughter, Della Adams, in
June last, was called in the Criminal Court
Saturday, motion for a new trial having been
filed by his counsel, Mr.. T. G. Taylor. The
court said he was not entirely salts
fed that the verdict was correct,
for the charge was SO at variance with the pre-
vious conduct of the old man towards the girl
The testimony Of the girl was not corroborated
and some Of her remarks did not impress him
favorably and he would award him a new trial
The bail was reduced from $3, 600 to $4,000.
In the case Of Peter Hunter, colored, con-
victed Of larceny from the person, snatching a
pocket book, Mr.. Peyton argued motion for a

which he was not entirely satisfied with the
verdict, but the jury were the judge Of the
the facts. II this man was guilty he ought to
20 to the penitentiary for four or five years,
and il he sent him there he would not feel
entirely satisfied but that he had sentenced an
innocent man.

The G. p. o. and the Eight Hour Law.
WASHINGTON, Dec IL, 1892.


WASHINGTON, Dec. IL, 1892.
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
was much surprised in reading in your issue
Of Saturday that ''employes in the government
printing Office are Directing to the operations
of the eight-hour law" and believe that your
reporter was not correctly informed when he
wrote the article headed "The Eight-hour
Law" A very few individuals in that office
may be in favor of the repeal of the law from
selfish motives, but the vast majority are
heartily in favor Of it, az by its operation many
OF them have been retained in their positions
at better wages than they could obtain in
private employ.
1t is not probable that committee of COM
positors will take the matter in hand shortly
and ask that the government printing Office be
the reason that all printers in that Office are
members OF Columbia Typographical Union,
which is on record in favor OF it, and no COM
mittee could obtain the consent Of the union to
ask for its repeal. The fact is, that should
there be any attempt to repeal the law by this
Congress all the power Of organized labor
throughout the country would be invoked to
prevent 1t. and members Of either party who
voted for its repeal would be held Individually
responsible by the labor organizations in their
districts. The workingmen Of the country
have been asking for the enforcement of the
hoAohoA cA6hShouf law LUZ years anu tQey 90
not now propose to take backward step that
few individuals may earn more money than in
their widest dreams they ever conceived Of
doing. The law has come to stay and the bene-
fits to the workers as a whole from it are al
ready apparent. both to the employees of the
government and In its moral effect in decreas-
ing the hours Of labor for those outside gov
eminent employ.
It IL not q fact, as stated by the heads of
bureaus In the government departments, that
the enforcement Of the eight-hour law will in
crease the expenditures Of the government
nearly 10 per cont" as can be demonstrated in
very short ord,r by many members Of organ
lied labor In this city. Its effect in the gov
eminent printing office is that three men now
hold situations eight hours q day where form
erly two men worked twelve hours per day and
received the idle mans wages.
believe that were the question Of repeating
the law or Of e1empting any branch of the gov
eminent printing Office from its operations
submitted to a vote Of Columbia Union it
would receive an almost unanimous defeat.
We asked for eight hours and we want eight
hours for all hands. WE, SHIELDS.
President G. T. u, No. 101.
