Is THIS A BLESSING
Starving Iron Makers App al Fol
Bread,
To Maintain Their Manhood and Their
Honor, and Save Their Children From
Starvation. %, .,---.~ -.

New YORK, Feb. E.-tSpecial. Am
of Pittsburg, said, in a New Orleans inter-
view yesterday that the Mckinley bill had
been blessing not only to the iron man.
ufscturer but to the workingmen.
This blessing was bestowed by Carnegie
upon his substitute Huns in the way of
holiday cut of wages. And the following
call for help from President Gompers of
the American Federation of Labor shows
clearly how othor iron workers are sha--
ing the same blessings:
BREAD, BREAD, BREAD!
New YORK, Feb. 13, 1892.
To the Officers and Members of the Trade
Unions of America: Greeting.
DEAR SIRs AND BRoTHERs.-On the 1st
of January the iron molders belonging
to union 109, of Geneva, N. Y, went on
strike against a reduction of wages. The
employers secured unfair molders to
take the places of some of the strikers.
The core makers belonging to Core
Makers Union 5,022, of Geneva, of their
own volition, and to support the striking
iron molders, refused to make cores for
the scab molders. These core makers are
doing picket duty day and night, and have
now been out on strike for nearly seven
weeks upon a question of principle and
to aid the iron moulders.
Having been organized but few months
they are not entitled to benefit from any
source. They and their families are in
sore need of the necessaries of life, and I
urge you to come to their support literally
and at once, so that they may be enabled
to maintain their manhood, their honor
and their principles of unionism, and Sc
cure victory for the union iron molders.
Please send your contributions to Mr..
John Tracey, 1853 North street, Geneva, N.
Y, and notify
Yours fraternally,
SAMUEL GoMPERs,
Pres. American Federation of Labor.

LET February II, 1892, be recorded as
q perfect day in Canton, fair, crisp and
full of healthful ozone, with officers
elected "by the people, and for the peo.
pie" in the full discharge of their du-
ties, and constituency that placed them
there, conscious of a power to make
and unmake their officers at will. And
yet, down there in Columbus, in that
sitting hot-bed Of political intrigue
called Legislature, a conspiracy
against popular rights in Canton is go
ing on, in as aagrant manner as if
the satraps of the Russian Gar were
at work. People of Canton, do you
want to govern yourselves, or do you
want to be smuggled into serfdom un-
der the protectorate Of partisan Leg
fslature?

THE HEALrHFUL MINORITY.
d mocrats Exchanging Courtesies
With Governor Mckinley.
Some Anti-Ripper Talk That Excited
Great Applause, and viii Excite More
If Carried Into Effect.

COLUMBUS, o., Feb. 17.-[Special.l-.
The House sdjourned yesterday afternoon
to enable the Democratic members to call
upon Governor Mckinley, at the Execu-
tive Chamber, and formally pay their re-
spects. After the formal presentation and
reception was over there was a general
hand shaking and exchange OF greetings.
Governor Mckinley spoke as follows:
Gentlemen: am truly very much hon
ored by your call this afternoon; and it
has given me special pleasure to greet
each of you personally. We have to have
Democrats and Republicans and am
sure want to be on the very best terms
personally and officially with all of the
gentlemen who are part and parcel of
the Legislature Of Ohio and the civil adj
ministration o. We Stat". have always
liked the Democratic p .sy. but have al
ways liked II best when it was in the
minority. Uaughter.) And in that par
ticular, so far as the legislature is con-
cerned, l am gratifled of course, this
year. Uaughter.) Think It very whole
some and healthful in politics to have
very strong minority. think the closer
you get political parties in popular vote
the better legislation and administration
we are sure to have; and 1 want TO say
to you, gentlemen, although in the minor.
ity, that shall always be glad to see you
and confer with you in the interest Of
good government and it is my purpose in
the appointment of the trustees of the
great institutions Of the state TO see to IL
that your party which represents a large
portion of the citizenship of Ohio, shall
have full and fair representation on all
these boards. We are all interested in
their successful and economical adminis-
tration. (Applause.)

Col. Bob INGERsoLL in his Akron
lecture, last night, defined liberty as
something mot to be interfered with
by those of like intelligence" and illus
traded it in this way:
If you were prevented from crossing
a swollen stream by flood, you would
not feel enslaved; If you were in the
top of tree and wild beasts were at
the foot you would not, but if a couple
of fellows were on the other side of
that stream, and said you should not
cross you would feel enslaved and that
your Fights were tramplsd upon.
Exactly so, Bob and:Canton does not
propose to let couple of fellows down
ia Columbus trample upon her rights.

Mrs. Humphrey Ward, The Author OF
Robert Elsmere, Continuing Rer Liter.
ary Work.
The ninteenth century is pre-eminently
an age of fiction and of the writing of
novels there appears to be no end. In
the army of writer's of this vast field of
literature, a few choice spirits rise above
the crowd and give dignity and distinction
to the art of storytelling. Among the
ladies who have achieved fame and pop
ularity in the domain of fiction and
probably one of the greatest Of living
authors is Mrs. Humphrey Ward, whose
novel, Robert Elsmere, produced as great
sensation as was caused by the appear
ance of George Eliot's Adam Bede. En-
couraged by this success, Mrs. Ward has
followed her former volume with n new
work which promises to rival the pre-
ceding book in popularity. The public
will watch with keen interest the pro.
gressive development of this latest Of
female novelists.

Nearly all the more decent Republi-
can organs of Ohio are opposed to the
Gerrymander now in the Ohio House,
the same having passed the Senate.
The Cincinnati Times Star, which is
one Of the most robust Republican
dailies of Ohio says of the atrocity:
ut is the duty of the House to frame a
redistricting bill upon a new basis, or il
possible, to re- shape the Senate measure,
so as to approximate n uniformity in the
size Of the Congressional celebrates and
judlcious territorial division of the
State. A bill making twelve districts safe
ly Republican would be about right"

A Mlssissippi insane Asylum Fire.

JACKSON, Feb. 1.-THE state lunatic
asylum, nearly two miles north of here.
was badly damaged by fire yesterday.
The fire originated in an attic room,
where lunatic named Brown was con-
fined. He escaped recently and was
brought back, and it is supposed he set
death. About 1T one,third ei I Of Ss The s Immense So
building, besides the kitchen and store
mates We're We're ali IIyea removed NY e to tbe new add
superintendent, was injured by falling
ladder. The loss is about 5000, 900. The
legislature, which is now in session. will
provide for rebuilding.

Now that the Ohio Republicans are
in the Commission business why would
it not be well to ask Congress to ap-
point Federal Commission to govern
the State of Ohio? Canton has as good
a right to elect her own officers without
State interference as the State Of Ohio
has to elect officers without Federal in
reference. Local self government is
the demand of the hour.

Canadian Liberals are about to mourn
the loss OF the only premier their party
has ever given to the Dominion since its
formation in 1867. Alexander Mackenzie
is lying Ill and is at the point of death at
his home in Toronto, Ont. He was leader
OF the Liberal minority in the Dominion
House of Commons in the early seventies,
and when the Pacific railway scandals, in
November, 1873, forced Sir John Macdon-
aid to resign, the Liberal leader was called
upon to form new ministry. Parliament
was dissolved, and in the elections Of 1874
the new government was sustained by a
large majority. The Conservatives then
began their famous campaign for a "na'
tional policy" and higher duties upon i'm
ports. When the Liberal Parliament
reached its statutory limit and an appeal
was made to the country in August, 1873,
the result was return OF Tory majority
OF hundred in a House of 206 members.
Since his retirement from office the ex-
Premier has resided in Toronto, Ont.

EX GOVERNOR BROWN of Georgia,
has written long letter to the Atlanta
Constitutional, in which he says the
Democratic party should nominate a
man who can carry New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut and Indiana.
Governor Brown claims that the abil-
tiles of Cleveland and Hill being equal,
the question of precedent should clear
the question, as no man in the party
ever yet received three nominations.

incapable of protecting themselves they
applied to some higher power for a
