MORE ANARCHY.

Just as the pin-hesded country
editors got their story fixed up in
good shape about how the national
assembly Of the Federation of Labor
sat down upon Governor Altgeld and
refused to listen to a speech from
him, that incorriglble body knocked
the wind all out of it by the unsni-
mons adoption of a resolution lndors-
ing the pardon of the anarchists and
declaring that their conviction was the
result of class prejudice and perse-
cution.
The fact is the assembly had taken
no such action as these demsgogues
have reported. That body came to-
gether for business and not to listen
to speeches, and when it was de.
cided that no time should be taken
from it's deliberations for speech max

THERE is occasionally a man who
thinks he must edit every paper that he
subscribes for; and if one of his COM
munlcstions happens to be rejected
he forthwith orders his paper stopped.
The ADVOCATE has recently received
an order to drop from its list one of
this kind. We comply with pleasure.
While we have always endeavored to
be courteous to correspondents and
to extend to- them every privilege
consistent with the interests of the
paper, still it must not be forgotten
that the paper ls edited In the Office,
and we shall never relinquish the
right to reject matter which would oc.
cupy space that we believe could be
more proftsbly filed Many times
also we have more matter than we
can use, and some of 1t is left out for
this reason, and as it gets out of date
before another issue it never appears.
There are various reasons for the
nonappear0nce of communications
which of course correspondents can
not know without a letter Of explsns-
ton in each case, and if any see fit to
take offense on this account we can
only say We regret that they are so
sensitive and so hasty in their judg-
ment and action.

THE FORTY THOUSAND MAN POWER
OF UNUSED CAPITAL.

The Boston Traveller, of December
8, speaking of Boston's unemployed,
says:
To-day the city of Boston, the bossted
Athens of the New World, is staggering
nnder the problem Of what shall be done to
prevent utter dsstitution and starvation of
10000 lsbOrers and their families. Fifty
years from now we predict that the Athens
Of that day will look back with pity and yet
with smile at the houndering Of the city
Of '93. Is it possible, IL will be said, that
the Athens Of the nineteenth century was
actually embarrassed and bewailing over
it's possession Of 10000 man power Of un-
used ospital9 As well might the bonanza
king mourn over the overflow of his strong
box. The capital was at hand. Il was cry
ing for employment, and yet it seemed that
nobody knew what to do with ID except By
begging for the extension Of charity.

THE UNION PACIFIC RECETVERsH1P

In a dispatch from Omaha dated
December II relative to the proposed
reorganization Of the Union Pacific
Mr.. Joseph H. Millsrd, one of the
directors, is quoted as follows:
IL will be impossible for the road TO
shoulder weight Of nearly $500. zoo, 900 Of
debt without some help from the holders of
the mortgage bonds and collateral trust
notes. The government should wipe out
the mortgage debt entirely, wash of the
slate as it were, and allow the bondholdera
to arrange for its proper care.
Inssmuch as the government has
never done anything for the Union
Pacific it will probably do what Mr..
Millsrd suggests. It would un-
doubtedly be source Of great COM
fort to the company also if the gov
ernmsnt would present the new
company few millions in addition
just to encourage it aud set it On it's
feet.

LAWS against anarchists would be about

abundance of everything necessary

barriers that are impossible to them,
