ARMY OF UNEMPLOYED.
What New York May Expect In the Near
Future.

NEW York, Aug 4.-The World to-day
has long article indicating that the
metropolis will soon be overrun by an army
of idle men. Statistics from 81 trades in
New York city are given to show that in
these trades alone over 36, 900 men are out
of work, and it is declared that this repre-
sents only a portion of the city's unem-
ployed. 1t is stated that thousands are
coming here from the West in search Of
employment and that immigrants are tar
rying in New York because of business
stagnation in Western States. 1t is also
pointed out that the host of idlers is being
daily increased by the shutting down OF
factories, and the claim is made that the
manufacturers who do not clos, their mill
doors are importing pauper labor. West
ern cities, tbs claimed, feed and forward
tramps to New York free Of cost, and it is
limited that the statistics may point out
bread riots In the near future. The state
is made that Horace Greeley's maxim, go
West, young man." has been reversed by
the silver kings OF the Sierras.

our telephone exchange should burn out.
A new species OF nah and woman has
been evolved since the introduction OF
this labor-saving device. In the od
old days wlel there were no
telephones i'm the land, nobody thought
anything OF walking half or thre quarters
of mile TO communicate Information
whether of an essential character
or otherwise. No 9th way was known,
AID H. was done rs a matter Of course.
Redistribution was an art and was prac-
tised assiduously. Nov, everything is
changed. NJ n has forgotten how to

The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1893-11-04
Keen Your RECORDS CLEAN.

The Democratic party owes no man any
thing. 1t supposes men are actuated by
principles, not by the hope of reward. In
looking for instruments to apply Demo-
cratic principles to government, men with
straight party records are sought, because
it is only by devotion to party that devo-
ton to principles is proven. The man who
absents himself from the polls on election
day because one or more candidates duly
nominated are not the ones he desired, or
goes to the polls and strikes from his ticket
candidate, is actuated by personal feel
ings. Such man is uncertain. He is
not well-grounded in his convictions, and
candidates 70 him are mere individuals, not
representatives Of principles in government.
He is not the sort of man for public Office,
because he has no well settled convictions
and can not be trusted. Men who have
for one reason or another cut their tickets,
and later sought Office, have had the fact
brought up against them and failed in their
ambition. They are then sorry that they
have ruined their records as party men.
No man can tell when he may want public
position, and the only safe way is for every
Democrat to keep his record clean. Bow to
the will of the majority and look upon your
candidates as representatives of principles.
Recognize the fact that parties are only
means to an end, and that public officers
are instruments by which those ends are
attained. Vote your tickets straight, and
keep your records straight, in order that
they may not come up to plague you when
they may apply for public position.
