PAY FOR BEING TRAITORS.

Senator Irby Of South Carolina has
introduced bills for the relief of certain
of his constituents calling for the pay
ment from the United States treasury
of over $100, 900.
These claimants are heirs of people
who suffered loss because they entered
into traitorous conspiracy to dismem-
Der the Union.
Will the Democratic party pay these
claims?
This is an exceedingly serious ques-
tion. 1t looks very much as though
those who have constantly endeavored
to recoup themselves for losses incurred
in the war from the national treasury
have faith that the Democratic party
will reduce pensions enough to give
them the money they want.
Such claims as these would never be
made of the national government were
it in the hands of the Republicans.
Whether the Democrats will yield to
the traitorous demands remains to be
seen. It is disgrace that the ex-rebel
claimants assume that they will.

THEY WERE THERE.
The Britishers were there.

The Britishers were there.
Promptly on hand at the first days
hearing of the ways and means COM
mittee were the representatives Of the
farmers Of Bermuda.
They came with the sanction of their
government, with the approval of the
British government and of Her Majesty
Queen Victoria.
II would seem almost as II "Cousin
Ben" Folsom had recently been lectur-
ing in Bermuda.
These Britishers explained how their
farmers had suffered under American
protection, and how they, the foreign
producers, had to pay our import duty.
This seemed to stagger the free trade
members of the committee VINO belong
to the ignoramuses that pretend that the
American consumers pay the duty. But
the Britishers would have none Of this.
They came out i'm their blunt fashion
and said the producers paid it, that it
was no tax upon the consumers. They
said they shipped everything they possi-
bly, could to the United States and
wanted to ship more, and Southern
members of the committee learned that
Bermuda potatoes came into direct
competition with the early grown
Southern potatoes.
What a dead give awayi The
Britishers scented from afar possible
new or better market when the party
Of free-trade should be in power, and
The Britisher was the first to swoop
down upon the poor American corpse,
seeking to tear off its pound of flesh
while any flesh was left, and before NY
other foreigners were able to gobble up
our trade.

The question of rent comes to the
front when the results of the hard sum-
mer are considered.
Few people suffer for food. Many
find it very hard to pay the rent de-
manded for a conf Portable tenement.
Shelter must be had. Without 1t
ones hold upon decency and even
existence is quickly loosened. Life can
be sustained with very little money, if
shelter is secure. If that fails families
are quickly broken up, self respect
vanshes, crime is resorted to and dam
age is done that is irreparable.
Too little attention is paid to the mat
ter Of cheap and comfortable tenements
for people who live every day upon that
days earnings. This class pays more
rent than it can properly afford to.
There ought to'be at the command Of
the authorities of every city large
number of buildings in which deserving
people in temporary distress can be
given apartments which will serve for
homes and keep families together until
work comes.
There ought also TO be some perma-
nent provision for cheaper homes for
families that rent tenements. Just how
this could be accomplished need not be
suggested. There are ways enough,
once the will to dois developed.
"A very large proportion Of the misery
following loss of work would never be
known if the shelter for the family was
not in danger of being taken away, and
was less costly.

Trouble In Mount Vernon.
MoUyr VERNON, N. Y, Sep. IA seri-
ous riot in this city was narrowly ayerted
by the prompt action OF the police. Three
hundred or more Italians employed by the
Corcoran Manor Park Association gathered
ut the branch Office of the Park Association
elamoring for their pay. They became
very 6emonstrative and threatening, and
Mr. Roemer, the local agent, sent word to
police headquarters for assistance. Ser
geant Beckwith. with four patrolmen, was
quickly on the ground and cleared the side
walks.
The Italians gathered in groups and com
planned bitterly because they could not get
their money Through an interpreter it
was learned that they commenced work six
weeks ago and that they had not received
any pay during that time. Finally the
crowd marched in a body to the residence
OF Col. Alfred Cooley, president of the
Park Association, and made another demon
stration. Once more the police were called
upon TO disperse the crowd.
Further trouble OF serious nature is
feared by the authorizes and the resi-
dences of Col. Cooley and Contractor
Money are closely guarded by the police.
Col Cooley claims that all money due
from the Park Association has been paid
and he says the men must look to the con-
tractor for their pay.

The Anarchistic Element In Control Of
Labor Organizations.

New HAVEN, Conn, Sep. Trouble is
brewing in local labor unions The So
cialist and Anarchistic elements have been
growing unusually lively of late. aided by
material encouragement from New York
headquarters, and now whether the tail OF
the dog will do the wagging must be
settled The first time the new aiiarchistic
socialistic combination showed its strength
was in the preparations of the Labor day
parade Monday. 1t put forward candidates
for all the official tickets and ia only few
cases failed TO elect its candidates. The
result was that over hundred members
OF the various unions refused to parade.
They are now active IN organizing an ac-
tive opposition TO the successful comoina-
ton and the question OF supremacy in the
labor unions will soon be settled.
