1t is almost a day after the
fair to call your attention to
Christmas goods, but like the
ladder Of fame there is always
room at the top, so there is
yet time to remind the people
that we have a stock of the
handsomest lamps ever i'm
ported to this country. A few
years ago the style ran to
wrought iron; this was follow
ed by polished brass and nickel
stands. This year the fashion
changes again to wrought iron
and the designs we show you
are the very latest conceits of
New York Manufacturers. The
same idea is carried out in the
banquet lamps which, with the
handsome silk shades that go
with them, are truly artistic.
We ask your inspection of
these goods feeling conf
dent you will approve of our
selection.
Agreeably with fall in the
price of sugar we have import
ed a number of small, low
priced silver pieces admirably
adapted to the wants of people
who wish to make handsome,
at the same time Inexpensive
presents. These goods COM
prise, Knife Rests, Salts and
Peppers, small Breakfast Cas-
tors, sets of Individual Buffers

ers. These articles make a
beautiful showing and are very
cheap. For holiday gifts moth
ing will be appreciated more
by the recipient.
Another word about lamps
Last year, about Christmas
time, we received three very
pretty little lamps which may
have been intended for night
lamps or for sewing by, they
were good enough for any
purpose for which lamps arc
used and handsome enough
to be used as ornaments. W.
kept them twenty minutes
This year we imported a half
dozen more and unless thu
taste of the public has changed
they won't remain with us yer,
long. The designs are rathe
handsomer than those of las
year and the price a shad

Foreign Contract Labor.

Prominent labor men in New York are
just now showing considerable interest
in the subject of foreign contract labor.
President Gompers Of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor has addressed letter TO
the senate committee on immigration, of
which Senator Hill is chairman. In this
letter attention is called to indisputable
evidence showing that the law forbidding
the importation of labor as under con-
tract is regularly and extensively vio-
lated. The chief complaint is against
the Italian 'bankers' of New York.
Mr.. Gompers claims that these ''bank-
ers," to whom the immigrants are sup
posed to bring letters of credit and in
PRODUCTION, are either themselves labor
agents or cooperate with labor agents
for the purpose of evading the law.
According to the complaints made by
representatives of labor organizations,
contract labor immigration is almost as
common today as it was before the pas
sage Of the restriction law, and specific
cases are cited and will be laid before
the senate committee at it's next meeting.
Mr.. Gompers recommends the appoint
ing OF special agents whose duty it shall
be to take passage at foreign ports upon
vessels carrying immigrants, and to, by
mingling with the immigrants, ascertain
If any of them are under contract to
work in the country. It is also sug-
gested by some of the laber men that
immigration from Italy be suspended for
period Of two years, as that country is
furnishing greater part of the objec-
tionable immigrants.

Value Given by Law.

Monometallist newspapers will not find
among the skilled economists and statis-
ticians of their own faith a scrap Of
writing in denial of the fact that the
values Of gold and silver are created and
determined by their use as standard cur
rency under the laws of nations. One Of
the greatest Of these English monometal-
list economists relates that he was puz-
zled to account for sudden increase in
the value Of gold during the thirteenth
century until he discovered that ct that
time Italy had enacted laws for using
gold money. IF the Republican press Of
this country would be as honest - he
was, they would admit this rule Of gold
and silver values.-St. Louis Republic.

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.

IdE OUTLOOh.
Resolved, That we desire to say to
the members of the peoples party of
this state, that the prospects for the,
success of the principles our party
were never so bright as they are to-
day. The terrible collapse of the
business and commerce of the whole
country, and the great suffering
which is following and must follow
to the mass of the people, who labor
for living, are opening the eyes of
the voters to the fact that the finan-
cial principles of the old parties are
destructive of the country, and they
are coming over to the peoples party
by the hundreds of thousands. We
have only to stand firm by our prin-
ciples to speedily achieve state and
national triumphS.
Resolved, That in the presidential
campaign of last year we told the
people that the great issue was the
financial one; and that the outcry of
both the old parties, about the tariff,
was simply a sham fight, agreed upon
by them, for temporary purposes, to
divert public attention from the real
questions at issue. The result has
proved the truth of our statements:
the tariff issue is now dead and
buried; the money issue is the sole
and only one before the people to-
day. We call the attention of the
voters to this to show how cunningly
they were humbugged, by the money
power, acting through the leaders of
two great agencies, the republican
and democratic parties.
THE FREE SILVER CONVENTION.
Resolved, That we urge that full
delegation go from Minnesota to the
Chicago convention. to be held
August 1st, 1893; to protect against
the repeal of the Sherman act and to
demand the full reconciliation of
silver. We believe that the said con-
ventiOn will be the most important
held in this country, in the last quar-
ter Of a century.
RESOLUTIONS OF COINCIDENCE.
Resolved, That we have heard
with profound regret of the great
and irreparable loss sustained by our
friend and fellow member of this
committee, Hon. III. p. Bjorge, in the
loss of his eldest son; and we assure
him that he and his family have the
sympathy of all who know them in
their great affection.
Resolved, That this resolution be
spread upon the minutes of the state
farmers alliance, and the secretary is
directed to forward copy Of the
same to Mr.. BjorRe.

RESOLUTIONS
Adopted by the Executive Com
mittees of the Peoples Party
and the State Alliance.

Following is the full text of the
resolutions adopted by the execu-
tive committees of.the peoples party
and the state farmers alliance at the
joint session held at St. Paul July
9Th, 1893:
ENDORSING MR.. DONNELLY.
Resolved, That we have entire
confidence in Hon. Ignatius Donnel-
ly. We believe that he has been and
is the best friend the farmers and la
borers have had in Minnesota, for
the last thirty years; and that dur
ing all that time he has been the
target of plutocracy, and their hire
lings. s.
"FUsIoN."
Resolved, That we resent the i'm
putatiOn that the, peoples party of
the state of Minnesota in the last
campaign, ''fuSed'' with the demo
cratic party, as an absolute, unjusti-
fable falSehOOd.
ENDORSING THE REPRESENTATIVE.
"ResOlved, That we desire to ex-

ask every friend of reform in the
state to constitute himself a commit

tain it and increase it's circulation.

ments of reform, in this state, in

league in the state, to go to work al
once and help build it up and make
it great power" ~
This was followed by the following
also unanimously adopted:

consider tho advisability Of trying to do
something sensible and substantial for
themselves and for those who will come
after them. ] am not going off after
new gods. For years have been advo-
eating what this letter appeals for.
am with Mr.. Powderly's views now be-
cause he has come out upon lines which
l supported in Denver nine years ago
and in Chicago five years ago. My
greatest regret is that he was not as fear
less in expressing at Richmond seven
years ago the views he now gives out.
But while time has been lost by the
Knights of Labor the experience of the
past seven years has been valuable-if
the order will only follow the counsel
of its master workman now.
If President Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor is correctly report
ed, he opposes the idea of thorough
amalgamation of labor upon the new
lines proposed. am sorry to note this.
Mr.. Gompers has been and is still Of
great service to the union labor move
ment, but he weakens his usefulness when
he opposes offhand proposition which
looks to more compact combination of
the country's producers. know that he
has an unwavering faith in the efficiency
OF the American Federation of Labor,
and he deserves great credit for the part
he has taken in bringing that organiza-
ton up to the position it holds. It does
not follow, however, that Mr.. Gompers
must stand still. It is not to his credit
that he is reported as being satisfied with
what labor is accomplishing for itself.
There are more hills to climb, and Sam
Gompers should be in the front rank.
1t is not enough to say that Gompers
must oppose the idea because Powderly
supports it. There are thousands of men
in labors ranks just as able as either
Gompers or Powderly, and there are
hundreds who have just as fully earned
the right to think and speak for labor.
The time has come to bury hatchets or to
bury the men who will persist in WELD
ing them in the face Of labor's host eager
to march on.
Now is the time to take up the cry of
complete un1hcat1On OF labor. This is
the ''of year" in politics, and the move
ment will not fall prey to politicians
and self seekers. It cannot be shelved by
campaign howlers. Not onlyis the time
Opportune-the situation is imminent.
There are dark days ahead of us, and the
diggers and builders must get ready to
meet them. Many labor organizations,
national and local, have this year adopt
ed resolutions embracing progressive
principles. Now let them take astep to-
ward the practical enforcement of those
principles. Many national conventions
Of labor organizations will be held be-
tween now and Christmas. Each and
every one should show its hand clearly
on the subject of complete amalgama-
ton and progressive political action.
Will they do it? Jos. r. BUCHANAN.

Worth Considering.


There are some flaws in the following
from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, but
the main idea is worthy of the working
mans consideration:
Population in this country has overtaken the
means of subsistence open to humanity, and
there is large surplus Of labor which Is per-
manently out Of employment. The would be
workers naturally avail themselves Of every OPP
portunity which chance throws in their way to
save themselves from starvation or pinching
want, one of these opportunities being q strike
Of dissatisfied wage earners who think they
are strong enough to dict. terms to their en-
ployers.
large reserve Of idle men ready 10 work upon
which he can draw in time of need. This hu-
man surplus is now the sure dependence Of the
employer class. It Is always ready, always
needy and always cheap. It is ever willing to
work for less than the other man and for q
time ct least Is docile and manageable. Neces-
sity Is great promoter Of humility.
It IL this fact which workinRmen persistently
ignore. They rush into strikes which are plain
Invitations to certain defeat. They cannot hope
for any other result until they effect . change
In the existing economic conditions. They
should direct their studies not to the cure but
to the prevention Of labor troubles.
