ports regarding harvest prospects In Ger

to believe that Germany. desiring Russian

position BY Russia Of the highest tariff on
imported German products. The condi-
ton Of German crops, however, especially
wheat and rye, has &, eatly improved.
A remarkable change has occurred within
the past few days in the tone of the Cor

had decided upon the line of condact she

to-day when it was known that France had

U11cA. N. T.. Jnly Ex-senator Hill 6e-
livered an address to-day before the Hop
Brewers association on Personal Liberty"
He said that In the realm Of labor and the
domain Of industry, the principal involved
in personal liberty cannot be too frequently
asserted. The fact cannot be too strongly
emphasized that every mans labor is his
own, and he can do with II ~ he plsasss.
He has the personal right to name his own
wages. his own hours and all other terms
under which he Ia willing to be employed.
and If they are satisfactory TO the ono who
hires, the agreement is reached and there Ia
an end OF the controversy between them.
Tho contract is a personal matter with
which no other workmen employ has a
right to interfere.
Those considerations do not conflict with
the obligations which wol kmen assume
when they voluntarily join labor oraaniza.
tionH. They always must be deemed TO re-
serve the abstract right of repudiatinQ
such me IN bsrship whenever they so prefer.
'In my opinion the citadel of personal
liberty in this country IL more in danger OF
being undermined by the il-considered
opinions Of some Of its judges. the strain
ing of doubtful points. and involving quib-
bles in favor Of corporate power and Great
ing factions TO cripple tho efforts OF honest
labor struggling against great odds to
assert its dignity, than from all arbitrary
demonstrations ever made by working
men,"
Speaking Of the tendencies Of the times,
Hill said: Mercantile exchanges in our
n eat cities are clamo.ing for relief from
laws which restrict their business In ac-
oordancs with old-fashioned plans and
notions. The whole country is at last
awakening to the impropriety Of making
our money metals matter Of merchandise
