of Labor, and who is accompanying Mr..
Sovereign Oh his tour, was introduced
as the first speaker. He spoke at length
upon the money system as being the
principal cause for the papicky times,
and roasted congress and President
Cleveland for their inability to adjust
matters so that the deserving laborer
conld be given employment.
Mr.. Sovereign was given an ovation
when introduced as the leader of the
grandest and strongest labor organiza-
ton in the world. The speaker. in
opening his remarks,wa humorous and
kept the crowd luke-warm. He said:
''ln this beautiful country, with glo-
riOus climate, free churches, free
schools, and wonderful manufacturing
industries, there are more than 3,000,000
deserving people reaching for helping
hand. Somewhere there is a loose wheel.
Can any one imagine what is the cause
of So much poverty? Does any one think
we can pay for the cupons on S400, 0O0.0 00
worth OF bonds owned in London and
on Wall street without making million
aires on one hand and paupers on the
other? Today we have the walls of the
poor in the land of the plenty.
There is ample remedy for all the
wrongs of our country. If You want
good government you must vote to send
good government to Washington. l am
not here to denounce the Goulds and
the Vanderbilts. If want to find fault
l will find fault with the working peo-
pie. They have ninety-nine votes to
every one that the capitalist has. Our
working people do not know very much
about our government. They must
learn that the ballot is the crystallizing
element of our country.
"In this country if milkman waters
his product he is arrested, fined or sent
to Jail. but il a railroad magnate is
caught watering his stock he is merely
looked upon as ShreWd fellow. No
wonder that railroads go into the hands
of receivers, and that Judges are cor
rupted to issue injunctions restraining
the laborer from stopping work at re-
duced wages under penalty of being I'M
priSoned."
The speaker referred to the injunc-
ton recently issued against him by
Judge jenkins 10 prevent him from
counSeling his fellow men that were
employed with the Northern Pacific.
The Injunction prevented him from
burning bridges, obstructing traffic, etc,
This announcement created consider
able laughter. He said he was opposed
to strikes. They are fatal when they
are successful. If he had believed in
strikes, he said he would not have paid
the slightest attention to the Injunction
The speaker dissected the money and
bond system ingeniously.an also spoke
of the necessity Of organization.

A GLOOMY OUTLOOK.

Grand Master Sovereign on the
Labor Problem The Jenkins
Decision.
Grand Master Workman J. R. Sover-
eign, who is making a lecture tour of
the Northwest, arrived in the city yes
terday and registered at the Brunswick.
Speaking of the decision of Judge Jen-
kins in the Northern Pacific railway
case he said:
1t is in violation of the rights granted
to American citizens by the constitution
OF the United States. As far as strikes
themselves are concerned. thew are most
injurious to all parties interested ana to
the country itself. L am utterly and
Numerically opposed to strikes under
almost any conditions. They ruin the
cause even If the strikes are won. As
| said before, there are only two meth
DDS of relief. But this idea of placing
the identity of soulless corporation
above the individual and collective
rights of American labor is wrong. The
whole attitude of capital and present
legislation seems to be in this direction.
"Whiie | was i'll one of the leading
financial centers of the East few days
ago, | was asked to appear before a
cierS of the country. l found that they
looked at the question in very sensible
and serious light. l told them some
very pointed facts about the present
condition, and also learned several
points myself. The American cor
porationS which seem to be bleeding
American labor TO such an extent are
not always alone responsible for this.
They are in turn bled by foreign capi.
tai, which is reaching out and grasping
American securities as fast as it possl-
bly, can. But this is not the fault of
labor, which is, at present at least, the
only factor to suffer. The whole finan-
clal system is against labor. There is
too much Capitalization of power and
wealth. This must be overcome by
legislation, and that. and only that, Is
what the dreaded term labor agitation
stands for.o
Referring to the labor outlook he
spoke as follows:
1.-The outlook is gloomy, indeed. | say
gloomy, not because | think that the
present subjected condition of the labor
ing man is to continue as it is, for 1t is
not, but it is gloomy because there
surely is crisis at hand. There is no
telling what form this crisis will take.
There are just two things to he done to
remedy the existing evls--one is open
and bloody instruction OH the part of
labor. and the other is relief through
the ballot box. OF course, the latter is
what we are striving for. 1t is the
only right way to go at the mat
ter. 1t Is wicked aid dangerou,
even to talk about the former, but there
is possibility that it may come. We
hope that it will not, but the strained
condition of the millions of idle and
starving men now in the country cannot
last. History shows that when things

ing Yesterday.
The board of education at it's meeting
yesterday afternoon emphasized the fact
that Minneapolis is greatly in need or
new school buildings to supply the
demand being constantly made upon It's

himself of the opinion that If the court

supreme court the board might get up a
fictitious one ana have it go through far
more successfully than the court house
bonds? The matter was finally referred
to the finance committee to consult
with the commissioners of the sinking
fund and the council committee OH ways
and means, and ascertain what steps
might be taken toward securing money
to build the shool houses needed the
present summer.
The following appointments Of teach
ers were made: Mary G. Olson. Monroe
school; Emma George, Prescott school;
Harry M. EggIeston, Adams school
Mary Ford, Grant school.
The board will meet at 10 o'clock

Harvey transfer ordinance would be
carried to the court of last resort by

An authority said Yesterday that the
real nut of the case was this: Is there
an impairing of the obligations of a
contract? He thinks that there is, and
that the higher courts must so decide.
He says further that the principle at
stake is the same one that was argued
by Daniel Webster in the famous Dart
mouth college case, which case will be
the precedent when the supreme court
gets hold of the matter.
