positc Views.

A discussion was INDUCED in by the men,
bers of the Young Mems Christian Association
Literary Society last night on the live topic OF
labor unions. The text of the debate was:
Are Trade Unions Injurious to the Working
Classes"
Messrs. Freeman and Williamson main-
tanned they were, because they forced skilled
and incompetent labor to agree to uniform
price for work done. Messrs. Dalton, De
knight, and Lasker opposed this argument,
and proceeded to prove that through organiza-
tion the workingman was in better social,
material, and financial condition. No vote
was taken on the result of the debate.

An appeal is made to Catholics to enable
Carroll Institute to wipe out a floating in
debtedness of $4,000 on its property.
About year and half ago the organiza-
ton completed its new building on Tenth
street, above New York avenue, at cost OF
$4,000.
It was arranged to wipe out this debt by
members subscribing for the bonds issued by
the institute, but the hard times coming on
have made it impossible to float the bonds.
The plan now is to secure as many life or
active members as honorable, and also to
start popular subscription.

Higher Prices for Hides.

n July, 1893, owing to the II
IL nancial depression, in the
United States. or other causes,
hides declined in price to the
lowest point ever known. Hides
that in May brought S cents per
pound, in July brought only 3
cents. But prices had been
steadily declining for two years,
now a change is coming. In
July last prices again started up,
and in the small space of two
months a jump from 81 to ~
has taken place in San Francis
CO markets. These prices are
for the average Hawaiian hide.
This will be cheering news to
the Island butcher, as for the
past year it has hardly paid him
to salt and ship his hides.
All who have hides to sell
will please remember we are
paying the highest prices for
green sailed hides.
