During the discussion of the Wilson bill
last week Mr.. Clarke, of Missouri, said
Democrats who did not like the Wilson bill
because il did not clean the Augean stables
shou d remember that the committee had
worked against the aceumulations OF thirty
years. Rrform, like charity, should begin
at home Three men had made heroes of
themselves, Wilson, Of West Virginia /;
RaynOr, Of Maryland, and Tom Johnson,
Of Ohio, by total disregard of their local
interests. The Republican press sueered at
Mr.. Wilson. They called him professor"
Wilson. They sneered aud seemed to have
a contempt for intelligence. Laughter -
rhey said he WAS sacrificing himself 1t
might be. but he did not believe it. The
storm that arose against sir Robert Peel had
driven him from place aud power, but eng
lishmeu were now delighted to call him one
of their greatest statesmen. On his tomb
they had written, The man who gave the
people cheap bread" The coal aud iron
combines and The other thievish trusts might
pour enough money into Mr.. Wilson's dis
trict to defeat him, but # they did the PEG
pie would take him up in their arms and
bear him TO q higher place. They might
destroy Congressman, but in doing so they
might make a President. This compliment
to Mr. Wilson WAS greeted with thunderous
annlau.e.

4 NOTABLE AGREEMENT,

The agreement which has been made
 between the Tyne, Wear, Tees and Hartlepooi shipbuilders and the execu- tive council of the Boiler makers and Iron and Steel Shipbuilders' society, one of the most important trade-unions in Great Britain, is an interesting at- temt to bridge what is called the chasm between Capital and Labor. In respect to wages, it sets forth that no general alteration shall be made until after six calendar months have elapsed from the date of the last alteration
 and no single alteration can exceed 5 per cent. Four weeks notice in writ ing is to be given. Previous to such notice being given by either side, re- quest for a meeting between the associ- ated employers and the Boiler ma kers' society must be given by the party in- tending to give notice: this meeting to be held within fourteen days after the receipt of the request. Failing agreement during the months notice, the ftotice may be extended to any time not exceeding another month, if acceptable to both parties; but, what ever the settlement may be- the ad- vance or reduction If ahyl will begin
