A Socialist leader OF this city wrote to
Eugene V. Debs asking him what he had TO
say in regard to the recent action of the
State Federation of Labor nominating him
for Governor. To this letter the following
reply was received, written at Debs's die
tation:
Your kind favor of the 18th inst, ad-
dressed TO Mr.. Debs, has been opened by
the undersigned. as Mr.. Debs is in Jail.
i showed your letter to him this morning
and he said: while thanking my friends
for their support. which is in the highest
degree complimentary, i desire to say,
once for all, that l would not under any
conceivable circumstances, be a candidate
for any political office whatever. / am
in labor, not in politics, and while / expect
to take active part in political affairs,
would not, however, accept any political
office within the gift of the people. / am

party, and shall do what i for the

who has not been lin labor except as
salaried leader and agitator for many years
past. expects to continue on that line,
and though he will take an active part in
political affairs he will not accept any
office. 1t is also of interest to learn that
he has graduated from the Democratic into
the Populist party, evidently regarding the
latter as, all things considered, the most
anarchstic party of the times.

the paper will be suspended for two months.
In making the announcement it says:

Is by no means bright, and the figure il is
to cut useful force in the affairs of the
ting its face against the teachers and pro-
motors or revolution-men who no longer

Labor has nothing 10 expect from a bloody

organized capital. IL has everything TO ex-
pect IL the battle is waged upon the line or
reason.
II the publication Of the Labor Signal
shall be resumed, 1t is TO be hoped 1t will
continue TO advocate these views. The best
interests of labor. as we'll as capital, lie in
the maintenance Of friendly relations. and
this can never be accomplished while the
efforts Of salaried labor leaders and agi-
tators are directed to promoting misunder-
standings and bringing on strikes and boy
colts. The spirit of organized labor, as
calculated TO widen the breach between
capital and labor, but to drive all good citi-
zens into opposition to organized labor as
menace to law and order and even to the
government itself. 1t will take organized
labor a good while to recover from the
odium which has been brought upon 1t by
recent events.

In the memorable correspondence which

may have become Of her glory, and the
theory that she needed Mr. Gresham IS

try should have yearned for him in the
wistful way described by the President

nomination in 1884 Mr.. Cleveland said:
1t should be remembered that the office

nature. The laws enacted by the legis-

executive is bound faithfully to enforce.

asked permission to fly the colors of the

the permission was granted on condition
that he would not race over land-locked

brought defeat which is humiliating. One
of the club has said that Gould would

An Evening With Andrew Lang.

The spelling of the name Of Miss Agnes
Repplier and her singular felicity in
epigram and phrase inevitably suggest
her familiar name in Philadelphia. where
she lives. This is the 'replier." Her
dinner conversation in this respect is cell
ebrated among her friends. Miss Rep
plier, as is well known, worships at one
particular shrine, that of Andrew Lang.
Last summer Miss Repplier was in Eng
land and had the anticipated good for
tune to be asked to meet Andrew Lang
st dinner. 1t would not have been hu-
man for Miss Repplier not to have made
. mental toilet as she adorned her body

told, in England is a serious matter.
Course after course passed unseasoned
by joke, unspiced by epigram and with
cut the grace Of felicitous allusion. It at
1ength came 70 an end. Nor did the con-
vsrsation have any future. The great
Andrew sat down ON the floor and PLAYED
