Senator McGillivray has intro
duced a carefully prepared bill ito
protect laborers. manufacturers,
railroad and business men against
any unlawful combinations and
strikers, and to provide a just
means of settlement" This latter
is a board Of five arbitrators to be
appointed upon the demand of
either party to dispute. or upon
that of the district attorney in the
interests of the public. One men,
Der is to be chosen by the en-
ployees, another by the company,
and the others by the circuit judge
from list of names submitted.
In the assembly three bills have
been introduced by Mr.. Prochnow,
relative to wages paid by corpora
tons, prohibiting conspiracy
among employers, and providing a
fixed number of hands on trains.
These are probably but a starter
in the lines of bills which will be
brought forward to deal with the
labor problem, forming probably
the most important-certainly the
most Neutrality-suspicious. with
which the lawmakers will have to
deal.

CastOria.

"Castoria is an excellent medicine for chill
dren. Mothers have repeatedly told me Of its
good effect upon their children"
Dr.. G. G.. OsGoop,
Lowell, Mass.
"Castoria is the best remedy for children Of
which am acquainted hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest Of their children, and use Castoria in
stead of the variousq uack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their threats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

"Our physicians In the children's depart

The State Journal says that the
regulation of clerkships and
salaries in the various departments
at the capitol is strictly a legisla-
tive function, and it thinks the
legislature could do nothing better
than to apply itself to this task.
In doing this it would simply be
following the example set in the
management Of the affairs of the
national government. This, says
the Journal, would be business
like method, and would produce a
harmony of action which is not
possible where the heads Of de-
partments determine the number
and salary of their assistants. To
prove its point it cites several cases
The assistant treasurer, who has
practically the whole responsibility
of the office, who handles the
money, who has to make good the
shortages if such occur, who gives
heavy bonds, gets $4,000, while
the book-keeper gets $4,000, and
three ordinary clerks get $500
each. The assistant attorney
general, whose office is laborious
and important, gets but $4,000.
In numerous places it is seen that
clerks with mere routine duties to
perform get as much as do
assistants in other departments
with more work and with heavy
responsibilities.

The proposition to create a
board of pardons meets with
approval. Much of the governors
time is spent in looking over
applications for pardons and
listening to arguments in favor OIL
them. And that is not the only
objection to the present system.
If the governor sees fit he may
empty the prison; the constitution
gives him the power, and some
times it seems as though that were
the determination Of governor,
During the past eight years more
than 800 prisoners, large number
OF them sent up for life, have been
pardoned. There is more than a
lurking suspicion in the minds oil
some that good many of these
liberated people should still be
within prison walls.

There was a satisfied smile on
the faces of the republicans in the

ing strongly with the scowl which
the democratic faction wore, when
Mr.. Lamberson introduced the

Whereas. the last preceding

"oesolved, that we congratulate

Several bills directed against
filled cheese and oleomargerine
have been sent into the hands of
committees. Among them is one
by Assemblyman Blake which
forbids the manufacture or sale Of
cheese made in part or whole of
skinned milk to which has been
added any fat foreign to such milk;
also the sale of cheese made from
milk from which any of the
original fat has been removed,
except such cheese is ten inches in
diameter and nine inches in height.
The bill also imposes a heavy fine
for the selling of oleo in place of
butter, or furnishing it at hotels
without giving notice to the guests
of such substitution.

New York. Oct. IA movement has
beer Put on foot TO revive the commit

to take steps necessary to bring about

This movement is inspired by the ac-

convention last night In nominating a
ticket against the advice OF a majority
OF the executive committee. The
chances for success were considered
good by those who took part in the
initiative. DIR. @. ". Parkhurst has

Stewart Smith. who Is at present at
Stamford. Conn:
'Our only chance is to hold a mass
meeting ana create a new committee
of 20. Last nights inconsiderate and
lnharmonious action cannot but fall
dead"
DIR. Parkhurst Is confident that q
combination Of anti-Tammany organi-
cations and electors is possible. He
attributed the ACTON OF hast night to
youthful enthusiasm and excessive
zeal" He says that the Good Gov
eminent clubs, while claiming To be
rhe Successors or the committee OF 20,
have not taken up the duties and pur-
poses OF the committee. and that
therefore the only thing TO do is to
recraate the COMMITTEES.
