tag and number as If they were peni-
tentiary conVicts deem it prudent to
discuss the subject as if it were busi-
ness proposition rather than shrewdly
devised scheme to ignore their man
hood, destroy their individuality as
men and citizens, and make labor un-
speaksbly odious. That this is the
case, advices from Milwaukee, Joliet
and Chicago fully establish. In these
localities, where corporations are en-.
gagged in iron and steel manufacturing
enterprises, and large number of
workmen are employed, the proprie-
tors have unblushingly proposed to tar
the men, and the men are discussing
the proposition; but 80 confident are
the plutocrats that the men will con.
sent to their own degradation that the
tags have been ordered and are ready
for use.
"It is difficult to grasp the ineffable
infamy of this degrading scheme.
"If it were devised for convicts, gal
ley slaves, criminals transported to
penal colonies, it might be regarded as
prudent; but that plutocrstic employ
ers should suggest the infamous prac-
tice for American workmen is to
emulate the policy of the Russian des-
pot, who tags and numbers the victims
of his wrath whom he consigns to
torture and to death in his Siberian
mine.
"The scheme of tagging and num-
bering Workingmen proposed by the
Illinois Steel Company and kindred
corporations leaves little more to be
done to reach the lowest depths of
wsge-slsye degradation in the United
States. The tagging and numbering
infamy accomplished, the branding
iron and the iron collar will be in
order.
"Will American WOrkingmen quietly
submit to be tagged and numbered?
Indeed, will they accept the degrade
tion under any possible circumstances
or conditiOnsp
Confronted by propositions and
preparations to degrade workingmen
to the level Of beasts of burden, to the
level of dumb driven cattle, is it not
time for American workingmen to
protest and resist to the death, If re-
quired, to maintain their liberty and
their manhood, to rescue their homes
from being numbered as stalls for
cattle, their wives from the degrading
designation Of dams, and their chill
dren as the progeny Of some sire
known only by his tag and number2
eff American workingmen have not
abdiCated their manhood, if the fires
of liberty and high aspirations are not
totally extinguished, they will give
to understand that at any
and every sacrifice they will resist this
last and most infamous invasion of
their rights and liberties, and that with
their wives and children they will 90
down to honored graves rather than
live the tagged and numbered slaves
of corporations.

a so-CALLEp FALSE REPORT.

peka, has q column communication
frona Charles III. st. John, in which he
claracterizes as false q report of Mr..
R II. Barrett, a representative Of the
Ft. Worth (Tex.) Gazette, who came
ko Kansas to investigate the ef-
gect Of the prohlbitory law. Mr.. Bar
Eett, it seems, after investigating the
matter fully in Kansas City, Kas., re-
ports TO his paper that the law is a
failure. Mr.. st. John disputes this
proposition.
Evidently the question turns upon
what may be considered failure, and
whist 10 required to constitute success.
Surely if the suppression Of the liquor
traffic must be accomplished in order
that the law may be pronounced sue
cess, then it is failure. Mr.. st. John
admits the existence Of sixty. y.nine joints
running In the city In question, and he
bases his claim Of the success of the
law upon the assumed fact that this is
D smaller number than were running
one year ago. There may be those of
the Dougherty stripe Of temperance
men who will call this success, but GER
tainly 1t is not a success to boast Of.
The fact is there has never yet been
an honest effort to enforce this law by
any administration since il was en-
acted. The law was enacted by the
Republican party as piece of political
huncombs In the first place. 1t was
never designed TO be enforced. 1t has
served Its purpose from that day to
this In diverting attention from other
important questions, and dividing hon
est people politically upon this issue;
and during the whole time there has
probably never been state campaign
In which a specific bargain has not
been made with the saloon men In
Kansas City, Lesvenworth, Atchison,
Ft. Scott and Wichita which has been
satisfactory to them. There has never
been time under any administration
when the saloons in those cities have
been closed. There has never been
time when an honest effort has been
made to close them. There is not such
an effort being made now, notwith.
standing the Rev. Doughertv is con.
trolling the appointment of Police
Commissioners in Kansas City, and we
have good Sunday school superin-
tendent In che executive chair.
In reality those who have made an
honest, unbiased study Of the question
Of control Of the sale Of intoxicating
liquors must, we think, acknowledge a
serious defect in prohibitory legislation
as method. The profits In the traffic
ara too great to admit Of an easy vic.
tory over the evil. So long as those
profits are permitted to private enter

long win all efforts at control prove fu-
tlIe. IL we would eliminate the evils
of the traffic we must strike where we
can infict the most deadly blow, and
that is at the element Of private profit.
When our temperance people awaken
to the necessity of public control of the
traffic for all legitimate purposes, they
win have started upon the road to an
ultimate solution of this vexed prob.
lean. That solution viii hardly be
reached, however, By state action. The

CALL 1T CHICAGO FEVER.

New Disease Which Is Puzzljng Marine
Hospital Physicians.
NEW YORK, June 25.-The surgeons
at the navy hospital in Brooklyn, are
puzzled by peculiar malady, preva-
lent among the sailors who arrived on
the Chicago during her last cruise.
There are at present about 30 laid up
in the hospital and half dozen or
more are at the Norfolk hospital where
they were taken from the Amwhitrite,
to which many of the Chicago's crew
were transferred after the latter vessel
went out of commission. Although some
of the men in Brooklyn have been un.
der treatment for six or seven weeks,
their condition has been but little
changed. DR.. Bogart said that the dis
ease from which the men are suffering
is well known in the countries bordering
on the Mediterranean sea and that
there is no mystery about it. He ad-
mitted, however, that they had not as
yet made a satisfactory diagnosis of
the disease and the patients did not
seem to improve. The sailors take a
different view of the case. They say
the doctors are puzzled and that they
have no name for the malady, nor any
satisfactory treatment.
One OF the most dangerous features
of the Chicago fever, - as it is termed
at the navy hospital, is an excessively
high temperature. One sailor said that
his temperature had run up to 104 de-
grees, and that the temperature of the
man in the adjoining cot had reached
100. The sunstroke treatment is used
in lowering the temperature. Ice is
used in every conceivable way, a
plunge in the ice bath being the most
effective and expeditions relief. #

There ia no doubt that Cameron has
been assiduously at work among the
country districts Of Pennsylvania, and
it is said that there is considerable
silver feeling in the western part of
the state. But the anti-free silver Re-
publicans will never support Cameron,
and there is talk already Of bringing
Governor Hastings out as a presiden-
tial candidate. Hastings is one of the
most popular Republicans in the East,
and if it is decided to pit him against
Don Cameron he will probably carry
the state delegation to the next ma
tional convention.

NApoLeoN's ORIENTAL DREAMS.

He Longed TO Follow In the Footsteps Of
& Alexander the Great. Ii lEs
Bmaparte was q child Of the Mediter-
ranean. The light Of its sparkling wa
ters was ever in his eyes, and the fasci-
nation Of its ancient civilizations was
never absent from his dreams Of glory.
His proclamations ring with classic al
nsions; his festivals were adorned with
classic ceremony. In infancy he had
known Of Genoa, the tyrant of his is
land, as strong in the splendid CONNER
acial enterprises which stretched east
ward through the Levant and beyond
into the farther orient. In childhood he
had fed his imagination on the histories
of Alexander the Great and his conquest
OF oriental empires. In youth he had
thought to fra an open door for his am
bition whe1 al: others seemed closed by
taking service with England to share
the renown of those who were building
up her eastern empire. Disappointed in
this, he turned with the same lack of
success to Russia, already England IS RI
val on the continent of Asia. ~ H.
1t is perfectly comprehensive that
throughout his early manhood his mind
should have occasionally reverted to the
same ideals. The conqueror of Italy and
Austria might hope to realize them.
Was he not master Of the two great
maritime commonwealth which had
once shared all eastern trade between
them? England's intrusion upon the
Mediterranean basin was a never ceasing
irritation to all the Latin powers Her
commercial prosperity and her mastery
Of the seas aggravated the evaporation
Of France as threatening even her equaG-
ty in their ancient rivalry. From the
days of the first crusade all Frenchmen
had felt that leadership in the recon
struction Of Asia belonged to them by
virtue of preoccupation. Ardent repub-
icans, moreover, saw Frances mission
incomplete in the iberalizing of the
continent, and the department. of marine
under the directory stamped it's paper
with the motto, ''Liberty of the Seas. -
Imaginative forces, the revolution
ary system and the national ambition
all combined to create ubiquitous en-
thusiasm for the conquest of the Med
iterranean. To this the temperament
and training of Bonaparte were as the
spark to the finder. It was with willing
ears that the directory heard his first
suggestions about the Venetian isles and
subsequently his plans for the capture
of Malta, which was to be followed by
death blow to England s supremacy in

berment of Turkey.-W. M. Sloane s

Revolut onists in the city are elated
over the news that Cienfugoes has
taken arms. Cienfugoes is Spanish
stronghold. There are five Spanirds to
one Cuban. The Spaniards are the own
ers Of all the large islands in that
vicinity and were giving aid
to Campos. The insurgents decided to
cripple them by blowing up their sugar
crushing machinery, which is very
costly, with dynamite, and this they
did. The destruction by means of
dynamite of the two small forts in
Santiago de Cuba, as well as the rail-
roads in that province, is reported by
the insurgents.
In Cuban circles the report that Bur.
medex with his band had surrendered,
is denied. DR.: Gomez Y. Castero said:

BOURBON DEMOCRATS,
Lively Times Looked for in the Louisville
Convention.

Lively Times Looked for in the Louisville
Convention.
LOUISVILLE, KY, June 25.-The
Democratic state convention here will
be among the hottest contests in the
history of the commonwealth. Many
delegates were here over Sunday All
are here for the preliminary skirmish
in the district meetings. The polling
of all the Louisville papers show the
gold delegates to be in the majority.
The silver men dispute their estimate
and charge that the Louisville papers
claim most of the uninstructed dele.
gates when those delegates are equally
divided. The lines are drawn on the
Endorsement of the administration,
with Carlisle's friends leading for the
administration, and Blackburn's friends
against its financial policy. b.
General Cassius M. Clay is the ad.
ministration candidate for governor
and General P. W. Hardin is the anti
administration candidate. The silver
men will try to force nominations be-
fore the adoption of a platform. The
gold men are bitterly opposed to this
order of business, as they claim that
Hardin is stronger than the free silver
ties. Hardin is prom free silver
man, as much so as Blackburn, and if
nominated wants free silver plank.
The first test Of strength will come on
selection Of a temporary chairman, who
has the app ointment of two members at
large on all the COMMITTEES There
are IL congressional districts. It is es-
timated that the gold men will have
six and the silver men five on the COM
mittee on resolutions from the districts,
but if the silver men secure the tenn
porary organization, the platform
makers will stand to +. i
This is the fight that is being made
now. Neither side will announce its
candidate for temporary chairman, al
though Congressman w. J. Stone and
A. s. Berry are still most prominently
mentioned by their respective sides for
president Of the convention. 49,.
The Post, which strongly supports
the Administrations financial policy,
has full poll Of the delegates showing
,4S5 for Hardin, 37S for Clay and IS
doubtful. The Post says: There are
1878 delegates. 40 necessary to choice,
and the polling indicates Hardin lacks
only five votes. The Hardin men say
that they have the five votes. This is
not by any means certain. General C.
Gordo Williams was defeated Is years

in five votes Of the nomination. =.
