CENTRAL LABOR UNION AND POLITICS.

Delegate Winston created lively discussion in
the Central Labor Union meeting in Clarendon
Hall yesterday by introducing a resolution calling
the union to declare itself for definite and In
dependent plan OF political action In the coming
campaign He said that the workingmen should
elect their own candidates to the Legislature and
other branches Of the Government. They should
be Independent OF all political parties.
Delegate Lloyd opposed the resolution. He said
that the object of the Central Labor Union was to
get fair days wages for fair days work. He
said that while his unionthat OF the tin and sheet
iron workers-discussed politics at nearly every
meeting, he did not think that the Central Labor
Union was sufficiently advanced an organization
to decide on independent political action He de-
nounced those men who were always talking Of In
dependent political action for the union He said
that he had known many OF them to sell OUT when
they had got the chance.
The discussion waxed warm. and many delegates
were on their feet at the same time clamoring for
recognition. Delegate Hoadley poured oil on the
troubled waters by little speech in which he said
that the Central Labor Union knew no political
party. and that II best TO walt until the fate OF
several bills In favor of organized labor now In
Albany was known before a definite line of political
action was adopted by the Union
1t was voted to refer the resolution back to the
trades unions for their further consideration. The
matter will come before the Central Labor Union
again at the end Of a month.

AK ARMENIAN on ARMENIA's WOES.

The Rev. Thomas Dixon. jr. preached Yesterday
at the Academy Of Music. taking for the prelude 10
his regular Sunday sermon the subject OF Ar
menia's SUFFERING" DR.. Dixon denounced the mas
sacres of the Turks in Armenia. and said that the
number of Armenians slain gave no adequate IDEA
OF the number Of people who were left helpless and
homeless.
THE Turks said he. always chose the hour
when the Armenians went to market to do their
deadly work. The market hour chosen be-
cause at that time the bread winners among the
Christians all together pursuing their business
vocations When the heads of the families were
IN lsslcred their children and wives became abso-
lutely helpless and destitute"
Dr. Dixon then said he would Introduce young
Armenian 10 the congregation who would tell them
something about the massacres.
Il cannot give you this mans name said he,
''as his parents and friends live in Armenia, and II
IL was known that he had spoken about the massa-
crc6 vengeance might be vented his relatives
by the Turks
The Armenian who was sitting on the stage, then
came forward and made brief address, telling OF
the recent atrocities In his native land. He Is
native of the city OF Anab, where great restitution
exists at present among the Christians owing to
the mas~acres.

youth and manhood, in war and in peace.
His great ability, his originality OF thought,
his power in debate. his strong will, are
known of all men and are part of the history OF
the last twenty years. His public career is as
spotless as his private character is pure and
unblemished. He is 8 trained statesman MT

We knowgit because we have seen him lead.
To those who have followed him he never said
"Go," but always "Come." He is entirely
fearless. We know it, for we have seen his
courage tested on hundred fields. He has
been called to great places and to great trials
and he has never failed nor finched. He is

SECONDED BY LlTTLEFlELD.

Reeds nomination was loudly ap-
plauded, many OF the delegates rising
and waving flags amid much cheering.
The nomination was seconded by Charles
E. Llttlefeld of Rockland, Ne. Mr.. Lit
tlefield said:
In the nominee of this convention will be
the next President of the Republic. That the
Republican party is victorious in the coming
Campaign, whoever its candidate may be, has
long since been settled by the manifold blum
ders-worse than crimes--that have been COM
mited by the Democratic party. 1t has demon
strated its incapacity to direct the affairs OF
the Nation in full measure, heaped up, running
over. 1t was intrusted with power by forget-
ful and forgiving people at time OF unex-
ampled prosperity, with an oyerhoWing Ma
tional treasury, an unlimited public credit, all
labor fully and proftably employed wheels
turning, looms moving, furnaces glowing and
machinery humming-the music that attends
profitable, diversified industry. These were
the inevitable results of the intelligent appli-
cation of that elemental principle OF our sys-
tenn of government, coeval with the birth
agony OF neutrality-suspicious. to American
labor and industry.
The Democratic party, after having de-
nounced the Mckinley tariff as the "eulminaL-
ing atrocity of class legislation, and set forth
lts declaration OF alleged principles, asking 1or
a change of administration and party in order
that there might be a ''change of system and a
change of method" We have change in ad-
mfnistration and party, change of system
and method, and a complete reversal of results.
In 1896 we see the perfect converse of the pic
ture presented in 1892. In that great achieve
ment of Democratic craftsmanship the con-
fessed misbegotten offspring of cowardiee,
perfdy and dishonor, a tariff for deficiency
only, professor" Wilson declared he had just
begun to "shell the protected indus tries of the
North"
The opening gun of his campaign was sufi-
cient to drive timid capital to inaccessible
spots, extinguish the fires, silence the looms,
pa-alyze industry, turn honest labor into the
street and plunge the country into con-
dition of business depression hitherto un-

at all. The voices of speakers on the plat
form sounded far off and even the music
of the band came family enough to occu-
pants of the corners of the galleries. Res
idents in the vicinity of the convention
hall said that the cheering of 14000.yoices
could be heard six blocks distant. Seldom
in the history of National political conven-
tions has there gathered such an immense
and enthusiastic concourse of people.
Thousands of fans waving in the great
hall, the brilliant colors Of flags, festoons
and feminine apparel, made the scene an
animated one. 1t was worth thousand
mile trip just to see the immense sea Of
human faces, all animated, all earnest and
enthusiastic tor the Republican standard
bearer, and TO hear them cheer. What
pulse could beat slowly when Ia, 900 voices
cheered for the great Ohioan, while the
band played patriotic airs? Every man of
them was glad to witness such sublime
spectacle, and every man was glad he was
a mem ber of the great Republican party.
Ex-senator ingalls, of Kansas, who has
attended many National conventions Of
his party, and who sat in the press reserve,
said he had never witnessed a more thrill
ing or enthusiastic scene than after Foraker
hao nominated Mckinley.
