nine articles, she would rather
surrender the whole Of them than
thirty ninth part Of her revenue. What is
so inexplicable then is the absence Of class
hatred and even class consciousness on the
part Of the British proletariat, In no coun-
try in the world is there less class feeling
on the part of the working class than there
is in this country, yet in no country in the
world are the workers regarded with
greater hatred, contempt and loathing by
the plundering classes than they are in this
country. Why are not the workers more
bitter? That is the puzzling ques-
ton. The British workmen, as
class, grovel before the class which spits
upon and contemns them, and smilingly
kiss the boot that kicks them. Yet If love
of country, with its consequent hatred OF
other natonalities is sentiment to be in
culcated and encouraged, loyalty to ones
own class and hatred of the class which
Expresses it and robs it are thousand times
more justiiable. However strong may
be the hatred Of Britishers by Yam
KEGS or Germans it is not nearly
SO StrOnB anu 30 UiJter ho tho he''A0o ASA'
FOR the workers of all lands by the class
which lives and thriyes by plundering
them. Why should not the workers repay
this hatred with hate? Why not divert
that feeling of bitterness, constantly ex-
pressed in violent language and sometimes
in violent deeds, from an imaginary enemy
abroad to the real enemy at home? The
foreign enemy may or may not invade
our shores, but he could not very well
rob us moro than the Capitalist has done.
Our class is forced into dens and novels;
to slave in the factories for bare living
or to starve in the streets. Servitude and
starvation make up the lot of the workers
from the cradle to the grave. And then
they cheerfully vote into power the class
which imposes this lot upon them, and
gaily shoulder rifles in defense Of this class
and of its right to plumber. When will
they recognize their real enemies, and
setting class before country, as their
exploiters have long since done, join hands
with their fellows in all lands to make
war upon the enemy of mankind-inter-
national Capitalism.

ST. PETERSBURG, RUSSIA.

A Society For Promoting Industry
and Trade.
The "Society for Promoting Industry and
Trade in Russia' has addressed questions
to number of employers, large and small,
asking for their views on the subject of a
legal restriction Of working hours, and
many of them have declared themselves
favorable to such regulation, among them
DR.. Stulchinsky, the manager of the paper
mill at Dobrush, in the Province of Moghi-
lev, where an experimental reduction Of
the working hours from twelve to eight was
made in May, 1894. The following is an
extract from DR.. Stulchinsky's letter with
regard to the working of this experiment
during the past year and half: II have
been managing Prince Paskievitch's mill
for twenty years. The nature Of the
business requires that the work be carried
on day and night. Up to May, 1894, the
length of the shifts was twelve hours.
Eighteen months ago I determined to try
and reduce the hours Of those
working by the day to nine and
of those employed on shifts to eight.
Instead of increased drinking by the

workmen, the result has been that the only
drink shop in the place has had to give up
business, its place being taken by tea
shop, where only moderate quantities OF
spirits can be obtained. Saint Monday
is almost thing of the past. The older
people, as rule, employ their leisure time
in tilling their plot Of land, which they
formerly let on lease. The younger ones
have taken to reading. An orchestral and
vocal union has been established, Of which
thirty-si factory operatives are members.
Between 400 and SEQ operatives regularly
attend lectures got up by the local priest.
Such things were impossible under the old
twelve hour system; for there is only one
recl cation for exhausted workers, and that
is spirit drinking, which quickly stimulates
their energies.''

PRAGUE, AUSTRIA.

The Rapid Growth of the Austrian
Labor Party.
The Austrian Socialist Congress was held
at Prague. There was great concourse of
delegates, proving the enormous expan-
sion Of Socialism in Austria. On motion
of the Austrian Socialist leader, DR.. Victor
Adler, it was agreed that the Socialist
Party committee should henceforth include
representatives of all the Austrian people,
Germans, Poles and even Slavonians and
Italians. Herr Molkenbuhr, member of
the German Reichstag, representing Ham
burg, told the Congress of Socialists that
Germany rejoiced in the progress of the
party in Austria and promised that all
practical support should be given to them.

Labor Notes.

Perhaps the most important news Of the
week from France is the judgment in what
will be the historical case of Resseguier, Of
Carmaux, against Jaures and two advanced
journals, an action instituted on account Of
the support gwen by them to the glass
workers in the great lockout Of last
autumn. The court has upheld the right
of Intervention and has consequently nom
suited the plaintiff and condemned him to

Socialistic times the philanthropic NJ. Res
seguier is compelled to live in!
The quarter century celebration of the
proclamation of the Commune has been
well observed by the various Labor parties
in France. Commemorative meetings
have also been held in Germany and else
where.
Deputy Valiant proposed an amendment
to the project of the 1900 exhibition pro-
viding for, among other things, the eight
hour work day, weekly day of rest, and
union rates of wages for the workmen en-
gagged in this undertaking. Jules Guesde
interviewed in the debate and rallied the
Government on account of its hesitation.
The everlasting stalking horse of foreign
competition, he pointed out, could not
apply in this case; but the majority was
obdurate, and, while allowing tho day OF
rest, threw out the eight-hours day by 30S
to $50 votes.
Seven or eight hundred match makers
employed in the Government factories at
Pantin and Aubervilliers met few days
ago in Paris to decide upon the attitude to

And sleep at night, with SILVER and cramp,
Like a brute in barn or shed!
o, life is game in DEVILS ring,
Where one in thousand wins,
But death must be jolly thing,
For a skeleton always grins.
We ask for work, we ask for bread,
And they manacle our feet,
And march us out to the chain gang tread
To work on the city street.
o God, when was it crime before
To make pauper's appeal?
God pity the tramp and pity the poor,
What can We do but steal?
One way is open-is open to all
We can flee this horrible strife,
A little powder, a little ball,
Will end this nightmare life.

Or heaven, if that may be,
He made the prince, and the tramp as

And he will welcome me.

The Social Welfare in Saxony.
The Saxon Socialists who met at Dresden
discussed plan of action in opposition to
the new electoral franchise law, which de-
prives the masses of their voting power in
the Saxon Unterhause. A minority in the
Congress advocated a resolution that the
Socialist deputies in the Unterhaus make q
demonstration against the law by i'm
mediately resigning their membership in
that body and refusing to contest the vacant
seats for re- election under the restricted
franchise. The majority, however, de-
cided to test the sense of the constituencies
upon the new system at the next election.

OF the various woods classified by
the national forestry commission,
white pine ranks first from the stand
point of commercial use, and the other
pines next, these being used chiefly for
house finishing and other kindred pur-
poses. The general use of oak in the
better grade Of house finishing and in
manufacture of furniture gives that
wood next place. Then comes the less
important hard woods, including ash,
birch, maple, etc. Hickory, which is
used chiefly for wagon stock, is one Of
the woods least used, the annual cut
not reaching more than 250,O00,0O0
feet, as against 5000, 100000 feet of oak.
Black walnut has now become SO scarce
that it has practically ceased to be

Probably the first instance Of court
recognizing the Roentgen discovery as
a means of establishing fact in evil
dence is that in which the District
United States court at Wichita, Kan,
on April 4, directed that a shadowgraph
be taken of the wrist Of Peter Noel, who
is suing the Santa Fe road for SIC, 900
damages for wrongly setting the frac-
ture of his wrist. The question Of what
the best evidence is in a case of that
kind came up, and all the parties inter-
ested, as well as the court, agreed in
the light Of modern science, shadow
graph of the wrist would be the best
evidence. Consequently the court d.
rected Lucien Blake, professor Of cleo
tricity in the state university Of Kan
sas, to make the test in court.

In Sweden, according to travellers
who have resided in that country, 1t Is
a household custom to provide rooms
where the children may go and cry, and
scream, and make all the noise they
need to. In all other parts of the house
they are expected to be quiet and mind
full Of the presence of their elders. On
the whole it seems rather good plan
good for the children and good for
the elders, too.

WORCESTER, MASS.
Direct LEGISLATION.


Law says Adams must not build its
municipal lighting plant, asa would in
fringe the privileges of corporations. How
can these conditions be overcome? Many
plans If governmental reforms are pro-
posed, which recommend themselves in
greater or less degree, but the adoption Of
any or all of them depends on the com
bined intelligence of the people, and
no doubt exists in my mind as to
the not far distant realization Of
that which will best stand the test Of
scientific analysis, showing as its logical
results the nearest approach to justice,
equality of opportunity and guaranteeing
TO each the full value of their product. The
particular question upon which desire to
lay emphasis is not SO much what'we will
do bye and bye, as what must be done now.
See, there is tree; at the top is the prize
we crave; at the foot is agitation.
Next comes State Legislatures, and on
these lower branches are scattered
various fruits, such as sectional
ism, race and religious prejudices.
bloody shirts and tariff dialogues which
divert the attention Of those on the ground
from the State constitutions, which so sadly
need both pruning and grating. Next
above this is the National Congress, sur
rounded by boughs laden with silver planks,
income tax bills, anti monopoly laws that
won't work, pensions and bounties. Un-
questionably this fruit is superior to none at
all, or to that on the lower limbs, but the
picking is delegated to few, and they seem
not inclined to throw down overmuch Of
the best. There, zealously guarded by
those in power, is the National Con,
stitution, which must be amended be-
fore any material advance can
be made toward the next level, which is
veritable platform capable Of supporting all
within reaching distance Of the perfect
fruit; but upon that platform which is
called direct legislation, we can not stand
until we have first acquired possession OF
the lower branches and, by amending the
constitutions. made it legal. This done
we find ourselves in q position to choose.
All that the tree brings forth is
within reach There are protection
plums especially for manufacturers,
free-t trade radishes solely for job
bers, free land is there and
prohibition and regulation Of liquor traffic
with temptation removed. There, too, is
the fairest and most perfect fruit ripe for
picking -common ownership of the means
of production and distribution-with
guarantee of full value for labor expended,
free and compulsory education made Access
sible to all, pensions for young, old and in
firm, physical health and comfort and
mental development. Who would turn
back to that worm eaten fruit be-
low? What the majority choose is theirs.
The money power is broken, monopoly Of
every kind, instead of being a burden,
may now be blessing. Individual devel-
opment may then be general, whereas now
it is rare Truth, Justice and Equity vii
reign instead of Doodle and corruption, and
the race will have advanced from the las
form Of slavery into the fullness of free
dom. A. W. BARR.

The clergymen of Warrensburg, NO.,
are in open warfare against High Five,
q game of chance, which twenty-seven
of the Warrensburg church ladies have
been playing. The ladies have filed
counter accusations against the clergy
men for playing the game Of Up-Jen-
kins, which they say knocks High Five
sky high. At this distance it looks as
If the ladies would play the dickens
