INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 11.-Rev. J. A.
RCndthaler, pastor of the Tabernacle
Presbyterian church, of this city, and
a leading minister, last night peremp-
tCrily rendered his resignation. The
trouble dates back to the early summer,
when DR.. Rondthaler became q devotee
Of the bicycle, and INDUCED in long
rides. This gave offense to the con-
servatives of his congregation and their
criticisms caused a breach, which grad

Probabilities Regarding the North
ern Pacific Receivership.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Jan. 11.-George
P. Miller and ex-senator Spooner, at
| torneys for the Northern Pacific receiv-
ers, leave for Washington tomorrow
| morning. 1t is expected that the ap-
plication to the supreme court will be
made Monday afternoon. In the event
of the supreme court appointing one of
the circuit courts to take charge of the
raceiverships, it is considered probable
by attorneys here that Judge CaldweIls
court in st. Paul will be selected. This
would satisfy both Judge Jenkins and
Judge Hanford. and if it is done there
is little likelihood that there will be any
change in the present personnel of the
receivers, Messrs. Bigelow, McHenry
and Burleigh being appointed receivers
for the entire line. Attorneys outside
Of the case are watching the matter
with a good deal of interest, as there is
much speculation as to the attitude of
the supreme court justices with respect
to the matter
NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE Northern
Pacific receivership Will be submitted
to the associate supreme court justices
of the Second, Seventh, Eighth and
Ninth circuits. Argument will be heard
by them next Tuesday at Washing
ton. These justices are Peckharn, Har-
Ian, Brewer and Field. It is believed
that their dictum will be announced
within a week after this hearing. 1t
is deemed certain that the justices Will
uphold Judge Banfords exercise of
primary jurisdiction. The effect Of
this decision Will be far-rSaching. 1t
Will render INVALID the appointment
of Receivers Bigelow and McHenry by
Judge Jenkins. It will thus overthrow
completely all remnants of the Willard
administration, and will place the COM
pany entirely under a new, conscien-
tious and able management, by which
its interests viii be Well conserved.
The practical and actual result of the
expected decision will also be to place
the matter in the hands of Judge Han
ford, with the certainty of the con-
currence of all the other United States
courts interested, including those in
New York, st. Paul and Chicago. This
will insure a harmonious receivership,
which will be in accord with President
Ives and the large bond and stock
holding interests which he represents.
1t will necessarily he accepted by 9TH
er interests. All this will insure uni
ty, which has hitherto been lacking in
Northern Pacific affairs, and will pave
the way for a speedy reorganization,
thereby imparting a strong impulse to
the growth and prosperity of the rail-
way and the states with which it is
connected.

great majority of those who ap-
plaud his utterances, misguided
dupes, hypnotized by the afore-
said serpents ofplutucracy into
riveting with great acclaim the
chains of slavery on their own
souls. What would you call a
man who went cahoots with a
thief in robbing his own house
and then was satisfied with the
moiety of his swag? Such are
the advocates of the gold stand

their own labor and any kind
of value other than obligations
payable in money. You can
name them yourself, John. Re-
spect for their families prevents
us from applying the proper

The erstwhile free silver Bre'r
John w. Norton, assumes much
offense because the pops call
the republicans naughty names
like "gold bugs" etc., and re-
cognizing that mighty few gold
pieces are ever seen by the
masses of the party, whats
left of them), wants to know
what a gold bug is. A gold
bug is a fellow who advocates
no primary money but gold,
because it is to his interest that
we have a scarce and appreciat-
ing dollar-one that continu-
ally comes to represent more
value, and requires, therefore,
more and more of labor and it's
products to get, he and his class
having all the gold. We doubt
there being a real gold bug in
Duluth-ata any rate the country
over, not more than one to the
thousand population. The other
goldites are composed of two
Classes. First, like the ex-sil-
verite above named, those who
are selling their talents to the
aforesaid real gold bugs for
cash or favors-to-come, and,
therefore, more properly are

The Jumping-Jack.

One of the arguments used
is: Business men are not poll
ticians. Business men are in
terested in the welfare of the
country and the interest of the
business man and the laboring
man are identical. Anything
that will help the condition of
the workingmen helps the bust
ness man, etc.
Admitting this all to be true;
who are the business men of
this country? The business
men of this western country
are owned body and soul by the
eastern capitalists. What is
true of the western business
man is true of the small bust
ness man of the east. They are
controlled by the money gamb-
ling sharks of which the bank
ing house of Rothschild is the
head. These nabobs and gen.
teel money gamblers are the
profoundest hypocrites on
record. They consider the
laboring man but one degree
above a brute burden bearer,
and care less for his welfare
than they do for that of their
horses or dogs. If there was
nothing in the gold standard
for themselves, they would drop
it in an instant. The gold bug
"business man" jumping jack
talks whenever the string is
pulled.

The Rothschilds recently
bought fourth interest in the
Anaconda copper mine at Butte,
Mont, for $7,500,OO0 and now
they have bought another
fourth for $10,0O0,O00. These
are the people who by the grace
of forever Cleveland are sapping
the substance of American
labor through interest on bonds,
and the transaction at Butte is
only another purchase by for
eigners' of American property
with American money.

The Reason of 1t.

The Reason OF 1t.
One of the most amusing
things in economic discussion is
to see a practical socialist Bit
terly den0unce socialism. Broad
ly speaking, socialism is cooper
alton logically developed. Co.
operation on a narrow basis
gives us partnerships, joint stock
companies and corporations; ex-
tended until the entire popula-
ton is brought within the circle
of it's benefits, it becomes state
socialism. The men denomi-
mated socialists are subjected
continually to abuse and insult:
Yet their critics agree with them
as to the benefits of co-opera-
ton and differ only in that they
fail to carry it's fundamental
ideas to any logical or humani-
tartan conclusion.
These critics of socialism lack
logic, or are inconsistent, for
apparently, if not really actuated
by sef-interest, they favor CO.
operation only when it puts
money in their own pockets. All
corporations and cooperative
enterprises are socialistic in what
might be called an aristocratic
sense. Their benefits are neces-
sarily confined to a comparative
few, and their promoters, seek
ing to continue them for their
Individual welfare, bitterly de-
nounce that broader form of CO.
operation which would eliminate
their opportunities to divert to
themselves, or monopolize, such
advantages, by bringing all the
people to share in the benefits.
Is it too much to say that it is
because this larger and more
logical cooperation means the
death OF &C. operation by few
for the oppression Of the many,
that a socialistic idea has the
same effect on the dog-in-the-
Manager style of co-operationist
that a red rag has on a bull?
The labor world. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1896-current, 1896-08-01

Labor is organized to defend
itself against such detrimental
influences as the workers single
handed are not able to resist
Any powerful influence, then, that
infringes upon our interests at
once become a proper subject for
consideration by our organiza-
tons. In these days OF economic
evolution the study most essen-
tial for good citizens is political
economy. 1t is also the one most
of us know least about. It is
this science that is dealt in most
primarily by that kind of politics
which most affects our welfare,
and which all patriots, in or out
of labor unions, should most
study. We have been taught by
the "fakirs,' however, that
whenever anybody said ''poli-
tics," we ought to have fit and
rush .panic-stricken for the door.
The trouble has been that too
many of us, in common with the
"takirs," have never seen any,
thing in politics but the question
of party success as it affects
some fellows chance to get an
office. Isn't it just a little more
than likely that there is politics
and politics? Party politics, d.
vorced from any just principle,
would demoralize a wooden In
dian. But if there has been one
dollar flched from labor through
the oppression of employers to
every twenty-five extracted
through infamous or incompe-
tent legislation, then all statistics
are the product of St. Ananias.
Some of you wise conservatives,
now, tell us how labor organiza-
tons are to "catch on" or help
stop these robberies, if we boy
colt politics?

assisted by purchasing copies of the

poses of advertising. Mr.. Ridge said
he looked upon any scheme of adver-

to lay street pavements and put in

soprano voice, and she uses it with con-

high notes of sopranos as though they
were of the middle register. Her tones
are full and rich, all through her
range.

simply superb. He plays as smoothly
as Musin, or when necessary he throws
into his work the fire of Listeman.
