Labor Notes.

The S200,00O,000 Federal Steel combine
is about to absorb a number of blast fur
naces i'll the Alahoning and Shenango
valleys, in Ohio.
The machinists' strike in Denver is
still on. Coremakers went out in SYM
pathy and the molders may be dragged
into the trouble.
The clerks OF Paris who went on strike
during the holidays and smashed store
windows to emphasize their seriousness
won most of their demands.
The injunction against striking Buffalo
printers, who We're boycotting a daily
paper. was continued by higher court,
to which it was appealed. The unionists
are discouraged.
The striking brickmakers OF North
Alton, H., have been injunctiOned and
their struggle is about at an end, as the
huge combine that is gobbling up all the
large yards will, it is announced, probably
close several OF the plants.
The paper manufacturing combines
are about to form $40,0OO,000 trust. A
week or two ago a newspapermen's con
vention in Washington denounced the
paper combine and wanted lower tariff
on paper. Sure The shoe pinches, but
these little squeaks amount to nothing.
The new pottery trust is about COM
plete.. Some of the smaller concerns
have been left out in the cold, and they
will probably be squeezed out of exist
ence. TO accomplish this the trust will
reduce wages, it is rumored, and the
New Jersey pottery workers are on the
anxious seat.
No sooner had the ink become dry on
the printed reports that the steel and
wire trust had swallowed the huge Cleve-
land Rolling Mill Co., then the news
comes that the Washbum & Moen Co., OF
Worcester, Mass; the Oliver plant in
Pittsburg; the Pittsburg Wire Co, OF
Braddock. Pa, and barb wire concern
in Cincinnati, o., about the last of the
competitors in the wire and rod trade
have also been absorbed by the combine
which raises its capitalization. Thus the
monopoly is complete.

longs, and he cannot be expected to lay
down to a will l-o'-the- -wisp on a confusion
ticket, that Bryan pever recognizes except

consideration he owes to the men who
nominated him by remaining on the ticket.
William Neville was a gold standard
democrat under Mr. Cleveland, and as re-
ward for his fidelity to his principles Mr..
Cleveland gave him an appointment In the
North Platte land office. This position Mr..
Neville filled just as long as 1t tasted.
When his term ran out Mr.. Neville stepped
out of the land office into the peoples
party as district Judge, where he was lust
as good populist as he had been gold
standard democrat. Out of these two terms
of office Mr.. Neville has drawn $33 1000 and
blown 1t in for his own amusement. From
that day to this he has wanted all the
Offices he could see and he has telegraphed
for an that he could hear from. He went
to the congressional convention fusionist
After he got the nomination In his con-
vention he turned middle Of the -roader He
never lets anything pass him.
''The only thing for populist to do in
this election is to vote either the demo-
cratic or republican ticket. Surely no man
who respects himself can vote for Neville.

Judas Iscariot. Had Neville lived In Judas
Iscarot's time Judas would never have been
