"A correspondent at Stockton write

"A correspondent at Stockton writes;
The last Legislature having passed II
bill requiring all persons, firms and
corporations employing labor, with
and railroads, to pay their men at least
every two weeks in cash, tho ques-
ton now arises who will enforce the
law. Not the employee, for i'll New
York State, under similar law, if an
employee makes complaint to the State
Board of Labor, his letter is forward
ed to his employer and the man is often
discharged for insisting on his legal
rights being given him.
Twenty years ago there We're
eighty five men employed in Stockton;
they were receiving good wages, were
promptly paid, and the town was n
busy little place. every house was fill
ed with an American workman, who
kept his family MS an American should.
During the summer of 1893, there
were Mt one time 800 workingmen III
Stockton and yet there were plenty
of empty houses TO be had ut much
lower rent than twenty-five years be-
fore, the reason for this being the
difference in the class of labor en-
ployed in the quarries. To-day it is
principally the Italian, as rule, dirty,
unedueated and capable of being
herded together in hovel like sheep
twenty or more in barn, ut II dollar
per month II head, pays his employer
n good profit on the building, and thus
enables them to hold their job.
II is shame that an American work
man should be compelled to compete
with such rs this, and unless greater
restrictions are placed on emigration,
the day is not far distant when every
American who has not trade or n
profession, will have TO live in hovol
like his Italian competitor. Tho Lodge
emigration bill was measure that
should have become II law Why it
did not is because the American work
man, the man most interested, did not
demand it, and rested secure in tho
thought that Congress would surely
pass it. SO it was with the 9 per cent.
interest bill in the last legislature
bank, trust companies, and persons
having money to loan, flooded the leg
islature with letters and kilograms in
opposition to the measure, while far
mers and business men, the borrowers
of money, said not word in favor of
the bill and let it go by default

GREATER YARDS.
Iitue ,.it of Interesting store News.

Little i;it of Interesting store News.
The store OF Mrs NJ. NJ. Yard, OF
Trenton. Nj. , has been one of tho land
marks of that historic old city for more
than thirty years. II was managed by
her son. Mr. Fred b. Yard, for many
years prior to Mrs. Yard demise, and
in that time he gained that thorough
knowledge of the details of the bust
ness so necessary to the carrying out
of the policy inaugurated and faith
fully pursued by its founder.
From the very beginning the one
idea Of handling none but strictly
reliable merchandise nj uniformly fair
prices has been rigidly adhered to,
with the result that the business has
kept pace with the growth of the city
and the demands Of its citizens.
Its special mission was the gathering
together and selling of ladies' furnish
ings of the better varieties. Gloves,
Muslin Underwear, Laces, Embroid-
cries, Hosiery, Dress Trimmings of
every conceivable aort, were made
leaders, and so satisfactory has been
the service at all times that the phrase
"Phey DO Sell Nice Things Mt Yards, "
has become familiar one among the
ladies of Trenton and vicinity.
With such service, coupled with a
most liberal policy which insists that
every patron shall be given full salts
faction in all particulars. no wonder
the business outgrew its quarters.
The store next to the old stand, has
been pressed into the Yard service,
the combination forming one. of the
most commodious in Trenton.
1t is fitted up with retiring, reading
and writing rooms, and out-of-town
residents are very cordially invited to
take advantage of its accommodations,
and to make Yards a place wherein to
meet friends, leave bundles, or use in
any manner.
We suggest that our readers visit
Yards when next i'll Trenton. They
will not he importuned. The policy
of Yards forbids it. They're free to
go and come, whether they buy or not.

The Wage Worker admits the truth
of the statements in our letters. II
says, in its issue of April god, that
somebody is giving us pointers. If
pointers can be given, il necessarily
follows that facts must exist. The ae-
cusations OF the Wage Worker, how
ever, do some one an injustice. All
our pointers are cleaned from Demo
cratic sources.
The Wage Worker, a few weeks
since, credited County Clerk Closson
with having said that candidates and
horses did not run well in bar-rooms. "
Be that as il may, there is in the bar
rooms m atmosphere, or something OF
the sort, that makes mems tongues
run. Being blessed with keen hear
ing and good eyesight, we simply use
those senses to the best possible adj
vantage. In the sense of having point
ers given to us, with the intent of their
being such, we have never received
any. We are virtually indebted to
Old King Bacchus for our pointers.
That he is truthful old soul, none
may doubt after reading the admis-
sions of the Wage Worker in its last
weeks issue.
