Equinox strike us with the same
degree of severity, as the unpre-

up cotton, instead of pick out. In

none picked.

McKfne y's Campaign Letter
Philadelphia Times.


McKfn ey's Campaign Letter
Philadelphia Times.
Mr.. McKinley's long delayed
letter of acceptance, of the NOM
ination made three months ago,
has acquired in the interval the
proportions of a Presidents an
nual message, with much OF its
comprehensive dullness. It con-
eludes both an elaboration of the
Republican platform and a reply
to portions of the Democratic
platform. It is partly congratu-
latory and partly apologistic. 1t
would probably have been short
er had it been completed sooner,
and if shorter; it might have been
more effective.
% The letter is intended, evident
", to furnish a sort of campaign
text book to which Republican
advocate s a refer for informa-
ton and explanation. Those who
are already OF the Presidents
party will pronounce it a very
strong document, those who look
on the course of the administra>
ton with disfavor or distrust
will not find many of their fun
damental objections answered in
the Presidents elaborate plea.
He begins with ssthe issue Of
the last national election" quot
ing the declaration upon silver
of the "three parties that are
again united on one candidate"
and the reairmation of the Chi
cago platform at Kansas City;
and calling on ssthe sound money"
forces, to JON in again condemn
ing these doctrines. He says that
whatever issue is paramount, this
one at least is Immediate.
From this appeal Mr.. McKin-
ley passes rather abruptly to a
detailed report upon the state of
the country, loaded with statistics
that are designed to show the
prosperity introduced by the Res
publican administration and to
be secured and continued by the
writers reelection.
Various incidental topics are
touched upon, in the manner OF
an annual message positively

cautiously where the subject is
difficult. The gracefulness with
which he skates over the thir

Union Man Talks ON Its Great
Advantages.
1T would be safe to assume that
any expense the city would incur in
establishing free employment bureau,
would be more than repaid by re-
ductton in pauperism and crime"
A man prominent in union label cir
cles made that statement the other day
when in discussing the proposed ordi-
nance establishing bureau of free la
Dor in Duluth, similar to the bureau
now in operation in Superior. Continu-
ing. he said:
interest should prompt society to fur
nish every relief possible. There Is a
certain humiliation in seeking employ
lnent from door to door and the rebuffs
which workingmen are forced to re-
ceive lessen the mans self-respect and
gals his manhood. Disappointment
and lack Of sympathy is liable TO sour
the most honest nature, and weighed
down by d sense Of society's indiffer-
ence to his welfare, the common work
ingman Is liable to become morbid and
view life through a distorted vision
Few people. know the expense to
which the laboring men and women are
often subjected in seeking employment
If we had the free bureau, working
men could obtain employment for al
most nothing. Then | think that all
will agree that a community is far bet
ter off when all it's people are wage
tarners. for it at least keeps families
from calling on the poor fund. The
time lost to the average wage-earne,
between the loss of Il job and the find

Mr.. Harry Nelson, agent for the

port, left Wednesday for Boston to at

Monday next. Mr.. Nelson will stop
two days in Chicago to file his annual
report at the office of the International
Secretary. He says that during the sum
mer $50 members were enrolled at this
port. Four thousand were enrolled on
the great lakes during the year. This
beats all previous records. The
Seamen's union has suffered consider
able in the past on account of misman-

Union Hut Does Not Want to Pay
One Cent Tribute to Maintain 1t.
There is lively squirt in the Build:
| ing Trades this week. The union car:
penters, fathers, plumbers, etc., refuse.
to work with non-union painters. AS a..
result work in the building trades in
many cases Is at a stand-still. On one
or two jobs few non union carpenters
were engaged, but no non-union plumb
ers, for none can be secured. 49,.

move to try q walkout at this time of
the year. There is not enough build
ing going on. Why didn't they wait
until spring? Yes, we are getting the
same money as union men, eight hours
work at 80 cents an hour. The truth
of the matter is that the two boss
/ painters who get most of the work of
the city are conducting what is known
. as 'scab' shops. There are about Is
painters in the city who do not belong
to the union. Most of them would be:

building going on now, while the truth
is there is more buildings under con-
struction now than has been for some
) time, but that Is not all. He says that
| they are getting union wages and I'M
ion hours, yet he does not want to con-
tribute one cent in dues to maintain
| those conditions.
| Who secured thirty cents on hour for
painters in this city? Who brought
about the eight-hour day for painters?
