The Blacklist,

The BLACKLIST.
The blacklist as now employed in
some places enables the employer to
place the employe under practical
duress, for the skilled laborer loses his
independence when the employers can
not only discharge him, but prevent his
securing any similar employment.
The blacklist enables employers to Sc
cure, by mutual agreement, that con-
troll over the wage earners which
private monopoly exercises without
contract.

also follows that that interest is most

SHE SAW 1T FIRST.
Philadelphia Tenmster Who
Proved Himself n Chesterfield
In Manners.

He was only teamster, but his
soul was filed with chivalry which
we are led to believe typified the
knights of old. And in coat of
mail he might have passed muster.
for he was a big, brawny chap, with
no little physical beauty of the rough
sort, says the Philadelphia Record.
As he guided his heavy dray down
Market street hill the other morning
one of the horses slipped in the icy
street, and in his effort to recover
his equilibrium lost shoe. Putting
the brake down hard, the driver
jumped from his seat to recover the
shoe.
But. quick as he was another claim
ant was ahead of him. She was a
fashiopably nttired young girl OF
about 1s, with a roguish, laughing
face. Just ns the tenmster leaned over
to pick up the horseshoe a dainty
gloved little hand reached in ahead
Of his big red one and clutched the
coveted prize.
81 got it first" she cried, laughing
gleefully. LET me keep it, do. please
It's such good luck If you see it come
off Yourself"
The big teamster removed his fur
cap and bowed with Chesterfieldan
grace Certainly. miss" he replied
gallantly, ''if can assist you to good
luck ! shall be most happy"
Then, quite unabashed he climbed
up to his seat, and the girl walked up
the hill with the horseshoe.
