1t seems to the writer that it is an
excess@of medesty verging on timidity
that defers many wOrkingmen from
taking pen.i hand and writing their
views on subjects to which they have
given time and thought, and these
views would be of great Importance to
their fellow. " orkers if they. only had
the boldness to write and stand the
consequences, The cry of the editor is
always Send us some news so as to
make our journal interesting to it's
membership The managers of these
papers may try their utmost, but they
find it difficult task to even get the
membership TO tell the, ordinary hap
penings of the trade, and the natural
result is that the union advocates have
to fill space;in with the best matter to
hand, although it may have no special
interestst to the several crafts and may
be ofadOubtful benefit to the workers
in general The usual remark made by
the nerYeless member is: "There is
nothing interesting to read in our
paper. 1f the trade, unionists would
only make sa break into print, tell the
story as best they can, they would be
more than surprised with the results

junction, fewer Sheriffs posses and
clubbings by policemen. When an es-
adjustment is closed on account of a
disagreement between employer and
ehploye, WOrkingmen should remain
away and allow it to remain closed un-
til the trouble is adjusted. Working
men are not always right in what they
attempt, but organization of their in
telligence. Organized labor is the pro-
moter Of public peace and happiness,
for it is a fact that where labor Or
ganizations are strongest there strikes
are most infrequent. With the great
aggregation of capital on the one hand,
what hope would there be for the peo-
pie were it not for the balancing in
fluence of the labor organizations?
What hope is there for the welfare of
the republic in the action of the Ast-
ors, the Vanderbilts and the Rookie
fellers? If they would pay thousands
to marry their daughter daughter to
title, what would they give to possess
a title themselves? 1t has and always
will be the mission of the poor to pre-
serve the republican form of govern
ment.
THE labor question is one Of the
most important confronting the world.
1t is being discussed by the pulpit, the
press. and the diplomat. Political par
ties vie with each other In adopting la
Dor planks. whether they expect to car
ry them or not. Organization is seen
on every hand. There are boards of
trade. exchanges. the builders ex-
change, bankers associations and
railroad associations. Even the doct-
ors have their associations. and feel
mighty badly toward a member who
does not live up to the tenets of the
society. The lawyers have union, al
though they call it a bar.
The judge of the court is the walk
ing delegate Of the union, and he is
mighty quick to call for the working
card of man who attempts to practice
law in his court without diploma
as they call their working card. I'm
ions are found only in civilized coun-
tries. They do not have them in China
or India. The strike is the weapon Of
defense of the labor organiza tion
While we do not encourage strikes,
Workingmen would be foolish to give
up that strong weapon. If the labor
unions should declare against strikes
the capitalists would soon be doing all
the striking for us. Labor wants more.
1t is entitled to more, and will get more
of the products of their toll. It is a
crime against the citizenship of the fu-
ture to make men and women work
more than eight hours per day. We
want the children taken out of the
workshops and factories and educated.
1t may be new to some of you, but it
is fact that during the last congress
bill was. passed annexing the Sand
Axich@ IslaI as ef sEIawaii.t
Slavery existed In those islands, and it
was by the untiring efforts of the COM
mitteee on legis!a tion of the American
Federation of Labor that a resolution
was finally passed abolishing slavery
IN the islands. 1t is the prayer of the
labor unionist that the flag shall never
KAYE over any but a cree people. We
ask no favors. simply our rights, and it
is our rights that we are going to
have. e.'-Samuel Gonpers.

a. lne SHOrter day would always be in
better condition, both mentally and
physically, and would produce propor-
tionately better results than those of
the longer hours of toll.
AS to the fiuctuation in pay, that will
always be regulated by the supply and
demand, not only in the wages but in
the work to be contracted for and per-
formed. The workingman is one of the
chlet concomitants to the performance
OF the contract He is just as import
ant consideration in the performance
as the raw material. In fact, he is
part of the raw material, and without
the application of labor necessary, both
classes would remain idle and useless,
Any one investing money capital in
material of any class has no power to
nix the price thereon, but has to con-
form to market value regulation If
that Is correct, by what authority of
right does he assume the power to fix
his own price upon class of material
over which he has no more control
than the first mentioned, and dictate to
labor what it is worth and how much
only he will pay?
If organized labor is true to itself,
the time will come when it will hold
itself as any other commodity, will be
able to establish itself on a firm basis
of market value, and will be no longer
the tool and plaything Of schemers
and spectators. The time will come
when even those of the "hewers of
wood and drawers Of water" by organi-
zation, education and enlightment, will
progress in Advancement till "blood
and Judgment will be so we'll COM
mingled they will be no longer pipes
for fortunes fingers to sound what
stop she please"
Never cease in advocacy of a reduc-
ton of the hours per day for all classes
of labor. If you have them yourself,
do not assume the garb of money capi-
tai, in independence of your fellows in
other callings. Use the same energetic
effort to procure it for others that you
have exercised for yourselves. Show
your appreciation of your gains by ex-
tending its blessings to all fields of la
Dor. Generally adopted, thousands of
the idle, helpless poor, willing to work,
would be given employment; the mer-
chants and groceryn1en would be bene-
fitted to the extent of increase in busi-
ness; the poor and needy, instead of
being objects of charity and a burden
upon the well-to-do, would be able to
help themselves; a check would be
given to the threatening degradation
and desolation of the masses; new
hopes and ASPIRATIONS might be kind
led in the breasts of many approaching
despair. and new enlightment lead the
way to a brighter and higher civiliza-
ton. ..r

Activity is the law of all intellectual
and animal life. The more YOU live in
conformity to that Jaw, the happier
you will be. An active life, like the
purling rivulet, is an unfailing source
Of gladness,. health and oontentment.
while an indolent life, life the stagnant
pool, breeds discomfort, disease and
death. No man enjoys with keener
relish the nights repose and the Sun
day and holiday rest than the son of
toll.
A life of patient industry is sure to
be blessed with competence, if it is
not crowned with abundant renumera-
ton. The great majority of our lead
ing men of wealth are indebted for
their fortunes to their own untiring in
dustry. Take an active, personl, con-
scientious in the business Of your en-
ployer. Be as much concerned about
it's prosperity as If it were your own.
Foster habits of economy and self
denial. No matter how modest your
income may be, always live under it.
You will thus protect your liberty and
business integrity, and guard yourself
against the slavery and humiliation of
debt, which is too often the precursor
and the incentive to commercial dis
honor.
While honestly striving to better
your condition, be content with your
station in life, and do not yield to an
inordinate desire Of abandoning your
present occupation for what is popu-
larly regarded as a more attractive
avocation. Remember that while the
learned professions are overcrowded
there is always a demand for skilled
and unskilled labor, and that it is far
better to succeed in mechanical or man
ual work than to fail in professional
life.

mind.
Moderate means with a contented
spirit are preferable to millions with

Sobriety will be an angel of tranquil

While this virtue should be cultivated
by all men, it ought to be especially
cherished by the laboring class, who

from which it appears that the pro-
gress of improvements of the city dates
from the year 1854, when a number Of
philanthropic citizens formed an asso-
citation for improving the condition OF
the slum population. The was practi-
cally the beginning of a reform move

act of parliament empowering the city
corporation to carry out the work
which philanthropy and private offorti

that at this time the condition OF the.
poor in this city was worse than In any
other city in Great Britain. On July

of the passage of the British parlia-8
