AGAINST EIGHT-H0UR Law.


The National Association of Manufactur-
ers. of which ID. M. Parry is president. is
sending out from New York circulars TO
manufacturers urging them to unite In de-
feating the e%ight-hour law now pending
before Congress. The letter is as follows:
Dear Sirs-The eight-hour bill. so-called,
has now dragged along through several
years. advocated persistently and intelli-
gently by the labor leaders. opposed In a
vigorous but somewhat desultory and thus
far unsuccessful way by the manufactur-
ers.
its Indianapolis convention last April
adopted a resolution protesting against this
Now, must not the members of our as
ISOLATION and the manufacturers of the
country generally stand together TO defeat
this bill beyond resurrection? IL can be
done. Is 1t not time to do 1t now? The
national association. through its executive
committee and Its other officers. Will take
the lead. night or day. in this battle.
win you help US by answering at length
the inclosed questions! We are convinced
tees of Congress and the senators and rep
resentatives themselves with reasons for
killing this bill is to give them as many
improbable facts as possible. Please make
them such as you would gladly stand for
publicly-but do not hesitate TO add for the
guidance of your officers any confidential
facts and opinions that would be of value
in aiding US to wage this hight success
fully.
BE good enough 10 consider this appeal
as personal to your industry and your
selves. / beg you to believe that IL IL does
not now seem to concern you directly. IL 10
certain to do so a little later on"
Mr.. Parry says the purpose OF the night
is not against organized labor. but rather
to prevent restrictions on American manu-
facturers which the bill will bring about.
The effort for foreign trade. he says. will
surely be impeded by the measure pro-
posed. The result Of such legislation In now
being made evident In Great Britain, which
is losing her foreign trade.
AS against this effort the National Build
ing Trades Council In sending out a cir
cular supporting the measure. In this cir
cular IL Is said:
ID the w~orkingmen Of the United
States know that the eisht-hour day IL
in peril? Do they know that a systematic
plan is now under way 10 put a stop TO
any further consideration OF eight-hour
legisla ton I'm the halls OF Congress. and
thereby deal a death blow to che move
ment for eight hours In every class OF In
dustry?
That II is high time for the wage earners
of this Nation to awake to the fact that
the eight-hour day is In danger and take
immediate steps to thwart the attempt
to force longer hours in nearly all indus
tries In evident from a circular recently
issued by the National Association OF
Manufacturers, of which David ". Parry.
of Indianapolis. Is president; Hamilton
shall Cushing. New York city, secretary"
The Trades Council explains that a 81.
Louis manufacturer. friendly to trades
unions, furnished the copy OF the circular.

Indiana Notes.

RICHMOND.-The Richmond Natural
Gas Company has been granted a right OF
way in Brown township, Hancock county,
which gives an outlet from a good gas
field. The company is making preparations
to meet the demands of the winter, If pos
sible. even should the injunction against
the pumping station hold good. -" The
suit of Mary E. Mills VS.. DR.. William B.
Graham to recover damages for alleged
malpractice in the treatment of her child
for diphtheria, came TO an end Tuesday in
a verdict for the defendan The complaint
was based chiefly on the alleged failure of
the defendant to use anti-toxin in his
treatment.
GREENTOWN.-The schools here have
ever had. The high school is now a COM
missioned high school. The
Seventy-fifth and observation-disclosures
Indiana volunteer regiments held a very
successful reunion here last week. The re-
union next year will be held at Jonesboro.
DIR. E. NJ. Whitsey is the new president of
the association, and Levi Smith secretary.
The temperance people of this place
are strenuously opposing the granting of
licenses to two saloons. The commissioners
granted the licenses and the cases were ap-
pealed to the Circuit Court.
MARION.-Marion and Grant county
Friends have returned from Richmond and
were greatly enthused over the securing
for Marion the next Yearly Meeting. The
changing of the meeting place after 1T has
been in Richmond eighty-two years is re-
garded by the local members as an indica-
ton of the strength of the church in this
section of the State. The fact that 1t will
require a larger meeting house to care for
the Yearly Meeting than this city affords
has revived the proposition of building a
tabernacle in which to hold large meetings.
ELWOOD.-John @. A. Redd. aged seven
ty-three, an old soldier, is a prisoner in the
city Jail and an inquest will be held at an
early date to determine his mental condi-
ton. A year ago his house. where he had
lived a hermit for many years, was de-
stroyed by fire and with it a fine collection
of relics which he had accumulated was
lost. This preyed on his mind. An effort
will be made to secure his admission to
some of the state or military hospitals.
Observation-Disclosures afternoon Pa
trolman Fuchs arrested Jep Woods, a War
rick county farmer, for being disorderly in
the Evansville e Terre Haute depot.
Woods drew a knife and tried to kill the
