VIEWS OF SOME EMPLOYERS
Aver That Closed Shops and
Union Label Are Great Evils.

Chicago, Dec. s.-''If the fight for the
closed shop is allowed to continue.
there will be scenes OF bloodshed in this
country that will surpass the days Of
the French revolution. Thesclosed shop
is un-American, unrighteous, a restrict
ion of the liberties of our people, and
death blow to the individualism that
makes for success"
The foregoing sentiment expressed by
W b. Brinton, president of the Peru
Plow Company, has been cheered by 600
members Of the Illinois Manufacturers
Association at its annual banquet.
''Our rights declared Mr., Brinton,
"are dependent on the settlement OF the
question once for. all as to whether an
employer can hire whom he pleases
without being subject to the dictation
of any organized body. The Chicago
city railway has won great victory
in establishing its right to engage its
own employees, Without this right, the
commercial supremacy Of the United
States will be at an end.
Another speaker declared that after
the adjustment of tn eclosed shop, the
removal of the union label was the
most important thing that came under
of the manufacturers as
ISOLATION.

FOREIGNERS RETURN HOME
Great Rush Back to Old Country
From New York.

New York, Dec. 9.-The rush Of for
eigners to their native land continues
unabated. Outgoing steamers, partic-
ularly those to italy, are crowded with
steerage passengers. Last weeks flg-
ures show that 1880 sailed, while only
12 400 arrived. and this weeks total un-
louhtedly will be still greater as to de-
parture. Steamship agents believe the
rush will be over with the departure OF
The last ships due on the other side by
Christmas. Foreign bankers estimate
that the returning steerage passengers
take with them an average Of 5000.

we attempted to make our way to the
spit through the outside passage, but
three-quarters of a mile of breakers
doomed up before us and to have under
taken to row through the break
would have been the height Of folly.
We We're compelled to return to the
station where We remained until about
o'clock. AT that hour our efforts to
reach the ship were successful, but Cap
tain Wicklund had arrived ahead of us
and taken off the men.
1.-THE vessel is in very bad shape and
look to see her break up. The sea
is pounding her wooden hull on the
sand and she was making much water
when we visited her. 1 am satisfied it
will be utterly impossible to save her. :"

New York, Dec. s.--The streets Of

WOODS
RAPID RISE.


The Democratic members of Con-
gress are strongly opposed to the con-
Armation Of the nomination Of Briga-
er-General Wood to be Major Gen.
eral General Wood is one Of the Pre-
sident's most intimate friends, and is
now in command of the department of
the South Philippines. All those who
are fighting the nomination will re-
ceive the active support Of some and
the tacit support Of other army OH
GERS, over whose head General Wood
has been promoted in his sensational
climb up the army ladder since the
beginning Of the Spanish-American
War, when he was merely q surgeon
in the Medical corps. The rapid rise"
OF General Wood has been entirely due
70 favoritism on the part of the ad-
ADMINISTRATION, in violation Of every pre-
cedent governing army promotions and
Of the spirit Of civil service. Woods
record as q soldier is nothing, but as
Governor General Of Cuba It il scan
dalous. That he occupies the disting-
uished position hich he does, over sec-
vice and merit, is due entirely to his
political pull" The President should
be severely rebuked for the part he
has played in the whole despicable at.

mission Of the favorable reception by
the different European nations of It's
suggestion that the leading civilized

the value of the silver coins could lie

certain that at present this forms the
most promising and practical outlook
for q common standard of value be-

lions and races, for the brown men
are not yet ready for the gold stand
