These words rang out clear and dis

ly and fearless stand in defense Of
the rights of working men against
the bitter and tyrannical TRADE of the
arch labor hater, David M. Parry,
president of the association, in his an
nual report, which, to the credit Of the
convention, be it said, failed of adop-
ton. James F. Taller, a leading manu-
facturer of Cincinnati, also bitterly
opposed the program of warfare upon
organized labor, as did also C. w.
Post, of Battle Creek, Mich.
But Notwithstanding this vigorous
championship of labor, which served
to check the full malicious intent OF
Parry, resolutions were passed which
practically threw down the gauntlet
to labor unions and declared war on
men who organize to maintain their
rights, conceding them the right to Or
ganize, yet denying them the use of
their only means of making such or

It is the impression among men who
have studied labor matters that Parry,
in his hot determination to shoot his
venom into the hated laboring class,
overdid himself and killed by his I'M
bridled and impetous hatred the very
purpose Of his attack. To any one
who knows organized labor by actual
dealings in a rational, fair and business

1t was Gen. De Peyster who took
charge of sending New York's troops
to the Civil war; it was Col. De Peyster
who ran up the first Stars and Stripes
over Richmond when it fell.
1t was Gen. De Peyster who gave the
first public building to Tivoli; the son
at once responded with better one.
When the son gave hose house to the
village fire company the father re-

gave a church.; the other a home for
the poor. 1t came SO that when Col.

was not there. When the sons daugh-
