yard. The only reason for this is that the contractors have non-union men in their employ and refuse to discharge them on the demand of the union. So dangerous is it for those workmen to ap- pear anywhere outside the yard that the contractors hay" found it necessary to moor steamer at the navy yard pier to be used as boarding house by the men Now they are guarded. night and day, by detacnments of government marines
 And this in the freest country that Gods sun ever shone upon! Two dozen mechanics unable to work, sleep or eat in safety except under the protection of soldiers! Do we hear of organized labor anywhere crying out against this outrage on free American workmen? Do its lead CTS or its organs anywhere raise hnser or voice in protest? Are they discov- cred making any effort at stopping the assaults or at punishing the perpetrators? l? Where is John Mitchell, the professed friend of the American laborer? What are the Brooklyn police doing? Are they afraid to interfere against the orders of rades-unionism? Apparently they are.
 And yet this union that so assails free labor embraces only iJ per cent of the housesmiths and bridgemen in this coun- try. It seeks to hold the other s6 per cent of the men by the throats and to stop work in navy yard of the United States!

Bryan's Human Nature.

 Frank Campbell at the dinner in Man haitian, declared that the last Democratic nominee for Governor was defeated in this State because William J. Bryan re- fused to make a speech or write a let ter requesting his unconditional friends to vote for the State ticket. According to MT. Campbell, MT. Bryan said that the ticket was good enough. but the platform was bad" Whether that meant that he resented the silence of the plat form on Free Silver and Anti-lmperial- ism. or the plank fin the platform for the seizure of the anthracite coal fields, is not stated The probability is that Mir. Bryan saw that If the ticket was elected David B. Hill would be in the lead. and that if 1t was defeated that result would not assuredly follow.

The New Bedford Mercury publishes an interesting table showing the increase in the number of factory spindles for the past fifteen years. This comparison shows that the increase in the six New England States has been less than thirty per cent. while in the South the in- crease has been wonderful. For example, Alabama has nearly six times as many as in 1887; Georgia three times, North Carolina eight times. South Carolina ten times, and Texas over twenty times as many. Taking the average of these five Southern States. there are about nine times as many spindles now in operation as there were in 1887. In no one of the New England States has there been as much as 70 per cent increase, although there has been some gain in all of them, but the forward movement in the South is wonderful, and it shows that our peo- pie propose to spin their cotton at home to a greater extent than heretofore

PoIrTIcAL ABsunDIrrEs.

German. as nominee. is an absurdity, remarks The Portsmouth Star. discussing the little boom which has been put on the skids for the Maryland statesman. As to that. there have been several names mentioned which may we'll be ciassed as absurditlcs, but that is all in the game. "In the multitude of coun- sellors there Is safety" says the proverb. and in the multitude of names mentioned there may be right one. Numerous suggestions are made, and many others will follow, but none of us are bound by any of them.
 Senator Germans course on several oc- casions. and notably on the tariff, has not been such as to commend him to fa- vorable consideration in the South. and we are persuaded that the tariff is to be the dominant issue in tho next cam paign. All observant Democrats are agreed that the silver issue is a dead one, and that the question of imperialism has practically been settled by facts and events, but the tariff and the resultant trusts are more vital questions now than ever before. The Republicans seem dis posed to dodge or run away from the tariff question. and the Democrats, must take it up and make the issue on it.
 We dc not look on MT. German as the man to lead the Democrats in a tariff fight next year. The leader should be a man whose record on that question is clean and uneauivocal: There are men in the party whose Democracy is unaues- tioned. whose ability is admitted and whose tariff record is without flaw They are not men who have sprung into prom thence on some local or ephemeral issue. and whose importance is of the Jonah's guord quality. but they are men who have been tried and never found wanting, and who are willing and able to lead the par ty in the way it should go. Perhaps men of this class are not sounding their own praises or getting their friends to boom their claims, but they are men who are aye ready" when their party sees fit to call on them to lead 1t.
 One of this class must be selected and commissioned as our leader if we are to hope for success. We want no timid political hermaphrodite, but we want a man, a statesman and a Democrat. What his name may be is of little consequence Where he nails from is not vital ques- tion. but he must be true to Democracy, to the people and to the requirements of the hour. Such a man can be found if the party will turn its face away from trimmers. time-servers and fiamboyant opportunists. The man and the hour will meet in good time.

Discussing the subject of taxation. The Richmond Times Dispatch says:


 All fair-minded men are willing to bear their part of the burden, but no man is willing to bear more than his part. and every man is resentful when he finds that he is made to pay, while others. equally as able. and sometimes more able, are exempt.
 And just there is the genesis of all the dissatisfaction arising from taxation. If it could be made possible for all citizens and all property to pay a just and equal portion of the taxes. there would be no cause of complaint. That there would be complaint is beyond doubt. because Those who now escape would be caught, but their complaints would not be just. We suppose 1t is idle to expect such an utopian condition of human governments as would exist if all paid their just share of the taxes. and no one paid any more, but because this is hardly to be expected or hoped for is no reason why lawmakers might not come nearer 1t than they now do.

Ma. PARRY,s SPEECH.

The speech of Mr. Parry in New Or. leans and tis enthusiastic endorsement and reelection by the National Associa- tion of Manufacturers ought to open the eyes of labor unions all over the coun- try. The incorporate ana yituperative comments of Samuel Gompers ought to still further awaken union men to the conditions which now confront them. as well as to those which certainly lie in the future.
 Every day we are treated to reports of the intolerance of labor organizations. Men are beaten. maltreated and driven off for no other reason than that they wish to exercise the God-given right to work for living. This is becoming so common as almost to cease to excite com ment The acts of the union men in many places are brutal. intoicrant and criminal. They deny the right cf any man to work unless he wears the union collar. They ostracize. drive out and naItreat any man who refuses to place the union label on his forehead
 Cannot urion men see the inevitable
  they fail to see that they will force all the manufacturers and employers of la- bor to form a national union of their own, the result of which must be gi- gaatic struggle between capital and la Dor, with the advantages nearly all in favor of the former? It is bound to fol- low the course pursued by the labor unions and the workers must suffer
 The assertion of MT. Gompers that or- ganized labor in the United States is working peacefully by lawful methods" is untrue, and he knows it. His assertion Shat his organization desires industrial and social peace is not true. and he knows it. He knows that labor organiza- tions all over the Union are not treating non-union men fairly or honorably. They are not exactly

 but they are beating and driving out ganisations This condition cannot con- tinue. The time is coming when govern msnts, State and natioaL, will be com peiled to take hand and then woe be to those who force the issue.
 The right of man to work when and for whom he pleases must be maintained inviolate or human liberty is a delusion. If 6 man cannot work for the support of Himself and family unless he belongs to some union. he is reduced to a condition of serfdom and might as well live in Rus sia as America. No one questions the right of men to unite for the betterment of themselves. but the right to thus unite preeurposes and carries with 1t the coun- ter and equally potent right to refuse to join such an organization. Laboring men must insist on their individual lib- erty to work under such contracts "a nd for such wages as they and their employ CTS mutually agree on. When this right Is denied or prevented by law, 1t is ty- ranny, and # it is prevented by any organization, under any name. it is stiu tyranny.
 MT. Parry told some solemn, irrefutable truths, and iaboring men throughout the country should both read and heed what he said. It will be good for them.
