Tit KIbt-Hor Law in ha West.
Jom the Time.
It hM from tbe first cn apparent to people
lio take the trouble to think, that the en
Ictiiu'ut of au t ight -Louth' labor law would
)iot jTOve to be the ultimatum of the class of
rorknit'ii that form the leaders in all such
UVtIIH'lltrJ.
Those who ask for L'Ral protection against
the hard uecrssitieg of a toiling life, are of the
tame claw t,,('se lliat ,,snftll7 rrwft!r
tinting for high'T wbr, to w inning advance
jnent and eoiiiinanding respect bjr thorough
Application and prudent habits. Illinois, tho
Jirst iHatf, we believe, to give the law a trial, Is
fiow enjoyijiR the iht'erful exjerieni:e of tt-st-nK
its workings. On Thursday last, some
lliotisands of workmen and boys undertook to
enforce the eight-hour law in Chicago, by
takinc possession ol me maciunu-tmojo, pi"
Jug mills, lumber-yards, car-shops, is
depots, nud other poiuts where honest, t
be found at their daily
railroad
steady
' tasks).
The authorities of tho city appear to Lave
done their best to check the progress of the
disturbance; but a spirit of lawlessness, un
known in previous strikes, Las clearly been
fostered by the worse than ueedless interfe
rence of the Legislatu between tho employed
nd their employers.
The same condition of affairs, Imt accompa
nied with less of a physical force demonstra
tion, prevails in other parts of Illinois. At
Springfield the eiht-hour strikers already
number nearly a thousand. The Wabash and
Western and the Chicago and Alton Kailroad
Companies refuse to recognise the eight-hour
System, and at several points on both roads the
employes have struck.
In tit. Louis, where there Is a State law
Similar to that of Illinois, mechanics of various
crafts Lave agreed to strike not alone upon
the eight-Lour question, but on a demand for
juore wages as well ! Labor in St. Louis com
mands a higher price than in almost any other
city of the United States, in spite of the com
parative dullness and the embarrassments from
which business of almost all kinds has suf
fered. But what is that to those who stand
upon the high ground that the Legislature is
Jxmnd to secure to them short Lours of toil,
abundant employment, liberal wages, and a
generally improved state of existence ?
To attempt to show such men that ten hours'
faithful daily service will produce twenty per
cent, worth more of manufactured stuffs than
eight hours' service, would be words thrown
away. It would be vain even to try a com
jnon illustration on them. In a factory where,
under the old system, ten thousand dollars'
worth is sent out every week, the year's loss
udder the new system of reduced Lours woald
simply amount to $100,000. TLat sum, at a
reduced rate of wages, corresponding to the
Shortening of the working day, would not
involve, perhaps, a great loss to the proprie
tor. But it would represent, first, a special
loss to each individual workman, and would
1)0 so much deducted from the industrial
wealth of the country. Are these points ever
canvassed at all at the meetings of Working
inen's Unions ?
The short-hour strike Las extended even as
far to the northwest as the thriving commer
cial capital of Wisconsin. And there is every
reason to expect that the stimulus given to
Strikers of every degree by the interference of
fstato Legislatures, will cause the movement to
Spread, until hard experience brings the de
luded workmen to their senses, and to some
proper understanding of economio laws.
Prussia and Franca Preparing for War.
From the Tribune.
The Peace Conference of the representa
tives of Prussia, France, England, Austria,
Jiussia, Italy, Holland, and Belgium, which
attempt to disperse tLe war cloud im
pending over Europe by a pacifio solution of
the Luxemboiirg question, assembled in Lon
don on Tuesday. Very little is known about
the real dispositions of France and Prussia.
Count Bismark a few days ago officially de
clared that Prussia would accept the neutrali
sation of Luxembourg, and Count Moustier on
the same day assured the foreign diplomatists
in Paris that a Latds had been agreed upon
which would secure the peace of Europe. Other
reports are less assuring. Thus, Earl Derby
Stated in tho British Parliament that he
lioped that peace would be restored, Lut that
10 ins Knowieuge no uasis Had yet been deli
nitely adopted. Whether the report that
1'rauce Lad consented to the abandonment of
lier claims to Luxembourg, and that the Con
ference may oppose any enlargement of the
Trench frontier, has any official foundation is
doubtful.
In the meanwhile, Loth countries are re
ported to continue their armaments. A few
days ago, the French Mouiteur officially an
nounced that France had nut a ston to nil
military preparations; but the reports that
lxtlt powers are arming is repeated. The
charge is likely enough to be true. The
recent war between Prussia, Italy, and Aus
tria is a warning as to the indispensable neces
sity of not being too tardy in oompletin" all
tLe necessary preparations, which neither
J'rance nor Prussia can afford to overlook.
Then Loth parties were secretly arming seve
ral armies before the outbreak of hostilities
loth denied the charge; but when the opening
of the war occurred, Prussia alone was fully
prepared, and Austria had to pay dearly for
tier usual tardiness! Instead ol assuming the
offensive, and carrying the war from the start
into Saxony and Silesia, and thus closing the
important mountain passes south of Saxony
find Silesia, she Lad to await and meet the
liostile forces after they invaded Bohemia. A
mmuar mistake on tne part ot rrussia or
J'ranoe might cost the negligent power another
jjiibuiiuu campaign.
The necessity of speedy and thorough pre
yarauons wr war is all the greater, as, sooner
erca', decisive war between the two
coumnes ib inevitable. The consolidation of
u vue ueruian ciatea would build up a nation
Xnuuh Bupenor to France in population and
Tower, lhis the French Government and a
Jarge portion of the French people consider
themselves bound to prevent. The demand
jnade last year by ranee for Borne Uerman
towns was the first step towards bringing on
this issue; me attempt, to purchase Luxem
loure ifl the second. The first was a f.iin,
nnd the second seems to have failed cman'
TJut the object of this policy has not yet been
abandoned, ana new attempts to carry it
thrnnph must follow, mere can be no true
weaoe between the two Governments, but at
Jnnnt an armistice, an armed peace; and if,
. articular point of time, one people
should deem itself more prepared for war than
Its neighbor, a new pretext for war can easily
Pd found.
THE DAILY EVENING
France Las special reasons for hastening and
perfecting hor armaments, for Urns far, accord
ing to all reports, Prussia can bring into the
field a much larger force than France. Noml
Dally, the French army on the war footing
amounts to about 757,000, while that of Prus
sia and her German vassals and allies numWs
upward ot 1,200,000. If instead of the whole
army on the war footing we compare the forces
which both countries can actually bring into
the fiehl, the superiority of Prussia is no less
apparent. Awcording to trustworthy calcula
tions, Franco altogether Las 400,000 men
(i!00,'00 of wLora are reserves) ready to
march into Germany. Germany, on the other
hand, Las 550,000 men ready to march with
outjlelay into France, and in addition to these
she would Lave at least 200,000 men in garri
sons and 200,000 in depot, on whom she could
draw at any time for-reinforcements. Both
armies are Iwlieved to Lave excellent arms
but, while only one-third of the French army
is at present armed with the new Chassepot
rifles, the whole Prussian army is armed with
the needle-gun.
We still adhere to the opinion that an im
mediate war between France and Prussia is
not probable. But, on the other hand, it is
even more probable that the London Confer
ence will be entirely unable to dispose of the
Luxembourg question in a manner satisfactory
to both Prussia and France, and to remove the
cause of conflict between these two powers.
The Keconatrnctlon of Partles-IIovr la
the Mouth doing t
J Yom the Herald.
As Wendell Phillips has it, our politica
parties are in a transition state. Upon the
issues drawn from the slavery question, which
Lave divided the Republicans and the Demo
cracy since 1S54, the former have Leen com
pletely triumphant, and the latter, step by
step, into the war, through the war, and since
the war, Lave been utterly vanquished. Upon
its prestige as the Union war party and its
gTeat achievements the suppression of the
Lebellion, the abolition of slavery, and the
establishment of civil and political equality in
Southern reconstruction the Republican party
Etill holds together; and upon their unpopular
record ns the pro-slavery, anti-war faction, the
Northern remnant of tho old broken-tip na
tional Democratic party remains a powerless
minority. But something more than they have
done will be required to keep the Republicans
together. Having fulfilled its appointed work,
the party must set up a new platform of new
ideas and rlew measures, or it will go to pieces.
The Republican lenders are aware of this, and
aware, too, that with the restoration of the
outMde Relxd States the future possession of
the Government may be determined by a
Southern balance of power.
How, then, is the South going in this ap
proaching reconstruction of parties ? What
are the signs of the times ? The Southern
emancipated blacks seem to bo gravitating to
the party to which they owe their emancipa
tion. Such are the developments of Senator
Wilson's Southern missionary tour from Rich
mond down to Georgia. The great body of the
Southern whites, ou the other hand, while
coming up, as Speaker Colfax expresses it,
"with an alacrity unexpected by many, and an
acquiescence expectM by but few," are, never
theless, holding aloof from both the Northern
Republican and Democratic parties, and are
casting about for a new and independent
Southern party, on Southern ground, and as
a Southern balance of power. What, then, is
the prospect ? I'pon what new issues are we
to look for this independent Southern party?
Mr. Speaker Colfax gives it as his opinion
that Congress will abide by its terms of South
ern restoration; that "the great party which
had thus become responsible for them intend
to stand by them, faithfully and literally, if
their terms are complied with by the Rebel
States in good faith and without evasion."
Believing this, we may assume, from the work
going on, that all the ten excluded States will
be readmitted into Congress in season to give
them a deliberative voice and choice in the
next Presidential election. With their admis
sion, as the civil and political rights of the
blacks, and the safety of the national debt will
be established in the Constitution beyond the
reach of any political party hereafter, the
present dividing lines of parties at the North
and of races in the South will Le superseded
by new divisions. And in the favor which the
name of General Grant seems now to command
among Southern politicians we have a sign of
w hat is coming. It is the reconstruction of
parties on the money question, in all its
branches of internal taxes, tariff's, national
banks, and Treasury management.
Upon all these questions General Grant
is understood to be a Western man, decidedly
in opposition to the Eastern politicians of the
high taxes, high tariff protectionist school of
Thaddeus Stevens. We presume that a new
party platform, embracing the doctrines of the
lowest practicable revenue tariff, the lowest
schedule of internal taxes, a general cutting
down of expenses, the reorganization, if not
tho abolition of the national banks, whereby
the Treasury may be saved the millions which
these banks now absorb as their perquisites of
the public money; and a f uniting system to
enable the Government with light taxation to
make all needful provisions in regard to the I
national debt, would le a national ixilicv that
would commend itself to General Grant.
Here, then, we may look for the dividing
lines of our national parties in ImW, and for a
party commanding the great Northwest and
the bouth, and dividing the Central States
and even the Northeast against Uih party of
high taxes, high tariff's, protection, bank
monopolies, and heavy expenditures.
With free labor, Iorthern emigration and
enterprise, and with ample water power in
the midst of their cotton fields ami iron mines,
the Southern States will need no high tariffs
to develope a great manufacturing system. In
view oi their prostrate coiuuuon, nowever,
they will need light taxes and a gradual liqui
dation of the national debt in order to get
firmly upon their feet again in the production
of full crops of their great staples. Let the
ouuuiern Mates, thereto, lmrryupvue worn
of reconstruction, and they may, even in 10,
wield the balance of power in the Presidential
election.
American Liberty iu Tenmucl.
From the World.
In all the anomalous land of Mexico, there
is no one thing more anomalous than ia the
condition of the State of Guerrero. Within
the borders of that wealthy mountain region,
a hingle citizen, distinguished from his fellows
neither by birth nor by fortune, long years
ago succeeded in establishing a kind of auto
cracy little less absolute than that of Frauoia
or of Lopez in Paraguay. Presidents rose and
fell, shot their predecessors, and were shot in
meir turn- constitutions and plans of oousti
tutiona were mada a.i,l unmade: anarchy ran
riot from San Bias to Vera Cruz; but Alvarez
continued to U lord f Guerrero. The flight

a province of the empire; the downfall of
Maximilian will not make Guerrero 'a State
of the Republic The house of Alvarez, built
upon bayonets, rests upon bayonets; and if
Guerrero knows nothing of. liberty, at least
it may boast of a sort of ordoj and quiet
such as has not elsewhere been esta
blished upon the ruins of the tioeroyalty
of New Spain. Strange and striking as this
anomalous commonwealth must be admitted
to be, it is less strange and less striking than
the despotism which during the last few years
Las been permitted to fasten itself upon a
State, not of Mexico, but of the American
Union, and under the administration, not of a
soldier bent on keeping the peace within his
dominions, but of a fanatio resolved on
disintegrating the fundamental elements of
th society which he curses by his gontrol.
The State of Tennessee, which, seventy years
ago, a treasonable Senator vainly endeavored
to transfer to the possession of the crown of
Spain, has been virtually given over to the
tender mercies of a monarch who rules by
methods and in a temper not unworthy of a
Philip the Second or a Ferdinand the Seventh.
The truth as to the present political condition
of the State of Tennessee is of so astounding a
character, it is so ominous of evil to all free in
stitutions in America, and so shocking to
every instinct of justice and humanity, that
no extravagance of partisan zeal can excuse
the crime of those who, calling themselves tho
friends of freedom and of progress iu the
North, contribute in any way to hide this
truth from the public mind.
The question now at issue in Tennessee
between the actual master ot that State, Gov
ernor Brownlow, and the opposition which has
been organized to his rule, has nothing to do
with the claims of Congress to determine the
methods and the conditions under which the
Union shall Le restored. More than a year
ago Tennessee passed out of the control of
Congress. Parson Brownlow, who had been
elevated to the supreme authority in that
State by the Federal power, secured his elec
tion as Governor under an organization of the
State manipulated exclusively by his own
adherents, and now proposes to retain his
place by a direct and open suppression of the
popular will. While Congress has proceeded
to enfranchise the vast majority of the lately
rebellious populations of the South, no less
than five-sixths of the white population of
Tennessee are disfranchised by the will of
the Ftnall minority represented by Governor
Brownlow, who wields, for the enforcement
of this disfranchisement, a regular military
force nearly as large as was the army of the
United States before the outbreak of the civil
war, and who now seeks to coerce into his
support the negro populations of the State
upon whom he and his adherents have con
ferred the right to vote, while refusing to
them the right to hold any office whatever,
no matter Low humble or unimportant. It
would be difficult, indeed, to imagine a more
complete and ingenious scheme for defeating
all the guarantees of republican liberty, than
this which the despot of Tennessee has been
silently suffered to mature under cover of a
noisy and senseless clamor about "Rebels"
and "Loyalty," "Copperheads" and "tho
Hag." Its result, so far, Las been to enable
a man of tLe worst possible personal char
acter a brutal bigot, as destitute of political
intelligence as of Christian humanity to make
his profound contempt of the negro race sub
serve at once his lust of power and his thirst
of revenge upon his political opponents.
While the State of South Carolina was draft
ing her ordinance of secession and the
heavens were growing black with the gather
ing thunderstorm of war, this man Brownlow
openly advocated an "alliance of the South
with Louis Napoleon to whip the Northwestern
States into the Southern Confederacy, and
then to turn upon New England and extin
guish the last foothold of abolition upon the
Continent of America." He raved then for
the blood of Northern men, and imprecated
upon them "the bitter agonies of death till
they should regret that they ever felt any
concern for the African race." In the course
of events it became more profitable for him to
be. victorious with the "Northwestern States"
than to be "whipped" with the "Southern
Confederacy" but his rooted conviction re
maining unchanged, that "God intended the
Africans to serve their superiors as bond
men and bondwomen," he now proposes to
use the negroes of Tennessee, whose emanci
pation he is powerless to abrogate, as the tools
by which he may maintain his own new poli
tical position of "superiority." Happily, both
for Tennessee and for the country, there are
not wanting signs to make us hope that the
w hites of that State have too much spirit and
the negroes too much intelligence to permit
the success of this nefarious scheme with
out a combined and gallant struggle. In
the month of August next an election tor Gov
ernor w ill be held in that Sta'.e, since we take
it that the Federal Government will scarcely
suffer Gov. Brownlow to close the polls by sheer
military force. By a constitutional and con
servative convention of the people of Tennessee,
without distinction of color, jwhich assembled
at Nashville on the 17th of April last,
Emerson Etheridge was nominated for the
office of Governor. Colored men of good repute
came forward at that Convention side by side
with disfranchised white citizens of character
and influence, and united with them in de
manding oblivion of the past, peace in the
present, and justice for the tuture. One
colored man in especial, Joseph Williams, who
had served as a soldier m the Union army,
made a speech full of good sense and good
feeling, in which lie declared that he had
never received Irom the slaveholders before
the war such treatment as Le Lad met with
from Brownlow and Lis radicals, because Le
refused to accept their programme of persecu
tion for the defeated Rebel whites, combined
w ith degradation of the blacks.
1 he words which the lrwitne Las played
with as counters, the conservative Union men
of Tennessee have taken for coin. They
boldly raise the standard of "universal am
nesty and impaitial suffrage." Nothing can
be clearer or less ambiguous than their atti
tude. They go forward to the contest for the
redemption of their State, proclaiming the
following platform of principles:
