Like a bar of beaten cold
I gleam In the summer sun;
I am little, I knew,
But think I can throw
A etltcb, that will hold a ton.
I send out no challenge bold,
I blow no vauntlns horn,
lint foolish Is he,'
Who o'erlookcth me,
For ho'l! wish he'd nover been born,
Like the flower of the field am I
No rivals such beauties display, -The
ladles I charm.
And with my "High Arm"
AH would-be rivals I slay.
I'm loved by the fair ones that buy me,
I'm modest, and quiet, and meek,
But with half-time at play
And half-time at work
I clear thirty $ a neck.
Though you search the wide world over
From East to IKest, I ween
Nothing you'll find,
To equal in kind,
The New Dayls Sewing Machine.

strikes that have taken place In this coun
try slnco tho beginning of thoyear 1887hayc
numbered about 1000, and of the 400,000
men engaged In them from 25,000 to 50,000
men aro still out."
For t he week ending April 7, thero
were shipped over tho L. & S. division of
tho O. R. R., of N. J 110,077 tons of coal,
a total for the year to thatdato of 1,230,121
tons, an Increase of 57,771 as compared
with same date last year.
They are talking of another strike in
the Hazleton region. This Is the scheme
which is now suggested by labor unions:
That tho men be ordered out of one colliery
at a time; that the strikers as many of
them as possible get work elsewhere, and
those who can't do so will then ho support
ed by their brethren who haye secured
steady employment. In this way It is hoped
to stand out the individual companies.
Labor Commissioner Peck, of Now
York In his fifth annual roport, delivered
last week said: "Strikes havo helped to
ratso wages, to shorten hours, to Improve
the condition, not only of tho particular
workmen who hayo risen up In protest,
but also of tho masses." lie estimates
tho loss In wanes to have been $2,013,229,
and that $217,000 was paid out of relief
funds. The loss to the employers he esti
mates to have been $1,124,214. To offset
these losses he says tho wagc-carners gain
ed advances which gavo them $044,032
moro during the year than before where
the strikes wore successtul, and tuny lost
$142,1583 where they failed.

What Henry Oeorge Proposes.
He does not propose that the State shall
attempt to control production, conduct dis
tribution, or In anywlso Interfere with the
freedom of the Individual to use bis labor
or capital In any way that may seem proper
him and that will not Interfere with the
equal rights of others. Nor does he pro
pose that the State shall take possession of
land, and either work It or rent it out.
If hat ho proposes Is not the disturbing ol
any man In his holding or title, but, by
abolishing nil taxes on industry or its pro
ducllons, to Icaye to the producer the full
fruits of bis exertion. Wouker.
