PRINCIPLES OF LABOR.

t.encral Secretary I.itchman, of the Knighta

Deakis : Vy cuiBection with the labor!
movement lor tbe past fourteen years lias
made it necessary for me to be a close student
of the causes of labor depression and of tlie
needs of those who toil.
While, as a body, a labor organization may
refrain from active artieipatiou in politics,
so ranch of what organized tabor demands
must be obtained through legislation that
the individual member of the labor org; mi-
zstion must act politically as. in bis juilg
ment wii best aid tbe aims and objects ex
pmssed in I principles of the organ iaati 00
be represents, and whose success he desires.
In the gigantic political struggle now be
gun, side issues count a nothing, excejii to
aid or hinder one of tlie principal combat
ants in the political arena. However sincere
may be the advocates of tbe measures to se
cure which these separate political organisa
tions are formed, and whatever strength in
votes may be shown at the polls, the fact re
mains that tlie candidate ol either the Re
publican or of the Democratic arty will be
the next President of the Vnited States.
Therefore, to bim who has the good of bis
country and tlie welfare of her people at
heart, the necessity exists to cbooseo which
of these two old party organisations shall be
given his aid, either directly or indirectly, by
voice or vote.
While it may be that neither party offers
all that labor organisations desire, I believe
that the Republican party, in adopting and
advocating the American system of encour
agement and protection to the labor and wa
ges of our own land, is nearer the declara
tions and desires of organized labor than its
free trade opiwneiit, the Iemocratic party.
Tliecontlict is between the American sys
tem, as represented by the Republican jsirty,
which would foster and enoouragwthc labor
of our own peple and retain for them the
market and w a;e of our own country, and
the British system, as represented by the
Democratic party, which would break down
tlie barriers of protection and throw open
our home market to tbe productions of for
eign factories and foreign lalior, thus making
idle our own toilers and reducing to a lower
level the standard of American wages.
When the Knights of Labor and kindred
organizations shall have obtained in foreign
lands the same commanding position and
influence enjoyed in the United States, the
inequality in wages will disappear, not by
leveling our wages down, but by leveling
tlieir wages up. It is far better to level up
than to level down, as the larger the income
the larger the iower to consume. I'ntil this
equalisation can be accomplished, and until
the wages of labor abroad shall equal those
at home, there must t a proper restriction
of immigration so that our land may not be
the damping ground of the panjier and de
graded labor of the balance of the world.
This restriction, supplemented by a continu
ance of thorough, systematic organization of
the labor already here, in conjunction w ith
the A inerican idea of protection to Ameri
can labor, cannot fail to secure tor our peo
ple the best result of their toil and by our
example lift the labor ot the w hole world to
a higher and better planeof existence.
Whichever party wins, something must be
done to regular more strictly thij importa
tion of foreign lador under contract and the
immigration of paupers and dependents. If
nothing should be done, then Itemocratic
success would mean not only free trade in
gissis made by pauper lalior, but the impor
tation of both the labor and the good.
While tuider free trade goods may be cheap
er to the consumer in certain lines, the labor
made idle in those lines must turn to oilier
means of employment, and thus by compe
tition conqiel a lower rate of wages to those
employed therein.
The power of a workingman to consume
depends on what be receives for bis labor.
Unemployed, his power to consume, except
on charity or theft, ceases. I prefer tliat
America should be a land of workers rather
than a land of thieves and paupers. What
is true of the individual is equally true of
the Nation. The primary elements of the
National wealth and National proserity are
production, distribution and consumption.
Whatever affects the power of labor to con
sume arlects the entire interests of the Na
tion. Whatever lowers the wage of labor
affects its power to consume. An "averaite
reduction" of 7 ier centum on lbs cost of
goods imported will not compensate Ameri
can lalior for the loss of I'V per centum in
wages in the lines affected, and of from 10 to
oil )er cent uiu in wages in the line of em
ployment by the substitution of the free
trade for tbe protective system. I hold it to
be far wiser statesmanship to build up and
retain our home market by a sstem that
protects American lalior than to command a
market in Ibreign lands secured by the
wholesale degradation and pauperization of
ourown peoile.
Every dollar's worth of labor value im
ported is by such a reduction of home la
borer's wages. 1 his axiom is not offset by
the declaration that there are more goods in
the imported dollar's worth. The positiou
of the protectionist is rather strengthened by
such a sjieciorm representation of tbe matter,
because the question is then instantly forced
upon every intelligent man. How can
American labor earn dollars if the industry
in which be is experienced is transferred to
foreign lands.
The theory of protection, advocated by the
Uepublicau party, is the same as tbe under
lying principle upon which all labor organi
zations are fountled. A friend to organired
labor that believes in organization as a
means to enhance and maintain wages can
not consistently oppose a parly that applies
to all labor Uie same principles of protection
from unfair competition that the individual
trade organizaUon gives to the single trade.
Trade organizations do aid in advancing wa
ges iu tlieir respective trades, and tbe pro
tective synteru demanded by the Republican
party will secure for all the toilers in the
land a similar fostering care.
That this is clearly understood by most of
the thinking leaders of organized labor, is
prove,! by the declaration recently made in
favor of the American system and a home
maiketby the presiding officers of the organ
izations representing the iron and the glass
industries of the Tuiteil Slates. There is no
better organization of any one trade than
the Amalgamated Association of Iron and
Soiei Workers. There is no trade more
Uiorouglily organised or belter disciplined
than thai of tlie window glais workers, nor
one in which higher wages are paid. Tlie
warning of the others representing tltose
trades against free trade are very significant
and should be heeded.
A careful consideration of all these facts
convinces sue tt,a the present is a grave
crisis iu the political affairs of the founlry,
and that have no right to remain silent
My posiUoa as General Secretary of the
knighta of Labor has given sue an intipiate
knowledge of the various phaass of tbe labor
question, and from tlie knowledge thus gain
ed, I do not hesitate to say that tha triumph
of the Democratic party, dominated by in
tolerance in the South and British free trade
sentiment in the North, would be the most
serious blow to organized labor it could pos
sibly recetre. I cannot remain inactive in
such a conflict. ' Tlierefore, to you and your
associates on tbe National Republican Com
mittee, as the representatives of tbe Repub
lican party, I offer my services in any posi
tion or capacity where they may be desira
ble, or be thought most useful, to aid in se
curing the sujoass of Harrison and Morton,
tlie representatives in this campaign of the
American idea of protection to American la

Ceneral Harrison Speaks.

questions that were engaging tlieir minds ss
citizens of this prosperous, happy and mighty

easier problem than that which confronted

over, that would be wisely solved. Notwith

Talks on the Tariff.
Below will be found an interesting and in
structive tariff talk from William Broadhead,
pnrictor of tbe extensive alpaca works,
Jamestown X. Y.:
"Such statements and reports (that I have
become a free trader in belief) are absolutely
fale. s While traveling through tlie
most of Europe, as I did one year ago, visit
ing many manufactories in most of the
principal cities, and viewing the agricultural
interests in many localities there, I was more
firmly convinced of the. wisdom of our
American system of protection. I visited the
village in which I was raised, and there I
found men lahriii' for frj-n tea to twelve
English shillings per week, which, in our
money, would amount to i2.50 and $3.
"For this same labor, I was then and am
now paying $2.25 ier day, I found men doing
there for from four to fire English shillings
ier day, which is less than one half what we
were and are now paying for precisely the
same work. Many laboring men in England
came to me w bile there and wanted I should
hire them and bring them to this country.
All the reply I could make to this was that
if they came to America I would endeavor to
give or find them employment The reply
was invariably that they were working for
from ten to twelve shillings per week, all of
which was necessarily consumed in bsre
living expenses, and tbat it was impossible
for them to accumulate enough to pay their
tninsiiortation to Ibis country.
"I came to this country a wage earner my
self. I have watched with interest its mate
rial growth and prosperiey under a high pro
tective tarifl. Under this system I have seen
it grow to be the richest and most powerful
nation on the globe. No, I am not in favor
of free trade, neither ami iu favor of tariff
for revenue only. I am a stronger protec
tionist than ever. I am entirely in symthy
with tho platform adopted by the Republi
can party at the Chicago Convention.
"I admire the ticket our chosen delegates
have placed In nomination, and shall do
what I can honorably to secure its election
in November next"
Cleveland Rejected.
Colonel Victor E. Piollett, one of the
most influential Democratic politicians ol
this state, and a prominent member of the
Patrons of Husbandry, in a speech at the
Grangers' Exhibition at Williams' Grove
publicly announced that he will not supiort
Cleveland in tlie coming campaign. Among
many reasons assigned for his iletermination
was his opposition to tbe Mills bill, which
be regarded as a delineation of tlie Presi
dent's views on tbe tariff. He also said be
was opposed to many acts w bicb have char
acterized the President's olllcial career.
Piollett was the Democratic candidate for
State Treasurer in 1S7J. when ho ran against
Rawle and was beaten about 0.000. He will
not vote for Harrison, but will use his influ
ence and also vote again: Cleveland. This
change on the part of Colonel pio'let: will
divert a large granger vote from Cleveland.
Thirty-five thousand persons attended the
Grangers' Exhibition on Thursday. Among
the speakers were Commissioner of Agricul
ture Colman, Belva Lock wood and Congress
men Hatch and Maisch.
In Spite of Corruption.
New Yoke, Aug.31. Hon Samuel Fessen
den. of Connecticut was at Uie Republican
headquarters to-day and reported a very en
couraging outlook in hia State. Ho said :
" Republicans have been engaged in organiz
ing for the campaign and with marked sue-'
cess. We are being confronted, though, by
a inrwt reckless and corrupt opimsitioo.
Democrats are not stopping at anything and
intend to try and tarry the State with boo
dle influence. Their leaders are old stagers,
perfect adepts in Uie art of diicauary, and
we will have 10 fight them at every point.
Ex-Senator Barnum will do all be can to
carry tbe State for the Democrats. In my
opinion tlie Republican tide is too strong to
be turned by the corrupt methods of oar
opponents. The people arc enlisted in tbe
cause of protection and will repudiate free
trade by a good majority next November.
It is a battle for prosperity against the
pauper wages of Europe that will be intro
duced here, and tbe sensible people of Con
necticut intend to vote for tlie welfare of
Uieir country."

Cron Bulletin.
Wasaibotox, Sept. 2. The weather crop
bulletin for the week ending September 1,
states Uiat the weather during the week has
been unusually favorable for ripening, har
vesting and threshing of wheat in Minnesota
and Dakota. It has been favorable in Uie
greater portion of the corn belt, but too
much rain occurred in the extreme portions
of Uie States bordering on the Ohio. Reports
from Kansas indicate that the com crop U
secure and past possible injury from frosts.
Light frosts occurred in the upper lake
region, probably causing some damage to tbe
cranberry crop in Wisconsin. The weather
lias been too 00 Id in Micigan to favor a rapid
growth of com, but no injury is reported to
the crop in that State, and cutting will com
mence next week.
Reports from.. Kentucky show that the
heavy corn crop in that State has been some
w hat damaged by recent rains, and that the
seasou baa been sunViently favorable to in
sure an average tobacco crop.

: A moilerate cyclone passed over the-city

tlierc was a pale from Uie southwest, nerom
panied by lousi thunder, keen flashes of

clean, as well as carrying seferal hundred
barrels of lime, which bad been scattered
abroad, into the river. Tlie effects of tbe
storm, said a leading Cabiaii "physician' -today,
will probably be excellent on the well,
tending td Isssew materially the, inlWtion,
but will be bad on the sick. Unless watched
with great care many patients may bare a
serious backset in consequence ol tbe change
in Uie weather. It is still raining. Clear,
bright moderately cool weather is hoped for
to-morrow.
a bokrt octiooi.
A special from Washington says : Surgeon
General Hamilton, of tbe Marine Hospital
service, was asked to-day if he bad any fears
of the yellow fever epidemic spreading to
any of the Northern cities. He said : "I
don't want to make any prophecies, because
it is one of those things Uiat cannot be ac
curately predicted in advance. I do not be
lieve that the fever can be stamped out in
Jacksonville until frosts come, and Uiat
may not hapiien until November, but I
think we can prevent its spread.if a rigid
quarantine is maintained. This is the only
way we can fight it If the people of Jack
sonville are allowed to go North before it is
known whether they, are affected then we
cannot tell what may be the cotisequeuixs."
"Is the North in any danger?"'
"Not with proper regulations. New York
and Philadelphia must be the most vigilant,
as the local conditions for the spread ol tbe
disease are more favorable there than in other
places. In 1H7S there was yellow fever in
New York. It broke out in the Brooklyn
navy yard, and there were 10 cases, but 1 do
not think New Y'ork needs to feel alarmed.
In 17118 Philadelphia was decimated by yel
low fever. Tlfey must be careful. Boston
is in no danger, as it will be getting cool
tliere before long. Cincinnati had it in 173;
sme of the refugees from the South who
came by steamer brought it, but Uie disease
does not spread much in hilly places. Chi
cago has never had the fever, and is also out
of danger, because tliey will soon be having
light frosts.
UAS TO BE CAKEFCL.
"I have been severely attacked because of
maintaining a rigid Florida quarantine, but
tliere is no otbrr alternative open to me.
Yellow fe ver has its origin in a germ, and
that germ can be transported in clothing and
merchandise. One of the canscs to which
tiie present epidemic in Jacksonville is at
tributed is to a clothing merchant who
moved his stock of goods iu the spring from
Tampa tu tbe former place, wben there was
yellow fever at Tampa. Tlie only safeguard
appears to dcKpulatc the city as rapidly as
possible and establish quarantine camps;
then if th? people who have been exposed
show no syun.'onis of the disease for ten
days, it is safe for them to go wherever they
please. It must be remembered that cold
weather will not kill tbe yellow fever -enn
It hibernates in clothing or other articles,
and comes into life with warm weather.
"Local quarantine regulations are often
stupid and annoying. For instance, Bruns
wick. Ga., the othei day quarantined a load
of creosoted piles from Fernanditia, Fla.
Fernaudiua is a perfectly heailhy place, but
even if it was not there would be as much
sense in quarantining creosote as carbolic
acid, one of the most valuable disinfectants
we have."

More Pension Vetoea.
W.uiifixoTux, D. C 3. Consider
able surprise was expressed in the House by
the majority yesterday when some pension
vetoes were received. The President only
returned to the city the previous night and
had not time to prepare tlie vetoes, and the
early appearance upon his return of the
veton is taken as an indication that he only
had lime to hastily nin over them after they
were receive! from the Pension Ortice.
There is now no doubt wliatever in tiie
minds of men of Congress that all or nearly
all of the vetoes that have been sent to Con
gress during the last two years were prepar
ed by clerks in the Pension Ortice.
A numlier of gentlemen who have kept a
very close watch over the matter of pension
vetoes say without any reserve whatever
that as soon as President Cleveland estab
lished bis style of dealing with pension bills
which he did not approve he turned the
whole business of preparing vetoes over to
the Commissioner of Pensions, and tbey
have been regularly prepared under that otii
cer's diiection.
A Bitter Race War.
St. Locis, September 2. Tliere is a bitter
race war going on in East Carondcict, III.,
just opposite South St. Liuis, which threat
ens to terminate seriously to-morrow, when
an election for school directors will be held.
The whites control the schools and bare ap
pointed James Stewart, a negro, to teach the
school set apart for colored children. The
negroes object to Stewart, and if they tail to
elect a majority of the board to-morrow,
threaten to eject him from the school by
force. There have been several encounters
growing out of the trouble, and one negro
was shot and seriously wounded. Last night
an attempt was made by tbe negroes to as
sassinate Judge Sherman, who had ruled
against them on several cases.

A CIEAX SWEII-.
The buildiugs on Sharp street from Nos.
105 to 117 were swept clean, oothiug being
left standing except tha fronts. Tlie rear
building of the Mateniite, on Lombard street
was torn down to prevent the fire spreading
further. The inmates of the institution were
all removed quietly. The firms of Tabb
Bros, and Dimmuck, Prior & Co., hail large
supplies of gun and revolver cartridges in
stock. About 5:30 a. M. they began to ex
plode, and for a quarter of aa hout kept up a
fusilade, the bullets going through the win
dows on all tides, but fortunately nobody
wassbot, with tlie excc(itiou of one man
who was slightly wounded near tlie left eye.
Shortly before 6 o'clock the members of
No. 7 Engine Company anil No. 2 truck en
tered Tabb Eros.' building, intending to cut
holes through to 100. Those iu the street
saw that the side wall of 100 was beginning
to sway, and called to the men to come out.
All of them were hastening out when the
treachenius wall fell over, and, crashing
through the floors ot No. 107, buried the un
fortunate fireman under its great weight
Then all efforts were concentrated upon the
pile of ruins under which nine human be
ings were writhing In torture. The groans
of tbe men could be beard from within Ibis
living, volcanic tomb, for it had now taken
fire and was belching forth jets of name.
Haifa dozen strong streams were turned 011
the pile aud the llauies withiu were in a
short time subdued. In a few minutes John
Kelly was rescued. His left eye was burned
out of its socket and his head badly mashed,
but tbe surgeons say he will recover. Then
A. L. Elk was dragged from the niins. His
right arm was broken and his side badly in
jured. The others, however, were beyond
hope, ami their dead bodies were taken out
one by one, all. mangled, torn and burned.
Uie last one being recovered late to-night.
All of the seven dead firemen leave families
to mourn their untimely end, except Harry
Walker, who was a single man.
Hot Springs Storm Swept.
Hot Sraivis, Aut, August 31. To-day is
an epoch in the history of Hot Springs. The
city is gutted. Ruin and wreck meet the vis
iou everywhere, aud nothing like it has ever
been known to compare with the results of
last night's storm. It was s water spout and
the valley was swept with a mighty tidal
wave. Thwloss to pivqicrty is fearful, while
the sacrifices to human life is, under the cir
cumstances, appalling. Swift and terrible
was the visitation. Without warning the
people were awakened from slumber to find
themselves threatened with destruction by
the mod waves. Strange to relate few people
were conscious of tbe horrible disaster till
they awoke to look upon the desolate scene
this morning and drag the drowned from
the drifts.
The storm struck the town about 11 o'clock
last night from a northwestwardly direction.
It was accompanied by a stiff, cool wind
though not strong enough to produce dam
age. Rain fell in torrents from eleven to one
o'clock without intermission or cessation.
Indeed, those who were up and witnessed
the awful scene describe it as one never be
fore seen by them. The vivid Hashes of
lightning displayed as it were great sheets
of falling water. At the dose of the storm
a great and ominous sound, mingled with
shouts and cries of distress, went up from
the valley and such citizens as were in the
vicinity of the creek went forth to render as
sistance. The flood on Central avenue, the principal
thoroughfare, assumed an angry river, whose
rushing tides swept everything movable on
its bosom. For over half an hour the avenne
was transformed into a torrent five yards
wide. Barrels, boxes and parts of houses
came down on the tide, and were left strewn
on the sidewalks. Several large hotels were
flooded to the depth of four feet with murky
waters. Many buildings were totally wreck
ed. Up to this hour six persons are known to
be missing, five of whom have becu found
dead in wrecked buildings. The damage to
property is estimated at $10,9U.
LiTTLi Rock, September 1. Geo. Brown.
of Lancaster, Pa, and C. H. Coolidge, of
Cincinnati, visitors, have just arrived here
from Hot Springs, and say that the desola
tion is beyond description. They report thir
teen people drowned. Nine bodies have
been recovered, aud inquests have been held
on four. The lost are mostly colored people.
Owing to desp-iir and conruiion they could
not learn the names of the drowned or the
amount of damage done. Houses all along
the central streets are badly undermined,
aud those damaged will have to be rebuilt.
Epidemic In an Clio Town.
Caldwcll, Aug. 30. A month ago a
mysterious disease apiicarcd. It bad some
cliaracteristics of typhoid level and some of
malaria, and whole families were attacked.
The malady was lingering, and victims rare
ly died uuiler six or seven days. In the
course of a fortnight nearly eery family in
town was affected and the death rale became
alarming. Many families left town. Busi
ness is a! most paralyzed and funeral proces
sions are almost constantly in the streets.
The physicians are nearly all worn out and
medicine seems to do ao good. The disease
does not appear to be infectious except to
residents here, tor ontsiden are not affected.
This leads to the belief that the disease germs
are in the water.
The town is very old and has no system of
drainage. The number of deaths is now 25.
embracing all sexes and all ages. The popu
lation of the place is I,W. Country people
are afraid to come to town to trade, aud it is
feared that a number of merchants will be
compelled to assign.
An Awful Tragedy.
' Aoexda, Kax., Sejit. 2. A horrible affair
is reported from the neighborhood of Guide
Rock, a small town just over tlie Nebraska
line. John Baker, while feeding a threshing
machine on the farm of a man named Weeks
was acciilcntallly cut on the band with the
band cutter by a boy. In a rage he grasped
the boy and deliberately led bim into the
machine, feet first. The boy's screams
attracted the attention of the other bands,
but before tbey could interfere, the boy's
body bad half disappeared In the machine.
The enraged men seized Baker and bung
himto tbe straw stark.
Drowned Herself and Two Children.
Ci!cnriTi, Sep. 2 A most distressing
tragedy was discovered last night at Delhi.
It was discovered by Mr. 8teirle of Delhi,
that bis wile and two children who bad been
missing since Tuesday last, had been drown
ed, and tbe shock was more intense because
it is believed that the moUier in a fit of in
sanity bad dragged tlie children into Uie
river with her. The children were a girl
aud a boy 0 and 10 years old. Mrs. Steirle
had been dejected but no one feared suicide.
