"The aonnideration of these ques

becanxe it will be fonnd impossible to
settle them before July, 1888, by leg
ialatien, na nothing will be done about
them, Knbetantlally, this v. Inter, and
the Oongri as that nireis in Deoemher,
18d7, will mil have finished disoimn ng
them before Jane, 1888, when the
Fr.sidcuihl Uonventions are hnld.
Yua will see, therefore, that the ques
tion of the piot ctton of American
labor will bn very active one in the
next ftimpalgn, and the organisation
of labor, which is largoly among
