LAbOf VO. CAPITAL.
A Laboring Man's Argument on the
Question.
The re wa a good attendance at the incit
ing of carpenters and joiners in Science
Hall hiit night. A. M. Beits President of
the Brotherhood in thi city, introduced V. J.
McGare, of Cincinnati, a prominent mem
ber of the order, who fid the subject unde r
consideration wa The Duty, Aim and
Work of Organised Labor." There i a sen
timent growing in favor of the organization
of all trades which is not confined to any one
locality, but i universal. What do thi
mean? It mean that the maea are begin
ning to realize the change that have been
taking place iu thi country during the past
twenty-five years, tending toward the en
slavement of the people. On one side we
find a few in control of the currency, labor
and i,litic of the country and on the other
ide destitution, poverty and hard work.
Why i. thi bo, when to-day we hold the i
litical de tiny of the country in oar hand?
There are 0O,UU) children working in shop
iu New England for $1.50 and ir week
and the men are going idle, because of the
child labor and cheap labor imported from
other countries it ha driven the best ele
ment of American labor from the shops.
Now why i there over-production, gimp
ly because of our inability to buy
back that we produce. A piece of
work that required the labor , of
ten or twenty men a few years ago
can be done now with one man aided by the
machinery, but they claim that shortening
the hours of labor will hurt the industries of
the country. It is. the opposite in France and
England, a. wage have increased by shorten
ing the hour. We do not claim that ma
chinery is a curse, as it is a blessing when
handled properly, but it is by capitalistic
ingenuity that it is worked against ns.
The system of selling the labor of convicts
at fifty and sixty cents per day to contractors
is a curse to tho manufacturer and working
men. The interest of capitalists is to get
all they can for the least amount of money,
and the interest of the workers is to get all
they can for the least amount of work. The
only argument of the capitalist is the bayo
net or the policeman, and no great question
was ever settled in that way. They bring on
dull times every ten years and throw men
out of work; then they apply the Tramp Act
to keep them from finding work. Capital is
organized and why should labor not be
organized? The capitalists have control of
our Congress and the press of the
country, and when tho workingmen
dare to speak they are told that they must
not think for themselves but leave it to
others to do for them. You must organize
and make an injuiry to one the concern of
all, and remember that it is as important to
organize after an election as before it, as a
President or Governor cannot stop a corpor
ation from cutting wages, you must do it
yourself. It is not by shorter hours yon will
injure your wages, as the surplus labor is tho
power nsed by capitalists to reduce your
wages and not less hours. After a few re
marks on the importation of cheap labor
from abroad and the working of the Brother
hood, the speaker closed. He was followed
by L. V. Moulton and J. H. Tibbets, who
made brief speeches, and the meeting ad
journed. 9
A New Benevolent Society.
Grand Rapids, in proportion to its popula
tion, has a goodly number of benevolent
societies, all of which have accomplished
any amount of good pin the distribution of
charity. There will be plenty to keep them
ail active this winter.
A new society ha3 just been organized
known as tho East Street Union Benevolent
Society of Grand Rapids and is already
engaged in active work in the eastern part of
the city and tho adjoining suburbs. It will
meet weekly, and the lady members will be
glad to receive anything that can be utilized,
in providing for the needy, whom they pro
pose to assist. Any one may become a mem
ber by giving his or her name and paying if 1
per year or 2," cent quarterly. The follow
ing are the officers: President, Mrs. Geo. G.
Steketee; vice-President, Mrs. A. C. Sharp;
Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs. J. F. Homan;
Board of Directors, Mrs. A. A. Stearns; Mrs.
M. J. Maybee, Miss Mary Steketee.
A Quarrelsome Woman.
Edwin W. Chappel, of 474 Ottawa street,
swore out a complaint in tho Police Court
yesterday afternoon against Catherine Van
Driele, living near by on North Ionia street,
charging her with creating a disturbance on
Id premises. Chappel is a carpenter and
ha done a good deal of work for Mrs. Van
Driele. Tho latter became angry because
her husband had so much work done. Mon
day evening VanDriele was in Chappel's
house consulting with the latter with re
ference to the specifications of some work
ho projected, Mrs. VanDriele came over,
and being in a quarrelsome disposition,
created such a disturbance that Mr. Chappel
ordered her out of the houe. She then went
to the side of the house and began smashing
the glass ont of one of the windows, and
and nearly over-set a lamp which stood on
a table inide. The affair will be adjusted
before Judge Holmes.
A Loan Authorized.
There was a meeting of the laity and tms
te in the Westminster Presbyterian
church last evening, to consider the matter
of securing funds with which to continue
and complete the work on tho church.
There wa little discussion over the matter,
there seeming to le a unanimous feeling to
have the church finished a soon it possible.
The trustees were empowered to borrow an
amount not to exceed fl.T,P0O. This, it is
thought, will be sufficient to finish the work.
The new church i complete, except the in
terior work, and the window?, and when
thi additional sum i expended, this congre
gation will have one of the most convenient
and complete places of worship in the city.
Meeting Postponed.

which wa accomplished in the UniU-d

and practical paper on "School-Culture of

under "Alcoholic Trance,' a t&te of un-oonsciouane.-.
of a jtri-on's own acts which
bometimes follows the excursive use of
liquors; and therj is a discus? ion of "The
Problem of Universal Butfruge," by Alfred
Fouillee. ho touches upon the rights of
majorities and minorities, plural suffrage,
and political education. Any one who
imagines th.it a eit-uuiit magazine u neces

Allen's "Queer Flowirs," "Oddities of Ani

K. B. Taylor before the British Association,
on "American Aspects of Anthropology," is
given iu full, and Dr. Taylor is aho the sub

graphical eketcli. Those who have
read any of Mattieu William's arti

"Religion and the Doctrine of K volution,"
takes the ground that evolution concerns
only the mt thod of nature, and does not con
nect with an original creation or the exist
ence of a Creator. "The Perils of Rapid
Civilization" are illustrated by C. F. With
ington, M. D., in the case of the American
Indian, Maories, Hawaiians, and other peo

"The Oil-Supply of the World" is concluded,

In thi days of projrc;j there i & db
m&nd for better latcsis of iliciuinatian
than eTer before. The dartling brilliancy
of the tWtric light m&kt our conuuoa
kero.tne lamps as dim as tallyw dij in
the comjarion. This demand hn brvn
fully met by the introduction of thw 8cu
Lamps. They urr necvfarily made of
metal because the draft or chimney ex
tends down through the center of the
lamp. The wicks are fire incht wide and
give alight of forty-fire candle jotr, t qul
to thrti gru burner. The.-ie lamps were
brought out at the cloe of l&-t seion. but
the price was so high G each but few were
bold. Ou ins to the enormous demand w hich
has sprung up, they are now produced at a
price within the reach of all, and -old for
iu brass and $3.fi0 in nickel, complete with
ten-inch porcelain shade. To peion trou
bled with weak eyes or those who detire to
preserve their eyesight by means of a good
light, the Sun Lamp will prove a blessing.

made of a gold color fcolid bronze metal,
and trimmed with cut glass prisms and dec
orated shades. The doine-thaied shades
look the best, but wt? imagine the angle of
reflection from the cone fchape is bet for
throwing light down. These lamps are also
much cheaper than last year. They are now
sold at from 5 to f 7 each. Fine table
lamps are furnished with duplex or two
wick burners, giving double the light of the
single wick burners. There are many styles
of these lamps on exhibition, including Klid
bronze and the popular hammered brass.
