WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
ffttlilf Telt So. S, Sunday, October 10.
Mat the Bible says to the Legislator, the
judge, the Priest, the Landlord, the Capi
talist, the Rloh Man and the Trader; To
the Five-per-cent # Philanthropists, the
proflt-mongerlng Chapel Builders and those
who think the scraps and refuse from the
tables of the rich good enough for the poor.
■Go to now, ve rich men, weep and
howl for voar miseries that shall come
upon vou. Your riches are corrupted,
an d your garments are moth-eaten.
Your gold and silver is cankered; and
the rust of them shall be a witness
against vou, and shall eat yonr flesh as it
were fire. Ye have heaped treasure to
gether for the last, days.”— James v. 1 3.

Labor Notes.
Albany, Sept. 28.—George Blair, F. F.
Donovan and James Connely called
upon Governor Hill to-dav to preseat to
him the resolutions passed at the state
labor convention at Syracuse for the
pardon of the Theiss boyeotters. Gov
ernor Hill said he would in time give*
the merits of the application due consid
eration.
Cincinnati, Sept 28. —For several days
the railroad switchmen have been tak
ing steps towards an increase of wages.
They are now paid $1.90 and $2 per day.
This afternoon the matter culminated in
a strike of the switchmen of the Cincin
nati, Washington & Baltimore, the Ohio
S- Mississippi, and the Cincinnati, Ham
ilton A Davton switchmen.
Chicago, September 28. —The written
motion for a new trial in behalf of the
condemned Anarchists and affidavits in
support of it were taken to the state’s
attorney to-day. The motion affirms
that the verdict is contrary to the law
and evidence; that the court erred in
giving instructions on behalf of the peo
ple, in refusing to give certain instruc
tions asked on behalf of the defendants,
in admitting improper testimony, and in
excluding certain testimony; that the
trial was not had before an impartial
jury, and thatj.here is newly discovered
evidence.
Hammond, Ind., Sept. 30.—A large
manufacturing firm in Hammond require
their employes to buy a lot in the sub
division owned by the firm, relieving
all the old employes who refuse as fast
as an opportunity offers. No new em
ploye is given work unless he planks
down for a lot. Employes now owning
lots in other parts of the town are on the
anxious seat.
l.Kipsic, October I.—'The arrested So
i ialista may expect a severe punish
ment, possibly an imprisonment for five
years, which is ti.e extreme pe ,altv of
tin- law. Liebk necht’s speech in Amer
o-a, together with the recent donation
of b«i marks to assist the Chicago An
archists in obtaining a new trial, will
tell heavily against the defendants.
Chicago, October 1. —The motion for a
new trial in the case of the seven con
demned Anarchists was called for ad
ionrnment in tne criminal court this
morning. Various affidav ts were read
in an effort to show that three of tha
jurors, prior to beiug summoned on the
nanel, had expressed the view that tlie
Anarchists should hang. The argu
ments will probably consume two full
days.
Chicago, Oct. I.—The argument on
the motion of the condemned Anarch
ists for a new trial began before Judge
Gary to-dav. Captain Black, for the ac
cused, dwelt at length on two points.
First, that the state’s attorney intro
duced into the closing arguments sub
stantive matter not referred to previ
ously during the trial ; second, that the
evidence submitted bv the prosecution
was defective in failing to prove who
the principal was. Further hearing was
deferred until Monday.
F.ight affidavits were filed in support
of the motion. John Sorrell makes affi
davit that one Sunday morning shortly
following the fourth of May he heard
■luror Randall sav that Spies, Fisher,
Fieldeu, Parsons and others ought to be
hanged. John P. Deluse, a saloon
keeper at Indianapolis, swears that
shortly before the haymarket riot an un
known man came to his place, and put
ting a satchel on the bar, asked for a
drink. He said he came from New Y’ork
and was on his wav to Chicago. He said
ihe saloon-keeper *would shortly hear of
trouble in Cuieago. Pointing to his
satchel he continued: "I have got some
thing in here that will work. You will
hear of it.” Thomas J. Morgan declares
that he heard Juror Denker say of one
of the defendants : “He and the win le
crowd ought to be hanged.”
The old man plants the apple tree,
not because he expects to eat of its fruit,
but because there is an involuntary de
sire to bless those who come after him.
So let us in our assemblies and our daily
lives not work lor a day, a month or a
year, but all coming time, so that those
who come after us> shall bless us for
what we do while here. —lowa Inde

Chicago, October, 1. —It is stated that
the owners of the large packing houses
at the stock yards will attempt to re-es
tablish the ten-hour system on October
15, and in the event of a failure of the
employes to work on that basis they
will close down their houses.
The Knights of Labor of Troy, New
York are doing their best to beat the
sword into the plowshare,” Recently
the great armory in that city was sold
by the state at auction, and was pur
chased by the Knights of Labor for $13,-
000. It will be turned into assembly
meeting rooms, with the headquarters of
a labor paper located therein.
Pittsburg, October 4.— [Special.]—ln
the state supreme - court, which met here
to day, Justice Gordon decided that the
store order system, under the act of
June 29,1881, was unconstitutional and
void, inasmuch as bv it “persons are
prevented from making their own con
tracts.” In his opinion Judge Gordon
says: “The act is an infringement alike
of the rights of employer and employe,
and it is an insulting attempt to put the
laborer under legislative tutelage, which
is not onlv degrading to his manhood
but subservient to his rights as a citizen
of the United States.
If Dr. Aveling, the English Socialist,
goes to Chicago to stir up the restless
element to a rescue of the condemned
Anarchists, he will probably meet with
a warm reception. Chicago is in no
mood to stand any nonsense of that
kind. Dr. Aveling, if such is his pur
'pose, had better not stand upon the
order of hie going, but go at once to a
more congenial clime, —New York Her
ald.
New Jersey state legislative commit
tee of the trades and labor • unions met
at Trenton last Sunday, and appointed a
sub committee to prepare a supplement
tothe fac'ory act, making the first Mon
day of September a legal holiday, and
another preventing railroad and other
companies from instituting insurance re
lief bureaus for thew employes. The
committee was also fnstructed to propose
tactics in opposition to the proposed re
enactment of old conspiracy laws.
A meeting of about 600 workingmen,
with a few women among the number,
indorsed the Greenebaum hall ticket at
Twelfth street Turner hall last night.
T. J. Morgan ran the mei ting much as
he bad run the convention. He called
the speakers in their order, disregarding
the calls in the body of the house for
certain speakers. The platform and
principles as adopted by the Greene
baum hall convention were read, ap
plauded, and ratified unanimously. A
resolu ion was adopted that “this assem
b!p send greetings by telegram to the
United Labor party in New York, and
congratulations upon the nomination of
Henry George for mayor of New York
City.” The name of Henry George Was
received with applause and yells. Dan
Gleason and Goodhue were greeted
with long-continued applause. The So
cialistic character of the meeting was
sh iwn when Morgan explained that the
laoor movement was not confined to
Chicago, and its object was the abolition
of capitalistic class rule and the realiza
tion of the principles in the Declaration
of Independence, which has hitherto
been mere ideas on paper.—Cuieago Tri
bune.
London, October 6. —Tne local Demo
cratic Federation has issued a manifesto
in which it says, Hie unemployed are
certain to experience distress still more
severe than that which they expe l
enced in 1885. Honest workmen and„
their families are doomed to a hopeless
struggle with starvation during theeora-
ing winter. The wealthy classes are re
sponsible for this awful neglect of the
poor. Our rulers could not but fear for
themselves if they could see the misery
which their selfish apathy inflicts upon
the producers of their wealth. Show
them your despair, and their danger;
leave vour slums and follow the lord
mayor’s show in November, silently and
solemnly, in order to convince the rich
as thev are driven to their banquets, that
the most munificent charity on their
part can never plaster over the cancer
which their mad greed of wealth
planted in the heart of Our civilization.
Chicago, October 7.—Judge Gary, in
the criminal court this morning over
ruled the motion for a new trial in the
cases of the eight Auarchiats who were
charged with the haymarket massacre,
and confirmed the verdict of tiie jury
that Spies, Parsons, Fielden, Schwab,
Engel, Fischer and Lmgg should be
hanged, and that Neebe should suffer
imprisonment for fourteen years in the
state penitentiary,
James McGuffon, a clerk, aged fifty,
an intelligent looking man, was charged
at Marylebon police court last week with
throwing stones, to the common danger.
The prisoner, it appears, had thrown
stones at the police station window, and
on being arrested had stated that he
wished to be locked up. He told the
magistrate that he was destitute. He
had just come out of prison, after serving
three months. When he first went into
prison, he found it made his soft hands
very sore to perform the hard work al
lotted to him ; but he had became in
ured to it, and the best thing the mgis
trate could do for him would be to give
him six mouths. Mr. He Rutzeu asked
the prisoner why under these unfortu
nate circumstances he did not get wora
house relief, to which McGuffon replied
that he would rather sutler anything
than do that; “things would be better
in a month or two.” Unfortunately he
had partially lost his hearing, tiis mem
ory was failing him and he suffered from
writer’s cramp in the hand. The hu
mane magistrate discharged him on his
own recognizance in £lO to be of good
behavior for six months, and recom
mended him to go to the Prisoners' Aid
Society. What will become of this poor
old victim of the capitalist, worn out in
his masters’ service and then cast aside
to shift as best he can ? This is not the
only case; it happens to every man
whose labor is no longer profitable to
his master.—D. N. in Commonweal.
The police estimate that 50,000 people
walk the streets of New York not know
ing where they shall sleep at night, and
50,000 people sleep as best they can at
night, not knowing where or how they
shall break their fast after the coming
dawn. For these the situation is appal
ing, and the sole lalm, the solitary be
lief that comes to one who thinks of it
at all ia that protracted endurance of
suffering accustoms ita victims to bear
it, so that it really becomes a second na
ture, but added to this great army is a
still greater, a multitude of the genteel
poor —men in threadbare garments,
women reducad to the last expedient of
sharp endeavor.
To them a roof is an indispensabilitv.
To them appearance means mneh.
Circumstances of fact, if not the god of
potentialtv, are against them. The de
scent from moderation in living to pov
erty, and thence to destitution, is easy.
The loss of friends and acquaintances
becomes a necessity. Shabby attire tells
their situation. The pawnbroker has
his finger on the pulse of desperation,
and could give a more faithful photo
graph of these poor creatures than the
most expert, the best informed writer in
the world.
What are these poor people to do this
winter?—Joe Howard in New York
World.
The Blossburg Trouble.
The limited amount of time between
his departure and the opening of the
General Assembly prevented Mr. Buch
anan from a:'riving at a full understand
ing and settlement of Ihe trouble be
tween the Blossbarg miners and the
company. The Topeka officials gave
him assurance, however, that members
of the order would not be discriminated
against.
Eighteen thousand people were in
Union parkin New York, Sunday, to
listen to Dr. Aveling and Herr Lieb
knecht’s exposition of the labor ques
tion. The park was too small to accom
modate such a vast concourse and the
crush was decidedly uncomfortable. A
dozen or more singing societies had pre
pared to unite in songs of welcome but
the mammoth platform which had been
erected for their accommodation was or
dered to be demolished by the police
for reasons bes f known to themselves.
The New York Suu publishes a card of
remonstrance against the shameless
action of the police signed bv Mr. and
Mrs. Dr. Aveling and Herr Liebkneoht,
in which they say that in all their ob
servation of the action of the police of
monarchical countries they ever saw
such a brutal and shameful outrage as
that perpetrated by the New York
policemen on that occasion. Dr. Ave
ling and Liebkneoht charge that they
w*ere both struck bv the police simply
because they remonstrated against the
uncalled for clubbing of inoffensive peo
ple.
Those of our readers who have no
knowledge of the treatment of the work
ingmen in the metropolis by the police
may see nothing in the foregoing out of
the usual course, but if they could know
the persistent persecution practiced bv
the police officers of law and order at
any industrial gathering they would
share with their New York brethren
the feeling of deep and bitter resentment
which is current here. For instance, if
any speaker in these open-air gatherings
is requested by friends to speak on the
.labor question the audience is continu
ally disturbed bv the perambulating po
licemen, who, having elbowed their way
from one side to the other through the
crowd, retrace their steps and emerge on
the side from whence they came. An
other fayorite resource is to have roughs,
with whom they have a perfect under
standing, engage in the center of the
hearers, in a sham fight. Then of course
a grand charge of the police is made,
and any attempt of the speakers to be
heard is futile, and woe be unto him
who resents too rough a jostling. Man
hood is not a characteristic of the aver
age metropolitan policeman.—Labor
Journal.
Slavery in Italy.
One is tempted to crv out after reading
the following, “Oh, God! that bread
should be so dear, and human flesh nd
blood so cheap.”
The burial of nearly 200 persons in
one of the sulphur mines of Sicily has
called the attention of the Italian press
to the scandalous .condition of the
miners. Out of 600 Sicilian sulphur
mines 350 are farmed out by land owuers
to speculating tenants, who show small
mercy to their laborers. The laborers
are of two sorts—the “Pecunieri,” who
break u;. the sulphur inti portable
pieces, and “Karusi,” who carry up these
pieces out of the pit to the surface of the
soil. These Karusi are nearly all chil
dren from eigiit to ten years o. age.
They are miserably paid, and work
nearly naked, for the heat of sulphur is
intolerable. The loads they are com
pelled to carry cripple n 1 deform them,
and thev are often killed by the effect of
the sulphur on the lungs. The supply
of child laborers f .r this employment is
kept up bv means of a veritable slave
trade. Tne “undertaker,” as the tenant
is fitly called, pays poor parents a sum
for the use of their children for a term of
years. Tne highest sum is 150 livres.
The contract, in order to give it a stamp
of legality, has a clause empowering tne
father to redeem the child at auy mo
ment bv the payment of a stated indem
nification, but as the father is rarely iu
condition to find so much monev, the
child remains a slave.—Tne Co umon
weal.
The meeting held in the Cooper Union
last evening in response to a call bv a
committee of German Socialists was at
tended by a great and orderly audience.
Not only was the hall filled, but several
thousands besieged the doors vainly for
admi tanee. Both speakers and auditors
were mainly of German birth. Appar
ently it was the first of a series of meet
ings at which Herr Liebknecht and Dr.
and Mrs. Aveling propose to speak in
the great cities of the United States, the
first named devoting himself with some
ingenuity and more enthusiasm to mak
ing a pu lie protest against the condem
nation and sentence of the Chicago An
archists, while at tne same time
professing opposition hi their teachings.
Herr Liebknecht, who is a man of un
common intelligence and ability, has
much to learn in this country. Among
the things he may have learned last

“Social Solutions,” a semi-monthly
pamphlet, containing each a twelfth
part of an ad mirable English tr anslation
of M. Godin’s statement of the course of
study which led him to conceive the So
cial Palace at Guise, France. There is
no question that this publication makes
an era in the growth of the labor ques
tion. It should serve as the manual for
organized labor in its present contest,
since its teachings will as surely lead to
the destruction of the wages system as
the abolition movement lead to that of
chattel slavery. Each number contains
articles of importance, besides the por

are translated from ,M. Godin’s contri

an extraordinary offer.
To All Wanting: Employment.
We want Live, Energetic and Capable Agents
in every county in the United States and Cana
da, to sell a patent article of great merit, ON
ITS MERITS. An article having a large sale, pay
ing over ioo per cent profit, having no compe
tition, and on which the agent is protected in
the exclusive sale by a deed given lor each apd
every county he may secure from us. With all
these advantages to our agents and the fact that
it is an article that can be sold to every house
owner, it might not be necessary to make an
“extraordinary offer” to secure good agents
at once, but we have concluded to make it to
show, not only our confidence in the merits of
our invention, but in its salability by any agent
that will handle it with energy. Our agents
now at work are making from $l5O to $6OO a
month clear and this fact makes it safe for us to
make our offer to all who are out of employ,
ment. Any agent that will give our business a
thirty days' trial and fail to clear at least $lOO
in this time, above all expenses, can return
all goods unsold to us and we will refund the
money paid for them. Any agent or general
agent who would like ten or more counties and
work them through sub-agents for ninety days
and fail to clear at least $750 above all ex
penses, can return all unsold and get their
money back. No other employer of agents ever
dared to make such offers, nor would we if we
did not know that we have agents no* making
more than double the amount we guaranteed;
and but two sales a day would give a profit ot
ever $125 a month, and that one of our agents
took eighteen order! in one day. Our large < le.
scriptivc circulars explain our offer fully, and
these we wish to send to everyone Out of em
ployment who will send us three one cent
