A representative of MalieriX Seery
called at this otlico and Raid that the
pbrnsc ''didn't care a for the
patronage of the laboring men" at
tributed to them is wrong. It
should be "I don't give a dam
whether they coino down to the
Uock or not." We cheerfully make
the correction in. the interest of
truth.
The local press tells of a conven
tion of delegates at Hartford repre
senting the "Land and Labor Clubs
of the United Labor Tarty in this
State." This is t ho first intimation
wo have of tint United Labor I 'arty
having invaded Connecticut. There
are a few Land and Labor clubs,
however, ami the local club elected
a delegate, but h" says ho did not
attend.
A. C. Traeger is the proprietor of
an establishment on Center street
with the sign "Hotel" emblazoned
on the outer wall. Prosecuting
Agent Fewlcr says it is not a hotel.
Communication between the bar
room and living room is the point
on which Fowler bases a suit to re
voke Traeger's license to sell liquors.
If the house is decided to he a hotel,
it is all right; if not. the law de
mands a revocation of license. Law,
under the capitalist regime, is pecu
liar, and irives prosecuting agents
ami lawyers special facilities for
"making" money.

two scalis at work. They make it a
point to acquaint new-comers with the
situation, ami have thus far intluetieed
nine men from oitn,' to or reiiiaiiiint; at
work for Isaac. The Moriiiiiij Sum
made the assertion that the waives aver
aged from ft'.' to f l.'ia week, t !' course,
that is a lie. The men say that they had
to work very hard to make a week,
and then they only had seven or ciht
months of work out of twelve. They
say that one of the scalw is a member of

The ! i'i fci tin I iiiii is the plan of sub
mit! ing lo Ihe vole of the electors all
laws, rules, etc., for ratilicalion or re
jection, alter having been passed by the
legislature or board. In Switzerland
I he only country in which I he referendum
has yet. been used for legislal ive purposes
- all pioposed laws must he submitted to
(he peopie on demand of III). 000 voters,
vv liii b is about one lil'leenlh of the con
stituency. This avoids the necessity of
bringing before the people a large mini
her of laws pertaining to (he details of
administration, it being assumed there
cannot he any great opposition to any
law when n it a lil'tcenth of the constitu
ency desire its submission,
In the management of the nll'aiisof
labor, co-operal ive and other societies,
it .would seem (hat if four-lil'ths of the
managing body (the whole body having
been elected by proportional representa
tion) approve a certain measure, the ma
jority of the members would also ap
prove (if it. liul as these may be scat
tered, perhaps the referendum should be
used on demand of one tenth of the
members, ol one tilth of the Hoard of
directors, or other managing hotly.
The principle could lie extended ultirma
tiv clv also, so that any measure proposed
by one lillh of the Ihreetors or by one
tenth of Ihe members should be submit
ted to the vote of the whole membership,
thus securing ahsoliitedeinoeracy. Tin
could be embodied ill I he Const it lltioli as
follows:
1. On demand of nne-lifth of the
members of (he Hoard of I lireetors ,
any constitutional provision, law, rule
or regulation passed by said I'.oard must
be submitted to nil I he members for rat -ilical
ion b) a majority vote; ami any
constitutional provision, law, rule or
regulation rejected by said Hoard, or
winch no member of the Hoard will in
troduce therein, shall he similarly sub
milted for ratification or rejection by
the members as a Uxly. Hut any propo
sition, law, rule or constitutional provis
ion so submit led ami rejected by a ma
jority vote shall not he re-siibmitled in
less than six months from the date of
said lirst submission.
NOTICE!

requested to appoint agents in their
respective districts to agitate for the
party journal. The agent should
write to this othce under seal for
