B | o BU oAI LVR I 1 IS 5 e - The FPational Bauner & PSR A R & sk ! ‘ 7 , Socialistic Opinjons of Jndge West . From his speech at Oleveland on Wednesday, oA e I desire to say, my fellow citizens, to you a word only upon; a subject which I know is uppermost. in the minds and in the hearts of most of you. It is.that the indust‘gg of our - eountry shall be so rewarded as that labor shall at ledst receive that compensation which -shall be the support and sustenance of .the laborer. 1 do not knowr how it may certainly be broughtabout. I know the difliculties; I know the embarrassments; I know how insurmountable are the obstrgctions in the way of any equal or prop- ¥ er adjustment of the relations between those who labor and those who furnish the means and opportunities to labor. ‘But if 1 had the power I would try one experiment at least. I would prohibit the great railroad corporations, the great thorotghfares of business and trade, from so reducing theijr rates by ruinous competition as to disable themselves from paying a just compensation to their opsrators. I would go further, and try the ex- . periment—but I-do not know that it “would succeed—l would arrange and fix a minimum of prices for all who labor in the mines and upon the railroads, and’then require that from all the net receipts and the- proceeds of the capital invested, the laborer at the end of the year, should, in addition to his fixed compensation,-receive a certain per cenf: of the profits. ° . Then, if ‘the profits were insufiicient to compensate you as liberally as you might otherwise desire, you would bear with your employers a portion of the loss. But if these receipts be sufficient to make a division, we would in God’s name let the laborer, who is worthy of his hire, share a portion of the profits, . : :

What the Texas Pacific Wants. The Philadelphia Times, in speaking of the Directors’ report of the Texas Paeific Railroad Company, recently published, says: » [n alluding to the subject of Congressional aid, the Directors of the Texas Pacific road give a statement of what they ask from Congress. They propose an open highway, 1,400 miles in length, from Fort Worth to San Diego, whjch, with the road now completed, shall be under Government control. Last winter political disputes prevented the consideration of theéir project, but they hope to gain favorable consideration at next winter’s session, They propose to limit the Government’s liability to $2,500,000 per, annum, for which a first mortgage is offered upon the road "and 18,000, 000 acres of land. Government bonds, -bearing 5 per cent interest, are asked ‘at the rate of $35,000 per mile of road: constructed, $5,000 per mile to remain in the Treasury of the . United States. It is a private enterprise, they say; designed to secure the psople, without cost to the Government, a national highway,—the construction of which! at this time is believed -to be a field for the employment of the surplus population. . The recent - discovery of coal mines, and the development of rich agricultural and ‘mineral lands upon the line of the road are referred to as reasons for the opening of this great Southern highway, |

Why Railroad (}o'rp‘fratlons, Are sa Unpopular. Lafayette Journal, ~ e h : We believe the answer is this: The people have seen how the railroads besieged the lobbies of legislatures and bought such special legislation as they wanteéd. A large number of raiireads have been built in whole or in part by tax donations, and whereever there has been a railroad tax there hag been a steal. The people have seen the railroads approaching the back entrances to the ears of the gourts, bribing judges, as they have legislatures and congress, and buying corrupt decisions as they hayve bought corrupt laws. It is this idea of the power of money to. commit fraud unpunished, corrupt the fountains of justice and the servants of the people, as represented, or believed to be represented, in. the railroads, which has arrayed such a hostile: sentiment against them. And if railroad eompanies see ip the substantial success in the issue of the strike only another instance of the power of money to mould everything;qto its purposes they will make a serious blunder. It occurs to us that such an evident and prevalent hostility ‘among the p‘eqile -toward the railroads is x:tthy of and demands more than a passing thought; and if railroad; managers read the lesson aright they will do something in years to come to remove this prejudice. m; Yn L ‘ .

' The labor question will pre--29@1; i&ag&,i,n;gwo-ammg first, what ‘¢an be done towards a permanent set‘tlement of the question, and, second, what for the immediate relief of unemployed workingmen. Both aspects of the case are equally important. Something must be done, and undoubtedly can be done towards a better definition and adjustment of the relations befween capital and labor, and if possible something must also be done to relieve the immediate wants of the unemployed workingmen. h will not be 8o much ‘a question of what shall be done as what can be, for what can be ought to he. 1t will not be a question of the dufy of: government so much as one of congtitutional power .and resources. There are thousands of unemployed men in the country willing and anxious to work, but unable to obtain employment. . When | Congress meets winter will be near at ‘hand, and: the case will call for prompt action. With the best efforts that can be made there will be a great deal of suffering in the country next winter., Though we believe times are improving and business reviving, this is a slow process, and in spite of everything there will be a great deal of destitution and suffering during wnext winter. Under these circumstances the country will expect Congress to give the matter prompt and intelligent consideration, and to do whatever can be done towards furnishing relief for the people. We liave already expressed our opinion that the clause of the resumption act requiring the resumption of specie ;payments. January 1, 1879, should be repealed. - There can be no doubt that this act is the main cause ‘of the prevailing lack of confidence, which in turn produces a general stagnation of enterprise and business. We believe its repeal will be followed by an immediate sense of relief, and in a short time by a more active movement of capital than we have had for -at least twie years past. : «

i Placky &irls at Syracuse. Syracuse (Ind.) Gazette. ¢ Sy . On Saturday, when the town was crowded with {people. and everybody seemed to enjoy the time, there were two young ladies in Syracuse who were not happy. These two hailed from Webster. They were a nice looking couple of girls, and ought to have ‘enjoyed themselves, but it seems that, .despite all the earnest protests of the ladies (?) their “fellers” would not altogether keep out of thesaloon, hence their trouble. = : Sl

-~ But then, these gitls were not of the kind that will sit- down and cry over such-small troubles. Not much! They simply entered the saloon in which were a hundred immodest men, and cauded a little consterpation® by kicking things around and emptying some very fine ivory billiard balls-into the street. They seemed to think they had done a noble deed, but the comments which that hundred men passed upon them would not do to relate here. As a Warn(er)ing, however, it is suggested by the saloon-keeper that if they do not wish to go out of the room upon the toe of a Long boot, they had better, hereafter, commit such depredatiohs ‘when he does not see them.

Blaine' on. a Third Term for Grant. Special dispatch to the Boston Herald. : - WAsmINGTON, Aug. 17.—Mr. Blaine a shoort time ago disclosed his political programme to a very prominent pergon in the service of the Government. ‘He said that it was a mistake to supposeé that he was looking to the presidency in 1880. lle waslooking beyond 1880. Ie hoped toosee Grant renomi‘nated by the Republicans in 1880, and believes he would be beaten. Then, with Grant out of the way and an oppogition President:in power, he believed the Republicang would be compelled to take him as their candidate. He believes that the Républican party is destined to defeat in 1880; althqu%h, of course, he would not say so openly. ‘Thus it appears that both Conkling and Blaine (for different reasons) are in favor of the renomination of Grant in 1880. . Conklingbelieves that Grant could be reelected, and Blaine sees .clearly that he could not. ‘Conkling’s ‘constant puffing of Grant is meant to Keep him in view as a Presidential candidate, and the Grantmovement is to-day the most pronounced and best organized political scheme that is ‘afloat in thetcountry. -

Row in 'the Republican Camp of ! ; vt A ‘Wabash -Courier, : . Many of the Republicans of Ohio are unwilling to gulp down Hayes and his Southern policy,notwithstanding the morsel has been nicely sugared by the Cleveland convention. A meeting. of . anti-administration Republicans was held at Columbus last week and was attended by a goodly number of malcontents from various sections of the State. They denounced in terms the resolutions adopted at Cleveland as “inconsistent with the professed declaration of fidelity to the Republican party, as a falsehood adopted solely for party expediency, a libel upon the Republican party of ‘Ohio, and unworthy of the grand record of the party.” A resolution was adopted inviting Republicans of-the State to correspond with them as to the best methods to pursue during the present canipaign. These men are deeply in earnest and have the sympathy of a good share of the Radicals of the State. They will prove very %glf]ective -aids to the Democrats of o, :

7 Reformed Drunkards. Aunburn Republican, | | Some of our people who never drank whisky or were disgraced by drunken children or relatives imagine that it-is putting a premium upon drunkenness by allowing ‘men who were once drunkards, and who have anow reformed; and are trying to save their fellow men by lecturing them to refrain from the evil of strong drink and- reciting : their own experience ‘while themselves drunkards, by encouraging them in their work. Men who have had no experience are unable to portray the evils of intemperance. All our preachers were once sinners, and you might 'as well say that it is putting a premium upon sin by allowing a man to preach who was once a sig[xlier. as to say it is pufting a premium®pon drunkennes because a lecturer was once a drunkard. If ‘people would go to work for the cause of temperance with the same vim that they do to hunt up excuses not to work, they might be of some benefit tothe caume, . -

Worse than Slavery. ‘ The Mobile Register purposes to get even with the Yankees. It announces the publication of & report made by a creditable eye-witness of aninvestigation of the condition of Northern and Eastern operatives. Its readers may prepare, it says, for a recital of horrors which no nation, ancient or modern, has ever excelled, 1t will show ‘how life has to be sustained by the working classeés among those who shed tears over the fate.of the poor slave of the South, and they will shudder ‘when they hear of the physical sufferings and moral degradation o which ‘Nerthern operatives are subject, drawing a long breath of thankfulness to %mwwwwkwg; cot-. fimmw; od by such,

Sensible Workingmen. An immense meeting of workingmen was held at Columbus, Ohio, a few nights ago. The intelligent mechanics, the hard fisted laborers, the honest sons of toil who demanded a fair day’s wages for a fair day’s work, turned out en masse’and adopted the following ringing and sensible resoluflons: o otJ e f - WHaeREAs, Ttlis an admitted fact ‘that the business and laboring interests of the country are paralyzed, and that capital invested in legitimate industrial pursaits fails to produce a living profit to those investing it, and thereby reducing the wages of compensation of the mechanic and laboring men eémployed by said capital in industrial pursuits below that absolutely necessary to support themselves and families, while capital invested in untaxed bonds and interest paid in gold by the government furnishes no wealth tothe country, but accumulates wealth in the hands of the few: therefore be it : o

Resolved, That after sixteen years of almost unlimited power, and with exclusive control over the legis}ittiun of the country, we are compelled to the conclusien that this distress! prevailing among the people employed in the productive and industrial pursuits of the country is wholly attributed to the pernicious legislation of the republican party, which has been invariably in' the interest of a centralized money power, without a proper regard for -the interests of the .people who add wealth to the country by their labor, pay its taxes and fight its battles. Resolved, that this being our opinion we shall use our influence and our votes to procure a change in the executive and legislative power of [State and general government as soon as if can be accomplished through the bal-lot-boxes of the country; and to this end we shall labor for the election-of the democratic State 'and Franklin county tickets., - : .

A Post-Ofiice With Secret Passagzes, . A storv that reads like a medieval refitance comes from New York. In refitting the old post office building the carpenters have discovered that the upper floors are double, and are arranged so .that detectives could watch the operations of those in the different ‘rooms, who suppose themselves to be alone. The whold building was furnished with secret passages, shding panels,hidden trap-doors, and mysterious chambers, of whose existence the postofiice -oflicials had no knowledge—with the exception of the postmaster and dssistant. = When the workmen had redfoved the flooring, it was seen that the concealed spacejwas from four to four and onehalf feet deep, affording ample room for men t 0 move about. Passages led entirely around the building. At very short intervals were found small gircular holes in which were inverted lenses. Through these a view of the room below was obtained. Back of and above these lenses were reflectors which brought before the eye of tho observer the utmost recesses of the postoffice.. If a detective saw any stealing or any improper action committed either by a clerk or by a person not employed in the office, the speaking tube by his §ide conveyed a warning at once to the atti¢c room, and the guilty person whas met at the door, or tapped on the shoulder in the interior of the oflice by another detective. The apertures througli which the detective overlooked the rooms, are in most cases so small as hardly to be visible from the apartments below. Some of them, however, look boldly down from the casement, but as the planks in which they are seen were obtainable from very old timber the holes would-readily be taken for knot-holes. 5 : ’,

L “My John.” 0 New Orleans Picayune. ; | Governor Nicholls’ apartments were crowded yesterday with many visitors who had called upon matters| ot business (and some without bnsiness); when suddenly the Governor's attention was attracted by the door flying violently open whereupon in stalked a female of no very small diniensions. The Governor, with his usual urbanity, rose and asked the female to be seated ; but this, with scornful mien, she peremptorily declined, at the sarhe time asking, “Are you the Gzovernor ?” “I am, madame,” was the reply. - “Well, sir, if you are the Governor, I would like to know where my John

The Governor became confused, and inquired, who is John ? B “Who is John, indeed ?” reiterated the excited individual. “Who is John ? Why, sir, you as Governpr should know that Jobn is my lawful, wedded husband.” . - il : “I assure you, madame, that I know nothing of your John, as I have never seen him, and this is the first time I ever had the pleasure of meeting you.” Whereupon the infuriated female hissed forth: “You'rea pretty Governor, to be sure; Governor of the State of Louisiana, and not know where my John is! 'Why, sir, the duty of a Governor, let me tell you, is to know where every decent, respectable woman’s husband is.” o Thereupon she made a break for the door and came near upsetting the porter, who, as luck would have it, made -a dextrous lunge to one side and saved ‘himself. 5 At ] 5y

A Hairy Child. ' : 8t euben Republican. : 1 ; We must say that the child, Gracie Gilbert, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Giles Gilbert, who resides sixteen miles east of Angola, in. Northwess township, Williams county, Ohio, is the greatest living curiosity we have everseen. The child is about eighteen months of age, finely formed, bright, sprightly and health¥y, and almost entirely covered with hair. ' The hair on its head is some twelve or fifteen inches in length and is very heavy.— Its whiskers are three orn four inches in length. On its back, body, arms and legs, is & thick, heavy, but.fine, silky growth of hair, covering almost its entire body and some two or three inches in length. And, strange to say, there is no repulsiveness in the sight, no deformity, and, moreover, no humbug.

' A New Capitalist. = Detrolt Frea Press, . 0. Lo vGI i . He don’t look as if his pockets held filty cents, but a rich man has a right to dress as he chooses. He loafed up Griswood street until he saw the right sort ofa face, and then he asked:- = S ' “Can you show me a bank?”. i “Yes, sir; three doors below, or just across the street, or right back there.” 5 - “Thanks. I'd like to put some money in some bank, but I’m a little afraid of banks. I always did prefer a note of hand to a bank.” The citizen picked up his ears and asked: S

He said he could make good use of a few thousand dollars for a year, and some of his friends might also take a few thousand more. The stranger put down'gin, whisky, lager and brandy until his legs gave out. The citizen laid him on a bench and tried to sober him; but the fellow went asleep while they were trying to force vinegar down bhis throat. The bar keeper said he was an old loafer, and a policeman was sent for to take him to the station. ' When they got him there and searched him, they found four cents, a brass backed comb, and a door key in his pockets, and the citizen who wanted to borrow a few thousand dollars went to see if the mail had come in.

. - County Roads. : . Afew words on county roads that may benefit some supervisors, are contained in the followings ; The surface of a road is not to be regarded as an arch, to sustain the welght of vehicles passing over it, but as a roof to protect the material beneath. ' The road bed should be thoroughly drained, else the road can never be good. A loose, sandy road will be improved' by a coat *of six inches of clay—this may be placed on one-half of the road, leaving the other half for summer gravel. In like manner a coat of six inches of sand on a clay road will be a material improvement, The surface of a road should slope six inches in ten feet, from the center line, The line of slope should be straight, not curved. The plow'and scraper should never be used on roads; their work is great ' in’ quantity, but wretchedly poor in quality, The plow breaks up the surface which by use has become hard and passable, and the scraper brings in from the sides alluvial soil and matter liable to decay, All holes or depressions should at once be filled up; the neglect of this is the greas fault in our system of road repairing, A little work is done once a year, and the rest of the time the road is left to take care of itself, Holes should not be filled with alluvial matter or turf, which at first is deceptively tough, soon disintegrates, and forms the worst sort of mud. Nor should they be filled with stone, which does 'not wear evenly with the rest of the road, but leaves it in bumps and ridges, : 1 ek

" Sherman’s Programme. Indianapolis Journal. The theory of Secretary Sherman. in regard to resumption, as announced in his Mansfield speech, is briefly this: Resumption does not necessarily mean redemption nor a permanent retirement of the green: backs. * It simply means bringing them to par-with gold, so that-a paper dollar.-will buy as much as a gold dollar. 'When this point is reached" resumption will be reached, and there will be no anxiety to exchange greenbacks ' for gold. Secretary Sherman thinks this can be “at= complished even before the time fixed by the present law. He thinks that before January Ist, 1879, “every dollar of United States notes will buy as much as an equal amount of either gold or silver.” We are willing to admit that he ought to understand his business, ang that his opinion is entitled to weight, but we fail to see how he proposes to float $360,000,000 of greenbacks and nearly an equal amount of Na‘tional bank notes at par with about $200,000,000 in gold, which is the utmost he can expect to accumulate for the purpose. e

Morrisey’s Generosity. 2 - John Morrisey may be a very bad man. . Some sanctimonious people we know of doomed him long age to the lowest depth of the infernal regions, but John has got a better chance than some of the canters in the last great “falling in,” gambler, prize-fighter and democratic politician though he is.— Young Minnie, who in a competitive examination with many other applicants in a New York congressional district, for the West Point cadetship, got the appointment, being a waif, with no father or mother, a dependent on the bounty of a poor but kind-heart-ed colored man, had no money to get the required outfit to prepare him for West Point. It was so announced at the time of his appointment. 'lihe first man in all the United States with the liberality, the heart, the soul to answer, was “John Morrisey, the gambler,” who telegraphed young Minnie's guardian to draw on him for the money necessary.—Soulh Bend Register, : e e

There never has been a time when the healing of so many different diseases has been cauged by outward application. as the present. Itis.an undisputed fact that over half of the entire popula- | r.ilont of the glohe resort to the ure of ordinary ' plasters. ; ' g : ' Dr. MzeLvin's Caprsioum Porous PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind, All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continualli( to effect a cure; but with these it ig entirely different: the instant one is aplglie&‘the_ patient will feel its effect. hysicians in allaées have thoroughly tested “and wellknow the effect of Capsicum ; and it has always been more or l¢ss used as a medical agent for an butward a?pllcation; but it is only of very recent date that. jts sdvantages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineced of the wonderful cures effected by D=z. Mervin’s Carsioum Porous PrAsTrRS, and their superiority over all other glasfieta, they now actu“ally prescribe them, in their gmctice. for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have re%ulred the use of plasters or liniment.
