DEBS LECTURES. The Famous Labor Leader Addressee a Large Audience in Chicago. Chicago, March 2. —E. V. Debs, president of the American Railway union, delivered his lecture: “Who are the Conspirators,” to an audience of 3,000 people at the Auditorum Thursday night. Thb address was replete with caustic utterances aimed at the general managers, the United States deputy marshals and the courts, and the crowd applauded the speaker generously. “The railroads will find out before they get through that they undertook a bigger contract than they imagined when they tried to down the American Railway union,” said Mr. Debs. “The general manageis could have averted the Pullman strike if they would have only said one word, but that one word was wanting.” After a very extensive review of the causes that led up to the great strike of ’94, Deks said: “If the railroads would pay dividends on honest investments they would bo able to pay honest wages. Tho General Managers’ association went Into partnership with the Pullman company to orush the life out of the A. R U. Back of it all was a preconceived idoa of all the railroads to lower the wages of employes of all the railroads all over the country. This has been done, as history will show. In their articles of faith,' as published In a Chicago morning paper, tho General Managers, association declared that \~they would stand mutually dependent ana that they would furnish money, men and equipment to each other and that they wished to foster sympathetic strikes so that the proposed cut in wages would bo effective and far-reaching. The General Managers' association was formed for forcing sympathetic strikes, and who, then, are the conspirators?” The speaker praised Judge Caldwell as the fairest-minded man on the bench. Turning his attention to the deputy marshals, Mr. Debs said: “When I was here a few days ago I met Capt. Palmer, of tho Chicago lire department. He told me that when his company was fighting tho fire in the line of box cars near Fifty-fifth street during the striko ho found a man cutting the hoso there. He promptly ‘slugged’ him and saw that he woro a deputy marshals’ star. Two officers In citizen’s clothos caught two men with oiled wasto in a box car and they were also found to be wearing deputy marshals’ stars. These marshals were from the scum of the city.” In conclusion Mr. Debs said that the corporations had driven freedom out of tho land, but he still had confidence in the integrity of the people, and expected to see that freedom restored through the medium of the ballot box, which it was still possible for the working people to control. lie added: “The working people are beginning to think and they will soon begin to act. They will not continue to supplicate for their rights, but they will take them.' Not in violence, not in rioting, not in anarchy, but in a lawful manner will they take them. “I have come to believe that industrial strikes cannot help the working people. They increase the senso of oppression. But Ido believe that the working people will inauguiate a strike, not by leaving their employment but by striking at the ballot box. I believe a better day is dawning. If tho night is dark. I believe that the dawn at tho day <j>f emancipation is close at hand.” i . M’GANN BILL PASSE;D. Measure Providing for Arbitration in Labor Disputes Sent to the Senate. Washington, Feb. 28 —Labor had its innings in the house Tuesday with the result that an arbitration bill recommended by the leaders of all of the railway labor organizations in the country, by Carroll D.

MARCH APRIL MAY / Are the Months in Which to PURIFY YOUR BLOOD The Best Blood Purifier is HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA Which Purifies, Vitalizes and Enriches the Blood.

Opportunities. They pass and pass again like shades of night; Swiftly sind silently they come and go— They brush against us in the darkling light And strained eyes never see them—never know. Until at last In some unthought of place One seems to catch a gleam th darkness through And turns to meet one’s future face to face. And hope that makes life glad is born anew —Alfred Stoddard, in DetroitiFreo Press. Manhood. Not till life’s heat has cooled, The headlong rush slowed to a quiet pace, And every imrblind passion that had ruled Our noisier years, at last, Spurs us in vain, and, weary of the race, We care no more who loses or who wins— Ah! not till all the best of life seems past Tho best of life begins. To toil 1 for only fame, Hand-clappings and the fickle gusts of praise, For place or power or gold to gild a name Above the grave whereto All paths will bring us, were to lose our days, We, on whose ears youth’s passing bell lias tolled, In blowihg bubbles, oven as children do, Forgetting we grow old. But the world widens when Such hope of trivial gain that ruled us lies Broken among our childhood's toys, for then We win to self-control! And mail ourselves in manhood, and there rise Upon us from the vast and windless height Those clearer thoughts that are unto the soul What stars are to the night. —A. St. John Adcock, in Spectator.
