or THE PEOPLE—FOR THE PEOPLE BI THE PEOPLE. RdH.r WoMtwn Wosi.n < J have been taking yotir ;*|>cr I Hit n abort Um», and ai« raiwiingly well pleased with it. And 1 am becoming mui'huWt lu(«< rated every day in the progress and prosperity c£ the Knights of Labor. I ant not a wage-earner, but have always been engaged in some use ful enterprise, or business—including fanning. Yet I have always felt more or less interest in the welfare of the work-people—especially those employed in factories, where so many children are compelled to work many hours in a de bilitating atmosphere under regulations sometimes cruel, for small pay. But I think one reason why the wage earner is imposed on is that the indiffer ence manifested by our legislators, and then the indifference of voters—includ ing workers —as to whom they vote for as legislators. The legal fraternity mo nopolize the offices, as if there were no mechanics, merchants or farmers with sense or education enough to perform the duties of them. There are hundreds, if not thousands, belonging to either of the classes mentioned quite as capable of fil ling any position, from President down, as amongst the lawyers—men who would be better informed as to the wants of the people, and more in sympathy with them. Let us have a change. The laboring class would rejoice to see Dr. Felton or some ona like him Governor of Georgia. Augusta. Augusta, Ga. Editor Working World: I have traveled extensively over the State recently, especially over Middle and North Eastern Georgia, and I find the people disgusted with political can didates for Governor; but ripe for a gen uine peoples’ candidate, without regard to past political affiliations. The people say that Hon. W. H. Felton of the countv of Bartow? is their choice, over either of the other distinguished cit izens mentioned, and express the opinion that if this much esteemed citizen would signify his willingness to serve his fel low citizens as Governor, he would sweep the State. Clarke. Athens, Ga., May, 1886 Southern Iron. ' The New Orleans Times-Democrat in a recent issue published a very interesting history of Southern iron- It seems that * the manufacture in this section is by no means of recent origin, and indeed that the search for the metals was more zeal ous and eager in colonial days than now, while the art of iron-making in the South was in greater perfection before the revolution than it has been since. Our New Orleans contemporary state: that the earliest information that iron existed in America came from North Carolina. whfire the expedition fitted out Tbbff discoW.nl iron me on a reconnoissance up the Roa noke. As early as 1608 iron and iron ore were exported from the Virginia colony to England. For some time before the rupture with the mother country the iron industry of Maryland and Virginia had grown to considerable importance. One enterprise in the former colony is espe cially worthy of attention, since among its founders—and, later, among its man agers—we find the names of Augustine and Lawrence Washington, father and brother to the liberator. The blast fur *ace in which these gentlemen were interested was erected by the Principio Company, on Principio creek, in Cecil county, Maryland. Later, the same company bought land of Captain Augustine Washington at Accokeek, in Virginia,and thereon put up another plant and still another—the Kingsbury fur nace—in Baltimore county. In 1751 the company owned and worked four fur naces and two forges. It is stated that about one-half the pig iron exported from the colonies was produced by this company. General Washington was thus per fectly familiar with the fact that the South was rich in manufacturing and mineral resources, and always believed that the Southern section of the country would, eventually, become the leading industrial region of the continent. The devotion to agricultural pursuits hereto fore exhibited by our people have de layed the fulfillment of these predictions and prevented us from making such headway as we should. The day is at hand now, however, when the far-sight ed sagacity of the Father of His Coun try is being vindicated, for Southern manufactures are increasing rapidly and i steadily, while already we are enabled to j successfully compete with the iron in dustries of Pennsylvania, notwithstand ing that they have been developed for a ong period, and given all the assistance faat capital and governmental protection «ould afford during many years. [A large portion of Georgia, especially abelt between South Carolina and Ala bama, mostly jgorth of, but travsversed bythe Chatahoochee and Etowah rivers, I is particularly rich in iron ore of very superior quality. The late Hon. M. A. Covper sent some from his Bartow coun ty property to England many years ago, where it was manufactured into steel and razors of the finest quality made of it. In territory now comprised in Madison and Habersham counties, iron was made —or hammered, by primitive methods, I directly from the ore —before and during the revolutionary war.—W.

The wages of the laborers at the mills I of Brown, Bonnell&Co., at Youngstown, |O., have been increased from sl,lO to sl,- 120 per day. The publishers of the City Directories of Albany and Troy, N. Y., have com plied with the request of the Typographi cal Union and gave their work this year to a union office instead of the boycotted “rat” office of Weed, Parsons & Co., who have done their work. Owing to the labor troubles there is great depression in the building trade in many cities. Builders and contractors are afraid to make contracts to build houses while so much uncertainty pre vails as to wages and hours of labor. Fully twenty thousand tailors and tailoresses returned to work last Monday, in Chicago, on the basis of nine hour’s work and ten hour’s pay. In Austria, two years ago, union print ers were discharged and their place filled by gi rls at low wages. The typos adopted a novel and effective way of getting rid of this cheap labor. They married them. Eighty four Boston boss paiu-ers have agreed to the eight-hour schedule, and 750 men have returned to work. Messrs. Potts & Coates, proprietors of the Rose Valley mills, near Media, Pa,, have increased the wages of their ging ham weavers 10 per cent. The Enterprise mill at Woonsocket, R. L, which has been shut down for the past four or five years, has started up for the manufacture of yarn. The Jacksonville, Fla., printers have run the “ rats ” out of every office except the Times Union, which is being boycott ed. The Arlington Cotton Mills, Wilming ton, Del., under threat of a strike of 400 employes, ha ve ordered an increase rang ing from 20 to 30 per cent. At, Chicago, Monday morning all the sash, door and blind factories in the dis trict started up. The men will get nine hours’ pay for eight hours’ wqrk. Arbitration bills have passed the New York and New Jersey legislatures. The harness manufacturers of Newark, N. J", having refused to abide the award of an arbitration, over 600 men are out on a strike. The anarchistic outbreak in Chicago seriously interfered with the success of the eight-hour movement. . —*.*.• K. OF L. NOTES. Organization ia progressing all over the country; strikes are being abandoned, troubles arbitrated and agreed upon be tween employer and employes; the only exceptions being wealthy corporations that refuse to recognize or treat with their employes, and insist on settling only on their own terms, or decline to listen to any proposition for settlement. A new song entitled “The Noble Knights of Labor,” is being sung nightly in the theaters of New York with much success. Missouri farmers are rapidly organiz ing with the Knights of Labor. The women—clerks, sales ladies, book keepers and dressmakers—are about to join the Knights of Labor at Lynn, Mas sachusetts. The Bohemian Assembly of Knights of Labor in Cleveland, which placed itself on record this week by denouncing the anarchicsd methods of their fellow countrymen in Chicago and Milwaukee, have demonstrated the falsity of the proverb that no good can come out of Nazareth. Detroit now has a number of colored Knights of Labor. When Knights of Labor, and the high est authorities in the organization at that, protest against indiscriminate and hasty striking and free use of the boy cott, it shows to the people how moder ate in the use of its force a great body of workingmen can be. K. of L. Assemblies, composed chiefly of farmers, are being rapidly organized throughout Indiana. Quite recently there appeared a call signed by five officers of as many trades unions for a conference in Philadelphia of all trades union officers to “devise means to protect our organi zations from the maliciousness of an ele ment who boast that trades unions must bo destroyed,” etc. The call indirectly reflects on the K. of L. The Tocsin says it has “ received letters from some of the 1 signers ’ stating that they never append-; ed their names to any such call ” This ; looks bad for the promoters of the con ference. There is no doubt that there is “ nigger in the wood-pile” in this row that has been stirr ed up between trades unionists and K. of L., and it is to be hoped the K. of L. and unionists true to the cause of labor will, by conservatism and calm < onference settle all differences and expose the conspirators, their meth ods and aims, and thereby put all labor organizations on guard against their fu ture schemes.

From out the factory gate there came A maid of tender years; With downcast eyes she wandered forth. Her cheeks bedewed with tears. “ Hal'd is the lot of a factory girl,” Were the words I heard her say; “ The sneers and frowns of an angry boss And scanty, too, the pay. “ Eleven long hours I toil each day. Within a noisome room. Amid the din of clashing wheels, The clinking of the loom, Inhaling foul and nauseous air, And fined for faults unknown; Ah, often times I’m made to feel That life is not my own. “ What better am I than a slave. That’s in the market sold, To swell the tyrants pilfered wealth, And whet hie greed for gold ? A slave no longer then I’ll be; Whatever be my fate. My footsteps never shall be set Inside a factory gate. “Os justice I have heard men boast, Os freedom heard men speak ; But none of these blessed rights Are for the poor or weak; Might is the weapon tyrants wield Against the toiler’s rights. To crush their endless efforts . Aftfldefeat their glorious tights." —M. C. Hzanxx. ’ Jamaica Plains, Mass, —■■■ - Clarke County Grand Jury.

Will any of the above-named gentle men give the particulars as to the taking up of a collection by the grand jury to pay John W. Black’s fine ? Leland Stanford, the millionaire Sena tor from California, believes in paying workmen by the hour. “We find it on our road, the Central Pacific, more satisfactory to us and to the men to pay by the hour, and permit the men to work as long as they choose. I find that the greater part of them usu ally prefer to work ten hours. These men have labor to sell, and the amount they sell of it we leave to their own ’ judgment. I have never had a fair opportunity to study the workings of the eight-hour law, but I believe the average of intelli gence and ambition among the working men in this country is greater than any where else in the world- There are al ways men in every community who will waste their time, no matter how much they may have, but the majority of them will improve their leisure, either by study or in physical recreation, which is just as important.” The competition system is fitly repre sented by the human family hand in hand in circles surrounding a crater, where each is with diabolical determina tion engaged'putting all in, and all with the same damnable spirit is putting each in. That is, each against each, each against all, all against each, and the crater for everybody. Debt is the crater, usuryjis lhatforce fills it. Law is the ex pression of that force, and greed is moth er to the law. Greed and hatred are synonyms. Greed, then, is the anthithe sis of love. Love works no ill to its neighbor. Greed works naught but ill to him—like Cain, it is not its brother’s keeper.—Chicago Express. The anarchical lx>mb-throwing, in Chi cago, killed and wounded 66 policemen. Five have died, and fifty-one are still off duty from wounds. The Warns of the Land The Knigbte of Lutat have done and are doing n.nre for women than any ■ omen’s Rights I jaagtir ever at tempted. ; They give women equal right* of mem ' liership. They demand equal pay for : equal work, whether performed by man :or woman ; and by seeking to rwtrict the employment of women and children in factories, they give employment to more men, and enable them to sup port wives and families in comfort, in stead of dooming both men and women to continuous physical labor wk waires barely sufficient to sustain life. Is not this a movement which should com mand the respect and assistance of every honest man and woman ? If there is one class on the face of the earth, says the Texarkana Workman, who deserve the sympathy, the earnest efforts of organizations as well as legis lative enactments, it is the women of America. The condition of the seam stresses, the factory girls and other branches of business where they are em ployed has been depicted in language that fires the sympathetic heart, and de mands the most strenuous efforts to ameliorate it. The heroism, devotion, patriotism, unfailing, patient and un complaining forbearance and meek ness of the women of America, are both widely known and world-renowned. The lowly laborer adores the wife, mother and sister with as deep, lasting and undeviating devotion, as the richest millionaire in the land. He is as jealous of her fair name and fame as the bluest blooded aristocrat of Virginia. Nay, more so. The toils and cares of this class bring them into closer communion and intensifies their affection, thrice cement ed in the crucible of life’s struggles and sorrows. He realizes fully her condition. He feels and knows the heavy hand of oppression laid upon her delicate organi zation. He has felt the sting of dis grace and debasement to body and soul, which grim want has led her into. He has seen the insults heaped upon her, because of her humble lot in life, by the villains and scoundrels in the shape of manhood, who deem that poverty has no virtue and the lowly have no honor. Now the noble order of the Knights of Labor, rise up in their might and man hood, and demand that she shall have equal pay for equal work ; that she and her children shall be kept out of the dan gerous influences of employments that are a drain upon their physical powers and a menace to their virtue and morali ty. Poverty is no disgrace, and beneath its patched garments beat loyal hearts, transcendent beauty, lofty aspirations and perfect manhood and womannood. No nobler work was ever conceived— no more glorious undertaking inaugurat ed—than this protection and elevation of women by the Knights of Labor. It stamps them as the champions of a movement which commands the respect, admiration and assistance of every hon est, Christian and high-minded man and w.finan-hi tho land. The elevation of woman in her social status, in intelli gence and the graces, means the pro gression of society in all those elements which purify, ennoble and raise humani ty in the conception of the true aims and purposes of life. —Labor Lance.

REV. SAM JONES, A NTI OY OF THK NOTED SOtTHt- I ERM KU A Mill. INTN MANNER. Not an Orator, "a« Rrntua la,” bm Swaying Ilia Auditors with Karneatneaa and a Flood of Thought. Sam Jones, if questioned about the secret of his influence upon the masses nf I people who throng in thousands to Lear ■ Ctffi “'g—..L-.v-uf uo might say with modesty and with some truth what Mark Antony said with subtlety: I am no orator as Brutus is, But as you know me all, u plain, blunt man. He makes a queer impression upon one who looks at him over a long stretch of masses of heads and tries to estimate his qualities as a speaker. But the first idea is, what a magnificent audience. The big, low-roofed hall is packed with peo ple, and the banks of spectators slope up to the ceiling on all sides. The form that rises upon a platform almost in the centre has the eyes and ears of all that vast as semblage. There is no greater oppor tunity for eloquence; for the speaker has an audience that hushes its chattering curiosity to catch his every word, and he has a theme above aUnother themes that have called forth eloquence. The figure is not an impressive onp in its quiet conventionality. The speaker in a cutaway coat showing his watch chain might be taken for a well-to-do clerk or engineer. The first peculiarity is noticed when he lifts his hands. The lanky, cuffleas wrists contrast strangely with the white-collared neck. But Mr. Jones has not overlooked an article of his dress. When he lifts his arms in apos trophe or ptayer that stretch of bare wrist has its proper dramatic effect. He is a man who is appealing to the people, and he does not wish to have any more starch about him than is necessary. The voice has a plaintive as well as a penetra tive quality; it rises and falls, slowly, drawling, and with every phase tippod with a rising inflection and a twang. It is not wearisome; it is soothing. It is the voice of one who has never been in much of a hurry, and it might have taken its melancholy color from the loneliness of the mountains. It is homely, but not rude. The sermon begins and one wonders at the speaker’s fluency. He takes an idea and he spreads it out as thinly as they spread the butter on the bread at a charity school. Ho is never at a loss for an idea, for he keeps ringing the changes on the old one till something else occurs to him. When he feels for something frosh, he passes his hand slowly over his head, running his fingers lightly through his hair. He seems to have the assurance of innocence itself; thoughts panting for utterance do not stumble or crush each other at his lips; he never suffers from the rush of ideas to the brain. Other men may tremble or flush with the message that is in them and struggling for deliverance, but Sam Jones has a calm consciousness of power that would well become a power that was greater. ; He soon makes a joke. There is a rip ple of applause and a great gratified cackling. The fringe of spectators near the doors who have been sitting and staring at one another with the indiffer ence of sight-seers suddenly crane tboir necks and cackle with the rest. That is undoubtedly what some of them hava been waiting for. It is said that Amer icans are flippant. Some, indeed, speak of their flippancy as irreverence. But there are others that hold humor, even if it sometimes run away from the apron strings of taste, is a healthy child and will grow up rugged and manly. Mr. Jones, it would hardly be original to say, is a humorist. It may be questioned whether the tragedy of life has impressed him deeply, but it is certain that the comedy has touched him acutely. But stop. He strikes a pathetic chord. He speaks of maternal love. The tone is true, but not overwhelming. An orator would have swayed that vast audience, and for a single instant perhaps have fused all souls in a single flame of feeling. Mr. Jones is not the master of his hearers. There is something wanting in him to give him absolute control. The expres sion of indifference returns.to some faces, the sfrille of amusement to others, a.id the loose, flowing sentences slope lazily through the air. Now and then, when a point is to be made, the speaker stoops low, and lifting himself high while sweeping his arms, gives forceful utter ance to some epigrammatic thought. This is what breaks the monotony at in tervals. Once an imaginstive flight is attempted—the description of a caravan in the desert sending the cry of “Water found” from one veice to another toward the rear. The figure is a fine one, the simile as it is applied is apt; but before the effect of what is really eloquent is obtained the speaker branches off on a trivial story. It may be said that what is the best in Bam Jones is his easy, familiar way. The very fact that he takes no pains with words or with calculating effects proves that he is not a really great speaker. There is something more than instinct in the triumphs of great word-builders and great word-utterers. There is work, hard, patient, and sometimes painful. Mr. Jones’ fluency is at once his gift and his fatal defect. He may convince' many of the people who hear him; but be does not thrill them with enthusiasm, The word “brother” is scattered through his rambling discourse, and the kindly, off-hand way in which it is spoken makes it effective. It is the best thing he does. The people in the building go scramb ling out as soon as he is through; they have listened to one of their own kind, speaking in their own everyday way, of duty and of other things: they have been interested; they have been tickled—noth ing more, unless one be permitted to as sume that they have been bettered by vhat they have heard.— Chicago Tribune.
