— FT 7 = —_To’ Working Menx—No one can
watch the persistent atteinpts of demaray the Jaborers again&t -other classes
Inthe gemeral acceptation of the term the
large majority of the people of the
United States are laborers, but in a restricted sénse those only engaged in
‘work by the day are classified as the
laborers of the county, and it: is to this
class that demagogues have directed
A large ‘class of these
ea of ana genee, who cannot. be
but many
men to belong to
that an attempt ispress them. These ap
made to‘opto prejawith appeals of laboring men to p
tect themselves against the “bloated
_ bondholders, and the Republican party
policy. This comes with an ill grace
from a party ruled by a Belmont, and
whose whole history has been repeated~
ly marked by efforts to degrade labor.
Many can new remember when “free
Jaborers” weré denounced on the floor
of hy Democratic Jeaders as
‘“mudsills of society,” and placed in the
sume catagory with the slaves of the
South, who performed their labors under the lash of the overseer. For years
leading Demoefats persisted im protect~
ing a system!of labor in the South that
shut out enterprising white labor, and
at last these very leaders took up arms
to establish a nation, the cornerstone
of which should be slayery, thus degrading labor and perpetuating its degradation by enslaving it. But these
California Democrats are appealing to
laborers to protect themselves against
Chinese labor and Chinese equality,and
while they are doing this, Demiocratic
Conventions beyond the mountains are
demanding Chinese laborers’as the only means of bringing back wealth to the
South. Long ago an attempt was
made by a leading Democrat to pass a
law having for its object the establish~
ment of a system,;—wheroby thousands
of Chinese might be bought for a term
of years and brought into the State,
‘yet these men. now “profess. to be the’
special champions of the laloring men,
_ and many laborers aye willing to aceept
them as such. Their professions are .
hollow pretences and shallow attempts .
at deceit. The Republicans of the coun~
try are the true friends of the laborer,
and have always been the champions
of freedom. Under a free government
labor can protect itself by its own innerent power. Let the mind take in
the vast extent of territory North,South,
East and West, under the government
of the United States, compare the
progress of the North and West with
the progress of the South and note the
difference. I+ will be found in the fact
that in one section labor has been free
and in the other enslaved. The Republican party has made it free every where
in the land and the laborer wants no
demagogue to shield him. Labor isa
power in this nation “and can protect
itself without the imposition of
those who have always favored its deg~
redation,
Let not laboring men be deceived i into a clanish warfare against any other
class, butenter the political field as all
American citizens, determined to support thht policy ‘best calculated to advance: the peace, prosperity and anity
of the entire nation, advocating a free
government as the very best protection
tor labor and Jaboring men.
Tae construction ofa ship canal from
New Orleans to Lake Pontchartrain, it
is assured, would diminish the pert.
charges in pilotage and towage. alone,
by the g: ot 81,800 om a. Fessel of
1,000 tong burden. “At present it costs
$2,525 to b a vessel. of that size
from the mouth of the Missi z
New Orleaus. The charges to'b
veasel of 1,000 tons from the cccan to
1e wharves amount to $370. at Boston .
and $676 at New York.“A Nice County.—At the recent .
primary election i im one of the outside.

o'clock.
INNOCENCE.—Just before the late
tepublica. election the Nevada TRANSCRIPT -argued—with mightand main
because Nevada City had s0 many caudidates the place would have few nominees. The TRANSCRIPT theorised well
and madé many people. believe that it
was quite right.. The election, however, showed that Nevada City Republicans centered on their qwn residents
asa rule,and cdred little for outside
precincts, and way stations. Our neighs
_boy of the TRANSCRIPT, of course, could
not know that this would be the case,
and he is innocent in the matter ; but
the Republicans down here say “no
more Crawford for them.”—G. V. Union.
The resalt was just as we predicted.
The yote was divided on the candidates
and if the Nevada vote was not count»
ed there “would only be « change of
two names onthe entire ticket. The
people of the outside places nominated
Nevada men. We neversaid that Neva.
da would get few nomineés,.but we did
say outsiders had a_ better
making a ticket than ever befor
with two exceptions they made it.
A VEKY useful article, called the
Endless Match, has made its appearance in San Franciseo, and is attracting
considerable attention. It consists of a
neat tin tube, about three inches in
length and a Jittle less than a quarter
of an inch in diameter. In this is
placed a match, which is run out of the
open end of, the tube, by means of. slot,
about one-eighth of an inch, when it is
desired to light it. By a gentle friction
it is ignited the same as any other
match, and will continue to burn by
pushing it out slowly. By pulling the
match back, or covering the open end
of the case with the cap used to protect it while being carried in the pocket
it is easily extinguished. ‘Torelight it,
it needs but a gentle friction as before
. and so on until the efitire match is consumed, One of the great advanteges
of the new invention is, that the match
can not be blown out, and it. can be lit
after being immersed in water.
Tux Silver City (1. T.) Tidal Ware,

It appears that a man named Pete Han-~
son and another whose name we have
not heard, were “on a run” and went
into a saloon to drink. The man said
to Hanson, “You whipped me a year
ago to-day.” Hanson said “Yes, but in
self defence.” “All right,” said the
other, “stay here a fow minutes,’ which
Hanson did, and'his companion returned with a six shooter, saying, “Now .
have the advantage of,you,” and fired,
killing Hanson immediately. Another
man rushed in to interfere and received
{a shot in the side by thesame pistol.
A LARGE lode of magnetic iron, or
lodestone, exists in Cope District, which

doubtless from the effects of lightning,
which for ages has made thiftepot its

oe FALL OF THE “FEMALE BLON-~
”—The London (Eng.) Shipping
Gs te says: On Thursday evening‘an
at Bolton. In connection with Pal
Fauque’s circus, the “Female Blondin”
had been announced for an outdoor performanee. She was to walk along a
rope fixed from the third) story of “the
Old Coronation Mills to the tep-of-the
-eiveus,; the-height-of she—rope—_being +
about 60 feet, and the distance about 80
feet. “About halfspast 7o’clock the
“Female Biondin;” entered the Coronation Mills, which are being pulled down,
and ascended the rope. She sauntered
aléng it for a few feet with a light and
easy step, but at about 15 feet from
where she started there wasa large ugly knot on the rope several inchestong.
She essayed to cross it, and then turned
back. In a moment, however, she re
sumed her perilous journey, amid the
breathless anxiety ef thousands who
stood 60 feet beneath her. She approached the knot cautiously, crossed
it, but just as her. foot was leaving ik,
shestumbled. At once she threw her
pole tothe crowd below, and with a
desperate effort she grasped the rope.
She is a strong, muscular woman,
exerted herself to régain a position ‘on
the rope, but hung suspended by the
hands. The wildest excitement prevailed among the spectators. There
were loud eries of “Lower the rope,’
which was done, but only a few feet.
With'more speed than it,can be told, a
large number of men massed themselves
together at the place over which she
hung by the rope, and begged.her to
let go and fall. She did .so, and was
caught by them, and although thé distance she fell was almost fifty feet, she
sustained no injury beyond the fright
and a shake.
