THE QUESTION THAT AGITATES THE
FEDERATION OF LABOR.

Labor circles are beginning to discuss
Ihe coming convention of the American
Federation of Labor, which is to begin
In tlie city or New York on Deo.
Time was, and not so many yearn ago
citbor, when Ibe general assembly of the
Knights of Labor was far and away the
most important labor gathering of the
rear, but nowadays the lead is taken by
the convention of - the federation, the
membership of the unions affiliated with
It being not lees than a million, while
JOHSM'BBIPt .
from one canse and another the mem
bersbip of the Knights of Labor has
been greatly reduced.
The coming convention is snre to be
a spirited one. Many questions are com
ing op, the disposition of which will
have much to do with the future of the
organization. - Possibly nothing more
important will need to be considered
than the choice of president. Last year
at Denver John McBride, who tor years
had been head of the organized miners,
was chosen in place of Samuel Oompers,
who was the first president of the fed
eration as at present organised, and had
served continuously until that time.
The first convention of the federation
was held in Pittsburg, in "vember,
1881, when the title of "The leraticn
of the Organized Trades and Labor Un
ions of the Cnited States and Canada"
was taken. Knights of Labor assemblies
and trade unions were equally repre
sented, and it was understood that both
forms of organisation should be pre
served and that the two should work
hand in hand for the perfection of unity
among labor organizations. About 860,
000 workers were represented, and since
that time conventions have been hold
annually. -.
For awhile, however, the federation
did not increase rapidly in strength.
This wss no doubt in great measure due
to the booming growth of tbe Knights
of Labor. Since the Knights began to
decline tbe federation has increased year'
ly with great rapidity. The points of
difference between the Knights and the
unions affiliated with tbe federation
though not generally understood, are
many and radical All of these need not
be entered into here, but one of the most
striking lies in tbe fact that while the
general assembly of the Knights is
strictly secret meeting, the convention
of the federation is open to spectators.
Another point is that while tbe chief
purpose of tbe Knights is ostensibly tbe
revolution of economic conditions, that
of tbe federation's unions is tbe gradual
changing of conditions along evolution
ary instead of revolutionary lines, while
tbe immediate object of the organiza
tion is the securing of better wages.
shorter hours and other material advan
tages for the working people. Between
tbe Knigbts and tbe federation a decided
antagonism exists, and more than one
contest between warkingmen and their
employers has resulted in disaster to tbe
men through this antagonism. No doubt
tbe bad feeling is much fostered by tbe
somewhat pronounced socialistic ten
dencies manifested of late by the Knights
of Labor which are not indorsed by the
federation. 1 ;
Another important point of difference
In addition to those named is this: The
Knights of Labor is a highly centralized
organization. The various trade and
local assemblies of tbe Knigbts are gen
erally supposed to obey the orders of tbe
general executive board, issued through
the genera master workman. It is not
so with the unions making up the Amer-
who form the executive oonnoil may be
and frequently are asked to give advice
when strikes are proposed. But what
Uiey have to say is always simply ad
visory and in nowise binding, while it
is often disregarded. But whenever a
strike is approved by the executive coun
cil, as soon as it is ordered by the union
directly interested, all the affiliated on
ious join in supporting it by money con
tributions and otherwise.
The executive council may lay a boy
sott when asked to do so by an adju
sted union, but before doing this must
Investigate the cause of the request and
may refuse at discretion. It is expected
that all unions will respect a boycott
when ordered, but there is no penalty
for failure to do so, since to force obedi
ence in that matter would be to disre
gard the federation's fundamental prin
ciple. It should be added, however, that
a union would hesitate long before de
ciding to disregard a request for co-operation
in a boycott, since such action
would render it liable to lack of support
by other unions in case it should ask for
assistance.
The failure of Samuel Oompers to
win re-election last year at tbe Denver
convention was unquestionably a great
surprise both to him and the majority
or his supporters. Opposition had been
developed, it is true, at previous con
ventions, bnt he had always been too
strong for his opponents, and it was sup
posed that he would continue so at Den
ver, lhofe who were against him in
previous yrs had generally been of the
more radical element which bos not al
ways been satisfied with his coarse, and
bad Mr. Oompers and his friends un
derstood that in certain circumstances
other elements than the radical ones
would combine with them against him
they might have so arranged matters as
to re-elect him after alL It should be
stated to the credit of Gompers snd his
friends that they accepted defeat in good
part ; that they are as good federation
ists now as ever, and that they have
supported President McBride daring the
past year with perfect loyalty.
whether Mr. Oompers will be unan
imously supported for election to his old
place by those who have supported bim
in tbe past it is hard to say, bnt there
is no doubt of there being a Iivejy con
test for the presidency. McBride will
have some very strong support for re
election, as a matter of course, and there
will probably be several candidates in
tbe field.
In the American Federation of Labor,
as in tbe Cnited States generally, lo
cality has something to do with senti

tion of a number of national, interna

good, each onion being entirely auton
omous in the conduct of its own affairs,
but co-operating with the other unions

tha several unions to one another is al

who opposed the election of Mr. Mo
Bride tbat bad the convention been held
elsewhere than in a far western city last
year the result of tbe balloting would
bave been different. As the convention
will be held in Hew York, the very cen
ter of the conservative element, for the
first time this year, it is believed by
those making up that element tbat they
will stand a much better chance of win-
Ding than tbey did last year.
Tbe candidates who have been talked
of include men from both east and the
west The name of Mr. Oompers is, of
eonrse, a prominent one in all discus
sions of tbe federation's presidency, but
there are some who hold that P. J. Mo
Quire of tbe carpenters, a Philadelphia
man who has built up his own organiza
tion in masterly fashion, would make
an excellent president. - The carpenters
would back him solidly, and they have
890 votes in a total of about 3,600. Mr.
McGuire is a clear and forcible speaker,
and is well known in labor circles gen
erally. Some there are who favor Joseph
Vallentine of tbe iron rdolders, and be
would probably be a strong candidate.
since, although he is acceptable to many
easterners, be now lives in San Fran
cisco, and is therefore popular in the
west The iron molders have 160 votes
in the convention. 'Another man who is
highly spoken of is William Prescott of
tbe International Typographicr' mion,
who is now serving his fourtl m as
president of that organization, and is
the first of its presidents to be elected
beyond the second term. The printers
have 860 votes in the convention. Mr.
Prescott lives in Indianapolis. August
McCraitb of Boston, another printer, is
likewise spoken of with great favor, and
in the opinion of many, J. B. Lennon,
secretary of the Journeyman Tailors'
International union, ' would make a
good president Be is now treasurer of
the federation, and although his union
is not so large as the unions represented
by other possible candidates mentioned
sbove, he stands extremely well with all
ss a safe and fair minded man who has
passed through a varied and extensive
experience in tbe labor movement Mr.
Lennon now lives in New York, but as
the headquarters of the tailors are likely
to be removed to tbe west, and as he was
originally from Denver, he may prop
erly be considered a western man. Still
one more candidate who stands well
with every one is Daniel Harris of the

anion has 800 votes in the convention.

Of all the rich unwritten annals, polit
ical, social and moral, of the third and
fourth dooados, no tradition resting upon
memory has come down to our times more
replete with romantic dash, niorrlmeut
and brood fun than the incident of "The
Philadelphlan's Famous Kiss," which
evolved throo great natlous and nearly the
Whole diplomatic world, anme with fierce,
hot anger, which threntvniH) for awhile the
staid and decorous Quaker City on the
Delaware witn the rate or I lector and old
Priam's doomed dry of Troy, while the
balance of the world was convulsed with
uproarious laughter.
Claiming tlio old man's privilege of
generosity, I will give the story of the kiss
as It came to me, partly through the gos
sip within the precincts of the Imperial
palace of Brazil, partly through the oosslp
of naval circles o year after the occur
rence. This tempest of anger, bot and
floras and of fun loud ami boisterous, was
created by a brlftlir, handsome, dashing
Philadelphia youth, a scion of one of tha
oldest, most powerful and generally he
loved Philadelphia fain lllea, who had left
his native city for the first time In 1839 to
do his devoir us a midshipman on the Bra
alllan station.
Barton was his name, and under the In
spiration of his first naval uniform he be
fore sailing had hecn doing some rather
loud boasting. His sister and a bevy of
ber young associates, mthor disgusted at
his airs, had questioned his ability to re
alize his big boasts, among which was his
wild pledge to kiss a foreign princess bo-
fore ho revisited his native, city, Thl ex
travagant pledgo appeared to his sister
about on a par with the promise of M.
Parades to recover from the enemy the
captured drum and suggested the wa
ger of a suit of clothes mado by the must
fashionable Chestnut street tailor against
the most costly silk dress In the Quaker
City.
After a year or IS months of incessant
watching for an opportunity to redeem
bis pledge Barton at last found the object
of his long search. Almost within the
precincts of the palace the royal coach of
state came rumbling along one of ' Klo's
narrow streets, followed at a short distance
by a squad of mounted hussars. In tho
coach were the two young princesses, the
sisters of the late Emperor Dom Pedro,
who, then about 10 years old, was under
the tutelage of a regent Barton saw the
state coach approaching and planned his
audacious scheme with cool and excellent
judgment. He stood at a corner where tho
coach would probably turn, out of sight
for a moment of the lazy escort, and quick
er than thought he had, regardless of has
ard and peril, rashly jumped up behind,
and through the aperture behind kissed
one of the royal occupants of the coach.
Of course the princess screamed because it
was all done in open day on one of the
most frequented thoroughfares of the city
of Bio Janeiro. Having won his wager
with his sister, Barton quietly resumed his
position at the banquet as if nothing had
happened. The amazement of the hussars
at such a daring and perilous action was
so great as to paralyze speedy retribution.
and Barton returned unmolested by the
sunset boat from the palace stairs to bis
ship.
But he was not left long In quiet on his
snip, me not blood or the lsraganzas was
up in arms, calling loudly for the death of
the plebeian miscreant who had soiled
the royal maiden's cheek with his hot ple
beian breath. The regent made a demand
for the delivery of the young offender, to
be held to answer to the offended laws of
Brazil first upon the captain of Barton's
ship, which was promptly refused, and
then upon the secretary of state at Wash
ington. The evidence of Barton's culpa
bility left no loophole open through which
even a Philadelphia lawyer could find es
cape, and Mr. Forsythe, General Jackson's
secretary of state, was at his wits' ends
how to avoid making an abject apology to
the incensed Braganzas, the Portuguese
branch or that blur blooded family having
come Into the quarrel to rescue the family
honor from a detested plebeian's audacious
desecration of the cheek of their royal
cousin of Brazil.
As a tub to the angry Bracranza whale a
court martial was appointed to try Barton
for his contumacious familiarity with the
insulted Brazilian princess. The sentence
of the court was that Barton should be
cashiered from a profession he had so sig
nally outraged. That sentence was sent
by special messenger to tho Brazilian re
gent, and our government was courteously
thanked for the prompt reparation It had
made. It was a fact not perhaps known
to the Brazilian regent that the sentence
of the court could only take effect after tbe
president's approval, and when the sen
tence was laid before the president for ap
proval be scouted the Idea of stigmatizing
a young gentleman for' an act rash and
perilous, but too strictly in line with hu
man weakness to be dishonoring.
Summoning Barton to Washington be
fore final action of the sentence of tbe court
martial, the venerable president accosted
Barton thus, ''Did you kiss tbat Brazilian
princess, as is charged against youf " "I
did," was the unhesitating reply. "Wtat
prompted yon to such a rash, Impudent
actf Was she so ravlsbingly beautif ulr"
'No, " replied Barton; '-she had large.love
ly, almond shaped eyes and a splendid suit
of dark hair, which hung nearly to her
feet in two heavy plaits, altogether a very
pretty girl, seemingly In bad health. Why,
general, I lu.ve kissed the rosy checks of a
hundred prettier girls in Philadelphia, and
they never made half the fuss that this
tallow faced Brazilian has. It was a mo
mentary impulse to win a wager I made
with my sister before sailing fur the coast
of Brazil. A id, as for the enormity of the
offense, I cannot see it in that light at all,
I felt at the moment tbat as an American
officer I was conferring an honor. " Turn-
Ins: from bis subordinate with a pleasant
smile to bis necretarv of the navy, the com
mander in chief of the army and navy thus
addressed him: Woodbury, I rather like
the boy for his dash and daring and out
spoken candor. Ho did no mora than you
or I or any mem tier of tbe cabinet would
probably have done at his age and in his
place, Reinstate him, Woodbury, upon
the books of your department, making a
small memorandum opposite bis name to
the effect that he is rather too excitable for
service in the torrid zone."
Thus pleasantly ended an episode more
pregnant with warlike threats and laugh
ter than any which has befallen the great
republic since Its birth.
Barton s path and mine, much tc my
regret never converged. IL Sklpwith In

Oriddletop Beck to Ufa,
"Some men need one spar, some an
other," said Mr. Oratebar.
"Now, there was my friend Sylvanns
Oriddletop. Mr. Oriddletop wss a man
with a fair income, which, when the
financial cyclone came along, was very
greatly reduced. Mr. Oriddletop prompt
ly shortened sail to accommodate him
self to the altered weather i- he econo
mised in all directions, and he was sur
prised to find how much he could econo
mise; and while tbe new order of things
wasn't like the old, it was gratifying
to Mr. Oriddletop to discover that it
still afforded some measure of comfort
"At last the financial cyclone passed,
but Mr. Oriddletop, who had accepted
the changed situation manfully, now
discovered that in the course of that
enforced period of comparative idleness
his manfulness had given way to slug- i
gishuora; he had found it quite possi
ble to live upon his reduced means, and
now, instead of making an effort he did
as men sometimes do in like circum
stances he settled down into a placid,
dull contentment with what he had.
"One of the economies that Mr. Orid
dletop began to practice immediately
upon the curtailment of his income had
been that of blacking his own shoes.
There bad seemed no easier way of sav
ing $18 a year than this, and he had
found the work easy enough, without
realising at tho time that this, like
many another economy, like giving up
going to the theater, for instance, meant
tbe cutting off of so much communica
tion with tbe world, and so tended to
the gradual narrowing of his existence.
"One day, when he had occasion to
see a man on a matter of bnsiness, find
ing his shoes in a not very presentable
condition, Mr. Oriddletop stepped np
on a bootblack's stand and took bis seat
in the comfortable chair, as he had not
done in a year before, and put bis feet
upon the metal footrests. - It was like
stepping back into tbe world from which
he had beeu so long apart ; it awakened
in him a desire for all the old time ac
tivities and pleasures of life. He stepped
down from the bootblack's staud with a
new ambition. It was for him just tbe
needed spur to action." New York

"When Monnt Tabor, N. J., wss first

church," said a clergyman of that de
nomination recently, "we had little
money with which to clear up tbe
grounds and erect the first buildings
necessary. After potting np a sort of
open air pavilion in which the preach

"'You beaut! Help! Help! Murder!'

wild and disheveled locks, appeared at
tbe door clutching a boy, wbo was more

by holding the knife close to the back
bone and loosening the flesh from it on
both sides. Next, the fish was laid open
and the backbone taken out This left
the adjacent large bones exposed to full
