Chicago union bricklayers have refused to work on any job where carpenters were working ten hours a day under po lice protection. The labor demonitration in Albany on Sept 6th is ejpected to be tbe largest ever seen in that city. Several union dgarmakcis of Bing- hamptoD, N.

Carroll U.Wnght. chief of the Naliocal Bureau t f Labor Statistics, has decided to investigate for his next report tbe con dition of working women in lities. Tbe Steve moldcrs of Elizabeth, N.

Most people believe tkat tbe $5tl,000 year which the President gets as his sal ary is the sum total. Tbik is a mistake. The estimite of the amonnt which Coa- greas is to appropriate thia year lies be fore Ds, open at the page relating to the President, We see that $36,074 is a<ked for him in addition to his salary of $60,- 000. to pay the salaries of his subordi nates and clerks. His private secretary is paid $3,250, his assistant private se cretary, $2,260, his stenoghrapher $1,800, five meseengers each $1,200 steward $1,800, two door keepers who each get $1,200, four Other clerks who receive good salaries, one telegraph operator, two ushers getting $1,200 and $1,400, a night usher getting 81,200, watchman who gets $900 and a man t take care of fins who received $864 year. In addition to this there is set down $8,000 for incidental eipcntcs such as statiOLsry, carpets and the care o f Uie President’s tlablee.

The Irish World pays tbe following handsome tribu'e to the head of the Knights of Labor; Tbe wonderful bold upon the bearls ol tbe working people fsr which General Master Workman FowderJy is noted is due tu character as well as genius. The incoiTuptibility of his public and private life has borne testimony to the purity of his motives. The completeness of his dedication of bis life to the cause of the oppressed has never been called in ques tion by those who know him, and it is not only a fitting recognition of those virtues in him, but it is at tbe same time a vindicatiOD of tbe working people themselves that they have rallied around such a leader and hearkened to Lis adqice in every great emergency. That confidence has been kept unshaken by Mr. Powderly’s persistent refusal to enter tho arena of partisan politics or ac cept any nomina'lon that rai(;bt seem in tbe least to divide the singleness of his allegian*2e to principles regarded by nis constituents as desrer than any party ties. We are pleased to find him consis tently following that patriotic course, though offered tbe highest honors to the gift uf his State at the hands of the poli ticians. T h e ^ h e reof effort to which be has consecrated bis life’s energies is more sa cred, more beneflcisl to hia conntry aud mankind, and more full of honor in the eyas of history than that of the chief magistrate of the Keystone State. The personal sacrifices which he has made for the organization and tbe prin ciples he represents have been greater than he should have been called upon to make; but he will find some compensa tion at least in the consciousneos that the cause for which he denies himself will thereby be adyance.i further and higher. He has not grown disheartened, for the rewards he seeks arc evidently not those of a selfish ambition. The logic of such sacrifices will not be lost npon tbe public opinion of the coun try, or fMl to advance the cause upon whose alter they are laid. BOYCOTTING NOT A NOVELTY. Boycotting itself is not new; the name is. If we turn to the Bible we find in the Mosaic law commands to the chosen people to boycott many people and A shipload of British tea was vigorous ly and effeciuslly boycotted in B<Mton harbor more than one hundred years All through tbe revolution the patriots boycotted the tones. In tbe nortb during the rebellion seces sion sympathizers were boycotted. In tbe South the boycott was used against loyal men so effectively that they changed tbeir resideaoe. Buuneas men boycott each other. Men and women boycott tnoee whom they do not like. Employers boycott men who have been in their employment. Take as an example the boycott of the Times of this city <a the men who left its em ployment when Mr. Tucker was forced out of the concern. It is absurd to talk of the boycott as anti-American and as something newly imported. It is resorted to to-day by every man, woman and child. I t stands for a familiar characteristic of humanity. —Troy Press. BEST 50c. TEA IN TROY. Ambrose Kelly, 299 River Streat. Try a sample. W. <fe M. Gross 119, 119)4, 121 «fc 128 CONGRESS Si. COR.
