Jefferson City, July 1.—The fol- | lowing communication has been re | ceived by Labor Commissioner Hal!: Hon W. C. Hall, Labor Commission- | er: June 30, 1891.—Dear Sir: I de- | sire to call your attention to the bi- weekly payment bill, passed at the last session of the legislature and which went into effect on the 224, | inst. It requires mine operators to pay their employes at least once in two weeks, and does not authorize the withholding of any portion of the wages duethem. It differs from the old law in the latter only re- quired payment once per month and permitted the retention of four days wages on any pay day. I suggest that you send to the | mine operators of the state copies of | the new law and advise them that it is the intention of the authorities to | see that the spirit and letter of the | new law is observed and enforced in | every respect. Respectfully. D. R. Fraycis, Governor. Mr. Hall is having the law printed in circular form and every one ef the 840 mine operators in the state will receive a copy and have his at- tention direeted to the act. No et- fort will be spared to entorce the law fully and completely. Probably Fatal Accident to Milhonaire | Roosevelt.

Chairman Brice Warmly Indors- es the Nemocratic Society. The Campaign of 1892 Already Well in Hand—Letter to National Committeemen. At no time within a quarter of cen- tury has there been more than a year ahead of a presidential cam- paign more aetively displayed in the political parties than at the present time. It is evident that the mana- gers of both the old parties feel that the contest next year will be one of life or death. The organizers are actively at work, aud the belief is that by the Ist of January next nearly all the voters in the Unit- ed States will be polled, and each | party will be able te make an esti- | mate ef its active strength in the | ensuing battle. The clubs are going to cut a very important figure during the next campaign. This feature of political life was introduced during the last presidential campaign, but. being new,it was not brought to per- fection and did not exert theinfluence | that it is expected the clubs will ex- ert in the next campaign. It is true that President Foster of the republi- can club issued a “fat-frying” letter attracting a good deal of attention, | but, nevertheless, the clubs of both ' parties are now well organized or are in the process of being organiz- ed and the national committees of beth parties have recognized them | officially as influential adjuncts of the campaign. For some time the democratic na- tional committee hesitated to give official recognition to tl at last it has come.

It is to their bold assertion of pop- ular rights,their stubborn defence of sound republican principles, that we owe the first overthrow of the fed eralist party, the election of Mr. Jef ferson and the blessed era of demo- cratic rule, almost unbroken from 1800 to 1860. The truly democratic club has ever been the engine of liberty en- dangered. The tendency at this time of the people of the United States tu enroll themselves together in neighborhood organizations of this character is one of the signs of the political perils which confront jthem. It is manifest that the ap proaching struggle is te be one mainly of clubs, and it is accordirg ly greatly to be desired that « uni- form and perfected system of demo- cratic societies.thoroughly organized and in intimate association with each» other, shall be established before the | beginning of the next year.

The City of Baton Rouge Visited by a Cyclone Which Destroys life and Wrecks Property. Baton Rouge. July 6.—A cyclone from a southwesterly direction pass- ed through the residence part of this city at 6:30 o'clock this morning, wrecking many houses. The peni- tentiary walls were blown in and many of the inmates were killed and wounded. The steamboat Smoky City was blown to pieces, there being nothing left of her but the hull. Several of the crew were badly injured. The cyclone passed over the lower part of town, unroofing houses, teare ing up immense trees and carrying missiles for many blocks. The cyclone entered the city at , the Garig brickyard, passed through Catfish town, and struck the hill to the east of John Johnson's residence.

The idea that the Alliance can in any way imperil democratic chances in any state does not, at any rate. appeal strongly to the judgment of the average person of intelligence in either of the great parties. No dis- tinctive principle or purpose of the democratic party is antagonized by the Alliance. Nearly every megeure advocated by the Alliance which has come up in politics in the past is fa- vored by the democracy. for free trade, free silverand against the national bapking system. These are the leading issues before the country, and on each of them the re- publicans take the opposite ground. It is the republican party, and not the democracy, which is menaced by the Alliance.
