Tho wiotched condition of eo mony thousands of thaeo who belong to the working classes is duo to tho systom of action whoso operation is necossarily fatal to tho idea of manhood 88 » ritlo, and the developniont of true dignity of chinractor among mon.

Bin ¢ I do not wondor that you disclaim any rosponeibility for, or sympathy with, my viows on the labor question. Youhave, no doubt, beon inoculstod with the common Amerioau malady,— beuevolence,—n malady which too often closes tho ear to the voice of justice, and opens it to any sound of sorrow. It will now malte our citi- zous only too veady to forgot that the ory for bread is accompanied with thut of blood; and that the men who ask favors by forca should be firmly mot by that power which they wanton- ly ivsult. If your OCity Government is not sble to stoud in its cousticutionnl limits and attend to ite lawful business, you should send to somo museum, for a wax Em- peror or sawdust King, and put him at the hoad of niairs, Lot theso men who threaten tho poaco of tho city know that the business of our Governments —National, State, and Municipal—is to protect cvery man in bis right to tako care of bimself, nud prevent his onoroachment on tho rights of others ; and that thoy have nothing whatevor to do with providing either work or bread for any one. Other people should remember that the cost of & torchlight-procession would buy out woveral bakerlos, and that it is not hungry men who got up those expensive parades, The prico of a pint of beer, a plug of tobacco, or n good Ail, however, wauted to Lo 1cueved by tho Moewory.

CITIZEN, DIVIFON OF PROFEVTY, To the Editor of The Cnicago I'ribune: Bt Now that the labor question has assnmed #0 werious ou aspoot, and appenrs to grow of gravor importuuge, year by yesr, would it not bo woll for some of the groat wind of our country, who protees to bo interested in and act ns lond- crs to the movoment, to make it moro cloar to thio minds of those who do not understand, what is the benoflt, or whera the justico, in dividing among nil mon equally tho acoumulated wenlth in our land, a8 this scoms to bo thoir chiof alm,— giving to thoso who hava neithor the braing nor inclination to make or keop tho woalth whicl, Dby tho oxerciso of superior fncultios, other men have accumulated after yoars of hard toll. Did tho great Croator divido wis- dom and genius, or auy of the qualitios ceson- tial to sticeens, cqually fo each inbabitant ot the world? I think wo ‘will nil answer No; and might we not as woll complain of this partinlity? As thora are superior minds fu literature, tho arts and selences, why should thero not bo as well thoso to whom the gilt of uutwlr[ng wealth hing been Divparted moto than to otbers ? In this country of ours, whe:o avory ono has the opportunity to obtain at lenst o competonsy Ly fiugality, industry, aud porsovoranco, seome Lardly crediblo that Communistio prinel- ples could gain even o hoaring, Itis not here, ns in Luropesn countries, that the fortunes and ostates were usurped byan favored fow, and aro posacssed from goneration to gonoration by ono family; but most of our rich mon have worked from the lowest rounds of the Indder; ang should those pion bo compollod to divide with others who are too impationt to work contontedly until thoir timo, or aro too im- ’)l‘uvldullh to savo for the rainy day in tho future? The laborer works but ton hours per day, aud yot often reccives more compeusation than clorks in most of tho businoss-houses, who mora ofton avorago twelva and fourteen howms; ond yot thoso same clorks nover robel or complan; they work on for thie bost interost of their employer, hoping at somo fuwure timo to receivo incrensed romunora- tion, a8 they become mora proficiont fu thoir dutiod; aud it is only by principlos of strict ccon- omy ond suving that tho fow fiom the mauy lidreds employed in o fargefirn aver sucesad in becomiug mora than an ordivery elerk. It is almost an axiom that wo never earn o little but what wo mav save s little, and that is the real seerot of success, Doos tho workingman labor af:or hiours, or wonld be without oxira compoun- gation, nithough 1t wero understood ho would receivo the benofit in tho futuro? Xow difiicult it was, during tho time tho burnt district was 1ebuilding, to induco somo of theso vory men who are now cryiug *Down with tho capitalist!” to work hult o lioliday, though it might bo tholass of the build- ing to stop then, Is it that tho laborer doos not tako the mnterest in bLis work, that makes it hardor ? +'W'o do the loast he cau do is his motto; and how cau ho expect the meo for whom he works to bave sympathy or iuterest ‘in his wel- fure when he Lakes bo littlo In that of his cm- ployor?

'THE PAPER FOR THE FARMER, HECHANIC, MANUFACTURER, MERCHANT, DANKER, PROFESSIONAL MAN, 'AND TEHE FIRESIDE, PROSPECTUS FOR 1874, Tho coming yocar promises to be tho most event{nlin a political sonse that we have seon sinco tho closo of tho war, The questions which havo engrossed and divided tho public mind during tho past twenty years aro rapidly passing away, and we find growing up in differont parts of the country a party called by veri- ous names---in California the Indo- pendent party, in Iowa tho Anti. Monopoly party, in Wisconsin the Reform party, in Illinois the Farmers’ Movement---having o com= mon purposo and inspiration, and oxhibiting o strength which proves that it answers one of tho chiof de- mands of the hour, Thoe CHICAGO TRIBUNE will give a largoe share of its attention to this NEW MAN- IFESTATION OF PUBLIC SENTI- MENT., It holds: 1st. That tho old party orgamiza- tions are essentinlly corrupt and fraudulent. Having no longer any principles to carry into effoct, thoy have bocomo mere businoess enter- prises, meking a show of opposition to each other, but really sharing in tho proceeds of profligate and dis- honest logislation., To suppose that any healthful reform can flow from the pretended efforts of these worn- out and demoralized partnerships is altogether vain and illusory. 2d. That the teriff systeq now in vogue is o cunning dovice to rob tho many for the benefit of the few, and that its ofiect is to ocsuse fmrm pro- ducts to exchange for about one-half the quantity of foreign or * pro- tected” goods they would otherwise buy. 8d. That railroads cannot exact more than a fair rate of interest on the eepital actually invested in thom, and that when, in addition to this, they claim dividends on watered stock and {raudulent bonds, the State mey rightfully interfero for the protection of the people ; that unjust disoriminations between difforent localitios are in violation of law and should be prohibited, 4th. That subsidios or bounties of monoy, land, or public credit, to railway, steamship, or other corpo- rationB, are flagrant abuses of the powers of government, fraught with the grevest dangers to the pecople, and tending to promote corruption, extravagance, speculation, and finpneinl disaster. Tho general character of THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE is too well established to neoed recapitulation, 1t is always independent and foar- |, less in the expression of its views. Inits nows department it is socond to no paper in the United States. The Weekly Edition contrins a enre- fully prepared summary of the nows of the weelk, brought down to tho hour of going to proas, Titerary, political, financial, so- cial, and agricultural topics will constitute, as heretofore, leading features of the Weokly Edition, and no pains will bo spared to increase its attractiveness in these depart- monts. Its market reports are un- surpassed, embracing sll tho infor- mation which farmors requiro for tho intelligont transaction of busi- ness, both as sellers and buyers. THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE is o large oight-pngo shoet, of the samo size as tho Daily Tribuno, consisting of fifty-six colummns of closely- printed mattor, and, as a family newspeper and in its general make- up, is unsurpassod by any paper in the land.
