All other cities in the Union have natatoriums. St. Louis has three.

The questions which ari:e are whether flour brought i 4 r manufactured in it not for sal ment to other localities, is spected here, and if it is not. whether the own- er or manufacture becomes subjected to pen alties.” They say: It seems to us both ques- i should be answered inthe negative. 1. he inspection required is of every barrel and half barrel of flour manufactured in the Dis- | trict, or brought to the saine for sale—not out- side the District, but init. Itis not all flour which m be inspected, but only that in- tended for sale within the District.” 2. Hence the penalty is against flour, not examined and branded, which may be sold within the Dis. trict. If not sold within its limits, no penalty can arise or be enforced. But flour sent out of the District—transported from it, for sale elsewhere, cannot be regarded as “‘sotd in” it. 3. Besides the act is sanitary inits class. Tis true intent is not to give fees or Compensation toan officer, but to protect the citizens from the use of bad or improper food or flour. Other cities have their own inspectors and regula tions: the law is therefore in its nature of limited and local application. To hold othe: wise would subject flour, not designed for s; here, subj et to inspection at any other loc: ites to which it might be shipped; in fact to repeated inspeetions which would be both use. less and unjust to both manu mt ners having di tured in the Di by the aet of ve sent the paper to their pinion as to the law in the » Distri missioners, the y in the District have been sold for the ensuing years by Messrs.

THE WORKINGMEN’S ASSEMBLY met last night, Alfred Thomas in the chair and George E. Taylor, secretary. The Typographical Union forwarded the credentials of J. Malo- | ney, S. Haldeman, O.H. Beli and C. Danen- hower, upon which a favorable report was made‘and the gentlemen named were duly Upon the applications of Isaac Co- . Spear, James Lingerfelter and H. A. Faris, filed some time ago for membership, Mr. Spier, from the committee on organiza- tion, made a report unanimously agreed to by the committee. It states that the constitution of the assembly provides that no deiezate shall be admitted except they come duly accredited from a regular and ‘Prematent organized body of workingmen. We cannot recognize the Workingmen's Relief Association as a regular and permanent organization, and haye baved this decision upon the following facts: Tho Workingmen’s Relief Association has never met ina hall or a similar suitable place, their meetings being held at the street-corners; the insufficiency of this measure will be seen by future statements. The request of your com mittee to meet usin a hall was answered by the president of the association that this would be au unnecessary performance. Mr. Cohen states that he will leave this city in the near future, and that in this case the meetings will be discontinued, and, asa logical consequence. an association without meetings becomes de funct. Now, we hold that a public meeting at a street-corner, where everybody is admitted asa member upon giving his name, can never transact business in a satisfactory mauner, and the true wants of the association will never reach the surface. The com. mittee has reason to believe that Mr. Co hen is the sole and independent. busi- ness manager of that association. The minutes of their meetings show a peculiar uniformity, a3 nearly all the business has been transacted unanimously. To iilustrate the transactions of said association, a peculiar feature is noticeable—their delegates being not at all representative men. The associa- tion, as it appears upon the books, consists of 2U7 members, of which about 2”) are laborers, the other seven being craftsmen, the latte: being representatives, either as officers o: delegates.

The platform recites want of harmony, in both the republican and democratic parties on the questions of finance; denounces as a crime the making of the greenback only a partial legal-tender: demands that the government shall issue a full legal-tender paper money adequate in yolume for the employment of labor, the distribution of its produce?s, re- quirements of business, and for the payment of all interest-bearing bonds as fast ‘as re. deemable, the withdr ancelation of all bank notes design ate as cir.

FOUR NATIONAL NOMINATIONS—REPUBLICAN REPRESENTATIVES TO BE RENOMINATED. A special dispatch to the New York Times from Detroit says: The fourth Congressional nomination of the national party in this state was made yesterday at Port Huron for the 7th district, now represented by Mr. Conger. The convention was ouly attended by 10 delegates, representing only two out of the six counties, and on the first ballot it selected C. F. Mallory, a merchant of Romeo, formerly a republican, and a man who has had some legislative expe- rience. It is not a strong selection, but insures atriangular fight in that district. The other national nominees for Congress are John Datv- son, a Barey county farmer, of ultra-demo- cratic antecedents, in the 3d district; H. H. Hoyt, a glib Saginaw lawyer, who wasa repub- lican member of the last legislature, in the 8th, and L. H. Thomas, an ink manufacturer at Reading, and last spring a vepublican and a hard-money man, in the 2d. The only re- publican nominations yet made are those of Representative McGowan, renominated, glass Jewi 5 in the 3d_ district, and Roswelll G. Horr, a Saginaw lumberman, nominated on the 15th ballot last week in the Sth distri Representative Ellsworth declined to ber nominated, and the contest lay between M Horr, auditor general; Ralph Ely and H. M Loud, leading the luinbermen of the Lake Huron shore. Some local ill feeling has fol- lowed the vietory of the Saginaw candidate, but it will undoubtedly abaie. Ail the present indications point to the renomination, without opposition, of Representatives Williis, Brewer, Stone and Hubbell. Tn the 4th district there i a close contest between Representativ Keightley and ex-Congressman J.C. Burrows, with present chances rather favo ter. ‘There is also some local resistance to Mr. Conger’s renomination fora sixth term, but there is no present probability that it will win. Only one democratic congressional nomina. tion has yet been made—that of Mayor Brad- ley M. Thompson, in the 8th district. ‘The indi. cations all point to the renomination of Repr Sentative Williams by that party in this dis- rict.
