The Charge That He is an Enemy to Labor Denied by Chief Clerk Benedict. A dispatch from Syracuse, New York, in 9 morning paper states that at the coming con- vention in that city of the political branch of the state workingmen’s trades assembly, the ap- pointment of Mr. Benedict, the deputy state controller as public printer, will be canvassed. It is predicted by the same authority that the labor organizations will unite in opposing the confirmation of Mr. Benedict on the ground that his record in the New York assembly trom 1880 until 1883 shows that he is an enemy of organized Inbor. In proof of this it is main- lalned that the record shows that Mr. Benedict has always voted for perpetuation of the con- viet labor system in the prisons of the state; that he voted in 1883 aguinst the proposition to submit the question to the people, and in the same year voted against the bill to establish state printing office, a similar establishment to the one in tuls city, though on a smaller scale. Au effort will aiso be made, it Is stated, In this dispatch to prove that Mr. Benedict is not a practical printer and to oppose bis confirma Uon on that ground. Mr. Benedict is not in the city at present, as he will not assume the duties of his new office until about the 15th of September, but the at- tention of huis brother, who was recentiy ap. pointed chiet clerk of the Government Printing Otiice, was culled this morning by a STAR re- porter to the statements ubove referredto. Mr. nedict at once said that he could not speak for bis brother, and prelerred that such matters should be reterred to bine, He, however, glanced over the newspaper cutting, and re- marked: “ILseems to me that this whole thing Is en- Urely without foundation in tact, Ofcourse I am not familiar with all my brother's acts while in the assembly, but in general I can say. that he is now und has been a firm friend of labor organizations, and in tavor of doing what he could w advance thelr interests. Asfarax the specific bills referred toure concerned I knowthat my brother's action would be determined by What in his judgment be thought were the merits Ineach case. As you know, many Il ‘cousidered Uills are introduced into legislative Uodies ostensibly to benefit labor, bu the ad- vantages of which are sometimes Very few, and in many cases exist only fu che imaginations of the promoters of the measures. 1 know that my brother {s on triendly terms with the ty po- graphical union in Albany, and tuat upon one occasion Which I recali he diitered with bis suc- cessor in the awembiy because be Lad voted against abolishing convict labor.” “There is unother point mentioned,” contin- ued Mr, Benedict, “and that is that my brother 4s nots practical priuter. ‘The law on this sub- Ject was thorousbly looked up by the law otfi- cer of the government at the request of the President beture his uppolutient was decided upon and it was found that my brother was ell- gible under the law.
