Workingmen Hold a Meeting at Keselor's To-Night. A damp day, in which & cold east wind and a chilling rain were the mort noticeable features, made yester- day an uneventful day among the _ | various parties interested in the mili- tary occupation of Omaha. The stars mnd stripes floated above the old church as they did above the military "headquarters, the sentinels passed their beats and the daily routine of camp life was unmarked by a single oxciting incident. It was noticeable that there were fewer visitors than on any preceding day and the usual evening dress parade and concert were dispensed with. During the forencom the officers of the First regiment, N. N. G., took carriages and drove to the new corral, where theSidney troops are in camp to pay their respects to the regular officers. In the afternoon the; made a trip to the barracks. At bot] laces they were treated in royally fiofipiuhlo style and were greatly pleased at their reoeption., There are numerous rumors of the early withdrawal of the troops and militia, but an inquiry among all concerned does not reveal any knowl. edge of the intention of the authorities in the matter of raising the seige. Very fow of themilitia men have gone home, and these on account of sick- ness only. A representative of each company was sent home for some fresh supplies and articles for making camp life more comfortable, and they have all returned, The workingmen held no meetin yesterday, the proposed evmgeliu‘i meeting at Jefferson square being abandoned on account of the woather. he workingmen will hold a meet- ing at Kessler's hall to-night.

OTHRRS STILL FIRM. ‘At the dump Baturday everye thing was quiet. The soldiers were mthered in aquads and the dangerous Fooking pickets promenading their several beats. The free passage of ple to and from the works was evi- s::my not interfered with, as people were passing over all parts of the grounds without molestation. The appearance of the camp has changed somewhat in the last few days; the picket fence around the old school house has been removed and in the rear a blast was being put in the level of the abrupt bluff so that the scrapers can work at that point, About twenty-four men including drivers were at work Saturday but several quit at noon as they had secured better situations at a better figure ; twelve teams were employed in scraping away the dirt from the steam shovel. More men and teams will be put on to-day, and the work will be pushed forward to completion, witilout reference to the Labor union. 8o say those who pretend to know. COMING TO THE FRONT. These contributions to the fund in the hands of the Omaha protective la- bor union, have been received from the workingmen of the U, P shops; cabinet makers, $79.50; painters, $46.25; building department, $20.50; old car shops, $78.60; Lincoln steel, $67.66; Phila. door n:j, $19.50: lumber yard, $44.75. Total, $347.05, THE GOLDEM AGE. At the Unitarian chapel the pastor, Rev. W. E. Copeland, delivered a forcible and eloquent address, which was most attentively listened tu by a fair audience. Among those present were several heavy contractors and labor employers, and also four or five of the most prominent members of the Protective labor union. The preacher l{;oke almost entirely extem- raneously, aithough he had before 1m a carefully prepared and very able manuscript sermon. His subject was, “‘The New Society, or Golden Age.” In beginning he said: The nations look back to some re- mote period in the past, as the golden age, when men lived peaceful and happy lives, in full communion with the gods, and in possession of powers long since lost. There were no wars, no poverty, no crime. Men were in paradise.© This heavenly condition was forfeited by their disobedience, and they were compelled ever after to suffer. There was an Eden away back in the twilight of time, whether in Asia, Africa, Europe or Amer- ica, I know not; but somewhere, and in that Eden there was peace, prosperity and happiness. There was sometime in the remote past a golden age, when humanity was yet well and strong, with all the vigor of youth; when there was'an abundance for all, obtained with but slight labor, when men were in close communication with heaven. Every tribe and every race has a tradition of such an age, from which they have into even harder and closer times. I do not think that the being compelled to earn one's bread by the sweat of one’s brow was any great hardship to be complained of, for man is the better for such work: but the living and working among briars and thistle and thorns rendered lite hard, and that had been the sad fate of humamty for many hundreds, if not thousands of years, All primitive peoples are far hap- rier than their descendants. They are ess civilized and poorer. Still they were delivered from that fierce com- petition which pushes men in modern times to exertion beyond their strength. No one reached a high level. There were food and clothing for all, and no anxiety about to- morrow, There was an unselfishness unknown in modern times. No one has any inducement to rob, and orimes growing out of attempts to rob are rare, curity, never known after the bulk of wealth has into the hands of Erinto individuals, instead of being eld in common. This peace could have but one explanation, and that the grim demon, competition, had not come to excite men, Com- refifion destroys co-operation, else here would have been no awakening from general stagoation. Competi- tion, which at first helped man and aroused him, has infested society with all evil class disvinctions and the jealousins aroused by them. This golden age conceived much of its fabled glory from its peculiar social condition and this was a communistic form. 1Tt is remarkable that the great religious teachers have insis on man's return to co-operation and com- munism, The kingdom of heaven, which Jesus commends is nothing more or less than a commune, When we study the history of religion and note its revivals and decadences we notioe that accompanying the religious movement is a social movement, Each wave of impulse toward personal holiness has been followed by a wave of impulse to social jus‘ice. Ger- man pietism, probably “the sweetest type of wpiritual life produced by modern christianity, has tended to- ward socialism, and our American commuaistic societies have been chief- ly the work of literal disciples of the azarene. In America, each wave of revivalism has been followed by a wave of socialism. After Nottleton, in 1817, came Robert Owen, in 1824; after Finney, in 1833, came the Fon- sierite enthusiasm in 1842. After the practical Moody has come the prac- tical co-overative efforts now being made. ‘Thie prophets and bards of all ages have expected and portrayed a golden age, when the lion and the lamb should lio down together. This wmay There is & peace and se-|f. dent of sociology knows that hamanity moves like the pendulum; that the race has swung very far out on the side of competition nntil much evil has accumulated. Now it must swing the other way Plato saw the vision of the golden age, and many of the souls of earth’s noblest thinkers have been cheered by the same vision, when, turning from the shadows lying eavily upon the world, they haye eaughi gight of the city of God com- ing down out of heaven—Utoyia, no- where yet on earth in outward form, but ip, spirit so long seen and striven for, that a rearrangement of the old elements may make it now here. Many hints would lead us to believe that the time is spproaching. Labor learning that in union there is strength. Small saviigs thrown to- wether, co-operative stores, manufac- turies, building societies, and co-oper- ative banks are making an appearance in the east and ought to be found in every town as large as ours, Co-operation is the strength of civ. ilization. Tt ing applied to agri- oulture in this state. It is by this that the farme-s are uni‘ing to eccury and utilize the broad lands opened before them. The carrent is setting strongly toward cooperation in all things. Tt is not to be supposed that all are not to be on an equal basis of property. But I dolook for a com- common propertywhich shall make less the great difference between the rich and poor. In the golden age this will be possible. Brain and hand must work together. A great deal of nonsense hns been talked in Omaha during the past two weeks on both sides. But one thing is certain. Arbitration must rule in- stead of violence, and compromisi stead of war should be the resort, Arbitration is the only method of solving labor Inboring men of England have learned this. Disputed questions can ouly be settled in this way, Another thing: Select wise leaders for labor move- ments. Every man able and willing to work is entitled to enough to secure the necessities of life and a little more, -Toward this end should be the tendency. Dishonest and laz; labor should be discouraged, for it compels honest labor to commit great wrongs. Co-operation will soon place labor where it can de- mand peaceful arbitration and get it. Goslow! Be content with gaining a little now. Nature works glowly in her great changes. Lot us be willing to sacrifice ourselves for our children. The noblest martyrs are those who live as sacrifices, instead of dying as ‘such. The great trouble of the times exists in the impatience of labor. Nor is it to be woindered at. But a great dhange canoot come at once. It takes ages to accomplish great social revo- lutions. Much has thus far been said t the workingmen, because they are the ones dissatisfied. Competition suits the employer. He wants no change, But he must remember that competition must inevitably yield to co-operation, and it will depend upon him whether this change come gradu- ally or in some grand convulsion. It can come as the roft creeping and gentle dawn, or as the bursting vol- cano. The reading of the signs of the times tells me that the golden age is coming. Godgrant that it may be like the gentlo spring, not with some mighty convulsion. 1t should be the earnest purpose of all to guide this stream into smooth channels. Let us come together when we are cool and think what is best to be done, in order to unite capital and labor to- gethor harmoniously. By a kindly earing together by the best men on both sides we can come to an agree- ment, Workingmen shonld remem- ber these two great principles which should inaugurate the golden age Kindly agitation and co-operation. THE REV. JOHN WILLIAMS.: At St. Barnabus church last night the rector, Rev. John Williams, preached on ‘‘The Cause of and Rem- edy for Strikes.” In opening he stated that there were two errors into which clergymen were liable to fall, in re- gard to this subject; one was, making it a sensational matter and attempting to gain notoriety by preaching in a popular vein, whether the subject properly belonged to them for discus- sion or not; the other, that of care- fully avoiding the whole matter, on the ground that ther may offsnd somo one and that asa clergyman he has nothing directly to do with public af- airs, Both are equally responsible who are iu power, Let corporate and pri- vate employers remember this; lot the the universal brotherhood as Ohrist has !lugll’lt it be recognized and acted upon by those in position, and you will have a surer guarantee against mob violence and discords than can be secured by cannons and bayc- nots, and let both capital and labor act upon the principle of common benefit and also upon the higher ground of Christian principle, and teach the obligation they owe each other, which are justice, faithfulness, and brotherhood. And while he would carc' ully consid- or all questions betwecn man and man he thinks that the sympathy of all should be with the oppressed, with the many men who should have their children fed and clothed and educated rather than with the man who would add largely to what was nlrendi a competence. He spoke very pathet- ically of the eondition of the home of the poor man when misfortune, sick- ness or death enters and deprives him of the chance or ability to labor or adds to his expense a doctor or un- dertaker’s bill, and thought that every thoughtful, generous man would agree with him that it would be better for society at large if working people were paid genercus wages. Well paid labor will insure social order and stability, while half-starved unpaid labor will always be a mine ready to be exploded whenever chance or some reckless demagogue applies the spark, and will be ripe for revolu- tion or rict or disorder if some reck- less leader appears to urge them on- ard, They will be ready to listen to ny glib-tongued and sympathizing orator who urges them to any socialis- tic or communistic movement that may appear to be to their advantage. In times of public hardships they not be literal, but surely when capital and labor come to work together in the proph ill ha Rutliod.” Biyhy "langh "at° thoon droams, and insist that socialism would beget anarchy, But every stu. are ripe for any mischief, and under the leadership of bad men, honest men can be converted into a howling mob, fierce and desperate as the howl- ing digers of the jungle, and there is no course left but an appeal to arms for the the protection of social order and public safety. Labor and capital ought to be friends, not enemies, as they are mu- tually and equally dependent upon each other, and the safety and value of each dependsupon the friendship and good will of the other. Instead of this, there is distrust and emnity, and what is the cause? Tt is the inherent selfishness of human na. ture, and pervades especially the wealthiest classes. Every man or combination of men have a right to strike for higher wages, but he or they have no right to prevent any other man from work- ing for whatever wages he may choose, as that right is the foundation of all law and social order. The trouble with strikes is that they often devolop into riots or or- ganize mobd, and destroy life or property. It is the duty of laboring men to organize unions, and combine to protect themselves from the grasp- ing selfishness of capital, and to unite to a man for making just and reason- able demandsfor labor, If they stand by each other they are sure to be the gainers and to establish a reasonable compensation for their services; but if they will notstand and work together some will always be found to work for less, and in such cases labor unions are powerless to enforce their de- mands, Selfish capital will cut down the price of labor to the lowest possible figuro when times are close and hard, but will always raise it again when times get better and provisions and other necessaies of life are higher, difficulties, and the|P unless the stand is taken by the workingmen to enforce their just de- . | mands, As a matter of natural consequence the cities will become more densely populated and the country more thickly settled, and in this ratio will poverty become prevalent, and the unemployed will look with hostile eyes on the hoarded wealth which they have helped its owners to accu- mu{nta without having received a just recompense for their share in prodnec- tion. Then if we do not have a dis- ciplined force in every great center of population to maintain law and order with a strong hand, the iron age of American freedom will come, and with it the test of republican institutions, and the only remedy, the only means of averting this conflict, is by culti- vating the friendship which should exist between capital and labor with the aid of honest, earnest christianity. When men resort to mob violence and riot and disorder the law and the public safety must be preserved at all hazards, and it is only merciful, not cruel, as otherwise we would all go down in one common ruin; but the fault should be placed where it be- longe, and I would hold the men whose hard, cruel meanness had maddened A CARD. I wish to inform the ocitizens of Omaha that the lathers of this city are not on a strike as has been erroneous- ly supposed. About two weeks ago they organized a union and asked the masons to give them three cents per yard for Jathing which they readily and cheerfully did, and which is grate- fully appreciated by the lathers, D.

P. Brown, formerly of Colorado, has come to Omaha to open up a first- ¢ ass dry goods store, and he has now got things in fair shape, so that he will hold his grand opening on Tues day evening next. A casual examination of the stock showed it to be remarkably fine, well selected, and shows great taste on the part of the proprietor. As this is the only dry goods storefor blocks around, and is in a central and thickly settled location, it is bound to win patrons from the start. We advise the ladies not to fail to be present Tuesday night at the grand opening. cdad THE GRAND ARMY. The List of New Posts and the Rapid Growth of the Order. The work of organizing posts of the Grand Army of the Republic through- out Nebraska goes on activelv and this state probably can show upa bettor working forco and more live posts than any of twice the size in the Union.

No. 92 will go into commission on the 20th at Minden, Applications are in for charters which if granted will swell the num- ber of posts in this state to over one hundred, Gen., Merrill, the national com- mander of the G. A, R, will return from the west on the Denver train Wednesday morning and proceed to Leavenworth, returning to Lincoln in time for the reception to be tendered him as noticed yesterday. s 2 d b < Card of Thanks.
