The trades unions will place ten or twelve can- didates in constituencies not contested by the inde- pendents, and the Social Democratic Federation will also contest a few seats. Altogether Mr. Hardie es- timates that not less than fifty candidates will go to the polls under the auspices of the united labor par- ties, and he considers that upward of half of them 1l have a fair chance of election. As to the programme of action after election, Mr. ardie says: “The principle of unity in the labor | “SAPHO” AT GRAND and “tk movement in all lands is socialism, and, since there is . ”::'x u""\l H_\'h»’ e no other possible, so it will be here. * * * The g d ect Mr. Cleveland' coming of socialism is already admitted.

On the other hand. mine-owners and railway companies, by their exor- bitant and vexatious charges, are bringing the na- tionalization of mines and railways well within the sphere of practical politics.” For the purpose of advancing socialism Mr. Hardie suggests that the labor representatives in Parliament form a group to themselves, ready to act at any given time with any party which will be most compliant to socialistic deman *The radicals in Par- hament, together with the Irish party, would prob- | ably find common ground of action with such a group, nd as a result there would be a fighting force of, | | say, 120.

The amendment was carried in North Carolina by | the activity of “red shirt” clubs and is therefore an outcome of violence rather than of reason. It is to be regarded as a partisan measure in the strictest sense. The object is to make the South solid for Democracy and as a result there will inevitably be a protest against it from the people of the North. In fact, that protest is already heard from various quar- ters, and when the time comes to apportion Represen- tatives under the census of this year it is certain ef- d gr hes.
