"Has General llutler cvcr bencf‘ittedtlu-
workingnicn of this country '.' “ that is
tin-question which we propose to answer.
Some time ago Mr. J. M. I‘llleiidorf
ventured to cxprcss an opinion that Mr.
Butler was not the workinguien‘s friend.
and gave his reasons therefor. Mr. Ilut-
lcr promptly contradicted him and called
Mr. Ellciidorf “simply a liar“ who lies
against truth and knowledge. its—lie
adds—these things Were truly told Mr.
Ellendorf by I‘iof. Tooliev. Secretary of
the Iloston batters. \\'hat these "things“
that Mr. Tooliey “truly" told were. and
whether they show Mr. Butler the friend
or the enemy of the workingmen. let
every one judge for himself. It is satis-
factory to know that General Butler
endorses in advance Prof. Tooliey‘s
statements about his conduct as Gover-
nor of Massechiisetta. in regard to the
“only labor hill“ ever presented to him.
as “true“ and reliable.
Mr. Butler was elected Governor by a
combination of all the labor organiza-
tions in the bay state. who defeated the
Re iublican rty in its rincipal strong-
ho d. In iecoming the candidate of
these great bodies. he ilcdged himself to
their platforms each of which contained
a plank “demanding the abolition of the
contract system 'in the prisons of the
state. asinjuriously affecting the honest
labor of skilled mechanics." or words to
that affect. It was therefore expected
of him. to act favorably upon any just
and lawful measure in the interest of
workingmcn. that might come before
him for his official aid and sup rt. The
bill to reduce the number 0 convicts
working at any trade in prison to five
per cent. of the number of mechanics
emplo ed in the same industry in the
state. nown as House Bill 225, was the
first measure distinctly in the interest. of
labor. introduced in the Massachusetts
Legislature. While it was still pending
in the Senate. rumors were current that
Waring & 00.. who were then making
about 250 down hats per day in Concord
prison. might obtain a new contract.
unless steps were taken to prevent it.
I’rof. Toohey was instructed y the offi-
cers of this committee—he being our
accredited agent at Boston—to lice his
eye open on Waring and Governor ut-
lerso that no new contract should be
made without the batters having an op-
portunity to remonstrate.
. Mr. Toobey at once went to Concord
prOiIson and interviewed the Warden.
‘ onel Usher. Governor Butler‘s close
and personal friend. Mr. Toohe writes
as follows on larch 28th. 1 “The
"Warden is all correct. and when 1 spoke
“of extending the \Variug contract.
“emphatically said: I shall inform Hr.
“Waring. that the person to see is the
‘Kloveruor. for l sba t know no oontrac~
“tor in the" bat department after the
"present contracts expire. unless they
“are renewed.“ Colonel Usher. in less
than a fnonth after. showed himself our
bits-inst enemy and remained so
throughout. In his report to the Brook—

Pro . 'Iloohey reiterates what he had
expressed before, in a letter dated Hay
ad. that “all I can say of. Butler at
“present. is that Mr. Usher. the Warden.
is his particular friend and “Butler dose
not want any trouble for him. all the
more as Butler himself has all the criti~'
cism he cares for." This charges the
Governor with favoritism to personal
friends and official cowardice. and all
those statements about the Governor‘s
coldness to us and his aversion to give
trouble to his friend Usher by a change
in the contract system made us fear that
some misfortune was impending.
On May 14th Mr. Toohey sent on a
copy of Senator Parker‘s great speech in
the Senate. published in full in the Bos~
ton pers. No more eloquent and con-
vincmg argument against convict. con-
tract Labor in general and the Ilatting
contract and its pernicious influence on
batting in Massachusetts. was ever made.
This great speech. together with the ma-
ny previous on the subject. with which
Governor Butler was well acquainted.
disposes of his foolish and self-damn ing
plea : “that Col. Usher informed rim
that thebafs made in prison were dil-
ferent from any made in the State.“
\\'as Colonel Usher good autliorilyon
such a question ? Senator Parker‘s speech
reassured us somewhat ; we thought it
impossible that. after so plain an argu-
them there could be. a renewal of the
contract. Yet I'rof. Tooliey in his letter
of the same date seems to foreshadow
the coming event. for he again prepares
us by alluding to Governor Butler‘s dis-
inclination to help us by saying :
“In the outset you and the friends in
"Connecticut will have to remember
“that Butler has got it very complicated
“job on hand and I fear more irons in
“the fire. than he. can tilit‘l’lll to and
“keep them all from burning.“
Nov 13th. Prof. Toohey informs us
that \\‘aring has succeeded in getting
the \Vardens and Commissioners to grant
him a new contract. He adds however:
"Whatever \\'aring may have done. I
"know from conversation with the
“prison Commissioners that there can
“be no renewal or extension without the
“consent and approval of the Governor
“and Council and that I have every rea-
“son to believe this cannot and has not
“been had.“ .
Our amended bill. limiting any prison
contract to 1.30 men. was then Within a
week of its passage. If \\'aring gota
new contract. which could not com~
nicncc to run until the old one expired
on Juno lid. it was of the utmost import-
ance to all the batters. that the new coir
tract should come under the provisions
of the new law. ins \\'aring was then
employing 330 men. to say nothiiigof
machines. In one of his letters Mr.
'l‘ooliey estimates his actual working
force at too. If the Governor andt‘oun-
cil refused to approve of the new con~
tract. until the bill had passed the Set»
ale we were sau‘d. if not. everything
was lost. \\'c still had some hope. that
Governor Iiiitler. elected by the vote of
the working classes of the state. would
now take a stand in our favor. and rc-
fiisc to sign the contract. to which his
signature was necessary. llut I‘rof.
‘oohcy‘s letter of May ‘J‘Jd put an cud to

view with “the champion of the work-
iugiiicii.“ l‘iider date of .‘IIIY tiltli~four
days after being iiiforim d that liiitlcr
had signed IIIt' contract ~— he writes:
“Now for the (lineriior. I saw him. and
“when I coiiiiiiciiccd to vindicate the
“original bill. be informed me that it
"was a very small percentage and Ili‘
“had doubts wlicthor it would stand lll

“thing in their interest. Before I got
“my thoughts completed. he iliiitlerl
"said 'be would be pleased to hear me

“etc. Of course. I took my hat and left.
“I made a second attempt- waited over
“an hour. my card being the first to go
“in—hut. got no word or sign from the
“Governor. So I have fixed on the
“thought that he is not in sympathy
"with a change in the management of
“the prison, because his friend (t‘ol.
"Usherl is warden. and Governor But—
“lcr‘s hands are too full to help him. if
any radical change should come.“
No more contemptuous snub has ever
been offered to a representative of tlioii-
sands of men. as l‘rof. Tooliey certainly
was; no worse ingratitude toward a
duped constituency has ever been known
in the history of the worst demagogue
than the peremptory refusal of this so~
called “friend“ of workingmen to listen
even to their grievances.
On May Slat. one bill passed and went
to the Governor for his signature. The
Governor has five days to approve or rc~
ject a bill; if. at the end of that time he
has not acted. the bill is a law without.
On June 3d he had not signed it. though
Prof. Toohey writes that be said he
would do so. Ilaving approved the con-
tract. it. made not the slightest difference
whether he did or not. because Governor
Butler had no intention of enforcmg the
law in the case. But Mr. Ellendorf was
informed by Prof. Toobey. on his ar-
rival in Boston. June 18th. that our bill
was not signed b Governor Butler
within the constitutzinal period and bad
therefore “lapsed" into a law. Indeed.
we never knew of the law in Massachu-
setts regarding the Governor‘s action on
bills. until informed of it h Prof. Tooboy
in connection with our bi I. lie said to
Mr. Ellendorf. on his arrival: “You will
“be glad to know that our bill is now a
“law.“ On Mr. Elleudorf‘s saying: “Then
“the Governor has signed it. at last.“
“Prof. Toohey answered. No. he did not
“sign it, but it ‘lapscd‘ into a law.“ and
then he explained about the five days
limitation. To this Mr. Ellcndorf is pre-
red to make oath. When asked at the
rooklyn convention why the Governor
did not sign our bill. Prof. Toohey an-
swer’ed. in the garrison” of Mr. Edward
C. Johnson. of uth Norwalk. who is
prepared to make an affidavit. to that
effect: “I do not know: I cannot imag-
ine what hi9 reason‘s were." or words to
that sflect. In his official report. Sep-
csmber 17th. 1888. Prof. Why does not
state that the Governor had signed it.
If he ever did at it. and he nus he did.
it was after the imitation had expired.

"his friend. su ~ sinks

“p mm to work or Waring. Not
"that he is interested in Waring. but
"simply that there is nothing in the
“prison at present, on which the cou-
“victs can be concentrated except hat-
“ting and his time and mind are too
“fully occupied with other matters to
“make it. convenient to reconstruct
"prison labor.” Prof. Toohey supple-
mented this statement on Mr. Ellendorf‘s
coming to Boston by saying tohirn' "that
“from the Governor‘s remarks there
“could be no doubt that we would not
"only bavc’AVaring‘s contract number.
“but every unemployed prisoner work-
“ing at batting against us. unless we
“succeed with the Governor and Council
“at the hearing.“
This bearing came off June 14th. 1883.
Prof. Toobe ' and Mr. Ellendorf pleaded
before the ouncil and Governor Butler
to the best of their ability. but. to no
purpose. They alludedto the existing law
and claimed its benefits. They showed
the in jury done by the contract. and if
the Governor. instead of being the friend
of the workingmen. had not been their
enemy. he would have at least entered a
protest against the continuing of the
contract. and caused the fact of that
protest to be made public in his own
vindication. He did not. and it is not
pretended by any one. not even by him-
self. that he ever even raised his voice
against what senators and representa-
tives in their seats in the state house de-
nounccd “asaprice of iniquity and a
contempt for the lawvmaking power of
the state. which ought never to have
Ilt'i‘ll pi‘riiiiltcd.“
The Governor and Council having dc~
ciilcd July ‘ldth. to stand by the contract.
our campaign in Massachusetts for that
year was over. We had obtained a
favorable law from a Republican legislii~
titre. who. without pretending to be
friendly. was at least just and would
have had a much better one. if it had
not been for the open and shameless lob—
bying of t‘ol. I'sher. the Governor‘s par-
ticular friend. \\'e had also saddled upon
us by Governor Butler a contract in
favor of a most odious monopoly.
Governor Butler deciding to run
again for the office he held. Ilt‘hllnlll‘tl
the state last fall. At (‘lit-lsea. on Oct.
31st. 15““. he made a speech. which alone
is sufficient to show the man in his true
light as the downright l‘IIt'IIIy of the
working classes. No paid advocate of
contract labor could speak more plainly
in favor of this outrageous system than
did Governor llutlcr then and there. The
followuig arc I‘rof. 'I‘oohcy's notes of
that part of the speech referring to con»
tract convict labor:
