A llarien Organist in Defense of “ l’nI-lo
John."
DARIES. Conii.. Feb. 3. lSSi'i.
Messrs. Editor of Sentinel: Unfortu-
nately I am one of those whose lot has
been cast in among Chqull CllOll‘S. Hav-
ing occupied that not~to~be-envied posi-
tion of an organist. tints 1 can speak
from practical personal ixperience. I
was prompted to address you while read-
ing uCousin Jeremiah s ‘ reply to ”Uncle
John‘s" criticism on church choirs. I
read the article in question, and must
sav, if it was impartial. your choirs are
far above the average in their musical
attainments. ‘ ~
I trust such a terrible rebuke as was
administered by “Cousin Jeremiah“ will
not overwhelm and prevent us hearing
from “Uncle. John“ each week. as his
articlw are read here with a great deal
of pleasure. I think no fair~uiinded and
disinterested person an say but. what
“Uncle John.” in all his articles. is
earnest. conscientious, and very liberal-
minded, and I add my voice with other:
in our locality, whom I hear express
themselves, “I wish we had an ‘Uncle
Johti' among us.“ I think "Uncle John“
goes through the world with his e es
open. and I wouldn‘t. be surprised if is
heart wasn‘t the same also. If “Cousin
Jeremiah" wanted to exhibit his cousin-
ship to ttie choir in being their defense.
it seems as if the proper thing would
have been to show that the criticism of
"Uncle John“ was unjust: that the faults
pointed out did not. exist. instead of
using his cousinsliip as a pretense
through which to write a continuous
strain of satire. pointed personally at the
writer of the criticism. Had “Cousin
Jeremiah" first. disproved "Uncle John's“
comments and shown that the imper-
f'ections were only Iniaginings and did
not really 9 ist. he then would have been
warranted in giving "Uncle John" a
long-Do—be- emeuibered rebuke.
Fearing am trespassing too much. I
will close-gruy letter and ask you to please
assure "Uncle John“ that. hisiletters are
very acceptable to us here. d I hope
to see them in your columns e y Week.
and though "Cousin Jeremiah ends his
letter in a half-way threat fo “Uncle
John“ to be careful in the future I judge
from “Uncl. John‘s" writings ‘
abundantl well qualified to
himself. ghould he need a friend he can
find one here.

There is more than a little of this kind

stronger in its belief in the man and

The Providence Journal says:
The members of the Slater club. an
organization of manufacturers recently
formed. and representingn very large

who are to have executive authority in
any disputes that may arise with organ~
nations of labor or the operatives of any

It was natural and almost inevitable
that some such result should follow the
inception and growth of labor organ-
izations for the purpose of represen~
ting and enforcing the claims of opera—
lives. and. as we understand. was desired
by the labor organizations to the degree.
at least. of creating a representative
authority with which they could intelli-
gently confer in the interests of capital
and labor. The composition of the com~
uiittees of the Slater club represents the
very highest claim of intelligent and pro-
gressive manufacturers in this state. and
we have no doubt that they wrll be as
ready to h with wise and cordial
consideration all jilst China of the
working class. as to act with firmness
and decision in defending their own
interests. It cannot be too often re-
peated that the interests of labor and

The directors of the New York. New
Plath-fl and Hartford Railroad compnnv
held a meeting at Prestdent \Vatrous‘a
otlice in the Grand I‘etitral depot. New
York. Saturday. for the purpose of con-
sidering the proposals of the directors of
the New York and New England Rail-
road company to lease their road to the
.\‘ew York. New Haven and Hartford
ll-iilroad company for a term of years.
l‘resident \\'atroiis says:—~“\\'e spent
considerable tune in discussing and
considering the proposal of the commit-
tee appointed by the New York and
New England company to submit a plan
for leasing the r‘llt‘l to our company.
They Wished us to lease the road for a
; term of years and assume all the fixed
charges and agree to send fill the busi-‘
tti-ss we consistently could over their
. road. If. after the tired charges were
pziid. there was any money left. they
wanted its to pay a dividend on the pre-
ferred stock. and iii the event of there
being llli|llt‘_\' left after that they wanted
us- to pay ii dividend on the mtmmon
stock. lly Iixed charges it meant the
payment of the annual interest and
taxes. all animal rentals. and. in short.
all bills that occur in the material con.
! duct of business After considering the
tiiistter. we voted almost. unanimously
3 not to accept the proposition made. and
3 thus the matter rests. and in my judgs
iiient we shall bear no more at present
labour leasing the New York and New
England road. No one appeared before
the directors in the interest of the New
York and New England company.
although. of course. Mr. l‘lurk. the
president of the New York and New
England road. who is also a director in
our company. was present. I have not
been in favor of leasing the New York
and New England road. and can no no
reason whv I shall be likely to change
my views."

The Present Rage
[Liturll t‘::i:eu.}
Labor agitation is the present rage. It
crops out in different places and in dif—
ferent -occup:itions. The producing
l‘lifia‘i‘illtll‘t‘ become restless. and they
are likely to kill the goose which lays
their golden egg. if moderation and
wisdom do not guide their counsels.
t'apital withdraws itself from invest-
ments which are fraught with so much
trouble: and seeks fields in other states
and other countries. A brave man Is
he. who with a capital sufficient for the
enterprise. embarks in the cotton or the
shoe manufacturing businem in Mass-
achusetts: as the unwise and self-de-
structive course of labor in these two
conspicuous branchis of our industries,
has made both unpopular with those
who have money to use for the benefit
of their fellow men. and who are wrll-
big so to use it in that direction which
promises a fair return on the amount
invested. The labor agitators. who do
not labor. should receive a muzzling
treatment.

tion. .\‘0 magazine has made such im-
provement as has this old favorite in

practical of any of the ladies' magazines.

most fashionable. Special attention is
given to knitting and crochet. and all
varieties of fancy needlework. Mrs.

mirable department for housekeepers.

The schooner sunk off Milford in the
great January gale was floated on Satur~
day. and proved to be the Henry C.
Gibbs. of St. George. Me. as had for
some time been supposed. No bodies
were found in her. It will be remem-
bered that the man who first discovered
the vessel on the morning of the wreck
was sure there were men in the rigging.
The Gibbs was not at anchor when she
sank. ller sails had been lowered and
she was evidently scudding before the
gale at the time. The sailswere loose
and lying on deck.
