The Wo'rkingman’s Friend.
Senators Gorman and Voorhees will
receive very little support from conser: .
vative public sentiment in their oppo-
sition to the Ricks decision, says the
Washington Post. Neither Judge
' Ricks nor any other judicial oflicer in
this country has ever taken the posi—
tion that an employee stands in the re-
lation of an enlisted soldier or seaman.
There has been no attempt to bind the
horny-handed son of toll to the wheel
of tyranny or any other manifestation
of similar nonsense. Messrs. Gorman
and Voorhees must have dreamed it.
The proposition laid down by Judge
Ricks is perfectly simple and intelli-
gible, It is to the efi'ect that men who
have contracted to do certain things
must be treated as responsible human
beings, not as children, and that they
cannot, through malice or caprice, re-
pudiate their obligations at a time
when such repudiation might involve
loss of property and life. In a wOrd, it
puts the workingman just where their
employers are put and makes them sub-
ject to the same accountability. There
is not so much as ahint in the direction
of oppression and enslavement. On
the contrary, the proposition involved
in Judge Ricks’ ruling simply tends to
release employers and corporations
from the slavery to which they have
been too long subjected, giving them
some rights which labor organizations
will be bound to respect and offering
them a modicum of protection against
the agitator and the mob.
The fact is that Judge Ricks has
shown himself to be the honest work-
ingman’s best friend. The latter has
been the victim 'of the walking delegate
and the salaried boss, subject to the
loss of his occupation and his livlihood
at their dictation, and never secure
from any one day to another in the
privilege of earning his living and sup-
porting his family by honorable toil.
There is in Russia no tyranny as ignor-
ant and as cruel as that under which
both the laborer and his employer have
languished at the hands of labor Of-
ficials. “Thousands of prosperous arti-'
sans could be thrown into idleness and
privation without a moment’s notice,
and untold milllullS of commerce and
industry jeopardiZed by the lifting of
one vicious and irresponsible finger.
Men who were contented and happy in
their work, who had no fault to find
with their circumstances, could be re-
duced from comfort to penury because
some conclave of the bOsses ordered it.
Railroad corporations which had no
quarrel with organized labor could be
condemned to serious loss, if not to ac-
tual paralysis,because the board of del-
egates wished to wage war upon some
corporation in another part of the coun-
try. ~ .
Judge Ricks was right whEn he ex~
posed and denounced this pestiferous
form of conspiracy. He spoke alike
for the capitalist and the laborer, for
Justice and for civilization,when he de-
clared that it should be suppressed by
every agency at the disposal of society.
What About Tariff Reform ?’
In a recent interview at New Or-
leans, says the Washington Post, 001.
William R. Morrison states with much
explicitness that tariff reform under ex-
isting circumstances will not permit of
tanifi' reduction. The horizontal plan
that he proposed some years ago, he
~says, is “improbable and would be un-
2.; wise” at this time, whatever it may
have been then ; nor can there be any
material reduction on any lines so long
as the Government has to depend on
its customs revenues for support. Col.
Morrison also predicts that a tax of
some sort will be re-imposed on sugar.
In other words, the burdens under which
the people have been groaning so long
and from which the Democratic party
has repeatedly given solemn pledges
to relieve them, will not only have to
be borne for an indefinite period yet,
but in all likelihood will have to be in-
creased. . : , ~
g It is in this direction that the logic
of the situation appears to point. The
burden of supporting the Government
cannot be evaded, and the burden- is
bound to become heavier so long as
the expenses of the Government, in-
stead of being retrenched, grow larger
year by year.
Thus the dream of free trade goes
glimmering out of sight, and the bur-
dens of tarifi' taxation loom more por-
tentously than 'ever.‘ The luxury of
being abillion dollar country has got
to be paid for and a tariff for revenue
only has come to mean a higher tarifi‘
and more of it.

The popular and well-known Thomas
.A. Lindsay, who is connected with Al-
bany’s (N. Y.) leading morning paper,
the Albany Express, makes an inter-
esting revelation.
Everybody connected with the news-
paper has known of the facts for some
time, and can vouch for their truth in
ever particular.
“ or many years,” said Mr. Lind-
say, “I have been subject to severe
spells of headache and nervousness, at
times almost enough to drive a. man to
insanity from pain, loss of sleep, etc.
“Medicines, narcotics, patent and
prescribed, did not give relief, and the
ailment increased continually. Having
read in the Albany Morning Express,
at different times, _the advertisements
of Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and
nerve remedy, I concluded to try this
remedy, and after the use of six or
seven bottles, found not only relief,
but almost a radical cure.
“The headaches are a thing of the
past, while the terrible nervous spells
have gradually become less and less
until now I have little or none of them
left and my sleep is natural and refresh-
mg.
“I do not hesitate in saying that this
remarkable change is entirely due to
Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, and I heartily recommend it
for ailments like my own, no matter
the cause of them. ”
It is a fact that our great business
and professronal men are fast finding
out the wonderful invigorating and
strength-glvmg powers of this most
valuable discovery, Dr. Greene’s Ner-
vura. blood and nerve remedy. It is the
medicine for the weak and nervous. It
restores health to the sick. , nil m
Its remarkable cure of Mr. Linds'av,
after everything else had failed, makes
another conspicuous person, restored
to health by its use, to add to the long
and constantly-increasing list of prom-
inent and well~known. people who are
almost daily publishing in the papers
statements of their cures by this grand
medicine.
It is beyond all question the greatest
cuter of disease known‘ at the present
day, and is the very best spring medi-
cine for blood and nerves. ‘ Everybody
needs a spring medicine. and this is
just the remedy to take. It is purely
vegetable and harmless, and is sold by
druggists for $1. -
This great remedy is the discovery
and prescription of the famous physi-
cian, Dr. Greene, of 35 W. 14th Street,
New_ York. who is the most successful
specialist in curing nervous and
chronic diseases in this. country. We
would add that the doctor can be con-
sulted free, personally or by letter.

A_ bill was received from the board of
relief for $120 for servrces. The bill
was just double the amount usually al-
lowed for such services, but the board
stated that they had done double the
usual amount of work. After consid-
erable discussion Burgess Chinery
moved that the claim be referred to
the committee on finance, with power.
It was finally voted that it be referred
to the chairman of the committee on
lightsa Burgess McMullen.
A blll for $400 was received from
Samuel Tweedy, of Danbury, for ser-

chairman of the finance committee,

A bill was received from Mrs. Hall
for-$486 for injuries received by a fall
on a defective sidewalk in front of the

.the attendance _of physician and nurse
and expenses incurred. The matter
was referred to the borough attorney.
The subject .of a city charter was
touched upon. Clerk Hubbell stated
that he presented the same to the legis-
lative committee at Hartford and was
told that no action would be taken on
the same until the full text of the char-
ter had been published in a. newspaper. -
The Borough clerk was instructed to
have the same printed and to award
the printing of the same to the lowest
bidder.
The matter of paving the space on
Mam street between the horse railway
tracks was broached but no action
taken on the same. It was stated that
the Borough had on; hand about 3,000
gran1te_blo_cks, and that to complete
the paying it would require about 4,000
morje at a cost of about $50 per thou-
san . -
On motion of Burgess Chinery the
chairman of the finance committee was
instructed to borrow $1,000 on the
credit of the Borough. '
