C., A8 SKOQgD -CLASS Ml.TTXH.1 FRIDAY. OCT. 12, 1883. A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIREC TION. A National Co Operative Workmen's Union has been organized in New York, the object of which is to assist working people to purchase the necessaries of life more cheaply and to own their own homes. It is proposed to form Unions of a thousand working people, each member to pay $100 in weekly instal ments of 25 cents each. With the $1,000 raised the first month groceries will be bought and sold to the members of the Union at cost. In addition to this other branches of trade will be estab lished at which members may purchase anything they need. Desirable houses that can be purchased to advantage will be bought, rented to members at a rent sufficient to pay six per cent, on the purchase price, and when an amount of rent has been paid equivalent to the cost of the house a deed will be made to the renter who becomes the owner of the property. The first Union form ed has already 100 members and much interest in the subject is being mani fested by the working people. There is mueh to be gained by this movement if properly directed and carried out with care and system, and if the working men will deposit the small sum required weekly, which any of them can do, and not feel it, this Union will grow and become a stroDg organization for mutual benefit. Non only the working men but their employers, and other men of large means, ought to take a lively interest in the success of this movement and help it along with a cheerful aid. It is to the interest of the employers that their employees should prosper, because the more prosperous they are the better contented they are, and the better con tented they are the more cheerfully and the more effectively they labor and the better service they render. There would be less complaint, fewer strikes and less disarrangement of business, which sometimes entail Buch heavy loss on both employer and working men. Such an organization, properly managed, is better than a savings bank for not only the interest but the capital is used for the benefit of the members, while the reduced prices at which they will be enabled to purchase the necessaries of life will enable them to live at much less cost and far more comfortably. This is one of the movements in the way of practical reform which has our heartiest wishes for success. THE RESULT IN OHIO. We have not yet sufficient details from the election in Ohio to take a com prehensive view of the situation, but we know that the Democrats have won a much more signal victory than we had reason to hope for, in view of the political complications in that State, and the discord that prevailed in certain localities within the Democratic lines. With the dissatisfaction expressed by some of the Democrats at the nomina: tion of Hoadly, and the wrangles be tween the factions in Hamilton county, disaster, was foreboded, and it would not have been surprising. When we consider how tenaciously that State has clung to the Republican party during and ever since the war, we can form some conception of the work the Dem ocrats had before them, and the bril liancy of the victory which they have just won. The following figures give the result of the elections held in that State in the last twelve years: Bep. Dem. 1871 For Governor 20J68 J!. 1872 For President 37,531 1873 For Governor : 817 1874 For Secretary of State 17,202 1875 For Governor 5,544 1876 For President 7,516 1877 For Governor 22 520 1878 For Secretary of State 3,1 54 .... 1879 For Governor .17,120 1880 For President 25,155 1882 For Governor 24,809 1882 For Secretary of Siate 19,115 It will be seen that the Democrats were successful only four times within these twelve years, and electing a Gov ernor but twice within that period, once by the small majority of 817. The turning tide in politics was when the Republicans became involved in sumptuary legislation, which gave offense to many who had previously acted with it and drove the form an voters almost in a body over to the democrats, resulting last year in the election of a Democratic Secretary of State by a majority of 19,155. The Re publican managers consoled themselves with the hope that this German dAfpp.. tion was simply temporary, and that tuojr wuuiu vume uaca: 10 me party, but in this they have been evidently disap pointed, ior witnout this vote the Dem. ocrats could not have won the victory oi last Tuesday. This rictory brings Ohio to the front as a factor on the Democratic aide in the coming presidential election, and sends her presidential aspirants on the Republican side to the rear. It lays John Sherman out as cold as a wedge and brings the importance of Gov Fob . ter down to .zero, for both worked bard to carry the State and .were whinned on their own ground. The result does not 7 absolutely .ensure that State for the Democrats in the presidential race, but it gives them the vantage ground and puts it in their power if they act wisely to hold it in the Democratic column.

Typhoid fever is prevalent in por tions of New York and Massachusetts, and the boards of health are taking means to prevent its spreading. The tobacco rebate claims filed in the internal revenue bureau at Washington do not aggregate mtich over $4,000,000, a considerably smaller sum than was anticipated. S R Crumbaugb, Collector of Internal Revenue of the Second District of Ken tucky, is up before the U S Court in Louisville charged with using official government envelopes in his private correspondence to save postage. Miss Jennie Chamberlain, the Ameri can beauty, who has attracted so much attention, is an Ohio girl, born in Cleve land.but has spent several years abroad, chiefly in Paris, where she was edu cated. She is not only a beauty and an heiress, but a millionairess. Governor Butler said in an agricul tural address recently at Attleboro, Mass, that 92 per cent of every 100 of the population of that State do not go to school after they are 15 years old, be cause they have to quit school aid go to work.

Among the 108,000 who have been as sessed for taxes this year in Boston only 20,000 are down for more than poll tax. Of the remainder there are only 2,500 who pay over $1,000 tax. The richest man in the city is Frederick L Ames, worth $15,000,000, and alter him Oliver M Forbes, worth nearly as much. Philadelphia has an ex-councilman named Logan, who has become cranky on Charlie Ross. He delivered a lecture several nights ago in whieh he ad vanced the theory that Charlie was stolen by his father, who had him secreted in St. Louis, and if the court would issue papers he would have the boy back in ninety days. In a speech delivered beore the negroes at Zuni, Ya, boss Mahone said that Mr Goode held his seat in Congress by fraud, and was therefore a cheat. Mr Goode was not present, but when he heard the charge he wrote a letter to Mnhone denouncing him as a liar and a coward. This opens the way for further proceedings. Since the opening of the Brooklyn bridge 1,865,800 pedestrians crossed from New York to Brooklyn and 1,519, 600 from Brooklyn to New York, which diffeience in the number going and re turning is accounted for on the theory that many of those who crossed from New York were strangers, who return ed on the ferry boats to get a better view of the Dridge. A bridge over the Mississippi at New Orleans, where the river is 2,400 feet wide, is projected. An engineer pro poses seven spans of 300 feet each, one to be a draw. The piers are to be creo soted piles, driven in clusters, and heaily capped and cased with iron. The depth of water will be no obstacle, as the piles can be spliced. The esti mated cost is $13,000,000. 1 m i May there not be some mistake about the power of a large fortnne to make a man happy? May it not be true that carrying $200,000,000 or even $5,000,000 for board and clothes is doing a great deal of hard work for very small pay ? Dio Lewis. Yes ; but there are very few people who would not tackle the job, on trial anyway, and take the chances. Dio Lewis makes this shrewd obser; vation : "I have never met a man who was not confident he could take a hun dred millions and use them most wise ly. And yet we have not had a rich man in New York City, with the excep tion of Peter Cooper of blessed memorv. and, in a less degree, two or three others, who could use wisely even one million.

Mr Hopkins explains the reeling upon the ground that the Penn sylvania Democrats believe a mistake was made in 1880 in not nominatincr Mr Tilden. Now, be says, the Democrats of his State want to remed v the blunder by giving him their support.

The driver urges him onward with the Tvhip, and perhaps swears at him a little to make him go faster. r The horse plunges on a few! steps, then comes to a sudden halt and tries to stand still for a few moments o: rest. His shaky legs give away under him, and he falls heavily to the ground.' "Boys aiidmen crowd' around him, and try to make him stand up. They pull his tail and parch rum with sticks. Some of them are so cruel as to kick him. Presently he gives a few convulsive gasps, and he is dead. i Poor street-car horse ! . He was overworked and underfed. He hadi hard life of it. Now that he is gone, the company will put another horcj in his place. The other horse will be overloaded and worked to death in like manner. Cruel business. . There are many men who overwork and anclerfced themselves t71 they are in as bad a way as the nearly-dead rtreet-car horse. Sometimes they do it from a sense of solemn duty and cten : conscientiousness. They do not mean to kill themselves. They only want to make a living for their families. With impoverished blood and unstrung nerves and iaiiiirj stom ach and aching head and torpid liver they drag along a weary and miser able existence. They make their families as miserable as themselves. To bring these wretched, worn, and weary men out of their misery is better than to let them die. Is not a man better than a horse? Can a husband and father be replaced at the price of a worn-out animal? Save the man!
