WJ > Mr. Council said ! Ecry true friend of
J labor will rejoice that nn opportunity is now
plven for the eon.stilorn.tlon of this bill , which
1ms for its purpose the Improvement of tlio
conditioner the vago-worliers of Arnorlea.
It is n bill that outjlit to receive , and I trust
wilireeoho , tbe support of every moinber of
this house. The committco on labor , of
which 1 luvo the honor to boa member , has
most thoroughly nnd carefully considered
Its provisions , nnd has imnnimouslr reported
. Jn favor of its passage. It is endorsed by
ll the American federation of Labor and ly
many usiom biles of tno ICniijhtsof Labor ,
It is supported by the grent tirrny of wage-
workers , who justly denund that eight hours
shiUl constitute n day's work , and who will
hnil with delight its passavo ns n substantial
nnd proper rccognitlun , of the reasonableness
of tlicir demand.
Mr. Speaker , thoworlcmon and mechnnica
' 'Of this country donotscelUo escape from
toil. They ' rccoRiiizo the nccessltyof workini ; .
They 'ehcorf ully submit to tbo divine decrto
promulfjiitcd almost sii thousand years ago
that "iu the sweat of thy f nco shill tliou eat
broad. " They hellovo labor Is honoraUc mid
that with it comes contoutmoiitand happi
ness. They recognize , ns all thinking mca
must do , that Idleness is n curse. It Is with
5 full appreciation of tlieso self-eUilciit nrin-
bil/n-a tiiiib LIIVJ , nvw uuiiiiuu i riniuuuuu ui
the hours of toll. The demand thnt eight
hours slnll constitute a day's work is
a reasonable demand. It Is a demand
which , sooner or later , must bo conceded.
For tlio vulfnro and prospeuty ofour coun
try I hope it may he. conceded without un
necessary delay. The agitational present
existing will never ccaso until tins
la done. The strikes of the
past me certain to bo repeated In the
future unless Justice prevails. No question
or controversy Is ever settled until itls set
tled light , TBO breach botu eon capital ami
liiborwliich isconstantly wiJeningshould bo
closed. The chasm between the mosses and
the favored few which , U rapidly becoming a
riUMiin KUlf should bo bridged. The levelIng -
Ing proceis is suvotocomo sooner orlutcr ,
ami It is for the people of this country to say
whctherltshall corao peaceably nnd quietly ,
by iiiureasinpr wages and reducing the hour *
of toll , orcomoas athuudorlwlt of anarchy ,
brlucinKwtthit dcstructlou of property an !
loss of human lifo.
Air speulcur , It is to the honor anil credit of
the worlilngrncn of America that in their ef
forts for tbo Improvement of their condition
they ho Dcen moderate , reasonable and
luwnbidlug.Vith \ but fov exceptions tlio
strikes which have occurred have , been attended -
, ) tended by a strict observnncoof la\v \ and good
order. The great stilko for the eight hour
.system which occurred at Chicago in May
1 last , was n , splendid vindication of the peace
able , law-abiding character of American
woiklngmeu. It was also a dem
onstration of their iiitellijonco anil
loyalty. In a procession of 20,000
men , the utmost good order was maintained ,
Whllo the stars nnd stripes u.ived nlonij the
Srntlrollue. It may safely bo asserted that
among no class lu this countrv can bofound
n greater degree of patient cn'durance , Intel-
Hgfneo and patriotism than araonu the labor
ers , workmen and mechanics , who constitute
thogrentnriny \vngo-woikers , It la ly
lair argument and organised effort that they
hopato seen ro their Kghts and to obtain for
labor Its Just ro\vnrd. ThoJO means have al
ready proved [ xstcnt In moulillnjc public opin
ion. Thotldohascotnmencoit to turn , The
preat maiorityof business men of the coun

tion of nffatrsand turn realise , ns never be

conceding to waRO-workcrs soreo of their
roosonauo dcmamu. Tlioy view with alarm
the danger that threatens the business and
cornmorco of the country , not from organized
labor , but from tlio tyranny of organized cap-
Itnl which seeks toonslavo labor aad rob the
wago-workor of the fruits of his toll. They
eoo , iis nil who sUip to think must do , ttiat
' .our frco Institutions and Industrial progress
'nretodny in jeopardy from the ccnceutr.itloa
of power In corporations , trusts and syndi
cates , nnd the arbitrary ojorciso of such
iwwor in the Interest of capital.
Air. Siio.ilct'r , I Inra referred to the great
Muydnystriko at Chicago and throughout
the civilized world In behalf of the
eight-hour system. I now wish ,
within the brief tirno I'shall occupy ,
to nalfo i passing reference to the recent
htrlko along the line of the Now York Cen
tral I am not an advocate of strikes. I do-
plora their cxlsUinco. I much regret their
frequent occurrence. As evils , they seem
unavoidable. As evils they will continue to
exist nntU proper legislation is had nnd Justice -
tico shall prevail , Until then orpmized
labor must protect Itself by demanding what
it i fauly entitled to ulcel o , and wlien till *
shull fail , on force lucb. dotnand nj best It can
by all lawful imu peaceful menus \\Mtlim Its
conmiunj. Oi auUod labor luemn orwiuzcd

eleventh century were sla\es \ ; these of to-
lar arc fren men , nnd as such hive thorlnht
Dolti to ortrnnlzo and to act for their self pro-
" action. This i.i K proposition to which Mr.
\Yobb , the present manager of tno Now York
Central , ovIJontljr dots notyicll ixssCnt. Ho
srcms to consider that "might makes right , "
and that if ho has the power to crush the
men who have had the hardihood to aslc a
consideration of what they deemed tholr
rljht-Hlt ishls duty to do soregardless of
the consequence ! and regardless of the
rights of the public. Ho has proclaimed
tlmt the great , corpor.itlon which bo repre
sents proposed to vindicate- right to em
ploy and discharge whoever it wished ,
whenever It pleased nnd pcncrally to
"iim Its own linslnejs In its own way. "
2fo\v , this sounds very fliio anil as a general
proposition maygcein coircct , but carried to
its natural and legitimate result , it means an
nbioluto ignoring of the rl htiof cmplojcs ,
\\ltlchrltrtits I contoiiJ , run parallel with the

tion.Vhlle
\Vhlle thlj proposition ' tiiayhocontrovcrted ,
no one \vlll Jlspjto that ; the doni.mdiof labor

tlcallybcondonled by thu nmnngumcnt oftho
I\'o\v York Contml , vhllo all propoiltloni to

AVIiathos lecontly occurie.l , untiucstlonably
\\II1 borepe.itPdartd , it is not oiitof pUce
hero to predict with greater losses to the
company and nwro seriouj consequences to
the public. The situation isoaowhlchproparly
demands the attention of congress. As repre
sentatives of the p wcJu-'H bo derelict hi
our duty , if\vo fall to take action to prevent
future repetition ? of what has recently boon
witnessed. Thoviiiillcntlon of a policy oitho
onforceincntof aclaimof right should not bo
rnado at the expense of the people and to the
injury of tlio public. Some plan of arbitra
tion should bo devised and enforced. The
iniiiauenient of thosogroat interstate1 lines of
travoland commerce should bo required by
law tosubmlt to arbitration. That the Now
York Central refused to listen to anypronosi-
tlon of this imtura is another cUdciico of the
foolhardy and reckless disregards of tlio rights
of employe * by railway corporations. The
tlmo is not far distant when seiious consider
ation will bo given to thu demand ) of the
people , that Intsr-stato line * of railway , as
veil as telegraph lines , shall bo opsratel by
the government , for one , I stmdreudr to
advocate and fat or this being done. I bcllovo
the plan is entirely practicable , I believe it
\vouldrcsultiiigrcatgoodto the masses.
lielioveit isonlya question of tlmo when it
vill bo perfected nnd put In operation. Bufc
my tiraoill not admit of a dlsjusjioa in
iletallof { joviiriiiniMitovviicnhipnuct control of
raiUvays. The bill no\v being considered re
lates to another matter. It is ouo with which
puDlicsentlment has already so crystnlizcd
that there can now scarcely bo i difference of
opinion as to either its merits or necessities.
While it may bo douied that the " orld
owes cvorynmn a living , " it \\\ll \ bj univer
sally admfttod that eiory maa has a right to
"earn his dally brand by the sweat of liia
brow. " The present wage system denies this
to many thousand willing workers. In America -
ica , which should be the ttorkingmon's Kdo-
rado , thcro are upwards of a million out of
employment. "Enforced idleness , " says Car
lyle , ' 'is ' the Englishman's hell. " This an
plies with double force to American work-
inpincn. Ko sjstom can bo defended which
vlll turn vllllng woikers Into this hell and
lock the doors against them. Shall \\o bonow
forced to confess that all labor-saving inven
tlons have proved a curse Instead of a bless
iiiRi This wo must do , unless the hours o
toll are so reduced as to give employment to
those who are vllling to work. The inven
tions , whicn have beja largely inndo by work-
incu and mcohanics , were- not designed as o
blessing to the rluh and a eurso to the poor.
Steam and electricity wore intended by God

It is merely a Question of a little time , at the

Mr. Speaker , on one occasion , many yesrs
ago. in tne consideration ofn great litinmlal
problem by this house , the brilliant but ec-
cpiitric Kandolph of lio.mokc , tragically ex
claimed : "I have found It I luvo discov
ered the philosopher's stone ; It is pay as
you go. " I do not claim to bj a Iliiublph or
to bo possessed oftho remailrablo gifts which
mndo him such it striking and picturesque
character in the hlstorv of our country. Ido
claim , hown\cr , tint the philosophers stone
has ngaln been discovered , and that arcmedy
for the evils of the present hbor system has
been found which will bring happiness to the
wago-worker anil poato and prosperity to
capital. It is to so raise wa os and reduce
the hours oC toil as will uifl'to ' llfo worth liv
ing nnd give work to the unemployed. Wiy
should not the wage worker have some of
ihnsunshlnonnd leisure of llfo to enjoy Iho
beauties of nature and the comfoits of his
liomoJ
'Iho poet Ooetho has truly said : "Every
man should hear a llttlo music , read a little
poetry , nnd see a flno picture every da > of
his life In order that the wotldly cures of llfo
may not blot out the soiibo of thu beauti
ful implanted by God In the soul. " As the
Ural laborer drags himself honietvnrd after
tenor t\\e'vc \ hours of weary toll , it hut are
thcso itorctsof the poet to him but hollow
mockery ! AVherois lilt opportunity for rec
reation and enjoyment ! Where the time for
cultivating his sense of tlio beautiful ? The
sky may bo an axuro blue ; the heavens may
bo studded ulth
countless spaikllng gems ;
all nature may rejoice , but the weary wage-
worKer trudges along his way unconscious of
it all ; the sense oftho beautiful has veil nigh
been blotted out of his soul ,

3Ir. Hill I would like to ask the gentlo-
mun from Nebraska If It Is the purpose of the
proviso at the end of section 1 to make the
goterntnent of the United States liable for
the payment of workmen and contractors em
ployed by subcontractors ?
Mr. Connell No , sir ; I do not think that
is the purpose or effect of the provision re
ferred to.
Mr. Hill The gentleman will observe that
it provides at the end that they shall bo
doomed1 to bo employed by nnd on iwhalfof
the government of the united States. If
they are employed by and on behalf of the

States would certainly bo liable for their
payment.
Mr. Council That refers only to laborers ,
workmen , or mechanics actually employed by
the government. The second section relates
to contractors.
Mr. Tracer But the gentleman from Illi
nois [ Mr Hillj refers to the proviso.
Mr. Hill I have reference to the proviso.
If you mil pardon me. you will see that the
proviso relates ejiclusivoly to laboron , work
men , and mechanics employed by contractors
and subcontractors , and piovldea that they
shall be deemed to oe employed by or on behalf -
half of the government of the United States.
Now , if they are employed by or on behalf of
the gotorninont of the United States , the
United States would certulnly bo liable for
their payment. 1 do not suppose it was the
intention of the committee to ruako tuat the
law.
law.Mr.
Mr. Conncll No.
Mr. Hill And I have Qraughtod hero nn
amendment which I wUh tosubmlt , coveiing
that subject.
Mr. Conncll I am safe In stating that it
was not the purpose oftho provWou to make
the government liable to the employes of con-
f T"Otrtt V Ilt. Hfll lA r\t ltr tffVlrt tisttLm/m nnrl
mechanics directly employed by the govern
ment.
Mr. Hill With that explanation , Mr.
Speaker. I would liico to offer an amendment
to como In at the end of this section.
Mr. Connell The amendment may bo of
fered and may bo considered as pcndinpr.
Mr. Hill I ask that It may bo read and
considered as pcndincr. at this time.
The Speaker pro tomporc The gentleman
from Illinois [ Mr. Hill ] , in the tlmo of the
gentlemen from Nebraska [ Mr. Council ] , pro-
no03 the following amendment to bo con
sidered as pcndin ? .
Mr. Conncll I thinlc thcro Is no objection
to that , Mr. Speaker.
The Speaker pro tcmporo The gen

Milwaukee OflUHali Visit the Coin-
pnnjr'B Oroiin'ils niitl Promises
A Sjiccdy Settlement of
ThcllinirttltlfB.
A. J. Enrlinir , general manager of the Jill-
vaukco , arrived In the city Monday from
Chicago , and remained hero until yesterday
loon , when he left for the east. Ho spent Mon
day with GencralAgent Nash in the vicinity
of Seventeenth nnd Mason street ? , \vhcro the
company owns nbout four acres of loud ,
itblnif could he learned at the company's
oflleo us to the object or probable result of the
general umiiaxer's visit , but it Is understood
hntit was oct'asloiicd by the mooted question
of depot grounds.
Now tlmt the Milwaukee has secured a
lincty-iilno years leusoof rinht-of-wny across
the Union Paclllc bridge anil over the tracks
of the latter company to South Oniahu , It
wants depot facilities in this elty , It will bo
entitled to go Into the now unioa depot on
the same terms us the other roads , but that
strticturowill not be completed for tw > years ,
t , therefore , \vants accommodations of some
{ indin the mean tlmo. The Union P.icillc Is
occupyltip temporary quarters with the 13 , &
M. on ground owned by the latter
company , nnd the Mihvnulteo wanted
n nnt n little ulieo of the s.imo quarters , but
thoB. &M. folks would not permit it. They
refused to let the Milwaukee folks coino In
at what the hitter
except considered nti ex
orbitant figure , nnd as they have full control
of the latch string , tbo Milwaukee is still out
' .n . the cold.
This being the case , it is necessary for
.hem to do some active hustling , and itls
understood that General Manager Uarllug
came hcio for that very purpose.
The fnrt that ho put In nearly nil of his
timowhllo hero nt the company's vacant
: rounds at Seventeontli and Mason , which is
iustbesido the leased tiacksof the company ,
1'lvcs rise to the belief that the lattur In-
Louds orcrtintf a depot at thnt point provided
the B. > I , continues to phy its delusive
gnrno of frcorc-out
OflleinU oftho company hive llttlo to say
about the matter , but vouchsafe the informa
tion that If u depot Is erected there it will be
a combined pisscnRer and freight structure ,
nnd they alsosay that If the company In
vests a largo sum of money In n depot
thew they x\111 hardly ho ready to throw it
away in two jears for the sake of golag into
the union depot. If they can secure temporary
ary aucomodations until the union depot is
ready , tlio Union I'ncillo's iie'v freight depot
will take care of nil the freight on the lines
crossing the bridgo.
Uho Mlwaukeo officials express the belief
thnt the B. &M. d-xjsuot want them in the
temporary depot at all and will not let them
in unless they como to the stiff terms de-
rnandca. They cliargo tnat the B. & M. is
trying to freeze them out of the city for two
years longer. '
Vhat the result of General Manager Earl-
ing's ' visit will bo cannbt bo determined , but
the Impression prevails that it ulll lead to n
speedy settlement of the question whether
the B. & M. will como to satisfactory terms
or whether the Milwaukee must erect Its o\vn \
depot at Seventeenth nnd Rhson ,
Several others of the Milwaukee officials
were in the city , but did not visit the
Proposed depot sito. 'Tho party included E.
' . Itipley of Chicago , first vice president ; J.
H. Highland of Chicago , general freight
agent ; OeorgoH. Hoaflord of Chicago , ccn-
eral passenger aqent , and C. A. Goodonough
of Jdarion , superintendent of the Chicago and
Council BluiTs lines.
They came in yesterday morning la "Vice
President Klnloy's ' special car. They In
spected the Ilnc3 arid left last evening for
Chicago.
