Kallocb, who haa juat been elected mayor of San p Francisco, be honestly called a work-ingman, work-ingman, as iron moulders, rihip carpenters car-penters and shoemakers are working-j working-j men? Doubtless Kallocb is a man who works, and will work, but, lrom the point of view usually taken by b Kearneyitea, he is a mere excreceuse e of society. Tbe same may be J aaid of Schwab, one ol the leaders of New York workiegmen, although i ; it migiit be proper to apologize to ; Kajloch, wbo has been industrious io ' his several callings, (or associating his name with a mere vender of malt beverages. Tiien there is Ciitus Bar-' Bar-' bour, the workingmen's candidate for oongnssmnn in the First district.
