PROTECTION AND FREE TRADE.

The Louisiana sugar planters are very
much opposed to the admission OF Ha-
waiiau sugar free Of duty, and some Of
the Southern representatives will en-
deavor to have the treaty abrogated at
the next session Of Congress. Il is
claimed that not only the produce Of
Kalakaua's kingdom is admitted into
this country, free Of duty, but that cane
growers in other parts OF the world have
taken advantage Of the treaty to the
injury Of American producers. Allen,
the insular Chief Justice, who negoti-
ated the treaty, is interested in the trade,
and is supposed to have made a large
sum Of money by his success in "bam-
boozling" the United States. The Pa
ciic Coast representatives should and
doubtless will lend the Southern mem
bers their cooperation, as the treaty is
wholly in the interest of a wealthy
sugar-refiner Of San Francisco, aud Ia
opposition to the people of the Pacific
Coast. The treaty does not lessen, but
increases, the price for consumers, and
takes the revenue formerly derived by
the Government and gives il TO one
wealthy man, Claus Spreckels. Ia this
matter, it is astonishing to notice the
silence Of the Oregonial, which a few
months ago was so vehemently urging
the repeal Of the treaty. However,
"British gold" is an excellent argument
to change the opinions Of protectionists
to those Of free trade. Just now the
Oregonida is endeavoring to get the
duty off Of railroad iron because the
people who use this means Of transpor-
tation indirectly have to pay the tariff,
and the Government gets the benefit OF
1t. Ofcourse the English and American
manufacturers would, in case the tariff
were taken of of steel rails, Immediately
reduce the prices the amount Of the tariff,
just as knocking the duty Off Of sugar
reduced the price to consumers.

ciently versed in the workings Of unions
to organize properly, their fathers and
brothers will cheerfully lend them their
assistance In the formation of societies
50 beneficial TO their interests. The
great reason why men are opposed to
woman's competition with them is that
women almost invariably do a given
amount Of work for a less sum than men
receive. Women should and do under
stand this matter, and they know how
annoying and distressing it is to them
to have their wages underbid. Let them
join together to uphold their labor, and
their brothers will be found ready to
render them every assistance. II wom-
en-, by their actions in trade matters,
will give evidence of their intention TO
be versed in political matters, 1t will
hasten their enfranchisement We
hope the half-paid women Of this city
will take action Immediately, and never
again give occasion for the sneers
through the press that have been thrown
at them by the Tailors' Union Of this
CITY

THE OPPORTUNITY.

The walking mania seems to be on the
increase. The contest for the "Astley
belt" is hardly finished in New York,
until another six-day match, "for the
O'Leary belt" is announced. The
names Of the contestants are telegraphed
over the country, as though the thirty
five men who have started in to wear
themselves out were prosecuting some
great humanitarian work. The little
intelligence required is furnished by the
"trainers" of the different pedestrians,
and the latter, who get what doubtful
fame and glory there is attached to the
life-destroying struggle, furnish the
brute force necessary to carry out the
trainers ideas and make an "interesting
match" "Sir John" Ashley might put
his money to some better use than max
ing a belt to induce foolish men to wear
themselves out; and the same might be
said Of O'Leary, only that he is a pedes-
trian himself, and can't be expected to
know better. Muscular development is
sensible, but these lengthy pedestrian
feats, which break down the expOnents
Of the art, should be prohibited by law,
just as any other destructive vice, like
opium-smOkiDg, for instance. Amateur
rowing regattas and ball matches, and
other physical contests, are we'll enough,
for there are not days and nights of
struggling to complete them but men
and women should also know that pro-
fessional athletes are Of very little ac-
count in this world. However, as long
as the Eastern colleges teach more gym
nastics than anything else, we will have
professional oarsmen, professional pc
destrians, and professional ball players.
II men or women must have contests
with their feet or hands, let them be
short and decisive, in times Of vacation
or relaxation from business duties but
do not give up your lives to seeing how
fast you can make your feet go, or how
long they will carry you.
We are glad to notice that the proper.
tion OF women pedestrians is small.
About the only two Of any note that We
can call to mind are foreigners. While
the young men in colleges are following
their athletic amusements, to the detri.
ment of mental culture, the young Ia
dies are quietly improving their oppor.
tunities and getting ready to properly
and intelligently exercise the ballot.

OUTBREAK OF THE UTEs.

The recent outbreak Of the Utes in
Colorado is another evidence that the
Indian policy in vogue in this country
is not a success. The Indians mentioned
have the largest and wealthiest reservs-
tiOn, in proportion to their numbers, Of
any tribe in the United States. 1t con-
sists of 100000 acres OF the western
portion Of Colorado, and the land is de-
scribed as being exceedingly fertile.
This allows about 5000 acres to each
member Of the tribe. The Utes will
neither cultivate this land themselves
nor allow the whites to cultivate It, and
yet they demand their food from the
Government. The real cause Of the
trouble appears to be that the agent
(who, with his assistants, was subse-
quently massacred) had ordered some
land at the White River agency to be
plowed and sown to grain, TO help
raise the food for the noble red men ;
but the Utes wanted the land for their
ponies to Craze upon, and assaulted the
farmers, killing one or two Of them.
This occurrence got them into trouble,
and led to the outbreak. The proper
way to deal with these insOlent children
of the forest is to send after them a por-
tion of the small army which the Dem
ocratic Congress allows this nation, and
convey to their "untutored minds" the
fact that it is much more pleasant to be
supported in idleness than fleeing before
even a few companies Of L. 5. troops.
The death Of Major Thornburg and bis
men testlfies to the foolishness Of pre-
venting the troops from opening fire
on the Indians until the latter make an
assault.

THE OKOLONA ESTATES. -

We cannot believe that the Okolona
Miss States is published and edited by
ex-Rebels and Democrats, although the
Republican journals all give the i'm
preston that it is a genuine Secession
list who guides its destinies. II it were
published by ex-Confederates, Northern
journals would combat its assertions and
ideas, and be alarmed at its audacity,
instead Of quoting its rawlings and allow
ing them to refute themselves. We do
not doubt that it voices the sentiments
Of a large portion OF the South, but we
cannot believe any Southerner has so
little tact or policy as to give utterance
to such thoughts as these, even though
they are the convictions Of his heart:
Let the Democracy read the conservatives
out OF their councils;
Let them proclaim that the United States is
not a nation;
Let them swear by the Lord God Omnlpotent
thai 10 never shall be a nation;
Let them teach the radicals that they are
ready 10 stand by this oath al whatever cost;
And all will yet be well.
The Republicans cannot ask better
campaign documents than this to "fire
the Northern heart, and the Democrats
know it as well as the Republicans. It's
columns could not suit the publishers Of
''radicaw papers Of the North better il
the States were edited by Senator
Blaine, or COnkling, or Chandler.

LESSON FROM THE SCANDAL.

IL is said that there are ninety-twO
rooms in the residence of the Spragues
at Canonchant, Rhode Island, but not
enough room for peace or happiness.
The silken cOuches, Administer carpets,
works of rare art, soft raiment, rich
food aud wines contained no specific
through which happiness could be Sc
cured, and the wife and her children
have LETT the handsome dwelling and
to-day are residing in an obscure home.
A trustee has been appointed for the
wife, as though she is less able to intel
ligently administer her affairs than her
drunken husband. The reason for all
this trouble is said by the Virginia En-
terprise to be that Governor Sprague
aud his wife had never learned disci-
pline. When they were married, they
each thought that to command the
worlds comforts and the worlds ap-
plause was their right. Then riches
took wings and flew away, and ugly
skeletons began to creep into the luxu-
rious chambers ami haunt them. The
man was not strong, and so took Ia
strong drink, and his wife, who j:
charged with marrying him for hi:
wealth, naturally grew to utterly dis
like him as he allowed the habit o.
drink to grow on him. Had she mar
ried some good man, the shock Of mis-
fortune would have aroused her anC
made her q very queen. As it was, she
felt from the first that there was no
material enough in her husband to b,
worth a struggle, and so she fioated OF
with the tide. The rest of the sad story
is familiar to all. The journal befor,
mentioned draws an excellent lessor
from this celebrated case" The you'll
Of the country should be taught tha
discipline is necessary to sustain per
son in misfortune; that a marriage 70
riches gives no guarantee of happines:
but runs a serious risk of placing th
victim in position Of such despair tina
he or she may grow Indifferent as t
what the world may say; and, finally
to men and women alike, the fac
should come with renewed force that

THE TERRITORIAL LEGISLATURE.

The Territorial Legislature OF Wash
ington convened in Olympia on the 9Th
instant. The Council was organized by
the election of Francis H. Cook, of
Pierce county, President; Allen Weir,
Clerk w. r. Andrews, Enrolling
Clerk J. H. Wilt, Sergeant-at-Arms
and Door-keeper Rob't Wilson, Watch
man; Ruth Biglow, Messenger; Rev.
J. r. Thompson, Chaplain. The House
Of Representatives was called to order
by ex- Chief Clerk O'Brien, and effected
a permanent organization by electing
the following officers: Geo. c. Steward,
Speaker; W. c. Potter, Chief Clerk /;
VIM. r. Hughes, Assistant Clerk; /.
d. Noble, Engrossing Clerk Emma
Harmon, Enrolling Clerk; L. p.
Berry, Sergeant-at-Arms; G. X. Keller,
Door-keeper; w. L. Hays, Messenger
Frank Sidell, Watchmani Rev. d. y.
Utter, Chaplain. The Council is com
posed Of six Republicans and three
Democrats, and the House Of Represen-
tatives of sixteen Republicans, twelve
Democrats, and one Independent, thus
giving the Republicans control Of the
Legislature. The machinery Of the or
ganizatfon will probably be in excellent
working order by the close Of this week.
The friends of woman's cause are alive
in the Territory, and we hope and con-
hdently expect that woman will be
done justice by the Legislature.

category, even to that extent that she
will not trust her husband to peddle
peaches in the rain, we can't help sym
pathizing with the poor subjugated
gentleman. The good woman finally
said that she was opposed to women be-
ing Congressman, and, as we didn't
know Of any woman who was a candi-
date for that Office, We didn't dispute
her opinion.
The society Of Yakima City is very
hospitable aud pleasant. There is, as
yet, but one organized religious body
the Congregational and no church.
The town hall belongs to Mr.. J. J.
Imbrie, formerly of Washington county,
Oregon. In this hall the religious
meetings, Sunday School, temperance
meetings, lectures and travelling shows
are held, this very cosmopolitan ar
rangement conducting to the general
harmony of the people. There are three
dry goods stores, one newspaper, three
blacksmith shops, planning mill, grist
mill, tin shop, two saloons, one brewery,
one public school, aud a school under
the control Of the Sisters of Charity.
The Indians from the reservation throng
the streets and stores as they do in Pen
dleton, and their trade makes mercan-
tile business lively, as they always pay
cash. There is a Jail in Yakima from
which culprits can escape after the
manner Of those in older prisons.
Next week the District Court will be
in session, and, if this pattering rain
quits pouring so we can go to Ellens-
burg, we'll stop over and give one or
two additional lectures upon our return
but, if the weather remains unpropitious
till tomorrow, another week will find
US where we long to beat home.
