Puyallup valley, in Washington Ter
ritory, located about ten miles east of
Tacoma, is the great hop producing
section of the Pacific coast. This
season, in consequence of the hop
famine in Europe, the price has ad-
vanced 400 to SEQ per cent. The hop
growers of Puyallup are in high
clover, so tospeak, some of them clear
ing $4,000 on their crop. Before the
picking season opened they sent
messenger up the coast to notify the
Indians of an advance in the price of
picking hops, for all the picking is
done by Indians. This welcome news
had the effect of bringing S;washes
from the northern part Of British Co

dotted with their canoes, all heading
for Tacoma Many of the canoes were
loaded down almost to the waters

WE have received a letter from friend
who thinks we devote too much thought
and space to advocating organization.
He says that organization is we'll enough,
but that education is the only means by
which the poor of the land can, be liber-
ated from their present slavery. We
fully agree with our friend The people
will have to be educated up to full un-
derstanding Of the wrongs heaped upon
them, and taught the best methods of
freeing themselves but what better
mode of education is there than organi-
zation? 1t is through the ballot or the
bullet the people have always obtained
their rights, and it has been fully dem
Onstrated on every occasion that where
there was no organization there could be
no success. Capital is organized against
labor, and if the latter expects to win in
the contest that is surely coming, the
ranks must be organized, and each
worker in a position to know his friend
from his foe. The war cry is: "Agitate
Educatei Organized" !" and in these three
only can we hope to win. 1t is the pro-
vince of THE ENQUIRER, with every other
labor paper in the land to devote it's col
umns to the instruction of it's readers

THERE seems to be little trouble be-
tween the Union and Peoples Advocate,
both labor papers, published in St. Louis.
This is one of the greatest evils we have
to contend with. Papers who counsel
unity of action among inviduals should
practice itthemselves. If either of our
worthy and esteemed St.Louis exchanges
are itching for a journalistic combat, they
can find bitter foe in the subsidized
press Of their city, and we commend
them to the work and bid them God
speed in the battle, Let's have done with
these petty dissensions in Qua own

as the state sanctions the letting by con-

now prevalent, so long will they keep
honest men out of employment, and
want and suffering will sit side by side

THE PEOPLES LAWS.

With other good bills that have been
introduced at this session of the Iegisla-
ture some Of those particularly affecting
the labOring classes have been set aside to
give time for the consideration of the sena-
tOrial question, and some of them have
been so deeply buried under scratch-blOck
tallies of senatorial votes that it will be a
miracle if they see the light again during
this session. The judiciary committee of
the house have had the lien bills under
consideration, but for some reason have
failed to recommend the passage of any.
They have however, drawn up, bill and
presented it to the house, which bill, we
are informed is very similar to those intro
duced by Messrs Tilford and Pisko We
were unable to see the bill OF be present
during its reading but have been assured
by watchful friends in the house that it is
all right and covers the ground fairly and

A JUST rebuke was administered to the
morning press of Denver in the joint ses-
sion Thursday, by gentleman who is a
candidate for the United States senate.
There is no question in the minds of all
honest people that the course pursued
by the morning papers of this city is
reprehensible and entirely contrary to
what the>reading public desire in the
journals they support. The blasphemous
billingsgate style of journalism should
not be tolerated by an honorable people
and we hope that the citizens of Colo,
RADIO will manifest their indignation ot
such course to an extent that it will be
abandoned, or its followers compelled to
shut up shop.
