limitations are given out that several of
the newspapers which have been seriously
criticising the administration for its attitude
toward the Pan-Electric suit are stimulated by
promises of liberal reward from the Bell peo-
pie That may or may not be true. The press,
we are sorry to say, hasnot always shown it
self proof against the Establishments of the al
mighty dollar, and it would not be very sur
prising if the zeal of some of the newspapers
IN exposing the telephone scandal has its
source in unworthy motives But this fact,
assuming that it be fact, though as yet no
proof has been offered, while tits discredable
70 the newspapers, is no defense of the con-
duct OF Attorney General Garland or Secre-
tary Lamar. A large per cent of the Grimm
al prosecutions in the country are instigated
no doubt from unworthy motives. Spite,

the New York World is hired bv the Rel,
Telephone Company to break down the sni+

the New York Sun is retained for the same

make the facts which they expose any the
less damaging? Of course evidence from
such sources is to be viewed with suspicion,
but when the truth of it is established be-
yond all doubt, the fact that the party pre-
senting 1t is influenced by unworthy motives
in no way inyalidates it.
In this case there is no pretence that the
facts alleged by these two papers are not
true. It's admitted that Attorney General
Garland holds a block of stock in the Pan
Electric Company of the nominal value of
The Portland daily press., 1886-02-05

oyer million dollars; it is admitted that
the stock was given him, that he never paid
a cent for it; it is admitted that this stock
will never have any value except what is
conferred upon it by the suit brought by the
the department of justice, of which Mr.. Gar
land is the head; it is admitted that if that
suit is successful the stock will become of
great value, and that Mr.. Garland will be en-
riched in consequence to the amount of mil
lions Of dollars. These are facts, and they
constitute the basis of the indictment against
the Attorney General. To say that the mo-
tive for exposing them is unworthy does not
abate their force in the slightest degree. 1t
is only throwing dust for the purpose of OBJ
securing the vision of the people, so they may
observe less clearly the suspicious attitude
of the Attorney General. The lawyer who
feels that he has ia bad case always seeks to
befog the jury by introducing extraneous
matter. The defenders of the Attorney Gen
eral are now resorting to this trick.

Robbing a Widow.

New ORLEANS, March PA special
to the Picayune from Aberdeen, Miss,
saws: Tonight three strangers went to
the house of Mrs. Schlander, widow,
living across the lake from Tehula,
twelve miles from Lexington, gagged
and bound her and peddler, who was
in the house at the time, with the view
to securing large sum OF money be-
lieved to be secreted about the house.
The old lady was subjected to all man
ner of torture, and it was not.until they
carried her to the fire, and threatened
to burn her, that she told where 81 300
was secreted. As soon as this sum was
secured, and 500 that the peddler had,
the robbers left for Lexington, to take
the train. The peddler got out his knife,
cut the cords, released himself and
gave the alarm. Town Marshal Moses
G. Jennet and John Gwln started in
pursuit and overlook the robbers, about
a mile from Ellington, where battle
occurred. One of the robbers was in
stantly killed, and another wounded.
The wounded robber was traced to the
edge of town and hopes are entertained
of his capture. In sack addressed TO
Mrs. Schlander, on the person of the
dead robber was found S2l5. In his hat
was band neatly embroidered, with
the initials &c G." Ne papers were
found to identify him.

Anarchist Outrages.

BRUSSELS, March 22.-Earlier reports
of anarchotic riots at Jemppe, Timeur
and Saraing in Belgium, on Saturday
last, were all tar short of the actual
truth. great amount of property was
ruined at each place. at Liege there
was an open conflict between the troops,
which had been massed there for the
protection of the place, and large body
of anarchists, who were marching
against the town for the purpose of
lootipg it. The fight was severe and
prolonged, but finally resulted in the
repulse of the anarchists. They were
not driven from the field, however, un-
til the troops charged upon them with
bayonets. A large number of men on
both sides were injured. Six thousand
regular troops are on duty, guarding
the district disturbed by the rioters on
Saturday. q
Gems d armes and strikers at Seraing
are in conflict to-day, and both sides
have been firing on each other. Many
are wounded.

At present the cause of the strike can

vance in wages a week ago on the vari-
GUS roads and it was not granted. There
are flying rumors TO the effect that

The Labor Bureau.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-The first
annual report of the Bureau of Labor
is completed. 1t will cover about 500
pages. Under the head of industrial
depressions in the United States, Com
missioner Wright says: "From obser-
vations of agents of the bureau and
from ether sources from which it has
been possible to form conclusions, it is
undoubtedly true that out of a total
number OF establishments such as
factories, mines, etc., existing in the
country, about per cent. were abso-
lutely idle during 1885, and that per
haps per cent. more were idle part of
the time, or for the first estimate, ~
per cent. of the whole number of
such establishments we're idle or
equivalent during the past year.
Applying the per cent. arrived at, we
have total Of sos, 900 unemployed per-
sons in 1885. A million men out of en-
pioyment means loss to the consump-
tive power of the country of at least
81 900 600 per day, or crippling of the
trade of the country $500, 1000. per
year. 1t is curious to observe, however,
that while :he severity of the depression
causes a Gripping to the extent of
several hundred million dollars per
year of the consuming power of the
people, the volume of business trans
acted is not crippled comparatively to
any such extent. The employment of
contract labor, of foreign importation
and rapid immigration generally, are
features which have positive influence
in crlppling the consuming power. By
the census of 1880 the whole
number of people engaged in ag-
riculture in the United States was
z $40 $40. Into this number there had
been absorbed S12,S29 foreign born.
The total number employed in manu-
features, mechanical and mining in
dustries, was 1887, Ill, of whom ,225.-
7S7 were of foreign birth. 1t will he
seen at once tha: the tendency of immi-
grants is 10 assimilate with our mechan-
zeal industries. This increase of the
supply of labor in comparison to the de-
mand, lowers wages, contributes to
whatever production exists and cripples
the consuming power of the whole. So
far as investigation indicates, the en-
ployment of foreiga labor under con.
tract to the places of dissatisfied home
laborers has been a miserable failure
for all parties concerned, except per
haps the parties imported. AS to the
severity of the present industrial
depression andits duration, it can safely
be asserted that the depression COM
menced early in 1882. and has continued
until the present time At the present
time March, 1885, the effects OF the de-
preston are wearing away. and all indi-
cations are that prosperity is slowly and
gradually, but safely returning. VI
