Ottawa dispatch: The members of the
Dominion cabinet have been summoned
to the capital in consequence Of dis.
patch received from the imperial author.
titles through Lord Stanley, governor
general, asking for information regard
ing the volunteer militia forces and the
defences Of Canada. All the members
of the government are now in the city
with the exception of Hon. J. A. Chap
lean, secretary of the state, who is ex-
pected to arrive this week. The British
government, it appears, realizing that
Canada is in n semi-defenseless condi-
ton should any trouble arise with the
United States over retaliation, have
asked for an extensive report of the
armed resistance the country could offer
should there be any trouble The cabi-
net council will meet in the course of a
week or so when a report which has been
prenaled ON the subject by Sir John
Thomas, ministter of Justice, will be sub
mitted. The Federal govermeni. since
the retaliation question has become A
live issue, has wakened up to sense of
their defenseless condition.
Sir John Mcdonald, the premier. has
asked the people of the counties border
ing on the Rideau canal, winch connects
the Ottawa river with the Great Lakes
ut Kingston, to petition the government
to deepen the canal, which was built by
the British government after the war of
1912, but has since become so shallow
that gunboat could not pass through IT.
The object of this move is to open up an
inland water communication with OF
tawa to the Great Lakes, in consequence
of the liability of the St Lawrence water
route. and the Grand Trunk railway be-
ing closed by American forces immedi-
ately on the outbreak of trouble.
The adiutant general of the Canadian
forces, Colonel Powell, is receiving re-
ports from all parts of the country con-
corning the condition If the volunteer

next session of parliament the govern.
ment will increase the vote for military
purposes, so as to admit of additions to
the present volunteer forces.

THE HELENA AND HALEY RAIL.
WAY.

Elsewhere in this issue will be
found an article from the Helena
Herald, which sets forth some OF the
advantages which would result to the
Montana capital from the establish.
ment of direct rail communication
with Wood River. It is quite salts
factory as it is, yet it does not half
state the case.
The opening Of a direct rail route
Between Helena and HALEY would
secure to that city, for ever, the bulk
of our ores-an item of trade which,
even without any other, would at
once give the road paying business.
1t would also draw the most OF our
mercantile trade, and consequently
the bulk of the trade to and from the
East. Aud even il every other trib-
utary region failed, the Wood River
business alone would make Of Hell
eOa metropolis which IN every
element of wealth, refinement, and
true progress would be second to
none between the Mississippi River
and the Pacific Ocean. What the
Comstock lode has been to San Fran
cisco, Wood River would be to Hell
ena-but to much greater extent,
since we will probably, ere many more
years roll by, have so times as many
mines in this region, whose combined
yield will exceed even that of the
famous lode.
The Herald, Independent, and all
other Helena papers should therefore
take hold of this question at once,
and never stop advocating the Helena
aud Haley Railroad until it shall be-
come an accomplished fact.

A WARNING.

W. deem it our duty to request
our readers not to order any ribbons
from tie London Ribbon Agency, of
Jersey City. The "locai" came about
q month ago with the order to insert
it at once, in Daily and Weekly, for
ono year. As it came from house
unknown to US, we wrote back asking
for references.
The reply came: 20. X; reference:
II. J. Johnson, publisher, 60s Eighth
avenue, New York."
This house (if it exists) is located
several miles from the business cen.
ter Of New York City, and an equal
distance from the Office whence the
advertisement came. This we look
upon as such suspicious circum-
stance that we will refuse to publish
the local after to-day until satisfied
that the concern Is all right. If We
should be so satisfied, we will so state
in these columns.
In the meantime the New North
west, of Portland, and the dozens of
other newspapers that are publishing
the "ad." should refuse to insert it, AS
they may be simply aiding a vulgar
swindle.

-Tha visit of thu Salt |

The visit of the Salt Lake
delegation TO Denver will doubtless
be returned, at an early date, by .
visit by train load of representative
men of Colorado. This will be a
good opportunity for US of Wood
River to place some Of the pamphlets
which the Board of Trade proposes to
publish "where they will do the most
good;" and it is to be hoped that
those who will have the distribution
of the pamphlets in charge will see
that this is done.

A MUCH.NEEDED ROAD.

The people Of Camas Prairie are
again moving in the matter of max
ing wagon-road between the Gold
Belt and the Prairie, via Camp Creek,
They are already circulating a sub.
c'ption list among themselves, and
they intend to apply to the Commits
sione's at the next meeting, for
county aid.
The proposed road would be on all
easy grade that would permit the
hauling of tho heaviest loads; it
would shorten the distance between
the Prairie and the Gold Belt bv
several miles; and could probably be
completed at cost Of $500. When
completed it would be the most travel
ed road between Wood River and the
Prairie, because the various mining
camps on the way would afford the
Fsnchers the very market which should
pc theirs by virtue of location and
accessibility. With 500 consumers
on the Belt the rsnchers would, in ad-
d'''on to that of Smoky and surround
ing camps, have good cash marke,
at all seasons for about everything
that they could produce. except .
porto" Of their grain. This would

The Chinese Question.

Harrison's friends claim for him q
good record on the Chinese question.
The HERALD publishes to-day full his
tory OF all the anti-Chinese legislation in
the Senate of the United States. 1t is
complete. 1t is thoroughly elaborated
1t gives Senator Harrison's vote on all
bills, amendments and measures on this
head pending in the Senate during Sena-
tor Harrison's term of Office. He always
voted for the Chinese and never against
them. So did nearly every other Re-
publican Senator on the floor An at
tempt is now being made to eliminate
the Chinese question out OF this
campaign. 1t is belittled at
all points. Well, this attempt
will not succeed. The Chinese question
is not dead. 1t is a question which
every wage-earner in the land has most
intimate interest in. The Democracy of
this State could keep it alive in spite OF
all efforts OF the pro-Chinese Republi-
can party to bury it. Tonight the local
Democracy proposes to have rousing
anti-C Chinese meeting at the grand
stand. This is announced elsewhere in
the HERALD. By all means let all who
think the Chinese should be ex-
cluded from our soil turn out. All
Democrats so think. Let us all be there

Where Discussions Are.

Our Republican friends have been
kindly offering coincidence for years to
the Democrats of the Union upon an
alleged serious difference of opinion as to
great National issues. The tariff was
the question on which perfect chaos Of
disagreement was to be found whenever
two or three Democrats met. On the
contrary the monopolistic party was
never tired of pointing with pride to the
solid front OF sentiment its phalanges
always presented on all matters of public
moment. What are the facts? Why,
simply this: That the tears wasted
in bewailing Democratic dissensions
which never existed should have been
carefully treasured to shed for Republi-
can Kilkenny cat fights which are max
ing skin and hair fly and which will leave
only one tail to witness to the bitterness
of the battle. From Maine to Texas,
from New York to California, the Demo-
cratic party stands unit in its respon-
sive acceptance OF the doctrine of Tariff
Reform. Our Republican sympathizers
have been standing, handkerchief in
hand, to bewail detection in Connecti-
cut. Well, the Nutmeg State Democracy
is rock-ribbed and rugged as New Eng
lands hills. The party stands up to the
Presidents message and to the Mills bill
like wall of adamant. There is not a
point at which it gives way.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-09-08
Exponents of the Parties.

Woodpulp Miller is nominated by the
Republicans for Governor of New York.
This is what he has to say to the farmers
of the Empire State: 'Stop grumbling,
practise economy and abandon needless
luxuries." Now the G. o. p. is loud in it's
proclamation that laborers and the
farmers are made rich by the protective
system which has been in force for
twenty-five years, and under which the
country, we are told, has 30
greatly prospered. Then the farmers
ought to stop-to have stopped grumbling
for the reason that they should have no
cause to grumble. But it ought not to be
so exigent for them to practice economy
and to abandon needless luxuries. They
ought to be we'll able to afford luxuries.
Here is the way Daniel Bennett Hill,
Warner Miller's antagonist, talks to the
farmers:
The prosperity of the farming COM
munity is not advanced by unreasonable
taxation, particularly upon the necessi-
ties of life. Your true interest lies in OBJ
tanning reasonable prices for the pro-
ducts which you sell, while at the same
time making sure that you are not
charged unreasonable prices for what
you buy. Any system of taxation must
be regarded as Objectionable which gives
few benefits in exchange for many bur-
dens. The farmers as much as any other
class, are interested in preventing the
accumulation of an unnecessary surplus
in the Treasury of the Nation or State.
1t is safe to say that no more money
should be raised from any source of tax
alton than is necessary to support
the Government economically admins
tered. An overfowing treasury begets
extravaganza and corruption. 1t is a
standing menace to honest Government.
1t encourages expenditures of doubtful
propriety, and the precedent is pernicious
in the extreme. The farmer gets the
least benefit of improvident expenditure
OF public money, and none sooner feels
the effect. There is no advantage to &C.
crue to you in the building up of monop-
olies anywhere. What you need most is
fair play, better and wider markets, free
dom from unnecessary exactions, and
equal and just laws made in the interest
of the whole people, and not for any
special class.
These men are good exponents, one
of Republicanism, the other of honest
Democracy.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-09-08
Queer Fish,

Congressman Ford, upon his return
from New England, where he went with
his committee to inquire into the immi-
grafton of paupers, was interviewed by a
N. Y. World reporter. Among other mat
ters discussed was the Fisheries muddle.
Ford said he found that seventy-fve per
cent. of all the fishermen along the New
England coast are Blue Noses, Canucks
and other foreigners. Here is what he
says:
With the exception of our trip to
California we have about concluded our
labors. We have found the immigration
laws violated with impunity, both in
New York and in Boston. With regard
to the management of Castle Garden,
even Commissioner Stephenson admitted
to me that, to use his own language. 1T
is perfect farce The laws have been
openly defied and there has been no at.
tempt to check the abuses.
Apropos of this discussion of the
fisheries question our committee made a
startling discovery. We found in Boston,
that of the men who constitute our fish
ing crews seventy-fve per cent. are
aliens. ! do not mean Of foreign birth,
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-09-08

but aliens, and still subjects of Great
Britain. Mr.. Colcord, the port boarding
officer at Boston, testified before us that
on an average 5000 Canadians come
to this country each year to work during
the summer, who invariably return in
the fall, and that of this number $500
were fishermen. 1t has been claimed
that the ratification OF the recently re-
jected Fisheries treaty would have driven
American fishermen from this occupa-
ton, whereas few Americans are engaged
in the fishing industry, and it has come
at last to the point where the American
fisherman, as class, is thing of the
past.
Our investigation shows that encour-
aged, stimulated and pauper immigra-
ton has an effect on the industl ial situa-
ton in this country to an appalling ex-
tent. There is not law enough on the
subject, except as to contract labor. and
that is not enforced. A number of sug-
gestions have been offered as to the best
means Of regulating immigration. 1 favor
a law making it compulsory upon each
intending immigrant to file notice of
his intention at least sixty days before
his departure, thus enabling our consular
agents to ascertain whet 1er he belongs to
any of the inhibited class. That might
necessitate the increase of our consular
service somewhat, perhaps by the addi-
ton of consular inspectors. a system of
fees for certificates, however, could be
instituted, which would about meet this
additional expense.
So many Congressional investigations
have come to naught that it may not be
unnatural for certain people to make the
insipuations that after election this whole
matter will be allowed to drop. l want
to say right here, however, that we mean
business, and that this inquiry will be
just as vigorously pushed and its results
emphasized after election as before. The
people may rest assured of this.
