Protection and the Northwest

sAn old whig" writes some inter-
esting facts 10 The editor of the New
York Mail and Express relative to
what protection has done for the
northwest: He tells of trip be
made during tlie 'srippecanoe and
Tyler too" campaign OF 1643 to De-
troit, then en- old place but a mall
city, to Chicago with 5000 inhabi-
tants, to st. Paul, which was then a
trading post only. Now Chicago
claims a population of 100000 and
St. Paul aud Minneapolis each over
100000 Inhabitants. THE old whig"
says:
s.Sueh growth and prosperity in
less than fifty years is unparalleled
and maitily due to protection. The
whole northwest was full OF splendid
virgin lands awaiting population for
its magnificent development, but 1T
was accessible by steamer from Bal
falo to Chicago via Lakes Erie, Hu-
ron and Michigdti, to Chicago, trip
of six days" .,s.-
The memorable revulsion OF 1887
and want of capital and currency OF
that period is referred to and he
points out the fact that the only
means of building railways was by
buying poor English iron rails with
railway bonds at prices three times
as great as the present cost ef excel
lent Americal steel rails, and our
mines had to remain undeveioped
until the government at " Nashington
passed from the control of the South
ern leaders (who then, as now, were
advocates of fee trade and denouuc-
ed protection as robbery by the po-
litical revolution of 1919, which led
to important changes in our tariff
laws and the adoption of the princi-
pie OF protection to American indus
tries

Editorial Notes.

When Delegate Voorhees, says the
democrats in congress have not de-
feated the admission of Washington
Territory to statehood, and that no
effort for admission was made by any
of his republican predecessors, he is
attempting bare faced misrepre-
sentation that is not even plausible.

BRICK The new briek-making

did bricks A sample was brought
to this city Tuesday, taken from the
outside OF the kiln. 1t cel tainly is of
very superior quality. Tho manu-
facturers claim that they can deliver
these bricks upon scow at SO per
thousand. Half dollar a thousand
will pay for towing them, and they
can be sold here at a good profit. It
would pay any OF our leading mere

local market for them, nd secure to

When the Republican party came
into power in 1860 the national treas
ury was empty, and the credit of the
nation was seriously impaired. Four
years ago Hendricks said there were
four hundred million dollars on hand.
The Secretary of the Treasury now
says there are only about thirteen
million dollars on hand. The demo-
Gratis have been in power less than

LAW FOR THE LAND OFFICE.
Washington, Oct. 2-The Senate
bill to allow persons who have aban
doned or relinquished homestead en-
tries to make other entries was taken
up and an amendment adopted, pro-
viding that whenever it appears to
the register of the land Office that
any settler on the public domain is
unable by reason of drought or 9th
er unavoidable causalty to secure
support for himself the register may
grant such settler leaye of absence
from his claim not exceeding one
year. On the motion of Hermann of
Oregon the amendment was adopted
providing that all public lands des-
iguated as double minimum pre-
emption lands be also reduced to the
uniform rate of Sl.25 per acre. An
amendment was adopted providing
that any homestead settler who has
entered less than quarter section,
may enter additional land contigu-
Gus to the original entry, which, with
such entry, shall not exceed 160
acres. The bill as amended was
passed.
FOR THE RosLYN MINES.
Pasco, Sept 30 Contractor
Worthington and the irrepressible
Sullivan, manager Of ThiePs detec-
tive agency, arrived here this morn
ing with a special train of eight cars,
containing 100 colored miners and
their families, and left for Roslyn
mine No. 8
Sullivan being asked how matters
were at Roslyn, said everything was
settled amicably with ihe white
miners at mines l and 2, and they
were ali going to work Monday.
Being asked if it was on the old
tefins, he said he believed not, but
on a reduction of from 10 to 25 per
cent; but it was as good terms as the
the old prices, as there would be SO
many men working in eaoh room
and the rnles and regulations of the
knights Of Labor would not be in
force. and if miner earned $3.50 a
day he could have it all and not have
to turn the surplus over to The
knights of Labor. He said he thought
the camp would now be better than
ever and did not apprehend any fur
ther trouble, as it is fully understood
now that mine No 8 is to be worked
by colored laborers.

The northern part of Snohomish
county is drained by the Stillagua-
mish river and the southern portion
of Snohomish and the northeastern
psrt5ef King county are drained by
the Snonomish and its tributaries
The area of the county IS about
$500 square miles. One-third of its
soil is fertile marsh, or bottom land,
one-third is mainly valuable for its
timber, and the rest is semi sterile,
or mountain land.
Nearly all the lapd is covered with
extra heavy timber, and nearly h l.,
even the poorest land, affords ex~
cellent pasturage when the timber Is
removed. During the past twenty
years nearly one-fourth of the cut on
Puget Sound has been taken from
Snohomish county, and to-day there
remains, uncut, within the county,
a far greater body of excellent tim
ber than III any other county
While along the streams and near
the towns nearly all the lands are
taken and held at high rates, yet
farther back, near the mountains,
tlmDer ana agricultural lauuS VI tHe
best quality remain untaken. Not
over one-sixth of the lands in the
county are owned by individuals,
and of the really valuable lands
nearly three fourths remain untaken-

The Secretary of the [. S. Treasury
reports hundred and seventeen
million dollars on hand, but says
that when current obligations and
appropriations are met there will on
ly be about thirteen million dollars
on hand.
The question very naturally arises:
would Col. j. G. Haincs have been
subjected to the indignity heaped up
on lin by the democratic officials if
be had been democrat? We haz-
ard nothing in saying he would not.
COL. Haines is an eloquent orator,
and such forc;ble campaign speak
er that he was sure to deal some very
effective blows this fall The pre-
text WAS seized upon to take him out
OF the contest, and throw odium up
on the party. Such mean adyan-
tage will not soon be forgotten by
