81 STRIKE.

The strike of engineers on the Montana
Union, which took effect Tuesday afternoon,
was adjusted yesterday evening, and last
night trains were on schedule time again.
We have not data sufficient to know If the
engineers were justified in striking; it is Ger
tain there was nothing to justify killing or
crippling engines. .... ..
If the order to shut down the Anaconda
works is not rescinded, and that order shall
prove to have had its inception in this strike,
the striking engineers will never be forgiven
by the people of Anaconda. A shut down
until May will work i%ncalculable and almost
frreparable injury to oil the people of that
place and the surrounding country, As we'll
IS to the several hundred miners and their
families who will be thrown out of work At
the Butte mine. The evil of 1t can hardly
be estimated, and we are apprehensive it
will stand. The copper pool is overloaded
with product, and Mr.. Hsggin probably
thinks this the best time to have his works
lay of. The outlook is . very unhappy one
for Anaconda.

THE pAPAL SUCCESSION.
The Political Aspect Of the situation Considered

MONTREAL, Dec. LA special from otts'
wa to the Witness Of this city says:
MI. Mitchell Vidal, formerly . member OF
Congress from Louisiana and = well'known
diplomatic agent, is in this city. He was =
member of the Commission which settled
the claims of the Hudson Bay Company
against the United Statas Government In
1868 and 1859. He has beenj Commissioner
at Peru and Consul at TripoIl. BE has spent
his recent year in Italy. Abiding to the
Pope's great age to-day, he asserted thai the
opinion among the Cardlna ais Is that the
next Pope must not be IN Italian. In Paris
Mr.. Vidal spoke to Mr.. Cornelly, Of the
Gaulois, an authority on the Papal policy
who has just written = book on the subject
Mr.. Cornelly found that many Cardinals a
Rome favored Cardinal Gibbons of Balti
more as Lee's successor, believing the Unit
ed States would support the struggle for thu
restoration Of the temporal power of Rome
The objections to choosing . Pope from any
European state are many and, of course
political. Mr.. Vidal thinks, according t
what be has heard In Italy, that the mos
popular and least Objectionable choice
-o.ls no Ca-dinal Taschereau of Quebec
Cardinal Gibbons is not available owing t
him representing = Democracy. Cardina
Taschereau, on the other hand, occupies
unique and strong position IS . British sub
ject, and yet one who would be regarded b.
France as a Frenchman. He would thu
elicit the sympathy and support of two pow
erful nations,

A CHINESE STREET FIGHT,
Portland H;ghbinders Drop Each Other Lively

PORTLAND, Oregon, Dec. 2.-To.day q
bloody fight took place in the streets of this
city between two factions of Chinese high
binders. The trouble between the two
crowds had been brewing for some time,
Thursday a street fist fight occurred between
several highbinders and this afternoon q
sanguinary meeting took place on the streets.
About twenty Cinnamon, all armed with
pistols, participated. Over fifty shots were
exchanged and the row lasted some ten min.
utes. Four highbinders were shot down and
two others were badly wounded. The four
were removed to the hospital where one
died very soon after. The other three are
wounded fatally and cannot live. The two
other men were carried away during the
fight with their countrymen and cannot be
found by the police. Several more are be.
lieved to be wounded. Five bighbinde rs
have been arrested who are charged with be-
ing connected with the bloody affair. At
the time the streets were filled with crowds,
but nore of the spectators we're struck by
the shots. The most intense excitement
prevails in Chinatown, where several thous-
and Chinese are congregated. It is feared
the trouble is not yet ended. The bloody
fight is due to hatred caused by rivalry Of
interests between the factions.

Candidates for the speakership.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-There are now in
the field three open candidates for Speaker
of the House; Mckinley, of Ohio, Cannon,
of Illinois, and Reed, of Maine. It is with.
in only aday or two that Reed and Mckinley
have acknowledged themselves candidates.
Now they are willing; they are Sin the hands
of their friends which is equivalent to an
admission that they will make . fight. The
friends ofthe other candidates say that Reed
is handicapped by the fact that he ONE
from the east. 1t was we'll enough, they say,
to give him = complimentary caucus nomi-
nation when the Republicans were in the
minority, but they don't think the Repnbli.
can party can give the Speakership to Maine
under existing political conditions. The
contest between these candidates promise to
be . lively one and there are several dark
horses in the field ready to join and make
= race if the leaders are crowded off the
track.

COMMISSIONER BLACK estimates the aver
age age of the Union veterans at So years,
and their average death age At Sc years.
Many of them, destitute and dependent, are
now in poor. houses or living by charity out
side of them. There is no duty devolviDg
on the United States greater than that of
passing the dependent pension bill, which
gives all such, whose dependency has not
been induced by their own vicious habits, a
pension Of IS per month. A very large pro-
portion of them are decrepis from wounds or
disease incurred during their service, and
cannot, under the rules established,
prove up under the existing pension laws.
With average lives of but four years more,
it looks As though Congress should speedily
pass the bill, unless it wishes the majority
to die before they can receive the benefit.
The United States promised every man who
enlisted $13 per month. 1t paid him in
greenbacks that were at times discounted
over 60 per cent. Congress held that all its
bonds were payable in gold or its equivalent,
and is so paying them. If 1t would keep
like faith with its soldiers, and make good
the loss they incurred by receiving payment
in paper, the amount would many times
more than pay oil the expense that will be
incurred under the dependent" bill. m

CANADIAN ANNEXATION.

Senator Sherman Thinks Very Favorably of It.
NEW YORK, Dec. lin an interview with
the Suns Washington correspondent, Sena-
tor Sherman, speaking of q union between
Canada and the United States, said: "My
belief in the future common destiny of the
two English-speaking nations Of America
my failure to find a less radical remedy for
the perennial occasions of serious disputes
between The two countries. The fisheries
dispute and the question of our right to offer
transit Of American goods over Canadian
railroads are = type of the disputes that have
vexed the two nations for a century, and
will continue to disturb them so long as the
present conditions exist.
"To get rid of these questions we must get
rid Of the frontier. l studied the proposal
for commercial reciprocity only to b con-
vinced that it was illusory and impracticatle.
Political union is another thing. The ad-
vantages it offers are more equal. Canada
would gain all the advantages which recip-
rocity promises her. The advantages of
political consolidation with Canada to the
United States are not less palpable and OBJ
vious. If less immediate they will be even
greater in the long rum. The political adj
vantages of union are emphasized by the
present troubles over the fisheries, railroad
transit and canal tolls. These and other
occasions of border dispute would be re.
moved, aud . most grave ]provocation Of dis
pute and irritation taken out of our diplo-
matte relations"
Sherman continued by saying that the
state Of public feeling is ripe for the serious
consideration of the question in both coun-
tries. On the Canadian side the favorable
opinion is strongest in Manitoba and the
Northwest. In this country the only oppo-
sition would be from the East. But the pre-.
ponderance of power lies west of the Allie
ghenies and in the South, and both these
great sections are favorable to the movement.
The correspondent points out the signif-
canoe of these utterances in view of the
likelihood that Sherman will become Secre-
retarv of State under HARRISON,

THE Age, Of which Councilman Will. Ken

That now is = very proper time for those
having suggestions to make as to new or
remedial legislation at the coming Session
should do so 10 through the press; that it
is not we'll to leave the suggestion of meas
ures until the session begins, and That pre-
vious discussion Of measures in the press
would be of much benefit. The columns of
the New NORTHWEST are at the disposal Of
the public in proposing legislation and sub
hitting the reasons why it should be enac-
ted. Let the public hear from those who
have thought of legislation that would be
for the general welfare.
