CoNrLICTING TESTIMONY.

Our ingenious friend, the editor
Of the Pioneer, has stood all he can
stand of this sort of thing, and now
he gives notice Of his revolt. He
sat out some time ago to study the
political situation, and carefully
conned the columns of his ex-
changes to learn the drift of public
opinion. He has prosecuted this
labor for two months, and now
gives up in IA hopeless state Of con-
fusion. The psalmist David ex-
claimed In his haste, "All men are
liarsW and this modern quill driver
under equal provocation bursts out,
"a political newspaper is the most
unreliable of ALL" He gives his
reasons for this belief, too. "Take
the Oregonian and the Examiner,
for instance" he says, tone re-
publican and the other democratic
paper. Since the campaign opened
the Oregonian has published ac-
counts of life long democrats who
have gone over, from one man to n
whole club, to the republican party
and who have decided to vote for
Harrison. The Examiner has pub
llshed columns of names of men
and clubs who have been republi-
cans all their lives, but who have
declared their intention to vote for
Cleveland. In these two papers, If
all they say Is true, there are about |
twenty million republicans who |
will vote for Cleveland, and twenty |
million democrats who will vote for
Harrison, and they expect their
readers TO believe it,"
This il taxing theaverage readers
somewhat severely, but
our journalistic friend is excited,
and he ovet-states his case. We
have all along maintained that dis
Integration is crumbling up our
political parties, and the atoms that
become detached form re-comblna-
lions. The Chicago platform Is

lion, IA many OF the principles IL

THE ROsLYN COAL MINES.

The visit Of Gov. Semple, Of Wash
ington Territory, and other officials
to the Roslyn mines, as detailed in
the Oregonian yesterday, throws
further light on that menacing labor
disturbance. Alexander Ross seems
to have owned the coal property,
but he has lately sold out to the
Northern Pacific Railroad Co.
Under Rnss's ownership the opera
harmonlously; eight hour shifts
was the rule and living rate paid
for the coal mined.
The railroad company put In f.
&. Worthington rs manager, and
his purpose evidently was To in
troduoe the blightlng system that
prevails In the coal mining region
of Pennsylvania. There are up
wards Of 700 white miners, many of
them with their families, In the
neighborhood of the mines, and
they naturally were dcsirous 10 know
what terms their new employers had
20 offer them. Here the trouble
began. Manager Worthingtou is
evidently bulldozer, and opposed
Ia all labor unions, He was provoke
ingly indefinite In his offers. He

Ia open another mine and operate IL,
40 as to afford employment for all
but he could tolerate no Limitation
of hourA The man that worked
the longest would earn the most,
and no one need feel uneasy about
making n living, The miners OBJ
lected 10 this placing their interest
bllndly In the hands Of one man,
and they refused 10 work until
"a proper guaranty was given.
Upon this lac repaired eastward, |
gathered up four or Ave scoe color

THE POPE INSISTS on THE SENTIMENTS EXPRESSED
IN THE FORMER DECREE.
Dublin, July ia Papal enclyclical letter was
read to-day in ali the Catholic churches in the
diocese of Dublin. In it the Pope says he has
heard with regret that excited meetings have been
held at which inconsiderate and dangerous opn-
ions regarding the recent Papal Decree have been
uttered, even the authority of the decree itself
being unspared lie has seen with
pain forced interpretations put on the
Decree and statements made that it
was prepared without sufficient inquiry having
previously been made. The Pope, strongly deny
ing this assumption. states that the decree was
based upon the most complete information; that
previous to its issuance he held interviews with
Irish Bishops on the subject and sent tried and
trusted lcgate to Ireland 10 inquire into and re-
port on the true condition of affairs. His Holi-
ness reiterates his affection for the Irish people,
and says he has always urged them to keep within
the bounds OF justice and right. He refers TO a
communication to Cardinal McCabe in S81 add
ing: AS the people were led with gradually
increasing vchemencc in the pursuit of their de-
sircs, and as there were not wanting those who
daily famed the flame, the decree became neccs
sity.'
The Bishops he says, must remove all miscon-
cepton, and leave no room for doubt to the
force of the decree. The whole system of the
Plan of Campaign and boycotting is condemned
as unlawful
A letter from Archbishop Walsh, of Dublin.
which accompanied tie Popc's letter, WAS also
read. The Archbishop says:
The agitation referred to IS ended under the resolu
tions adopted by the bishops The hope has arisen
within the past few days that before the close of the present
session Parliament viii provide for the more urgent needs
