whether he Is as sweet a plum TO pluck
as Searle was. lie may be just as great
pugilist as Searle is q sculler, but this
point must be settled in the orthodox
twenty-four foot ring. Searle was well
worthy OF backing. and the Australians
knew it. but whether they believe Sli-

time arrives for putting up the iinal ~

independent of the main stakes. Slavn
il well put together; he is clever with
the muiilers, but how he will perform
with the raw 'uns is a hard matter TO
Judge. Several OF the Australian
party are confident that he will beat
Smith. but they have not seen the latter
perform, and il they had witnessed ia
desperate battle fought nearly two
years ago with Jake kilrain. they might
possibly change their opinion. Smith

Frank Stevenson. who is 10 engineer II.

A BAREFACED LIE.

IT is an absolute fact that the "pau
per laborer" which we hear so much
about in England, can buy more for
his davis work than the well paid
American laborer with what he re-
ceives for his days work.-St0te Dem
OcTGt, z.
THE above is a sample of slush
from the Democratic paper at Salem,
Gov. Pennoyer's official organ and
the presumed exponent of the Demo
cratic party of the state.
1t is SO palpable q lie and demon
strates ignorance on the part of the
Democrat so completely that it requires
no mo rethan publication to evince
its falsity.
Intelligent Democrats will doubt
less repudiate so absolute an endorse
ment of free trade, and will feel like
squelching the indiscreet editor who
champions free trade so openly and
foolishly.
The following, in connection with
the extract at the head of this article,
furnishes good reading; bearing in
mind the wages the same class of
workmen receive in this country.
This is from the sworn statement of
inspector Nathaniel Mckay, sent to
make impartial report on this very
matter:
1 visited London docks at 6:30 one
morning to hear the roll-call for labor
ers. A thousand men were clamOring
for employment. / asked one laborer
what he got. He said AID. per hour
These are what we call 'longshoremen
A carpenter at work on a building
near by said he was getting Cd. pei
hour, and his assistant was paid Sgd
The carpenter told me he paid lbs. pei
week for rent. His assistant said that
he paid 4s. Cd. for one room and
privileges" This carpenter added
that his wife worked when she could,
and got Is. a day. / waited until s
o'clock to see the workmen on this
building eat their breakfast. Four oi
them had banded together, made some
tea in a big kettle, and brought out
bread and butter only. "That's al
for breakfast, sir" said one. He eX
planned that they usually had meat
