POLITICS ON SUNDAY.
Ministers are Still Opposed 60 Sunday
Political Meetinge.

Ministers ara Still Opposed 20 Sunday
Political Meetings.
The Ministerial Association still main
tains is opposition to political meetings
on Sunday, - win be seen by the following
statement:
We are glad that the brethren have decided
% emphatically that the meeting in the Armory
Sunday evening win not be . political gather
ing. Remarks made BY prominent worker In
the Prohibition party. together with the known
and widely advertised mission of the speaker to
the Coast, We thought to be sufficient foun-
dalton for our action. To say that no meeting
was ever held In America on Sabbath in the
interests Of the Prohibition party will not bear
candid investigation.
The selling Of stock in the state Temperance
Alliance on the Sabbath, If not IN evil It has at
least that appearance, and ought to be investi-
gated.
No ono who expects the support and presence
of the pastors in the city should arrange Q mass
meeting at the hour of services in the churches
without first consulting the pastors in regard to
the advisabillty OF il.
There is . tendency 20 put alliances ana
unions in the fsont and the churches In the
background. when these want TO be heard the
churches are expected to close their doors and
the ministers keep dsent
webeieve this il for the not best interests of the
cause Of Christ q any special work connected

The Journeymen Tailors Go Out ON
The journeymen tailors went ont on .
strike yesterday in all the shops except in
the Imperial Clothing house. Price & Ma
ginnis. and J. Bernstein, the latter signing
the journeymen's schedule yesterday.
The merchant tailors say they have no in
tention Of giving in or adopting the prices
adopted by the Union. The journeymen
are equally emphatic in their declaration
of defiance against the schedule adopted
by the Merchant Taiiors' Exchange. The
union held meeting yesterday afternoon
TO discuss the situation. 1t was decided to
hold two meetings today. one this morning
and one this afternoon. to consider the
advisahiiity of starting . cooperative shop.
Several journeymen seen last evening said
fley believed the merchant tailors must
give in before long. As for the second and
third grades proposed the union would
not consider them until the bosses signed
the first-ciass schedule. They felt easy
about the situation.
The cornice workers are still out and
propose to stay out until the bosses COME
to terms, which the workmen say viii not
be long. It Was reported that some of the
bosses were in Tacoma yesterday con-
ferring with the trade about the situation,
strike being on there. One of the bosses
has received word that twelve men had
left Minneapolis and would be here Mon
day to be distributed among the four
shops.

Raupman Brothers still refuse to accede to
the demands Of the plumbers, and viii Sc

day that the frst-named firm agreed to
grant to their employees at-Anacortes eight
hours, bat the union called out the men
until the union was reorganized. F. A.
Schlumpf. speaking of the situation yester-
day. said:
Il think it will be three or four weeks be-
fore the two firms give in, but they will
eventually. / look upon this eight-hour
movement as beneficial in the long run, rs
it will be the means of forcing as employ

A short time ago an amusing in
cident occurred at Freiburg in Ger

front of shop window, examining the
wares exhibited for sale, when the
owner Of the establishment, impatient
at ther not entering his premises, told
them sharply that they had been there
long enough and requested them 10
move on. The ladies walked away
without word of remonstrance. Half

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Tbe irriga-
tion fight has now been transferred e.

The sundry civil bill returned from
the senate with the arid land with.
drawsl stricken out WIS the cause CT

of Montana, came to the front ~ =

chairman Of the committee On sppro-
priations. intended 10 deny. Consid
erable kicking rnsueu before 1t was
finally agreed that two and one-half
hours should be devoted to the irriga
ton paragraph. Then Carter tpok
the floor, In control Of the time on one
side, and proceeded In support Of the
senate amendment. Carter was in fa-
vor OF restoring the land to settlement
BY the people unhsmpered by Po~ell's
restrictions. Carter had map brought
10 showing the lands Withdrawn from
settlement. With this hs explained
to the house the injustice that was be-
ing done the entire western country;
that one hundred thousand settlers
who had taken lands since OFT. 2,
1888, were now denied the right to
perfect title to the lands they bad oc-
cupied; that the men who had voted
TO withdraw the lands did not know
the magnitude Of the subject or appre-
ciate what they were dong. He
claimed that irrigation and the con-
troll Of reservoirs and reservoir cites
would be adjusted as the mining laws
Were adjusted. The constituents OF
the various states In which there were
arid lands, protected the sites end
canals. Regarding the report that
spectators would get control of the
lands, he said that anyone with ex.
perienc. in that country could refute
that statement. The people them.
selves would look after that, but the
people could do nothing when the
land was tied up BY the act of 1888,
and reserved from settlement. Can.
