To THE DEMONSTRATING just arrived from an

The country in the vicinity of ALVIN is yerv
fine, Astounding In excellent timber and rich
agricultural lands Especially on the west of
Allyn and the bay in the vicinity OF Lake Mason,
Union City and shelton, there is fine soil and
an abundance of the very best timber.
Indeed, the extent of this fine land and tim.
Der Is not circumscribed by the places indicated,
but extends west throughout both Mason and
Chehalis counties. Boats are now running
from Tacoma to Allyn aud way points Survey
ors are now running line from Allyn to Union
City, with q view OF constructing line OF rail-
road between these two points. A line of rail-
road is also contemplated between ALLYN and
Shelton, to connect the Gray's Harbor railroad.

Tacoma News.
What are you going to do about it7 Presum-
ing that by this time you have recovered from
the surprise occasioned By Superintendent OF
the Census Porter's fiat regarding the popula-
lions OF Tacoma and Seattle, we are anxious to
know, you know, just what you propose to do
under the circumstances.
Whose fault is this? The Chamber of Com
merce has been in trance this long time. The
city council evidently has been under the intiu-
ence OF an opiate. We were told when the
enumeration began that it was all ar ranged
that the Chamber OF Commerce was see ing to ii,
and that superintendent Porter had agreed to
include the Cakes addition and Fern Hill dis
tricts In the count. This would have given Ia
coma $1,000 population. Somebody has lied
Who was it? The Ntius should like to know.
AS to Mr.. Porter's decision, we have only to
say that he iaisified the returns of the former
census, that he is a corrupt man and there was
no reason to expect common justice from man
of his stripe. The Nesos objected to him at the
time Of his appointment and gave good reasons
for its obj .ctions at the time. Seattle has the
political influence at the national capital. POr-
ter never fails to turn up in the camp OF the
powerful-he is sort of political camp fol-
lower and can be depended upon to do the dirty
work OF those who are in power II is a little
peculiar to those who know the facts surround
ing the enumeration in the two cities that Sc
attles census should have been increased and
Tacoma's reduced by Parter. There was not
wanting evidence to show the dishonest meth
DDS pursued at Seattle, and there was not q
whisper of corruption against Tacoma's census.
However. we do not mead padded returns and
the help OF a dshonorable man, the creature of
the administration, to assist " in our race for
supremacy.

NO NEED FOR p1NKERroN.

However opinions may differ about the
justifying reasons which have been offered
by the Knights of Labor for their late
strike on the New York Central railroad,
or however indisposed many citizens may
be to express or form any opinion upon
the subject, there is no room for differ
ences of opinion among dispassionate peo-
fair.
1t is an unwarranted reflection on the
success OF our governmental system, and
on the capacity of our people for self-gov-
eminent, and on our ability to establish
stable police regulations equal to any prob
able emergency, that in the richest and
most populous state of the Union, at points
easily accessible from the capitals of the
state and of the nation, there should arise
necessity for the employment of an un-
official and irresponsible force to interpose
with arms in the settlement of differences
between employers and their employees.
Rejecting that in each city of New York
there is regular police force. capable of
being increased by the authorities to meet
an emergency; and in each county sheriff
and constabulary force the former author
ICED to enroll every citizen in q posse conf
fatus when the preservation of the peace
may require it, and to call upon the militia
or for United States troops in an extrem-
ity, there is no conceivable excuse for call
ing in an outside organization, at least not
until all or some of the regular agencies
have been appealed to and refused or failed
to meet the crisis.
1t has been alleged and quite generally
credited that in cases of this kind it has
been a practice of Allen Pinkerton. in
which he has taken pride as the chief ele-
ment of his success, to enlist in his force
men who are brave to the point of desper-
alton, and utterly reckless of human life
in carrying out their orders. Such men
are only found readily and in considerable
numbers in the slums and among the
criminal classes.
1t would be humiliating to admit that in
any orderly and well organized state of
this Union circumstances can arise to
justify the organization and employment
of such force as this; and most certainly
not until all regular and orderly means
had been exhausted. In most civilized
communities il is regarded as wanton ex-
ercise OF authority to arm the police and
authorize them to fire into promiscuous
crowds in populous districts, or to give
such authority to sheriffs or other peace
officers, or TO the militia, or to national
troops, except in cases of direst need. to
meet an organized and armed instruction.
alike threatening to property and the pub
lie peace.
From neither side in this late contro.
versy has there been any report or pretense
that any such condition as this has existed
or been threatened. The state of New
York has not been insulted nor the people
of the whole country mortified by the an
nouncement that there was a state Of af-
fairs with which the regular and RESPONSE.
Bile police and other peace forces, the
militia and the army. could not cope. The
