The People Appreciate Squire.

CpUkdHe CpUhesIHdH
Senator Squire received q cordial welcome
from his colleagues at Washington yesterday,
and he deserves it, He has probably done more
hard work during the recess than any other
member of the Senate. He had perfect right to
take few weeks Of rest, but Senator Squire is
not the kind of a man to shirk any duty for the
sake of his personal ease. For a month he has
been gathering evidence to submit on the snb-
ject of foreign immigration, having been able
to spend but few days at his home in Seattle.
The question of immigration is overshadowed
in importance by no other national issue, for on
the correct determination of 1t largely depends
the wages and comforts Of the American laborer.
The people understand and appreciate Senator
Squire, and estimate at their true worth the jeal-
Gus sneers of his Tacoma vilifiers.

SOUTHERN ESTIMATE OF NORTH
ERN INTELLIGENCE.

The President, in his late message, re-
marked that 1.-THE probable effectiveness
of the elestion bill is evidenced by the
character of the opposition to it." Com
menting upon this the New Orleans Times
Democrat says: "He probably means that
we are opposing this bill because we fear
that il viii turn over the southern states,
or at least large number of congressional
districts, 20 the Republicans. Here the
narrow-minded partisan is mistaken. We
do not believe. and have never believed,
that the Force bin would give the Repub-
hcans two more congressman in the south
than they have now. The southern op-
position TO that measure is not through
fear, but because the south sees that the
aims and purposes of the bill are to invite
disturbances and race riots, TO the great in
jury Of this section and indeed of the
whole country" And il declares that "a
desire to preserve peace and order" is the
sole ground of southern opposition.
Such u;terances indicate the old ante
bellum southern contempt for northern
intelligence. If they are not afraid that a
fair election would lessen their control of
representation, why do they make every
other political consideration suhservient
20 opposition TO this measure? If they
donot fear its probable effectiveness, why
should its enactment cause trace disturb
ances and riots" or affect .'peace and or
der?' On their very face these declara-
tions are inconsistent and bear the ear
marks of deceit.
Either this or the implication is that if
passed the law cannot be enforced; that
1t viii be resisted riotously and that at
tempts TO enforce it will be subversive of
peace and order because they will offer
diSorderly and warlike resistance.
In disputing the Presidents assertion
the Ismes-pesaecTat gives the best possible

Sultan City Journal.

remarkable example of animal instinct was
given about two weeks ago by a cat belonging to
the Silver Queen Mining Company. The cat
having caught mouse at the Silver Queen
camp, ran with it for q half-mile to Marsh's
camp, and gave it to little kitten at the latter
camp. Then she returned to the Silver Queen
camp, leaving the kitten to look after the well
fare of the mouse. The act appears more re-
markable when it is understood that at the time
there was about foot of snow on the ground,
and the night was dark and stormy and the road
between the two camps rough and mountain

In so far as the ordinance respecting the
saloon limit proposes to invade the resi-
dence district of the city it is Objectionable,
but it has another motive that is not OBJ
iectionable, namely, to take in section in
the southern part of the city where saloons
viii exist, license or no license. 1t is far
better that liquor should be sold under
license than illicitly, and it is perfectly
legitimate to extend the limits to include
the whole Grant street district But there
certainly should be no extension of the
lines TO include any part of the resi-

1t is reported from Washington City that
government experts have discovered a
process by which sugar may be manu-
featured protitably from sorghum. If
this discovery is, in fact, all that it is sup
posed to be, it well add new and very
profitable interest to the state of Washing
ton. There are large areas in this state
especially adapted to the growth of sor-
ghum. In the Yakima valley especially,
sorghum has been grown profitably ever
since the settlement of the country. Up
to this time the demand for sorghum.
which, of course, has been produced only
in its crudest form, has been limited, and
its production has been carried on as an
incident in general farming, rather than as
a special crop, but if by the new process it
shall become practicable to grow sorghum
for sugar, the industry could be immedi-
ately made a very large and important one

The death of Sitting Bull ends the race
of great Indian rulers and warriors. The
Indians are now too few and too weak to
wage an important war and of course can
never again develop great leader. There
are many well meaning people in New
England who view the passing of the
Indian" with regret, but we who live in
the West and who have viewed the Indian
at close range, are profoundly glad that
his race is fading and that his day is past.

Christmas Notices for Presents.


Here are some Christmas notices for the
use of those who, with needle, pencil, or
brush, themselves make the gifts they
send to friends:
"It is the blessed Christmas tide,
The Christmas lights are all aglow."
Whittier.
"Above our heads the Joy bells ring,
Without the happy children sing"
Whittier.
"Kindle the Christmas brand, and then
Till sunne-set let it burn"

"Give the honor to this day
That sees December turn'd to May
-Hcvrick.
"Let winter breathe fragrance forth
Like as the purple spring.

And all had welcome true"

At Christmas in each hall,
Good fires to curb the cold
And meat for great and SMALL

The killing of Sitting Bull is not likely
to affect the Indian situation. The old
man had lost much of his authority with
his people and in the event of serious
troubles would probably have been less
effective as leader than several others of
his fellow fuees.

Retire. Marry. Return" Those were
the three words telegraphed by Andrew
Carnegie to his warm personal friend
Charles Stewart Parnell, at the outset of
the imbroglio. Those three words con-
tanned bushels of sound philosophy and
good advice. But it unfortunately hap
pened that their recipient was not Just
then in philosophic mood.

OF the 10 persons listed by the New York
World as worth in the aggregate 81 So, 1000, in
sums ranging from five millions to one hundred
and twenty-five millions each, the New York
Tribune notes that thirty-fve of them are worth
one thousand and eighty-f five millions, and of
these only two-one worth fifteen and the other
twenty millions-made their money out of man
ufactnres protected by the tariff. Less than
twenty of the whole list, aggregating one hun
dred and forty-two millions, made their money
in that way, which leaves 102, worth fifteen hun
dred millions, who made their fortunes outside
of protected industries. This is telling rejoin-
der to the hackneyed Democratic contention
that it is the tariff alone that "makes the rich
richer and the poor poorer"

aft you wish good city government you must
pay the price," says the Philadelphia Ledger,
and adds; SIT seems to be again advisable to
remind the voters of Philadelphia that it is with
the municipal government as it is with almost
everything else in this world derived from the
agency OF man-you cannot get anything for
nothing-that is, If the thing you want is of any
value IT 1t has value you must pay for it In
some FORM" 1t would seem from the context
that the Philadelphians have at one time and
another attempted to secure services for less
than they were honestly worth and have been
plundered by wholesale as a consequence.

himself.

ST. JOHNS. N. F.. June THE news
papers are outspoken on the subject of the
fisheries troubles. The Herald says Eng
land must fight France or abandon her
British-Amefican possessions.
The Cotonist says: The British naval
officer at this station should be clad with
petticoats instead of breeches and
adorned with a lawn tennis racquet. The
British ships in Newfoundland waters
are here ostensibly for fishery protection,
but in reality they are here to bolster up
French claims to the fisheries and play
lawn tennls. The furious address Of the
legislature to the queen relative to the
fishery troubles here, published several
days ago, has not yet passed the legisla-
ture. The document was a rough draft
OF the proposed address, a copy of which
it Is supposed was purloined by someone
in the government printing Office. The
address may be modified considerably by
the legislature before being passed.
