On careful examination of the law
requiring voters to register for
general elections it is found that the law
makes each incorporated town separate
voting precinct FOR county and state
elections as well as municipal elections,
and that all voters living in an incorpo-
rated town must register before voting
at any election, whether such town has
$50 voters or not, but in precincts out
side of incorporated towns no registra-
ton is required unless there are $50
voters therein. This requires a change
in the voting precincts of the county,
and for that purpose the board OF county
commissioners were in special session
this week. 1t is the duty of the mayor
of all incorporated towns to cause book
for registration to be opened at once,
and the clerk of the town is made the
clerk of registration. A failure on the
part of any incorporated town to comply
with the law will disfranchise the citi-
zens of the town at the fall election.

The bill shutting the lotteries out Of
the mails has been favorably reported to
the Senate, and as soon as the tariff bill
is disposed of it will be taken up and
passed.
It is thought that the bill prohibiting
dealing in options on farm products has
been shelved for the session, but its
friends are still working to have day
assigned to it.
The conference committee on the
river and harbor bill has made its re-
port; the amount appropriated is slight

but the bill now carries nearly $25, 000,-

1900, 600, Bushels of Wheat.

The wheat yield in Whitman county
alone is estimated at 100000 bushels,
and acreage under cultivation is less
than one-fourth of the tillable land.
That but illustrates what an immense
population Washington is capable of
sustaining. The big crop means pros
perity for the farmers, merchants, and
all others. 1t also means that millions
of dollars will flow into the country and
quicken the pulse Of business in general.
Farmers will be enabled to pay their
debts, and merchants theirs. More
agricultural instruments will be pur-
chased, luxuries provided, and homes
beautifed. 70 do that will require in
creased work by manufacturers, laborers,
and mechanics. This is certainly a
prosperous year before Eastern Wash
ington.

The Chinese Are Going.

CHICAGO, Sept 6.-F A. Bee of San
Francisco, who has been consul for many
years for the Chinese empire, is in the
city. Mr.. Bee has nothing but American
blood in his veins, but nevertheless he is
a Chinese nobleman. The emperor
crowned him viscount some time since,
and later made MIN count. Lately he
attained the title of Sir Knight, the
next to the highest decoration ever be-
slowed in the Chinese diplomatic service.
Mr.. Bee is the only American in the
Chinese diplomatic service, and there
has been but one other Burlingame, Of
historic fame. AS one of the leading
San Francisco attorneys, Mr.. Bee was
called upon to defend the rights of the
California Chinese colony during and
preceding the Dennis Kearney agitation
and the sand lot riots. In this way he
attained great influence with that people.

Just about II, 900 more have returned to
China than have come over in that time.
This talk of the Scoot law not being

the federal election bill has been laid
aside for time, and it is hardly prob
able that any thing will be done with it

voting and intimidation of voters will be
short, as tho demand for honest elections

SPEAKER REED, of Maine, was re-
elected to congress by one of the larg-
est majorities even given in the state.
This is the first public endorsement of
the new precedent established by this
congress, that the majority and not the
MAJORITY must rule. II the house
should be democratic next term, the
democrats will benefit by the rule, but
the principle will be right just the same.
Because disgraceful rule has become
venerable by age that is no reason for
its continuance. While the old prec-
edent has been destroyed new one has
been set which will last as long as right
end justice shall prevail.

GEORGE TURNER may now PROFOUND
to himself the question "Were my sup
porters friends or enemies? ?" If friends
he should pray to be delivered from
them. If enemies he deserves the pun
Ishment he has received for being SO
easily duped. Three months ago Mr..
Turner stood in the estimation Of the
people of Washington as a man. of des-
tiny in the state. None would dispute
his ability, which alone would have
placed him high in the councils of his
party. His ability still remains, but the
peoples respect therefor has fallen to
zero. He is now held to be a man de-
sirous of Office, his desire binding his
political judgment, which makes him I'M
tit to be leader, and every claim he
had upon the party is now lost, perhaps
forever. Mr.. Turner has our sympathy,
and he must redeem himself before he
can expect political support.

THERE seems to be a m1sunderstand-
ing regarding Mr., Blaine's policy of re-
clprocacy. The democratic press of the
United States endorsed the policy, when
first announced, and were loud in their
claims that Blaine was changing his
views on the tariff. Having made the
endorsement the democratic party will
be estopped from denouncing it, al
though they find it in line with repubh-
can principles and fulfllment of the
pledge made at the Chicago convention,
to reform the tariff list. 1t has ever been
the policy of the republican party to
protect all kinds of home industry, be it
farming, mining, manufacturing or what
else tat tends to the development and
progress of the country, the people and
the nation. When it is found that a
certain commodity cannot be produced
In the United States in sufficient ouan-
titles to supply at least the greater part
OF the home consumption. then a tariff
on such commodity is tax. paid nv
the people, without benefit being de-
rived therefrom. Such tariff is for rev
enue only, and is against the principles
of the republican party. On revising the
tariff list it is found that there are MANY
articles carrying duty which should he
free, because the United States cannot
produce them in sufficient quantities
Now, many of these commodities are the
staple products of foreign countries, and
if the tariff is taken of, the country pro-
duclng them Will receive the benefit of
our free market, but those countries re-
euire our farm and manufactured pro,
ducts and now charge US duty thereon
when imported by them. Instead of
opening our ports voluntarily, Mr.. Blaine
proposes to make trade with those
countries which will be benefited by our
free market in such commodities as we
desire to make free because of our in
ability to produce them,. and in consid-
Grafton of our making their psoducts
free here they will make our products
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1890-09-13

free in their country. The United States
consumes ninety-eight per cent. of the
product of her own farms and exports
only two per cent. thereof. By Blaine's
policy we will open markets for more
than this two per cent. and still retain
the protection which has advanced the
United States ahead OF any nation in
the world. Compare this stroke of policy
and this principle to the one that would
destroy our home market and give us
nothing in Its place, which would be the
direct result of democratic free trade.

New YORK, Sept. THE riotous con-

many complaints made at the barge

on the outward voyage are kept busy

turn home with nothing to do trouble
begins. The latest case of trouble raised
by cattlemen was on the steamship Am
sterdam, which arrived to-day. There
were sixteen in the crowd, and their
actions were 80 outrageous that the
steamship company has decided not to
ship any more of them as passengers.

PROF. NJ. G.. MULHALL, the British
statistican and free trader, in a recent
report, says that while the English free
trade hasbeen beneficial to manufactures
it has been ruinous to the farmers, and
he gives table showing the decline in
agriculture in the past fifty years. Those
who are familiar with the history of
England in the '40s will remember, dur
ing the agitation of free trade, it was
admitted to be against the best interests
Of the farmers, but desiring to give the
greatest good to the greatest number,
and the farmers being in the minority
their claims could not be considered.
In the face of this, however, there are
Americans who advocate free trade for
the farmers benefit.
