ONE REASON WHY.

The considerations urged to account
foe The large immigration into this
country are numerous,a and not the least
important is one seldom advanced;
the fact that the debt of many leading
foreign nations is increasing as that of
the United States steadily decreases.
The tabulated statement prepared by
the census bureau for the decade OF
1850 10 1890 shows that the former has
increased more than two thousand
million dollars; the latter has decreased
half that amount. The fact that this
heavy increase of foreign Indebtedness
is due largely to preparations for war
furnishes a further inducement to
seek u land ofpeace and comparatively
small national expenditures.

THE EISTEDDFOD!
VERY LARGE ATTENDANCE AT
LAKESIDE TO-DAY.
1000 FROM TOWN THIS MORNING.
Payday Scenes-Lockup Crowded
Last Observation-Disclosures
Run In-Personal Mention
and Other Items.

A special train Of twelve cars, packed
like sardines in a box, left the local z. & II
depot at 9 o'clock this morning for Lake
side, the scene of the State Eisteddfod.
There were 2CJ from Centralia in charge of
Capt. Ted Reese. They came over the
Lehigh Valley road rs far as Shenandoah.
1t is estimated that there we're from 1000
to 100 people on board. Agent Davis,
several minutes before the train left, had
then sold nearly 1000 tickets, and many got
on board without a ticket, not having time
TO secure them.
Taking Shenandoah as a criterion, there
will be fully 5000 to 10000 people present at
this famous resort to-day.

Light at Last.

1t is gratifying to see that the Lehigh
Valley Railroad Company has at last
realized the necessity of more, or, rather,
some light at the local depot. 1t has
abandoned the way-back gas light and has
replaced it with an arc incandescent light.
Very good, but the company is still behind
the age. There should be more light at the
north and west sides of the depot. This
place is one of the most dangerous in the
town after dark,

MCKINLEY

And there is another thing about
the Republican party: 1t was new
against its country or its flag. Not
for one minute of our thirty five years
of existence have we ever been sus-
pected of being against the govern
ment. And that cannot be said of any
other party.
"And there is one thing more I
want to say of a protective tariff: 1t
has never pulled down; it has always
builded up, and for this reason, if for
noue other, the protective tariff is the
true friend of every girl and boy strug-
Cling upward.
"Now they are declaring that we
make only a little tin. What could
any n expect, when the law protect
ing this industry only went into OPP
Grafton the first Of this month? The
wonder is that we are making it at all.
"Just what they are saying now, my
friends, of the tin plate industry, they
said twenty years ago of the steel rail,
pottery, and glass, and cutlery manu-.
features, and now these areamong our
greatest industries; we lead the world
to-day in steel rails, and our plate glass
and pottery cannot be beat in the
world.
"Thirty years of this policy has
given us the greatest government in
the world, and to-day we beat the
world in manufactures, agriculture
and mining. When this protective
policy went into effect we were a small
nation. We are in the first rank now

CIGARETTE TRUST,
The J0bbers Protest Against the
New Rebate.

The wholesale dealers In cigarettes of
this city have organized to protect them
selves against the American Tobacco Com
pany, which is one of the greatest trusts in
the country.representing Il capital Of $50, 0OO,-
000 The trust controls tho leading brands
Of cigarettes which are used on this Coast
On last Monday the American Tobacco
Company issued an order allowing a rebate
of 80 cents per 1000 cigarettes to all retail
dealers, which would compel the jIbber, or
wholesale man, to issue and keep a record
OF retail certificates. This would require
the employment of additional help to keep
track of all the certificates issued, and, as
the Jpbber will get NJ benefit, he naturally
objects TO going to tae expense of keeping
books for the American Tobacco Company.
At the present time the jobber gets a re-
bate Of 30 cents per 1000 and the trust is
said to owe the jobbers of this city from
SIS, 600 to 100000 in rebates.
BOTH REBATES.
1t Is held that those firms which do Joint
retail and wholesale business can secure
both the 80 cents and 80 cents rebates by
selling the cigarettes TO themselves and
thus be enabled 10 undersell the jobberS
The trust does not bind itself to pay the
rebate, but reserves the right to refuse to do
so. In case retailer be found dealing in
any other brand of cigarettes than those
manufactured 10y the trust it will refuse to
to patrOnize monopoly. The trust has a so
so arranged to pay the rebates that it will
always owe something to the retailer. thus
enticing him TO continue his patronage. In
order that the rebate may be met the Amer
lean Tobacco Company has advanced the
price of cigarettes 20 cents per 1000.
AN ENERGETIC PROTEST
On Tuesday the wholesale dealers met at
the rooms OF the Board of Trade, about
| twenty-one firms being represented. At
this meeting ii was resolved 10 make an en-
thuslastlc protest against the action of the
trust as ruinous and unjust TO the jobbers.
The protest was drawn up and sent yester-
day t. the headquarters Of the trust in New
York.
At the local meeting. &C which W. P. Her
aid presided and Morris Feintuch acted as
secretary, the wholesale dealers were very
outs poken against the new order of the
trust. and the general sentiment WAS that
all lObbers should refuse TO handle the
goods of the trust should the order be per-
sisted in. Tie jobbers went so far as to saw
that they would prefer to lose the $4,000
rebates owing them rather than follow the
new orders. Should they refuse to hand g
the goods of the trust II would not pay the
rebates, as the payment is expressly made
optional.
The jobbers believe that the object of the
trust is 10 compel the retailer to deal exclu-
sively with itself. 1t Is said that dealers in
San Jose, Los Angeles. Sacramento and
Portland have Joined the jobbers in their
protest.

CON VENTION WORK.
Subscriptions Nearly Reach the
Required Sum.

The Finance Committee has nearly S4T, 900
In sight, and the committee named for that
purpose will go East to endeayOr to secure
the Republican National Convention. This
was the result of a hard days work among
the moneyed men of the city, and it is now
assured that $50, 900 will be in sight to-mor-
row night
There has been a change in the personnel
of the committee, and in place of K p
Hammond and j. d. Redding, it is prob
able that c. o. Alexander and ex- Mayor
Pond will 90 to Washington. This is due
to the fact that the two gentlemen fiji st
named have concluded that their business
affairs Will Tot allow OF their absence from
the city at this time
In discussing the matter last night Mr.
Hammond said: ut was impossible for
me to go, but had my time been my own |
should have gone, and was willing to pay
my own expenses. l see l am charged with
riding on passes That is not true, but
wish it were. L should be glad If Colonel
Croker would send me transportation, and
as for being in their employ. all l can say is
that | would like a retainer
The committee that has decided to go is
enthusiastic over the outlook, and are
sanguine of success. They look upon the
present movement as one filled with great
possibilities for California, and will do
everything within their power.
