be regarded and punished as ''sirnple rob
berry" and that the boycott" was an at
tack upon the property of employers.
1t was further decreed by this radi-
cal Jacobin republic that individual
liberty. either in the case OF en-
ployers or workmen, shall not be
attacked either by menace or by
violence, and ali combinations and gather
ings for such purpose shall be pun
ished as acts of sedition." The in
PRODUCER of this resolution stated that
it was called for by the action of
Of trade unions that were compelling work
men TO sign agreements to work at the
wages and during the hours fixed by the
union, and compelling them even to quit
their shops when they were contented
with the wages that they received. The
French republic of 1871 laid down the
principle that the days work for every
laborer was a matter of free contract for
the individual. Public opinion today in
both England and France is evidently
dominated by state socialism that was re-
pudiated by even the radical red Repub-
A-SaHS Oh ante d NcA4tN1I ago
Another curious exhibition Of state So
cialism is the platform of Keller. the head
of the Swiss Agrarian League. who de-
mands that the state shall be in all things
for the service of agriculture, but he has
no sympathy for other classes of laborers;
he would reduce all wages to the agricul-
tural level, and would suppress the uni
versities and simplify the schools to re-
duce the burden of the farmers. It is
clear that labor in Europe is
less reasonable in its demands
than 1t is in America, where an
entire freedom Of discussion through the
press puts TO early, painless death, good
deal of nonsense that would become in
cendiary agitation and idiotic legislation
in Europe. Poverty is not increasing in
America; it is not true that the rich are
growing richer, and the poor poorer. Few
are poor for lack OF work or sufficient
wages, and the relation of wages and the
cost of living is steadily changing in favor
of labor. OF the accumulated wealth of
individuals or corporations, it may be said
that in large way, by the principle of
rapid distribution and diffusion, every
laboring man is a partaker of the progress
OF the country in wealth.

THROW PHYSIC TO THE DOGS"
Electromagnetic Influence and It's
Effects on the Human System.

As the world advances in age and the
people become more enlightened, the old
schools of medicine gradually give way TO
modern science. The God-giyen powers of
electricity and magnetism supplant the
drastic drugs Of the pharmacopHia. The
''nostrums Internal" are only kept for
human gargoyles. Among the most
prominent professors of the new curative
age are Drs. Darrin. Woadrous 20 relate,
they are especially successful in curing all
nervous. chronic and private diseases,
such as Loss OF Manhood. Blood Taints,
Spermatorrhea. Seminal Weakness or loss
of desire of sexual power in man or
woman. All peculiar Female Troubles,
Leucorrhea, Displacement, ETC., with little
or no medicine. The certificates of cures
made by these celebrated physicians would
fiji volume. They embrace every disease
to which humanity is exposed. The rem
edies are painless. almost pleasant and in
fal.ible. Drs. Darrin are entitled 10 great
credit tor their almost miraculous dis
coyeries in the art of electromagnetic
healing. There is no durable known
malady that they cannot conquer, and will
under no circumstance take case that
they cannot cure or beneIt.
They have their offices in THE Nor
mandy" corner Third and James streets,
Seattle, Wash.
Office hours: 10 TO daily; evenings,
to s: Sundays, 10 to II. Consultation is
confidential and free. Charges reasonable.
Most cases can receive home treatment
after visit to the doctors office. In
quiries answered and circulars sent free.

In France the socislistic drift is seen in the
bill for pensiontng laborers, under which meas
ure all workmen who have served thirty years
and complied with the provisions of the bill will
be entitled TO an annual pension of not less than
$50 or more than s125 Every workman will be
considered to have accepted the terms of the
pension law unless he sends In disclaimer to
the competent authorities. The pension fund
will be supported to the extent of two-thirds by
the state, the other third will be borne equally
by employers and workmen. A mans contribu-
ton will be one cent for every working day for
a pension OF 500, and penny for pension be
excluded from the benefits of the law, and their
employers will have to pay on their behalf two
cents day, TO go to a special pension fund for
French workmen prematurely disabled.

Sheriff Stimson Arrests q Bear.
Can+arvilia Taadar

Near Sheriff Stimson's place Monday morning,
there was an exciting chase for two miles after
a black bear. in which sheriff Stimson, Jim
Hunter Bill Rhodes and VI. Woody participated
The chances OF escape were very small for the
bear against such determined pursuers, for no
sooner had they come within reach Of the ami
NAL than Woody cleverly lassoed him, when he
was held captive. Sheriff stimson, thinking the
bear was held tight, got close 10 it, but the bear
did not seem to appreciate such intimacy for it
sprang at the sheriff, grappled him uy the legs
and made sharp bite at his thigh. The others
immediately pulled him of, out not before the
bear had implanted his teeth in the sheriff
flesh To save further mishap Woody shot the
animal.
