htatlon, or the payment Of it, be-
fore a man can vote. Aud says
the Legislature was forced to
pass q law to have two ballot
boxes to carry it ont &c. The |
facts in the case are these; the
poll tax is a school tax and the
money derived from it never
leaves the county for dist. ibu.
ton. And while | don'C propose
to be champion Of this feature
Of making the sspaymeut of this
tax qualification to vote, | say
this, that the Constitution Of
this State gives the legislature
the power to enact it into a law.
The men who framed the Con
stitutioa of this State were elect
ed by the popular vote of the
who're state Tor the purpose of
making 4 new constitution aNG
they did SO. Was that all? No
After it was made as you see it
to day, it was then ratified by
the popular vote of The state.
And the legislature that enacted
this law in accordance with the
constitution, was also elected by
the people. So the law as it
stands is 10 accordance with the
t'lll OF a majority of the voters
OF this state, and according to a
republican torn OF government
IL is right V Populi to the con-
tary not outstanding. The two
ballot boxes established at each
voting place in a district was
not the out growth OF this poll
tax law as he says it is, At the
last legislature (before the pres,
emf one) when these boxes were
establishe our Legislature sau
their was a probability of con-
gress passing the infamous torce
bill and knowing well the party
who advocated it. They (the leg
lsiatule) took tine by the lore
lock, and establiE he'd two boxes
in each precinct, ole to vote for
the State officers IN and the 9th
er to vote for electors for Presi-

GREAT STRIK ES.
Remarkable Prevalence of Them During
Cleveland's Term.


Cleveland's Term.
A bright contemporary charges that,
since the enactment of the Mckinley tariff
bill, so GOO workingmen have been driven
into strikes, wage-cuts and lock-outs.
How many thousand laborers during
the same period have received increase
of employment and wages. it is not
the business of our contemporary to in
quire.
The first and principal labor trouble re
corded was in the Pennsylvania anthracite
coal region. How did the Mckinley bill
affect anthracite coal ?-left it on the free
list where it has been for years. Others of
these labor calamities were in such indus
tries as these; cotton goods, the duties on
which were for the most part either re-
duced or left unchanged; iron and steel, on
so articles of which the tariff was reduc-
ed; spool cotton, whose duty was I'M
changed; grain reapers, whose protection
was not increased that anyone knows of,
and whose price have fallen to the lowest
figure in farm history
There were further labor troubles which
our democratic authority did not record:
for example, the recent strike on the St.
| Louis belt line, and that of the Minneapo-
lis switchmen on the 500 railway. Both
of these were undoubtedly as legitimate
results of the Mckinley bill, as those above
recorded. Then there was the notable
strike in Cal. Brice's convict coal mine,
and also a liberal grist of labor troubles on
the European side Of democracy's domain
all due to Mckinley
For excellent and vouminous reading on
the subject of strikes, wage-cuts and
! lock-outs, however, we would respectfully
refer our revered contemporary to the
reign of Grover Cleveland. Mr.. Mckinley
is charged with having brought calamity
upon 1000 operatives. But during Mr..
Cleveland's first year of administration,
there were 242, 705 workingmen on strike,
and 5,424 locked out; and during his
second yeaf, 499, 409 laborers on strike
and l0l $50 locked out. Even the London
dock strike beat McKinley's record, and
laid off 100000 men, while the German
coal mine strike threw 100000 out of en-
ployment When it comes to getting up
frst-class labor troubles on large scale.
Mr. Mckinley is not in it with Grover
Cleveland and Cal. Brice. and their Euro
pean colleagues.

The editor of tbe national newspaper
organ of The Alliance, published at
Washington, is sick of his party and of
his mission in journalism. He has deter
mined to join the republican party. He is
reported as saying: II am going to join
a party that stands for something, which
has positive views, and knows how to ad-
vocale and how to defend them; which
seeks and generally secures prosperity for
the people, and which usually wins. | am
tired chasing the will of-thewisps Of the
third party movements. The leaders In
them pretend that they are endeav BRING to
rid the people of boss rule. In reality
they are seeking to elevate themselves
to boss-ship, which, if successful. would
be more tyrannical because more ignorant
than the Nominations of the leaders
or of the bosses in the two great parties,

At Their Old Tricks.

This morning II. G. Nielsen received a
box of goods which was plainly ad-
dressed as follows: "H. G. Nielsen,
The Dalles, Or. Care of D. P. & A. N.
Co." The U. P. company at Portland
had crossed out the shipping directions
and simply left the name and thus
shipped the box by rail to The Dalles.
Mr.. Nielsen promptly returned it to the
freight agent here, and told him to ship
it back to Portland. Ad. Keller, the ba-
ker has parcel plainly addressed to the
navigation company's boat at Portland,
which came up on the Baker. This is a
very small business for a great, rich
company to be engaged in-stealing
small packages of freight. No particular
complaint was made when the same
company stole thirty-one cars of wool
from j. H. Sherar, but we must draw a
line somewhere. 1t is pofitively mean
to steal anything less than a car load.

Death of t. t. Turner.

A telegram arrived in the city last
night announcing the death Of T. T. Tur-

Only couple of days before a letter was
received from his sister expressing the
hopelthat he was improving. The hope
was deIusive and yesterday evening he
passed over to the silent majority. Mr..
Turner was young man of excellent
habits and most obliging manners.
During his residence here he made many
friends who will regret his departure.
He leaves mother and sister to mourn
his loss.

st. Peter again nodded while the celes-

open for the weary pilgrim from the
neither world. A little ten pound angel
of the male persuasion, full of the cur
iosity of it's budding life, crept quietly
through the portals and, seeing an au-
tumn zephyr pass, bestrode its crest
and gently foated through the blue ex-
panse till it came in the neighborhood
of the Galloway farm on Three Mile,
when DR.. Hugh Logan, happening to be
in that neighborhood visiting sick
patient, caught it and made present of
it to Ed Sharp. Ed and Mrs. Sharp are
doing everything in the world to induce
it to stay with them.
