4 Very Important Fact.

Review. There is one fact that the
wage-earners are overlooking in dis
cussing the tariff. Laying entirely aside
the question of wages as affected by the
tariff, it is yet matter of overpowering
Importance that the workingmen of this
country should have continued employ
'ment. If the United States is to adopt
a policy that will permit Europe to throw
her manufactures into these markets
if the workingmen. of Great Britain are
to be maintained, fed and paid by the
people of the United States: how can
the American workingmen hope for
steady employment If We are to order
half our shoes. half our clothing, half of
this manufacture and that from another
country, how are we to find employment
for as many workingmen as under a
policy that contemplates the preserva-
vation of the American markets for
American industry?

Refreshing For Alien.

Review. When Senator Allen reads
the Seattle Post-Intelligencer of recent
issues he will grit his teeth with rage
and vexation. The trouble with the
Seattle paper is ofthe s..fond and foolish"
variety. In its zeal to prove that Allen
is King countys man 1t reprints every
thing 1t finds in the state papers charg-
ing him with neglecting the rest of the
state. The Review, for example, print
ed an article declaring that Mr.. Allen
was elected by entering into a combina-
ton with Hunt and McGraw and. their
Seattle crowd. The Seattle paper has
tens to fasten the collar by reprinting
the article with approval and without
denial. Elsewhere it was charged that
Seattle was the open foe of the Columbia
river, and this was also reprinted with
approval. It looks as if the Post-Intel-
ligencer had an idea that King county
elects the senators for the state of Wash
ington, and that Mr.. Allen had only to
carry the King county prima-
ries to be returned to the Senate. That
has been true in the past; but it is now
time that the rest of the state were as
serting its rights.

official emphatic denial of the story to
the effect that Andrew Carnegie with
holds his gift to the city in event of the
city councils taking official notice OF the
protests from trades unions. Loveioy
said there is not one word of truth in

fident the author of that story did not

armed men into Homestead. The suits
were delayed on account of the shooting
of Frick, and it is not the intention to

Moscow Mirror. Quite number of
union miners arrested for contempt and
completely in the Coeur d d'AIene murders
and other crimes have all at once dis
covered that they are not citizens and
can not be held by the authorities.
However, they deprive true born Amer
leans of their rights, life and property,
and it appears that they will be punish
ed in proportion to their crime. They
were citizens enough to commit murder
and other crimes and they are surely
citizens enough to suffer for their
crimes.

Nursing the vipers.

Grants Pass Courier. Evidence null
tiplies daily to prove that this country
in throwing her doors open 30 wide to
the oppressed of all nations has put
her foot in it and has cast pearls before
a whole iotof pigs. Wherever foreigners
have been allowed to concentrate in any
great numbers, Americans have had to
move. American liberty has been
tratnpeled upon, bigotry and intolerance
established and open anarchy has
reigned in its stead. The late assassina-
ton of Frick by nihilist shows the kind
of stock the "refuge of oppression" has
been harboring. Yet, when will con-
gress be brave enough to restrict our
immigration laws in such a way that
paupers, criminals and anarchists may
be kept out? After the steed of liberty
and equality has been replaced by an
archv, oppression and intolerance, there
will be very little use of trying to lock
the door. The doors will be locked on
the lovers OF true liberty themselves and
they will have to find some other cline
where property rights will be respected
and murder in all its forms condemned.

+ Some of the reasons brought forward
by the railroad agents here to support
their hostile attitude against the Spo-
kane mills are amazing. eve want the
long haul on everything" said one OF
these agents, 'tand If we don't get it we
lose revenue that rightly belongs to us.
Why siiould we build up your industry
when you dispose of considerable pro-
portion of your flour to the local trade
and thereby deprive us OF the money we
could earn If it had been hauled to
Tacoma or the east?" For hot day
that is cool enough TO be refreshing. We
are even begrudged the bread we eat,
and are pronounced unreasonable be-
cause We are unwilling to ship our wheat
to Liverpool and buy our -four in Dakota.
Henceforth the public must ever bear in
mind that in eating bread or consuming
any of the various products of this Sec
ton it is sirobbing'' the transportation
companies of money that they ought to
have for hauling them to distant mar
cts.
Spokane and the inland empire will
be at the mercy of this .rapacious dispo-
sition until the Columbia has been
opened and an independent railroad has
been built down tothe Snake. Railroad
men and railroad influences will ridicule
this proportion, but it is nevertheless a
fact that the water haul and independ-
ent lines of road have brought the trans
portation companies to terms elsewhere,
and the came influence feared in this
case. Until we can command this key
to the transportation situation of the
Pacific northwest, our industries. will
rise and fall at the caprice of distant
railway officials who are manipulating
their systems for all there is in it, and
who will not hesitate to strike down the
interests of investors and the hopes of
the people whenever by SO doing they
can add little to their revenues. This
is short-sighted policy, but it is the
policy that frequently controls the man
agement of the transcontinental rail-
roads in their treatment of the industries
Of the cities through which they run.
