THAT TIN NINE.


The news which comes from the famous
Temescal tin mines of San Bernardino
county, California, is not Of character TO
please Governor MCKINLEY and the lesser
lights Of high tariff and the fostering of
infant industries. The protectionists have
relied more upon these mines taan any
thing else TO justify the imposition OF
heavy tax upon every family IN America.
The Temescal mines we're to furnish the tin
with which a mighty industry was to be
blslt up, ana American workmen were not
to be brought into competition with the
pauper labor of Wales We all can recall
frequent announcements during the cam
paign last summer of shipments of tin from
the wonderful miles at San Jacinto, though
it is doubted that anybody will be bold
enough TO say that he ever heard OF
the arrival Of any of those ship
ments at any Of the many tin plate
works which were springipg up like mush-
rooms all over the country until after the
polls were closed in November Indeed,
nobody seems 10 have heard anything Of
these ''tin plate plantsn or Of their product
since Major MCKINLEY became governor Of
Ohio.
Now comes the statement that s'the
Temescal mines are d failuren They have
been in operation little over year land
were expected to produce hundred to two
hundred tons ingot tin per monsh. Instead,
they are now producing only nine to ten
tons and there is little ore IN sight. Two
million dollars have been expended by
English stockholders in developing the
mines, and the cost Of operations has re-

A HEALTHY sENTIAgNT.

This may be skeptical age, and men
may have little reverence in their souls for
things which oftentimes were looked upon
az holy; but then there are some things at
least which. thank COP are held sacred.
Among them is the American Declaration
OF Independence. IL must ever remain as
sacred as holy unit to every American; and
it is quite probable he would defend it from
assault much sooner than he would take up
arms IN defense of the Bible. The farmers
of La Grange, a little farming town about a
hundred miles south of Cheyenne Wyo,,
resented an insult to the said Declaration
of Independence, in such manner as to
give very good evidence to the man who
committed the sacrilege that irreverent as
the American people may be- it will not 90

liberties. A lawyer Of La Grande was

the advertisements of business houses be-

naturally and very properly resented the
outrage, and the disappearing lawyer In all
Likelihood escaped tar and feathers only by

The advertising fiend desecrates nearly
all things sacred, but when he undertakes
to mar the day and the palladium conse-
Grated to freedom by over hundred years
Of sacred recollection and generation, he is
going too far and the sooner notice is
served on him that such thing cannot bs

TIE JAPANESE MKT.

Now the coast papers are raising the
alarm over Japanese immigration. The
agitation has begun Just as it began against
the Chinese twenty-five years ago. Until
recently the Japanese have been regarded
as SO much superior to the Chinese that
their coming was not looked upon as an
offense, nor their presence here as an evil.
Indeed, 1t is not so very long since induces
ments were held out to them to come The
rejection of the Chinese seems TO have en-
couraged the Japanese to immigrate, for
they are coming in increasing numbers
every year. OF the 1864 immigrants who
year ended June 30, 1,4S7, or wo-ffths.
were from Japan. 1t has been discovered
also, that so far as numbers are concerned
these sprightly little brown men are quite
as much disturbing element in the field OF
labor as their cousins from China, whilst
the morals OF the Japanese women are of
the same low order as those of the Chi
nese, almost ali Of whom that come to
America being prostitutes. The Japanese
men cut wages and supplant white labor.
as they are rapidly doing on the western
railways We nave been told that other
things being equal the Japanese are given
preference by some employers, because of
their tractability, the ease with which they
are managed. their faithfulness and their
non-liability TO strike. They are also pre-
ferred as house servants. and as'they work
for less wages than the average girl de-
mands. are taking the places of female
help in the kitchens and as chambermaids
and walters. The esroestness aud yigor
with which many of the Pacific coast pa
pers are discussing the problem suggest
that ere long there viii be an interesting
Japanese question:" which may have to
be solved, as the great Chinese question is
being solved by including the agreeable
little Japs In the class TO be prohibited

has started out early on it's own account TO

headedness and unwisdom Of the minere--
and it is certainly q great victory which has
been won, the commonwealth being ar
rayed against the strikers-the employers
will be very apt to take advantage of what
they have gained to make their triumph
over unionism as complete as possible. We
shall not be surprised to learn that organ
lied labor is without foothold in all the
region affected BY the present contest in
which event unionism will necessarily End

While the true friends Of labor IN its
struggle with capital will regret what has
taken place in the Coeur d. Alenes, they will
not feel that the cause of labor has lost SO
much as it has gained if workingmen will
remember the lesson that has been taught
and win profit from it, that lesson being
that anarchy will not be tolerated, that law
and constituted authority must be re-
spected

and did do during the first weeks of the
strike. That sympathy was botn sentiment

gave substantial support. 1t was so gen

have led the mines TO victory. Even rich
and powerful companies cannot long hold
out against cause approved and ged by
the masses.
But Whist revolution In public senti-
ment took place the moment the strikers

their regard for tho constituted authority |
Then everybody said they must be re-

be permitted TO turn anarchists and set up
the barbaric rule OF might over right. And
when the strikers forgot the age and the
civilization OF the times and undertook to
argue their cause with guns and dynamite,
the revulsion in public feeling was such
that the former sympathy for the miners
was turned into desire that the men be
severely punished.

ceived blow in north Idaho from which 1t
