The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-01-18


which is common to every city OF any
size upon the American continent. His
remarks upon "the liberty Of the citizen"
are worthy OF careful study. They are
as follows:
"PfacticslIy, there is at present neither
Magma Charta nor bill Of rights for the
poor OF our great cities. They have to
submit to insult, assault and false inn
prisonment, and have no remedy except
suit at law, which takes from three to
i've years, and requires time and money
to prosecute, 80 they are practically
without any remedy. Any man, rich or
poor, taken into our higher courts, no
matter on what charge, can have jury
trial, and full, fair hearing before SEN
tence can be pronounced against him,
but in the magistrates court they de
prive him OF a jury trial by requiring
him to advance the jury fee, which, when
poor, he cannot do 30, 30 that he is COM
PEELED to submit to anything the magls-
trate may do, which frequently means
anything that police officer may wish
to have done. In the city Of Chicago,
where there are number Of magistrates
sitting at the same time, there are from
thirty to fifty men and women tried by
one magistrate in from one to two hours
every dsy. The proceedings are not
under the criminal laws as rule, but
fines are imposed and when these are
not promptly paid imprisonment follows,
just Rs it would in q case Of conviction
for crime in the higher court. While a
Judge Of higher court could not inn
prison man for an hour without jury
trial, a simple magistrate actually does
imprison scores every day without jury
trial. During the year 1891 the police Of
Chicago alone arrested and carried to
prison 70,55O people, including men,
women and children. OF these 32,500
were discharged by the magistrate. be-
cause in most cases no offsnse OF any
kind was proven, yet these people had
been arrested, sometimes dubbed, taken
through the streets in charge of officers,
and sometimes kept lu prison several
days, just as if they were charged with
murder; and all this not on any charge
e crime, but generally at the mere dis
Cretion of some man wearing the uniform
Of law. When they finally got out they
were practically without remedy for
the reason stated. OF the remaining
38O50, little over 5000 were sent to
PRISON for various terms by the magis-
trates, because Of their inability to pay
the fines which had been imposed, and
nearly all, except about ninety Of these,
were charged with trivial offenses, gen.
orally simply disorderly conduct. Yet
their treatment was the same as il they
had committed highway robbery, except
in the latter case they would have had
something like fair trial.
"The practice has long prevailed in
Chicago and other cities, Of raids being
made by the police in the nighttime,
and as many ss hundred or moro men
and women, sometimes only women, ar
rested and carried to prison in one night
on no specific charge Of crime, but SIM
ply at the caprice Of a policeman. These
cases have to be continued till the next
morning. A bond is generally given,
signed by professional bailor. The

WHITE HOP PICKERS.
They Will Be Given Preference
in Many Districts.
WORK FOR MANY THOUSANDS.
Yakima County Alone WEI Call for over
-Four Thousand-Redueed Rates
ON she Railroads.

The hop picking season will begin In
two or three weeks, and there IS every
prospect that there will be abundance OF
white pickers to harvest the crop. and the
experience of the last few years has made
ii popular for whole families to betake
themselves to the fields and combine
money-making with picnicking in the open
air.
The Northern Pacific railroad has made
3 special rate for pickers of $3.50 for the
round trip TO North Yakima for parties of
fifty or more, tickets TO be on SAFE from
September 10 80. good for thirty days. the
return trip TO be made not later than Octo-
Der Is The rates to the White and Puyas-
lup river valleys have not yet been an
nounced, but they will probably be one
fare for the round trip to all points up to
and including Puyallup. In discussing
the prospects of the season, General Agent
/. A. Nadeau said:
81 think there will be plenty of white
pickers this year. know that the grow
ers in the White and Puyallup valleys
have made special preparations for the
care of them and most of the growers are
in shape TO house them comfortably and
take care CT them we'll SO that families
need have no hesitancy in engaging for
hop-picking. Indian pickers seem to be
decreasing all the time and the rumor that
the collector of customs would interfere
with the coming of British Columbia
Indians would naturally cause the grow
ers to look for white help"
President ID. <. Lesh. of the Mckee COM
pany. of Yakima. writes to the PosT-lN-
TELLIGEScER on this subject under date of
August IA:
yakima county will require about 1000
hop piekers from Puget sound points to
harvest The hop crop this season, and as
many persons think that picking has al
ready commenced here, you will confer q
favor by informing them that picking will
not commence here before September 3.
1t is the desire OF the hop growers here
that no one be deceived as to time their
services will be needed nor be disappointed
in getting work when they do come, and
to that end an advertisement Will appear
in a few days in the DAILY Posr-ISTELLr-
GEScER and other Sound papers, inform
ing them as TO line work viii commence,
how many will be needed, railroad rates,
how to get their tickets. etc-"
The Snoouaimie Hop Growers Associa-
ton at Snogualmie employs on its ranch,
which is the largest In the world, from
1000 to 500 pickers during the season.
Indians always flock there in great num-
bers, bur Capt. Cove. the manager of the
company, always makes white pickers
welcome. and has excellent quarters fitted
up for them. On the lower Snoqualmie
district. in the neigaborhood of Toit.
great many white pickers may find en-
ployment, although Indians are generally
there In large numbers. About Enum-
claw. on the Northern Pacific, work will
be given to white pickers in preference to
Indians by several ranehers.

No body has done more TO give the church
stability than tina board Of church extern
sion.
DR.. Spencer then delivered an interest,"
ing address on the work Of the Church
Extension Society in the Northwest. sta
tistics showed that IL had expended some
81, 600 in this state. This year this con-
ference has 81 Go 70 raise. and IL IL does it
will get I. all back and s.. 500 besides 50
that there should be no difficulty in rails
ing the required amount here. This Vas
the FIRST bankrupt society the church
had had. Txenty-six years ago is
started $S0,0o 10 debt with no
assets. Since then the board had
donated 10 the West more than
s750. 900 and had now $4,000 loaned out.
There are nine states in the Union which
can safely be called Methodist states
Maryland. Ohio. Indiana. Wisconsin.
Michigan. Iowa. Kansas. Nebraska and
Washington He then spoke Ct the
scheme OF INSTRUMENTATION fraternity
in church extension, the obstacles in the
way of which were insuperable. The
scheme was impracticable. There had TO
be four kinds of churches in = town. no
matter how small they were They would
be Methodist. Baptist. Presbyterian
and Catholics, and If the other denomina-
tons. which already frsternixe. combine
their efforts, well and good. He was not
in favor Of building union churches. but
favored building Methodist churches and
preaching the preachable doctrine. He
had love for all the sister denominations
and felt no jealousy toward them. During
the past eight years more money had been
rasssd for arfapatou than In
the sixteen years previously. Nearly
900 churches had been built by
the society and 5000 more
would not have been built except for its
help. For the past five years il has built
three churches per day, and if the growth
Of the denomination is 10 be taken care of
as ii should be it will need to build five
churches day until the end of the CEN
tury. and seven churches a day until the
coming of the millennium. The speaker
then made an earnest appeal for the raising
OF the assessment against this conference.
This mornings session of the confer
ence viii be devoted to the continuation of
the examination of elders characters and
the handing in by ministers Of statistical
reports concerning their charges. At
2:30 p. m. the missionary sermon will be
delivered by Rev f. w. 10y, OF Blaine,
and in the evening the educational ami
versary will be held, at which nr. " p
Tedrick. president of Olympia Collegiate
Institute, will preside. Addresses will be
delivered by DR.. G. w. Payne, Of New
