In Dis luulCtuCut WIG kOvCIuOI
assumes positive grounds. He as
serts without qualification that
money was used to purchase votes
to carry out certain legislation.
The language is clear and emphatic
and points directly to the conclu-
sion that the governor is personally
familiar with the facts. Such a
charge, in positive terms, preferred
by the chief executive of a state,
against the legislative branch of
government, challenges the most
careful investigation and serious
consideration; and the publicity
given it devolves upon the governor
a moral obligation to produce the
proof. He has declared to the peo-
pie of Idaho that their representa-
tives were corrupted by money; he
has proclaimed that the very exist
ence of government is threatened
by legislative venality and in trem-
bling horror he crys aloud:
eff this cannot be stopped and if men
cannot be prevented from coming here
and openly and boldly purchasing the
vote of the representatives of the people,
we might as well prepare ourselves to
bid good bye to a republican form OF
government"
We are not prepared to believe
that Governor Mcconnell would lay
such charges wantonly; neither can
we conceive that the first officer of
state would descend to the level of
a treacherous crow; yet his excel
lency must LEGALLY substantiate
his charges or expose himself to
public contempt. While it is adj
mitted that he has selected singu-
larly indiscreet method, his age, ex-
perience and reputation precludes
the idea of substantial imprudence.
We are forced to believe that the
charges are essentially correct; and
the governor has voluntarily, how
ever imprudently, imposed upon
himself the task of establishing
beyond legal doubt the material
counts contained in his indictment.
He has, in a measure, usurped the
functions of the public press; he
has assumed the responsibility of
manufacturing public opinion; he
has brought into question the NOR
atty of a sovereign state; he has
assailed the general integrity of
whole Legislature, and he has ut
tered solemn appeal to the law
and order element of our people
he is. therefore, in honor, in duty
and by the spirit of his official oath
bound to fasten the crimes charged
upon particular individuals. Until
he does so, the reputation of the
state will remain beclouded and
every member of the late legislature
will be an object of suspicion and
contempt. The governor has gone
too far to recede. A backward move
ment now would be Infamous. Let
the whole power of the state be in
voked and Governor Mcconnell,
having rushed into the breach must
stand or fall by the issue.-Idaho

an editorial from the Malad Enter

not afraid to criticise the acts of it's
party's representatives and not un-
der the thumb of party bosses,
which is worth reading, as it places
Governor Mcconnell in his true
position on his doodle" charges,
and throws the responsibility OF
the proof on him. The Governor
is politically sick and will be polit-

Who were the obstructionists is
not so much of question as it was,
if the amount of bills refused pas
sage by one body that had passed
the other is the criterion by which
we are to judge. The Republican
House refused to pass more SEN
ate bills than the Senate did House
bills. The republicans then are the
obstructionists, and not the popu-
lists. Now what will the republi-
cans howl about.

HUNDREDS ASK EMPLOYMENT
The Wool -Sorters' Strike Opened a
New Field for Women-Scenes
at the Mills Yesterday.

Hundreds of girls and women following
in a continuous stream applied for EN-.
ployment yesterday in the wool ware
houses on Townsend and BluXome streets.
There were young and old. They had no
idea of what class of work they might be
required to perform. but all were willing
10 accept whatever offered and try hard to
give satisfaction. About fifty were given
an opportunity to earn a dollar day. and
the remainder went away, a sadly disap-
pointed lot.
Because the men engaged as wool
sorters had gone on strike over a
readjustment of wages months ago
in one wool warehouse. girls were
given a trial. The experiment was salts
factory TO the employers, and gradu-
ally women took the place of men until
nearly $50 are now busy at benches select
ing various grades of wool. Sorting is
considered skilled labor. and nobody was
more firmly convinced of this idea that

however, they are forced to believe that in
teligent girls are quick to learn.
There are reasons why the employers are

satisfied with the turn of affairs in their
sortlng-ro0ms. On an average they have
thirty s0rters working. Heretofore this
department cost something like double
as much as now for wages-an item of
Importance since the wool business is al
most dem0ralized through prospects of
tariff tinkering. Any reduction of ex-
penSes. 0 matter how small, is real help
under present conditions, the wool men
say, because prices ard profits are reduced
to a last degree, and all because Demo-
Gratis may take protection away from the
farmer and let foreign wool come in duty
free.
The strike had no effect upon the wool
mills, except to change men for women.
At noon Monday the sorterS in Whitney Il
WebSter's mill quit work. thinking they
could get an advance of fifty cents day.
Yesterday young women applied for work
in patches of two ana three at a time from
morning till night.
We've had rush. here this morning"
said Mr.. Webster ANY number of
bright. respectable young women asked us
for employment. anxious to do anything to
earn little money. 1t is a great pity
there is not more work for such girls here
in San Francisco.
II would be only too glad TO see them
all working and supporting them selves
by honest labor. The men have been try
to get them out, and they did get men out
of tWatson & Marks mill on Bluxome
street.
"We are highly pleased with the girls.
who show an aptitude for learning and
give promise Of good work"
Watson & Marx had visit from at
least 800 young women yesterday. Ten
men left the sorting-room Tuesday and
now there are twenty-eight girls at work,
as all the male sorters were dismissed.
''Those men at Whitney & Webster's
mill had an influence over our men," said
Mr.. Watson. land ten sorters went on
strike. Last winter the sorters worked by
piece. receiving % cents hundred pounds
and making So to S3 80 day. Usually
they finished at p. NJ; but they too
often showed tendency to run over the
work carelessly to get finished as quickly
and easily as possible. Now, we have a
number of smart bright, intelligent girls
who are industrious and willing to learn
the different grades of WOOL"
In +. S. Moody's mill the girls have
proved themselves capable of doing excel
lent work. and they show an interest and
care that it is properly done. With instruc-
ton they quickly acquire a knowledge of
the grades. and deftness comes instinct
lively.
Flint & Mcclellan have still five Chinese
sorters, but white men are taking their
places and soon there will be no MongolianS

the parish has been erecting at the corner
of Bush and Cough streets.
This will lot be the formal opening of
the church. but the chapel is ready for oc-

morrow will be made memorable one, for
the reason that the congregation, who have
felt themselves almost homeless so far as O

find themselves located in the new build
ing for which they have waited so long.
The services will consist of the litany,
and it is expected that holy communion
will be celebrated by Right Rev. William
Ford Nichols, Bishop of California. He
has been invited to be present, and il is
hoped that he will have charge of the
services. In the event that he does not
attend. then the rector. Rev. George Ed

will attend. and the services will be as
follows: HYMN SO. the litany. hymn
