Put Down Anarchy,

The situation Mt Blue Island during
the past few days has been such Us
not only to arouse the greatest ap-
prchcnsion, but to warrant the
thought that n crisis has come in our
national affairs in dealing with law
lossness. The action on the part of
the administration in calling upon
the military forces of the country to
put down uprising against the man
date OF the countrv's representatives
was timely and most proper. De-
iiancc Of the law. either state or ma
tional-and more particularly if may
be said, national-must be met with
the rcbuke that will teach lesson.
Every outcropping of the anarchistic
spirit such rs apparently predomi-
mates ut Blue Island. must be
promptly and effectually crushed.
We have no room and no use for the
socialistic element in this country.
and it must be handled with firm
and relentless grasp wherever and
whenever it appears.
In the present labor difficulties.
the strikers had popular sentiment
ut the back of them until the break
ing out of the unchecked lawlessness
Mt Blue Island. There is no doubt
that the majority of people are
heartily sick of the Pullman ear mo-
nopoly, and would like to see it
broken. and to this end as much u
for the general sympathy that goes
out To labor in its struggles to better
its condition against overfcd capital.
the masses of the people felt that
reasonable aggrayation had been at
the root of the Debs movement. But
when the head OF the \. X. L. made
no effort to stop the feature of the
strike nj Blue Island which has dis
graced the country. he turned the
tide of sentiment in n twinkling. No
matter how just the cause the end
does not justify the means tolerated
in this ease.
Mr.. Dcbs made the mistake of his
life as u leader when he failed TO At
tempt ut least. to put stop to the
anarchy manifested ut Blue Island.

NEW YORK, July 5.-It is estimated that
over 20,OOo members of the various build.
ing trades unions of New York are out Of
employment. This is due to several
causes, the general hard times, of course,
bcing an important factor. Another
cause. and one to which much significance
Is attached, is the disturbed condition of
labor at the present time. For the first
time in many years there appears to be a
general suspension of 'overhGuling" work
this summer. The dissensions among the
different labor unions are the cause. it is
said, for this, as people are afraid to have
work begun without an assurance that it
will be completed.
Different Trades Ont.
There are about G,O0o bricklaye-s in the
city. OF which 50 per cent. are out of work
When employed they earn S24 week.
The plastcrers number about the same
proportion of unemployed. Out of 5000
are employed. The carpenters fare better.
IL Is estimated there are 1900 of them,
with one-fourth of that number out of
work. There are about 5000 plumbers,
two-thirds OF whom are employed Add to
these the steam and gas filters and their
helpers. cabinet workers, tin and sheet
iron workers, over half of whom cannot
find employment, and it makes up an
army of unemployed bread winners OF
alarming proportions.
No Money to Pay Rent.
The unions have benefit funds for doc.
tors fees and funeral expenses, but none
for rent, and how the men with large
famili,s exist is II mystery. Where there

Strained Relations Between Japan and
the Flowery Kingdom.
VICTORIA, B. c., July 5.-The Empress
of China, eleven days from Yokohama,
has arrived. She reports that Japan is
continuing active war preparations, and
the strained relations between Japan and
China are rs much feature OF Asiatic
trouble as the Corean rebellion. Corea,
alarmed at the movements of her neigh
bors, pleads that both withdraw their
troops from her shores and warships from
her harbors.
The plans Of Japan are secret, and as
fast rs native papers make announce
ments about the war they are suppressed.
Her navy is at its best, the coasts being
secured for service and everything
oreathes & spirit of trouble. A cable re-
ceived from Yokohama, June Is, says the
government army defeated the Toga kito,
recovering Senshu. The commander of
the government troops was captured by
the rebels, but his life 50 far has been
spared.

In all troubles of catarrhal or
bronchial nature, one months treat
ment in the summer is, as rule,
worth two in the winter. 1t is II the
summer that nature lends her aid to
the worl, of the physician. The even
temperature makes conditions spec
tally favorable for a speedy cure.
The liability to catching cold IS re-
duced to the minimum. Time and
again have the physicians Of the
Scott Medical Institute urged pa
tients in desperate stages of catarrh
to wait until summer for treatment.
and they have never failed to urge
all who have any traces of this insid-
Gus disease to embrace the oppnrtu-
nifty which summer offers, and rid
themselves of it then. even when its
symptoms are less distressing than
usual.

1t is worthy Of note, also, that the

has had nothing for the governors Of

can tariff is hypocriticsl and fraudu-
lent and designed only to deceive the
voters of the country. Further, the
ADVOCATE will add, under a rational
and humane industrial system, the
workingmen Of America, instead of
being interested in excluding foreign
laborers from the country, would
welcome all who could get here, and
could even afford to extend aid to
enable more to come. Under a proper
industrial system there would be no
monopoly of the means of produc-
tion, no exorbitant profits to the few
and starvation wages to the many, no
oVerproduction of the necessities and
comforts and luxuries of life, no en-
torced idleness and no member of
society deprived Of the abundance of
the worlds products except at his
own option and as a result of volun-
tory idleness and want of thrift.
Under such system every new Ia
borer secured, instead of crowding out
one already engaged in productive
industry, would tighten the task of
all others, and would therefore be
welcomed as blessing to all. This
again will be regarded by the Capital
as another Utopisn dream, and it
would ever remain so were all men
like the editor of the Capital.
