THE COMING TRAGEDIAN.

The Tacoma Morning Union SAYS:
ponent of the great dramatic writers, and the
bright young city OF Tacoma sends TO the stage
William johnson Fife. He is the star In the
horizon that Will quickly make the ascent to
the Zeuitb.
William is welcome. There is a big
place waiting for him. Our people will as
readily receive an exponent of the great
dramatic writer's from Tacoma as from
London or New York. We have often
felicitated ourselves on our facility of dis
covering genius. IL we did not discover
Booth we gave him opportunities. Our
verdict upon Modjeska secured for her an
offer OF $1,000 week from a responsible
manager. We have helped good many
other lights of the American stage on their
way to fame and are willing to do as much
for the Tacoma star as we have done for
others. We infer from the Union that his
life's work is all before him. 1t is not
even intimated that he has graduated
from tha amateur stage. But he is abou,
to move. and we hope he will move this
way. The Union thus speeds him on his
way:
Soon be is going forth TO do the things that
he has set his heart upon. The ptiful sneers
OF them that have attempted what he intends
to do will not be sreD by him. He will be too
far away from them at ihe beginning. He Is
fully equipped, and Tacoma will present TO the
world the I'm de steele tragic actor, the man
whom art will applaud.

THE REPEAL OF THE STATE
BANK TAX.

The proposition to repeal the State bank
tax begins TO assume shape and form. The
House in caucus has decided that the
Chicago platform demands repeal and that
in this respect the Chicago platform must
be respected. 1t will be singular if an
administration which refuses to coin silver
lying idle iu the treasury goes before the
country responsible for a law which will
flood the country with paper currency, all
of which must be redeemable in gold.
Unless the paper currency of the several
states shall be kept at parity with na-
tional currency and national currency with
gold, there will be as many kinds of cur
rency as there are States, and many of
them will vary in market value. Some
will easily keep their State currency at
par with national currency. This may be
done bv requiring gilt-edged securities to
be deposited for currency. But other
States will be less particular about secur-
ity. Their object may be to get large
amount of paper In circulation with as little
expense as possible. 1t is not easy to see
upon what ground the National Govern
ment can interfere. The tax on State bank
circulation once removed iJ will be left to
the States to say on what conditions cur
rency shall be issued. But few hundred
millions of State bank circulation will add
materially to the difficulty of maintaining
all descriptions of currency on a gold
basis

THE HEATH VERDICT.

The failure of the second Heath jury to
agree will not enlarge the circle oil those
who are enamored of the unanimous jury
system. The evidence IN the case was
conflicting and much perjury was commit
ted by the witnesses. but the result Oh Tue
trial places the public in the alternative ol
believing that ten reputable cltzehs COLI
spired to take away Heath's lie, and tna'
two out of twelve jurors were more likely
to get at the truth than the other ten, OF oI
concluding that the ends of justice nave
been defeated by the obstinacy OF the TWO
who insisted on an acQuittal.
A third trial of the case Us now unavod-
sble. A Fresno newspaper suggests that
the case should be abandoned Tor want OF
evidence, but there appears TO have been
evidence enough to convince ten out OF
twelve Jurors. A change of venue Will
probably be taken and the case relrled 10
some county where feeling does not run
quite so high. 1t would be unfair to SEND
this man back into the world with the
brand that five out Of six jurymen have
pronounced him murderer. What he
should want now is retrial in county
where people are unfamiliar with the
family feuds in which be has got entangled.
and where there is a better chance OF
getting at the truth. On new trial the
evidence will not be as full as il has been
Some of the witnesses will have died.
others may have disappeared and no new
testimony can be expected to turn up.
But there are the chances OF legal warfare,
and such as they are they are likely to
help the prisoner more than the State. The
point on which Fresno should Insist is that
man shall not be done to death in his
own back yard without determined at
tempt to aVenge society.

Bland act declaring silver dollars full
legal tender is all the security we no"
have against raid on the gold reserves py
money spectators. In the event OF such
a raid the treasury could avert suspsn-
sion of specie payments by availing itseil
of the option to pay currency in gold or
silver. AS for the Sherman sllver-pur-

sealing north of the thirty-fifth parallel OF

A vessel which sailed before the law was

plain sailing so far as vessels are con-
cerned which fly either the English or
American flag. The sealers of these two
nationalities are bound by the laws of
their respective countries. But if a

CHEAP FOREIGN LABOR.

An Eastern journal which has always
been friendly to Chinese immigration has
received some light on the cheap labor
question through the strike among the
cokew0rkers of Pennsylvania. If the
Poles and HuDgarians were not exactly
contract lahorers they came TO this coun-
try in such condition that contracts for
their labor could be made here at as low
figures as in Europe. The journal in
question says:
One of the lessons raught by these outbreaks
is the lmpollcy of the importation OF cheap
foreign labor. In the final adjustment OF their
accounts the owners of mines and manufac-
tories will find that the highest paid and most
intelligent workmen are the most profitable to
the employer.
II will be we'll for this country if this
lesson be taught thoroughly. To say
nothing of humanity. the interests of
the employer are safer in the long run
with intelligent and well-paid labor than
with a class of laborers who are ever
ready to combine to injure their employers.
But it Is not in human nature to be con-
tented and happy on wages that deny the
ordinary comforts of life and forbid hope
of provision for old age. Competition has
beat wages down below the just proper
ton which should come to the laborer from
the returns of industries. NO one gains
from this deadly competition. If wages
were non-elastic-if it were impossible to
reduce the rate below certain point-all
employers would give that rate and make
ss much clear money as at present. The
loss that falls upon properly in such
strikes as that now prevailing in the coke
regions should be charged to a selfish de-
sire to force labor below fair rates.
