Observations.

EDITOR JOURNAL.-Wading through
the verbiage of "Fair Play" we think
we see an attempt to make capital out
OF an omission to deny the authentlci-
ty of the alleged oath given as that of
the A. P. A. A little common sense
or the slightest appreciation of the
principles that secret societies are
based upon, would have saved Fair
Play from his exhibition of folly. He
would have seen that he could not ex-
pect that any of the A. P. A. would
lend aid to render his meanness of
value to him, nor if they so desired
could they conscientiously violate
their obligations of secrecy by indirec-
ton any more than they would do so
directly.
The labored defence he makes for
the sneaking meanness he acknowl-
edges ne and his friends are guilty of
is totally insufficient to extenuate the
offense. They stand self convicted of
moral perjury, which alone merits the
contempt of the public.
But the public are in no wise sur
prlsed at the adoption of such methods
by Fair Play and his friends; for q
long time they have been accustomed
to the use of similar methods in other
things and nothing that they can ex-
hlbit themselves in can much shock
the public
Falrplay can rest assured that every
labored defence he makes will have the
same result as the past actions of
himself and his crowd,-the result of
increasing the number of those who
are firmly convinced that it is for the
welfare of the community that they be
retired to back seats. No further spec
lfications are required by the people !;
the verdict will be unanimous and the
exception of the ring itself and its few
satellites. Never has desperation be-
trayed itself more plainly than in the
efforts Equal Rights" and "Fair Play"
stir up spirit of intolerance and to
fix such stigma upon the opponents
of ring methods and rule, in the hope
of binding few, or at least, such of
the Catholic element as had showed
signs of breaking away from what has
become obnoxious to public welfare
But this effort, like others made bv
this ring is inane and foolish; the crv
of intolerance is utterly devoid of anv
foundation, and the Catholics OF the
community, with the other GOOD
| citizens, can see through the gauzv
purposes and motives of the crv. and
will vote undeterred by such schemes
and independent of the self interested
tolerence OF Fair Play and CLIQUE
They may see how valuable an aid is
one who takes care not to give the
influence to their cause that doubtless
his name would bring. Without desir-
ing to offend l wish to point out that
the whole mass of words OF "FairPlay."
SO far as concerns the question atissue
was simply bosh, and betrays the in
sincerity of the man.

agreement and the testimony intro
duced, that the logs were to be scaled
at Priests Point, at the mouth of the
Snohomish River but this was not

Immigration.

Statistics show that something over
100000 immigrants have arrived in
this country during the past year says
the Salem Independent. Whatever
portion of this vast number of people
found employment here, found it by
displaclng an equal number of native
and naturalized Americans. Whatever
portion OF this vast army of foreigners
who have failed to find employment,
have become drones in society and a
burden to our people. Now, this has
been going on for years and years; but
owing to the fact that the United States
has had unlimited quantities of new
lands to be taken up. she has absorbed
this heterogeneous mass about as fast
as they came. But with us the day
for obtaining homestead and pre-emp-
ton is fast passing away. But what
what hope is there for us now, that
nearly all our lands are taken up?
There is none, unless this immigration
is utterly and entirely stopped.
1t is true that our forefathers in
tended this country to be the Gland of
the free and the home of the brave"
to be the shield of the oppressed and
the downtrodden everywhere. But the
time has come to put stop to this.
So long as we are able TO do it without
injuring ourselves, it was all right.
That cannot be done any longer, and
this immigration must be stopped
More recently America has been made
the dumping ground for the offal of all
Europe. We have been flooded with
the criminals, with the diseased, with
the pauper element. This element is
SO dangerous and undesirable that our
laboring people are beginning to rebel
against it, and they must be
protected
Our country, because of this immi-
grafton, has become the home of the
communist, the nihilist and the an
archist. Because we have given them
liberty thew have demanded license.
The result is they do not want to be
bound by our laws, and have become
inimical to the best interests of the
country. Our people demand that thi,
tide shall cease Our legislators must
carry out their wishes or there will be
a revolution.
We believe in the reign of law. We
want liberty, but the only way it can
be secured is by obedience to law.
Where there is no law there must be
anarchy.
Knowing the will of the American
people, we ask why our represent atives
at Washington do not try and give
effect to that will? Why is not a bill
introduced to put a stop to this I'M
limited immigration? Why are our
congressman afraid? Do they fear the
influence OF the railways? Are they
afraid OF the influence of the steam
ship companies? Why not try and do
something? The people demand strict
immigration law. Ii the present con-
gress rises without giving it to us there
will be trouble ahead. Instead of
making long and dreary speeches on
the tariff. OF opposing everything in
the line o: free silver, why does not
Senator Dolph do something to save
the country from the curse of unlimited
immigration? viii the gray old gen
tleman tell Us the reason why? We
pause for reply! Do we hear it?-
