Mr.. Wilson's Trade.

Congressman Wilson, in his after
noon speech to his London admirers,
says that our manufacturing plants III
this country, if urged to their fullest
capacity, would, in six months, meet
the demand for year. Evidently Mr.
Wilson has not investigated this mat
ter with care. Our protective system
has encouraged and built Up manu-
featuring enormously, within the past
ten years, but there never has been
time when our factories could in SIX
months manufacture the goods our
people could consume in year This
is demonstrated by the fact that even
when they were running at fullest
capacity were still importing about 10
per cent. of the manufacturing goods
we used, and manufacturers say that
in ordinary times, when their factories
were running under normal conditions
an incre ase of 10 per cent. in the de-
mand for their products would exhaust
all supplies inside of thirty days.
This being true, and there is no
doubt that it is true, American facto-
ries have had no need to seek the
"open markets of the world" which
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Morton think
they will find of so great advantage.
1t is the home market that has sup
ported them and built them up. Now
that this home market is opened to
the competition of foreigners, our own
manufactures will be compelled to
seek foreign markets or go out OF
business. They have got to divide
home patronage which in the year
1890 bought goods of them to the
value of more than nine billion dol
lars, and what they will get in ex-
change they do not yet know. They
are about to be compelled to give up
trade of known value for something
they know nothing about.-Ledger.

Sol. Simpson and the Loggers.

The idea that Sol. Simpson the can
didate for representative, is III every
WAY a successful and representative"
man, is, in part, true Mr.. Simpson,
unlike many others whom Capt. Rem
ton in his life time, set on their feet,
has made money in Mason county.
The others, who were perhaps better
lumbermen, have made failures, sim
ply because of their inOrdinate love for
LIQUOR. Many of us can recall a num-
her of such instances within our Obser-
walton, where otherwise tirst-class men,
could not stand prosperity. Mr.. Simp-
sons business methods have been
those OF all corporations and many
employers of. labor-to get the most
work for the least cash outlay.
By reason of his means and infiu-
ence Mr.. Simpson was able to intro
duce some reforms in logging meth
DDS, which other Iumbermen have
since adopted. The reduced wage
scale, and the board charge are two
Of these schemes,-which operate to
make the life of the logger rather a
profitless undertaking. The employ
ment Of cheap China cooks is some
thing not tolerated in other camps
outside of those on the Blakely rail-
road. IN the important positions Mr..
Simpson has frst-class men, but in
the ordinary work a cheaper class of
men is employed largely, also a great
saving Of money. Now these schemes
are in the line of business-purely
business propositions of dollars and
cents-and we refer to them simply to
show that the working men owe Mr..
Simpson but little for favors, which
they nave not fully paid for with
Drawn.
Hence Mr.. Simpson cannot be
termed the repre- sentative of the
working class. He is really the true
representative Of the railroads, the
employing lumbermen, and the large
timber land holding corporations, such
as the Port Rlakely Mill Company, in
which he is interested. As to the
farming classes Of the county and
those who have ranches, but do not
work In the camps, there are no points
in common with Mr.. Simpson. He
knows and cares practically nothing
about any interest of this county, ex-
cept the logging interest, and that he
naturally views from the lumber
mans standpoint. Although Mr..
Simpson is said to have hankered to
go the legislature for some time, like
our Mr.. Anderson, we doubt if he can
tell why, unless it be that he or his
company desires something in the
way of favorable legislation, as sug-
gested by an extract from the West
Coast Lumberman, which appears
elsewhere. Whether Mr.. Simpson
desires to go from pride, or for bust
ness reasons, he is not likely to do the
general interests Of the county great
good, and, in our opinion, it will be a
mistake to elect him.
MIR. Callow, on the other hand, has
been identified with the county for
over twenty years, he has taken a
direct interest in it's welfare, he will
represent the common people and the
working men, he has shown his eff
cheney in Office, and deserves the pro-
motion.

A School Boys Logic.

How WORKING MAN MAY BETTER
HIS CONDITION, AND AN ORIGINAL
IDEA OF A PERFECT POLITICIAN.
If working man wishes to attain
to anything more comfortable in the
near future than constant labor. he
VIII have to put some forethought and
doings as ne advances; for if he puts
all his spare time to sports and other
enJoyments, how is he going to i'm
prove? At least. if he is a man work
ing Tor common wages, he will have
10 give up more than one opportunity
of pleasure.
Evenings instead of going to par
ties or other amusements, he should
put bis mind to educational purposes
or other useful accomplishment which
he Is III need of. He may think it is
rather hard to shut himself out from
pleasure and enjoyment, but he does
not need to for there is pleasure in
anything one takes interest in, if we
look upon it in the right way.
If he wishes to improve his educa-
ton 1t is the only way to keep his
head clear of other amusements. But
the common education is not the onlv
point there are many others which
deserve both study and attention.
If it be person of age he should
give politics his strict attention. but
WITTY reason, for the only perfect poll
Vlcan Is the one who has no party
leellng. He should vote for the man
that he thinks best for the position
no matter what party he belongs to
he should keep his conscience clear.
Try to keep a good character and
never purchase that which is
oi no use to him. He should keep a
sood look out for better place of
than the one he has-at
least II 1t is not good one; bu he
Snoold not spend time nor money for
'ich purposes unless he has a chance
70 succeed. In this good county
paper or any newspaper will often be
found t his advantage.

Do the Loggers Want Change.

The following from the West Coast
Lumberman, trade paper, gives the
impression that the mill interests of
Sound are not satisfied with the exist
ing lien laws as operating against the
buyer and the boss logger. We think
that the average lumborman will con-
slider the present law as none too
much in his individual interests:
within few months the legisla-
ture of Washington will be in session
and it is none too soon to begin a
movement to change the lien laws.
AS they now stand they operate against
every man that is a logger or buyer.
The uncertainty of title has a contin-
ual tendency to weaken the prices,
while payments are often deferred by
the purchaser until the logs are cut
up and beyond the danger of liens.
Every lumber district in the state
should see That It's representatives I'M
derstand the unwholesome conditions
now existing, and work for their
amendment"
The loggers might well ask them
selves which side of the fence Sol
Simpson would be found, in the event
he occupied Il seat in the legislature
and that bill was up for consideration.

APROPos of the visit of the visit of
Congressman Wilson to this city it
may not be out of place to relate a
little incident which will illustrate one
characteristic of the man. 1t will be
remembered that a bitter discussion
arose in the house over the notorious
Havemeyer sugar trust bill, and many
OF the democrats denounced it in the
strongest terms. This feeling was in
tensified by the publication of Presi-
dent Cleyeland's letter, denouncing
the measure as the elimination of
party perfdy and dishonor. After a
vigorous application of the party lash
a sufficient number of democrats
were whipped into line to pass the
bill. They were sullen and mad for
the people of the whole country were
denouncing them. Just after the
passage of the bill Congressman Will
son arose in his place and with appar-
ent seriousness asked if a reading of
the Presidents letter would not be
in order. The democrats, wild with
rage, smarting under the taunt, could
hardly control themselves, while The
republicans were correspondingly ju-
bllant. A gentleman was present in
formed the writer that pandemon-
ium reigned for time, and John L.
made a ten strike.-Mont esano vi

THE ring organ in public, and the
whole crowd in private. is working
tooth and nail to down Maxwell, and
all sorts of fool things are being sprung.
The animus of the whole thing ap-
pears in last weeks Tribune, in the
statement that Mr.. Maxwell has said
that he would not keep the County
funds in the bank, if elected. We do
not know whether Mr.. Maxwell said
this or not, but we do know that the
the bank or any other crowd could
not "run" him, and, of course, he
would not do for treasurer in the esti-
nation of the gang. At any rate,
everything on the democratic ticket
is being slaughtered by them to elect
McPhail. The gang wants to elect
Treasurer, above all; Attorney, comes
handy, so the legal affairs of the
county are bottled, aud the Sheriff
and Representative would be accepta-
bic. We leave to the voters, who know
both men, as to which has the best
business ability. The one has pros
pered as saloon keeper, and the other
as hveJyman. Which is your choice?

Editorial Notes.

MURDERER Blank has been Sentenc-
ed to hang for the shooting OF Seat
tie saloon keeper, in an attempt at
robbery. The execution will take
place on Dec. 7, and will be the second
legal hanging in the history of King
county. A triple necktie party oc-
Cured in Seattle years ago, under the
auspices of Judge Lynch.
We have received an invitation to
the launching OF the new whaleback,
steel barge City of Everett, which oc-
cured at that city on Wednesday,
This is the first steel barge construct
ed by the new plant, and large num-
Der of prominent men from all parts
the state took part in the cermonies,
including Gov. McGraw.
"PEoPLE know" says the Kansas
City Journal, "that under Republican
rule they had prosperity and under
Democratic rule their prosperity dis
appeared. Campaign argument is 60
ing to cut but little figure alongside a
fact of this sort" There is whole
arsenal of campaign speeches in that
sentence.
THE democratic state committee
has apparently abandoned the hope of
the election of any part of the state
ticket, and are bending all their ener-
gies to the election of Wallace men to
the legislature, to the end that nation
al committeeman Wallace may receive
as large a complimentary vote for U.
S. Senator as possible. They are max
ing quiet fight to elect Simpson from
Mason county.
If ne :nte@ued IL do Any mud-sling-
ing III this campaign the JOURNAL
would harp Oh the fact that the league
of the alleged Equal Rights, compos-
ed of Democrats and few former
Republicans, was the sponsor-the
wet-nurse-of the county democratic
ticket. This league is simply de-
lectable combination of the old politi-
cal bosses and ringsters, which has
wheedled and misled number of
otherwise sensible people into uphold
ing them and their actions. The
eyes of these deluded mortals are
fast being opened, for on careful con-
slderation, they must know that no
good can come from this crowd-at
least it isn't in some of them. "How
we apples do SWIM"
ONE of the cOgent arguments, and
one characteristic of local democracy,
as rule, is now being lavishly circu-
lated over the county. We presume
all its campaigners are supplied with
a liberal quantity. 1t is whisky! 1t
used to go in this county, but will it
now? that is the question. We have
higher regard for the morality, respect
and sense of decency of our people.
When a candidate approaches YOU
with a bottle of whisky, it contains
this as ertion: 81 think you a man
without respect, without principle-al
very cheap man, and 1 offer you a
drink of very cheap whisky. These
are good old Democratic times, and il
Is all l can afford to pay. Anyhow,
It's all your vote is worth" Of course.
this is not expressed in so many
words, but under the guise of "good-
fellowship" But it really conveys a
mighty poor impression of the intelli-
gence of the voter who is won by
such means, and shows that he is
disgrace to American citizenship.
Drink the liquor. il you must, but look /
twice into the man who offers it to
you.
