SEATTLE, June 10. 1894.
To THE EplToR: The sensational items
sent out 20 certain papers from Olympia
do me great injustice, and l cannot re-
frain from calling public attention thereto.
The man Langton failed to get warrant
until I had demanded that complaint be
lodged and judicial investigation had
demanded an immediate hearing, which
the prosecuting attorney would not con-
sent TO on account of other engagements.
He ana Justice Rathbun then arranged for
a hearing next Tuesday. told them
had previous business engagements at Port
Townsend, and would 60 there and return,
arriving home Friday. / requested that
ne have all papers ready by that time, and
assured him I would Immediately make
necessary appearance and recognizancs on
my return. / LETT on this mornings
steamer, and as soon as my back was
turned another warrant was sworn out be-
fore a different justice. and upon my ar
rival in Seattle / am confronted with q
telegram to the chief of police to detain
me, and Sheriff Prince arrives later, COM
manded to take me back 10 Olympia forth
with. No bond authorized, no alternative
is presented but 10 subject myself to In
convenience, annoyance and loss oil time,
money and business. Any one outside Of
lunatic asylum knows that man in his
right mind would never run away from a
charge of assault and battery. The pro-
ceedings on their face bear the unmistaka-
bic stamp of malice and vindictive spite.
An attempt is being made to man
ufacture a sensation, and l arm bounded
like fugitive criminal
The case is one in which q child in my
custody was punished by me in my usual
method of Furnishing my own children
by spanking it on the bullock with my
open hand. When my attention was
called by Langton to the discolored condi-
ton of the child's skin next day / imme-
diateiy told him il must have resulted
from the spanking: that / had not had the
slightest idea of injuring the child, and
would have been just as liable to have
hurt one of my own boys in the same
way, having often spanked them Just as
was spanked myself when ! was little. /
told him l was exceedingly sorry, but that
had evidently punished the child more
severely than realized at the time. l at
once called on q physician and took him
to examine and prescribe for the little one,
and to do everything possible for its com.
fort. The injury has been greatly exag-
gerated. and street corner gossip has all
tended in this direction. Rivalry among
physicians has tended also to magnify the
matter. Spite workers, actuated by va
rious motives, have also egged on a vindic-
tive man who openly boosted his purpose
to have revenge. The whole matter is
reaching point where animus is shown
beyond all reason or justice. II any mis-
demeanor has been committed-even un-
wittingly-the fact should be determined
by the proper officers of the law, not by or
through newspapers or street gossip. Very
truly, ALLEN WEIR.

The union processes 70 aim to be an or
gsnization which will embrace all EN-
ployes Of railroads throughout the United
States. It's managers, however, are un-
willing 20 acknowledge as brothers their
fellow workmen who happen TO have been
born with black skins. Their next move
will doubtless be 20 protest against the
employment Of colored men by railroads.
and thus they will seek to establish a
monopoly Of railway labor from the bene-
fits of which coiored men will be excluded.
1t Is the boast Of these organizations
that II IL their object to elevate labor. II
Is 10 be feared, however. that an organiza-
ton which turns its back on the future and
refuses membershipto honest and compe-
tent workmen simply because they are
coIored will not do much to elevate or

CoxEY ARMY OF SQUIRRELS.
Rodent Commonwealers Dissatisfied
With Their Lot in whitman County.

A COXEY ARMY OF SQUIRRELS.
Rodent CommonwsaIers Dissatisfied
With Their Lot In whitman County.
Rosalia Rustler.
A strange and peculiar notion has taken
hold of the little ground rodents the last
week or so-a notion to travel-and they
are having q regular Coxey army time of
it. But, unlike the Coxeyites. they are
travelling west instead of east. Many
farmers living west of here and especially
along Rock creek bring in reports of the
strange migration of the squirrels. The
last few days the farmers have noticed o
general movement on the part of the
squirrels toward the west. They have
been observed to swim Rock creek and
other small streams by the dozen. Many
are drowned while crossing. No plausible
explanation has yet been offered by any
one as to the cause of this movement.
They are apparently shiftless and dissat-
isfied swarm, in this regard prototype of
the Commonwealers, and are simply hunt
ing for the promised land.
For the past few years, until the present
one, this vicinity has been troubled q great
deal from the ravages' of this pest and the
exception this year has been remarked by
the farmers who remember the fearful
damage wrought in other years. Appar-
ently tueIc ID no IcasOu Why thCy cAouiu
not be as numerous this year as heretofore,
but it is fact, they are not. The con-
dition is reversed. however, south and
west OF here. A gentleman recently
passed through the st. John country and
reports the squirrels out by the millions.
The ground seems to move in waves so
thick are they. Further south and west
many of the grain fields contain nothing
but weeds-the squirrels have taken the
rest.
Very few squirrels are left In this
vicinity. TIE strange cumming tour now
in progress will be watched with deal OF
interest by the farmers TO the west It
would be great good thing If the march
would continue until the little animals
were well out of the country.

1t is highly creditable to the journalism
of New York that not single newspaper
there iustifies or excuses the sugar trust
jobbery, which received the sanction Of
the senate. There are great Democratic
and independents journals in New York
and Brooklyn, like the Herald, the Times.
the Sun. the World. the Evening Post and
the Eagle, all of them favoring the passage
OF q new tariff bill; but without exception
they denounce the sugar trust infamy as
earnestly as the Republican papers.
