commit d the murder was pointed out,
nothing was done.
There we're many other tough scenes
in Lemont that night, some OF which
were tragic. Let us go back just little
and look at the case of Andrew Ryn-
lander highly respected foreman on
the drainage channel, who held his po-
sition with the same firm for fourteen
years He was generally sober man
and always considered honest and re-
liable. On the night Of his murder he
was known to have on his person $3.50,
a revolver and watch. He is known to
have been In a number OF different sa-
looms and the report is current that he
was last seen in resort that is said TO
pay heavy tips for protection. In
this establishment the lights were ex-
tinguished and the man who was with
Rynlander was run out. Next morning
Rynlander was not at his post as fore
man. The firm suspected at once that
something must be wrong. A few days
later the body was found in the canal,
money, watch and revolver gone. An
effort was made by friends to detect the
murderer. bnt no satisfactory solution
OF murder was unrayeled by means Of
which the criminals might be brought
to justice. These are but two, and the
story of the score Of others is but a
repetition of what has been said Of

SURPRISING THE NEWS.

Flagstaff Democrat: The main mr. pose of a newspaper is to publish the news, and it grieves an editors soul to suppress matters that are of public in- terest. Because prominent citizen or citizeness does something that brings him or her into notice there is no reason why they should not be en- titled to all the fame that cold tyne can give them. That is, if it is not a private affair. There are some things too sacred for publication, and with these newspaper has no right to med dle.
 But it makes us sad to listen eter- nally to the appeals of people who don't want anything said in the paper although at the same time the matter of whatever nature it is, may be the common property of the gossips and There may be those who differ with us, but we believe the mission of the news department of

MISREPRESENTING THE FACTS

Padded returns are characteristic
 ally Democratic, but they are usually
 palmed off on the people of communi-
 ties. It is not often that attempts are
 made to fool the people of the whole
 country by deliberate misrepresenta- tions of this sort. But the Chicago h. ter Ocean calls public attention to a very neat scheme to magnify the work ings of the last tariff act by padding the returns of the number of factories which have increased wages and the number of hands affected by such in- crease. It has carefully investigated semi-official statement issued under the auspices of the free trade reform CTS, which purported to give a list of the leading manufacturing establish ments which had increased wages dur ing the first year of the new tariff art
 The result of the investigation shows that nine or ten separate estab- hshments operated by the Carnegie company, under distinct names. were all counted twice, once separately and once under an aggregate enumeration The Illinois Steel company's 1000 hands are counted as an aggregate and and then the works at Joliet are coollv enumerated again and other works of the same company are counted twice The same game was korked extensive ly with the New England mills. The Fall River cotton mills are counted three times; the Lewiston mills with their 5000 hands, are duplicated. most of the Providence woolen mills are counted twice and some of them three times.
 The Democratic National bureau of statistics, of course, disavows this statement, but it was prepared and extensively distributed in the interest of the tariff policy of the Democratic National administration. The ex- exposure shows that much vaunted re- vivifying effects the German tariff act nave been somewhat overestimated.

ALL MINERS ADMITTED.
An Important Movement in the
Interest of Organized
Labor.
Great Increase In Strength and
Power of the Western
Federation.

DENVER, Colo, May 14.-The most i'm
portant work accomplished in many years
in the interest of organized labor was con-
summated to-day by the convention of the
Western Federation of Miners. The coal
miners unions, representing thousands of
men in several Western and Northwestern
States, were admitted to membership in
the federation.
The step was made without any extended
discussion, such as was anticipated, and
the proposition to admit carried by heavy
majority. The acquisition of the coal
miners makes the Western Federation of
Miners one of the most powerful labor
bodies in the country.
The result of to-day's action will be that
the federation, which now has over 40, 900
membership, will be greatly increased in
numbers and financial standing.
The trouble in Cripple Creek last year
was serious drain on the resources of the
order, but still it is said that the organiza-
ton has surplus of over half a million
dollars. To-day's meeting appointed a
committee on revision of the constitution
and bylaws. 1t is said that little revision
is needed and that SO far as the admission
of the coal miners is concerned there
would be no necessity for any.
The federation was organized on the
basis that every miner in the West could
be member, and it was never intended
that its membership should be confined to
metalliferous miners.
The convention determined that the en-
ployment of an organizer for the entire
West was a necessity, and it is probable
that such an official viii be appointed.
Heretofore the different organizations
have been under the supervision of State
president and were controlled by him. By
the new arrangement all the States and
Territories as far east as Kansas and all
north, south and west of Colorado will be
included

AN UGLY CRISIS REACHED,
England Refuses to Re-enact
Last Years Sealing
Regulations.
Poachers VIII Probably Have Every
thing Their Own Way in
Boring Sea.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 14.-An
ugly crisis has been reached in the nego-
tiations between the United States and
Great Britain looking to the adoption of
uniform relations for the government of
the seal fisheries this season. The British
Government positively refuses to re-enact
the regulations of last year which pro-
hibited the carrying of firearms by sealing
vessels through the sea north of the 25th
parallel during the closed season. The
United States officials look upon this as
disastrous to the seal fisheries, holding that
the result will be to relieve the pelagic
sealers of the only restriction which has
operated to prevent an unlimited slaughter
of the herds. While killing by firearms re-
mains illegal, it is realized that it will be
impossible to enforce this prohibition if
arms may be freely carried, for the sealers
would kill secretly unless they should hap
pen to be under the very eye of revenue
cutter.
Meanwhile the United States cutters
have gone out under the old instructions
to seize all vessels carrying arms not under
seal. These must be modified speedily by
orders sent through the Alaska CONNER
cial Ccmpany's steamer which leaves San
Francisco N day or two, or else there
may be another big claim for damages on
account of illegal seizures filed by the
British Government. The attitude of the
latter is viewed with much dissatisfaction
at the State Department, which is regarded
as an evidence of the unwarrantable con-
cession to the Canadian pelagic sealers.
1t is also held that the effect of the British
action is to practically nullify all measures
of protection for the seals that were con-
ferred by the Paris arbitration, and it
would not be surprising if this course is per-
sisted in that it will result in declaration
by the United States of the abrogation of
the treaty.
LONDON, Eng, May lathe Foreign
Office, referring to the report that Great
Britain has decided not to renew the agree
ment with the United States regarding the
sealing up of arms and implements of
sealing vessels, says that there was practi-
cally no such agreement, but that the
sealers were glad for their own protection
to apply to the customs official at the end
of the season to seal up their pelagic
weapons.
