- E. To Help immigration.

I. A. Nadeau, general agent OF the
Northern Pacific railroad, and one OF
the recent delegates from Washington
to the immigration congress held at
St. Paul on the 10Th of this month,
has returned home. Mr.. Nadeau talks
enthusiastically of the work done and
after his report to the governor the re-
suits will soon manifest themselves IN
the form of state organization. Vi
this he feels certain.
The recent congress was the out
growth of the Sou thwestern emigration
and homeseekers excursions which
have occupied much attention in the
Middle West, especially the Southwest
for year back, and is an effort to
counteract and turn the tide OF immi-
grafton into the Northwest.
The congress was the direct result of
call by the governor of Minnesota
upon the governors of the Northwest
ern states to send delegates to confer
with others appointed by the Mime
sofa governor. This was done and
many delegates were sent, none enter
ing into the great scheme with more
enthusiasm than those named by
Washington's governor. Those sent
from this state we're: Ellis Morrison,
I. A. Nadeau, w. J. Morphy, Seattle;
A. G. Foster, Col. Albert Whyte, E. l..
Shaffner, Tacoma; E. F. Benson, O. A.
Fechter, North Yakima; A. Bolster,
Spokane; r. G. Gamwell, Fairhaven !;
P. S. Combs, Cheney; ]. S. Coolican,
John Cain, Port Angeles.
At the congress Central immigra
ton association was duly formed and
was named the Northwestern Immigra-
ton Association. The association is
permanent and in measure will con-
troll the work of the state organizations,
which are to be formed under it. T.
L. Shurmeirer of st. Paul was named
for president; Ellis Hughes of Port
land, Or, vice president; Donald Nc
Ginnis, st. Paul, secretary, and Mr..
McNair, st. Paul, treasurer.
Executive committees were named
for the various states to represent the
new association. For Washington,
Mr.. Nadeau suggested and had named
Samuel L. Crawford of Seattle, and H.
Rolster of Spokane and DR.. James
Van Marter of Tacoma were named,
there being three executive committee
men for each state represented.
immigration topics were generally
discussed and ways and means es-
pecially for securing immigration for
the Northwest.
"The Central bureau" said Mr.. Ma
uS0N1 40 w NOlh III UIlC CuClIC
west, and all literature issued by it
and efforts made will be made for the
whole Northwest without favor for any
particular state. The greatest good,
however, to come from the convention
is the enthusiasm it will engender in
the state associations that will be
formed in the various states supposed
to be auxiliary to the general associa-
ton. The local organizations will
really be the one from which the great
est good will come to the industrial
sections, as it will be pretty difficult
work for one organization to make an
efectual showing all through the line
of states extending along a parallel of
1000 miles. "-Times.

BUSINESS MEN AND FREE COINAGE
How Doubling of Prices Would Affect the
Sale of Goods.

How Doubling of Prices Would Affect the
Sale of Goods.
A large majority Of the business men
of this country are opposed to free coin
age and the adoption Of the silver stand
ard. But in few states, outside of the
silver producing sections Of the country,
some merchants have been led to favor
the cheap money movement through a
mistaken belief that free silver, by Civ
ing us more money, would increase the
demand for all kinds of goods and thus
add to the profits Of manufacturers and
traders. Another reason for the support
by some business men of the free coin
age scheme is their belief that the prices
Of all goods in stock would be doubled
by the adoption of the silver standard.
That free silver would bring bust
ness boom, which would encourage in
dustry and make the country more pros
porous, is favorite assertion Of the sill
verites But they never attempt to show
how this would be done, or how the
consumption of goods of all kinds upon
which the volume of exchanges depends
would be stimulated by the doubling of
prices, or by stamping zone dollar" on
all the silver bullion in the country.
People do not eat, drink or wear money.
If there were large stores Of silver dol
lars instead of bullion, trade and indus
try would not in any way be increased,
while it is certain that the immediate
result Of doubling prices by the silver
standard would be great falling off in
the demand for goods, since the work
ipgmen of the country would find their
wages buying only half as much as on
the gold standard. IF the business man
who has been attracted by the specious
promises Of the silverites will reflect for
moment, he will see that instead Of
encouraging trade the effect of doubling
prices would DO. to cause people to buy
less goods. Does he want that kind Of
free silver prosperity"
1t is true that the price of goods in
stock would be increased, but this would
be merely temporary benefit, and the
loss to merchants through the payment
of all outstanding accounts in 80 cent
dollars would far outweigh the slight
gain in that direction. So that in this
case also free coinage would be posi-
tive injury. And the panic which would
inevitably follow such financial up
heaval as the change from the gold to
the silver standard would bring wide
spread ruin and disaster

Clutchlng at Straws.

The Democratic papers, and notably the
N. Y. World are pointing, with great exul-
tation, to number of large factories and
mills where wages have been recently raised
as proof not only that prosperous times are
ahead, but that the general Democratic pol
icy was right, after after all.
l am quite willing to to admit that raise
2 in wages is a strong argument of return of
business confidence.
1t is not my purpose Eere to argue as to
what that return of confidence is due.
On that issue Republicans and Democrats
would naturally differ violently.
What do want to show Is the vast diff
ference between raise liz wages from a
normal standard, and a small raise from the
depths OF an abnormal cut.
If the Democratic policy had been follow
ed--as was promised-by raise in wages
over the the general standard prevailing in
1892, wonld frankly admit that / and
hundreds OF thousands of others had been
wrong, and that the Democratic leaders and
their allies, the Free-Traders and Tariff
reformers, were right.
But that was not the case. During 1898
and 1894 wages were cut in all industries
from rs to 45-yes, even to so and 60 per
cent.
Such cut in wages has not been witness
ed in this country in the memory of the
present generation.
And now that never mind from what
cause, small percentage of mills and facto-
ries have raised wages to Is per cent.
from the frightful cut of '93 and '94, the
Democrats and their newspapers are out
with shouts of Didn't we tell you so?
Our policy is vindicated, after all |"
Why even in the comparatively few cases
where wages have been recently raised, the
wages are still 90 to 80 per cent below the
standard of '92.
Let US take case which will cover
very multitude of wage earners.
Let us take the case of workers who got an
average Of 50 day in '92, that would be S12
week. The average cut in the wages of
these operatives was about rs per cent.
This reduced them to 80 per week, or
about $3.50 per day.
Now there has been in some cases-re-
member 1T is only some-a raise of 10 per
cent.
This would give the operatives little less
than $40 week, and they are still over 50
week behind the average of '92.
Even In the very few instances where the
raise has been Is per cent. it obvious that
the wages so raised are still far below what
they were in '92.
The Democratic outburst is, therefore, en-
tirely premature, and sayors of that clutch
ing at straws which characterizes drowning
men.-John G. Freund, in Music Trades.

Silver states do not seem to have any
prejudice against gold in carrying on
their own financial affairs. Utah banks
hold twenty-one times as much gold as
silver, Arizona banks nine times as
much. The Colorado banks possess over
$4,000 in gold and only one-tenth
of the amount in silver. While this is
eminently judicious it is not conclusive
reason for piling up mountain of sill
