Another War Of Rates.

Another rate war is on between the
ocean steamers plying between San
Francisco and Puget Sound. The Pa
ci6c Coast Steamship Co. began its
war against the sailing craft, Tuesday,
by taking freight At 81 per ton, cut
of So. The Walla Walla is the first
steamer to leave under the new rates.
The rates were reduced several months
ago by the steamer Farallon, but she
was chartered by the old company and
placed on another route, when the
old rates were restored. The mer-
chants of San Francisco and the Sound
then placed on line Of sailing ves-
sells, to carry freight, and now the old
company are making an effort to drive
them from the field. 1t has been ru-
mored that the steamship Wenatchee
would be brought to this coast for &C.
tive competition, but the report, 50
far, has not been verified.

Voorhees, on Silver.

"No other form of money on the
face OF the EARTH" says Dan Voorhees,.
d" could have wi:hstood, as silver has
done, such a malignant, unsparing
crusade as the last twenty-five years
have witnessed in this country. 1t
still holds its place in the affections
and confidence OF the people. Bat
tered, bruised and tattered as it has
been, yet it will buy and pay all the
debts that gold will pay unless a spec
ial contract has been made for gold.
The American people will nevef give
it up, and the sooner the minions of
the aggres sive, insolent, consolidated
wealth and arrogant apostles of gold
monometallism realize and act upon
this fact, the better and safer it will be
for them in the future of this country.
In every State and Territory from
the western side of the Allegheny
mountains to the Pacific Coast silver
has been known and endorsed to the
people for three-qusrters OF a century,
not merely as sound money, not
merely as honest money, but as land
Office money besides. With it their
homes were bought and paid for, and
not much patience remains with them
or their defendants for those who
stand and stigmatize the great white
metal which has done the work so

The Peoples Store Co., of Tacoma
have purchased site fronting 100 feet
on Pacific Avenue and 120 feet on
Eleventh street, for what they intend to
be the model department store OF the
northwest. The new building will be
three stories in height with a base
ment, partially underground. It will
be constructed of brick and plate
glass. The openings will be large, 10
as to give ample light to every floor.
A broad stairway will lead to the base
ment which will be brilliantly lighted
by electricity, and this story will be
devoted to house furnishing goods,
crockery, chinaware, etc. The upper
stories will be lighted from the roof as
we'll as the sides. Along side the
grand stairway leading to the upper
floors will be two eievators-one for
passengers and the other for freight.
Three floors will be devoted to their
immense retail trade and the other to
their rapidly developing wholesale
business.
The second floor will be the most
interesting, devoted as it will be to
ladies' supplies Of all kinds, and it will
have ladies' reception room, toilet
rooms, and all the conveniences for
comfort that modern experience sug-
gests.
The Peoples Store Co. is one of the
permanent institutions of our State,
and it will be seen that it will con-
tinue to be, as it ever has been, in the
lead.

A Plan for Thorough Work.

1t is proposed to make the discus.
sion of the silver question by w. H.
Harvey and Roswell g. Horr. very ef-
fective, if the plan announced is car
ried out. 1t is not to be q contest of
lungs and brass, in which the victor
shall be he who has the greatest pow
ers of endurance, but face to face
conflict, in which . chapter from
Coins Financial School shall be made
the basis for each days consideration.
The affirmations of one side will be
subjected to cross-exsmination by the
other and the answers will be steno-
graphically reported and published in
book form for general distribution.
Both contestants shall select twenty
assistants-ten each-who will, at the
end OF each session, supply any infor-
nation, or meet such points, as may
have been omitted by the chief dis
purtants. These assistants will, or
should be, men eminent on finance.
The sessions are to last three hours
each day and will begin about July
10th. The place where the discussion
will take place has not yet been an

Are Preferred Warrants Legal ?

The Treasurer OF Pierce county is
in quandry. A short time ago, A.
N. Jordan, who holds q warrant upon
the Treasury, applied for action OF
court to compel the Treasurer to pay
his warrant from moneys that had, by
direction of the Commissioners, been
set aside for contingent expenses.
This relief was refused by Judge
Pritchard, whereupon Mr.. Jordan,
through his attorney, filed notice with
the Treasurer, that he will hold
him Individually responsible for all
amounts paid on warrants issued sub
sequent to that in payment of his
claim. He bases his action upon q
decision of the Superior Court in the
cases of Mason vs.. Purdy, and the acts
of the Legislature found on pages rs,
$50 and $50 OF the session laws of 1898,
requiring warrants to be paid in the
order Of their issuance. The Treas
urer, since the denial of the manda-
mus, is At loss to determine whether
it is not in effect prohibition against
the payment Of all claims, until those
interested in the "salary fund" shall
take steps to have their side of the
question judicially determined.

ANOTHER FOOLISH UNDERTAKING
As result Of wager between w. T.
Williams, jr., son of Deputy District
Attorney Williams, and his uncle, Of
Los Angeles. CAL, curious trip is to
be undertaken. It is no less than a
circumnavigation of the globe, which
must be accomplished within two
years by Williams and his girl wife.
The young couple are to leave the
Russ house at night without a cent
and no other clothing than that upon
their backs. Every bit of money
which is to carry the travellers over
$4,000 miles must be earned on the
road. The start will be for the north,
San Francisco, Portland and Seattle
being visited, then the road lies
straight for the Orient. The under
taking is actuated by a desire for
sightseeing and adventure, as we'll as
by the $1,000 purse which is up on
the venture.

BANKER J. r. Edmiston was, last
Saturday, at North Yakima, found
guilty of receiving deposits for the
Walla Walla Savings Bank after he
knew that the institution was insol-
vent. Four months ago, the jury dis
agreed, after AZ hours OF heated dis
cussion. The second trial begun on
Tuesday, of last week. The defence
seemed confident of acquittal, as the
most damaging evidence was that of
Leon Phipps, former Teller of the
bank, himself under indictment for
forgery. The jury was out "a hours,
and finally agreed upon conviction.
The result was q terrible surprise for
the defense. A motion was made for
Q new trial.

Republican OF that city he said:

the people to be to the wall all the

ie!ing from the most terrible panic
ever witnessed by Us and it certainly
cannot get any worse.
Z" For many years the people, that
is the rank and file, have left the FIN
ancial part OF the government to the
bankers, and whatever they have done,
! feel safe in saying, has not been in
the interest of the laboring people,
and it is high time that the people be-
gan to think on this subject for them
selves, and, for one, | mean to exer-
else some thought on the money sub.
ject. II the change OF this country to
! free silver means the failure Of Drexel
Il Co. and other banking houses that
cling to the gold-bug idea, then, for
one. say, let them so and the sooner
the better.
Although silver was demonetized
in 1873, yet it had something OF a
show until the recent bond issue. We
borrowed money then and we owed
debts TO England, but our bonds were
to he paid back in coin, perhaps gold
or silver or perhaps in copper. 1t was
to be in coin of the United States
out the Cleveland Carlisle bond issue
says the bonds must be paid in GOLD
coin. Let this debt continue to pile
up as it has for the past six months
and there will hardly be any use il
giving silver her place as one of the
monies, for our debts will all have tC
be paid in gold coin As contracted"

Revival of Industries.

In Bradstrest's for June ara tables
showing that very marked revival of
industrial interests prevails through
out the United States. The summary
is as follows: ave find that no fewer
than 227 of the more important idle
industrial establishments throughout
the country have lighted their fires
within the PAST eight weeks, and fur
nished work to more than $4,000 en-
ployes.. But entirely aside from this,
is the showing that the wages OF fully
l7S,O0O industrial employees has been
advanced since April 1. But the full
significance of the statement is only
rendered possible when it is shown
that within the last two months only
$4,000 operatives have been involved
by new strikes, and that of these only
$4,000 struck for higher wages. The
strength and extent OF the voluntary
increase Of wages OF industrial en-
ployes is indeed = most encouraging
exhibition OF the force of the underly-
ing conditions of improvement of gen.
eral business throughout the country.
Let US hope that this confidence ia
not misplaced, aud that these glim-
merings OF better times may deepen
into the full sunlight of prosperity.

Great Scott

National Committeeman n. B.
Scott predicts that S. B Elkins will
be nominated for President on the
second ballot in the National Repub-
lican Convention. He thinks Elkins
will have on the fist ballot solid dele
cations from California, Arizona, New
Mexico. Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Wyo-
ming and Washington, and a strong
following in Kansas, Nebraska and
the Dakotas. Stephen B. Elkins, the
gentleman named, was born in Ohio
in 1871; removed to Missouri when
young and graduated at the University
of that State in 1860; studied law ;
went to the Territory OF New Mexico
in 1868; was q member of the Legis-
ture; made a fortune from mining
and stock-raising; held the offices of
District Attorney. Attorney General
and u. S. District Attorney in the
Territory, and was elected Delegate to
the Forty-third and Forty-fourth SEES
sion of Congress. In 1875 he became
interested in the West Virginia system
OF railroads, and afterwards became a
resident of New York. He was a
member of the Republican National
Committee from 1872 till 1884. He
took an active part in the Chicago
Convention of 1884, that nominated
Blaine for President, and a promi.
nent position in the canvas for his
election.
Mr.. Scott favors a platform which
shall be in keeping with Elkins'
lately expressed sentiments recogniz-
ing the white metal, but not declaring
unqualifiedly for free coinage. He is
what the Olympian would call q
"straddle-bug." 1t is altogether prob.
able, however, that Committeeman
Scott is talking through his hat"
1t is rather early yet to predict who
the gold.bug party will put forward
for their standard. bearer next year.

mining commissioner to the monetary
commission of 1876, and author of {" "A

NASoSSN WV SOuNCllkIOu.
He claimed that any system of
money which does not point to SUBJ
stantial stability Of prices, is destined
to speedy overthrow; that at no time
in the history of the world had there
been such an inequitable and wide
spread disturbance of prices nor had
such an unfavorable and undeserved
change of opportunity for business
thrift occurred, as since the day when
the coinage of silver began to be
checked.
The inadequacy of the volume o.
redemption money was, he claimed
shown by the conditions which pre-
vail everywhere. Over Is per cent. o.
the exchanges of the world arc tran
sacted on promises to pay. The de-
crease of primary money, at a time
when the growth of commerce, in an
age of steam and electricity, required
its expansion, has been go enormous
that it has produced the most start
ting and disastrous results. The evi
can only be remedied, he declared, BY
. restoration of the ancient coinage
laws of the republic.

Want Both Metals.
Under date OF May 18th, the Satur
day ReriCW OF London saws:


day Rericw of London says:
" 1t is reported that the Presidents
policy OF so-callcd honest money is not
making much progress. Everything
goes to show that the Democrats of the /
Southern and Southwestern, and even !
Of the Western States. are in favor of /.
free silver coinage. and neither President |
Cleveland nor Mr., Carlisle can control
them. Silver recommendation would
stimulate agriculture in the United
States, a. it has done in India; but we
Ito not believe that the Eastern States,
the bankers and creditors OF the coun-
try will allow measure to become law
which would reduce their accounts by
one-half"
1t is not expected that our English
cousins should be able to view this
question from the plane OF the labor
ing classes OF this country. England
is controlled by quite a different rule
from that which prevails here. Our
government is founded upon the idea
OF equal and exact justice to all, and
special privileges to none. Gold and
silver have gone hand III hand, ever
since this government was instituted,
until 1873, when the white metal was
demonetized. 1t is to restore that
parity which had been productive OF SO
much prosperity that the present agi-
tation is going on. 1t is to restore BIZ
metallism, and not establish mono
metallism, that the people insist that
the dollar in the poor mans pocket
shall be equal to the gold dollar in the
rich mans vault. 1t is to enable the
debtor to pay his debts without lessen.
ing the creditors share, and relieve
him from the necessity of paying two
dollars for each one he has been COM
PEELED to borrow.
In one position the Reuiew is right.
Bimetallism will stimulate agricrlt-
ure" and all other industries, and it is
to bring this desirable result about
that the people, sixteen to one, are In
favor OF returning to the good times
when everybody had a right to the
just rewards of his own labor. 1t is
no wonder here, no matter how it may
be viewed in country that is under
the thumb of the privileged classes,
that neither President Cleveland nor
Secretary Carlisle can control" the
masses on a matter OF such vital i'm
portance. Here the people rule, when
an issue is so clearly defined that all
understand it.
