WINNIPEG, Feb. 25.-In the Manitoba

tice that tomorrow he would move the
house into committee to enter formal
protest against the threatened coercion
of the Ottawa government in respect to
Roman Catholic parochial schools. The
premier declares that the remedial bill
at Ottawa was being forced through
without an inquiry into the facts, and
he further declared the Manitoba gov.
eminent was willing to remedy any.
thing that could be shown to bear
harshly on Roman Catholics. It is be-
Geved the premier's action paves the
way for announcement Of the result Of
Sir Donald A. Smiths mission to Win
nipeg and every body is on the tiptoe Of
expectation. The premier's declaration
is taken to mean that If the Dominion
government authorities drop their
coercion bill he will undertake to settle
the difficulty himself.

ROCKPORT LETTER.
Special correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
Rockport, Tex, Oct. 1.-The duck
season has opened early and old
sportsmen predictit will be the best in
the last ten years on account of the
abundance of fresh water and from
condition of wild celery and other
feed for wild ducks, brant and geese.
Some fine bags have already been
made and the ducks appear to be in
fine condition. This will probably
be the last year for market hunting
as the people on the coast anticipate
bill which the next legislature will
probably pass prohibiting shipping
of game out of the state.
Oysters are abundant this year and
the last heavy rains have fattened
them to a remarkable extent, espec-
tally near the mouths of rivers and
creeks
Messrs. Jacob Waelder and II. Pas
ton, who have been here for the last
month, have gone TO the Pass for a
few days fishing.
DIR. Menger, of San Antonio, with a
party of friends, was here for a short
time and while out fishing their boat
was struck by an able-bodied squall.
The boatman tells a rich joke on the
good doctor. but the doctor intimates
that it was not half as bad as stated.

No ARMENIAN REFUGEES.

Thu. level headed American citi-
zen will thank that providence that
has so ordered matters in the nation
al congress that it is not lawful TO
dump those pauper Armenians on
American soil There does not APP
pear TO be one single reason why the
attempt should be made, other than
the one that has led the European
nations to dump their pauper hordes
on the soil of this western continent
until the stomach of the American
congress has revolted at the injus-
tice. Those Armenians are not the
class Of people that are wanted here.
They would only swell the pauper
list of this country, or if not that add
to her idle and dangerous classes.
The reports of the manner in which
they rival the impossible Turks in
handling dynamite and perpetrating
cruelties, do not show them desirable
citizens. BYen il, they were other
wise desirable There are in this coun-
try today two millions of unemployed
able bodied men men the greater por-
ton of whom would be at work were
work to be had. 1t is unnecessary
to swell the numbers of this army of
the idle. 1t is this fact, of millions of
idle hands that has caused all the po-
litical agitation of this present in IA
yor of free silver. Had there been
no Wilson bill, there would have
been no going to Europe for the pro-
ducts thai would under protective pol
icies been manufactured at home.
Had there been no buying of our sup
plies of the low priced labor of the
old world there would have been en-
ployment for the higher priced labor
of this new world. Had the labor
of this country been put to work man.
ufacturing those goods that we have
opened our markets TO from abroad,
there would have been money in the
pockets of the laborer to purchase
supplies with and this cry of hard
times would have been lost in the
roar of industrial progress. Had
there been no hard times cry, there
would have been no agitation for a de-
preciated currency and the credit and
prosperity of the country would not
have been put in pawn, as it has
been. Had there been no Wilson bill
the duties on the goods that the Unit
ed States does manufacture would
have been ample to protect the Amer
lean laborer and at the same time
raise revenue. Prohibitive immigra-
ton is the only solution of this in
dustrial question, and the present
laws restricting immigration should
be made doubly stringent 1t is in
this direction alone that relief lies.
A slice of bread is. better than none,
and all patriotic American citizens
will be glad that the present laws
block the road to the Armenian refu-
gees that would otherwise swarm
over the sea.
