is not today in the slightest
danger from what is termed the
anarchists. There is not a more
loyal people than ours on the
face of the globe and if the gov
eminent were in the slightest
danger millions would rush to
it's defence. Our danger lies
in another direction. It comes

Women Should Register.

The women ofSt. Louis county
should see to it that they are
registered before election day
November 3.
The office of county superin-
tendent of schools is an import
ant one and every loyal Ameri-
can woman should cast one vote
on that day. In our Judgment,
c, A. Mccain is the most de-
sirable candidate tor that office
and should receive, and is de-
serving of the support, Of the
citizens of St. Louis county.
Mr.. Mccain is a resident of
Eveleth. He is a man of ability
and integrity; capable in every
way to fulfill the duties of county
superintendent satisfactorily and
creditably.
Furthermore, the aspiring can
didate is a resident of the country
districts and the office of county
school superintendent should be
allotted to that portion of St.
Louis county which is under the
direct jurisdiction of such office
and should not be given to a
Duluth resident when the c0un-
try districts have put up a can
didate that is qualified in every
way to fill the position, as
is the case in the present cam
paign.

Prices and Silver.

The festive gold bug denies
that there is any relation be-
tween the fall of prices and the
characterization of silver. Its
hard to argue with a gold bug.
His training or prejudices are such
that he fails to appreciate the
force of either facts or logic. The
gold bug, we fear, lacks reason
ing power. They say crow can
count three but no more. A gold
bugs mathematical powers seem
to be limited to calculatingin inter-
est, subtracting from wages and
adding up big majorities for
Mark Hanna's candidate before
election day.
Now for the benefit of those
people who aren't gold bugs we
want to call attention to the
fact that the characterization of
silver didn't knock the price of
silver bullion down to 81 cents
per ounce in 80 minutes. The
gold bug says that because wheat
didn't fall until long after '73,
decentralization of silver was
not the cause of it's falling. AS
it was the fall of silver bullion
that demonetized the price of
wheat, wheat didn't fall SO per
cent in 80 minutes either.
The price of silver hullio n was

A great and extensive coun-
try, industrious people, good
crops, surplus of everything;
at peace with the world; and in
the midst of all these great
blessings business men are
forced to the wall, farmers,
after working from daylight till
dark to mature a crop, after
selling the same at beggarly
prices, are forced to mortgage
their land to the bank or money
lenders for enough money to
carry them through the winter;
thousands of men out of en-
ployment, people starving for
bread is the picture of life in
this great free, CD America to-
day. And still the wise states
men tell us that it is overpro-
duction; lack of confidence that
is causing all the misery. What
a fertile brain it must have
taken to have made such a dis
covery! Think of it, people are
starving because crops are too
good, (what a blessed thing it
would beto havea famineD and
people going poorly clad be-
cause there has been an over
production of clothing-bosh!
Shylock then says that money
is scarce; give me your wheat
for fifty cents bushel, your
cotton for five cents a pound,
and if you do not have money
enough to pay your taxes and

The government should not
try to make fortunes for mill
ionaires from the profits of the
transportation trade, but should
carry all passengers, freight,
fast freight, baggage and ex-
press matter as it does the
mails, at cost. Then people
could travel for two and a half
cents per one hundred miles,
cross the continent between it's
most distant points for 81, or
go from San Francisco to New
York for seventy-five cents.
Freights of every kind and
class could be moved for one
cent or less, per ton or less, per
mile or less. Railway monopo-
lists have been charging ex-
tortionists rates so long that
people, can, at first hardly be-
lieve these things possible
yet publisher, today, can send
one hundred pounds through
the United States mail for 81,
that is, one cent per pound. At
that rate a one hundred and
fifty pound man could, today,
cross the continent, in bag of
newspapers for $3.50. Letter
postage is two cents per ounce,
that is thirty-two cents per
pound, and at that rate a one
hundred pound man could
cross the continent for $32. The
mail has to be handled by from
eight to twenty-five men from
the time it leaves the writer till
it reaches the reader. A pas
senger does not have to be
handled at all-he walks into
car and walks out and costs less
to haul than an animal or
freight of any kind. The inter-
est on the money, for one day,
invested in the coach in which
he rides is greater than the in
terest for one day, on the money
invested in hog car, but the
cost of handling the hog is
greater than the interest on the
seat in a passenger coach. The
average hog is only charged
$1.16 for crossing this great
American continent, while the
passenger is charged $151.50.
Still the politicians tell us that
the passengers can vote and
control this country; yet the
hog seems to be the favored
and suDeriOr being.

Marshfield. Or, August ls.-News was

Weddebun Sunday afternoon, in which
Grant Baxter lost his life and Fl. w.
Fountain was wounded in the leg.
The report says that the trouble was
over May Smith. a half-breed Indian.
Baxter was in love with the girl and
Fountains attentions to her aroused
his ire so that he entered the saloon
and coming up behind Fountain struck
him a blow that knocked him down.
Fountain while down pulled out his
gun and attempted 10 shoot his as
sallant. but the gun snapped. Baxter
then drew his gun and fired at Foun-
tain, the bullet taking effect in the
fleshy part Of his leg. Fountain then
fred two more shots both hitting Bax-

Baxter died instantly.
At the last report Fountain had given

prayer, plunged into the river, and
was seen no more. The man from

MY friends, the silver mine-owners
will be cheated with the rest. A gov
ernment can never be generous, be-
cause If 1t be generous TO one II must
be oppressive TO another. But this
financial scheme contemplates an in
crease in the price Of certain commodi-
ties. II the price Of commodities be
increased. and the price Of labor be
left stationary, why that means the
cutting down of the rate Of wages
The more abundant the product, the
higher the wages. There cannot be
abundant product unless labor is ex-
tensiyely employed.
Mr. Bryan would have you believe
that prosperity is advanced by cheap
ening the rate OF wages, but fall in
the rate Of wages always comes from
narrow production, and narrow pro
duction means there is little demand
for labor in the market"

-narrah for Locomotive

The British bark Chelmsford, which
arrived Monday, loaded with fshplates'
bolts and steel rails. will today tie up
at the new dock at Flayel and com
mence discharging at IL o'clock
Through an error in yesterdays issue
the tonnage Of rails was given as ljVO
when IT should have read Sle0.
President t. H. Curtis, Mr.. Gosslin,
Chief Engineer Jameson and others
visited the Chelmsford and FlaVei and
made arranvements for her quick dis
charge In the afternoon Superintend-
ent Lester will run string Of hatcars
onto the new dock, and as the rails
are taken from the ship they Will De
loaded directly on the cars and run
through Warrenton to the bridge where
the track gang will proceed to put
them in place. Mr.. Curtis says they
will work as many men as possible on
the bridge, but as the rails have TO be
handled over the ends Of the cars, and
as there is little room for many men
to work, it will take longer to lay the
track than It would If they were work
ing on solid ground. Barring any ac-
cidents, however, he anticipates hav-
ing everything ready to run the first
train in from Seaside for the early Sun
day morning passenger. This will be
a great event in the history OF Asto-
ria, and following so closely on the
heels Of the regatta, with the city al
ready handsomely decorated, 1t would
certainly not be unbecoming to cele-
brate the event in a fitting manner
Captain tGreenleaf, Of Portland might
possibly decide to visit the beach at
that time, and bring with him one oI
two of his big guns. Whether he does
or not, there are plenty Of Chinese
bombs and fire crackers.
Mr.. Densmore was yesterday ap'
pointed foreman Of the rail gang, and
as he is an experienced man in his de-
partment, and it goes without saying
that If in the power Of human beings
the rails will be laid to the o. r. anC

dent Curtis thinks they will call tbs
