Clallam Covnfy Courier.


Port Angeles IS today receiving more
general recognition from the Pacific coast
press than ever In the past. The public
is convinced that this unequaied harbor
Will without further delay be connected
with transconiinental railway systems
Even hostile and rival cities realize the
rre-eminent geographical location OF Port
Angeles. The certainty OF railway con-
struction gives positive force to the arsu-

With less than fifteen months remain

how to get together" The Populists,
especially Of this state. appear to be
equally in difficulty. but with reference
to another problem.
II ever there was any question as to
where the party at large would stand
on the expansion issue. Bryan's re-
nlarkable reception at the 81 banquet
in New York as contrasted with the
tepid enthusiasm of the SO banquet
would seem TO determine the matter.

ciared for Is TO /, the Democratic plat

gaunce issued bulletins yesterday after
noon saying they would begin hiring men
this moning, but union men who partir-
ipated in the demonstrations Saturday
to force non-unionists into the union
will not be hired. This preciptates the
threatened strike of the Marquette
range, involving 1000 men. but not over
a thousand are expected to resist the
companies. The men won't the compa-
MES to recognize their union. The qucs-
ton of wages is secondary. An injunc-

day which prevents the nnionists from
entering the shafts or otherwise intim-
dating the men or interfering with their
work.

holds Their Constitutionality.
Washington, April 4.-Much interest
was manifested by lawyers and others
in the decision Of the cases in the United
States supreme court yesterday invoiv.
ing the validity of the war revenue law.
The opinion was handed down by Justice
Peckham, who orally announced only q
bare summary of the written documents.
The opinion as prepared for preserva-
ton took up the various phases of the
subject, holding the law constitutional
as applied not only to stock exchanges,
but to live stock yards as well. the
principle being the same in all cases.
In speaking of the general powers of
congress as to taxation Justice Peck
ham said:
"In searching for proper subjects of
taxation to raise money for the support
of the government congress must have
the right to recognize the manner in
which the business of the country is
actually transacted; how, among other
things, the exchange of commodities is
effected; what facilities for the conduct
of business exists; what is their nature
and how they operate, and what, if any.
practicable and recognizable distinction
there may be between transaction
which is affected by means Of using ccr
tain facilities, and one where such
facilities are not ayailed Of by the par.
ties to the same kind of transaction
Having the power to recognize these
various facts it must also follow that
congress is justified, if not compelled,
in framing a statute relating to taxa.
ton, to legislate with direct reference
to the existing conditions of trade and
business throughout the country and to
the manner in which they are carried
on"
The Chicago Board of Trade is treat.

trade all over the country, the size of the
Chicago institution only serving to III
crease its Importance
