CANCER IS DEADLY!

The Michigan Labor Herald con-
tains an adverse criticism of colonies
which is evidently made in a spirit of
fairness with view of giving the true
story of such amusements, but the
Herald has been led into an error by
its correspondent. The opinion of
the correspondent, that the location is
the worst possible in the state, is
equalled only by his statement that
every high tide washes over the town.
site.
We cannot say positively when the
tide swept over this site, but it must
have been centuries ago, as it is now
at least 60 or 70 feet above high tide.
He says that the task of clearing
the forests away is titanic and that
an equal amount of labor would buy
the best land in the most favored spot
of the nation, but he does not seem to
have learned as we have that labor
does not buy land, and then if we had
more respect for his ability to state
facts, we might have more confidence
in his Judgment.

"YALLER JOURNALISM"

Few, indeed, realize the prodigious

the United States during the last five
years. | doubt whether the socialists

damnable doctrine has rooted. doubt
whether the two great political par

strOus proportions which this child of
the devil has attained to. 1t has gain

even get glimpses of scenes of death

PROPERTY QUALIFICATIONS.

Under the scheme of government
proposed for Hawaii a senator is re-
quired to be male citizen of the
United States, 80 years of age, to
have resided in the territory three
years, to be the owner in his own
right of $4,000 worth of property,
to have received during the preceding
year 81 900 income. Representatives
must be 25 years Of age, male citizen,
must have lived three years in Ha-
waii; and must own property or have
an income of $3.50 year.
Voters for representative are requlr-
ed to be male citizens p years of age,
and residents of the territory for one
year, to have registered, to have paid
all taxes due the government, and to
be able understandings to speak,
read and write the English or Hawaii
language, To be qualified to vote
for senator's a person must possess all
these qualifications and be subject to
all conditions'required for voters for
representatives, and in addition own
property in his own right that is
worth 81 900, upon which valuation
legal taxes shall have been paid for
the year preceding that in which he
offers to register, or shall have actu-
ally received a money income of not
less than 5000 during the previous
year.
This is most encouraging devel-
opment to those of our toilers who
have been in the habit of regarding
themselves as voting kings, sover-
eigns, etc. If once established in Ha-
wall the rule will soon extend to
America. Then we slaves can boast
of the riches and titles of our masters
just as the black slaves did a genera
ton since.
White slavery will suit Americans
vastly better than black slavery.

The B c c was organized for the
purpose of socializing Washington,
and Industrial Freedom still favors a
marshalling of forces for this avowed
purpose, but any other attempts at
colonization which do not interfere
with the main object meets our hearty
appreciation.
1t is probably the duty of all B c c
members to do all they possibly can
to carry out the oft declared purpose
Of the c c, but those who can do
nothing for the success of the main
purpose ought not for this reason to
be prevented from doing all they are
able to do for the broader movement.
If there are those who cannot put
shoulder to the wheel, possibly they
can scotch, and if they are so inclined
they deserve encouragement.
