PAUPER IMMIGRATION.

We hold ourselves out to the world
as the refuge Of the: oppressed and
downtrodden OF all nations. but the
limit Of that charitable principle is
reached when it comes to the impor-
tation OF pauper slave labor under
the guise OF beneticence. This is a
principle Of the Democratic platform,
that our farmers and artisans shall be
protected in their labor,and the Dem
ocraIc party means what it enun-
ciates in its platform. BY a strange
perversity the Republican platform
contains plank against foreign i'm
migration: aFor the protection OF the
quality OF our American citizenship
and OF the wages OF our workmen
again st the fatal competition of low
priced labor, we demand that the i'm.
migration laws be thoroughly enforc-
ed, and 30 extended as to exclude
from the United States those who
can neither read or write" The
grammar lis bad but that doesn't
count. The way the Republicans
are carrying out this plank in it's
platform ls by killing the sugar in
dustry Of the United States with
cheap labor Of Cuba, Hawaii and the
Philippines. The tobacco, rice and a
multitude Of other industries are to
be ruined by the millions OF savages
and the cheap labor, pauper labor
and slave labor. How does this pro-
tect the American workingmap
Moreover, SO exact is the Republican
administration in the performance of
its duty, 80 honorable and honest is it
that Chinese cheap labor and Italion
padrone system are even permitted
entrance to compete with the Ha-
waiian and Filipino, cheapness up
on cheapness. Yet the Republican
party can honestly say that this 1s
not foreign immigration; it is only
expansion. If the American work
ingman is to be ruined, is matters
little whether it is brought about by
expansion or immigration. The dis
tinction is not as wide as a door or
deep as well, but it is enough. The
Democratic party is opposed to this
method OF expansion and for that it
Ii denounced as nnarchistic.-Ex.

YOked to PlOws.

About 1000 Doukhobors, male and
and female, have been invited into
Canada by the immigrant agents in
Russia. They now form a very con.
siderable portion of the settlement in
the Northwest territories and are nat.
urally inclined to be clannish, They
form communities and settlements of
them own and carry on life in much
the same way they follow in semi.
barbaric Russia.
They bring many of the most prim-

customs with them, among them be-

female is made to work, and be USE

And the women never think of

wrong in their degradation. They

ATTORNEY HAMILTON FIRED on IN
BRISTOL COURTHOUSE.
Bristol, Va, March l2.-Gen. Jas.
A. Walker shot and probably NOR
tally wounded w. :. Hamilton here
last night, and himself received two
bullet wounds in the right shoulder,
causing dangerous injuries.
The trouble occurred in the room
where for many days dispositions
have been taken in the contest be-
teen General Walker and Judge
William f. Rhea, the Democratic
Congressman who succeeded General
Walker, winning his seat at the polls
after one of the hottest, closest AM
bitterest political fights that ever oc-
Cured in the Ninth District, if not
in all Virginia.
\ number of persons filled the
room where the evidence of witnesses
Was being taken, and counsel and
clerks, witnesses and friends Of either
side were on hand. Although the in
vesligation has been held from day to
day IN Bristol for many weeks, the
interest has grown rather lh4n dimin
lshed, and the people on either .ite
have been worked up to high state
Of feeling.
Numerous alterations have taken
place between principals and counsel.
and each has accused the other Of
bulldozing and sharp practice, and
the p esent difficulty is the result Of
long pent.up feeling on both sides.

Pa sig is Captured.
AMERICAN TROOPS FOUGHT ALL DAY
TO GIT THERE FROM MANILA.

Manila, P l., March l3-The fly
ing column under General Wheaton
started the aggressive campaign
against the Filhpinos this morning.
After an all-day fight the city of
Pasig, containing $4,000 inhabitants,
and seven miles east of Manila, on the
Pasig river, was captured.
The American column consisted Of
three troops of the Fourth Cavalry
on the extreme right and next in or
der the Twenty-second Infantry, the
Oregon volunteers and the Washing
ton volunteers. The last named, who
were on the extreme left, were oppc-
site Guadalupe, on the river.
A lieutenant ofScott's Battery fired
the signal gun at five minutes Of I
O'Clock, and at once the Fourth Cav
airy mounted and swung forward.
Then all the infantry regiments, form
eli in three lines, left their trenches
and moved on the Flliplnos.
The regularity of the advance was
clock-Iike. The cavalry met heavy
fire on the right. The men di'mount-
ed and drove the Filipinos out Of
their interenohments.
In the distance could be heard the
firing of General Ovenshine's brigade,
which had made ftint on the Amer
lean right. General Wheaton follow
ed the advance of the firing lines and
was with his staff in the forward
movement.
On the Americans went over three
ridges. A gunboat poured in heavy
Calling fire from the river, while
SCOTS Battery threw shells over the
charging columns heads into the
Filipino trenches with great preci-
sion.
As the Twenty-second Regiment
swung around to corner the natives
in Guadalupe the Fillipinos emerged
from the deep trenches, whence they
had been pouring a heavy fire on the
advancing men. When the Amer
cans closed in on Guadalupe a party
Of Filipinos stood their ground. Your
correspondent counted eight Fill
pinos who were killed here. The
Americans also took some prisoners
at this point, hut most of lhe natives
escaped to Pasig.
The Twentieth Infantry was The
first regiment to reach Guadalupe
Church.

WASHINGTON, March 10.
when the cats away.
The mice will Pray"

The mice will pray.
Hon. Thomas Bracket Reed had
not been away from Washington
twen,y.four hours, before active agi'
tation was begun by members OF his
party in an effort to prevent his being
reelected Speaker OF the House. This
has become an old story in Washing
ton, although there appears to be
more life in the present movement
than in any one gifts numerous pre-
decessors, 1t is most positively stat
ed by the agitators that the admin
istration wishes Mr.. Reed defeated,
because of the manner in which he
treated the administration measures
in the last Congress, some of which
were entirely hung up and none OF
which went through as originally In
tended, and that ifthere is any show
of defeating him, it will openly throw
lis influence against him. That is a
very big eff" There are lots of men
in his party who would do the very
same thing, except for that if, but
who do not care TO antagonlze him,
unless sure they could beat INN.
There are reasons which cause vete-
ran observers of Congressional mat
tiers TO think that if Mr.. Reed wishes
the Speakership again, nothing can
prevent his getting 1.-THE report
that he will not take it is again re-
vived. Chief among these reasons is
that all the chairmen of important
committees in the last House, among
whom are some of the shrewdest and
most influential men IN public 5te,
will support Mr.. Reeds candidacy,
because, by his election, they will be
sure to get the same places In the
next House. No man in public life
has a stronger personality than MIR.
Reed; that is admitted by his friends
anu enemies alike. He lost POPULAR
ty during the last Congress by get
ting on the unpopular SIDE of every
important matter that came before
that body, and probably destroyed
whatever chance he may have had to
ever become Presidential candidate,
but a much stronger combination
than there is now any signs of will
have to be formed before his DONNA
ton of his party in the House can be
broken.
An official statement prepared at
the War Department gives the total
number of deaths in our army from
MAY l, 1898, to Feb. 2s, 1899, as
5,79l. OF these 329 were killed IN
action, l25 died of wounds, and
5 217 died Of diseases, etc,
Now that the President, the Vice
President and their wives have gone
to Townsville, Ga, as Vie guests of
Senator Hanna, 1t may be said that
the capital of the U. S. has been tenn
porarily removed TO Crackerdom.
How long the Presidential party will
remain IN Dixie will depend upon
public business. Tie War Depart
nent il expecting important. news
from the Philippines, and its nature
may determine the length of the
