1t will be just retribution II the
criminal attempt OF certain Democrats
in congress to make political issue of
the repression OF crime in the Occur
d'Alenes should recoil upon their own
heads. 1t appears probable that this
question may stir up a lively rumpus
in the Kansas City convention. Sulzer
and Lentx are determined to declare In
favor of murder. arson and dynamit-
ing. The friends OF Gov. Steunenberg
are equally determined that. II there is
any censure Of his course. at least the
reason for it shall be made plain. When
a great party stoops to partnership with
crime as the Democracy has done in
this case, no punishment for it can be
too severe 1t would be a fitting frili
for the Chicago platform to incorporate
in II vote Of sympathy with the Idaho
anarchists.

that has been done would be of doubt
ful value. 1t will be found the first
step in dealing with the great combina-
tions that are called trusts.
The state exercises freely this right
of examination and supervision in other
directions. The test Ii not the nature
Of the business done so much as it is
the need of the public for protection
against injustice or extortion. Banks
are subject to such Official surveillance.
So are insurance companies So are
railroads. SO may any enterprise be
made that touches the common life
closely and that could make it's eondi-
tons unjust or intolerable. First Of all
let the searchlight be turned upon the
inner workings and financing OF the
trusts. This IL practicable and 1t is the
beginning to make. no matter what else
is done. That Is the first point of at

Endorsement Of J.axe Mount.

Ever since Washington has been a state
the attorney general has been from Spo-
kane. First. the Republicans selected w
G. Jones, and then Patrick Henry Win
ston was elected as a Populist. There is
no reason why this rule should be broken
this year. Spokane has a resident who
should receive the Republican nomination
for attorney general this year. and IL so
nominated his election would undoubtedly
follow. Moreover. should he secure the
nomination and subsequent election, he
would I'LL the position with credit to those
who honored him with the Office. That
man Is Judge Wallace Mount. We do
not hastily advocate the selection of any
Individual to position Of honor and
trust. We must feel that he IL not only
worthy the confidence OF his party. but
also that he is competent to fill the Office
that his name n mentioned in connection
with. We feel that there In no man bet
ter qualified for the ONCE OF attorney gen
ersl than wallace Mount. We have known
him for years In private life and as a
judge upon the bench. and have always
found him to be genial gentleman and
an able lawyer. " he he chosen for this
Office his name would add strength to the
Republican ticket In Eastern Washington.

The Attn District

With the repeal Of the British Cot
umbian alien mining law 1t is probable
that there will be renewal Of mining
activity in the Atiin country. For more
than year development work In that
district has been at standstilI, and
there has never been enough prospect
ing done to demonstrate just how rich
the country really is. Under the mis-
taken idea that foreigners were taking
steps to secure all OF the newly discov-
cred riches. the province unwisely de.
termined to pass an exclusion act with
the result that titles were at once
thrown into confusion and newcomers
forced to beat a retreat. Work stop
ped and the country was Immediately
deserted. az was the case in the Cariboo
country years ago. The brains and en-
ergy necessary to the development OF
the new Country were lacking. and
while the~province succeeded In effect
ing rigid exclusion for TIME. the uIti-
mate result was an almost coplete pros
tration of the mining industry through
out the Atlin district.
With the repeal Of the law many OF
the first prospectors will return and
those who acquired claims at the time
OF the first rush will no doubt take
steps to see that they are developed.
Many locations have been made IN diff
ferent creeks. but there has never been
a district so much talked about which
has had SO little effective work done
within its borders and concerning the
richness Of which so little Of definite
nature Is known The original discov-
cries were promising and there seemed
warrant for believing that ground had
been uncovered which would produce
Handsomely for years to come. Had the
country been left open 10 those who
who would have followed the original
iocators. by this time the dis.rics would
probably have been quite extensively
developed and its actual richness posi-
lively known.
No doubt "a good deal OF work win
now be picked up where it was dropped
when the alien act went into efiact.
There are many who have faith in the
country and desire to engage IN ex-
tensive mining operations l. the laws
permit of It, While the discoveries have
not been OF the fabulous character of
those Of the Kiondike, they promise
well. and there are none Of the climatic
difficulties of the Far North to contend
with. 1t Is believed that the country
about Atlin can be made to pay by
hydraulic operations and thsre are
many who have been waiting for the
repeal OF the law to begin such work
Now that enterprising people are to be
allowed to enter the country and eet
some returns for their labor. a marked
change win probably come over IT,
