TIE c.4NAERY COMBINE.

AS result of the cannery COM
bine on the lower Columbia, only
four of Astoria's ID canneries will
be operated next season, Wages
have been cut down and the price
of canned salmon has been put up.
Many of Astoria's most enterpris-
ing business men have been forced
to leave the city by the sea and
seek new locations. Hundreds OF
working people have been thrown
out Of employment and the sitna-
ton has become SO grave that, ac-
cording to on Astoria correspond
ent of the 0regonian, the combine
is referred TO there as a boa con-
strictor ready to crush and swallow
every thing in sight. A. B. Ham
mond, of the A. G. R. r. is credited
with being the promoter of the
combine and J. Pierpont Morgan,
of New York, is said to be one Of
the heaviest stockholders. The
combine may work hardship on
the business men and working peo-
pie Of Astoria, the fishermen along
the river and the public generally
by bringing about low priced labor
and high priced canned salmon but
these people should remember that
Messrs. Hammond and Morgan
have some rights in the matter and
that their rights must be respect
ed though the heavens fall, though
fishermen famish and Astoria be-
comes a deserted village. The
combine is not unreasonable in its
demands. Allit wants is the meat
of the salmon; the fishermen anc
iaborers and business men Of Asto'
ria may have the smell from thu
cannerries and the slime from thu
fish, and welcome, and they shoulc
be satisfied with that. 1t is want
ing too much that makes the mid
die and lowe classes dissatisfied
with their present highly prosper
ous condition.

Henry Watterson's statement
concerning the cause Of the recent
troubles in Kentucky which culmi-
mated in the assassination of Will
lam Goeble is, if correct, of suffici-
ent Importance to warrant q rigid
investigation by state or federal
authorities. If it is true that his
murder was brought about, either
directly or indirectly, by the Louis
vile & Nashville r. R. influence,
because as state law-maker Goe-
bic had antagonized that company.
the interests of all that is good de-
mand that the whole matter should
be investigated and laid bare. If
railroad corporations have adopted
the Klu Klux method of shooting
down men who oppose them politi-
cally, it is time for the people TO
know it that the necessary steps
may be taken to forever stop such
lawlessness. Corporate greed has
been responsible for many crimes
and Watterson's statement that il
has at last resorfed to cold. .blooded
murder will be the more readily be-
lieved because Of past criminal acts
Of lesser degree.

A TRAvESTy ON LAW.

Tuesday evening Harry Garretson,
of Dingmans, who claims TO lie a
Fish Warden, saw little Walter Rot
tier fishing i'm the Delaware near
Milford and when the boy came
ashore arrested him for having in
his possession n bass less than nine
inches in length. We understand
that Rottier did not catch the fish
but Tint it was given him by another
boy. He was brought before VIM.
Angle esq, who held him TO bail for
the alleged offense of having the
fish in his possession. The com
plaint was not sworn to and no war.
rant was issued, the whole proceed
ing being of Il highly informal char
acter. The law providing that bass
less than nine inches shall not be
taken may be n proper enactment
and, if enforced on persons old
enough to be presumed tn know that
there is sueh an act might be com.
mended, but to pounce on n child daud
hale him before a justice and place
him under bonds seems like a high
ly ridiculous performance. We sug-
gest that the officians warden post
notices in the river warning the ba-
by bass against the danger of APP
peasing their hunger by taking the
juicy worm on the hooks of little
boys, lest they be placed on exhibit
tion in a magistrates Office and per-
haps of having their bodies preser-
we'd in alcohol to be evidence against
the kids in court. Such zeal simply
brings the law in dIrespute and max
es farce of it. There are numerous,
wilful Violations of the fishing laws
and the Sunday laws made by men
and grown up boys and the Warden
would have his time far better oc-
cupied should he attempt the sup
preston of such fragrant and open
infractions.

The Boer Delegates.

The Boer delegates have been very

the Administration at Washington
had done more for their cnuse than
any other nation II had gone as
far as 10 could go in the offer Of its
good Offices. unless it was anxious TO
involve the country in war with
Great Britain. This course mono Of
the 1abid critics Of they know not
what advocate, neither are theenvoys
quite 50 ridiculous as 20 suggest this
alternative and yet some of their
final utternauces seem TO indicate
that they eypected the people Of this
country i'm some Irregular way TO
transcend the forms Of our own gov
ernment and stop England willy.nil-
ly This is tri fling with great
government, none the less orderly If
it be government of the people
As they go it cannot he said the
envovs have added 60 their cause by
their peculiar advocacy Of it in this
country. They have evidently been
made the dupes Of irresponsible par-
tizans who misled them as to the
kind of n government that OF the
United States was and as to the pos
sibilities of interference outside of
diplomatic pressure-Phila. Press.

THE WASHINGTON LETTER

(Frum Our Regular Correspondent
WAsHINGToN, y. c., JUNE 25, 1900.
President Mckinley is gratifled
hut not at all surprised at the com
mendations he is receiving from all
quarters for lis promptncss in ord.
cripg troops to China to join with
those of otler civilized nations in
protecting the persons and property
of foreigners. Neither this govern
ment nor any European government
considers itself at war with China,
but the Chinese government having
failed to protect foreigners from the
"boxers" the civilized governments
are going to do it themselves. ii
Hung Chang has cabled tu Secretary
Hay, promising to restore peace
and TO see that all foreigners are
protected. and the Chinese Minister
to- the u. S. has received cable
gram saying that all the foreign
ministers at Pekin are safe and
we'll, but all that hasn't stopped
any of the preparations for sending
reinforcement to China from the
Philippines just as qnick rs they
cln be gotten there. The Chinese
Minister insists that there can be m
war between China and the civilized
Laiions, and that his government
has not sanctioned any of the fight
ing. All that he says may be strict.
ly true, but the fact remains that
there has been fighting and that it
is still going on, and TINT one side is
made up of soldiers and marines be-
longing to the civilized nations, and
the other side of Chinese. The
question of the responsibility of the
Chinese government may be deter.
mined later, but the first and fore
most duty of the civilized powers is
to put Il stop to the fighting by whip
ping the Chinese fighters into sub
mission, and President Mckinley in
tends that the u. S. shall do its full
share of that duty.
