and attendant expense and sell them

are driving the Eng,ishman out of his
own market?
And when a sheer Is pointed at what
is termed the academic phrase of "Chi-
nese WALL" because in spite Of the al
legged wall we have conquered the for.
eign market for our goods, 1t creates
a desire for information as to the real
effect of these Chinese walls. 1t Is well
known that there was strictly Chi
nese WALL around the city of Pekin.
1t is a matter of recent history that
Americans entered Pekin against the
desire of the inhabitants. 1t was an
American who first scaled the wall
He entered and carried in his hand
the American flag. Commenting on
this incident in the spirit of Re-
publican convention. it would be
claimed that the Chinese wall had
been scaled and an American had en-
tered the city, and that, therefore, the
wall was not an obstacle, but rather
because of the wall the valiant young
American rose to fame he might not
otherwise have achieved. If there had
been no wall it could not have been
scaled. Therefore, it was clearly the
Chinese wall that created the valor Of
the American sailor lad 1t is strange

Vacation does not mean vacancy
and is ever the more effective for a
thin stratum of work running through
it. A notable example Of vacation
courses and summer classes is the free
normal school at Manila, which held
its preliminary term last May. Its
purpose is to teach modern methods Of
instruction to the native school teach
ers, who without exception, wish to
prepare themselves to educate theiI
race. Forty-five resident American
teachers, under the direction of DR.
David Barrows of California, consti-
tuted the faculty, and by the middle
Of the first week over six hundred Fill.
ipino men and women teachers, mostly
of mature age, had gathered from the
various islands. One American, In
charge of Zambales Province, Captain
O'Neill, learning that twenty teachers
of his district could not reach Manila
for lack of funds, generously sent them
thither at his OWE expense. For the
month in which the school was open
thirty-three classes were held daily, ir
which the attendance averaged ninety
eight per cent. Surely the American
occupation of the Philippine Islands
presents, even to the warmest oppon
ent of the movement, some bright
sides.

"srIR CONTRACTORS UP.r

During the horse show week Mayor
Johnson drove out of his way several
times on his way to and from the race
track to see what was being done in
the parks, says the Cleveland World
The result of all this was that he held
a lengthy conference with Director
of Public Works Salem yesterday rel
alive to park improvements that are
under way.
Charley" said he, there seems to
be an immense lot of unfinished work
in the parks and along the boulevards

torn up, and l did not see any work 60

everything is moving along all right.

THAT TARIFF WALL.

When Republicans gather for the
purpose of pointing with pride" there
must be pronouncement favoring the
continuance Of the scheme of protec-
ton of our manufacturers. In the
gathering of Ohio Republicans this
feature was not lacking. And now the
organs rise to demonstration of the
great benefits flowing from the Repub-
lican policy of protecting the home
market. The convention declared in
favor of tariff schedules which will
protect American labor against the
low wages paid foreign labor" And
the faithful organ points to the steady
increase of our exports of manufac-
tured goods as evidence of the value
of the tariff wall. 1t Is to protect the
laborers of this country against the
low wages paid abroad.
Now If this is so simple thing why
will not some of these organs explain
in what manner tariff against i'm
ports. of iron and steel can benefit the
American laborer while we are con-
stantly adding to the amount Of our
exports of these commodities? 1t is
not to be assumed that foreigners buy
our manufactured products because
they are higher in cost than those
made by the foreign labor to which
lower wages are paid. That is too pal
pable an absurdity even for Repub-
lican organ. If we can ship our prod
ucts to England and sell them, freight
paid, in competition with goods man.
ufactured by English labor working
for less wage, what kind of a tariff
is needed to make 1t impossible for the
English manufacturer to ship his prod
ucts to this country, pay the freight

ORGANIZED CAPITAL-ORGANIZ
LABOR,

The following is late daily press
dispatch from New York:
Stockholders of the Pennsylvania
Coal company were notified today OF
an extra dividend of 40 1-5 per cent
making total of sos 1-2 per cent re-
ceived by them since the requirement
of the company by J. P. Morgan & Co.
for the Erie railroad"
Under precisely the same date was
a dispatch from the same place an
nouncing that many employers were
resolved upon a war of determination
against trades unionism" or labor
organizations. This action being the
result of the strike of the organized
machinists of the country for nine;
hour day without change of pay. II
organized labor deserves extermina-
ton for demanding the mild conces-
sion noted what sort OF fate does
the above mentioned coal trust de-
serve, is a naughty question that will
occur to an occasional naughty citi-
zen, who, IL he voices the question
will be accused of trying to "stir w
strife" to create discomfort" and
disturb the present prosperous and
satisfactory business situation. If or
ganized labor would publicly declare
a war of determination against trusts
and proceed to carry on the war there
would be a deal more said about II
than about the same declaration by
employers, and it would not be com
pllmentary to organized labor, either

Last week we rebuked a certain
Judge Smith of Los Angeles for having
sentenced a BOY to fifteen years i'm
prisonment for stealing goods valued
ut SO. 1t was the boys first offense.
The same Judge has since fined tho
boys lawyer $50 for contempt of court,
The contempt being that the lawyer
told the judge, outside the courtroom,
that there was no foundation for GER
tain remarks made by him on the
bench. The statutory law distinctly
says that no act or word spoken shall
be construed as contempt of court, un-
less committed in the immediate pres
once Of the court, and in such a man
ner as to interfere with its proceed
ings. We have not heard that that
law has been repealed or declared I'M

Inconsistencies In Drcss-SOme OF the

woMAN's INCONSISTENCY.

"For inconsistency in dress, COM
mend me to women" said man on
street car during one of Fridays
showers. He was looking at a girl on
the street who had her long-tailed
gown tucked snugly around her, reveal
ing the "frillies" of her white cambria
petticoats. No doubt when the young
woman started out these lace-trimmed
fiounces were crisp things of beauty;
but the floods had descended mean
while, and now they were nothing less
than sloppy-a disagreeable but ex-
pressive word.
The white skirt has really been quite
conspicuous all during our modern del
uge. There were those who thought
that the sex had so progressed that the
wardrobe of even the humblest member
of it boosted rainy-day skirt; but this
apparently is not SO, and the long
skirt and the white skirt have helped
to absorb the water from the pave
ments.
A Sight In Cool Weather.
On one of the coolest of the damp,
raw days of last week daring lady,
who had not the fear Of pneumonia
within her, apparently, appeared in the

with a yoke of lace so thin that at
little distance she had the startling eff
feet of appearing decollete at high
in0
at her in surprise, and woman, snug
gled in fur boa, regarded her re-
proachfully. But the cause Of these
glances felt no perturbation, for she
was secure in the fact that the calen-
dar was with her, even If the thermom-
eter wasn't.

Much Interest TAKEN in the Fine De-

Be VERY Valuable,

Dillon, May 11.-Charles Metzel,
the Well known rancher from the
Ruby valley last evening, and he says
that the coal deposits on the upper part
of that valley are attracting consider
able attention at present.
The impression is fast gaining ground
on the valley that the Northern Pacific
intends to extend it's Ruby valley line
eventually to these coal fields. AS a
rule, as far as developed, the veins are
not very thick but the quality !: most
excellent. Mr.. Metzel said last evening
that Fritz Walker, who has been the
most persistent of the coal miners inn
that section, has recently uncovered the
thickest vein yet found in that section,
near the mouth of Cottonwood creek,
and it is currently reported that a COM
pany of Virginia City men have been
organized to develop the deposit most
thoroughly and prove it's extent and
worth.

last evening to set fire to the Chinese
laundry on the corner of Sebree and

saturated with kerosene. About ten
ounces of powder was wrapped in a
Japanese napkin and placed in a pile
of sacks and other infiammable matter
\ slow match was attached to the pow
der The Chinese proprietor saw the
glow of the match and detected the
odor of kerosene in time to snatch the
match away from the powder before
the explosion occurred. 1t is thought to
be the work of some rival "Chink" in
the laundry business.

Dillon. May 11.-Up to the present

a large bears track. Last week he had
killed one member of bruins family. and
it is known that he had been hunting
for another one which he had seen.
The description of the missing man is
as follows: About six feet tall dark
complexion, blue eyes. reddish brown
muStache and about two weeks growth
of beard. He is about 80 years old. and
