WASHINGTON LETTER.
Republicans hopeIessIy Divided In Congress
and Democrats United.

From Our Regular Correspondent
The situation in Washington at this
writing is one calculated to cause dis
satisfaction and uneasiness to the Re-
publican leaders. The party in Con-
press is hopelessly divided and the
members of the House are at variance
with the President who, as is well
known, is by no means conciliatory
nor inclined to compromise on quest
ions where he has made up his mind
or course the tariff, with it's various
ramifcations, Is the chief source of an
xiety. Reciprocity in every form is
being fought by the advocates of ex-
treme protection while the President
is steadfast in his contention that some
reciprocal concessions must be made
to Cuba and some of the Republican
Senator's are convinced that the sal
vation of the party rests in the ratifi-
cation of certain reciprocal treaties now
in the hands of the Committee on For
egn Relations.
The leading committe of the House
has taken a stand for the reduction
of the war revenue taxes which the
Senators say they will defeat. Ger
tain members of the House, realizing
that their reelection depends on the
reduction of those tariff schedules
which are recognized as serving simply
to increase the profits of the trusts, are
threatening to overstep the bounds of
party discipline and inuagurate an at
tact on the Dingley bill, which is far
thest from the wishes of the party lead
given notice that they will do all in
their power to defeat the Hanna-Frye
ship subsidy bill which the president
of the Senate is determined to pass;
the House Committee on Finance Is at
a loss to frame a bill which will meet
the demands of the Representatives and
at the same time will cause no offense
to the capitalists and last, but by no
means least, the leaders fear that there
will be no possibility of passing an
isthmian canal bill, which they appre-
.ciate is dear TO the hearts of the people.
n On the other hand the Democrats are
showing a greater inclination to work
together than has been the case for
number Of years. Having set aside
for consideration at some distant date
the question of financial legislation,
they have determined upon a policy
most annoying to the Republicans and
most effective in the hands of clever
minority. The are standing together
as a body, watchful, alert ready to ex-
pose the flaws in every Republican
measure and to call attention to the
Inconsistency that exists between Re
publican party platforms and cam
paign pledges and Republican perform
ance.

EXHIBIT FROM SHEBA.
Samples from The Old Mine Indicate Its Rich
ness.

An exhibit which was yesterday
made in the offices of the Sheba Mining
Company, whose properties are located
in Humboldt county, New, cannot but
inspire confidence in it's ultimate pro-
ductiveness, the collection of ores that
had been brought down from camp af-
fording a most instructive lesson on it's
richness, says the Salt Lake Tribune.
with wire silver with fifiecks of free
gold that proclaim how easy it was for
the former owners to raise and market
from one of the enormous chambers
ores of the value Of about $2,500000.
Ruby silver was abundant in other
samples, while the whole commends

Gov. Wells, Chief Justice Bartch, j. w.

the higher grades the management re-
ports about two feet in the upper tun-
mel at this time, this having followed
streak on which work was begun
when the new company acquired con-
troll, while an average from it shows
the presence of 39S ounces of silver and
$19 20 gold per ton. In addition to this
the management is exhibiting samples
taken from an enormous tonnage of
perfect milling ore and that, with an
efficient plant, should begin to supply
the means with which to Systematically
open up and reclaim the bonanza, but
a bare fraction of which has ever been
explored. To hasten the compaign the
company has increased it's force to ten
men and an active production should
begin the present season. Certainly
preesnt conditions justify the expecta-
ton.

both conventions seem to be in favor
of the general principles of socialism
as means of industrial reforms.
The restaurant employees have prac-
tically refused to indorse a new po-
litical party.
President Boyce opened the con-
ference by stating it's purposes and
offering some suggestions. Presi-
dent Mcdonald followed in a similar
vein. Among the speakers for and
against socialism were these: From
the Western Labor union, T. F. Hur-
ley, Harry HaZelton, F. c. Ives, Chas.
Meteger, G. R. Larson, j. D. Cole, H.
c. Hughes, l. H. Field, Casper Wright
and Clarence Smith. From the West
ern Federation of Miners, W. ]. Da-
wilson, ]. D. Galloway. B. Lindsay
and w. H. Bond.
The opponents of the socialist par
ty program have a substitute plan
which they will present and which
seems to be favorably received. This
is to adopt resolutions commenda-
tory of socialism, without declaring
for a political party. This will place
all who SO desire on record for So
cialism, and it is claimed will give
free vent to the general feeling any
of the delegates may have for this
reform measure.

STRIKES ARE UNKNOWN.
Interesting Facts About Conditions in
New Zealand.


The story which follows may sound
like fairy tale TO those who recall
the great strikes in this country in
the past few years, but it was re-
lated and is voucned for by an Eng
lishman who is widely known and
who is a master of important labor
and government questions:
Miners in one of the largest gold
mines in New Zealand asked not long
ago for an advance in wages of a
shilling a day; the mine owners pre-
scented their side of the matter to the
compulsory court of arbitration and
asked that the wages of the men be
reduced by shilling a day. A de-
cision was rendered in favor of the
owners, giving them the right to re-
duce the mems wages. The right
was not enforced, because the own
ers wished to remain on good terms
with the men, although they accept
ed the decision of the judge as final,
according to the law of the country. "
w. Cowper Robson, finely edu-
Gated, keen young Englishman,
fresh from New Zealand, was at the
Thornton Saturday and just previ-
GUS to his departure with Mrs. Robi-
son for Chicago, sat down and re-
lated the unique story of New Zea-
land, modestly refraining from men
tioning the part he, himself, has
-,lo in Inun1nnnonnt nf
eminent which seems almost ideal.
About ten years ago." he began
the labor party took charge of affairs
in New Zealand, and since then they
have enacted progressive legislation
of the most advanced description
New Zealand was one of the first col
onies of the British empire to get
free from capitalistic control and fol
the first time in history a truly demo
cratic government was formed. The
citizens were fortunate in having
with them at the time the party OBJ
socialist, who is almost entirely re
sponsible for the advanced legisla
ton, and was the first minister Of la
Dor in the world.
Probably the greatest thing which
has been established is the compul
sorry arbitration system. There are
10 strikes. If there is a dispute the
men state their case to the arbitra
ion court, while the work goes on a:
usual. The judge sets a day for {
hearing; there are no lawyers; thu
masters present their own case. Thu
Judge makes his decision, which il
final. In this way almost hundred
serious labor disputes have been set
ed, and every decision has been &C
, cepted by those interested. A tria
of the system is being made IN othe
Australian colonies and it will
; doubtless soon be adopted by them.
Here Mr.. Robson narrated the stor
of the gold mine workers.

RELICS OF STONE AGE,
Wonderful Discovery Alleged to Have
Been Made in the North


Tacoma, May 30.-While working
in William sound, Professor Leeds
and party of natives discovered a
large cave in which they found IA
wooden canoes, each containing a
body.
Stone implements were found be-
side the bodies, and stone slabs COW
cred the canoes, evidently indicating
that the bodies had been placed
there during the stone age.
The find proved as mysterious to
the natives as to Professor Leeds
Their tribe has inhabited the shores
of PrinceWilliam sound for centuries
yet they have never heard of the
cave nor the people inferred there.
Professor Leeds did not disturb
the bodies and carefully marked the
location. An expedition is being
organized by Captain Storey of the
Alaska Packers association, to thor
oughly explore the cavern.

The Typographical Journal says,
editorially, "The cost of living among

investigated? Why not have an in
vestigation of Carnegie, Rockefeller
Morgan, Schwab and the other great
employers of labor? Such data il
given publicity, would raise such a
Juror that the wage earners employed
by these men would have the sym
pathv of the public when next they
asked for an increase in wages Of
10 cents per day. BY all means let us
investigate what the employing
classes expend for their living.

There is a fine book written on
this subject by an american. 1t is
called "A Country Without Strikes,
who has done more than any other
man, save Reeves, to promulgate the
doctrine of compulsory arbitration.
1t is a great book, and like his
Wealth VS.. Commonwealth should
be read by everyone"
Mr.. Robson told of other radical
steps which were taken by the New
Zealand people, speaking most enter
tainingly of all of them. He said
they had altered the whole system
of taxation, abolishing the general
property tax and establishing the
land and income tax, the latter so
graduated that very small incomes
were not taxed, while the big income
not only paid more but more in pro-
portion than the smaller one. There
is an absentee tax on all land owners
who live away from the colony;
there is an old age pension for those
over 65, men or women, of shilling
day, which Mr.. Robson says is suf-
ficient on account of the cheapness of
bread and meat; there is government
ownership of railways, telegraph and
telephone systems. The ten years
of progressive labor legislation has
left the country extremely prosper
Gus, there being a surplus of revenue
over expenditure of 100000, which
is spent on public works.
Another remarkable thing mention
eu was the TACT that the most demo
cratic government in, the world was
one of the most loyal of the crown
colonies, and Richard ]. Sedden,
once a gold miner, now a member OF
the privy council and the most noted
premier of any English colony went
to South Africa with the last con
tingent of New Zealand troops. and
is now on his way to London to at
tend the coronation.
Mr. and Mrs Robson are also go
ing to London for the coronation
ceremonies. but the political organ
izer for the liberal and labor party
says that he will return soon after
ward to New Zealand, or he will be
taxed as an absentee land owner
