Price ofGIass-

Patton'S Monthly, the organ of the
glass trust says: lit is obvious that
the glass trust will be higher this
year than last. This is not owing so
much to advance in wages paid as to
limited production. But why limit
ed production? Because that makes
possible the higher price this year
than last, on top OF an increase Of
about so per cent last year. And sit
is not owing to advance in wages
paid. " This organ is to be commend
ed for its frankness. But the good
sense of consumers is not commended
for neekly consenting to tariff pro-
lection to such manufacturers of from
80 to 100 per cent, "in the interest of
our wolkmen," of course!

DUCK IN STRANGE QUARTERS.
Big Bird Found In a Big Halibut
Caught Recently in sitEka
HarbOr,

The remarkable discovery of a full
grown duck IN the stomach of a hall
but is reported by Capt Kilgore, of the
United States revenue cutter Rush,
now stationed at Sitka. The fish, an Hn-
usually large one, was caught by one
of the quartermasters of the cutter
November Is. In letter to the Seattle
Post-Intelligenc dated November IA,
Capt Kilgore describes the landing of
the fish and the discovery of the bird
as follows:
"It has been the habit of the crew
when the cutter came into the har-
Dor to set troll near the vessel for
halibut, which are found in these wa
ters weighing from so to IS pounds.
When Quartermaster Petersen, an en-
thusiastic fisherman, hauled in his line
yesterday morning he was rewarded
with a fine halibut, weighing ITO
pounds. The landing naturally pro-
duced quite a commotion on board.
But the surprising feature occurred
when the halibut was opened in the
process of distribution to the nesses.
A bluebin duck, as large as mallard.
was found in his stomach in a perfect
state of preservation, its fat bill, feet
and feathers all in place as in life. The
fish, evidently not satisfied with his
meal, feathers not being very digesti-
bic, came along, took the hook, baited
with salt herring, which resulted in his
capture. I have seen thousands of fish
opened, from smelt to sharks, and
knew that sea birds caught fish, but
this is the first instance in my expert
ence when the order was reversed and
a duck was found in a fish

Pursuant to the above d delegate

and one for each 500 votes or major

eral election in 1900. 1t is recon-
mended that the county conventions

be entitled to delegates.

With no thought Of abandoning our
warfare on economic evil nor of low
eEing in the slightest degree the stan
dards OF civic righteousn ess we have
set up, yet ne cannot ignore the fact
that conditions confront US which rem
der new political methods indispensa-
BILE to success.
Possessing the power to haraSS and
Cypress opposing parties, our republi-
can opponents in the last legislature
used it to enact a ballot law which
deprives those parties and the people
who compose them of the right to
nominate and vote for such candidates
as commend themselves to their judg-
ment and to their consciences;z and at
the same time render the ballot Jug
Cling puzzle to every voter who is not
a party slave. By such legiSla i've OPP
pres sion and infamy they evi emily
proposed to insure for the req ublican
party a perpetual lease of power, and
they have succeeded in practically dis
franchiSing nearly one-fourth of the
voters who participated in the last
election since the enactment of that
partisan, unjust and unfair ballot law.
To take measures and decide upon d
line of policy to circumyent these
plots and Vaccinations of our republic
can opponents, we have deemed con-
ference representing the entire mem
bership of our party both prudent and
necessary. We must decide whether
we will go into Il triangular contest,
thus allowing the common enemy to
devide and conquer us in detail and
rendering success impossible next
year or for years to come, or whether
we will plan to continue cooperation
with those who have been our allies
during the last two national contests,
in working for the overthrow OF the
republican denomination and the res
toration and preservation of those
rights and privileges of which that
party has plotted to deprive US.
Various plans have been suggested
by which we can circumYent our adj
versaries and the delegate conference
which we have agreed to cali will I'M
doubtedly be able to decide whether
any of them are advisable, and in that
way we can make our influence most
effective for the promotion of those
principles Of government to which we
are devoted. 1t is earnestly requested
and desired that in each county the
conventions to select delegates to the
coming conference be as largely at
tended as possible and that the fullest
and freest expression as to our future
course be encouraged. to the end that
the conference may be able to crystal
ize the thought and wishes of our en-
tire membership.
