NOT RIPE FOR SLAVERY.

The Schenectady boycott is a failure The
adverse action of various labor unions at Schen-
ectady doubtless sets the seal upon its fate. 1t
seemed certain from the outset that it must fail
1t was so monstrously ill-cOnceived, so arbitrary
and tyrannical, that reason forbade belief that
it could succeed 1t has failed completely at the
very first touch of trial, and has reacted
strongly against its authOrs-as they richly de
served it should. 1t was treated with contempt
Lot only by the general public, but by the vast
majority of trade union workingmen them
selves, and the Trades Assembly which ordered
it has become an object of derision, contempt
and bitter denuncation, even at the hands of
organized labor.
That is as it should be, and as it should be for
the sake of organized labor as well as Of the
greater mass of non-union labor and the SUI
preme interests of the general public. No labor
union can afford TO identify itself or to have
organized labor generally identified, with an at
tempt to re-establish the slave pen and to re
enact the Fugitive Slave law. Half a century
ago millions Of American citizens revolted
against the proposal that they should be
dragooned into serving as slave catchers for re-
turning escaped bOndsmen to their masters.
They would no less strenuously revolt against
being dragooned into forcing free citizens into
joining societies which they do not wish TO join
as a sine qua non of their being permitted to
earn an honest living.
The boycott has failed. But it will not and
should not be forgotten. 1t should be perpet-
uaIly remembered as an example and a warn
ing. The president of the Trades Assembly
which ordered it, who is regarded as personally
responsible for it, is reported TO have said that
It has failed because the time is not ripe for
such a step" In that he spoke more truly than
he meant The time is not ripe, and it never
will be ripe. for the re-establishment of slavery
in the United States OF America. This foolish
and wicked attempt at such reestablishment
will be remembered, and the memory OF it will
cause American workingmen the more vigilant-
" and jealousy to guard the freedom which Is
their bfrthright.

4 SLIGHT IyAccURACY CORRECTED.

The consistency of The Tribunes attitude
toward the system of triple control in Samoa
is called into question by The New-York sun"
which says:
Our recollection is that when The Sun" was
opposing the ratification OF the Berlin Treaty.
in January and February of 1900 and pointing
cut to the Senate and the country the dangerous
and II conceived character Of the proposed trip
artite agreement, The Tribune was not attack
ing OF denouncing the treaty, but was. the
contrary. attacking and denouncing for
lacking that same treaty.
Assuming that The Sun" means 1890 and
NOT 1900 as the year in which the Treaty of
Berlin relating TO Samoa was ratified. it may
he said that its recollection of The Tribune's
attitude toward that treaty is not altogether
incorrect 1t is desirable, however. to bear in
mind the essential distinction between the
system Of tripartite control" Of which we
spoke the other day and the Treaty of Berlin
Of which The sun" speaks. 1t is one thing to
have disapproved the tripartite system which
was established long before the Treaty of Ber-
lin was negotiated, and it is another and quite
different thing to have approved the treaty as
a means OF modifying that system and bringing
il into less Objectionable shape The tri-
dominium was imposed upon Samoa in an ex-
IRENE and offensive form in 1857 and 1883,
when Mr.. Cleveland was President and Mr.
Bayard WIS Secretary Of State What The
Tribune thought Of its practical workings was
emphatically set forth in our columns many
times: for example, speaking of Germany, on
November 3D. 1887:
No pirate could have proceeded with greater
defiance OF law and the principles supposed IN
govern enlightened and Christian governments.
and next in shamelessness 70 the rapa ciors and
constituencies action of the Germans is the
course OF the American and British govern
ments in condoning these outrages
Again, little more than a year later on
December y. 1885, The Tribune declared that
The Samoan intrigues have disgraced the
three foreign States which have participated
lin them" That was The Tribune's opinion of
the practical workings OF the tripartite control
IN Samoa, and Of the negotiations at Washing
TOD in which the United States COMPROMISED
itself into recognition Of that system. It was
IN June 1889, that the succeeding Republican
administration Of President Harrison fool, nm
me unhappy middle where Mr. Bayard had
dropped 1t in despair, and strove TO make the
best Of the bad job thus bequeathed to it by
negotiating treaty securing for this country

Within a time not long past amusement
managers in Manhattan were strangely re-
miss in printing much needed information in
their advertisements in the daily newspapers.
Even then the visitors 10 New-Nork who We're
not familiar with the entertainment districts OF
the metropolis were numerous. But the man
ayers in many instances were so bent upon
economy in advertising that they re3rained
from mentioning In their announcements the
streets and avenues I'm which their playhouses
were situated.
Gratifying progress has since been made. In
nearly all Of the current advertisements Of
plays operas and concerts. the locations OF the
theatres and halls are duly set forth. Another
step forward has been welcomed. In the former
benighted period few of the men who presented
popular artists took the trouble 10 enlighten
the public as TO the time when the curtains
would rise Now the columns of the press usu-
ally contain the figures which tell the devotees
OF dramatic art and the votaries OF melody at
what moment they should be in their seats II
they are intent upon missing no fraction Of
their enjoyment.
One more Improvement IN the advertisements
of the play, the concert or the lecture would

prices for every part Of the auditorium. The
figures would not take great deal Of space

A CITY or Dreadful NIGHT.

Paris has often been called the City Of Light.
with reference sometimes TO its social. intel
lectual and artistic brillancy. and sometimes TO
the abundance Of its physical illumination. In
both respects it has good title to the distinc-
tion, though there are others which might also
lay claim thereto. Physically Paris is unques-
tionably well lighted. Gas and electricity are
employed without stint Buildings are radiant
and the spacious avenues and boulevards scarce
Iy know the difference between day and night
But New-York, too-meaning now the chief
parts Of the island Of Manhattan-is also city
Of light. Electric arcs blaze profusely on all of
the great thoroughfares The towering build
ings habitualy look almost as though illumi-
mated for some festal occasion. The trolley
cars, with all their faults, are abundantly
lighted, while the new electric cars on the ele
waited railroads are simply dazzling In the efful-
gence of their numerous incandescent films
Time was when it was sadly and maddennely
otherwise. But there is little room for com
plant Of scanty lighting save in isolated cases.
When, however, one crosses the scintillatng
arch of the Brooklyn Bridge to the second bor-
ough of this imperial city, how great and dis
tressing is the contrast! Scarcely a street is
thoroughly lighted while many important ones
are immersed in almost Zimmerman gloom Elec
trio arcs are too few and far apart, while many
Of the gas lamps go unlighted night after night
and the poor quality of gas or some other cir
cumstance enables many OF those that are
lighted to do little more than to make the
darkness visible. AS for the cars, alack and
alas! The trolley cars have electric lamps but
they are few in number and the current is so
weak that the hlaments often merely glow in
stead Of shining brilliantly In the majority
Of cases on some of the most important lines
it is injudicous and often practically mpossi-
bic to read at night On the elevated roads
the case is even worse. On most OF the cars
smoky oil lamps merely reveal rather than dis
pei the gloom. On those which are euuiDped
with electricity there are not half so MANY
lamps as there should be; such lamps as there
are do little more than glow like rudy glow
worms, and it is an hourly occurrence for all
to be suddenly extinguished and the train TO
be left entirely dark for run OF several blocks

ough, at night, there might we'll be the inscrip-

tricity was begun long before there was any
sign of it in Manhattan. But the roads in Man
haitian are now nearly all provided with an
almost ideal service. while those in Brooklyn
actually seem further from it than they were
year or two ago. The people of Brooklyn are
not doors of evil that they should love dark
ness rather than light. They arc entitled TO
and are worthy of a full measure of illumina-
ton and they should have it, that their Dor
ough may share in the distinction of being, as
well as the French capital, City of Light. in
stead of, as too much at present, a City of
Dreadful Night.

HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.
Temporary Organization Effected-Urgent Call
For Better Attendance.

Pursuant to a notice given in the news
papers OF North Yakima a representa-
tive body of the fruit growers of Yaki-
ma county met on Saturday, May 10, at
o'clock p. M, over the furniture store
of Lombard & Horsley and organized a
temporary horticultural society. W. l..
Wright was elected president and J. NJ
Brown, secretary. Owing to not having
a full turn out of the fruit growers of the
county there was only temporary or
ganization perfected. An adjournment
was taken to meet again on Saturday,
May "a, at o'clock p. M, at the court
house in North Yakima at which time
we hope and urge that every fruit grow
er in Yakima county will be present
and let us perfect permanent organiza-
ton OF some kind whether it be hort
icultural society, fruit growers union
or something else.
The time is. already here that the fruit
growers must do something to protect
and further interest in order that we
may make fruit growing profitable. We
have great many matters to look after
in order to make fruit growing a prof.
table business and we are of the opinion
that if we do not organize in some way
that fruit growing in Yakima county will
be a failure, owing partly to the fact
that great manv of the orchardists are
very careless in the matter of spraying.
A great many orchardists, we notice,
consider the matter OF spraying of no
great importance, and only spray as a
matter of compulsion. 1t is our belief
that it should be the duty of the organi-
zation to assist the fruit inspector in
enforcing the law, and if the present
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1902-05-13

law is insufficient in compelling orchard
lists to properly spray and care for their
orchards, that we see to it that a proper
law be enacted by the next legislature.
A law, in our opinion, cannot be too
stringent. AS a matter of fact we, as
fruit growers, should be sufficiently
interested in our own welfare regarding
fruit culture that we would protect our
own interests without being compelled
to by law, but one of our greatest trou.
bles lies in the fact that there are a
great many farmers who have small
orchards in connection with other
branches of farming and neglect them.
Relative to keeping them cleansed from
fruit pests, they are class of fruit
growers, generally speaking, that are
the most careless about properly spray
ing, and do not depend on growing fruit
for profit. We find that it is not of
much use for one to spray unless they
all spray. Now, brother fruit growers,
come out to our next meeting and let us
discuss these matters if we do nothing
more. Remember the date-Saturday,
May Oath, at 2 o'clock p. M, at the
county court house.

Commercial Club Takes Steps to Meet With
Promoters Requirements.

A large and representative meeting of
the Commercial club was held Saturday
evening to meet J. F. Mcknight and
his engineer, +. p. Weymouth of Spo-
kane, and to listen to and take action on
the proposition of Mr.. Mcknight to
construct railway line from this city
through the Mckee and Parker Bottom
districts into the Sunnyside country.
Edward Whitson in short speech
introduced the subject, and stated in
the course of his remarks that other
stations We're making efforts to corral
the Sunnyside traffic, and in his opinion
the time was ripe for North Yakima to
make extraordinary effort, if need be, to
divert the traffic of the Sunnyside coun-
try to this city. He then introduced
Mr.. Mcknight, who stated that he came
here very much of pessimist regarding
the proposed railway, but after visiting
the districts through which the line will
run if constructed, and noting the ex-
traordinary productiveness of the land,
and the feasibility of the route, he had
changed his mind and considered the
proposition would eventually be paying
investment. He further stated that
should the line be constructed to Sunny
side it was not the intention of those he
represented to be content with the one
line, but it was proposed to also tap the
Ahtanum and Natchez valleys. He
stated that he and Engineer Weymouth
had been pretty thoi oughly over the
ground and the preliminary routethosen
seemed in every way feasible, with no
serious difficulties of construction to
encounter. His company would be pre-
pared to put in either a steam or electric
line as the people should elect, under
the conditions he had to offer, to-wit:
II by the LIST of July, 1902, the people
would guarantee to build a suitable
bridge across the Yakima, donate right
of way in the city and along the entire
route of the proposed line, donate ter
minal grounds in the city, and secure
from the producers along the line of
road signed contracts to ship over the
proposed line Is, 600 tons of freight the
first year, then by the first OF July, 1908,
Mr.. Mcknight guaranteed to have a
steam line completed and in operation !;
or, if contracts to ship 1000 tons could
be secured, an electric line would be
built.
There was but very little discussion of
the project, and motion to take up Mr..
McNaught's proposition SO far as the
club could do, prevailed, and the chair
appointed committee OF five, composed
of Messrs. Edward Whitson, w. L.
Steinweg, George Donald, O. A. Fechter
and Miles Cannon to take the matter in
charge with power to appoint SUBJ
committees. The committee will 60 to
work at once, and in a short time the
public will know whether or not the
new road scheme as proposed by Mr..
Mcknight will go through.

SCHOOL ELECTION.
A Total OF 1863 Votes Cast Last Saturday
Little Interest.

the vote. A total of 1853 votes were cast
for the Office of three-year-term school
director, 16O for the one-year-term and

taken in the matter by the politicians
who were dead anxious to see certain
