UNION LABOR AT A
PREMIUM IN SPOKANE
The Demand is So Great for Spring Work That in
Some Instances the Unions Are Unable
to Meet 1t.

Never in the history of Spokane has
there been a greater demand for
nnion labor than at the present time.
1t was stated today at Central Labor
hall that nearly all who were idle
during the winter have secured en-
ployment for the spring and summer
and in many instances the unions
have not been able to meet the de-
mand Of employers.
This is especially true of the build
ing laborers' union, which Is consid-
cred one of the strongest labor Or

bers of that body have gone to work.
The demand is increasing.

GLADSTONE'S ORATORY.
One Critic Ltkens 1t to the Rushing
OF Waters In a Tempest.

One Critic Likens 1t to the Rushing
of Waters In a Tempest.
Gladstone was a great financier and
perhaps the very greatest expositor Of
finance who ever lived. He had a
magical influence over masses Of men
and power Of words the effect Of
which was more like that Of huge
masses Of water in tempest than any
thing else. His Midlothian speeches
made one think less of river coming
down than Of the sea coming up. His
skill in constructing difficult measure
was not even approached by any man
of his time and perhaps was never ex-
ceeded by any man at any time.
These and many other merits we
must freely allow him, but when the
final estimate of him Is made many
traits must be introduced and not least
his extraordinary power of believing
precisely what he wished to believe
He had tender conscience, but, save
only where finance was concerned, he
had that conscience thoroughly under
command. II it showed the slightest
recalcitrancy. his will was always
ready to say, "Just you dare"
And yet when all has been said for
and against him there can be no doubt
that he will remain the most notable
Englishman Of his genera tomas much
out Of place among the Liberals as
Disraeli was among the Conservatives,
but, like him, head and shoulders
above all his rivals and as much su-
perior to Disraeli himself in most Of
the higher arts Of craftsmanship as
that immensely clever child Of Israel
was superior to him in all it's secondary
arts.

The seven Golden Cities,

The "Sevei Golden Cities" one Of
the most popular legends of the latter
part of the dark ages. were said to be
situated on an island west of the At
rican coast. The island is represented
as Astounding in gold, with magnificent
houses and temples, "the high towers
of which shone at a great distance"
The legend also relates that at the
time Of the conquest of Spain and Por-
tugal by the Moors, when the inhabit-
ants fed in every direction to escape
slavery, seven bishops, followed by a
great number Of people, took to ships
and put boldly out on the high seas.
After tossing about for some time they
landed ON an unknown island, the ia
NOUS spot which in after years became
the seat Of the "Seven Golden Cities"
"Fhis island" Heylyn says, twas ex-
actly in midocean." After all had
landed safely the wise old bishops
burned the ships to prevent their fol-
lowers from deserving and founded the
cities which have become so famous In
song and story. This mysterious is
land was often sought by the early
navigators- Those who went in search
Of it and never returned were popular
ly believed to have been detained by
Its inha bitants.
