The Chicago Tribune's Testimony.

The Chicago Tribune's Testimony.
That times are getting duh every sen
sible man knows; that thousands of Ia
borers are without employment is also
true. Nevertheless Republican spell
binders and editors go on asserting that
times are so prosperous that every man
who wants work can get it. Once in
awhile, however, a Republican editor
blurts out part of the truth. Here is
an excerpt from an elaborate editorial
in the Chicago Tribune, a Republican
organ:
When country is entering ON a good
times era, when consumption outruns pro-
duction, when manufacturers are working
their plants up to the limit and are COM
peting SO warmly for labor that few men
are idle as was the case in the United
States three or four years ago, strike
often is economic wisdom. When the
conditions are reversed, as they are now.
a strike is economic folly. For if any
man gives up his job there are other men
who are eager to take it at the wages
he refused.
There is less work doing in this country
than four years ago, but by reason of
heavy immigration and natural increase
tueIe are more peopie " 10 Liz Si4itlel
amount of work. That means less labor
on the average for each of them. 1t
means that the man who leaves the life
raft of a job because he thinks he is en-
titled to better pay may drown before he
gets another
1t is impossible to say how many able
bodied men are out of work. but the num-
Der is large. They come from iron mills
which are closed and from railroads
which are cutting down their forces No
tice has been given that the Pullman
shops at Chicago will be closed soon be-
cause the railroads are ordering few cars.
Six thousand men will be thrown out of
work The packers have had but little
trouble in getting all the unskilled labor
they needed. They had but to say they
wanted it.

Mr. Bahcock's words, but we have given
the idea he conveyed when he surveyed
the field in which the prosperous farmers
had given his party a victory in spite of
Democratic management had been too
stupid to take advantage of that situation
it would have deserved severer castiga-
ton than even the Chicago Chronicle
could administer.
And we may properly add in conclusion
that no possible array of official figures
on the cost of living will offset actual
knowledge gained by daily experience for
a number of years.

Sailors Fiaht Chinese Labor.

BY those who take interest in such
when the last Chinese exclusion bill
was before the house l secured the
adoption of several amendments MAX
ing the bill more thoroughly exclusive
of every species of Chinese labor to
prevent their competition with Ameri-
can labor. Among these amendments
was one which prevented American
shipowners from employing Chinese
sailors. The bill as it passed the house
was what the laborng classes wanted
The senate passed a much milder bill,
more favorable to the Chinese When
the conference committee met | tried
to force this anti-Chinese sailor clause
back into the bill The committee was
Republican in the ratio of two to one,
and under the leadership of the Repub-
lican Senator Platt of Connecticut it
refused to replace the aforesaid clause
in the bill. The news from San Fran
cisco shows that | was right in my
contention
The Pacific Mail steamer Siberia re-
Gently brought to San Francisco 270
coolies to be used in manning the new
steamer AIanchuria. These coolies were
brought from Hongkong under con
tract They are now on the Manchu-
ria, which is engaged in making its
first trip to Asia The attorney general
has held in two recent cases that this
is lawful because there was no actual
landing on American soil; that the COO
lies were transferred from the deck of
one vessel to the deck of another in the
harbor. How the attorney general can
escape the fact that the United States
has unquestioned Jurisdiction inside
the three mile limit is past my compre-
tension He admits that the exclusion
law protects the longshoreman on the
dock, but decides that it does not pro-
tect the sailor on the deck of the vessel
few feet away, with the American
flag above his head. The Chinese work
for wages upon which white man
would starve, and there is a crying
need for the protection of the Ameri-
can seaman from this competition. If
a Democratic congress is elected this
fall | think | could safely guarantee
the passage of such a law. We came
very near to winning the last time the
question was up.

Fl. E. Cook. a well known member
Of the Order and a farmers institute

the Tribune Farmer of recent date on
the Influence of the grange and who
should constitute its membership:
We are frequently met by the propo-
sition, To what extent may other
occupations and professions be adj
mitted? | took occasion recently to
say at our grange meeting in the pres
ence of SO called professional men that
the primary function of the Order was
social ethical and civic uplift: that so
long as one-third of our population
was agricultural there rested upon
this Order more than the burden of
purely agricultural matters. and that
its influence should reach out and i'm
pregnate the life of our small country
towns-aye, even the interior rural cities
of the land, that are largely dependent
upon country blood for municipal de-
velopment-and that we welcomed

culture and proper conception of
home and civic duty to our ranks, so
long as the leadership, inspiration, In
fiuence and guiding light came from
the farmer and the farm home. Such
is sure to lead the town man to great
er charity for others and blessing to
himself
The grange passed through period
of sloughing off this professional and
mercantile acquisition twenty-five
years ago, because those men sought
to make the Order subservient to their
own selfish interests. The farmers had
not at that time however, developed
that ability for leadership manifest
now. If the farm influence is again
permitted to give way to foreign ma
nipulation then is our fate sealed and
a period of decay must again prevail
The moment this outside influence APP

have seen the powerful influence Of
the grange during the legislative sea-
son just closed as never before. Are
we strong enough to maintain this eff
fective ascendency and continue our
present growth?
Only astute and discerning leader
ship will enable us to answer in the
affirmative. State and national grange
meetings will have to be engineered
away from the purely social and good
fellowship side of the proposition and
come to deal with problems from the
cold business point of view. There
must be strong men at the helm, ca
pable of good judgment first and then
the character and stamina to hold fast,
not swerving from the course.

The Treasury Esfici4s.


Evidently the rapidly increasing def
cit IN the treasury is soaring Repub-
licans within an inch of their lives.
consequently they are making a heroic
but futile effort to keep the facts from
the public The following notice has
been promulgated: by direction of the
president officials will neither discuss
nor give out any information regard
ing the annual estimates until further
orders" When will "the further or
ders' be given? Probably not until the
battle is lost or won on the 9Th day of
November. Can the public be fooled
in any such a way as that? Hardly.
Somehow or somehow else the infor-
nation will leak out, the direction of
the president to the contrary notwith-
standing. And it ought to be scattered
broadcast. The people should be dealt
with honestly, fairly. candidly and
fearIessly. When a serious charge was
made against Grover Cleveland in 1884
his orders to all concerned were, Tell
the truth" which did much to elect
him. The taxpayers of the land are
entitled to know the truth, the whole
truth and nothing but the truth touch

try so that they may put their houses
