first efficient and honest inquiry into
the causes Of assault upon the Jews in
Russia is that recently made by the
doumas committee. That report
frankly held the governor of Bialystok
responsible for the continuation of the
outrage by his cowardly act in absent
ing himself from his post. The begin
ming of the dark deed the douma did
not report upon, but it was undoubt-
eddy government diversion. The
cabinet lent it's aid to the awful pro-
ceedings in the hope of uniting the
anti-Jewish feeling in the country with
the anti-revolutionary feeling. The
government eagerly desired the CO.
operation of the peasants and it prob
ably did not hesitate to murder a few
hundred Jews to use their blood for
cement. The attempt has failed. 1t
has failed because the conscience of
Russia is awake. The country has
learned who it's real enemy is and has
learned that it is not the Jews.

DOES WILSON WANT THE JOB?
Continued From Page Six.)

When he stepped off the train that
brought him home from Europe Will
son declared he was ready to launch
a fight for control of the legislative
delegation. He has said so repeatedly
on the streets and has declared he
must dictate if his paper is to support
the republican ticket. He has noti-
fed personal friends to keep off the
county ticket because he may fight it.
Will Betray Piles.
Wilson did once and is again pre-
pairing to fight Piles. In fact. that
fight is started. Under cover Of a de-
mand for the direct primary. a sin
gular Wilsonian movement has been
launched to nominate the legislative
ticket only by that method. Politicians
know that the purpose of such a cam
paign would be to enable Wilson's
newspapers to make a fight against
Piles candidates. He would not be
able to secure his own choices, but he
might be able to defeat some men that
Piles wants, and must depend upon.
The attack upon Piles home sup
port has been made under cover Of a

fight against Ankeny. The effort to
keep Piles men off the legislative
ticket has been made under cover Of
direct primary agitation The war
fare against King county political in
terests will be continued under cover
of the proclamation that Wilson has
withdrawn from politics. Those who
have been backed into a corner and
talked at by Wilson know that his
ambition is first to defeat Ankeny,
then wipe Piles off the political slate.
Staging for the Play.
Wilson's announcement that he
would withdraw from politics was a
carefully planned attack. The set
tings were prepared for the announce
ment. The piece was we'll staged 1t
is true the political declaration was
dragged into purely commercial
meeting by the heels, but "Walla
Walla" Jones prepared the way for
that.
Jones is president of the Tacoma
chamber of commerce, and a former
Walla Walla wheat buyer. He is a
bitter enemy Of Senator Ankeny and a
follower Of Wilson. The enmity be-
tween Jones and Ankeny has domestic
influence to keep it alive and Jones
falls readily into any plan Of Wilson
aimed at Ankeny's injury.

EVERY BOXER KNOCK is A BOOST

If Mayor Hunt had been reelected
and had celebrated his victory by a
speech from a saloon bar, the little
Evening Pestilence would have de-
voted its whole issue to denouncing him
as a foe of order and decency, and
every Boxer in town would have taken
up the cry and kept it up till next
years election. But because the
Statesman published legitimate news
story of the celebration of the Boxer
victory, by saloon blowout which
was just as public as IF it had
been held on the court house lawn or
in Main street, war has been declared
upon this paper and an effort is being
made to injure it's business. So far
every knock has proven a boost For
every subscriber lost since Monday,
the Statesman has gained three. Yes
terday, for example, seven Boxers
stopped the paper and twenty one
persons, unsolicited, came to the
Statesman office and ordered the pa
per sent to their homes. The Boxers
who are fighting the Statesman are
proving excellent solicitors for the pa
per and they deserve credit for the
good work thew arc doing in hOOStipo

ENGLAND'S INDIA RULE.

Mr.. Bryan's London address on the
| white Mans Burden printed SIM
ultaneously with his letter on the
British administration of India, i'm
plies that Mr.. Bryan recognizes the
| responsibility Of the Caucasian to
bring forward the laggard nations, but
denies his right to exploit them for
his own benefit.
The British empire in India was
founded by a trading company, and it
remained the property of a trading
company until abuses of power made
it imperative for the government to
take over the administration since
it could not escape responsibility for
that administration. 1t has remained,
with few material notifications, what
it was in the beginning, white mans
government imposed upon a supposed
ly inferior race. No progress has been
dia except in local matters.
The country is heavily taxed and
largely to protect the Indian frontier
from the expected attack of Russia.
But the Russian assault upon the
frontier of India would be more felt in
London that it would be in India. If
successful, it would sound the knell of
English supremacy in the orient. 1t
would reduce ST. James to a second
airy place in the council Of nations. 1t
would, in a word, condemn Great Brit
ain to the rank of Spain, Holland and
Portugal. The Indian frontier is
line drawn between London and st.
Petersburg 1t is political and not
geographical.
The suggestion of Mr.. Bryan is that
England demands rather streep
contribution form India for the MAIN
tenance of a frontier whose destruc-
ton would mean to India merely a
change of masters.
Gladstone said: ut is liberty alone
which fits men for liberty" India has
not had liberty, and she has been con-
stantly denied it on the ground that
she is untitled for liberty. The same
argument is being advanced in Russia
today, but the people there appear to
have imbibed the notion that the only
way they can demonstrate their fit
ness or unfitness is to try it. The
men Of India are arriving slowly at
the same conclusion. A national spirit
lines This aspiration is being thrust
back by the arguments which tho
English do not permit themselves to
use in connection with Russia. The
English calmly disregard the implica-
ton that If India has not been fitted
for free institutions, England must
have some responsibility. The failure
is closely connected with the dispro-
portionate expenditures for education
and for military defense. The latter
absorbs SIS to the formers 81. 1t
comes back to the Conclusion that
England rules India from the stand
point of her fear Of Russia and not
from the viewpoint Of the native In
dian.

THE JEWS AND DREYFUS.

The fact that the Dreyfus case has
resulted in a vindication Of the de-
PENDANT, coupled with the fact that
King Edward has changed the day Of
holding his court so that Jews may
attend, is significant of the attitude of
two civilized powers toward the race
just at the time when Russia is going
to the opposite extreme.
Captain Dreyfus was originally per-
secuted because he is a Jew. His
troubles would have been over, in fact,
would never have begun, had he not
been a Jew officer of the army who
was eligible to and DESTROYS Of promo
ton. The Dreyfus case quickly de-
generated from an inquiry into the
guilt or innocence of an individual
into persecution of a race The pub
lie, the army and finally the courts
became divided into camps of Semites
and antiS emites. The forged testi-
mony, which would not have stood a
day in court, achieved a solidity indie
pendent of its merits as long as it rep
resented the aroused passions Of the
crusade. When the crusade died out
the documentary evidence on which
Dreyfus was originally condemned to
Devils island shriveled to so much
burnt paper Dreyfus was never but
for brief moment on trial He dis
appeared as an issue and the fairness
of France was placed in the dock. The
orgy Of hatred and scorn in which
France INDUCED herself nearly brought
the republic to ruin. That the nation
escaped she owes to the fact that the
public conscience woke up.
The public conscience in Russia is
awakening, too. but the douma and
not the autocracy is its keeper. The

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC,

The Walla Walla Trades and Labor
Council at it's meeting held Friday
night deemed it best to place itself be-
fore the public in regard to it's par
ticipation in the recent city election.
During the month of May a mass
meeting of union men was held at
which meeting a committee was ap-
pointed to interview candidates for
the different city offices on questions
pertaining to organized labor, and in
the matter of competitive bidding on
all city work and employment of resi-
dents of this city instead of non-resi-
dents. This committee, after finish
ing it's labors reported to the Trades
Council, endorsing or recommending
certain candidates whose past record
and expressions were most favorable
to matters brought before them by this
committee.
After completing it's labors this
committee reported it's findings back to
the central body, where said report was
adopted and copies sent to every union
man in the city.
While all the results are being
claimed by other parties the election
shows that the endorsement Of the
Trades and Labor Council had great
weight in electing the ticket.

STOCK BREEDERS
Annual Meeting And Eqhibit
What Is offered

The attention Of the stock reeders
;of the Inland Empire is called to the
coming annual meeting, and their
earnest cooperation to creating in
aerest in the work of the association
is solicited. Special effort on the part
OF those interested in the advance
ment of the live stock industry is
necessary at this time as two or
three years of more than average
success in grain growing always
weakens the interest of the great
body OF farmers in stock raising. To
let stock raising retrograde at this
time only agravates the difficulties,
during the period OF depression in
grain growing which almost newt
ably follows sooner or later.
An excellent program is being pre-
pared announcement Of which win
be given later. The special feature of
the meeting that we wish to call at
teution to at the present time is the
stock show held on Friday forenoon.
February 9th. An excellent prize list
il arranged and should call forth a
iine.eXhibit, Do not forget that the
purpose of this show is not to en-
courage the production OF fancy
stock as that phase is provided for
in the larger shows, but particularly
to encourage the production OF u
better class OF common stock from
Which we always draw the larger
supply OF animal products for con-
sumption. 1t is believed that this
Improvement may he brought about
most economically by the use of pure
bred sires and the prize lists have
been arranged accordingly. Ii you
have a good animal meeting the re-
quirement in some class, do not leave
it at home because you fear you will
get the prize but, bring it along and
help the enterprise. While tho prev.
ious shows have been good, there
have always been some classes with
no entries.
Remember that non@members may
enter stock, If you have nothing
good to show but know OF someone
who does, stir him up.
