DO YOU FAVOR IMMIGRATION
RESTRICTION.

The workingmen of Duluth should
join with their fellows in other parts
of the country and petition their rep
resentatives in congress to aid in the
securing of legislation intended to Of
fer greater restriction to the unde-
sirable class of immigrants which
are daily entering our country.
We offer our readers the following
four forms, and we would ask that
from them you write letter to our
congressman and senators urging
them to get busy:
The question: of the currency, reg
ulation of railroad rates, supervision
or control of Insurance companies,
appropriations for the completion of
the canal and the maintenance of a.
protective tariff relate to THINGS
while the restriction of immigration
relates to HUMAN BEINGS, and the
protection of our homes against the
riff-raff OF Southern Europe and the
Oriental countries. l urge you to
have enacted, at this session of con-
gress, laws to restrict immigration
by increase of the head-tax, educa-
tional test, rigid physical examination
upon arrival and a most careful in
spection and certification as to char
acter at the port of embarkation..
The schemes of the railroads and
other great corporations to encourage
the distribution of the Immigrants,
now collecting in the great Eastern
cities, to parts of the country where
it is claimed they can secure employ
ment will displace the native born
and naturalized day laborers. fo,.
many of those who are coming from
the pauper districts of Europe can
exist each day on a pint of beer and
loaf of bread. We do not want that
kind of people in this locality. At
this session of congress is the time to
enact law to protect us against the
pauper, criminal, illiterate, diseased
and weak-minded hordes of immi:
grants who are coming from South
ern Europe. An educational test, a
careful inspection at the port of en-:
barkation and a rigid physical ex-
animation before they are permitted
to land will keep out a great many Of

DR.. GLADDEN. FAVORS TRADE
UNIONS,

The Congregationalist contains a
lengthy paper by the Rev. DR.. WASH
ington GLADDEN., entitled MY Neigh
Dor the Unionist'
The author takes positive and
strong ground in favor of labor un-
ions, holding that they are not only
an indisputable right of the working
men, but that they are the only
means by which the laboring classes
can escape being enslaved or degrad-
ed, and that they protect their own
interests, secure fair hours of labor
and proper remuneration and fix their
social status in accordance with the
best ideals and habits of the age.
From this standpoint DR.. GLADDEN.
urges all employers to welcome and
cooperate with the trades-unions.
x "Perhaps,' says DR.. GLADDEN., "yo,.
will say that some trades-unionists
sometimes behave like criminals and

CLAPP SPRINGS
SENATORIAL COUP
Presents Resolution Which
Surprises Lobbyists From
Indian Territory.
WASHINGTON o. C. FER

"@os7IN0 yin, =. ~, Sd. Zo.--
Senator Clapp took a hand at the
senatorial coup business today. The
bill to wind up tribal affairs of FIVE
civilized tribes Of Indian territory
came up again for discussion and it
became evident that Aldrich Of Rhode
Island is determined to defeat the bill
unless it is so worded as to make pos
sible the securing of a big land grant
by the Missouri, Kansas & Texas rail-
road. whereupon Senator Clapp pre-
sented resolution placing the entire
government of the five civilized tribes
in the hands of the secretary Of the
interior after March 4, in the event
that congress fails to pass the RENE
dial legislation. - 49,.
The Clapp resolution fairly took the
breath from the Indian Territory lob
BY, which has spent weeks in Wash
ington.
Tams Bixby, commissioner of the
FIVE civilized tribes. said that it was
the proper thing to do.
It is. said today that opponents Of the
bill would rather see it pass with
many Objectionable features than to
have the affairs Of. the tribes and ter
ritory placed in the hands of Secretary

DEATH OF p. j. MCGUIRE.

At his home, Camden, N. j., on
Feb. 10, P. J. Mcclure, former sec
rotary of the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners, and founder
of the American Federation of La
Dor, died after a lingering illness.
He was So years of age.
Mr.. Mcclure had during his life
performed greater service for labor
than any other man in the movement.
From the beginning of his career he
was most active man, and only
threw off the harness when compell-
ed to do so by failing health.
He tasted all the bitterness of the
life of labor agitator," and enjoy
ed few. of it's sweets, except possibly
an occasional honor from the hands
of his fellows. Even this was made
bitter near the end of his life by a
cowa!dly and underhanded attack
from men ambitious to succeed him
in office.
While confined at his home in
sickness his office was ransacked by
his rivals; papers and cash slips were
destroyed, and the old man was sus-
pended from office in dishonor. He
never returned to robust health after
that, and it was with considerable
difficulty that he proved his inno-
cence. 1t was then too late for him
to return to active service in the la
Dor movement because of his ply
steal disability.
P. J. Mcguire was loved and re-
spected by every true student of the
trade union movement. 1t was he
who laid down the policy which for
years promoted and stimulated the
great American labor movement. His
Judgment was always taken when
grave issues were involved, and it
was upon him that the great leaders
OF today leaned in the early times of
the trade union movement.
He laid the foundation, built the
frame work and enclosed it for the
great Carpenters union. In doing
this he was often obliged to travel
on freight train, while his success
sors enjoy the comforts of a modern
Pullman. While that great union has
made wonderful progress during the
past few years under it's new lead
ership, it was P. ]. Mcclure who
made it possible for this Union to
make such acconip lfshments. To. rob
him of one iota of credit would be a
crime. Now that he is dead those
who decried him will have an oppor-
tunity to reflect. and those who ad-
mired him can we'll pay tribute to his
memory.

their attempts to regulate wages or

County Most psy

One oi the minor cases tried be. fore Judge Doan last week that of Allen F. Bird, as Clerk of the Court, against santa Cruz county. in which judgment was given the plaintiff in the sum of $jj and costs, will be considered with pe- culiar interest in all the counties, involving, as it does fees of all the clerks in the matter of swearing jurors to their service and mileage.
 It has been the custom ever since Santa Cruz county was created , and long before, for the clerks to administer oaths to grand and trial jurors as to their service and mileage; and for that purpose the territory and county supplies the clerks with blank certificates to which are attached blank allidav- it's. Those ahidavits are filed as matter of record. And in each case there is fee of fifty cents and ten cents for filing.
 In the first week of Mr. Birds first term as clerk, along came Mir. Foster, the territorial examiner, who decreed that the oaths to jurors certificates were unneces- sary; and he ordered the district attorney and board of supervisors to cease paying for administering the oaths to jurors, and for filing them. The clerk was so notified. Just at that time the clerk had not time to look into the matter, but as a matter of personal safety he instructed his deputy to continue administering the oaths, for that term of court, at least
 Giving the subject consideration after the term of court the clerk reached conclusion that the oaths were necessary with regard to the mileage certified to, if not for the per diem. So he determin- ed to test the matter, and includ ed in the first quarterly account thereafter charge for the oaths to jurors, and their filing. In accord ance with the instruction by the territorial examiner the items per taining to those charges were cut out from the bill. Next the clerk
