THAT STEAL (?)

When Smoothbore Clark becomes
posed for an answer to lcritlcism in this
paper he invariably falls back on that
old chestnut Of a steal (?) Of $447 from the
city, through a combination in the mat.
ter of city printing contracts. Friend
Smoothbore has told that yarn 60 often
that he has prevailed upon himself to
believe it, as frequently occurs to per-.
sistent liars. AS usual, this custodian
of the labor union vote errs. He has not
fixed the sum high enough, and to put
him wise we will tell the facts. When
the present editor assumed the manager
ment Of the HERALD, this paper was just
completing a contract for doing the city
advertis sing for the sum Of one cent for
the year, and he at:once set about reme'
dying this sort of..business suicide by the
only available means, combination With
its competitor. There was no more secret
about this tn an there isitoday about the
organization Of the saw mills or labo,
unions to securel uniformity OF prices,
and instead Of one year,, as Smoothbore
has it, the plant worked very satisfac-
toriIy for four or fivejyears, until the ad.
vent OF our whispering friend. who.
when asked to come in, said he person.
ally favored the combination as busi.
meas proposition. but telephened tho
writer later that the dirsctorso Of his CON-
psny would not permit him to enter.
So, if any credit is.due for stoppinH this
steal ~ it belongs to the directors. al.
though Smooth bore inclinUs to swipe it,
in conformity with his rule Of claiming
everything, from controlling 1000 votes
ON Grays Harbor to protecting the city
from robbers.
With stupidity that is almost sublime,
Smoothbore sees no Inconsistency in
decrying any organization to secure bet.
ter prices or wages while posing % the
defender OF organized labor for that very
purpose. and claiming credit for forcing
down the price for official advertising to
actual cost OF type competition while he
D,tensibly advocates higher wages for
printers. Official advertising should
always pay full rates. No newspaper
can overcharge for such work, as the
maximum rate is fixed by law, and nons
of it is published voluntarily. 50 that q
low price does not increase its volume.
A newspaper can buy neither material
or labor without butting up against a
combination to enhance the cost, yet
Smoothbore thinks it crime that this
profession shouldladopt similar methods.

butter almost TO the last pound, leav-
ing the buyers to depend almost entire
~ on the daily receipts for their sup

PIRATES KILL
A MISSIONARY
Attack Made Upon British
Steamer on the West River
Captain Wounded.

Victoria. Aug. 11.--Details of the at
tack on the British steamer Stinam by
Chinese pirates on the West river and
the murder of DIR. Macdonald, mis-
sionary, and some of the crew, were
received by the steamer Monteagle,
which arrived from the Orient today.
There were only three foreigners on
board, Captain Joslin, the chief en-
gineer, and DR.. Macdonald of the Wes-
leyan mission at WI Chow. The three
white men were chatting on the prone
made deck when seventy passengers
dropped their disguise and started to
shoot at the crew. Captain Joslin was
shot in the chest, as he ran forward to
aid the Indians and Chinese sailors.
DR.. Macdonald, who ran to offer aid
dragged the captain back to the salon,
being barricaded for defense by the
engineer.
Missionary Killed.
Two windows remained open and the
pirates fired through these at the men
inside. The men hid under the dining
table. DIR. Macdonald was struck by a
bullet fired at close range, and in
stantly killed. Captain Joslin realized
the impOssibility of reaching the
bridge, yet showed presence of mind
by throwing himself on the deck I'm the
passenger cabin, pretending to be dead
The pirates tore off his coat and
trousers and a ring from his finger and
left him, after giving him a number of
kicks. Blood flowed freely from his
chest and he remained mOtionless, the
pirates being deceived into thinking
him dead.
Engineer Hid Under Boiler.
The chief engineer hid under the
boilers, and after searching for an hour
for him the pirates turned their atten-
ton to the Chinese passengers and
crew, robbing them of everything they
possessed. After loOting the vessel
they dropped her anchor and left in
five native boats. Captiin Joslin lay
immovable fOr an hour after they had
gone before venturing to crawl from
the cabin. On arrival at SaInshui the
piracy was reported to his majesty's
steamship Moorhen, which started in
pursuit and captured some of the
pirates.
