The counciLmen who refused to re-
peal that Fourth street railroad fran
chise may find it difficult to be elected
again, if they should wish to be. The
wishes of the people are pretty plain
on that proposition, and they will elect
men to do their will.

A FAKE STRIKE.
x0O00.xOOOOO0

The so-called strike of street car
men promises at the present time to
be even more of fzzle than it was
last summer. The curiosity of it is
that it seems to be a strike of some
more or less self-constituted labor
leaders on the street car mems ac-
count, they for the most part not
striking nor wishing to strike. They
were going along attending to their
business and were for the most part
satisfied; or if they had any griev-
ances they were quite capable of get
ting together and giving them express
sion and making them known to their
employers, who have always met them
half way at least in any request they
had to make; but few professional
agitators and mischief makers thought
it was time to stir up some trouble
somewhere, somehow, and so cor
dered" a streetcar mems strike. with
out the streetcar mems knowledge or
consent. The tyranny of employers
scarcely ever went to such an extreme
as this tyranny of labor leaders who
work only with their mouths in trying
to compel several hundred men to quit
their jobs who don't want to do so
and have no good reason for doing Sc.
1t may be that the streetcar men
ought to have more pay; it may be
that they should not be photographed,
for this offends the sensibilities of
some OF them and might be used to
injure them; it may be that they
should be recognized as a union, but
if so and they choose unitedly to make
these demands very likely the COM
pany would accede to them or would
make concessions and arbitrate but
the company's officers are quite right
in refusing to have anything to do
with labor agitators entirely outside
the ranks of the carmen, and who
have no business meddling with their
affairs. If the carmen would unitedly
strike and hang together, they could
no doubt tie up the roads to a great
extent, and might force concession to
their demands. and as long as they |
did no violence, public sympathy |
would be with them; but for a few of
these professional agitators, whose
principal work is working the work
ingmen, to try to force the streetcar |
men into a strike which most of them !
are unwilling to go into and many of |
them knew nothing about, is both an
absurd and wicked piece of business.
Such pretended or fake strike does
not deserve a sympathetic strike on
the part of any other class of work
men, and the federated trades will get
no credit to itself by indorsing the
abortive movement The working
mems worst enemies are these fellows
who labor only to make mischief, and
to coax, push or drive honest work
ingmen into a strike that will do them
far more harm than good.

THERE IS A LIMIT.

It is not the purpose of the Yukon Valley News to enter into a defense of Commissioner J Lindley Green. It is not the papers mission to act as the personal organ of any individual, official or otherwise.
 But really does it not appear to the more decent and far-minded people of the community, including the commis- sioner's enemies, that his assailants' methods are reprehensible?
 The people opposed to Mir Green as commissioner are known almost to d man: there is no reason why they should not let their opposition be known Take d mental inventory of them: Is not the method of the oppo- sition an index to the character of every one? Are not the most vitupera- tive ones very vile? Blackmailer, com mon liar, shyster, on up to the thought less dolt-are not they all there, each ones place in the scale denoted by the method of his attack?
 To oppose MT. Green as commissioner does not imply that a man is any of these There may be good men who do not take to him as official or man. But decency imposes limit. There is a point beyond which manhood can not go. There is class of opposition that proves nothing but that the men who resort to it are beyond the pale of re- spectability.

Modjeska's Farewell.

Modjeska was given a great recep-
ton at the Keylor Grand theater Sat-
urday when she appeared in Schiller's
tragedy, MARY Stuart" The house
ionable audience, VINO witnessed a
good rendition of the play. That the
people appreciated the efforts of Mod
jeska and her company to please their
hearers was evidenced by the numer-
Gus curtain calls that were demanded.
Modjeska surprised her hundreds of
admirers, who had feared that age had
weakened her histronic powers. While
the lack Of physical strength was ap-
parent, Modjeska still retains that fine
ness and variety of voice that has
made her famous as tragedienne. In
the famous scene with Elizabeth in
Frotheringay park something of
the old fire appeared in eye and voice
as, goaded to revolt by the attitude of
her sister, she hurls forth insult after
insult in Infatuated disregard for
her own fate.
Outside of Edwin Caldwell, Nodes
ka's support was not up to standard
and it is to be regretted that she had
not surrounded herself with better
people.

MOUNTAIN CHARLEY'S FEAT.
How He Conquered q Grizzly With
. His Bare Hands.

How He Conquered q Grizzly with
His Bare Hands.
Nearly all old Californians, says the
author Of Early Days In California"
have heard of Mountain Charley"
who lived in the Santa Cruz noun
tains, where he hunted bear and deer.
OF his adventures. many of which were
remarkable, there is none stranger
than his fight with grizzly.
One morning he started out with his
gun. He had gone but short distance
when he found himself face to face
with a grizzly. The bear was sitting
on his launches reaching for acorns
when Charley came upon him. The
hunter tried to bring his rifle up, but,
being at such close quarters, the bear
disarmed him by striking the weapon
with it's paw and knocking it out Of his
hands. At the same time he embraced
Charley.
Both fell to the ground. Being on a
hillside, they rolled over and over until
they reached the ravine below, when
the bear loosened it's hold, yet did not
seem inclined to give up the fight.
Charley realized that his only chance
was to wind" the bear by striking him
with his fist over the heart. He landed
blow as near the region as possible.
He struck first with one fist and then
with the other in rapid succession when
he found the bear weakening.
By this time they were close to the
embankment OF the creek. The bear
had lost no time in getting in his
scratches and bites. 1t had made one
wound over the hunters forehead and
down the cheek to the bone and had
torn one of his eyes from the socket. 1t
had also fastened it's teeth in the mans
left arm and made an ugly wound
there
With desperate lunge Charley shOv
ed the bear over the embankment into
the water. Then, too weak to stand, he
fell exhausted upon the ground. The
bear was apparently in the same cOndi-
ton. 1t waded to the opposite bank
and lay down.
At last the bear rose to it's feet and
walked up the stream, frequently stop
ping and looking back, as if hesitating
whether or not to renew the fight. Go
ing at a slow pace, it finally disap-
peared.
When Mountain Charley thought he
could move with safety, he crawled to
the stream and drank little water.
then washed the blood from his face,
pushed the eye back into the socket
and crawled to his home. He was TAX
en- to San Jose for medical treatment.
The bones Of one arm were broken.
Several months passed before he re-
covered. His eye was not destroyed,
but his face was so disfgured that his
friends hardly knew him. Not discour
aged by this terrible experience, how
ever, he continued to hunt until game
became scarce.

TO COMMENCE WORK OF CON-
STRUcTION FROM SEATTLE
TO WALLA WALLA,
Will Begin in Yakima Valley Where
Strategic Points are First to be
Covered.

Robert E. Strahorn, president Of the
North Coast railway, has gone to New
York to be gone several weeks Upon
his return to the west it is probable
that the announcement of the trans
continental connection will be made.
Mr.. Strahorn was in Seattle Saturday
and in company with Chief Engineer
Pitman was in consultation with James
A. Kerry, one Of the directors and the
general attorney. Before leaving for
the east Mr.. Strahorn said to a news
paper reporter:
"The North Coast road is ready to
commence the construction of 200
miles of it's road, and this work will be
started as soon as I return from the
the Yakima valley, where we have some
strategic points 10 cover. Practically
all of the line of the North Coast road
has been located, and it has been def
nitely determined to use the Tieton
pass in coming through the mountains.
Not Ready for Announcements.
"The North Coast is not ready to an
nounce it's transcontinental connec-
lions at this time, but the announce
ment will be made as soon as the af-
fairs are in shape to warrant the state
ment being made. The announcement
is withheld at this time on account of
certain conditions in the East, and is
not due in any way to the Washington
part of the new transcontinental sys-
tenn.
Il consider that it will be of more i'm
portance to commence construction OF
the road than it will be to name the
money interests back of the project,
and that is what we are preparing to
do. It will take at least two years for
the North Coast to construct its line
to this city, and in the meantime we
may be able to acquire the necessary
