NO SECOND FARE TO CONEY
SSENGERS ON BROOKLYN R
 T. REFUSE TO PAY1T
Guided by Opinion Handed Down by Justice GaynOr-Road, Under the Cir- cumstances, Declines to Carry Them Beyond Five Cent Limit-Blockade of Trains Mile Long-scenes of Dis- order-Many Suits Probable.

Or0eT---Many SuitS EFOUuules
 New York, Aug. 12. Scenes of disor- der were witnessed on a number of the trolley and elevated roads leading to Coney Island to-day when passengers, guided by an opinion handed down by Supreme Court Justice Gaynor yester- day refused to pay second fare. At one period during the, afternoon the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company re- fused to convey it's passengers beyond Neck Road, the second fare boundary, so long as any of the passengers refus- ed to pay the additional five cents, The result was blockade of cars and trains mile long, Great crowds of elected passengers gathered at the second fare points, held indignation meetings and promised to bring many suits for dam ages against the company, The police authorities had taken precautions to prevent serious trouble at these places, although the police were instructed not to interfere in disputes between pass engers and employees on the second fare question.
 While the police had acted during the day only to prevent disorder, they to- night took command and for time kept the cars moving so rapidly that the inspectors could not eject passen- gers. Later, however, the motormen declined to move the ears and the police arrested several of them for obstructing 1 the street.
 | They also took into custody Dow S. Smith, general superintendent of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company, on a charge of obstructing traffic by refusing to allow the cars to proceed to Coney Island, and Division Superintendent Ezra Davis on the same charge, it be- ing alleged that he ordered motorman not to proceed after he had been in- structed to do so by the police. The of- f1cials and motormen will be arraigned in police court tomorrow.
 Thousands of persons walked from Neck Road to Coney Island rather than submit to the company's demands. Oth- CT thousands who undertook to walk to Brooklyn after the blockades had demoralzed the traffic spent the night sleeping by the tracks.
 Four passengers who had started to walk to Coney Island were knocked from trestle by car and an infuriat- ed mob made threats to lynch the mo- torman when the police intervened and with drawn pistols held the crowd at bay. The passengers, two men and two women, were rescued by boatmen. They suffered contuslons and other minor injuries and were taken to a hos, pital.
 Borough President Coler and the Brooklyn Police Deputy O'Keefe were both on hand at intervals during the afternoon and were appealed to for ad- vice by the protesting passengers.
 The company announced it's purpose tonight of continuing to collect two fares to Coney Island until some action specifically restraining much a course is taken.
 | Several passengers were injured to. day by being thrown from the cars.

WILL PROTECT THE CHINESE
ORIENTAL CANAL WORKERS NOT
 TO BE IMPOSED UPON

United States Government Will Take
 Care that Contractors Do Justice to
 Them--Secretary of War to Have
 Privilege of Passing on All Contracts
 Which Labor Agents Make With
 Chinese Who Are to be Sent to the
 Isthmus.
 Washington, Aug. 12.--Care will be taken by the United States government to prevent contractors from doing in- justice to the Chinese laborers employ ed to work on the Panama canal. The specifications advertising for proposals to supply 2,500 Chinese to the canal commission will stipulate that the sec- retary of war shall have the privilege of passing on the contracts which la bor agents make with Chinese who are to be sent to the isthmus. This pro- vision will make it possible for Sec retary Taft to prevent discrimination against the coolles by interruptions contractors, Under this arrangement the United States will know ex- actly what the Chinese are paid by the labor agents, and the Chinese government will be able to afford its subjects protection on the isthnus because of the ease with which this government will be able to regulate the relations between the Chinese laborers and the contractors.
 Many contractors are seeking to sup ply the first 2,5O0 Chinese for the canal work. Until the specifications for the contracts are published contractors will not be ableto give any idea as to the wage they must pay for Chinese labor CTS on the canal zone Some labor agents believe that with the many re- strlctions the canal commission pur- poses placing on contractors 1t will not be possible to supply the the Chinamen at less than one dollar a day. Other agents are of the opinion that the coolies can be supplied for fifty or six ty cents a day, with far margin of profit to the contractors.
 In Jamaica West Indians are employ ed under long time contracts at prices ranging from twenty-five cents a day and rations which cost about only a few cents, to fifty certs @ day. The restrictions and safeguards thrown about these laborers, however, are very slight as compared with the restric- tions the United States will place upon the Chinese to be employed for canal work.

This is the year we elect to con-
gress. The issue this fall, consid-
cred from national standpoint, is
the record of that body. Do you
recall congress that has passed
more beneficial legislation than the
59th congress has made into law?
Has there been an administration
siuce that of Lincoln that has taken
up and satisfactorily solved mo; e
difficult preblirns than the present
one? Has any congress done more
for Washington and the Pacific
Northwest than the. present one?
Do you realize that the irrigation
law means more to this section than
any other ever passed, unless it be
the Homestead law? This law was
passed largely through The Presi-
dents influence. Aside from the
President, can you think of anyone
who has been more influential in
Advancing government irrigation
than Senator Ankeny or Congress-
man Wesley l.. Jones? Can you dc
better for yourself and for this sec
ton than to vote for the latter's
re election?

COUNTY SEAT PAPERS WILL
SUPPORT TICKET.

A county seat, Wi h two republi-
can papers ashamed or afraid to
support the republican ticket, is a
strange anomaly, even in Washing
ton politics. At all events, it does
not speak we'll for the party that
desires to be the dominant force in
controlling the county's destinies
When republicans thems. Ives ATE
ashamed of their ticket it is time
for decent men to refuse 10 vote it,
I-Prosser Record.
Both of the county seat papers
referred to will support the repub
lican county ticket before the cam
paign closes. The Benton County
Republican will declare itself for
the ticket in this weeks issue, we
make bold to predict.
The seeming reluctance of the
county seat papers to declare for
the republican ticket is not on ac-
count of any lack of fitness or abil-
ity of any Of the candidates Oh that
ticket. Their qualifications have
not been and cannot be truthfully
aSsailed.
The Courier repeats what it said
Immediately following the conven-
, ton: A good ticket has been put
i'll the field by the republicans of
this county, and it is deserving of
the support of every republican in
the county.
