"And yet" said Gorrnly quickly Il should think
he might discuss business with you to advantage.
What do you mean?" asked the girl
Il am business man, Miss Haldane, accustomed
to deal with and in a business way, and
much depends upon my ability to estimate the
capacity of those with whom | work l have not
often seen woman, even man, with better
head for business than you have
1t was the deftest thing the man could have said
to her. Women, she knew, were not naturally bust
nessl1ke and to have such qualities attributed to her
the subtlest kind of fattery. 1t came, too,
from who was power in the business world,
and was therefore the valuable.
. 1t is very good of you to say that said the girl,
smiling pleasantly in appreciation, and | am more
proud of it because everybody says you such
fine business yourself"
The way you have handled this settlement work
the busnesske way in which you presented it to
me, the flood of light you have poured on the work
it went on, and-forgive me-your quick ap-
prehenson of the suggestions my larger experience
has enabled me to make have all convinced me of
the truth of this. You indeed young
woman Miss Haldane'
There something in the that rather dis
armed the blunt directness of the statement, she
thought. Il should like to do something really
worth while, said the girl after little pause,

Cushman's figures will be a
revelation to the public that is
paying trust prices for everything
it purchases. ...........
He cited the laws passed by
republican congresses in behalf of
labor, beginning with the Dingley
tariff act and ending with the law
for ash-pans in locomotives.
Cushman said that four years
hence the people would laugh at
the statements Bryan is making
today on Taft's position on injunc-
tons as they do now at Bryan's
statements eight years ago as to
McKinley's attitude on the govern
ment Of the Philippines. He said
Taft had gone to the Philippines
as a friend of the Filipinos and
not as an oppresser, and he con-
cluded with the expressed hope
that the American people on cleo
ton day will think as much of Taft
as the Filip.nos do.
AS usual, large part of Cush-
mans address was devoted to an
exposition of what a marvellous
success he had made of himself.

COLLINS ON CUSHMAN
Says Russell F. Collins:

Says Russell F. Collins:
Il went to hear Congressman
Cushman last night, and | consid-
er his address rare treat to any
one who enjoys absurdities. His
logic was lopsided. He reasoned in
a circle and repudiated his own
statements, time and again, and
what was the strangest thing to
me, that reasonably intelligent
audience could actually approve
such contradictions.
Let me point out one among
many of these In scoring Mr..
Bryan on the silver question and
his attempt, as Cushman put it, to
legislate and make so cent dollars
worth dollar, he said that all the
laws from Moses to the present
time could not legislate value into
anything. Then Cushman imme-
diately proceeds to laud and APP
plaud the Dingley tariff law, which
leglSlated billions onto the selling
price of American manufactures.
call attention to this for the
simple reason that I wish my re-
publican friends, who pronounce
his speech as splendid argument,
to hink his over in the cold light
of reason. Cushman also skipped
over and failed to call attention
to the fact that we have i'm exist
ence today two billions of legis-
lated money, and that the last SEES
sion of congress authorized by leg
islation another half billion to the
present money stock. | call atten-
ton to this one among many of
his contradictions to show how il
logical and farcical were his con-
illusions"

ton is abolished or amended to
such an extent as to lose it's effec-
tiveness."
The declarations and misrepre-
sentation of labor's true attitude
on the issue reminded the work
ing men forcibly of Cushman's Mt
Vernon speech of two years ago
when he wanted to wade in blood
to his foottops to beat back the
vicious onslaught of organized
labor.
Last night he assumed that Ia
boris only opposition to the injunc-
ton was a desire for a free hand
In inaugurating a reign of terror.
Naturally the fitting accompani-
ment to that achievement was the
heroic Cushman with the colored
light turned on stalking grandly
away from the ruin of the nation
with his back turned to it.
Cushman's attitude on the trust
question was that there were good
and bad trusts, and that only ~
per cent of the goods made in this
country were of trust manufacture
He was against any sweeping anti
trust legislation, as in such an eff
fort there was danger of destroy
ing the So per cent of non-trust
controlled industry to punish the
II per cent dominated by the
trusts

INJUNCTION THE
MEDICINE FOR
LABOR
NO TRUSTS TO SPEAK OF IN
COUNTRY EITHER, AND YOU
MUSTN'T BOTHER THEM,
SAYS CUSHMAN.

The defiant attitude of Con-
gresham Cushman, of Tacoma, on
the question of anti-injunction le-
gislation, enunciated in his speech
at the Spokane theater last night,
has caused more talk than any po-
litical utterance delivered here dur
ing the entire campaign.
Cushman boldly hurled labor's
attitude on the injunction question
back into its face with the state
ment that the injunction law as it
stands is good enough and will be
upheld by the republican party.
Cushman delivered himself of
his injunction views in his usual
melodramatic manner. Laying
aside his notes, and drawing his
long black coat more closely about
his long, lean body, he approached
the front of the platform, and in
the deep tones of a stage hero,
said:
Oil DtlICNSl III VIC law. II
will be a sad day when we start
in to pass laws for a part of the
people. This will be class legis-
lation and will not stand the test
of the courts. Such jug handled
laws will not 60 in this country.
Labor unions have a right to
quit and right to strike, but there
their right ends, and the right of
another to take the job begins.
You cannot uphold the right of a
laborer to strike and deny the
right of another man to take his
place. Before ! would vote to pass
any law that would take away
from the courts the right to pro-
tect life and property ! would turn
my back on the capital of my
country forever and a day.
"The republican party will not
tear down the fundamental law of
the land. Whenever men try to
keep others from going to work
they ought to be enjoined, and
will be enjoined. Injunction laws
ought not to be framed in the in
terest of labor any more than in
the interest of capital.
The writ of injunction has been
invoked hun 1reds of times against
capital to the one time against
labor. 1t will be the saddest day
in the history of labor in this
country when the writ of injunc-

TAFT-ROOSEVELT
LETTERS COMING

NEW YORK. Oct. 16-Announce
ment is made today by Hampton S
Broadway magazine that it will
publish in the November number
a letter from Roosevelt to Taft
and another from Taft to Roosevelt
relative to the presidential nomin-
alton, in which the president de-
clined to advise Taft what course
to take.
The Taft letter expressed a
preference for the supreme bench,
but says circumstances seemed to
have imposed upon him a trust he
could not disregard.
Roosevelt told Taft there was
strong argument against him TAX
ing the justiceship because he
thought Taft had the best chance
of being nominated for the presi-
dency. The letter says in conclu-
sion, mo one can with wisdom
advise you"

,recaIl-an attempt which failed
for lack of signatures to the peti
ton. The effort had its birth ir
| the action of the commissioner Of
police in abolishing that nipple
ment of cheap but dishonest
gambling, the slot machine. Those
whose pocketbooks were touched
stormed and threatened and
started a recall" 1t died aborn
ing.
All other doings of the mayor
and four commissioners have
seemed to satisfy the people.
Like many other cities, Des
Moines has been governed in the
past by its public service cor.
porations. The street car COM
pany owned the city council, and
the city's government was divided
up between the water, gas and
street car corporations. When the
time came to change to the com
mission plan, he corporations
sought to perpetuate their rule,
and ticket satisfactory" to
them was put into the field.
But the people were too wise.
One man, ex-Mayor John Mac.
Vicar, had been specially marked
by the street car corporations for
defeat. 1T would be worth $4,000
to use to keep him out of office -
one corporation man had indis.
creetly said. So this John Mac.
Vicar was chosen by the people
to be commissioner of streets and
street car matters generally. That
was just the kind the people want.
ed-the kind the corporations
would pay heavily to defeat.
So now the street car franchise
matter is in the federal courts,
They have had the nerve to claim
perpetual franchise and have
found judge in the lower courts
-MacPherson-with nerve enough
to give judicial sanction to that
claim. The case now goes up.
The Des Moines commission is
popular body. One of it's mem.
bers is a member because he
caught and exposed "one of our
best citizens" in an effort to
pass him a bribe; another, an ex-
coal miner, because he had the
united support of union labor; an
other because he was opposed by
the corporation-owned newspapers !;
and so on. They are distinctly
the selections of the people, and
are free from any suspicion of cor.
porate control.
Rome was not built in a day :;
nor can even a Des Moines COM
mission solve all municipal prob
lens in six months. But an excel
lent start has been made for
cheaper and cleaner water; for
cheaper and better gas and cleo
tricity; for cheaper and better
pavements; for a good city hall;
for wiping out the aldermanic
debt; for municipal market; for
Fairgrounds and enlarged parks,
and few more things of this sort.
The Des Moines commission plan
is fine, and so far it is working
fine.

CITY GROWS BY
BIG LEAPS

An idea of the unprecedented
growth of the residence district
can be had when one stops to
consider as an instance that in the
last two years Slater & Slater
alone have sold 1897 lots in Lidger-
wood alone.
They first sold out North Lid
gerwood, with 1872 lots; then the
First addition to Lidgerwood, ZIG
lots; newt the Second addition to
Lidgerwood, $50 lots; then West
Kenwood, 218 lots; Lidgerwood
heights, 1875 lots, and Vista
heights, 4S lots. No other section
of the city has seen such expan.
sion in the way Of sales of newly
plated ground as has the region
north and northeast of Lidger-
wood in the last two years.
Now the expansion has veered
to the immense region west of Di-
vision street and north of the
older plated additions in that Sec
ton.

FOR A GREATER WHITMAN.

y little effort on the part of each
citizen will do much toward the New
Whitman" movement, which ultimate
~ means that Walla Walla is to b"
the seat of the greatest college in the
west. Whitman college as it stands to-
day is the result of years of hard work
and effort on the part of those whose
lfe work is to make this college the
greatest institution of learning in tao
entire west. Building a great college is
not the work of a day, a week Or a year
hut the labor of a great many years.
To gain this end it is necessary that
every citizen in the community lend
his aid to TIE movement. Gathering to-
Scthcr $2000.000 is no light task, even
in these days when millions are reck
Hned as dollars were twenty years ago.
From = commercial standpoint alone

toward greater Walla Walla with a
