Its name is klamath Falls, it is

PASSES A FEW THOUGHTS OVER
THE WISE ONES OF NEW
YORK WHO KNOW ALL ABOUT
MONEY, SOUND, SOUNDLESS
AND OTHER KINDS.

1t is both comical and pathetic to
read that there is as ociety in the
east which has agreed that there is
too much gold money in the coun-
try; that something must be done to
save us. We feel sorry for those
gentlemen. Gold was all they
prayed for a few years ago, and as
a sort of codicil for their prayer
there was a petition that none but
sound money" might ever be
known in this country. In their SUI
preme stupidity they made two mis-
takes, one was the belief that they
knew something about the philuso-
ply of money, and the other was
that they and their friends were the
only honest men left in the repub-
lie. They Joined with the late la
mented Grover Cleveland in believ-
ing that certain western states were
unwelcome" st(tes in the union be-
cause Of the financial heresies of the
majority of the people inhabitating
those states. And at that time Mr..
Cleveland had never devoted an
hour to the careful study of the
financial question and had never de-
voted half an hour to the considera-
ton of whether there was any mer-
it in the claims of those western
men. Dan Manning told him what
the national bankers and bond-hold-
ers in the great eastern cities want"
ed and that settled the matter with
him. What was the use in spending
time in working on problem that
had already been solved. And then
did not the conclusion correspond
with the views of Professor Laugh
lin of Chicago, Professor Sumner OF
Yale and that of Edward Atkinson,
who wrote a treatise on political
economy every morning before
breakfast and proved that all former
writer's on the same themes were in-
spired by an ignorance that was
well-nigh criminal.
Well those wise men through an
obedient press and a lavish use of
money carried the day. They did
not leave much money in circula-
tion, but was not that littie Nsound?"

making bitter fight the metal work
ers of Los Angeles, in mass meeting
yesterday decided to abandon this
city and move with their families to
some nearby beach town.
Nearly 1900 striking metal work
ers were represented at the meeting.
While no formal resolution was
adopted, the suggestion of wholesale
removal was received uproariously.
The unionists supported the plan by
a unanimous viva voice vote.
According to the plans of the lead
ers as outlined by Stuart Reid, ma
tional organizer of the American
Federation of labor, the Hegira will
begin as soon as a site for the new
union city can be decided upon.
He believes that one of the beach
towns near Los Angeles will offer a
site in order to bring into its limits
at least 5000 who persons would be
affected by the movement.

our family will grow into something
larger. So far as possible we will
boycott all non-union goods made in

The injunctions granted yesterday
were requested by the Llewellyn
iron works and the Western Pipe and
Steel works. They were granted by
Judge Bordwell's court.
