change in the present law. lie has
issued his ultimatum. and Is prepared
to veto any legislation to re-establish
the sport of kings, should such ac-
ton become necessary to preserve the

II was hoped by the racing interests
that more lenient legislation might

Racing Commission. This body rec

This law holds responsible the diTec-

Another council was held. And
while it was being held, the Fonbergs
kept up steady stream OF bullets
on the lumber pile.
Suddenly Constable Bailey threw

then sagged down on the ground.

Whitley rushed over to his COM
rade. And even as he bent over the
still body, he, too, pitched forward,
with bullet through his groin.
Tetley ran over and grasping
Whitley by the shoulders dragged
him out of range of the murderous
rifle fire.
With Whitley in safety, Tetley tried
to return for Bailey's body. Twice
he attempted a run for the timber
pile, and twice he was driven back
by the hail of shot from the dugout.
But, true to the traditions of the
Northwest Mounted, >Tetley waited
to make another trial.
The Fonbergs spotted him on the
hillside. They began taking pot shots
at him. One bullet struck him on
the hand, and so disabled him that
he could not have rescued Bailey
even if Bailey had been alive.
But I've got to find out if Bailey's
dead or not" Tetley muttered, as he
bound his hand.
Whitley recovered consciousness
only to suffer excruciating pain from
his wound. But he, too, gritted his
teeth, and advised Tetley to make
sure.
Oscar Fonberg climbed on to the
roof of the dugout and waved his
rife at the two wounded constables,
haunting them.

Tetley ran down to the pile Of lumber
and found Bailey body. It was cold
and stiff.
There was nothing more to be
done, except notify the district sta
ton of the Mounted at Tofield of the
murder, and get Whitley under a
surgeons care.
The two constables rode all that
night and all the next day, rode
while Whitley's wound was Sc, pain
full that every step of his horse was
agony unspeakable, rode while Tet-
ley's wounded hand became swollen
and festered..
At last they reached the Tofeld
post and told the story OF tie muir

The news was flashed to Fort
Saskatchewan, and from there to
Edmonton.
Inspector Sweetaple, with Con-
stables Parker, Wilson and Bates left
Tofield for the scene Of the murder.
Sergeant Major Emery, with Con-
stable Hendrickson, were sent to join
them from Fort Saskatchewan.
Inspector Raven and six constabIes
started for the dugout from Edmon-
ton as soon as the news was received
there.
Oscar Fonberg, the wounded
brother, was captured at the begin
ming and sent to Fort Saskatchewan,
where he is now under medical care.

THE CIVIC LEAGUE OPPOSES
GOVERNMENT BY THE PEOPLE
State Meeting of the Open Shop Inter
ests Held at Seattle for the Pur-
pose of Organizing Their Fight
on Popular Measures Be-
fore the Legislature.
Especial Correspondence }

Olympia, Wash, Jan. 15.-That they
stand for progressive legislation but
will oppose freak" measures at this
session of the legislature, is the sub
stance of the statement that was CIV
en- out as the purpose of the Washing
ton State Civic League, following a
meeting which was held in Seattle
last week by delegates from all of the
open shop organizations of the state.
Great secrecy surrounded the deli
berations of this body, and only
enough information was given out by
these professional labor skinners to re-
assure the people of the state that
they are "disinterested" and "unself-
ish" patriots on guard against freak
legislation. Their assurance that they
stand for progressive legislation was
given out for the purpose of making
it doubly certain that they now, and
have been at all times, genuine "all
wool and yard wide" defenders of
the people in all really desirable leg
islation.
The character of men who comprise
the Washington State Civic League,
the kind of legislation for which they
stand, what they mean by freak"
measures, the special interests they
serve, a nd what classification they
have in mind when they say "the peo-
ple," are all matters that deeply con-
Germ the people of this state just at
this time.
The men and organizations in all
parts of the state who make up this
organization, miss-called civic
league, are of the same identical class
as the Spokane branch which held a
midnight session on December IL
for the avowed purpose of organizing
campaign by big business interests
against the legislative program of the
Washington State Federation of La
Dor, the State Grange and the Farm
ers' Union. They are a conglomera'
tion of open shop advocates, represen'
tatives of public service corporations
who dislike to be disturbed in their

LUMBER WORKERS SHOULD BE
UNITED BEFORE CANAL OPENS

I According to these, we find tina
agents of big steamship companies
are now selling passage tickets to the
prospective immigrants on the install
ment plan. The fare from Europe tC
the Pacific Coast is only $39-less
than $40 more than is now being
charged for steerage passengers tc
New York.
The same articles tell us that 500,
900 will land on the Western Coast
during the first year after the open
ing of the Canal. The great possible
opportunities for cheap labor make
the mouths of big business water.
The probable great increase in pop
ulation will mean a greatly increased
activity in manufacturing. The pros
pect of cheap labor is already causing
Eastern manufacturers to look for fac
tory sites out here. Lumber being the
chief resource the products to be man
ufactured will naturally be largely
such as require lumber in their pro
duction. That an increased activity
in the lumber industry will be the
principal immediate result of the
opening of the Canal is practically a
foregone conclusion.
Considering this, we may rest as
sured that it is the intention of the
lumber barons that the influx of for.
eign labor is to be untitled in forcing
down the standard of living among
the workers in the lumber industry
just as Oriental labor has been used
to great extent in British Columbia
The foregoing is the very best argu
ment for organizing the quarter of a
million workers in the forests and
mills of the Pacific Northwest NOW
By closing up ranks WITHOUT DE.
LAY we will be prepared to welcome
our brothers from the foreign shores
in manner worthy of brothers. We
will be enabled to absorb them into
our organization and instead of bring
ing all of us down to the level of the
slaves of the hellholes of the Eastern
cities they will help us maintain, OF
even raise our present standard.
But we have no time to lose. We
must begin NOW. And we must lay
aside any pet theories or prejudices
and make up our minds to get togeth
er during the next year. We can dc
| it if we get to work.
If we fail now it will take years
yes, perhaps decades, to win what we
can attain by just little teamwork
during the next few months. If we
fail, not alone those engaged in the
lumber industry, but all other work
ers, including those now organized
will feel the result, and feel it keenly
THINK, CONSIDER, REFLECT
AND GET BUSY.
In the next weeks articles some OF
the obstacles, which probably must be
encountered within labor's own ranks
in furthering the work of organizing
the lumber workers, will be discussed

The French in Mexico
By REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

Macmillan to his death and his
consort, broken-hearted, back to
Europe
The Assembly of Notables" did
not amount to as much as it's
members thought it did; and the
Old World was given its first
practical demonstration of the
power of the Monroe Doctrine;"
a doctrine which, it would seem,
Napoleon the Third had not look
ed upon with becoming serious
ness.
To this day the Macmillan epi-
sode remains a puzzle to the naaa-
dent or n:syory.
Some say that the idea of a
great imperial Latin State side by
side with the great English
speaking communities furnished
the fascination upon Napoleon's
mind which was responsible for
the business; while others hold
that the pursuit of the bubble
was a necessity imposed upon the
Emperor by the exigencies of his
situation.

TT was just so years ago-June
10, 1S63-that the soldiers of
Napoleon the Third, under the
command of General Forey, with
drums a-beating and bunting
a-fiuttering, marched into MeXi-
co, to establish upon these West
ern shores a great Latin king
dom.
Almost Immediately after the
entry of the French, and doubt
less by pre-arranged program,
there was a meeting of the As
sembly of Notables," at which it
was decided, with all due solem-
nifty, that there should be estab-
Hshed a monarchy with the City
of Mexico as its capital and with
Macmillan, Archduke of Austria,
as Emperor.
on June u, 1864. Macmillan
and his wife entered the city of
the Aztecs as Emperor and En-
press, and three years later, June
10, 1867, the farce ended with the
crack Of the rifles which sent
