months, and after that stm-ration.
A ,. FOREIGN STRIKE.
The practice of carrying concealed
weapons received another criticism
yesterday. We have stated dozens
of times in the course of a few years
newspaper work that the convenient
. pistol has gotten a hundred men into
trouble, where it got one out. That
was the case yesterday, and the prac
tice of carrying a pistol yesterday re
sulted in lodging one man in jail and
putting another's life in jeopardy.
With the merits of the shooting this
article has nothing to do. Opinions
may and . will vary on that subject,
but if the pistol had not been handy,
the results would not have been seri
ous. '
And yet we must confess that
there is some excuse for carrying
. concealed weapons, even though it
be against the law, and that excuse
is in the law itself. Assault and bat
tery cases are dealt with too lenient
)y. One man, because he has the
strength, beats another, and that
other, appealing to the law, finds that
the chances are even of his assailant
being acquitted, and be discovers.
also, that the jury of his assailant's
peers measures that opponent's at
tack as an assault only. The wound
ed feelings, soiled clothes and bat
tered face have not weight enough to
be classed as a battery, and the judge
in accordance with the verdict, meas
nres the damages at a nominal sum,
. say $5 to $20. Neither the judge
nor the jury own the black eye. and
swollen nose, consequently it does
not appear serious to them, but it is
an ineontrovertiblefact that when
man gets a swollen nose or a black
eye he fancies be has the biggest and
blackest specimens ever produced
He thinks he has at least a hundred
dollars' worth, and he has. Then,
instead of him getting any part of
the line, the state thinks revenge
salve enough for him, and devotes
the money to its own purposes. This
causes a good citizen to feel that the
law does not protect him, and he,
going back to a state of nat ure, de
termines to protect himself.
The Dalles has had entirely too
much of this kind of thing, and it is
to be hoped that the affair of. yester
day will serve as a warning to those
who go seeking quarrels, and also
serve to point out to those who have
the enforcement of the laws, both
judges and jurors, the necessity of
.8 wife, sure and severe punishment of
those who indulge in the luxury of
thumping someone else. There are
whole lots of American people who
do not enjoy being thrashed, and
who will defend themselves when
the law fails to protect them. Until
the laws concerning assault and bat
tery are enforced, people who are
not athletes are going to go prepared
to save themselves a beating, even if
someone else has to ornament a fun
eral procession. ,
The most emphatic assertion of
returning prosperity is contained in
a dispatch from Chester, Fa., which
says : "The employes of George C.
Hazel fc Co., manufacturers of worst-'
ed goods, have been notified that the
wages paid in 1892 will be restored
September 'Gib. There is no gain
saying that kind of a statement. . .
W. J. Jones, U. S. commissioner
to Alaska, assigned to St Michaels
in a letter dated at Dyea August 4th,
and addressed to the interior depart
ment, says that the miners are throw
ing away their packs and rushing
headlong to the mines, taking barely
enough to carry them in. This does
not correspond with later statements
; The strike in the coal mining re
gions serves to show the variegated
nature of American citizenship. The
strike is not an Arrerican institution,
nor is it one that Americans take to
kindly. Most native-born ; citizens
have been educated in' the doctrine
that an American laborer can work
at any job he can secure; and can
quit whenever and wherever be
likes. He has been taught that the
employer may hire whom he pleases,
when he pleases, and pay such wages
as he pleases, and can discharge his
employes when he sees fit to do so.
That the man with labor to sell can
not force any one to buy it, and the
man with money to buy labor with
cannot compel any one to work for
him. . That, in fact, . capital and
labor are on an equal footing with
regard to their rights and liberties.
The strike in the coal mines is not
an American strike, out a foreign
one, most of the coal miners being
Hungarians and Slavs. They were
imported by the coal operators, some
of them in violation of law, for the
reason that their labor was cheap,
and there are few, if arty, of them
now striking but that are receiving
better wages than they did before
they came to America. The trouble
is that tfiey have forced the wages of
the American miner down to a point
where he cannot exist on them.
The strike ' so far has been free
from bloodshed, and ' it is possible
that it may be ended without it, but
not probable. There is a vase cle
ment of uLeducated men, mostly of
foreign birth, engaged in the strike;
men who understand k not American
faws or the principle of American
government, and trora these the
trouble will come. The strike,
though, shows a vast number of men,
the larger portion of whom cannot
speak the English language, carrying
on a fight with American mine
owners.
HOPE'S STAR IN THE WEST.
expect. . The masses of the Spanish
people had neither the education nor
the training which would have fitted
them for self government, nor have
they now. Of course a double re
bellion, or an uprising of the Repub
licans and Car lists simultaneously,
under able leaders, would be a seri
ous menace to the present unpopular
house. ; But the Republicans never
had able . leaders, though they: had
an abundance of good talkers and
writers. In the matter of leadership
the Carlisls have always been poorly
equipped, except during their, first

SILVER IS VEAD.
Hope's star, is rising in the West;
to the discredited, villificd and lam
pooned West the East turns its ex
pectant and hopeful gaze. "The
demand for freight cars on western
roads is still larger than the supply,"
says a New York daily. ''They are
wanted to bring East the prosperity
which has not been supplied from
Washington."
All the hopeful, cheery talk now
heard in eastern financial centers
turns around the great things the
West is expected to do for the coun
try. The West is to yield enough
gold for the wants of the people ; the
West is to blockade the railroads with
its abundant crops, and thus enable
the carriers to show increased earn
ings; i he West is to send in big
orders for manufactured goods, and
thus set the idle mills a-running; the
West is to provide near and profita
ble openings for idle and timid cap
ital, and give labor and wages to the
unemployed.
It is well that the country has put
away . the delusion that prosperity
must come from above and filter
down among the people; . that the
way to bring back prosperity was to
coax the men holding the strong
boxes to bring out their money and
lend it to the farmers and manufact
urers. That way prosperity would
never have been found.
Prosperity starts from below and
works upward. It begins with the
farmer, extends from the farmer to
the country dealer, from the country
dealer to the citv merchant, and
from the city merchant to the manu
facturer. It has no other course.
Spokesman-Review.
Silyer continues to fall in price,
and a dollar now only contains forty
cents in silver, , Its end as a money
metal has come, except as it may ' be
used as a , subsidiary coin. The
writer has been a silver man, though
not a rabid one. . He has believed
that the price of silver might be
maintained at something like its coin
value. . Had the world chosen to
make the attempt and .agreed upon a
ratio, it might have been done; but
the world did - not elect to do so.
hence to discuss the ought-to-bes or
might-have-beens is simply a waste
of time. " What the : world , wants it
will have, and what it does not want
it connot be forced to take, for the
reason that it is so large that its nose
cannot be held while the dose is ad
ministered.
It is useless to cling to the idols of
Baal, for they are broken m the tem
ple, and it is folly to kick ngainst the
inevitable.' Silver is done for, and
that is ,all there is of it. ' The logic
of a Bland and the eloquence of a
Bryan , may' for a moment sway the
crowd, but against their pens mid
tongues is opposed the resistless
weight of the financial world. Silver
is dead, and the tact may as well be
acknowledged and acquiesced in.
The mourners are many, but the
funeral will go on just the same, and
those of us who felt friendly to the
white metal might as well attend the
last sad rites and get rid of the sur
plus tears.

way we feel about it.

There seems to be a general desire
to provide the Klondike miners with
everything they need. A Pittsburg
man is the latest to come to the front
with a proposition to secure places in
advance for hundreds of respectable
girls and transport thein to the gold
fields. They would be located near
each other,"so that they would have
the benefit of each other's advice and
society. Two objects, says the Pitts
burg philanthropist, would be se
cured.. The Klondikers would get
better food, and the girls, being
gathered from New England, where
the market for them is over-stocked,
would give the balance of the girls
in that country a chance and send
the stock up. ; The Pittsburg . man
would, of course, expect all money
advanced by him to be returned by
the employer "or miner who should
marry one of the girls, and would,
no doubt, also receive- a handsome
donation from the lucky fellow who
located one of them. There is no
patent on the idea, and western girls
are not prohibited from making the
venture on their own account.
Dame Nature is ic a kindly mood,
and now that the gold standard is
assured for the world, the old girl
seems to be sweating gold at every
pore. The Klondike stories are as
an Arabian Night's tale, but they are
almost equaled by those from Cali
fornia. Rich strikes are reported all
over the ' state, while here in our
grand old Oregon, without much be
ing said about it, the gold output is
being doubled. Baker county will

The decision of the supreme court
compelling the secretary of state to audit
claims against the state, is a blow to
Governor Lord, whose perquisites will
be reduced by it $1800 a year, as tbe
decision says the secretary shall draw
warrants "only for such expenditures as
are clearly authorized by the statutes."
It appears that the governor's "sal
ary" is made up of the following items :
Salary, authorized by the constitution,
$1500; prison inspector, $500; asylum
trustee, $500 ; domestic animal commis
sion, $2o0; trustee mute school, $250;
trustee reform school, $2o0; expenses
asylum trustee, $100; supervising pub
lic works, $1000. Total $4350.'
The three items, supervising public
works, -$1000; asylum trustee, $500;
prison inspector, $300, are not "plainly
authorized by statute," so it is said that
the governor will loss them unless he
consents to 'call an extra session of the
legislature to meet the requirements.
