SEATTLE vs. TACOMA.
The subjoined exoerpt from the Tu.com a
Ledger prompts the v. query whether or
not the quantitative or qualitative theory
is correct as applied to votes cast for
carnival Qwens. It Is a grave
qd&tion, worthy . the brut brain
of tho editor of a dally paper in a
great city. Whether Seattle casts 1000 or
100,000 votes,' or Taooma 1001 or 100,001, is
a tbemo such as in past ages inspired
Homers to sing Iliads and other poets to
immortalize themselves in classic epic
poems. The Ledger, commeudably, let
us say, thus seriously considers the mat.
ten Read it carefully:
"Seattle has chosen a Queen for the
Elks' carnival. She received 6.891 votes.
The total of votes was 11,110. Last year,
as. .will he remembered. Tacoma held an
Elks' carnival, and. had a Queen. The
votes on that occasion were 37,001, and
the lady chosen had 14,241 of these, the
next competitors having 10,692 and 9,339
respectively. In other words, the Seat
tle Queen had less than half the votes
given the Tacoma Queen, and the Tuco
ma Queen had mora votes than all the
candidates in Beattie combined. The en
thusiasm Indicated lasted during the
whole of the carnival, but Seattle doe
not seem to have reached he pitch."
LABOR MUST ORGANIZE.
One of the speakers at the labor rallv
In the Cordray's Theater the other night
said:
"Down through all the ramification of
life we find it moved and controlled by
organization."
It is becauoe of this truth, pertinently
uttered by this - representative of labor,
Jhat' sensible and fair-minded people
acknowledge the justice of the conten
tion of organized laborers, it is be
cause of this truth that many millions
overlook even mistakes of serious rhtr
acter. It is because of this vital neces
sity that those who are not eligible to
membership nevertheless encourage th
formation and the maintenance of labor
unions.
Let the workman stand at his doors to
guard his family, to insist that just con
ditions shall rule where is aught that
affects them. And let the worltmen hold
justice as a mantle that covers all wht :i
It be spread by righteous hands.
LET US OBLITERATE TRACY.
"The evil that men do lives after them,
the good Is oftj Interred with their bones.''
So let It not be with Tracy; for, In the
first place, there was so little of good In
the convict that the undertaker would
have difficulty In accomplishing a ru
neral; ajid, In the second place. It will be
unwise to cause the evil tq rctni.i lt.-i
vitality, by going over the subject times
Without number for i-.e non-eliflctluii of
the young. '
Let the bones He unnoticed of the man
who stirred a continent, and even rip -pledthe
sea of thought in a whole world,
because his life was forfeit, and he there
fore cared not what he did; who. wiih
animal instinct, eluded his pursucm:
whose career was black with reeking
eriowv ami to writa. about wham, ia about
as pleasant as to discuss bloody butcher

POEMS WORTH READING.
FROM "IN MEMORIAM."
ALFRED TENNYSON,
Alfred Lord Tennyson was born In Lin
colnshire in 1800. He studied at Trinity
College, where he first met his friend,
Arthur Hallam. to whom the following
poem was written. In 1S60 Tennyson mar
ried and settled st Twickenham: later
he lived at Aldworth, and finally at Far
rlngford on the Isle of Wight. He suc
ceeded Wordsworth as poet laureate in
1850, and was made a Baron In 1S84. 1(5
Is buried In the Poets' Corner at West
minster Abbey. Maud, "The Princess."
'Knoch Arden ana "jayiis of the King '
are his longer poems. These stanzas are
from Tennyson s great poem, "In Memo
riam": -,,
O, yet we trust thht somehow good
Will be the final goal of 111.
To pangs of nature, sins of will,
Defects 'of doubt and taints of blood;
That nothing walks' with aimless fjeet;
That not one Ufa shall be destroyed.
- Or cast as rubbish to the void.
When God hath made the pile complete;
That not a worm is cloven is vain,
J That not a moth with vain desire

The "Po'st-IntelllgenjT of last Tliura
day, July 31, contained an editorial po"
sesblng deep interest; on the subject of
"The mistakes of a Chechacft." , In it, the
writer mentioned "Chechaoos" e.nd "Sour
doughs" as terms used in the Klondike,
Perhaps some peopje will care to read of
how a chechaco becomes an old-timer or
sour-dough. It is all done In a moment.
and the transformation Is somewhat In
terestlng.
The chechaco Is a person who has re
cently gone to the Yukon country, either
to Alaska or the Klondike, and the word,
according to the best authority,, Just
grew. It has no authoriatlve etymology,
The chechaco is simply a newcomer,
tenderfoot. ( ,
We will presume that a given chechaco
haa gone into the Yukon valley, and has
landed fci Dawson. He ia a chechaco un
til the coming spring, when the ice goes
out, when he becomes an old-timer or
sour-dough, which Is the same thing.
The writer witnessed such a transforms
tlon as an Interested Spectator In Daw
son City, during the Spring of 1898, and
will never forget It.
WHAT IS AN OLD-TIMER?
The law of the North Is unwritten.
yet it Is fully as binding In this regard
as In any provided for by statute or rpyr
al decree. The social stature of a man
who had ventured into the northern
country depended on how long he had
been there,- It is merely the same law
that makes our "oldest families" seem
so important to some people, it Is nat
ural to the human to recpect perma
nency of rhnracter ob evidenced by per
manency of location. In -fact, from the
nomad to the settlement was clvlllsa
tlon's flrAt step. It Is therefore no pe
cullarity of the Klondike country that he
who was a newcomer held not the re
spect of one who had endured the dan
gers of the region during the most dan
gtrous time. Itence, it whs the ambition
of everyone, to be among the high-toned
people who were referred to In respect
ful toneo us: "Oh, he's an old-timer,
Hes been here three years. A man
who had been there four years was a
demigod, while old Jack McQuesten,
"father of the Yukon." was worshiped
ns lite divinity of the northern gold
fields. A man was an old-tlmor only
when He had passed a winter In the
ccuntry and nen the Ice go oot.
BEING MADE OVER,
go. It was a company of men who
would now be axhamed to acknowledge
how really nnxlous they were fur tho ice
In out that day early in June of 189$,
f'ir so soon as It started, they would
Join t hi- churmed circle of .loose who haj
made their Yultiiii calling and election
sure.
The entire camp was there on : tho
bunks of the Yukon River, 'which had
been rising rapidly, and would soon dis
g tge lis masses of Ice Into tho sea, leav
ing the gnu t waterway free for the pus
sage of ciaft.
All winter long the Dawson people had
stared out of their cabin windows,
through Ihe frost sparkles, at the river,
liflil in the bonds of an lio tyrant whose
domalti extended from the Bering Sea to
the tipper reaches of the mountains near
tp the divide nt Bennett Lake.
There were sober faces, .too, for the
camp was built where the waters could
eaelly sweep it away, and after an hftur's
time had gone. It Was apparent that the
old Yukon had gotten up a special en-,
hibtltion of Hood powers, to cntortain
the 40.UW chechueos who had come down
the river in ma!l boats that Spring of
1898.
THRILL OF THE MOMENT.
One who was thvre concedes that
lln-re was dough of sentiment to cause
him to experience some of those cold
chills that often crawl along the back
bone in u moment when the emotions are
allrred or when ime is catching cold.
There wo had bren. through a long win
ter, cut off from communication with all
oj. the world. Months bad gone, and. we
knew not whom of our friends death hud
elulmod. The days had been dark and
cold and dreary. There had been mo
ments when one took tight hold of soma
object anchored firmly, und wondered if
the senses .wouM leave. Sometimes the
oppression was hi avy. It was the Im-pi''Ssrrmiry-cr
RPttinir vnt or hearing rmrt
those who were out. Probably most men
who were there would refuse to acknowl
edge 'these things. Yet In soma manner
or Sthpr the some feeling took hold of
every one. Ikwas only a rnutter of how
they showed V by exhibiting emotion,
or pltniBliig Into dissipation or gaining.
It all came from the same source.
flHIND O F THE ICE MASSES.
II was almost exactly W o'clock In the
forenoon of June 8 the first signal Was
heard. Tt was a low. grinding sound.
and some oM-nmcr remarkea mar in a
few moments the prodigious masses of
Ice that hnd hehl the Yt;kon for the win
ter would be mnvlnjf towards the sea.
The sound hud escaped the ears of tho
chechacos. But. it was only a faw mo
ments litter when everyonp knew quite
distinctly that the ice hud started. It
crunched and ground piled up and rush
ed down swift placed, In rhe river, and It
was not long before the entire river was
a mass of tossitiir, eddying Hoes bound
for the ocetin of the north.
It was when that moment came In
which the old-timer heard the first sound
of moving Ice, that we graduated from
the school of the chechacos to become
degree holders In the alumni association
of Yukon old-timers or . sour-doughs.
People should have seen us during the
remainder of the summer imposing on
the chechacos and lording it over every
one who chanced rot to have ' gone
through the transformation process.

This la John J. Jackson. "
He Is a Judge- of the Federal Court of
Appeals. ji
He is the oldest Judge on Uitt'nlted
State bench.
He has ruled that the coal miners of
West Virginia are la contempt.
Here ar thingl they did:
They rented land, a mile from any
mine, and held a Meeting.
A QUIRT ORDERLY MEETING.
That was CONTEMPT,, says Ju4frs
Jackson, a CRIME against the RIGHTS
of the coal barons.
The guilty men will go to Jail.
The coai .barons evicted 28 'families.
They had, no food and no homes.
The milters' union rented ground, half
a mil from any mine, put up tents and
made a place foMhese men, and for their
starving wives and babies.
AND THAT, TOO, WAS CONTEMPT,
says Judge Jackson, a CRIME against
the RIGHTS of the coal barons.
.j
This is Mother Jones.
She is called tha "Angel of the Mines,
Judge Jackson says she must go to
jail.
What has she done
What was her CONTEMPT and what
was her CRIME against the RIGHTS
of the coal barons?
She carried FOOD to starving women
and children.
She went among the miners and spoke
words of cheer to them.
She visited their hovels and took with
her a GLEAM OF THE SUNLIGHT
OF CHARITY AND SYMPATHY.
She saw the sick and was good to the
children of the poor.
She was kind and sweet a-nd gentle
and tender.
Remember they call her the 'Angel
of the Mines."
She Is and does in her humble way
what Christ did and was In Godlike

UNIONISM.
To the Editor "Stand by the cause of
unionism," Is the cry of the working
manf Portland today, and very sensible
advice It is. Labor has one great moral
force at Its back, and that is the In
fluence -which controls and upholds the
principles ' of its unions, great as the
pppositlon has been to the combining of
the labor forces. The sentiment of an
tagonism to the trusts and combination
which oppose the worker in his demand
for fair and Just recognition is spread
ing, until he has obtained a tacit ac
knowledgement of the justice of the
cause ef unions, frum even its most Jow
erful opponents.
The prevailing sentiment ia strongly
unionistlc, though It has many, enemies,
even among laboring men and mechanics
owing to the simple fact that they have
not looked Into the motives which are
the controlling factor 'In upholding the
cause, of the laboring man.
Among the many objections to unionism
advanced by its opponents Is that it
tii-Anwrlran, and in conflict with the
lyeedom which should govern every man's
actions, and which he has a right to
maintain. This objection can be set aside
by the statement that where a body ot
men combine for their mutual Interests
and protection, they are aiding tho
greatest principle of Americanism, which
in itself .exemplifies the strength of unitv.
The Individual rights of , no man are
UUur.ecL.ur Interfered with In tin promul
gation of unionistlc doctrines, and no
reason can be adduced for the claim
that it Is trespassing on individual right.
fhe benefits to the laborer i.an easily
be estimated and shown, and the right
maintain this great moral leveller
for his own protection can be clearly
demonstrated.
In the proessiona we have the same
ontrollliiK lori es at work which ' enter
Into the organization of the laborer. Tho
legal profession maintains their bar as-
ociatlon, which binds Its members to
erAln rules and obligations. The meoi
cal have twice more stringent laws In
their application and; more autocratic In
their demands than those of their hon
ored brothers of the bar, In fact It ia :
general rule followed in all branches of
professions that certain lines must
be followed In order to uphold the high
principle which is the stna qua non of
success.
The advantages that come from union
ism are many. A fair standard of wages
has been maintained, tne shortening of
the working hours has given the toller
more time for study, more opportunity
for improving his mind, and more chance
to get acquainted With his duties as a
husband and citizen; It has given him
that vigorous activity that has made the
American worklngman and mechanic su
perior to his European competitor. It has
made him the fearless companion of
truth, justice and honor, and the foe' to)
oppression, monopoly and greed.- Stand
by the cause of unionism, maintain its
principles, uphold the sacredness of tha
trust that Is imposed upon you as a part
of the, great factor which has helped
to uplift the laborer from that condi
tion of social serfdom where he eoulA be
pointed at as "u brother to the ox."

' IRRIGATION AND IMMIGRATION
"Tha greatest need of tfceee Pacific
North western States are Irrigation and
immigration," said B. Campbell, assist
ant trafflo director of the Harrlman
railroad system, with headquarters in
Chicago. Mr. Campbell was for 'a num
ber of years a resident of Portland,
having been appointed agent of -the
Union Pacific Railroad here In 1884; was
made division freight sge'nt; subsequent
ly general freight agent of the Oregon
Railway & Navigation Company; then
trafflo manager and after that road, was
taken Into the Harrlman system he was
advanced to his present position last
January, being assistant to J. C. Stubbs,
another 'former- Pacific Coast railroad
man, SO yeara with tha Southern Pacinc
In San Francisco.
"Our company la doing - Its best tn
every way to encourage Immigration In
this direction, and tha bureau of which
Mr. McKinney Is the head intends to
canvass the matter thoroughly, espe
dally among the Eastern, Middle West
era and .Southern farmers, explaining the
advantages of this oountry In the way of
climate, fertility of soli, never-failing
crops and absence of destructive storms,
This work will be kept up for several
yeara until the country along our lines
In tha West are much more thickly
populated In fact, as long- as efforts ex.
pended are productive of the desired re
sults.
I came to the Coast on my present
trip primarily to attend the Colfax,
Wash., Joint convention of railroad men
and farmers a few days ago and will
remain until Sunday, returning direct to
Chicago."
I LIKES THE WEATHER,
"There 'should be no complaint coming
on this weather," remarked F. R. For
rest, a traveling salesman from San
Jose, Cal., who has been in the city a
few days on business. "I was sick about
this time last Summer down at Red
Bluff In the Sacramento valley, Califor
nia, where the thermometer registered
114. -In Seattle last week it got up to
96, which, together with the continuous
streams of hot air emitted from the
mouths of the majority of that town's
residents, made It decidedly disagree
able .
The great Central Railroad's prospects
of being pushed through I consider quite
good. The Goulds having bought the
Rio Grande road into Denver naturally
want to come on to the Coast, and I be
lieve they Intend to start out from the
Oregon-California-Nevada corner, build
west with one latteraj to Coos Bay,
Or., and the other through Trinity and
other minng towns In Shasta County,
Northern California, sadly In need of
railroads, on to Eureka on the Bay. From
there they own the line formerly known
as the North Coast Railroad down to
San Francisco. . I ran onto one of their
field parties in Shasta County not long
ago, and while it Is a rough country
there Is a rich mining district which is
demanding smelters and they will not
be built until there Is the establishment
of the required transportation facili
ties."
HARVEST HANDS SCARCE.
"Farmers experience great difficulty in
securing harvest hands to take care of
their drops lir my section, said State
Senator W. W. Stelwer, who is in the
it y from his home at Fossil, where he
has extensive merchandise Interests.
They are offering $2 a day and board.
Grain and fruit promise well, stock com
mands a high price and the people gen
erally are prosperous."
FULTON IN TOWN.
Charles W. Fulton of Astoria, president
of the Senate during the last session of
the Legislature and whose leglou of
friends claim that he would make him
self hear if if robed In a "United States
Senatorial toga, which they hope to
eventually place upon his shoulders, is
in the city for a short stay. He says
that business is good In Astoria, and
the salmon pack is large. Local poli
tical circles there are quiet, all Interest
being now centered In Portland, where
tha. big chiefs hold forth.
HOOD RIVER PROGRESS. ?
"The Hood River district Is destined
to become as well known a fruit section
as the Santa Clara Valley In California,"
declared R. R. Erwln, a long time real
estate and mining man who now lives at
Hood River. "The Hood River apples
have taken premiums at all of the great
international expositions ;, held the past
few years with monotonous regularity,
and ihelr position in markets far dis
tant is assured. The Hood River District
Fruit Fait; will be held October 8 to
ll of this year, and I say without; hesi
tancy that no similar exhibit could be
gotten together anywhere to excel it.
The Hood River valley is rapidly becom
ing tha Promised Land for many of the
Eastern Oregon farmers and stock rais
ers. After several years of hard work
In the fields or on the range they ac
cumulate a competency and come down
to our neighborhood, where they buy a
small place of 10, 20 or 40 acres, and set
It out to fruit. In a few years It eomes
Into bearing and life after that is easy
for the fortunate owner. A considerable
section of land suitable for fruits and
vegetables near the town of Hood River
is soon to be divided up Into smalt acre
age tracts and placed on the market.
Many Portland people are now,' coming
up to spend their summer outings In the
numerous camping places, pleasant farm
houses and hotels In different parts of
the valley."

REASON FOR THANKS.
N. more we hear of kissing bugs
As In the days gone by.
No more about the summer girl
In maudlin strains we sigh.
The song that rang with rag; time glee
Is a departed fad.
Life Isn't what It used to be
For which I'm very glad.

THE KNOCKER.
She had a litlte hammer,
She used it with a will.
She knocked at everybody
They couldn't keep her still:
She ..nocked about her neighbors
If they were friends or foea.
She -knocked about the fable.
And knocked about her clothes.
She knocked at hubby's smoking.
About his snoring, too;
She knocked about his whistling.
And so, perhaps, would you;
At last the Reaper claimed her.
Her course on earth was run;
Her husband then considered
Her knocking days were dona,
But hubby went one evening
To see a spirit show.
Where always, In th. gtoamlnf.
The spirits corn, and go.
He heard a spirit knocking
My wife," h said, "I'll bet!
Now isn't she a, wonder?
By gosh! she's knocking yet!"
