Editor Chronicle:
When we go out to observe what Prov
idence has done for the people of Wasco
county we see the hills carpeted with
the best growth of grass that has been
for years ; all kinds of stock are in good
condition on the range and no loss dur
ing the winter; the sheepmen report
one of the best lambings for years ; and
the prospect should be the most promis
ing in the history of the county. But
when we turn on the other side we meet
the face of Satan with the heinous, dis
torted face of free trade looking our in-1
dustry in the face and saying, "you must
surrender your rights in behalf of
Australian and cheap labor countries,
for the great Grover Cleveland says un
less you can compete with cheap labor
countries you must go to the wall." If
it was not for this crushing Cleveland
policy Waaco county and The Dalles
would see the brightest business season
in the history of the county. But the
people of Oregon are preparing for battle,
and when the June election is passed
the voice of the people of this great state
will show to the world the greatest re
publican majority ever cast in Oregon.
The people are all educated, standing
ready to vote for protection for American
industries, high price for wheat and
wool and something of still more impor
tance, maintenance of high wages for all
working clasees- If the voters claim the
power, then why stand back and allow
some demagogue to lead you to the polls
and make you vote to bring yon down to
the level of pauper labor of foreign land?
Now is the time to open your eyes and
say, I am an American citizen and my
vote must go this year for true American
principle first, last and all the time, and
when every man votes for his own in
terest he votes for the interest of his
neighbor, and this grand country of free
dom, that grants equal rights and suffrage
to all the greatest and grandest country
on the globe. J. C. Murphy.

THE CAPTURE.
The Commonweal Army Ban Right Into
a Trap. i
All of Arlington turned out Saturday
evening to see the commonwealers cap
tured by the Walla Walla troops. The
soldiers marched down the track a quar
ter of a mile to the lower switch, where
they were posted, a part behind a train
of empty cars on a sidetrack, and the
others behind rocks and sand dunes.
A flagman went down ' the track and
placed torpedoes on it at intervals.
About 6 o'clock the steam of the ap
proaching train was seen and the shout
went up, ?'There they come." As the
train came up it shut off steam for a.
moment, and it was expected the .army
would not run . into the trap; but in a
minute a white cloud arose from the
smokestack, then'tha whistle for the
station sounded. As the train came
nearer American flags were seen waving
from the top of the engine cab.
In a moment the red flag was wik ly
waved by the flagman, and the engineer
answered with short blasts of the whistle.
Then the torpedoes exploded in rapid
succession, and as the train slowed down
the soldiers rushed from their hiding
places and there was an ominous click
ing of gunlocks. A sargeant and three
men with loaded arms boarded the en
gine, and Engineer Ollie Barrett gladly
gave them charge of it. As the soldiers
boarded the engine, a half dozen of the
anti-workers jumped from it' with
amazing rapidity. - At the. open- side
doors of the 11 box-cars the heads of
numbers of the men were visible, and a
number were on the platforms and roof.
Not a man of them was allowed to leave
the cars. Soon the soldiers clambered
on the roofs of the cars and the captured
train was slowly pulled into the station.
As it passed the crowds of citizens, the
anti-workers repeatedly cheered. Reach
ing the station the soldiers alighted and
guarded their prisoners until Marshal
Grady arrived, at 6:30.
: Marshal Grady and Colonel Com p ton
held a short conference. Then the in
dustrials in the caboose were ordered out,
and it was searched. Marshal Grady
picked out three of its occupants as the
ringleaders and ordered them back in
the caboose, with a cavalryman at each
door. . The anti- workers were then or
dered out of the cars, stood in line and
searched by the cavalrymen. Three re
volvers and a miscellaneous collection of
butcher-knives, razors and shears were
found and confiscated. After being
searched the men were sent back in the
cars and soldiers put on guard at the
doors. . - .
Arrived at Portland, says the Ore
gonian, the captured train was side
tracked just opposite the Southern Pa
cific station on the East Side, and with
in a stone's throw of where the Calif
ornia company - of ani-workers had
pitched their camp but ten days ago.
A fresh detachment of soldiers was or
dered outj and stationed about the cars.
Then the doors were thrown open, and
the prisoners given a breath of fresh air.
Marshal Grady, at once had them "line
np" to, be counted, and to his chagrin
he found but 434, whereas the number
confined at Arlington was 507. Nearly
75 had escaped during the night, proba
bly by dropping off while the train was
in motion,. Among the missing was
"Major'? Schier.
Fifty-two of the ringleaders were con
fined in jail and 387 men were guarded
in the box cars. None of them bad lad
anything to eat since leaving Troutdale,
nearly twenty-four hours before. Sheriff

SUNSET COX KNEW HIS MAN.
How the New Yorker Limited the Time
Allowed to Jo Cannon.
Representative Cannon, of Illinois,
recently told a Washington Post man
a good story on himself. It is reminis
cent of the days when "Sunset", Cox
was in eongress. The New York rep
resentative had had some things to say
about a citizen of Mr. Cannon's state,
and the Illinois man wanted to defend
his constituent. :
"Will the gentleman from New York
yield to me?" said Mr. Cannon. .
'Certainly," said Mr. Cox. .
"For , how long?" inquired the
speaker.
"As long as the gentleman from Illi
nois will keep his hands in his
pockets," said Mr. Cox. lauehinirly.
Mr. Cannon accepted the terms and
proceeded with his remarks.' lie ut
tered just one sentence and a half, and
then his hands, which had been snugly
stuck into his pockets, came out and
were flying' through fhe air like a
couple of windmills.
"Time's up," said Mr. Cox, who knew
his man, and then Mr. Cannon sat
down.
, .Anybody who has seen Mr. Cannon
gesticulate. will appreciate the spirit
with which he tells of his first and ODly
effort to talk without the use of his
arms. ,
"HOW LICORICE 13 GROWN.
The Plant Becomes Frilly Crown In About
Four Yours. . '
As grown in Pontefract, England,
where three hundred acres are under
cultivation, the plants are grown in
rows and attain a proper size in about
four years. If allowed to grow five
years the root is tough and woody.
During the last tw9 years, the plants
being1 small, potatoes and vegetablei
can be grown -between the rows, anc
these are of a superior sort, as th
licorice ground ' is heavily manured
Thc roots extend downward from four
to six feet, and as they .are dug up by
hand the expense is quite an jtem.
The digging takes place in September.
The roots are stored in a cool, place or
packed in hand. They . are next
trimmed of all superfluous shoots and
fibers, which are ground into powder,,
while the root proper is used for its
juice. The buds and runners of the
plant are saved, as it is from these that
new roots are grown and not from
seed.
