The Oregonian lays the blame of strikes, such as now exist in the East, upon the leaders, such men as Debs, Sovereign, etc. "It is iD vain," it says, "after a riot has been put down by the strong arm of military power, for the officers of labor unions to disclaim all intent of such pro ceed inga and publish manifestos de nunciatory of lawlessness." What it says is in a sense true, and yet we do not think it all the truth. Every strike brings to the front leaders, men who are honest and conscientious in their desire to keep within the law; men whose in terests are with the strikers, and who vainly undertake, while uniting with them for a common object, to re strain them from acts of violence. It is not all the truth in another sense. The employer who puts wages down to such a point that the laboier can barely exist upon them, has as much to do, or more, with the ultimate bloodshed resulting from the mad acts of starving and riotous men, as the men themselves, for they create the condition that drives the hopeless and hungry laborer into using force. We realize the sharp competition that compels capital to curtail its outlay, but surely no sane man , will say that the total loss from this com petition, the total burden, of cheap prices, should fall upon the side of labor. Besides, it might be affirmed, -we think, truthfully that the coal operators themselves secretly en . ccurage striking. It invariably fol lows that labor loses, and it also fol lows that the coal operators win. A dollar or a dollar and a half a ton rise in the price of coal, caused by the strike, means millions in clean profit. It means also the closing down of the mines, so that the opera tors are at no expen&e, while the stock on hand is consumed. By the time this is done the miners are starved or shot mto submission, and with perhaps just enough concession to permit them to eke out an exist ence, the mines are agpin opened, and there is a brisk demand for coal for quite a long time at enhanced prices, of which, unfortunately, labor does not get its share. There are some crimes worse than the shedding of blood, and the mine operators who make additional profit out of the strikes which his acts com pel, is a greater criminal than the starving and irresponsible miner. A CRAZY RUSH. ' The steamer Queen arrived at Ta ootna Monday night with 200 re turning excursionists, but no miners. Her officers report that the mounted police of the Northwest territory are competing all who have not a year's provisions to turn back. They fur ther state that there are 200 miners at Skaguay, and that but few who went up two weeks before had gotten across the mountain, and that a great many would not get across this sea son. Men can pack but seventy-five founds and the round trip is seventy two miles. Yet on top of this hundreds are going yet this fall. The Willamette will sail from Seattle Thursday with 800 passengers and 300 horses. The Al-Ki sailed Monday with 200 peo ple. The Rapid Transit carried up 268 horses Tuesday, and the George E. Starr sailed the same day with -100 men and as many horses. On top of this comes the statement that the City of Seattle has been chartered to take 200 Philadelphians, 200 tons of freight and two steam launches of 150 tons each, to the mouth of the Yukon. She gets $200 apiece for passengers and 1200 a ton freight, d will carry besides 150 other pas sengers. And still the craze has only begun It is safe to say that nine out of ten of those going now will not reach the Clondyke this year, but they will go to Alaska, live hard, and half of them will be ready to come borne by spring. No matter how rich the Clondyke may be, it is impossible, with the limited means of getting on to the headwaters of the Yukon, for the trip to be made. .Those going by the way of St. Michaels, and tak ing steam launches may get in, but the fellows who tackle Dyea are most of them doomed to disappointment. The New York Press says love is a disease. This may be true, but one of : its peculiarities is that it can be caught from one who hasn't it. It differs from most other contagious diseases, too, in that having it once does not prevent being inoculated with it over and over again. It gen erally runs its course in a short time if let alone, arid is not at all danger ous. local'disease and is the result of colds and sudden climatic changes.

There is a little retributive justice that savors of the novelist's art- m the way the spoiler is sometimes spoiled in busi ness relations. In an article entitled "Made in Japan," the Pall Mall Gazette shows how nations have encroached upon one another's business, and reaped1 for a time a rich, harvest, only to see the same tactics employed' by a rival people, and be forced to stand aside while tihe trade slipped from their hands into the keeping- of another na tion. In old times the Dutch, by importing English -clay, made a good profit out of imitations of Chinese porcelain, and presently the Dutch product became es tablished in the markets of the world as Delft ware. But the Dutch-man was-no more se cure in his profitable trade than- had been !his predecessor, the Chinam'an. The English potters took to copyingthe Dutch patterns, and sold- their pottery much cheaper, and the north of Eng land became headquarters for the Delft china. Again, however, the spoiler has been spoiled. Of late the Japanese have made themselves masters of t'ae art of repro ducing the patterns' best. Hked in Erg la ndi, and lravenegunito encroach on the domain long monopolized" by the Eng lish potter. The Japanese product is finer end stronger, and above all cheap er than the best English ware, and Japan is providing- the markets with goods which were originally a Chinese monopoly. The True Remedy. W. M. Repine, editor Tiakilwa, 111., "Cheif," eaya : "We won't keep house without Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds. Ex perimented with many others, but never got the true remedy until we need Dr. King's New Diecovery. No other rem edy can take its place in our home, as in it we have certain and eure enre for Coughs, Colds, Whooping Cough, etc." It is idle to experiment with other rem edies, even if they are arged on yon as just as good aB Dr. King's New Discov ery. They are not as good, because this remedy has a record of cures and besides is guaranteed. It never fails to satisfv. Trial bottles free at Blakeley & Hongh ton'a Drng Store.
