THERE IS BLAME FOR BOTH.
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.

BUSINESS VICiSoiTUPES.
How ationn Have Encroached Upon
One Anotber'a Trade.
The annals of commerce are not en
tirely without a spice of romance.
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.
