SATURDAY MAY 5, 1894
COXETISM.
The Industrial army have arrived in
Washington, and are camped ou the
outskirts of the city. . Different con
; tinpents of the same organisation are
pressing forward as rapidly as possible,
and their numbers are constantly in
creasing;. It cannot be expected that
these men will accomplish any resale
- oj personally surrounding the capital
and demanding the enactment of wr
tain laws. It was an ill-advised move
" ment from the begining, and if there
had not been such publicity given to
Gen. Goxey and his lieutenants the
army would never have assumed the
proportions it has. There is no a
- nying the fact that the "commonweals'
are more popular to day than they were
a month ago, and this is evidently the
. result of the free advertising they have
received from the daily press. The
"' riuhtof netition is a sacred one with
- 3 '
"every member of the "Amlo-Sxon
race; but in the history of free institu
tions there .has never been anything
similar to the plan now being carried
into execution by the thousands of on
: armed, peaceable men, marching to
Washington to present their grievances
directly to the president and to con
gress now in session. There is not the
least hope of this scheme being suc
cessful in anv way; but it is a matter
of regret to every lover of American
institutions that circumstances exist
in this country, teeming with natural
wealth, that make such a movement
possible. It . makes emphatic certain
truths that would not have' been ao
knowledged by the most pessimistic a
few years ago, and foremost among
these are that distress is widespread
and that the people, who constitute
the foundation of the fabric of free
governments, have little confidence in
' those whom they haye sent to Wash-
ington.
There is no use in attempting to
' stamp out the agitation by method
that would only be sanctioned in Russia
or other despotio countries. This will
only increase the evil and make it
. more difficult to combat. The mem
bers of this so-called industrial army
are not all tramps or vicious men; but
in some cases haye been recruited from
the ranks of mechanics and even the
Drofessions are represented. in no
a
instance, io their journey through the
country, have they been guilty of any
act of violence, except in forcibly tak
ing possession of trains. This is re
markable considering the different
" classes of men who have joined the
roving bands. It is to be desired that
no serious consequences may result
from this mania, and that it may
gradually die out as it began. Violent
repression of such schemes always
' savors of persecution, and while very
few will have anv sympathy with
General Coxey and his subordinate
commanders, if they do not openly
violate the law they should not be
treated like criminals.' ' ' ,
THE IMPENDING CRISIS, ,
The question of the most gravity
that, presents itself to the public at
this time is, where will the present
agitation end? There is distress in all
portions of the country, and there is a
spirit of unrest among the people. Not
only the "industrial army" are march
ing throngh the country, but labor
strikes are prevalent in all portions of
the land. - In tho hUtory of the
nation there has never been - each a
perturbed state ef the public mind, and
the rebublic has never approached so
closely to the abyss of a labor revolu
tion. Mr. Cleveland is a man of firm
ness and decision, and will meet the
emergency bravely; but when men are
hungry and their families suffering for
the ordinary necessities of life they are
in no agreeable mood, and are difficult
to manage This, is the condition of
the people of the United States, and
firmness and leinency should be exer
cised in dealing with them . They are
not criminals to be shot down like dogs
by a cruel and heartless soldiery, and
the military should not be called upon
except there were flagrant violations
of law with which peace officer could
not contend. It may be that the ex-
citement will die out of itself; but ir-
ritants shouH not be applied if they
rr l
could possibly be avoided. Uur people 1

JUDGE BELLINGER'S DECISION
The act of Judge Bellinger, of tb
TJ. S. district court in Portland, in
dismissinir the "industrials" af:er giv-
th - -o,;mn-l .nd thev had

There is no question that they were
guilty of a violation of law in taking
possession of the locomotive at Trout-
dale, and using it as if it were their
own property. But, if the object of
punishment is reformation aud not re
venge, imprisonment might not have
been beneficial to these deluded crea
tures They were ctiminals in tbo
sense of doin that which was prohib
ited bv law: but not iu tba decree of
taoae who bteal to gratify personal de
sire or to acquire advantages over their
neighbors. . The question may be
raiied by casuisia wueiher courts have
any right to make diucriiuinatiou be
tween pomona who arc inherently
malicious and these who are apparent
ly made so by environment aud fuuat
icis'u. During tbeir stay io Portland
aud at Trouidale these Coxey ites had
displayed no motives to deprive othtrs
of their propt rty, aud poouensing them
selves of the engine at the latter town
was induced by their earuest desire to
reach Washington at the earliest dale.
There is uo doubt that ruaoy of tbetu
believed that the only means of relief
for the present dimreea was that advo
cated by General Coxey, and which
they were attempting to carry fully
iuto operation. The "commonweal'
idea may lack every element ofwis
dom.and we have always so considered
it; bnt this is no reason that there
should not be honest advocates of it
and honest followers of the policy
originated by the Ohio fanatic. No
tions equally ridiculous have formed
the germ of many religious denomina
tions that have become popular with
the people. For these reasons we be
lieve Judge Bellinger acted wisely in
not imposing heavy fines on these fanat-s
ical "commonweals'' or sending them
to the state's prison or different county
jails, and thus giving them the stimu
ulant of apparent perxecution to in
crease their numbers. If dreamers
and craaks are to be punished in the
penitentiaries and jails these must bel
increased largely before one half of the
guilty ones can be incarcerated. Vio
lent repression of any peaceful move
ment is oppression, and a free people
will always resent anything that savors
of tyranny..
BI-MBTALLISM.

appear strange to those who have con

this conception of the position of Mr.
Sherman and others, there is a grave
error. Those who have opposed the

"FARMING OUT" MONEY.
A Democratic cotemporary that is
n favor of free silver, publishes the
following editorially: . "If the gov
ernment should farm out the flour
grinding business to a few wealthy
corporations and tax all other flour
mills out of existence, would not that
result in dear flour and cheap wheat,
tbt, same as farming out the money is
suing business to wealthy corporations
has resulted in daar money and cheap
propert? There is no more reason in
money bring scarce and dear when
property is plentiful, than that flour
hbould be scarce and dear when wheat
is Dlentiful.'" There have been two
attempts made by the commercial na
tions of the world lately to adopt bi
inetallism, and each has be n fruitless.
This trash about "farming out the
money business'' only excites ridiiute
If free coinage were in operation in
the United State the capitalists and
bankers would receive tho benefit and
the noor matt wuulJ be the loser. The
r f
gold bug would buy up bullion and
then have it coined at the mint, lie
would gain over 40 cents on every dol
lar, and his wealth would multiply in
a. much larger ratio than it does now.
The watges of the toiler would buy far
less in the market than it does now,
aud there would be no increase in his
pay. Democrats mor Populists cannot
legislate men rich or poor, and it is
useless to make the attempt. The ex
perience of the most successful nations
in modern times has demonstrated that
the present monetary system is safe,
and there is no necessity for aoy new
plan to be adopted:

List Monday night was one of ter
ror in Portland, and, after the "com-
monwealers" had been discharged, 1
fully 3000 sympathizers .paraded the j
st reels. In this emergency tbe author-
ties telpgraplifd Gov. Pennoyer for
miicia t0 ba placed in readiness to
lion wab paid to these ether than to
ead them to the people whom tbe
governor was addressing. Fortunately
tbe exigency passed without serious
consequences; but it furnished indis
putable evidence that tbe citizens ot
Portland would nave bad little or no
protection by the executive from the
mob in toe event of a riot.
Republican papers must not make
capital for the enemy in their efforts to
crush the Coxey movement. When
they state that there is no necessity for
idle men in the country, they are muk
ing good campaign capital fur Democ
racy. During the past year buudreds
of thousands of honest toilers have
been thrown out of employment, and
the waxes of others have been reduced
fully oue-half. Never in tbe history
of the country has there been such a
complete stagnation in business and
such widespread distress as have hap
pened since 1892. The principle on
which Coxey has organized his army
of the unemployed is a menace to pop
ular government, but distorting facts
will not crush tbe movement any
quicker.
President Cleveland has been the
subject of severe criticism since his in
auguration from party organs, and nas

still kept forward in the course that
he bas mapped but for himself; but if
the following excerpt from the Wash-
ingtou Independent, publisher! at Pom
eroy, and over whose columns Rev. F.
W. D. Mays presides, should reach
him, it may be doubted that his firm
attitude on public 1 questions would
still be maintained: "We can say to
the Democratic administration that if
it do not get a move on itself and
show that it intends to do something
for the people in lezislatioo better
than that abortion of a Wilson bill,
there are thousands of the old line
members of the Democratic party in
this state who will aid the Populists in
their effort for better government.

A Wreat rhrme.
Tacoma, May 3. L. C. Dillman, a
prominent business man of Spokane, is
in the city maturing a scheme whereby
he proposes to make a big stroke towards
developing Central Washington, and at
the same time offer work to all the un
employed laborers in the state. The
scheme is to dig three big irrigating
ditches, and pay the employes tbeir
board, clothing and other expenses, and
the balance of their wages in interest
bearing bonds secured by lands along
the ditches. Mr. Dillman has two asso
ciates J. M. Buckley; of Spokane, and
H. H. Smith, of this city. They have
an option on 90,000 acres of Northern
Pacilio railroad land in Central Wash
ington, and propose that the chambers
of commerce of Tacoma. Seattle and
Spokane shall each appoint one person
the six making a board of directors to
manage the company's affairs. The
company, if organized, is to contract for
the purchase of these 90,000 acres, and
at once sell enough on long installments
with a small cash payment, to lay in
sufficient tools and provisions to set the
men at work Mr. Dillman eays the
la d is to be bought by the company at
very reasonable rates. One d tea will
extend from Priest rapids toward Pros
ser Palls, on the west ide of the Colum
bia river, and water 30,000 acres ; the
second extends irom Wallula to Ains
wortb, embracing 16,000 acres, and the
mira leaves anane river near Kipan i,
at the crossing of the Union Pacifc rail
road, and traverses the Eureka flat
through 4o,000 acres.
