ANkRCEY VS. LIBERTY.
The murder of President Carnot of
France has caused a thrill of horror to
pass over the entire civilized world at
the brutality of the act, and all liberty
loving people deplore the death of
i i j :

J Viewed in any light possible the deed
- nr. tnwavlfp artrl mnaf mnlininns. and
cannot be excused or palliated. If the
act was me cuioiiuuuuu ui ijiui,
must have been blind hatred that
incited it against this man of all ethers
and not a desire of greater freedom for
mankind. The French republic has
made great strides towards a perfect
government, and the executive who
now lies dead was patriotically devoted
to the betterment of the condition of
. ' . 1 ! " t 1 i. . t
the people. Free institutions has lost
a Bteadfast friend in President Carnot,
and Santo's dagger made a vacancy
-among the rulers of Europe that may
be filled by a tyrant. Anarchy is an
enemy t all forms of government.
and the presidents of republics are in
as much jeopardy as the despots of em
Dires. The spirit of hatred instilled
into the public mind by the teachings
of these enemies of mankind strikes at
any victim within reach, whether he
be pure and holy or wicked aod cruel,
With the growth of freedom there has
been an increase of the discontented
classes, and the descendants of serfs
are not satisfied with equal freedom
politically, but desire to tear down all
division walls in society or govern
ment. '
With such conditions prevailing in
an advanced stage of . civilisation one
is almost forced to the conclusion that
equal rights to all is simply a license
to the vicious and increases the dan
gers surrounding the virtuous. The
safer plan to follow would be to
restrict liberty to those who
fully understand its benefits, and are
willing for the sake of the well-being
of society to restrain all desires and
' passions within certain limits. The
anarchist and socialist are no more en
titled to freedom than the murderer
and robber, and all these classes should
be reduced to absolute subjection to
the better elements of society. This
is the only safe rule that can be fol
lowed, and it will carry out the object
of true philanthropy better than any
other.
A CAMPAIGN OF IRRIGATION
Certain western ' members of the
house of representatives, under the
inspiration and leadership ofKepre-
, sentative Sweet of Idaho, says the San
Francisco Chroniclt, have recently
held a caucus to map out a plan of
campaign on the irrigation, question,
and have resolved to spare no labor to
secure action by the present congress,
Representatives of thirteen western
states and territories met in Washing
ton this week and set matters in train
to secure from Speaker Crisp recogni
tion for the presentation of an irriga
tion bill to which the western repre
sentatives could agree. Mr. Crisp re
ceived the subcommittee favorably,
but made no definite promises.
Mr. Sweet and his co-laborers will
find that a campaign of irrigation will
have to be preceded by a campaign of
education. The east and south, and
' more particularly the east, have no
idea of what irrigation means in the
sense In which the term is used in the
west. They do not know what ' arid
publio lands are; first, because there
is comparatively no aridity in their
part of the country, and second, they
have no public land. Under such
conditions it is not unnatural that, a
. proposition to reclaim arid public
lands and make them cultivable should
fail to appeal to them.
The question is a very simple one to
those who have had any actual know!
edge of arid' lands. It is only a mat
ter of method and detail , There are
millions of acres of land which lack
only water properly applied to make
them fertile, and millions of gallons of
water running to waste every year
wmcn niigat De stored ana
applied to purposes of irrigation.
The marriage of the water to the land
is too vast an undertaking for private
enterprise. - It must be brought about
in some way through the aid and
ment, and it is for the formulation of
some practicable plan, we presume,
that Mr. Sweet, who knows the
subject, has called this caucus.
j
In the system of reclamation of arid
nnblio lands that mav be adoDted.
j .
congress should guard against the ap
propriation of such lands in vast
bodies. The government should create
homes, not land baronies or principal
ities, and it is on this account that the
press of the Pacific slope have urged
that the United States take up the
reclamation instead of committing it
to the several states and territories,
some of which would find the burden
greater than they could bear. It is
more than possible, we think, that no
effective irrigation work will be done
by the present congress, but at any
rate the seed will be sown, and before
long the demand for new lands will
become so general that congress will
be compelled, by force of public
opinion, to turn its attention to the
reclamation and irrigation of the arid
public lands.
" GOOD TIME COMING.n
A Populist paper exclaims: "It is
darkest before dawn. Things have
been going from bad to worse in these
United States for a good while, but
there is a good time coming, and the
people will prevail." " We wonder
when our esteemed cotemporary thinks
the "good time" will come. Will it
be when Sylvester Pennoyer is elected
senator from Orezon. and all the Cox-
eyites who desire may ireaa on- me,
- . . . A 1 At
grass around the capitol building in
Washington City. Or will it be post
poned until the government issues sev
eral millions of Sat money, each state
adopt 8 the initiative and referendum
as regards legislation, and every com
munity the single-tax theory. If the
people are forced to wait until these
reforms (?) take place before the "good
times" come again we believe they will
lose patience, and they will be in a
worse state after they are estab
lished than they are now. The dis
tressful condition of trade which we
have experienced, for the past two
years has been caused by the Demo
cratic party, now in power, attempting
to inaugurate new policies, and the
theories of Populists are less stable
than those entertained by Democrats.
Restore the conditions that existed
under Republican administrations, and
capital will come out from its hiding
place and factories will run on full
time and pay the old wages. Then
and not till then will good times come,
and business be flourishing and the
wage-earners happy and prosperous.
Populism, socialism and anarchy will
sink us deeper in the mud, and the
solid principles of the Republican
party can alone restore ua to a sure
footing.
TWO EVILS.
The recent assassination i,n France
and the rejoicing of anarchists in this
country over the diabolical deed em
phasizes the importance of something
being done regarding the immigration
and naturalization laws now in force.
It is a fact that nearly all those who
follow the teachings of Herr Most are
of foreign birth, and they are generally
of that undesirable class of subjects of
which every country desire to be rid.
Anarchists and socialists receive little
consideration in Europe, and are held
in detestation by their own country
men. If they enjoyed the same im
munity on the other side of the Atlan
tic as on this, they would never have
emigrated from their native land; but
for many years the United States has
been the asylum in which these politi
cal mal -contents expect to sow the
seeds of destruction and revolution.
Their teachings have borne fruit in the
Hay market massacre, and a harvest
mav be anticipated in the future with
out something is done to curtail their
power and stop them spreading broad
cast their malicious doctrines. During
the present period of business stagna
tion and financial depression the public
mind i8 more liable to be influenced by
anarchistic or socialistic ideas than
duriDg eras of prosperty, and as the
danger - becomes more imminent the
remedy should be applied as quickly
as possible. The malicious bravado
uttered by Most in reference to the
death of President Cariot will have no
effect upon the better elements of
society; but it may nerve the
vicious and needy to desperate acts.
; Theanarachi8ta now in this country
are more than are desirable for good
government and the peace and happi
ness of the people, and the gates
should be tightly closed against any
more coming. Laws against the
immigration of any of these classes
from the old countries should be passed
and rigidly enforced, and. the natural
ization of foreigners should only be
made after a long residence
and evidence of a thorough
knowledge of and sympathy with free
institutions. If politicians could not
use the refuse elements they would ex
ercise little toleration towardsthem; but
while their votes are counted the same
as others they will have the same at
traction for office-seekers. Emigration
can be restricted, and, when ic is
known that they cannot enjoy equal
rights in this country anarchists, com
munists and socialists will not look
towards America with such longing
eyes. While naturalization follows
close upon emigration political in
fluence may be exerted to keep the
gates wide open to all who seek ad
mission; but when citizenship becomes
a privilege to be acquired after long
years of residence, politicians will not
be so eager to increase the population
by every means possible.
ANARCHY'S SPAWN.
The assassination of President Car
not of France in the city of Lyons
Sunday night, has no political signifi
cance, as the act was committed by a
foreigner, who could have had little
interest in the present or any form of
government for that -country. Neither
is there auy evidence that it was the
consummation of any nihilistic plot
for the destruction of established
authority. There may be further de
velopments on the trial of the mur
derer; but at firrst blush it appears to
have been done by what is termed on
this side of the Atlantic a "crank," a
class who are very susceptible to pre
vailing agitations, and whose suacepti
bilities generally excite devilish ma
liciousness. The perturbed state of
public feeling at the close of the civil
war'caused Wilkes Booth to take the
life of the good Lincoln; Guiteau's
pistol shot at Garfield was the effect of
the prevailing political excitement
about "bossism" and "machine rule,"
and President Carnot's life was sacri
ficed to the hatred engendered in the
public mind by the teachings of the
bomb-throwers of Paris and Madrid.
Italians are very crafty in disposition,
and for centuries some of them hare
excelled as assassins by reason of
their subtlety, treachery, cruelty and
use of the stiletto. If the mur
der of Carnot had been planned
better instrument could not
have been chosen than he who
plunged his knife into tho breast of
the president. All nations will con
demn the deed as most diabolical, for
President Carnot was a statesman and
a patriot, and France never had a
better or abler executive since the
downfall of the empire under Napo
leon III,
RAILROAD MATTERS.
An order has been received at the
Union Pacific office in Portland from
the headquarters in Omaha directing
that all motive power belonging to
that company be returned east, and
that the engines owned by the O. R.
ik N. Co. would be returned to this
division. What this means is not
known at present, and it may be that
the Oregon company will apply for a
separate receivership. The way the
Union Pacific managers have con
ducted railroad affairs in this state has
not been agreeable to the people, and
if the lease could end it would be very
satisfactory. A change of receivers
mav make little difference, as eastern
men do not appear to understand how
to manage Pacific coast railroads.
If receivers were appoiated who
were acquainted with the situation
railroad matters in the northwest
might be managed more in harmony
with the best interests of the coun
try, and bo made great factors in
its devplopm?nt. If the present
wrecked condition of the road down
the Columbia will work a change in
the macagement, the flood suffered
during the last few weeks would not
have been wholly disastrous.
PATERNALISM.
The Democratic papers that are sup
porting the administration are attempt
ing to combat the argument that the
income tux is a paternalism of govern
meut, and to this theory the party has
always been strongly antagonistic. Of
course anincome tax is only a step in
the direction; but after it is in operation,
the next move will be for the control
of the rail ways and telegraphs to be
transferred to the authorities at Wash
ington City, and then it will not be
long before citizenship in this repub
lic will be si m ply a wheel in the great
machine and individuality will be
obliterated. If Democracy means the
rule of the people, it cannot be con
sistent and endorse a strong centrali
zation of power. With many is a well
grounded complaint that the govern
ment is too far removed from the ppo
pie, and they should be jealous of any
movement that would deprive them of
their liberties. The tender care of a
father and mother is very necessary
for the infant, but in political affairs
the citizen desires to think and act for
himself, and not to occupy the unen
viable position of being an inanimate
portion of machinery that only moves
when acted upon and possessed of no
power of volition of itself.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
The . national Republican league
convention, now in session in Denver,
Colo., has adopted bi-metallic and wo -man
suffrage planks, the latter ss a
matter of education.
The gold reserye in the treasury is
decreasing daily, and Democracy ap
pears to be powerless to stop the nut
flow. Four years of Democratic rule
will be-enough for the countr,for the
next half-century.
David B. Hill says an income tax
is not Democratic, and Wilson and
Cleveland think it is. Tammany Democ
racy is far different from the lately
improved article, of- which Cleveland
and Gresbam own the patent.
The Oregon senate will not have a
solitary Democratic member, the only
one elected having been counted out
in the revised returns. There will be
clear sailing for Republicans in the
next legislature, and the party can
make histerv for itself if- it is so in
clined. -
A Democratic exchange, becoming
weary of writing editorials descriptive
of Republican victories and assigning
reasons therefor, devotes a column in
a recent issue to "Sunday Schools."
This is more interesting reading mat
ter than articles on "free trade" and
the "robber tariff."
Too severe censure cannot be given
to a Ben a tor, a member of the higher
branco of the national legislature,
speculating in securities about to be
effected by hi vote. The New York
World is correct when it says that if
there is no law to punish senators
guilty of such action the U. S. senate
is a purchasable body, and tbe sooner
the fact is known tbe better.
It is hut natural that a people, easily
excited under ordinary circumstances,
should so keenly feel the blow that
struck down their beloved president
that riots should ensue and attempts
be made to wreck vengeance upon the
countrymen of the murderer. This has
happened in France since the death of
President Carnot; but the police sys
tem is so perfect that in nearly every
instance the mobs have been dispersed
and properly and life protected.
Wall street is comiog to the aid of
the administration in replenishing the
gold reserve in the public treasury, and
they will be no losers by the operation.
This is as it should be, for President
Cleveland has . always been friendly
towards the bankers of New York city,
and they should reciprocate when the
oportunity presents itself. It may be
a difficult task for tbe fifty millions of
bonds and New York brokers to stop
the increasing deficit, but Democracy
is in the saddle, and it is riding after
its own fashion.
Senator Hill, of New York, is a fair
representative of what might be termed
a "simon-pure" Democrat; but there is
a wide difference between what he con
siders Democracy . and the opinions
entertained by the framers of the Wil
son bill. The fact is the party has
swung loose from its moorings and is
drifting on an unknown sea it knows
not whither. In 1896 it may unite
with the Populists or any other organ
ization that will give it the least hope
of success; but defeat is almost certain,
and the dismantled old hulk will be
driven around by adverse winds until
it strikes a rock and becomes an abso
lute wreck.
The exhibition of such bitter feelings
as was manifested last Tuesday in the
French chamber of deputies over the
choice of a candidate for the positioc
oacupied by the dead president was
verv disgraceful, and can only be ex
cused by reason of the mercurial tem
perament of the people; but sufficient
espect and sympathy should nave
been shown the honored dead and the
sorrowing members of his family to
have quieted all undue excitement at
such an impressive time.
Senator Hill, of New York, is dis
playing considerable courage in his
fight against the income tax, but it is
a forlon hope, and if pressed to a vote
the Wilson bill, with this disasterful
provision, will pass the senate. In the
discussion last Tuesday of this feature of
the bill, the taxing of state and county
bonds for revenue for tbe government
was considered of doubtful constitu
tionality, and in this view of the
matter Hill was supported by Sher
man of Ohio and Mitchell of Oregon.
The gentleman from New York has
good staying qualities, and has many
of the elements of a leader, but in tbe
present congress his kind of Democracy
is net in the ascendant.
There is what may be termed a free
silver mania pervading the west, and
Nebraska Democrats desire unlimited
coinage and so do California Republi
cans. If it continues to increase as it
has in the last two years it may con
stitute the leading issue in the cam
paign of 1806, and nothing but a
practical test will bt sufficient to stop
the people from advocating the fallacy.
Two years ago there was a reform and
free-trade craze over the country, and
tbe experiment of a change was tried.
Now the people are anxious for th
government to be restored to the old
regime under a Republican administra
tion. It will be the same result after
a trial of free silver; but it may take
bitter experience to teach Americans
that the present monetary system is
the only safe and substantial one.
It is generally conceded that the
lease of tha O. R. fe N. Co. by the
Union Pacific has terminated, or will
terminate as soon as a separate re
ceiver has been appointed, which, it is
expected, will be done on tbe 1st of
July. This will place tbe Oregon
company out of the control of the
transcontinental line, and if those
holding the first mortgage bonds buy
in the property it is hoped that a
broader policy will be pursued than
has been by the Union Pacific. There
is a large country to be developed in
Eastern Oregon, and any railroad by
constructing lines to the interior could
fully double tbe present trade. The
Dalles is favorably situated for a rail
road center, and if the managers of
the new line would pay some atten
tion to the facilities of this city in this
respect they would meet with little or
no opposition from our capitalists.
The American Railway Union's
strike against Pullman cars has been
inaugurated, and has resulted in rail
road companies refusing to transport
"trains without the sleepers could be
attached. This has caused a stoppage
of passenger traffic on nearly all the
great lines from Chicago to San Fran
CISCO, and the innocent public are
again made to suffer the consequences
of a clash between labor and capital.
It may be necessary for arbitration
to be enforced in these matters
by legislative enactments, and if
such were in operation it would
Btop many disturbances to trade. Cap
ital is selfith and so are labor organiza
tions, and when conflicts happen each
has selfish objects to be accomplished.
For the benefit of the publio genarally
the government should step in and
settle the 'differences when they are
prolonged or cause any interference
with the usual business traffic.
The rejoicing of Herr Most, Louise
Michel and other anarchists over the
assassination of President Carnot indi
cates fully the object of such beings
and the cause of their banding them
selves together into societies. They
are the enemies of the established form
of socier and existing governments,
and they carry out their aim by the
stilleto, bomb or any death-dealing
instrument that is convenient ' to use
and quick in accomplishing its ends.
They are thugs in every thing detesta
ble and. vicious that tbe name implies,
and they teach the gospel of hate and
worship a god of death and destruc
tion. 'I heir hatred extends to all in
different conditions of life from
themselves, and they should be given
as - little considraetion as tbe high
way robber or the midnight burglar.
If the penal code of the different
civilized states of the world cannot
reach these misecrants, it should be
revised, and any one guilty of such
language as is credited to the leaders
of anarchy should be deprived of per
sonal liberty in any country.
TELEGRAPHIC HEWS.
One Result of tbe Asjsass'natlOB.
Washington, June 25 William A
Stone, a member of the judiciary com
mittee, today presented tbe following
bill in tbe house which was referred to
tbe judiciary committee.
'Tbat any person or persons who shall
belong to or who shall be appointed or
designated by any society or organization

The Wound ana Bis Death.
Lyons, June 25 The president's
wound was only probed alter one hour
Then there came a rush of black blood,
The patient said.
"You hurt me; I suffer; yon bad better
eavo me."
When tbe blood was stopped the
wound was washed and cotton inserted.
Tbe doctors were hoping against hope
and dismissed evervbodv except tbe
officers. Cordials were sent for and
caffeine was injected . Oxygen wag tried.
but nothing could arrest tbe increasing
weakness. When extreme unction bad
been administrated by the archbishop of
Lyons, tbe president, who had recovered
full consciousness during his last mo
ments, said: "I see I am dene for."
His voice was low, but without tbe
slightest trace of fear of death.
".Monsieur le Jfresident," replied Dr.
Poncet, "your friends are here beside
you." -.
"Oh, 1 am very happy they are
present," said he.
These were bis last words. J

scaped From Jai.
Cobtallis. Or., June 25 Ed Scott
and Georgs Hall, who hare been in the
Benton county jail several weeks, await
ing tbe action of tbe grand jury, tbe
former on tbe charge of assault with in
tent to kill, and (he latter for burglary,
broke out about 5 o'clock tbis morning
by cutting away a portion of tbe arched

pocketknife. Tbe alarm was given by a
passer-by, and soon after tbeir departure
tbe sheriff and posse were in hot pursuit,
About 3 o'clock this afternoon, tbe fu

tbe case of Carter Harrison's murderer.
Prendergast, whose insanity case today
was fairly under way. It was freely
predicted in tbe courtroom tbat this
latest slaying of public character would
have its effects upon tbe Prendergast
iury, tbe members of which are not de
nicd newspapers, and that material
would be found in tbe person of Pren
dergast for an example to would-be
assassins. Mrs. Piendergasr, moth-r of
tne assassin, was in tbe court for tbe hrst
time since tbe murder trial closed. To
day's proceedings developed nothing
sensational.

Condolence Withheld.
San Francisco, June 26 The Ital
ians ot San Francisco do not sympathize
with France in tbe death of President
Carnot. Tonight a mass meeting of Ital
ians broke up In a riot wben expressions
of condolence were uttered by speakers.
Tbe police were called in and after a
number of beads bad been cracked, tbe
excitable Italians dispersed and France
is still without tbeir sympathy. When
the news of Carnot's assassination
reached San Francisco many Italian
citixens expressed keen regret at tba
outrage and steps were taken to have e
I mass meeting beld, at which suitable
action c uld be taken to condole with
tbe French citizens in the loss aod to de
nounce tbe assassin. Tonight Bersag
lien ball was crowded with Italians and
it soon became evident they were not
there to sympathize with France. Wben
Joseph E. Calegaiis, a prominent Italian
druggist, attempted to speak words of
condolence, be was booted and bowled
at, and then the riot began. His friends
offered support and a fight ensued. The

Blatant Most.
New Ysrk, June 26 Tbe anarchists
of tbis city met last night in Faulkha
bcr's hall. "Socialism and Anarchism"
was to have been the subject of tbe
evening, but little else was spoken of
but tbe exalted "bravery" of tbe ''mar
tyr" wbo assassinated Carnot. Tbe
leader of the communistic anarchists in
tbis city, Heir Johann Most, was located
yesterday in a saloon on Park row, wbere
be was eating bis lunch. He said:
"What do I tbink of Carnot's death?
Well. I tbink tbe bos; should bave been
stuck long aso. You don't see any
mourning band aronnd my hat, do you t
Well, neitber would you see any if tbe
whole brood of autocratic hogs were
butchered, in a heap. They ought to be
given tbeir quietus in droves of 40 and
5'). Not thai Carnot was any particular
luminous mark to aim at. He was not
exactly what one would call a despot,
but tbe big, overbearing pig scrawled
his name to every document that steeped
honest folks deeper and deeper into Slav
ery. It was just right, it was glorious, to
extinguish his life. 1 be czar s time will
come yet. it coats about $4,000,000 a
year to bedge that bog's life around with
safeguards, but with all tbe precautions
he finds every day tome such pleasant
souvenir as a death's bead painted :on his
bedcurtain, or a dagger stuck into bis
counterpane, or a miniature bomb lying
under bis bed. He's tbe bog with tbe
biggest grunt, and some day he'll have to
go like your Caroots and your other
beasts. Herr Dowe's ballets-proof coat
of mail mav not avail bim. He'll be
reached, though be sit entrenched within
a tower of steel a thousand feet in thick
ness. As for your brood of reporters, I
want to say." continued Herr Most, ia a
crescendo voice, as he rose from the table,
having finished his meal, "you are not
your own masters. I know you are the
slaves of the big combines that send you
hither and thither to do this and that.
Today you're tent to intenview anarchists
the next day a bog of a so-called states
man, and the third day you report tbe
execution of sorte murderer. But mark
you, though you are slaves, I give you
warning tbat it you do not treat us with
greater fairness than you bave been
oeinu slave or no slve you will so in
day come into contact with tbe knife';
edge, and in a way tbat will not please
you."

American Railway Union boycott of

Tbe Illinois Central, Atcbinson & To
peka, Chicago Great Western, Chicago
& Northern Pacific, West Indiana, Wis
cousin Central, Chicago & Eastern II
Iiuois, Wabsb, Grand Trunk, Monon,
aod tbe Baltimore & Ohio.
On some of these roads Pullman cars
were still being carried tonight, but tbe
strike leaders confidently asserted tbat
tomorrow wilt see tbe boycott completely
effective. Tbe men, wbo bave been
leaving slowly and in small lots, are be
gimosc to show the effects of the
American Railway Union "missionary
work, and tonight tbd boycott senti
ment was much more general and
apparent than at any previous time
An attempt was made tbis evening to
send out the St Pu! train on the Cmc
aso Great Western with a Pullman
see per. The train started out, but wben
it was found tho sleeper had bee
coupled on, a trainman pulled tbe bel
rope, and as the engineer reversed tbe
engine two men rushed to tne coupling
and in a few minutes the train bad gone,
leaving tbe Pullman in tbe depot
Crowds of strikers and sympa'h z-rs
gathered in tbe railroad yards in different
portions of tbe city and tbe police were
kept busy quelling tnerr demonstrations.
Strikers drove tbe Illinois UeDtrat em
ployes from tbe yards at Fordbam despite
the ehorts Of a detail of police, and an
additional force was sent to that pojnt
Liter in tbe evening a large crowd
gathered in tbe Western Indiaua roa

The Stalmjn Ban Increstujf.
Astoria, June 27 -Cannery men are
pretty well satisfied with tbe way salmon
have been coming in during the past
lew days, and nearly all are confident
tbat tbe pack will not b much more
than 50,000 cases below last year's fig
ures. Tbe traps have been securing large
quantities ef bluebacks and steelbeads,
in spite of the fact that tbe water is still
muddy. Usually the gillnets alone are
successful until tbe freshet season ba
'passed, and for this reasoo it is believe
these varieties of tub are runnipg in
manner which is phenomenal. Few, if
any, of the fishermen use nets witb
meshes sufficiently small to capture a fish
weighing less tban 15 pounds. It is
therefore to be expected tnat tne seines
and wheels will make large hauls from
this time on.
Ao agitation is on foot among tbe fish
ermen hero, having for its object the re
moval of all the whisky scows from tbe
river. The reason for this lies in tbe fact
tbat many of tbe fatalities that have oc
curred on the river for years past have
been tbe result of drunkenness. Tbe
scow owners, in carrying on tbeir bust
ness, anchor their floating saloons aear
tbe most popular fishing grounds, and
reap a rich harvest by exchanging cheap
whisky for salmon. In this way tbehsb
ermen wbo are addicted to drinking are
frequently without means at Ibe close ot
tbe season, if, in tbe meantime, they are
fortunate enough to escape drowning
while intoxicated.
