In taking this view ot the subject, he has shown that his political range of vision is very short and narrow. Like manv other statesmen, es pccially of the stand-pat element, cheap labor appeals to too doctor as an economic advantage. As one born, if not raised under the British flag, that esteemed gentleman is possessed of the idea that labor is ?i commodity which the buyer should have the privilege of buying in the cheapest market. This has been the accep- im Diuisii economic tucory uiiiii recent years, u is mo idea of plutocracy in this country. It is the principle the capitalists of this country have 'been contending for and arestill fighting for. tt is the old mud-sill theory of the laborers social and political status. In this country as well as in England, the laborer, is no longer recognized as a laborer only, but. as a citizen and voter also. Because the laborer has forced the issue, wo arc beginning to admit, without argument that what, in jures or degrades him as a laborer, impairs and degrades nun as a sovereign citizen. The political effort of this nation is being directed towards building' better citizens out of normal uieai and women, instead of destroying them to make cheaper labor ers for the profit of employers. Wo would say to Dr. Withycoinbe that the world is ceasing to lobk upon the laborer as a belt, wheel or rod of a machine. ITr. Withycoinbe may not know he nmv refuse to ad mit it but the Chinese agitators who came from Califor nia were possessed'of gi eater humanity niul political wis dom than he, and were"" inspired by a desire to prevent the "peonizing" of the Pacific coast, and we should honor them for their humane and heroic efforts. i 1 il. i? ?- 11i1 n -" -Yr me nine uv. linycomoe reiers to v. iiinese were plentiful all over the coast. They were not only employ ed in clearing land, but in many other oeciipsitious. T'hey were employed in mining, logging-, railroad building, fann ing, domestic service and in fact in every pursuit except perhaps flic building trades. Wherovora white man or woman went to seek labor, they had to compete with and labor by the side of the Chinese. The standard of living of the Chinese was far below that of the white citizen and he therefore could work cheaper and his wages fixed the scale, and the white man had to come down to that wage level, even though it in volved a change ot the white man's standard ot living, If Dr. "Withycoinbe knows anything of the history of mauKiuu lie ougiit to Know that when tiie laboring people of our nation arc put in competition with unlimited num bers, of laborers with a lower standard of lirinir. that such competition will be destructive of the superior race, lie ought also to Know that it one race is required to labor with an inferior race in morals or intellect, that the super ior race will suffer and degenerate like the poor whites of the south did from the competition of African slave labor, the effect of which is still seen in the descendants of those poor whites of the southern states. At the time the doctor refers to the'anfl-Chinesc agi tationOregon was a comparat iveiy poor state. The sons and daughters of the farmers oftciisought emplovment in the towns, on the railroads and m the mills. If the daugh icrs sought domestic had to compel ploynicnt on th ers mm irucK wniKers, ami laoorers, and the s'liue was true of other employments. The wages paid the Chinese was from one dollar to one dollar and twenty five cents a day. And their labor was efficient, equal in many occu pations to white labor. Jiut the people of this coast rebelled at the dollar stand ard of living, which would be standard of living on this coast today, if not still lower, but for the efforts of the agitators so-called. Jf the Chinese should have contin ued to come to this state and clear lands, they would have entered every other employ nient they could, and 'that would have meant a Chinese standard'of living and race amalgamation with them. And for what would this price have been paid ? Por a lew more acres of forest destroyed, a lew more acres in cultivation. Better far that the forest primeval should remain the home of the wild beast, than to be changed at such a cost. I Jr. Withycoinbe has probably spoken sinccrelv and honestly, but has said enough to show that his political ideas are those of the past, and not of tho present. Jle is not in sympathy with trie struggles of the laboring peo ple of the world for a higher standard of living for them selves and families, and a better citizenship, but rather wan uieir exploiters. iug champions deal for "(kig.ly" tunl I'iV "Kim Hock Johnnie,' two of the oin hor-i's owned by Sims ('hnndlct' Wild Wet I Show.
