THE IMMIGRATION EVIL.
'Coxey's army has ceased to be a joke
and has become a nuisance. In turn it
will cease to become : nuisance and
become a danger. Originally it was
imply a collection of tramps; a hastily
-organized aggregation of vagrants; but
men who have heretofore been laborers
liave now begun to join the, tramp
.Jtrrny, and in the natural course of
-events they too will become train pa.
Nothing happens : without a cause,
lience there must be a cause for the vast
number of idle met). Let us lay aside
jpartv ideas and see if the reason cannot
be found, and this, too, outside of that
old pack horse, the tariff. First, a large
number of tramps can be accounted for
by the roving disposition and natural
Inclination of the person. Laziness,
lack of ' responsibilities and general
mhiftlessness furnish another quota.
These two classes will be found, have
been found in all times and under all
tdrcumstances. General prosperity
makes them more unnoticeable because
the other classes who tramp are not
brought into competition with them.
These other classes may be called tem
porary, though many of tliem become
permanently averse to work, In times
of financial depression the 'standing
industrial army" becomes enlarged by
tje addition of the other classes, those
who are ttirown out of work and who
;are more or less willing to work. Of
these classes are those who will work at
only certain occupations and those who
will not work for Jess than stated sums.
The first class, those who are tramps
from choice, who avoid work under all
circumstances, can be gotten rid of only
by a systematic supervision by the gov
eminent. The others can be gotten rid
-ofiby removing the cause. T.hut cause
is the unhampered immigration sys
tem. The number of foreigners coming
annually to the United States to remain
-varies from 500,000 to 1,200,000. . The
;former' number arrived lere in 1803,
..and nearly that number will come this
.year, despite the hard times. These
immigrants N belong to the laboring
-classes, are accustomed to low wages,
-and in consequence force the American
laborer out of his job and drive him to
.the road in search of 'another, and mak
ing him, temporarily at Jeast, a tramp.
'This country can get along with a pro
tective tariff and it can get along wilh
.out one, but it cannot prosper with a
tariff for protection to American labor!
and labor itself on the free list. When
immigration is stopped the tr.imp nui -
ance . will be under control. ' Then
there will be labor for all, and laws can
.easily be made by which all can be
made to labor.
THE IND USTRIA L A RMY.
The Portland contingent of the'. 'in
dustrial army" , left that city for the
.city's ,good Wednesday morning at 2
.o'clock, one section making an effort to
get out over he Northern and another,
numbering over 600, trying the Union
Pacific. The latter walked out as far
as rroutciaie and there tried to nag the
morning mixed train. ,The trainmen
were posted, and as the army were at
the gravel-pit instead of the. station,
pulled through at the rate f twenty
miles an hour and arrived up on time
without anv of the recruits hoardinrr It.
.Just what will become of them is bard
to say. The country through which
the Union Pacific runs is not calculated
to be a paradise for this class qf people.
;In fact, the farming country mostly
lies at some distance from the railroad.
The country cannot feed them, and
jhow they will manage to live is one of
ihose mysteries that those not of the
genus are not permitted to fathom.
Organized vagrancy is simply a multi
plication of individual vagrancy, but it
has become epidemic, and like other
icatching disorders, must run its course.
'The country will be indeed fortunate
if, like other epidemics, it does not
.claim many victims.
- A dispatch from Astoria on the23d
gays: The cannery men have almost
given up hope of a large pack of sal
mon this year. Despite the fact that
:all the conditions so far have been fa
vorable for a heavy run, fish are still
iScarce, and the average pack per can
nery is not above 3Q-cases. Since the
opening of the season, and in fact for
two weeks previously, the weather has
been all that could have been wished;
nd it was confidently expected that
the high temperature would bring the
flsh in, but the expectation failed of
realization. There has been little or no
trap fishing yet, on account of the
freshet, and until the water cleats it
would be a waste of time and money to
get the traps in readiness. It is safe to
fay that the total pack for the year will
jiot reach last year's fliru res. .
Coxey's Army is at Troutdale, wait
ing for a train to take them either way.
Friday the receiver of the Union Pa
cific, got a hinge In his back bone
knocked off and would not allow any
trains to run for fear they would be
captured. It has been raining for sev
era! days ou the mob and if the webfoot
weather holds the gang will disperse,

0 WL-DO WNY KILLFETHER.
EdKillfelher of Portia ml is by long
odds the most picturesque orator of the
state democracy. Up in The Dalles,
while the democratic c!ul3 wrangled,
in deafening din the silvery voice of
the webfoot Celt rose clear as a bell
above all the discord, and we heard
him remark that "Victory will perch
like a white-winged dove on the ban
ners of triumphant democracy from the
heaven-kissing summits of the snow
crowned Siskiyous to the dimpled
bosom of the smiling Columbia, the
grandest stream for salmon, by the
way, in the whole known universe,
where the beneficence of an All-wise
Creator hits lavished au abundance of
all good things for the man made in
His own imiige; and J. J.. Kelly will be
the cause of it." And in Portland, the
other day, he nominated a man for city
auditor who was "raised under the im
perishable shades of democracy and
trained under the invincible wing of
Tammany." , And yet his candidate
decliued. Killfether deserves a place
in congress, or at least in the Congress
ional Record.
' Pennoyt r' Opinion.
; Portland, April -21, 1894. To the
editor of the Orvgwian: Our saw mil;
firm has received the following circular
letter: . - ' "
New York, April 10, 1894.
' To Defenders, Correspondents and
Friends of Protection Iieur Sirs: Per
haps the very best evidence of the in
jurious effects of threatened free trade
is found by the actual reports of the
number of people employed at different
periods. We do not want to have the
people forget the effects of this free
trade administration. Will you kindly
give us the' average number of hands
employed by you during 1802, 1893 and
1804 to the present time? Please i'ur
uish the information upon the inclosed
card, instead or" by letter. We shall be
under additional obligations if you will
place the extra cards enclosed iu the
iiauds of friends who will give reliable
reports. Yours very truly,
W. F. .Wakeman,
General Secretary American Protective
Tariff' League.
Our friends of the American Pro
tective Tariff League are. doing good
service iu collecting these data, as they
Will furnish to the country the disas
trous consequences, of money contrac
tion and not of tariff legislation. This
country has passed through several se
vere panics, all of which resulted from
the. very same cause money contrac
tion. The panic of 1833 was caused, as
President Jackson asserted in his fare
well address, by the contraction of loans
by the old United States bank. The
panic of 1837 was the result of the
treasury specie circular of 1836, urging
fall payment for public lands to be made
" in specie. - The effort of the admitt
istration to do the business" of the coun
try with specie alone was disastrous,
and in the first year of Van Jiureu's
administration it was compelled to
issue paper money iu order to relieve
the congested business condition of the
country.' The panic of 1807, which has
been claimed as the result of the low
tariff of 1840, was also the result of
money contraction and not of tariff
legislation. George A. Groot, in a late
number of the Cleveland 1'lain Dealer,
stales the following fact, not generally
know n; On February 1,,18j7, congress
passed a law demonetizing all foreign
coins, which were until then by law
full legal-tender money. Of the $570,
000,000 of legal-teuder money that was
doing the business xf the country, it is
estimated that $200,000,000 was foreign
coin. This contraction of legal-tender
money was the direct cause of the panic
of 1857: The next great panic was that
of 1873. There were no , changes of
tariff laws then, and we had a high
protective tariff, which fact demon
strate that tariff changes do not pro
duce panics and that a protective tariff
is not a protection against them. That
panic was caused as the former ones
had been, by a money contraction.
One billiou three hundred million dol
lars of the legal-tender paper money
had been retired from circulation by
being destroyed or converted into bonds
under the funding law of 180S. ' This
contraction, together with the act of
February 12, 1873, demonetizing silver,
produced the panic of 1873. And the
panic of 1893 was also produced, like its
predecessors, by money contraction
and not by Tariff changes. The busi
ness of the country was confined alone
to gold, .congress having given to
money lenders the right to dishonor
all other money. ; The election of Cleve
land, the biggest gold bug in the coun
try except John Sherman, was a guar
autee that we would remain on a gold
basis, and that fact . served to enhance
the value of gold and to depreciate all
other values, and then when the na
tional banks, from May 1st to July
12, 1893, contracted their loans over
$136,000,000, the pani) was upon us in
full force and with most disastrous
consequences. The protective tariff
league is doing the country good ser
vice in collecting these statistics, but it
will do the country most incalculable
injury if it diverts the attention of the
people from the real producing cause of
the panic of the past year and of the
existing depression,
Sylvester Pennoyer.
The Portland democrats have nnm.
inated R. H. Iuman for mayor, and at
the same time managed a fusion with
the populists.
The Oregon republicans have nom
inated Hermann and Ellis, both silver
men, for congress, and have nominated
a legislative ticket in the interests of
Dolph for senator, who is a gold bug.
According to this, on the silver ques
tion the party has no opinion what
over. -
No Clfmd Without Ilnin. ' ',
A very curio.us fact is that a cloud
is always raining. 1 Even in summer,
when the cloud over our head is
white, the drops are falling f rom it.
But they are very small, and they
evaporate before they reach the
earth. In evaporating they pass
from the cloud particle stage to the
haze particle stage, from saturation
to simple condensation, or the dry
dust particles on which tho condensa
tion takes place may be left perfectly
dry. It is a general truth that when
a cloud is formed it begins to rain.
The minute particles of water come
down in millions. The distance they
fall depends on their size. If the ail
the cloud rests on is dry and warm,
they do not get far. If it is chilly,
they collect in masses and form drops
of rain that reach the earth. Long

Why Birds Migrate.
Many tropical birds, having their
food supply continue during tho year,
never remove to another region, but
are, as the term is applied, sedentary
birds. On the other hand, some
northern species, living upon grains
and berries mainly, do not migrate.
It therefore seems indisputable that
it is the food supply which deter
mines the annual flight. The birds
which migrate are insectivorous,
either entirely or in part, and a typ
ical family is the swallow. Mrs. J.
B. Southworth in Albany Journal.
Funny Stories of Indian Students.
European history and law appear
to offer sad stumbling blocks to the
native students in the Indian colleges
and schools. In one paper the ques
tion was to explain the sentence,
"She (Queen Mary) was not only his
wife, but his friend. " The translator
made the passage to run, "She was
not only his wife, but the wife of all
his friends I" Another student de
fined Salic law as "a law in France
by which no man descended from the
female sex was to get the French
crown." The habeas corpus act was
described as a very important act
passed in 1G28. It declared, said one
student, "that the bread and wine
taken at the Lord's supper is the real
blood and body of Christ."
Another imagined the act of uni
formity to be a law "that all soldiers
6hould dress alike." Asked to ex
plain the expression "a ' sponging
house" another ventured upon the
following Wild guess, "In Ed gland
there are many people who li voby
sponging on others, so " there are
houses in which some who are too
lazy to work depend on others." The
last example is that of an embryo
political economist who on being
asked to write a note on the poor
law said: "The poor laws in 1601
were passed in Elizabeth's reign.
They were that all fires in England
were to be put out at 8 o'clock."

A Dog That Pounds at IMano. ' .
A Boston dog, a pug, sits upon a
piano stool and accompanies a rather
irregular and spasmodic song of his
owu with lively piano playing. He
hammers the keys loudly or softly
as his master calls "forte" or "piano."
This dog's performance, however,
is with direct reference to a pioce of
cake which his -master holds in his1
hand, and hS seldom takes his eye
off the cake while he is singing and
playing. It is needless to say that
there is nothing melodious about this
performance. Youth's Companion.

For Years'
Says Carrie E. Stockwell, of Chester
field, N. II., "I was afflicted with an
extremely severe pain iu tho lower part of -the
chest. The leeling was as If a ton
weight was laid
oa a spot the size
of my hand. Dur
ing the attacks, the
perspiration would
stand in drops ou
my face, and It was
agony for me to
make sufficient
effort even to whis
per. They came
suddenly, at any
hour of the day or
night, lasting Xrom
thirty minutes to
half a day, leaving as suddenly: but, for
several days after, I was quite pros
trated and sore. Sometimes the attacks
were almost daily, then less frequent. After
about four years of this suffering, I was
taken down with bilious typhoid fever, and
when I began to recover, I had the worst
attack of my old trouble I ever experienced.
At the first of the fever, my mother gave
me Ayer's Pflls, my doctor recommending
them as being bettor than anything he
could prepare. I continued taking these
Pills, and so great was the benefit derived
that during nearly thirty years I have had ,
but one attack of my former trouble, which
yielded readUy to the same remedy."

. CARE OF YOUNG COLTS.
This Is the time of the year when much loss
occurs to the farmery In the loss of young
foals.' A Canadian horse breeder of much ex
perience says: . " ' ;
Carefully watch your colt for the first ten
days, and see that its bowels act properly, as
the first ten days are the most critical in a
foa' s ex tcneo. Jf you can get them over the
first ten days tl'fty usually require very little
attention if the mare is fed Judiciously.
The mare should be fed some two or three
weeks before she is due to foal and some time
ofter soft- food, such as boiled oats, bran and
linseed that has been boiled for tw vlve hours,
o.-longer, so as to loosen the system and pro
vide a generous flow of milk. If from some
cause the mare should not nhave sufficient
milk the best substitute !s cow's milk, one
lourth water and a tablespoonful of honey to a
pint of milk. . : '
Costivencss, diarrhoea, and inflan on are
the. principal ailment a young l'oal is sub?ect
to. The two first careful treatment will
overcome; the last is, In most fatal. . '
"The following are well tried and the best
remedies that have come under my notice:
Costiveness Rectal Injections of luke-warm
water every half hour, or syrup of rhubarb
with a few drops linseed oil; dose, tablespoon
ful. Nothing acts more powerfully than in
jections, and the advantage Is they do no
harm.
Dia rru should not be stopped suddenly;
tablespoonful brandy with teaspoonful of
ti"-. ure of gentian and two tablepoonrals
lime water In a cupful linseed tea every three
hours.
Inilama on Apply blanket, thickly fold
ed and wrung out in very hot w ter; to belly;
rub the legs well; give teaspoonful laudanum
in two ounces of water. Repeat dose In two
hours if neccessary.
