II. ItYAKS -UIiAKE It. IRVINE Editor Manager. THE TItUhl'S. One of the most outspoken and earnest articles upon the subject of ;'trusts" appears in tho editorial olums of that 'excellent paper, the Prairio Farmer, of Chicago, it says that "the modern trust is a hydra- headed monster. Its province is to wreck railroads, combine to place a fictitious price upon any article of value, to qrowd qut competitors by driving out all but these engaged in tho conspiracy out of tho trade, and then fix prices td fcuit the greed of tho principals. The trust is, in fact, a conspiracy to illegally and outrageously tax every purchaser of tho goods Qr com modities it represents. "With pools, syndicates, trusts (?), whatever they may call themselves, whether tho commbdlty be coal, iron, salt, sugar, or what not, the aim is not to put fictitious and outrageous profits into the gaping and capacious pockets of tho unscrupulous organizers. The minions of trusts, syndicates and pools, and even some of the principals themselves, are found 'in tho senate and house of representa tives of tho United States and also in state legislatures. Are such peo ple baft, to trust? Being interested, are they fit lawmakers? Is not tho creative power greater than tho created? Most assuredly! Why then this twaddle that the law can not touch them? They are t'onspir atorn, robbers, enemies of tho public Welfare, and tho man or legislature who ubsumes or argues that tho law cannot reach them, Is no less dan gerous as a law-maker than tho hydra-headed trust of to-day. Tin: suggestion of Cliief of Police Mitchell in regard to tho establish .mont of a reform school is a good ono. Not only in Seattle, but, in every city of Washington Territory, there aro hoodlums who aro too youhg to b6 sent to the penitentiary but who should' not bo periiiltt6l to ho at' large. With primer effort many of thebo might bo prepared for useful citizenship. If this City or county should establish such n reformatory Institution as; Is needed, ail arrangement could probably be effected by which it would become a plttcoof eonilnemeht for incorrigible j;outh from all patts of tho territory, and eventually it would become a territorial Institution. Tho subject is oho which Bhould bo freoly dls-' ousmHlj-rrSeattlo Post. Many 1)1(1 gambling superstitions aro neen at Monto Cirlo.

THE LA1IOK QUESTION. The San Francisco Examiner pro poses solving the labor question in a practical way. It says : "The problem is simple enough. What is needed toascertaln definite ly 'the extort of the demand for whlio labor, and Co loam wherb the supply Wf whitel labor is to bo had. TheSe bdttom fads known, all that will remain.to be dono will hetbbar ry the laborers to the places where theyarc wanted. - IJeing weary of the barren discus sion now iroiim on in Boards' of fl'rjido, Trades' Unions, etc., ltpro- poses bringing tilings to a locus at, once, in the most direct and business like manner : First, then, the Examiner invites every orcliardi&t, vineyardist and hop-grower in California who has heretofore employed Chinese and who is willing to employ white men instead tho coming season, to send us his name, the number of men, he wants, when he wishes them to ar rive and how long ho wjll need them. Second, when we have thus learn ed the extent and locality of the demand, we shall call upon the city intelligence offices and other labor supply agencies of every nature to provide the men. Nothing then will be required to bring demand and supply together but labor trains at nn extremely low rate of fare. Tho Examiner if need do will sup ply these labor trains itself. They will not bo confined to San Francisco as a starting .point, but willrun from Los Angeles, Sacra mento and any other considerable place where idle and willing men may be collected." The Examiner asks the co-operation of all labor organizations in bringing about tlieso results, but if they chooso to waste their time In idle talk, it proposes to do'tho work alone. A Douglas county innu proposes another theory, which combined With tho Examiner's views, ought to be successful. All over the mountains of Oregon tire hundreds of nico garden spots, or small tracts of lands varying from one td forty acres, that would make most excel lent homes for tho poor, with plenty of wood for fuel, fodder for his Cow and good lands for his garden. Tlieso homes would bo healthful and could bo occupied when tho owner was not otherwise employed, and would be fur better than the crowded city, with its demoralizing influences and unhealthy hovels. THE SCHOOL HOOK CHANGE. Cannot our legislature do some thing to relieve the poor who aro disposed 'to educate their chllren? Already Salem has n number of children who tire deprived of Bchool privileges on account of tho expense of school books', and another doso of tho "priceless school books" is upon lis. Oregon has had more than is usual of this kind of speculation and it is about tlmo for some kind of relief to bo Oflercd. Edueatl6n must soon bo confined to a few. Showers of graylsli and reddish dust oil' tho African coast and over Southt'rn'Eufopo hilyo been known from' Holder's- time. A "blood-rain" in 1755 covered J200 square leagues of northern Italy, making a deposit an inch deep lu places ; and a dust fall pear Cape Verde, described by Dar win, wits 1000 or 1600 miles wide and reached 800 or 1000 miles from tho coast. A shower of dust uenr Lyons, In 1810, was estimated to amount to 730,000 libs., one-eighth being mlcroscoplo organisms. Tho red color Is duo to oxide of iron. The marlues from tho German gunboats seem to hnvo been worsted by Clio SnmoanB.

All the way from two to a dozen cases of smallpox are reported in Amity. From the most authentic intelligence there are two cases and they aro both under strict quaran tine. We hope and trust that the legis lative will change the law in rcgaid to the school book changes,' as this is, from a common sense standpoint, unnecessary, useless and a hardship on thousands. A Iteuiarkable Operation. When she was but four years old, the little daughter of J. B. Tlchenor and wife of tills city sustained a ser ious accident while playing with her little brother. The boy had just been presented with a toy axe and was gleefully swinging it around and chopping right and left. Just as he was bringing the weapon down his sister not noticing, ran under his arm and received the force of the blow on her head, the blade of the axe striking near her right eye and severing the muscles. After re covering from the wound Iier eye was crossed and 6 remained until a few days ago when she was brought under the treatment of the celebrat ed Drs. Darrln who in tho perform ance of a delicate surgical operation were successful in two operations in straightening tho crossed eye. Mr. Tichenor had her photograph taken before the operation and after and the change is noticed with feel ings of delighted wonderment. He says her eye Is now as straight as ever, although crossed for sevon years. The family feel grateful to tho Drs. Darrln for tho great success m their performance of the opera tion and for the good they have done. Mr. Tichenor says a recognition of their ability is due and is glad to be able to add his mite hi a testamou inl, that others m ho hnvo children or friends Buffering like misfortunes may learn of their work and receive similar cures.
