he should now meet in the ball will;
the veterans, who sawed the mztinn
at the peril of their liveg, under tlu
fire of this same man, when hr

If Ex-Gov. J. I’. St. John and
other prohibitioniets would let-t the
tarifl' alone, they might show some
consistency and obviate the charge
that they are disguised denim
crate. The tarifi' has nothing to do
with prohibiting the liquor traflic.
We are not during so much about
the prohibition part of their party.
The old parties will, one or both, no
oept the prohibition issue whenever
it is a leading issue in the minds ol
the people. What we are concerned
about is the false face these men
wear. They come before the coun
try with a nominal issue on prohibi
tion, but enter with all the zest pO3 ‘
sible into the discussion of the larifi
question. This is what proves tilt-m
to be democratic emissaries. We
hate an ambushed warfare. Why 15

The city of \Valln 'Walla, long
known as "The Sleeping Beauty” is
now thoroughly awake. It has been
for a long time dependent on the 0.
R. &N. Co. for transportation. Now
that city has subsidized the building
of a line from itself toWVullula via
Eureka Flat. This line is under con.
structlon and promises to be read)
to move the wheat crop by Sept. 15f.
The citizens are also considering a
bid from the Seattle, L. S. s'; E. R. 11.

paying u. reasonable equivalent there

years of hard toil tho Axons under
the management of the present odi

paying a reasonable profit on the in

of growth. We are giving stendy
employment to seven persons and
are therefore the third largest manu

we may incidentally say that there is
probably no better investment in
Port Townsend than the Axons

claimed a monopoly of patronngo or
of occupation of the field. Let any

prove true to his word and at least
"come out strong." And not a few

said:

Immigration.
Thoughtful citizens are beginning
to inquire why Chinese immigration
is alone placed under rigid restric—
tions, while the influx of all other
aliens is ermitted to continue with—
out checli), hindrance or restraint.
Not the immigration from Asia, but
the flood which has swollen to an in~
undation of aleins from Europe, is
the danger teat- now threatens our
country with the most serious conse
queuces. From a total immigration
at this port of 65,579 in 1861, and of
54,536 in 1877, the arrivals have in—
creased to over 476,000 in 1882 and
405,405 in 1887. For the quarter
ending March 315*. of the present
calendar year, 53,847 aleins landed
at Castle Garden, being 3,000 more
than the number that arrived during
the same three months of last year.
And while the number is thus dan
geroualy increasing. the character of
the foreign arrivals is manifestly de~
toriorating. Thousands of dirt shov
eling—we may almost say dirt-eating
——ltalians. and other thousands of
low-bred, low-brewed and degraded
Hungarians, have but recently swol~
len the turbid tide that is dashing
upon our shores.
The time is at hand when sober
men everywhere and especially in
Congress, must take ho d of this
question and deal with it courage~
ously and comprehensively. As we
have shown before, it is a question of
national character, national interest
and national importance. It con
cerns not alone the seaport States,
but all the States and all the Terri—
torics. ]t is strictly within the prov»
iuce of the National Legislature to
legislate upon it. for it efi'ects the
whole Union and endangers all its
institutions. That the interests and
wages of our laboring classes injuri~
ously afl'ected by imported laborers
is perfectly obvious. Not only the
wages, but .the morals, of our work
ingmen and miners are lowrred, their
political principles are to some extent
undermined and thr-ir love of country
lessened by the hordes of socialists
and semi-barbarians that are forcing
themselves upon us. Whether they
remain among our own people in a
state of race isolation or seek the el~
active franchise. they are alike dan—
gerous to the stability of the social
order. It is high time. therefore, to
restrict and restrain foreign immi
gration by law. We need and re
quire statutes of the United States
to protect our country from the in
roads of masses who have nothing in
common with ma.- America is not one
vast asylum for the lunatics or for
the paupers or the criminals of En
lrope. It is not our duty to receive
with open arms the dissenting of the
earth. We have quite enough to do
to take proper care of the foreign
l born population which we now have.

Iu counsctinn with the H. 13. enter
tainment given May lit. we may specially
mention the ice cream table vh'ch pre
sented u very attractive diaplay. The
table, cuvared with snow white linen,
was prottily arrayed with silver, crystal
and chiulware. Several vases filled with
beautiful flowers crowned the whole.
The cream was served in a most artistic
manner, and was the most popular and
a'lructive feature of the entertrinment,
asuhowu by lhe fact that its proceeds
amounted to $33.25. Beside the sauce
dishes, which nearly froze your fingers
to hold, were light woodun plates and
Japan» napkins. Much credit is due
to Mrs. Jnckmuu. who made all the cream
and presided at the table. assisted in
selling by Mrs. Hinds and the Misses
Stetson, Doyle, Vidler and Mclntyre.
