He thinks the trail prujoctod hy the

enormous uxpeuso of opening it will
deter them from Completing lht~

opened from the Sound to the mine.-3
this summer there will he a way

orthen to reach the mines than it is
now unless a trail is opened, because
the snow will be melted.
TIE shooting and murder of Chas.
DeYoung, principal proprietor of lhe
San Francisco “Chronicle,” on Fri
day last. by I. M. Kalloch, son of
Mayor Kalloch, has been generally
and justly pr.- nonnced to be the
legitimate fruitnge of the "Chroni
ole'e”_disreputal)le course. Heitrtily
as we may denounce the act of the
cowardly assassin, and much as m
mey deplore the prominence of than
rul’fianism in San Francisco, that
could rail and jeer and mock while
the dead body of even a hated indi
viduel was being moved through thr
streets, we are compelled to regard
the killing us in some degree mer
ited. The DeYoungs have all along
acted upon the policy that the pri
vate character of a public man ea
public property. The Kallochs, after
being vindicuvely assailed by the
"Chronicle," retorled by a disgusting
and debasing use of the' weapons of
that paper upon its editors—when e l
manly and dignified stand would‘
have given the lie more emphatically
than words could have done, to all
accusations raised“ There can be.

the Port Townsend editors “go for"

This ie true, and itis all very nice
for high"toned Outsiders to roll their
eyes imagintln horror over such pro
ceedings; but we‘ll wager one oi
our unproductive bed debts against
the bank ecoount of “our friend that

haugb & (70. it is certainly a cred
itabla production, although we (lo
not see how the publishers are going
to secure support. for such an expon
sivc concern, enough to make their
investment a profitable one. They
are evidently men of ability and ex—
perieuce in journalism, yet it is ob—
viuus that their “eye teeth" are not
yet cut when it comes to publishing
a paper outside of a thickly sottled
country. The paper is announced as
indopendonfin politics, and is de—
voted exclusively to developing
Washington Territory. We wish it
success.

A leather medal and a small book on
pronouncing words were also given
out as prizes. The society decided
to invite the public, promiscuously,
to its entertainment. on Monday
evening next,_when, instead of the
usual programme, there will be a
mock trial. A pleasant. time is an
