We believe in the dignity of Amer

Frank l’ixley, the father of the
new American party in California, is
opposed to separate action by his
party this year, and in favor of cm:-
solidation with the Republicans.
Blaine is coming home to do some
speaking for the repubncau nation

democratic paper that he ate afn-r :1
Chinese cook somewhere in Exu'upe.
Mr. Blaine propows to enter the
canvass very actively. Ho. will do
his utmost for the Harrison-Murwn

The British Hosiery Review roceu
tly said: “We venture to assert that
England will reap the largest share
of any advantages that may arise
item the adoption of the ideas now
advocated by the free trade party of
the United States.”
The chief of the forgery depart
of the democratic campaign of 1880
is said to have been promoted to he
chief of the Chinese department of
mud slingingliterature of 1888. The
Morey letter failed of its object,
however, and so will the Chinese
slandeter defeat his own purpose.
It is asserted that in Maine the
price of wool has declihed 7 cents
per wound since the discussion of
the Mills hill began. What the end
would be, no one could foretell Were
it not that a republican senate stands
xn the way ,of the consummatxon of
Cleveland’s free trade plans.
Cleveland is relying now very
much upoh his bride as a drawing
card in this campaign. He was
probably old enough when he got.
married and probably should have
married long ago. but be married too
soon to have the “brillGJ'aChßl” draw
very heavily. No doubt, however,
that. his rose is a brave woman.
Those Chicago anarchists need an.
other hanging bee. They are pesti

against the good order and happi‘

be breaking stones—every one of
them. except those that pull hemp.
The fiendish spirit that could ex~

nocent people is too mean to live in

There seems to have been great
carelessness in the transferring of
names on the city registers. Why,
when one voted last year, with a cor
rect. register they coukl be refused a
vote this year is peculiarly perplcx~
ing to answer. But so it is and it
emphasizes more fully the fa :t that
each vote-r should be required to reg
ister annually, and be given a rc-cci; t
therefor by the registrar.

And now what will the poor mug
wumps do? Cleveland has broken
every promise he evur made» for re"-
form. After incorporating in his
inaugural his decision not to run for
11 second term and own saying that
it. was dangerous to allow such a
thing, Cleveland spent three of his
four years in pulling wires for his
renmnination and forced himself on
his party. He has brokvn ovory
promise he ever made, and set. his
enthusiastie followers about. thl‘llLD
selws hoarse over his {wing a man of
destiny. This is the only thing in
his favor. Boil down five monaacd
and seven hundred columns of Don»
ocratic editorial and you only find
out that he is u man of destiny.
Our “able" journalistic neighbor
is evidently trying to render some
sort of service to the democratic par
ty by attacking tho republican prra‘l
dential nominee. In publishing the
grossly false statement, hoxwwr,
that. Gen. Harrison opposed the pros—
ent Chinese restriction law, this pol—
icy organ stooped to a course which
it would severely condemn in others
were such malicious and unjust as~
sertions made about Clevuland.
Suppose, however. while it is giv~
ing spt-cinl attention to this Chinese
question that it would exp'ain why,
when President Cleveland was urged
to appoint: a California man as Con~
sul General for China. he refused
and appointed an Eastern man, for
the reason, as be publicly alleged at
the time, and subsoquently stated in
a message to congress, that Pacific
coast people were unfit by Maison of I
“ignorance and prvjutlico” to tleuli
fairly with tho Chinese problem (?). 1

glish victory—and justly 50. Four

The English press is thoroforo
justified in rejoicing over the candi

staunch a friend to England. It has
been quick to see that L 0 is in many
sunscs an English candidate. The
course he has pursued in regard to

Englishmen of all parties unite. in

the safety of England at the erpvnso

i There is, {ht-refute. good and still}
icient reason Why Englishmen should
irejoico uVul‘ the prospect, of Mr.

This sums up the situation so far as
England is concerned. She sees in
Grover Cloveldnd uehampion of a
policy. which, if successfuliy carried
out, will confer upon her great hon

Capt. Jumvbs is thinking of putting ‘
an auxiliary engine and propelln-r in l
his vessels. All these Pacrtic pro-l
ceodings have been sharply watched}
by the members of the halibut com
panies hem. Year after yran the
leatchof halibut has become smaller.
fl'essels have'been- compelled to go
[farther and farther in search of them
in dangerous seas.
When,- therefore, Jacobs developed
the. teeming Pacific. new fields were
opened. A trip of halibut caught 700
to 1000 miles away from port on the
Atlantic cannot under the most fav
orable conditions reach this port in
side of seven or eight days, and most
frequently two weeks are consumed
in getting it to market. Added to
this is the time consumed in distri
bution to the consumer, and this fresh
fish is from three to seven weeks out
of water. It is possible now to put
fish in New York from Seattle within
a week. The companies here hays or
ganized a complete system of distri
bution all over the United States,
and control this last branch of the
business; and when this new field was
opened it. boded no good to them.
When Captain Jacobs was on his
way home, at. Chicago and other
points he made arrangements with
several parties, who promised to take
all the fish he would send them.
Fortifications Upon Puget Sound.
At last the report. relative to forti—
fications upon Puget Sound, called
for by a resolution of the senate
passed s‘ome time ag », has made its
appearance. It. is accompanied by a
letter from Gen. Duane, chief of the
corps of engineers, which discusses
the proposition in an intelligent man»
her and is worthy of consideration
at the hands of the people of VVash
ington territory. Gen. Duane says:
"The fortification of the waters of
northwest Washington territory as~
sumes difl'erint phases according as
a naval station with yards and docks
be there established or not, and if so
established. the details of that for-ti -
ficstion will be influenced by the lo—
cation of the station, and in so far
cannot be determined until the site
is desided upon. The naval station
aside, there are now points of com
mercial importance upon the waters
of Puget Sound to be defended, and
these points will increase in number
and importance. In advance of do~
cision by proper authority as to the
location of the naval station. it can
only be sniol here that it will simpli—
fy tne question to have it so located
that the defense of the cities and ‘
towns on the Sound will also defend
the station. This is stated not as:
deterdining the question, but. as one 1
item worthy of consideration in that‘
decision. Not only the location of i
the station, but‘the importance which
it shall have and the strength of the
naval establishment connected there
with and «elated thereto have influ~
eiice on the fortifications of these
waters.
“The entrance to Admirality inlet
' is some seventysfive miles from the

through a strait twelve miles and
‘ less in width, the entrance of which

In case we posess a naval strength,
