that. is the right to ship her products

It is supposed that article 29 of

privilege was given Canada first by
article 29 of the treaty to send her
products to our ports for export.
That privilege never before existed
until congress enacted in Merch.
1873, that the right should be given
as long as the fishery articles of the

Grand Lodge session at. Spokane
Falls, Aug. 22nd to 25th. Lodges Q!
the territory were fairly well repre
sented and the session was an en
thusiastic and interesting one.
Twenty—seven lodges Were reported
in good standing with a member
ship of over a thousand. The report
of the grand treasurer showed a
small ballanco in the treasury.
Considerable important business
was transacted and arrangements}
made to make Good Templar work
still more efi'ective. G. C. T. Jonas
Burshell of Tacoma. will be em.-
ployod as organizer durihg the fall
and winter months.
The formation of a \\ orthy Grand
Lodge of North America waarec)m.-
mended. A donation cf $25 was
made to the Good Templars of West
Virginia. to assist them in their ef~
forts to secure a prohibitory coneti~
tutional amendment.
Important by-laws were adopted
and submitted to the R. W. G.
Lodge. The usual vote of thanks
Were rendered, that respecting the
.\I. E. Church (whose handsome edi
tice was used for the session) cloning
with these words: “We place on
record our great satisfaction in the
incontestible position everywhere
taken by the ofiicera and members of
the M. E. Church in the cause of
temperance.”
The project of building a tabery
nacle at the Chautaqua grounds on
K'ashon island. for the use of the
Grand Lodge and Good Templars
in general, met with hearty approval;
about SIOO dollars was subscribed at
once and arrangements made to lay
,the matter before the members of tne
‘order. In case the tabernacle is not
irendy by August 20th, 1889. the next

PICKINGS.
0. R. Simenson took a trip to Port
Townsend the first of the week. re~
turning Wednesday evening. He
says the Port of Entry is as lively a
place as he has seen in many a day.
and is of the opinion that it is del
tined to be one of the great cities of
the Northwest—Olympia Standard.
In 1880 there was no tariff on salt,
but it cost $3 a barrel, and the coo
era who made the barrels earned 9g
cents 11 day. Now with the tariff on
salt of 12 cents on the hundred
pounds, it is sold for 60 cents a bar
rel at the works. and the coopers who
make the barrels earn $9.50 a day.
There is a little tarifi' fact; but it is
solid, and weighs more than any free
trader can lift.
Captain Warren and Mr. Bosco~
witz returned from Port Townsend
lust night Marshal Aiken refused
to accept hondsifor the four schoon -
ers, stating that his instructions were
not explicit enough. He has asked
‘for further instructions from Wash
ington. This is the second time that
orders from Washington have been
ignored in this business. To say the
least it looks fishy—Victoria Times.
General Harrison assisted in fram~
ing the strongest Chinese restrictive
bill that passed the senate previous
to the present. session. and voted for
it at every opportunity. That bill
was smothered in the house for fear
Cleveland would veto it. the domo~
5 cratic press are distorting Harrison's
- record on this question in order to
5 catch the vote of laboring men. Such
. papers carefully avoid any reference
, to Cleveland's special message of
3 April 1886. which was directly in the
9 interest of the Chinese.
' Congressman O‘Neill. of the Eigth
‘ Missouri district. must realize that a
Con-:reasman’slot. like a policeman,
-' is not always a happy one. A few‘
I days ago. when the House assembled
' the gentleman from Missouri rose to
a question of privilege. He read an
article from a Washington paper
i stating that the Indianapolis colored
i convention had been organized as a
‘ deal, in return for which the Demo
, crate in the House were to vote for
the Cherokee bill. Mr. O‘Neill said
that he wanted to etanip this story in
its right color as a malicious lie. Mr.
iUwen or Indiana replied that the
'alory published was true‘ and wanted
it“ know i! O‘Neill called him a liar.
O’Neill intimated that Owen was to
be classed in that category; to which
Owen replied that he had the author~
ity of J. Milton Turner. the out for
the Cherokee bill. who statzg in his
presence that the deal had been made
to get up a convention of colored
Deinocrata‘ and that the Democrats
of the House were to pass the bill,
for which he, Turner, was to get a
fat fee. Mr. Owen added that the
statement was taken down in writing
by him at the time, and he would pro
duce it if the gentleman from Mis
souri wanted it; hut the gentleman
‘ from Missouri suddenly discovered
‘that he had business in the cloakroom
‘and, ahandoning his mention of priv
-lilege, moontinently god.
