Wisdom Extraordinary.
The following very luminous edi—
torial graced the pages of the Call
last evening: “The recognition of
both parties in the distribution of
government patronage is precisely
what the reformers have been asking
for, and it is in accordance with a
policy that. tiecretary Endicott adopt—
ed more than two years ago in deal
ing with the extensive patronage of
the various branches of the war de~
partment."
We read it over several times and
felt refreshed. We were not able to
fathom its depths, however, for its
wisdom was too deep for us. Who
are the “Reformers” who have been
asking for the "recognition of both
political parties in the distribution
lof government patronage?” Surely
itho Call is not among the number,
‘for‘we remember how, just a few
1 weeks ago. ithowled itself hoarse be
;cause Ned Brown was copying the
i tax roll and Phonnie Learned was
ipost oflice clerk.
l Surely the reformer was not Gro~
Ever Cleveland, for the only way he
Ihas recognized both parties was to
turn out all the republicans and turn
in all the democrats. That is doubt
less the recognition of both political
parties that suits the Call.
‘ This, howwer, was the plea of the
mngwnmp papers four years ago.
Possibly our mugwump friend, the
Call. has decided to raise the old cry
so as to get some plea for an ap
pointment by President Harrison
next season. It would be so bad
if the n-furm administration had
‘onlg rz-nu-mbered its pledges to said
‘mllnguups and have given a~ few of
ltheiu cilia-S, but it did not, and so
the party of rr-form can hardly be
credited with a sincere desire to ad~
[ vance that idea.

Build.
The urgent need of more buildings
of every kind is pressing upon our
people. Yesterday a lady came
down from Sprague and desired to
locate in business here. She could
find no room even to lodge and says
she must go away immediately.
Scores of people are coming and go.

only get houses. We must have
more lumber and more carpenters.
Don’t wait until spring. That will
be too late. Build now. If our 10-
cal mill can not do the work of cut
ting the lumber, our builders will
have to pool their needs and buy a
ship-load of lumber at some of the
big mills on the Sound. We must
have more houses at any cost.
By reference to another column
the coroner’s verdict on the death of
Davenport can be seen. The docu
mentisa manly one and lays the
blame of the affair partly where it
belongs. The man was not really
responsible for his own death. for he
was too drunk-to take care of him~
self at the time. His companions
were not fully to blame either, for;
they were too drunk to take care of
themselves—wt anybody else. Now
all these men were responsible for
being drunk. They deliberately put
themselves into such a condition
that they could not take care of
themselves. But were they wholly
to blame for this? Is it not unlaw
ful to sell whiskey to intoxicated
men? Is it not unlawful toallow
drunken. quarreling men on the
streets? Is the police of Port Town
send wholly lilanmlees in this afi'air?
’l‘hepmof, conclusively, is that a
quarrel had occurrml on the dock.
Nuwwlu-re was the police? Why
was not these men, who Were not ca
pable of caring for themselv-s, cured
furhy the guardians of the city?
We think that the ufi'uir should pro

Republican Prospects.
iiwry indication is in favor of a
bwi-eiling republican Victory on the

lzniian'i; but it “.1113! he remembered
Xlztil the [)I)>llil)l] of the Democrats
and Republicans with regard to these
status is very ditferent. The Repub—
licans can win without New York
and the Denmeruts cannot.
This. is. the way the matter stands.
It requires 201 electoral votes to
o-lrct. Of these Cleveland may he
:n dited with 153. the vote of the
whit Sullill‘lhb‘llgll that is not at»
Sibliltt'iy certain— leaving him 4530
gut mun-where else Now if he can
carry Nuv York, with 36 vutes, he
will then have 189, or 1'). short. He
will then need Indiana, with her 15
vutes, or New Jersey with 9 and
Uninecticnt \xith 6, which would
gii‘e him 201. mm 3to spare. But
unless he can carry New York, he
can have the united vote of Indiana.
New Jersey and Connecticut without
doing him any good; for their aggre
gate vote added to the vote of the
solid South makes only 183, which is
18 short. , ~ > _
The Republicans, on the other
hand, can count with confidence on
every Northern state, oxcnpt the four
named. This glves them an aggre—
gate of 181 uluctoml votes to start
with, or 20 less Hum a majority; so
if they can curry Indiana and Con
necticut. or Indiana and New Jersey,
tlwy can win without New York, as
Indiana and New Jersey would give
thvm 2L VOIOS, nnd Indiana. and Con
noflicnt 21, where. only 20 are nmd~
ed.
But llJu chances are i-xm-llont for
carrying New York, in which ovunt
the vote of Indiana, New Jersey and
Connecticut becomes imnmteriul. so
far as the general result is concern
ed. Evi-ry day makes it more and
more certain that New York will go
ltnpublican and that Mr. Cleveland
cannot be reelected. In fact, the
probabilities are that Harrison will
carry (awry Northern State, without
exception.
And why not? The Democratic
party has seen fit to array the free»
trade. cheap labor South against the
protectionist, high-labor NortL, and
it must abide the consequences. If
thore be any sectionalism in this, let
the blame full when; it belongs, on
the mun and the party that put the
Confederate Brigadier-s into the sad~
dies and sought to permit them to
ride rough~shod over American la
bor and American industries.—S. F.
Chronicle.
Is the Duty Added to the Cost?
So the duty on blankets is a “tax.”
It is nothing of the kind, Mr. Presb
dent. A pair of five pound blankets
were recently imported at the lowest
possible cost. The statement of the
cost, duty aid, is as fullows: Cost
in Englanfflt wholesale. $4.65; duty,
$4.25; customs fees, 65 cents; total,
$9.35. If the theory is true. these
blankets ought to sell for $9.35 a
pair, but us a matter of fact Ameri
can blankets of precisely the same
weight and quality were selling at
that time for $53.20. What becomes
of the theory that the duty is added
to the cost?
A Triumphant March-
John B. Allen’s tour through the
territory resembles a. triumphant
march. Everywhere he is received
with the greatest enthusiasm. and
his splendid speeches win him votes
at every town. The Democratic
leaders are alarmed, for they have
never before had an opponent. whose
armor was so near invincible.
Representative McKinney of New
Hampshire evidently thought there
was no hereafter for the democratic
party or he would not have spoken
so freely on the subject at free trade
as he did on May 4th last. He said:
Give us a free and open market
with the world, break down the bar
riers that a false system has built
around us, go back once more to the
principles of true Democracy. As an
abstract question of right _who is

FALSE TEETH."
A prominent En lish womnn says H 9

Americans don’t like the runs: :nt

Ilut why should so many of our Women
nave false teeth ?
That is more of I. Ease! to the English.
It is quite impossi Is to account for it
except on the theory ofderanged stomach
action caused by im rudence in eating
and by want of regufir exorcise.
Both conditions are unnatural.
Catarrhal troubles everywhere irev‘ail
and end in con? and consumption,“ hich
are promoted y marl-nutrition induced
by deranged stomach action. The con
dition is a modern one, one unknown to
our ancestors who prevented the ('alfll'l'h.
cold, cough and consumption by abund
ant and regular use of what is known as
Warner’s Log Cabin cough and consump
tion remedy and Log Ca in sarsaiparills,
two old fashioned standard remedies
handed down from our ancestors, and
now exclusively put forth under the
strongest guarantees of purity and efli
cacy by the world-famed makers of War~
ner's sale cure. These two rem-dies
plentifully used as the fall and winter
seasons advance, together with an occw
ional use of “’arner’s Log (‘ahin rose
cream, to strengthen and protect the
nasal meinhranes, give a positive assur
ance of iiedoni, both from estarrli and
these dreadful and if neglected, inevita
ble consequences, pneumonia, lung
'roubles and consumption, which so gen
mlly and family prevail among our
eople.
Comrade Eli Fisher, of Salem, Henry
Co., lowa, served {our years in the late
war and contracted a disease called con
sumption by the doctOrs. He had tre~
quent hemorrhages. After using War
ner's Lo: (‘nhin cough and consumption
remedy, he says,under date of Jan. 19th,
1838: “ I do not bleed at the lungs an
more, my cough does not bother me, and
I do not have any more smothering
spells." Warner's hog Cabin rose cream
cured his wife of caturrh and she is
“sound and well.”

TWO PICTURES.
Chauncey M. Depew‘s View of Grover
Cleveland.
"I know .\lt. Cleveland very well.”
said Mr. Depew yesterday. "and like
him personally. He was a plodding
country lawyer up to the time he be~
(’.‘mm aftn't‘rlllll‘, and. like myself,
\rurltetl for corporations. He was
ten busy rolling up a small surplus
to pay nmch attention to public
athnrs. and when he accidentally bo
('ume president he took to the White
Hullht,‘ with him his Country lawyer
habits. He would give his personal
attention only to such cases as was
exited testimony. Such small matters
as foreign atl‘ztirs, finance and civil
service reform he would leave to his
secretaries. Now, on a pension claim
there was the testimony, and the
country lawyer was at home. Finul~
1y he found himself the only student
in the best free trade college in the
World, the present cabinet, with Pro—
femur Lamar as senior member of
the faculty, and all the other profes~
sore in the same class. They edu
eatetl him in the theories of John
Stuart Mill and tho Cobden Club,
till'l when he was convinced he boldly
and honestly proclaimed the fact,

Judge Nasl‘, in sentencing thei

him the industrious and honest peo~3
of Washington Territory had tired
of his class and were determined tot
make them either earn an honest
living, leave the country or serve
terms in the penitentiary. His of~
tense was one which ought to consign
him to the penitentiary for twenty
years, but the judge felt disposed to
be lenient, and would let him ofl'with
with two years. The prisoner Bar
ber‘s offense was in going from one
saw~mill to another with his hands
tied up, representing that an acci
dentin a mill had deprived him of
his hands and that Le was unable to
work. On these representations he
had solicited and secured aid. Fi—

while engineering science is compe~

"It is humiliating that we have no

“but they will come in good time.
We have a highly trained body of

Then and Now-
In a speech delivered before the
General Committee of the Tammany
Association in New York shortly after
Clem-land's nomination in 1884,
Thomas G. Grady. who is now speak
ing in Cleveland’s favor, said:
I will follow to the far end, when--
ever it may lead. the course I have
begun, because I began it for com
science‘s sake alone. If there be a
man who forgives enemies, I am one
who follows the enemy through
thick and thin, returning tire for tire.
until one or the other gow down.
The only grievance that l have
against the candidate of the National
Convention, so called. is that his ele—
vation to the Presidency would be the
:would be the greatest blight that
’could befall the Democratic party,
zfor it was the result of the schemers,
rrailroad Presidents, contractors, Stan,
‘dard Oil men and monopolists, the
men who brought about the nomin'd
tion, and against the interest; of
workingmon and henest mechanics,
the men to whom he was always op
posed, and could not be assured of a
victory. I shall speak fzom the
record, and if I fail shall 35!; to be
ostracised, not only from this organi
zation but from all respectable socie
ty, if I cannot point to corruption
lstalking to the very threshold of the
{New York State Executive Chamber
and knocking at the door, and com
ling out of the door with all that cor—
ruption sought at the expense of the
’people. If I cannot prom that bribes
that were known to fail ID the assem
ibly of 1883 were placed so near Mr.
Cleveland that if he has not the mon—
ey he can get it at any time—if I can
not prove that, then I am not the
man profess to be.”
In an interview with a, New York
Sun reporter. after Cleveland had
pocketed the bill for the annexation
of North Idaho to this Territory, Mr.
Charles S. Voorhees said:
“I am firmly of the opinion that
some personal consideration cr oth
er governed his action. The facts
are such as to almost preclude any
other supposition.”
After describing how Cleveland
shut the door in his face and ignored
his letters, Voorhees said:
"I do not hesitate to assert that,
in my judgment, is more personal
administration than Mr. Cleveland’s
never existed in this country. His
claim that in all he does he disre
gards his own personal feelings, and
is actuated solely by considerations
growing out of that ‘publie trust,’ is
so at variance with the facts, that
the marvel is that he continues his
attempt to impose it upon the put»
Ic.”
After telling how Cleveland ap~
pointed the son of Henry Ward
Beecher collector at Port Townsend,
how the senate refused to confirm
him, and how Cleveland then ap
pointed Beecher a special agent in
charge of revenue matters on Puget
Sound, Voorhees said:
"The most. unreasoning admirers
0! Mr. Cleveland will be at a loss to
find in this evidence of his peculiar
methods any application whatever
of the idea that ‘public ofice is a
public trust’; in this case he simply
treated this very importango‘public
post as pertaining to his g s and
chattles to be disposed of in settle
ment of his ante-election debts.”
Now this same Voorhees is cavort
ing around this territory seeking a
third term and bellowing as only he
fandbellow—praisea of Grover Cleve
an .
After declaring that the President
was bribed to reveal. the annexa—
tion of North fiaho, that he used
public ofiice to pay private debts,
and that bein guilty of false pre
tense. and a deliberate liar, this
errant. demagogue. crow enter and
political fraud, crawls on his belly
for a. re-election. Have the people
not had enough of such fellows!—
Times.
The tie industry has grown toenor
mous propo-tions in the timber regions
in the Northwest.and with the steady
increase in the mileage of the railrorde
of the country, is not likely to diminish
in exam The consumption of wooden
ties for new trackage and for replace—
ments is something extrnurdinary. and
thus far no substitute has been found
which promises to take tne place of the
best quality of wooden the. But com
paratively little headway has yet been
made in the method of getting ties out.
Now and then the sawed tie is encoun—
tered, but the greater part of all the
ties which go into the construction of
our railways are cut as they were out
years ago. and the sides hewn so as to
efl'ord the desired face, with an axe.
This rrquiree skill upon the part of the
woodoman, but even at the hands of the
most dett woodsxnau is a slow and tedi—
ous process. when compared with the
rapi lity with which timbers for every
other purposes are turned out. Once the
tie is cut and made marketable. it is
hauled to the nearest railroad track and
piled up, to be shipped out to rail. In
timber region- where streams are not
available this is probably the cheapest
and most expeditious method of manu
facture but a great many ties are floated
'dnwn qugiog streams to the annoyance
and disgust at the loggers, and with
more or lese loss to the makers. Theta
is now in use in some of the saw mills a
piece of machinery which ought to be a
boon to the tie makers. Primarily it
was made to accelerate and economize
lumber making where the logs run
small, but everylmdy who has ever seen
one of the machines must have been
struck with its adaptability to tie
making. Reference is made to what is
known as the Lynch siding machine.
It consists of lwu revolving wheels
faced with [min-n. which drezs the side
of the log rapidly and smoothly. Cum
pnratively little power is required and
little help to operate it. The logs need
to be got to n mill, and a siding machine
and a cut off saw would be sufficient to
do the rest. In this way a vast amount
of hand labor Would nit-Jonbtedly be
saved. and the cost of ties materially
