Among the immigrants to the
Sound recently. is. an old man aged
eighty—nine. .Hc calm, frum Minno—

A republican majority of 77 has
boon figured up in the national
electoral college. It looks as though
the world ought to know by this
time what the American people
think of free trade. Our democratic
friends will hardly advocate such an
un~American policy again soon.
A little more than twentyone
years ago Alaska came into the posses
sion of the United States. The pur
chase price then seemed high to
some people. But it was a big bar
;gain. More money has come into
‘the public cofi'ers from that territory
already than was required for the
loriginal purchase.
What’s the matter with our local
Advertising Exchange? Now is the
time to get out printed matter
and advertising to influence immigra
tion for next. year. The ARGUS will
issue a special holiday edition this
year that will do credit to Port
Townsend. But. it has no ambition
for monopoly in this line, by any
‘menns.
Many of the oldest settlers at
Spokane Falls could not bring them
selves to believe that their city would
have the wonderful growth that it,
has had during the last th years.
Consequently they were backward in
investing in real estate, and have
seen men who had had experience
east in the rapidly growing cities
come in and draw the biggest prizes.
The prevalent opinion is that the
republican party has entered upon
another 100; lease of power. Among
the Dim partisan and all papers in
clined to this opinion, is the Port.-
land Juurnal of Commerce. The
Journal says, however, that Cleve
land made a good president, and
claims that "he is still the ablest and
best candidate the Dem ocruts could
have for any future nomination.”
Areal estate firm at Seattle has
nearly exhausted itself and the die
tionary in getting words to express
the tremendous greatness of Seattle
at present and her would be suprem~
acy in the future. It has not yet
been determined that Seattle will be
"The New York of the Pacific," “The
Metropolis of the Pacific” or “The
Mistress of the Pacific." "There’s
manynslip twixt the cup and the
lip." '
Prof. H. A. Ford, of Detroit. Mich.
'was one of the temperance workers
on this coast this fall. Since his re
turn borne he writes of “delightful
memories of my Puget. Sound visit,
lon the whole the most pleasant and
inspiring of my entire 9,000 mile
round; inspiring not only for the
physical grandeur of the' mountains
and the Sound, but for the moral
grandeur of the devoted work noble
men and women are doing there.” ;
The Dominion gnvvmment is con -
sidering the :ulviszsLimy of restrict

Thorn is :1 tri-fnf prumi~ing cities
on the Sound, and Port Townsend is
now recognizml us onu of the three
whurevur she is known. The Tacoma
Journal of recent date says: l’ltgvt
S Hind is a wonderful region, replete
with connnorciui and other ntihanfi
ages which challx-hg'o (fiery other
section of the Country. Three great
cities are destined to rise on the
shores of this inland sea—one at the
southern limit; another at. its north
ern limit. and another midway be
tween. The embryo of these cities
exist, to day, and are healthy in their
growth. Tacoma, Seattle and Port
Townsend are here to stay; each has
its merits and its source of support.
Inasmuch as several of the cities
on the Sound have use] Considerable
saw dust as filling in the grading of
streets, the case of East Saginaw.
Mich, may be of intorvst. Years
ago the Halelet and debris of the
mills were used in filling up the
swamps and bayous themabouts and
in leveling the unequalitien of the
streets. In every instance soil was
put on Loy, varying in depth from
one to two feet. Heavy buildings
erected on that ground stand tu-duy
as well preserved as any on the most
solid and natural earth foundations.
In the digging of serwors the fact
of transformation into_ n homogctb
eons conglomeratiuu of original soil
is disclosed. No one has ever been
able to explain or give the process
of the transformation, but it is a.
fact.
It. ie said that the Manitoba rail
road company has decided to push
on from Great Fall- to Seattle
soon. This statement coming from
inside authorities is good news for
Washington Territory and Oregon.
This part of the Pacific coast is
greatly in need of more and better
railroad facilities. A few days ago
a flooring mill at Portland received
an order from Kansas for ten cars of
flour. Although the rate from Cali
fornia is only 80 cents, from Portland
it is $1.30. The mill company of
fered to pay 51.0", but the ofi'er was
refused, and the order could not be
filled. It. is also well known that the
Inter—state commerce law has not
checked entirely discrimination on
the part of the Northern Pacific.
Atthe present time the people of
Spokane Falls are presenting their
grievances before the commission.
San Francisco has the advantage of
Portland, but Portland has the ad~
vantage of Spokane Falls.
Chas. S. Voorhees went down to—
ward political oblivion under a re.
buke that will probably last him for
some time. He entered the politics
of Washington Territory under most
favorable auspices. Talented, edu~
cated, the son of a distinguished U.
S. senator, he had everything in his
favor. Had he kept. faith with the
people regarding his promises on
the two great issues upon which he
was elected, he would have been a
power in \l ashington for many
years. But two successful elections
made him arrogant, haughty and
reckless. Then he beqjdna extreme~
ly snfc‘t‘tlic 3.2 m abusive toWard all
whi. [and to agree with him. When
he attacked the newspaper fraternity
he aroused a force that placed him
at a great disadvantage. Then, his
style of argument on the tarifi' ques
tion was an insult to the intelligence
of the people. The platform on
which he ran was in opposition to
the material Welfare of Washington
Territory. and its declarations on
statehood were so manifestly false
that they disgusted sensible people
everywhere. Seldom has a young
man started out in political life un
der such promising surroundings, or
with such splendid opportunities.
Mr. Voorhees was greatly assisted by
the fates in carving out his political
fortune. Seldom has any man of
equal intelligence made such an ir
retrievable wreck of himself in so
short a time. Mr. Voorhues will now
have abundant time in which to la
ment his mistakes. and to retluct up
on what he might have been if he
had been honest and faithful instead
of an umeli ihle demagognc.
President Harrison.
The long suspense is over. Harri
son’s majority is nmv so clearly es
tablished that lb are is no longer the
slightest doubt. He gets New York,
Indiana and California—mm! is the
next President of the Uuitud States.
1 This result was caused primunly
by democratic blunders and demo
cralic quarrels. Undoubtedly the
Cleveland-Hill quarrel in New York
had a wonderful ( fl'ect upon the vote
in that flute. Butit was the Mills
bill that cause-J such a tidal wave.
Democratic supremacy in the nation
led the aontherners to become mo:
gent. The tarifl revision which they
proposed was unjust and sectional,
and it caused a Sectional feeling
throughout the north.

Tim Campbell, the Dogberry of the

The Singapore Free Press of the

confident of winning. but he had
been the President’s nearest friend
and largely responsible for the tariff

only one o f the democratic leaders in
the house who was permitted to read
the document before it was sent to

A Santa Washi'nvtoh special says:
spenulatmn as to flarrison’s cabinet
is the main consideration of present
importance. Regarding the probabil
ity of Harrison calling Blaine to the
head of the cabinet there is $19!“. di~
ver mg of opinion among epubli

Wish and hope is that Blaine may be
let severely alone. Even his admirers
say the new administration would
have a better chance without Blaine
than with him. Fully a dozen cabin
net slates have deen promulgaled 1
here to—day. Taken together they
contain pretty nearly every Republi
can name of prominence in the
country. Perhaps the only one of
the names that is certain to be found
in the final list is the name of Col.
John C. New 0! Indiana, who is re
garded as the coming secretary of
the treasury. Almost without doubt
Harrison will put some Indiana man
in the cabinet, and Col. New is the
first and only man anyone thinks of.
His long and large experience in the
treasury suggests the appropriateness
of placing him at the head ol the de—
partment. John Shaman is also
mentioned as secretary of state.
It was only by accident that Ta
coma became the Puget Sound ter
minus of the N. I’. R. R. Had it
not been for the failure of Jay Cooke
the terminus was to have been made
at. Ship Harbor, Fidalgo Island,
where the water front was owned by
Gen. Hazard Stephens. son of Gov~
ernor I. .l. Stephens, who made the
first surveys for the Pacific railway
under the Federal Government.
Among the subordinate parties whose
explorers were subject to Governor
Stephens, were those of Lieut. Mc-
Clellan, afterward General Mc-
Clellan. and Lieutenant. Mullen, af
ter whom the Mullen tunnel and the
Mullen road were named. Gov.
Stephens always contended that the
main line of the N. P. R. R. should
cross the Cascade mountains by the
Skagit pass. and have its terminus
at Ship Harbor; and that would no
doubt have been the case but for
Jay Cooke’s failure. When the
\crash came the road from Kalama
‘was graded half way from Tacoma
to Seattle and it was the intention to
extend it on down to Ship Harbor.
But the old saying,"‘nny port in a
storm.“ came into play and grading
ceased and the track was laid only to
Tacoma because there was not funds .
suflicieat to extend it on to its proper
emanation—W.
