PARTY PROSPECTS IN WHITE PINE.-The
News of Monday thus reviews the political
field:
The registration of voters for the coming
municipal election closed on Friday evening
The total number Of names on the rolls, in
both townships, is SS5. By careful canvass
of the lists, we are convinced that the election
will be closely contested one; and that the
Republicans must work strenuously to secure
the election of their entire ticket. 1t ought
to be borne in mind that the Democrats in
variably vote-at least once; they are never
known to neglect the exercise of this impor-
tant privilege-whilst, on the other hand, the
Republicans are often very derelict about
going to the polls, especially in elections like
this. The Republicans will carry the city
without a doubt, if they will take an active
interest in the contest; and no time should
be lost in reconciling the wavering, and in
urging upon the apathetic the importance to
the party of securing the prestige of victory.
If we fail to succeed. the time-servers who
follow in the wake of success will 90 over to
our opponents; and if we triumph, we shall
secure the vote of Hamilton to the Republi-
can cause at the next general election. Up
and at them!

CHINESE GEESE are great curiosity
Farmer Treadway used to own a pair OF
them. He dijn' t keep them very long.
lie swapped them to Bob Sharp for some
ducks. These geese have horns on
their heads and live to a great age
Tread sweers that his were at least
hundred years old. Anyhow their eggs
never would hatch. They have a very
peculiar voice-a SORT of cross between
the sound of a gong and that offs Scotch
bag pipe. That is the reason be was
willing to exchange them for Sharps
ducks. By the time Sharp had had them
for forty eight hours the novelty of their
peculiar music began TO wear off
Gradually be lost interest in them and
began to quit inviting people up to see
his geese. Then be got disgusted and
finally be sold them to Capt Winnie
Rumor says they have driven everything
of from Winne's ranch. Ifthey haven't
they will; for when they tune up you
can hear them a mile, against the wind
They must be the kind of geese that
saved the Roman Capital. Certainly
when they are in good voice they can
make a noise that is not only strong
enough 10 waken a whole city but to
frighten away all its enemies.

is done by swelling out the section near the
water line, and tapering off gradually forward
and aft In her case it was carried out about
fifteen inches and tapered off to about thirty
feet each May. The chipping" process, al
though enabling the vessel to carry more sail,
does not always result in an improvement of
speed, as the additional resistance caused by
increasing the area of the midship section
generally annuls the power given by the in
creased sails. The chipping" does not i'm
pair the original beauty of the yacht, as it is
confined to the midship section, and, being
mostly under the water-line, the slight alter
alton is hardly perceptible. 1t is not yet def
nitely known whether Fish or Captain Brown,
who sailed tine America, had charge when the
Cambria was beaten. This is known-the
Sappho has recovered her reputation, and
again an American yacht flies the victorious
pennant, having beaten Englands smartest
yacht in English waters over two courses
chosen by England's greatest yachtsmen.
