SAN JUAN ISLAND.


It Is q matter of congratulation
that the San Juan boundary ques-
ton has at last reached such an ami
cable adjustment. Tie retention OF
that island as q portion of the pos
sessions of the United States is u
matter OF greater importance than
IL suggested by a mere glance at
its geography. For more than
twenty.six years this Question has
been . bone of contention between
1Dglaud and the CniIed States, and
on more than one occasion appar.
entity led the two countries 10 the
Vely verge of war. Once q declar-
alton OF war was actually drafted
by the Government, but wiser coun-
eel prevailed and the cloud passed.
The island of San Juan, which
nes between the 4Sth aud 49th par
alell, and nearly midway between
VaDcouver's Island and Washing
ton Territory, is fifteen miles in
length and Fl ON three to seven in
width, snd has an area OF about for
~ tho usand acres. The northern
portion is mountainous and heavily
timbered, but the southern part has
many beautiful prairies, and is ex-
oeedingly fertile. The pasture is SO
nutritious that the mutton raised
upon IL is remarkable tor the delica-
0y OF its flavor. There Is near the
harbor a valuable quarry OF lime
atone. These islands contain the
Dnly limestone quarries as yet found

THE RESULT.


The election returns must be
satisfactory to Republics. The
people have again given their YER
dict, and it is in favor of four
moro years of rule by the glorious
old Republican party. Notwith-
standing the most bitter and viru-
lent fight ever made on a presi-
Dental candidate, was made
against General Grant, the peo-
pie have shown their confidence
in him by re-electing him to the
highest office in their gift. The
people do not forget their truest
friends. The man who has been
tried and mot found wanting
could not be killed Off by an army
OF Democrats and sore heads. AS
We predicted, several months ago,
Greeley is the worst whipped man
that ever ran for President. We
believe the brightest anticipatiens
OF the loyal masses will be realized,
In the increased growth and pros
perity of the COM try in the next
four years of Republican rule.

EDUcATIoHAL.-We neglected 10
announce last week that we had
made arrangements with Prof. S. S.
Bobcock, of the State Normal
school, to conduct an educational
department in our paper. He will
be assisted, from time TO time, by
other able educators connected
with the State Normal and city
schools. Sew eral of them have
had large experience in editorial
work, and we have no hesitancy in
saying that this department of our
paper will be conducted with abili-
lty, and will be of interest both to
, those who are engaged Immediately
In educational work, and the gen.
eral reader. Prof. Babcock has had
large experience in this kind OF
work, and his task is not under
taken for the mere form of filling a
column or two of our paper, but
for the purpose of giving our read
ers something that will be fresh and
useful each week, end we have no
doubt but his contributions will be
interesting and profitable. All mat
ter intended for this department
must be addressed to him.
