Industrial Exhibition Seattle
Market on Christmas Day.

The exhibition on Christmas Day Il
the market of Messrs. Booth, Foss 4
Borst. merits more than passing no.
tice. We doubt if it WAS excelled by the
market-display of any of the large cities
in the land, and we have no recollection
Of having seen its equal either in New
York or San Francisco.
As an evidence of artistic skill and in
dustnal progress. it speaks well for the
capacity of Washington .Territory-for
surely no such display could have been
made in any but a country teeming with
tall the elements of productive energies.
A view of the market such as we had.
would not only eItort praise from the
cultivated gourmond, but crafty the
@sfhetic taste of the connoiseure who
has been fortunate enough to eat of the
inimitable cuisine of Partisan Cafe.
Seventy-five quarters of beeves, with
inches of fat on the ribs, pendant in
thribble rows, with garlands of arbor
vitae twined in festoons; sixty carcasses
of mutton, alternating with such spread
of haunch and brisket, and jackets of
snowy fat as would dwarf the celebrated
Southdown of Leister; then eleven pork
ers, evidently surfeited with nutricious
food, and on either side the wide portal
fatted calf literally frosted with hard
ened fat.
But lying on the ample tables was
such an array of potted meats-head-
cheese, bologna sausage, bron, lavelings,
forced ham, potted head, Frankfort sau-
sage, figured hams and tonges, pigs
feet, tripe, picked tongues, cased lard,
raised pork pies. boned turkey, geese,
checkers, etc. etc., that we are impelled
at last to cry, Hold! enoughr'
The beeves and hogs we're dressed,
We are told, by Mr.. James Bogart, who
has been in the employ of Messrs. Booth
& Co. for over three years.
The sheep were dressed by Messrs.
Reynolds, Wahl and Hazeman, AMI ex-
hibited high degree of artistic skill.
The potted meats, etc., which covered
the tables, were manufactured by Mr..
Thomss Murphy.
The entire display was so far beyond
what any one had any reason to expect,
that We deem it worthy of this more
than mere mention, as an exhibition of
the capacities of this country, and an
evidence Of laudable desire to excel.

INTELLIGENT ENTKRPRIsE.--The citi-
zens of Tumwater, comprising about
zoe inhabitants, have secured lot and
contracted for the building of hall for
the Tumwater Literary Society. The
society has an excellent library and $500
in the treasury. The contract price Of
their new hall is $3.50. Cannot Seattle,
with over ten times the number of pop
ulation, do as much as that? Say Tum-
water, with 200 inhabitants, has 81, 600
invested in library and literary socie-
ty; Seattle, with $4,000 inhabitants,
at the same rate, would have $12, 500
invested in the same way. What a
magnificent monument that would be 10
the intelligence and public spirit Of our
citizens; and what splendid invest.
ment to attract intelligent enterprise
capital and immigration to our city, and
thus greatly enhance the valae OF
our realty. Mr.. Horton to k an intelli-
gent business view of this matter. when
he proposed to donate $50 to the Ii.
brary Association upon condition that
others should contribute $1,000 to til.
same object. If fifty of our principal
property holders should contribute $500
each to public institution of this char
acter. they would not ultimately be one
cent poorer for it.

A DIFFERENCE. correspondent of
the Echo indignantly assails us for class
ing the vendor of sacramental wine with
the vendor of strychnine whiskey. A
fair construction of our position would
show that this classification is not ours.
but of our assailants, who denounce the
sale of spirituous, vinous or malt IL
quors as alike disreputable, and more
infamous than the keeping of house
of prostitution or gambling hell. We
are no apologist for vice or hcentious-
ness of any description, but do not be-
lieve that society can be made to accept
reforms by the indiscriminate dennncia-
ton of persons engaged in business
which public opinion endorses and the
laws sanction. We will make common
cause with anybody in maintaining the
laws for the defence of morality and
public decency, but will join nobody in
assailing and prescribing men engaged
in any pursuit which the laws sanction.
However We may differ with them as to
the public policy of their business, we
shall concede to them all the CONNER
cial facilities and civil rights to which
they are equally entitled with all others
before the laws.

Civil Service Reform.

The Washington Republican. Of the
9Th, in significant double-ieaded edi.
torial, replied to an editorial in Fred
Douglass paper, in which Douglass
charges that Civil Service Refom places
the enemies of the Republican party. or
equal footing with hard working Re-
publicans, however competent and hon
est. "The Offices " Douglass says,
should be filed by the men who have
won the recent victory at the polls, and
preserved the nation from the calamity
which threatened it,"
The Republican editorial says: "The
President has lately given the entire
question a good deal of attention and
consideration and is, we understand, en-
tirely satisfied that tha competitive sys-
tenn should not be rigidly, if, indeed, he
10 not convinced that it should be en-
TREY abolished. What is required is o
standard of efficiency TO which all who
are candidates should be up. 1t is not
the intention to put the enemies of tho
Republican party on an equal footing
with hard working Republicans, but it
Is the intention that hard working Re-
publicans shall not obtain the Office
without the least regard to their coppe-
tency. General Grant believes that,
first of all, all other things being equal.
the men who have stood by the party
should be appointed to Office in prefer
ence to those who have been opposed to
it, but to protect the public service.
there must be some standard of acquire
ment, and no man who falls below it
can be appointed merely to strengthen
the party. There is large class of per-
sons who are entitled to Office on many
grounds, such as service in the late war,
fidelity to Republican principles and SO
forth, but. in addition to these qualiica-
tons, they must be up to u certain stan
dard of efficiency before, in the future.
they can be appointed. When they are
thus qualified in an educational point,
which is not to be decided or determin-
ed on the competitive plan, theu they
are in all cases to get the preference.
If the Government has favors to give,
IN the opinion of the President, go to
the person who has stood by the Gov
ernment, provided he is fitted for the
position he may seek"

BRAGGINa OvLR It's FIRE.-The Chi.

a Cincinnati journal for daring to in
sinnate that Boston had gone ahead Of
Chicago in the matter of conhagra-
ton:
There is something inconceivably
childish in the idea of the Cincinnati
person chuckling over the thought that
some other city has had bigger FIRE
than Chicago. The petty jealousy and
malignant but impotent hate that arb
condensed IN tne aovsv Htis1io Aoooonsu
all the more ridiculous when it is con-
sidered that the Boston confagration
was not one-half SO great an affair,
measured in any way, as the Chicago
confagration. The latter must still be
the stan lard of comparison for calami-
ties of this character, just as the energy
of the city in recovering from the dis
aster must remain beyond all compare

papers makes illusions to a certain alb
sconding debtor, recently one of tho

joined. The whole affair is represented
as the most pleasant and enjoyable So

marred only by the failure of one of
the principal officers to appear for in
stalation until the large audience had
been kept waiting for more than an hour
beyond the appointed time, and some
had left in disgust; an objectionable
disregard OF the rights of others, if not
unavoidable.

Personal JoURNAL1sM.--A good deal
of twaddle is uttered by some country
newspapers just now over what they
call personal journalism. They say tina,
now that Mr.. Bennett, Mr.. Raymond
and Mr.. Greeley are dead, the day for
personal journalism is gone land tina,
impersonhl journalism will tax its
place. That appears to mean sort Of
journalism in which nobody will ask
who is the editor of paper, or the
writer of any class of article, and no.
body will care.
Whenever in the newspaper profes-
sion man rises up who is original,
strong and bold enough to make his
opinions matter of consequence to the
public, there will be personal journalism
and whenever newspapers are conduct
:ed bv common place individuals, whose
views are OF no interest," .osno, -. - a,,6

Important Enterprise.

Articles Of Incorporation have been
nled IN the County Auditors Office, in
this city, by Chester W. II. Smith,
". A. Wheaton, and George ".
Tew, under the name Of the "Elliot
Bay and Cedar River Coal Mining and
Railroad Company Capital ito
$500, 900, divided into 5000 shares Of
500 each.
The gentlemen comprising the incor
perators recently purchased the coal
mines near the mouth of Cedar River.
about twelve miles south Of this city.
The object of the company is, to work
the mine and construct railroad from
thence, down the valley of Black and
White rivers to this port. The mine is
near the located line Of the Northern
Pacific railroad. and this projected road
viii CT meet with that road aud secure
connection for Seattle with the same,
and also railroad transportation for their
coal from the mine to the Columbia riv-
er, at Kalama, besides adding another
very important resource to the business
of this city. That this enterprise will
yield large dividends upon the capital
invested, there can be no reasonable
doubt. The following extract from a
letter to the Commercial Reporter, from
q reliable gentleman in this city, shows
what may be done here in the coal bust
ness:
''The Seattle Coal Company is stock
company, organized under the laws of
California; Office at San Francisco. The
mine is located seventeen miles from
Seattle; four miles is railroad, marrow
gage) the balance of distance is by wa
ter over Lakes Union and Washington.
They are taking out All average of So
tons per day; employ about 120 men,
employ two steam tugs, two large barg-
es, one steam engine, 40 horses and 100
two ton cars. The coal is conveyed
from the mines to vessels at the port
without change Of cars. Last year they
mined $1,000 tons, 10000 of which was
shipped to San Francisco. This year
they have taken out 81, 600 tons, and
900 tons shipped to San Francisco
1t is now worth there $12 so per ton.
The expenses are as follows: SO so per
ton to mine it an put it in ships at Sc
attle; So per ton for freight, leaving a
net profit of 81 per ton, or 80 per cent.
Mr.. Charles j. Shattuck is Superintend-
ent, and resides here: the other owners
of the stock live in San Francisco and
New York. The demand for the coal is
said to be steadily increasing. The
mines are very large; in fact. the differ
ent mines on this Sound now known,
would supply the United States for fifty
years. 1t Is second Pennsylvania for
coal and iron, but it requires capital to
work them. This company have not
capital sufficient to run it as it should
be. If they owned their own ships they
could save or make for themselves 40
per cent. more by proper outlay; then
it could be placed in ships at 80 per
ton."
