cause we sometimes spell Mr., Jacobs
name as Gov. Solomon pronounces it.

a record with reference to our foreign
population, and we are too much of a

HOW TIE PEOPLE ARE MADE TO Paw
TRIBUTE,

TRIBUTE.
After the nomination of Jacobs nv
the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Convention. n
large number of sore-heads were wish
bic, and prominent among them was
the long and shrewd capm of one of
the owners of the Courier printing es-
adjustment. He declared that the m.
per should not support Jacobs while il
remained under his control, and onlv
consented to its endorsement of the
nominee on condition that his interest
should be purchased outright by a stated
time. The sale was effected "a stinu.
lated, by Messrs. Harmon, Ferry and
McNlicken becoming joint owners by
purchase in the Courier establishment.
1t is easy enough to account for the
manner in which ofice-holders NAV
raise " corruption fund, to subsidize
newspapers, but why Hill Harmon
should manifest SO much zeal as to ap-
propriate his own money to such an
object needs word Of explanation.
1t is probably not generally known
Mr.. Harmon, as contractor for keeping
the insane patients, has about the " soft
est thing" in the Territory. Nor is
it understood that the contract was
awarded to him as party favorite at a
higher rate of compensation than the
bid OF at least one other responsible
party. Why this was done, we believe
that present circumstances afford full
and satisfactory answer. It was liter
ally, in Republican parlance to place
money where it would do the most
good" Hence we find Mr.. Harmon
forward in the cause, his pockets lined
with greenbacks, to buy printing offices,
hire editors, purchase votes, OR do any,
thing else which "party necessity" may
require.
There is, however, an additional in
centive for party zeal in the present
campaign. Mr.. Harmon's contract ex-
pires in August, 1875, and to keep it at
the present lucrative figures, for an in
definite period, requires the election Of
legislature which may not be inAu-
enced by certain modern ideas advanced
by the Medical Association of the Ter
ritory, who are using every effort to
place the Asylum under the system Of
management adopted by similar insti-
tutions in the older States. 1t is ar
ranged that Mr.. Harmon, OF some friend
of his, will be the Republican candidate
for Councilman in tho District COM
posed OF the counties of Pierce, Mason
and Chehalis, SO that he will have q
representative in the next Assembly
whose special duty it will be to advance
his personal interests, as we'll as that
other object of paramount importance,
the interests of the great Republican
party of the Territory.
This explanation will shed some light
upon subject which has hitherto been
shrouded in mystery. 1t will show the
people of Pierce, Mason and Chehalis
counties why such decided interest is
felt in their local politics, and how it is
expected they are to be used to advance
the mercenary objects of wirey poll
tician and, at the same time, afford
perpetual corruption fund to carry on
elections, drawn directly from the pock-
cts of our citizens. Forewarned is fore
armed. If they now aid the plot, they
do it with their eyes open.

Among the passengers OF the Vile de Paris,
which arrived from Havre on Thursday, was
a young English lady with eight large, heavily
laden trunks. She told the customs officers
on the wharf that she was II newly-engaged
member of the Soldene Open Boufie Troupe,
performing in the Lyceum Theatre. and that
the trunks held her costumes for the company
from the houses of various Partisan makers.
She produced paper purporting to be con-
tract with a dramatic agency in Paris, signed
by the diractor of the Lyceum Theater. After
hearing her story the officers permitted her to
take away the trunks free Of duty. They
afterward learned from Mr.. Chizzola and Miss
Soidene that the woman was unknown to
them. Col. Geo. 0. Williams and Special
Treasury Agent Chalker. traced the goods to
q fashionable millinery in Broadway, near the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, and there they were
seized on Saturday.
In the trunks were from S15, 900 to $50. 600
worth OF silk and velvet dresses, laces. en-
broideries. and other apparel for ladies. There
was also list of the consignees for whom the
goods we're intended. The list included the
names of two grand DANES Of Murray Hill and
Fifth Avenue The duties on the goods are
estimated at IS, 900.
