These considerations may serve to show
how detestable and mischievous are The con-
ssqusEoes of war. even to the States and
nations which staLd aloof from it. For this
reason it has always bsen held that no civilized
Government has the right TO make war on
another, and to assume these formidable
5sIligerent rights ct the expense of %neutrals,
unless it could establish to the satisfaction Of
the world that a real, substantial cause Of War
does exist. In the present instance, the
ingenuity Of Russia herself has failed to show
50 much as a pretexL for the Invasion OF the
O.teman Empire, and the assumption and
exercise of belligorsnt rights against the rsat
of the world. All the injury which the
declaration Of war mas already inflicted on
|neutfals, and the far greater evils which Will
follow in IT'S train, are uEwArr&ntable wrongs
doue to The rest Of mankiod by one huge mill
tsry Power. An unproyoked war is, in fact,
an aot Of hostility against the whole human
race and against civilization itself, because Its
effects cauno, b8 confned to tbs destruction
of The enemy they inevitably embrace the
interests Of neutral Powers aad nations
throughout The world. OF such a var, the
Russian Government sP9eag to ms TO bs the

Our Port Gamble Letter.

PORT GAMBLE. Dec. 20, 1876.
Christmas at this point was spent very
quietly. nothing of note transpiring ex-
cept very pleasant dance on Christi
mas night which was largely attended,
there being some forty couples present.
All agree that it was the most enjoyable
affair that has taken place in Port Gam
bic since the last wedding. The music
was furnished by PIof. Roberts of Olym-
pia and C. W. & S. .. Lowe of this
place, and was satisfactory. Among
the strangers present we're Misses Rails
ton. and Moss. and Messrs. Taylor.
Adams and Babcock of Tacoma.
The company are erecting very
handsome fountain in tie yard of Mr..
Cyrus Walker, which will add much to
the beauty of his residence.
The barks Cheston and Sprague ar
rived the present week with cargoes of
hay for the company. The barken,ine
Joseph Perkins sailed yesterday for
San Francisco, and the Powhattan will
probably be ready to- day, her destina-
ton being the same.
We are having our usual winter
weather-rain. though We can't COM
plain, as it is the first rain of the sea-
son. BARKILPHEDRo.

WRITE HIM DOWN A SAINT,

For we know full we'll that could
the dark face come back from "the
pale realms of shade, where each
shall take his chamber in the silent
halls of DEATH" he would say-"If
you speak of me at all, speak of me
as I was"-nothing extenuate, nor
set down aught in malice. The
right to applaud carries with it the
right to censure; so we speak of one
whose merits overbalanced his fol-
bles. A cloud hung over his life,
that no mortal eye ever penetrated.
Charles Anderson and James Os-
born were his true friends and did
all they could to render his latter
days peaceful and free from pain.
But even to them he revealed not
the mysterious weight of care that
crushed him at time when life is
most enjoyable. One cold day last
March
THE WEARY HAND RESTED
And the subtle brain ceased to throb.
Billy Flfe mad gone TO rest, and car
ried the secret of his strange life
before One whose queries may not
be evaded. That a mighty grief
underlay his whole life, more than
one is aware. But its cause slum-
bered in the breast that bore 1t, as
the restless black eye grew filmy
and the bold spirit took its fight
beyond the gates which Deaths
hand alone can unbar. Where he
is buried we do not know, or
whether a tombstone tells his rest
ing place, we cannot say, but if
there is none above him, he shall
have one ere the lapse of another
year. He was a man who initiated
no one, and coveted no followers.
He lived an enigma, he died a
charade.

A CANDID POLICY.

We have been censured by several of
our neighbors for the plain manner in
which We have spoken of the presence
of smallpox in this city. They say it
will discourage travel to this place and
send the transient traffic to some other
point. We say, it is better to lose the
entire transient trade of the whole
Sound for a month than to delude, our
own citizens, by our silence, into the
belief that there is no danger. Indians
go into families to wash clothes in the
day and return to the infected neighs
borhood at night. thus placing the
health of our entire community in dan
ger. 1t is better to act with candor and
treat the question as it deserves.
On Thursday night. Notwithstanding
the praiseworthy precaution taken by
the Mayor and Common Council, two
men who have been hangers-on about
the infected locality ever since they
have been here. walked into ,estau
rant in this city and ordered some oys-
ters. At the same time another degrad-
ed creature who plays the fiddle in that
establishment, was walking from one
saloon to another and talking about the
sick woman with the utmost nonchalance
| Of course, no better could be expected
| fl ON any of these animals, for when
a white man gets SO low down as to CO.
habit with Indian women. he is lost to
all principles of decency and has no
scruples about spreading disease or
anything else.
We favor measures of prevention, be-
fore the disease breaks out in multiplied
! instances and virulent form. Erect
pest house at Alki Point or on the op-
posite side of the bay. near the mouth
of Duwamish rirsr. Remove the in
fected Indians there, and the degraded
white mer who subsist from the wages
of their shame, will not be long in fol-
lowing them. Thus our city will be
happily rid of two most pestiferous
classes. If matters are suffered to 60
on as at present, the Indian women
will spread the contagipn into some
family whose children may carry it into
the public schools-schools Of which
our city has just cause to be proud. We
cannot be too open in our action about
these matters. Let us use every effort
to extinguish the malady. SO that we
will gain the confidence of the adjacent
country and retain our prestige as the
metropolis of the Sound. To smother
the truth at this time, would be dis
graceful to an intelligent and honest
people. Let us do all we can to quench
the contagion and prevent future cou-
taminatiOn.

The farmers OF Sedgwick county would
like to be let alone with their lands, seeds and
. favorable season just 70 show the world
what our soil Is capable of. But seme way or
other one or another OF the eternal plaques
keep turning up to vpx, harrow and disap-
point. Many of the fields seeded to wheat
the last Of August and the first week Of Sep
TENDER have been attacked in spots by what
is supposed to be the Hessan ny or fly of
some kind. whose eggs deposited on the blade
OF the grain matches out small green worm
that ends its way down to the crown of the
plant. The damage has not been serious but
Of sufficient breadth to attract the attention Of
wheat growers who find in the early sown
fields spots here and there that look yellow
In each STOOL Whether more than the one
stalk Of each stool is damaged, and whether
the cold weather finishes the plague we are
not advised, nor have we met a farmer who
could inform Us. The general opinion Is that
the damage is slight, If wsrth noticing at all,
still there is an apprehension that the spring
may develop destructive insect. WewouId
be pleased to hear from any OF our farmers.
Since writing the above we have heard fro m

sioner, who has had experience with the Hes
sian ny III Michigan. Hon e. p. Thompson,
who hss lost hundreds OF acres from the same
pest in Pennsylvania and ex-Commssioner

perienced wheat grower, who unite 10 saying
that they are unable TO find any fly, grub, or
egg in the wheat.

While all the leading business houses Of

derstand full we'll that they can reach = much
larger number OF people Of this valley through
the columns OF the EAGLE than through any
other paper or papers printed or circulated
hsre-that we never bore. by personal solicita-
tons class of men, who above all others are
supposed TO know iheir own business, and
who have full understanding OF these mat
iers.s stir many OF them do not know
that we have just received the largest, finest
and most complete assortment OF job material
ever brought to this section OF the State, con-
ssiing of fancy types, new patent faces, cle-
CANT scripts and texts, beautiful borders,
dashes, cuts, etc, which were purchased in
New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Cincinnati,
Chicago and ST. Louis. While we shall
adhere TO our old rule, and in no wise en-
barrass them 10y personal solicitations, w0
take great pleasure in announcing our in
creased facilities for giving entire Subtraction
in fine, cheap commercial work of every char
acter. In three or four day. our new materi-
al will all be arranged. when we will be ready
10 make our assertions good.
