THE PRESIDENT.

A year ago the Presidential question
Was unsettled and the most important
interests Of the American people were
totally stagnated by the way in which
men Of all politics were looking for a
settlement Of the vexed question. No
sooner was Rutherford Il. Hayes in
stalled in the Presidential chair than
he began to conciliate the turbulent ele-
ments in the South by restoring home
rule and relieving the Southern states
Of gang Of political cormorants who
were devouring the substance Of the
people and paralyzing all their local
industries. As these men were large
class aud had influential relatives in all
the Northern cities upon whom they
had to fall back for support, it is no
matter for special wonder that the
Presidents policy should meet with
more or less sntagonism.
But it is written in the Book OF ali
Books that "by their fruits We shall
know them" And, Judging by the re-
suits of the Presidents course in ref
erence to Southern affairs. We deem him
Chief Magistrate eminently worthy
the confidence of the people whom. in
less than year. he has changed from
state Of anarchy and bloodshed to a
toldition Of industry and tranquility.
We hear of no moro midnight raids of
terror. no more Ku.Klux outrages and
no more Eliza Pinkston affairs. The
sugar mill and the cotton press are kept
busily at work; the majestic steamers
pillow tho Father Of waters" without
fear of molestation from the guerrilla's
rifle; and the light of burning home
steads no longer flashes on the bayonet.
In q word, there is peace and tran
guilty in the South at present, which
has not hitherto prevailed since 1860;
and for this we have to thank the sa-
gacity and foresight Of the President:
Some of the Republican papers,
urged Oh by discomfitted politicians Of
Conkling's stamp, are bounding the
President as though he were male
factor because he does not allow them
to run the nation TO suit themselves.
They are upbraiding him with want
Of loyalty to party. To our notion. the
the Presidents first duty is to the peo-
pie and after that is disposed of, then
it is time enough to talk of his duty to
party. The President has restored
peace to the nation and SGT the wheels
|of industry once mere in motion. which
was more than his predecessors could do
with all his military prowess. The
people are grateful for what he has
done. and Us long as President Hayes
Possesses the confidence of the people,
he can we'll smile at the impotsnt rage
of tho professional politicians.

SOME of the papers are Directing to
the constitutional convention as being
too small body Of men, and saying it
is plan of the Governors to capture
the convention. Now We happen to
know little about that matter. The
bill was a Council bill, but was amended
in the house to increase the number Of
delegates TO thirty-one for each repre-
sentative in the House. The Council
refused to concur in the House amend
ments, and the House, seeing the bill
would be defeated and our Territorial
existence prolonged two years more,
gave up the contest and receded from
their action. The amendment wss un-
doubtedly the work Of the Governors
friends, and it is we'll known that he
approved the bill With reluctance. Had
the bill passed at thirty delegates. thus
doubling the expense of holding the
convention. there might have been some
cause of complaint; but ss it stands
the Governor is the last man who should
be blamed for the compar atively small
number of delegates in the convention.

WORTHY OF IMITATION.

There is sublime philosophy in that
old Greek maxim that "the Gods help
those who help themselves" We are
particularly reminded of this by the
condition Of the neighboring province
of British Columbia, which joined the
Dominion Of Canada on the expressed
stipulation that the latter power should
build q railroad across the continent,
thus uniting one part of the Dominion
with the other. Year after year hes
rolled ty, during which nearly three
millions OF dollars have been spent
upon surveys. but no ground broken
nor no track laid. Nor 10 there any
grounds for belief that any road will be
SO built during the life Of any man or
boy now on the face of the earth.
If British Columbia were poor, we
should think very different Of il; but
she is wealthy. In tho vaults of the
Victoria banks are not less than two
millions of dollars awaiting invest-
ment. This could be well invested by
building narrow-gauge road from
Fort Yale back into the rich and fer
tile Okanagon country. which would
soon be able to furnish all the bread
stnffs required by the cities of Victoria
aud Nanaimo. instead of importing
them from Oregon. as they do. As
soon - the eastern end of the road
tapped the grain region. the western
end could be extended down the Fraser
river 70 deep water, SO as to bring ship
and car together.
Seattle is now extending her railroads
TO tho heart Of this Territory for IN
exactly similar purpose. Her aim is to
rescue this Territory from its Deepen.
dsncy upon Oregon. Already she has
built twenty miles of this road, which
is just Is good as a broad gauge road.
and good deal cheaper. Next year
she will build At least forty miles more.
Aud Jet her citizens are men of but
little surplus meaus. while Victoria has
a score of capitalists worth over .
quarter of million. most of whom
have made their money in British
Columbia, and have no idea OF leaving
there. They can build up that ooantry
and make it . great commercial power
il they choose; but IL they wait for
Canada to do it. they will wait in vain.
Our example il worthy Of imitation.

A London Russian official dispatch
dated Bogot, Dec. II, says sixty bat

forces of the Grand Duke Vladimer all

principal efforts against the left centre.
They attacked Welcka six times but
were each time repulsed with great
loss. At lP. NJ. the 18th division Of
the twelfth Russian corps appeared on
the scene. and attacking the Turks on
their flank compelled them with the
cooperation of the rest of the Russians
to retire upon Krsvza. their retreat to
