THE LAsr.-The last vessel At the
Seattle Coal Co.'S bunkers, the bark
Samoset, loaded with 1925 tons 81 coal
will go to sea this morning in tow of the
Tacoma. This. as we have indicated.
will leave the bunkers unoccupied, and
for the frs, time for several months.
An entire absence Of vessels at their
bunksfs does not occur more than once
or twice year. Sc far the present
month, this company has shipped 1928
tons Of coal, and unless they are dis
appointed in the expected arrival of
a portion of their fleet imme-
mediately. their total shipment for the
month Of January will reach some
thing over $4,000 tons, and together
with the smaller shipments from Tie
other two mines will make a pretty
handsome showing for the coal interests
of our city. for the first mouth of tho
new year. Tonight the company will
have over 1000 tons Of coal in their
bunkers. which amount will crowd
them to their full capacity. The first
vessel that puts in an appearance now
will likely receive quite unprecedented
dispatch, as everything will be in read
moss and the requisite coal on the
wharf.

cratic in both branches. The House

in the Senate the Democrats have 20
members to the Republicans Is, or that
was the standing Of parties at roll-call
on Saturday. This is a singular state
of atfairs. when il is remembered that
Hayes is acting as President by virtue
of his having counted for him the
votes Of Louisiana, where he received
several hundred, less votes than Pack
ard. And right here it must be appa-
rent to every onefthat Blaine's argu-
ment is impregnable. If Packard was
not elected, Hayes was not; and no
amount Of special pleading can wire
out or cover up that fact. The case OF
Packard and Hayes is identical, and,
by his official acts, Hayes acknowledg-
es that he has won his way into the
White House by the perjuries, forger-
les and frauds Of the Returning Board'
and their abettors. This is a fact that
the fair minded, honest American cit
izen cannot afford to forget or ignore,
unless he is ready to abandon the
priceless boon purchased by the blood
of our patriot fathers.

What Will Happen.

New York World. fEfff%
Florida, which was claimed for
Stearns and the electoral vote Of which
was counted for Hayes, has been sur
rendered to the Democrats. South
Carolina, which was claimed for Cham
berlain, and the electoral vote of
which was counted for Hayes, is now
surrendered to the Democrats. And
Louisiana, which was claimed for
PACKARD, and the electoral vote OF
which was counted for Hayes, must
soon be surrendered to the Democrat, ,
In each of these cases the Republicans
must confess anew the blackness OF
their own crimes, and acknowledge
once, twice, and third time that they
have put n pretendcr into the Presi-
Dental office. The occasion thus Of
fered to the leaders OF the Democratic
party to assert clearly and perempto-
rily the supremacy of the people over
the Government will not be trified
with or thrown away. And those
who hold to-day prizes which they
never fairly won will ere long be made
to realize the bitter prospect held up
to them by Judge Black in his scatil-
ing speech before the Electoral Com
mission: "Iou may say to-day we
have made covenant with death, and
with hell we are at agreement; when
the overlooking scOurge shall pass
through, it shall no come unto us for
we have made lies our refuge, and un-
der falsehOOd have we hid ourselves.
But nevertheless wait little while.
The waters of truth will rise gradual
ly, and slowly, but surely, and then
look out for tie ovarfowing scourge.
The refuge of lies shall be swept away
and the biding places of falsehood
shall be uncovered"

~
a stormy Session.

4
a Washington special 10 the Pitts.
burgh Post says:
There is every evidence of n stormy
session when Congress meets in June.
The Senate will he AN exceptionally
able body, with more men of mark
than have probably sat in it for TWEEN
ty-five years SIr. Hayes will be at
some disadvantage in having so many
sentimental statemen in his Cabinet.
1t will lie stronger Cabinet than that
which Grant kept in Office, but Grant
consulted and acted upon the advice of
the leading Republican Senators.
Hayes starts out with a stronger Cabi-
net, but he is in position where he is
not sure of the support of either Re-
publicans or Democrats. There is an
uneasy feeling throughout the Repub-
Imam party and long-headed politicians
in Washington do not see how it is
possible to go on without reorganiza-
ton of parties. What will embarass s
the Administration at the meeting of
Congress is the endeavor of the Presi-
dent and the Secretary of the Treasury
to return tospecie payments at the earl
lest practical moment To this end a
violent contraction is now, going on,
with its accompaniment of commercial
and business dis t,ess. WhenC Congress
meets, Hayes will find the Republican
Senators openly or secretly rebellious,
and a parcel of clamorous office-seek-
ers eager for change in the public
service. The outlook is bad one, and
the session, once it dips iuto general
business, is likely to be memorable be-
cause of its bitterness, and possibly the
new party divisions it may mark out.
