sheet of eight pages, or 56 broad col
umns whiie the weekly edition will be
sheet of eight pages of the same d.
mansions and character that are already
familiar to our friends.
The SUN will continue to be the stren-
uous advocate of reform and retrench-
msnt. and of the substitution Of states
manship, wisdom, and integrity for hol-
low pretence, imbecility and fraud in the
administration of public affairs. 1t will
contend for the government of the people
by the people acd for the people, as OPP
posed to government by frauds in the
ballot-box and in the counting Of votes,
enforced by military violence. 1t will

the most careful, complete, and trust
worthy accounts of current events, and
will employ for this purpoae numerous
and carefully selected staff. of reporters
and correspondents. Its reports from
Washington. especially, will be full, ac-
curate, and fearless and it will doubt
less continue to deserve and enjoy the
hatred of those who thrive by plumber
ing the Treasury or usurping what the
law does not give them, while it will en-
deavor to merit the coincidence Of the
public by defending the rights Of the
people against the encroachments Of I'M
justified power.

be entitled to one copy Of the paper for
himself without charge. At one dollar a
year, postage paid. the expenses Of paper

As it has been extensively reported by
rival sewing machine companies and
their peddlers, that the manufacture and
eale of the GROVER & BAKER SEW
ING MACHINES had been suspended,
and the machines and the parts could no
longer be obtained, 1 beg leave to state
that the business of manufacturing the
machines has ONLY been changed, and
that the supply Will be larger, and better,
and the sale of these Celebrated Ma
chimes more vigorously pushed than
ever before. The popularity of the
GROVER & BAKER Machines is hard

OUR BOYS In BLUE.

The boat race In Esquimalt, D. g., between
the U. 8. S. LackawaDna's gig, 70 oars) and III.
b. NJ. SVoop-of-war Opal's gig (which is private
race boat owned by the Captain) has caused
much excitement in Victoria, and we may
feel justly proud of the result. On the 18th, the
time appointed for the race, the two boats
started, the Lackawanna slightly ahead, when
the Opal's gig turned out Of her course and
fouled the other boat. A second start led to
the same result, when the Lackawanna's crew
declared that they were not getting fair
play, and threw up the race. The next day,
in answer to u challenge to pull on time, the
race took place without accident and resulted
in the Lnckawanna's crew winning the race
by Is seconds. The distance was miles and
time 1912. We learn that great many dol
lars changed hands, and the race depopulated
Victoria. Everyone declared that 1t was a
fair and hard won race. This is the eleventh
race for the Lackawanna's crew, In China, ia
pan and California, and has been victorious
each time. May they never lose their grip,
and always pull a strong oar, is our earnest
wish. Hurrah for "our boys in blue"
