THE ORIGINAL INTENT.-Just
now, when so much trouble, delay
and inconvenience is being ex-
perienced on account of the break
ing of the telegraphic cable leading
down to Victoria from across the ISL
ands, is an opportune moment to call
attention to the fact that necessity
may yet compel the location Of tha'
cable where it was originally intend
ed to be, viz, from Edith Hook
across the straits to Victoria. The
line could be consolidated with the
P. S. L. Co.'S line, or some arrange
ment effected whereby the latter line
could be used down as far as Chin
acum valley, from which place the
main line could extend around Port
Discovery Bay and down the straits
to the point before mentioned. This.
we believe, was the original design,
and its wisdom over the plan adopted
has been demonstrated in the fact
that the cable was laid where sunken
reefs, ledges Of copper, etc, rendered
it constantly liable to being severed,
while the route, as sounded, across
from Port Angeles Bay is as practi.
cable and feasible to-day as it ever
has been. The channel is quite mar
row, the bottom sandy and free from
reefs of any kind and the water deep
enough to render any surface action
powerless to disturb a cable when
once laid.

III such a body they would do their
duty, ably and conscien,iously, and
in manner most satisfactory to the
people and beneficial to the Terri
tory. We have not exchanged a
word with any of the Judges on this
subject, for the reason that we have
not regarded it necessary to do so.
They are the peoples hired and paid
servants, whose especial duty it is to
most thoroughly understand such
matters, studying and expounding
them every day of their lives. No
terms Of the District Court will or
need conflict with the session OF the
Convention, and there is no reason
beyond the will of selfish politicians
why the people in this important
matter should not be served by them.
Of course, the Judges could not un.
dignity themselves by engaging in
contest for seats in the Convention;
but they could not refuse to fill

without unworthy effort on their part.
We are not one who shouts "ring!"

taken hold of this matter, for we don't
discover the "ring," and we don't
see how it could be managed by those
not at the head Of political organiza.
tions. Let the county and district
conventions go on, and nominate
their. best men, and the best men in
their parties, too; but if it is posi-
BILE to effect the arrangement, let
them do as much for the people as
we have suggcsted-combine in each

OUR EIGHTH VOLUME.

1t is quite unnecessary, in this
initial number of the eighth volume of
the ARGUS, to air any supertluous
sentences setting forth or defining
. our course for the future, or indulg
ing our persona vanity by exten-
sively reviewing the past.
For nearly ten months we have
stood at the helm of this enterprise,
and engineered it through such
storms and circumstances as the fates
were pleased to bring about. Dur
that time the public has had a fair
opportunity to set the bounds and
prophesy for it's future standing and
usefulness. Its aims have never
been concealed, and its efforts for the
accomplishment of any object what
ever have always been of the most
open aud unaffected character, hence
it has been HONEST in every senti.
ment spoken. If a liberal and in
creasing patronage on the part of the
public may be construed into mean
ing an appreciation of merit, then
Indeed would we be ungrateful did
the future not disclose earnest and
continuous efforts at Improvement
on our part. The profession of
journalism we adopted, not in the
hope of immediate pecuniary gain,
or yet because any particularly at,
tractive opening was presented In
that line, but after mature delibera.
ton aad consideration of natural
predictions presupposing greater
likelihood of fitness for the business
than for any other.
To say that we enter upon this
volume with high and sanguine hopes
of success, good resolutions, etc.,
would be to inform the public of
what it already knows if it gives us
credit for having common sense and
ordinary qualifications for success in
the business. We may say, however,
that by the time another year rolls
around If the ARGUS does not pres
ent many Improvements, now merely
in prospect, we will suffer greater
disappointment than any of our read
ers will experience. In the mean
time, while expressing a hope that
increased experience viii! lend great.

nuisance in the shape of a'pig pen at

therefrom is said to be quite offensive

ALASKA FIsHERY.-We are very
much gratifed to notice the glowing
account of canning establishment
to be started in Alaska, the material
for which was conveyed thither by
the California. This account too
obtaining currency through the pub
lic prints in paper the ponderous
brain power Of which had long since
been welded in attempting to get
up the impression that Alaska was a
fit place only for polar bears to
dwell in," or that man should not be
sent there except to inhict upon him
the severest penalty known to law.
We are pleased to see such items an
pear in this way, because they
demonstrate the fact that the very
ones who have argued SO much
against Alaska themselves must ad-
init and even herald the growing
Importance and natural wealth of the
place. Within the next FIVE wears,
from present indications, Alaska will
prove to be one of our most valued
possessions.

Big SCARE.-The people Of Vic
toria just now have magnificent
scare on. Owing to the unsettled
state of European affairs and immi-
nent danger of war between Russia
and England, they have taken active
steps to institute regularly organ
lied system of defense. The moves
made just at present, are to enlist re-
cruits for the militia, plant cannon at
suitable points and get their man,of-
war vessels in better fighting trim.
On Monday morning of this week,
their telegraphic communications
were ascertained to have been sew
cred on all sides, on account of
severe storms which broke the cable
and prostrated the lines at various
points on land. So intense was the
excitement and anxiety to get news
which would disclose the course mat
ters we're taking across the seas, that
the steamer Sir james Douglas was
oNui hVu dOIOoo " IntS ollG vi JllG
Sound to find point from which she
could send and receive telegrams.
Arriving at this port and ascertain
ing that the lines were down above
here, she proceeded up the Sound.
The presence of Russian man of war
in Esquimalt harbor, though she had
only put in there for repairs, was
enough at this critical period to set
Victoria people aglow with rumors
and conjectures about a probable
bombardment and destruction OF
property by Russian fleet which
they could easily imagine as about to
pounce down upon them in case of
open war. However, these fears
may be we'll founded; and, in case
the worst comes, all British Colum-
bia may wish for annexation to IN
Gle Samuel's domain.

ant duties attendant upon the fran

little cloud arose above the horizon,
having its origin, a. all admit. in the
efforts of few Seattle politicians
who were anxious for the emolu.
meuts which only a partizan strife
could bring. They were Democrats,
and their efforts, SAYS tho Walla
Walla Statesman" a Democratic
paper Of the rankest type, char
acterzed heads of the cocoa nut
stamp. They issued a secret circu.
lar, evidently with the intention Of
organizing a united Democratic cam
paign to elect parti2an candidates,
while shammng cooperative move
meDt with Republicans in electing
non partizan delegates. This bad
faith on their part caused, when it
was discovered, hasty action on the
opposite side, which took the shape
of a call, issued at Olympia, over the
signature of the chairman of the Re-
publican Cen. Com, for the holding of
conventions and conducting a regu
lar party election. The "new de.
parture" was premature, on both
sides, and the number who condemn
its deplorable results is by no means
confined to either party. On the
other hand, Democratic papers,
while admitting that the Repu bli-
cans would, on strict party vote,
elect ten out Of the fifteen delegates,
have nevertheless Deen untiring in
bringing about state of affairs
whereby just such thing would oc-
cur. We opposed the dragging Of
politics into the matter, on the
grounds that there would be nothing
to gain by it and everything to lose.
When such a momentous question is
pending as the framing of laws to
govern a state, the people do not
want the results confded to lot of
delegates who would be wrapped up
in advancing local political schemes,
or who would he hampered by pied,
ges to the wire.pullers of their res
