Mr.. Henry Reese, of Baltimore,
Md, has invented new wrought
iron railroad tie. These ties are said
to be very la. ting, in fact, next to
imperishab!e. AS hard wood for ties
becomes scarcer, iron ones will
doubtless come into general use.

taken steps to discourage the immi-

who are induced to come to this
country, by the Mormon leaders for
final settlement in Utah. Letters
have been prepared by the Cabinet

consuls abroad, instructing them to
present the subjects to the govern
ments of the countries in which they
are residing, and by all means in
their power to to dissuade the peo~
pie from accepting the terms Of
fered to them by the Mormon agents.
They are definitely warned that if
they come to Utah as Mormons, they
are violating the laws of the United
States and will be dealt with accord

Visit to the olympic Range.


and wife and II. G. Esteps, has just
returned from. trip to Lake Cush-
man and the Olympic mountains,
bringing most enthusiastic reports Of
the scenery and natural beauty
of tina. region. They left Olympia
a week ago lest Monday, in a row.
boat. in which they went as far az
Oakland, whence they took Dr.
Elson's stage to Union City. FROM
thence they rowed again to Watkin-
sons place, ct the mouth of the Lii
lewaup, and proceeded over the new
trail, six mile s, to the lake. This
six miles, though surveyed, they de-
clare is eight, under the feet of the
pedestrian bent on pleasure, and
packs carried in had the faculty OF
growing enormously.
There were plenty of fish in the
lake, but they would not rise to fly,
feeding altogether upon matter sus-
peuded in the water. The party.
however, caught all the fish they
c,nI eat, splendid trout averaging
about Il pound each in weight. One
fish caught on a troll, 10y Mr.. Bag
lev, from Union City, was thirty
one inches in length, but what kind
\ of fish it was they do not say, except
that it looked like a salmon and
tasted like one.
From the lake, three of the party
assembled the mountain, that rises
steep from the shore. They had five
hours CT lard work to reach the
line where snow and timber meet,
and half hour more, after lunch,
to reach the summit. Flowers were
blooming in all the beauty of Spring,
in many places near the snow, and
more than twenty varieties were
found above the snow-line. On the
edge of one snow-tield, two deer
were seen, and one was shot at with
q revolver. After the revolver had
been emptied several times, with no
result hurtful to the deer, and the
cartridges all exploded, our brave
Nimrol found the deer SO wonderful
ly tame, that he approached to within
ten feet of it and testifes that he did
not hur. it in the least. The scene
from the noun tain top was grand;
to the noltLweSt, sea of snowy
peaks, but the Sound was covered
with cloud of smoke. Above the
stmoke, six grand snowy peaks, in
GLIDING Rainier, st. Helens and Ba-
ker, were seen to the eastward, tow
ering above the clouds and seeming
to have no connection with the earth.
The party desire to make special
mention of the hospitality ard kind
ness of Mr. Robert Watkinson, who
lives at the mouth of the Lillewaup
and whose boys cut the trail from
his house to the lake. 1t seems to
be his greatest pleasure in life to
share the good things of his garden,
land such a garden, they say, is
hard to find anywhere else in this
country, with any party that comes
to visit the lake or the beautiful falls
of the Lillewmp.

One OF the severest wind and
rain storms that has visited the At
lantic coast for years, passed over
that region on Monday, the 18th
instant. The storm seems to have
centered at Cape Hatteras and from
that point moved along the coast as
far as Eastport, Maine. A great
amount of damage was done to build
ings, shipping and other property:
At Morehead and Newbern, North
Carolina, the sea literally came up
into the streets and invaded the
buildings. The Atlantic Hotel, the
largest in the city of Newbern, was
completely destroyed, and a son of
Mayor Hughes lost his life.

GREAT expectations ere hinged on
tho California election and doubtless
its veal or woe will be felt through
out the Pacific coast. On all sides
we hear of various enterprises ready
to start into being when it is definite
ly settled that che money of Califor-
MIA capitalists is not going to be
rendered inert by unwarran:ed tax
alton. There is no great loss with
out some small gain and one item of
good that comes from the evil which
politics has thrust upon California
is the wholesale lessons which will
be learned by her sister States and
Territories on this coast. Capital,
like steam in the boiler, must not
be pent up. 1t must be allowed
free access to the great financial ma
chinery of the country that trans
forms our resources of crude mater
ial into those life sustaining elements
without which the world would be de-
populated. If we would accomplish
great feats OF enterprise, capital
should 60 hand in hand with labor.
The one is not more vital to the par
amount interests of tho vO, Id than
the other. Let these principles be
well contemplated by all concerned.

ness and exactions Of corporations.
However just such provision may
be, its expectancy isseriously doubted.
The Pacific coast is a wide field for
enterprises requiring the creative
power of capital, and its fostering
aid after they are established. What
ever, therefore, affects the sensitive
nerve leading to the money-centers,
is productive of good or evil. We,
in common with the people of Cali.
fornia, are interested in this result.
Whatever conduces to her welfare,
benefits us, and any policy which de-
presses the life-energies of the Col
den State, affects us in q correspond
ing ratio. The Constitution was
doubtless carried on this issue and
the provision which will enable the
State, for time, at least, to nullify
the treaty with China. All the
other innovations were lost to the
sight of the people in the excitement
and widely disseminated prejudice
which prevailed against monopolies
and Chinese labor. a...,
The new Constitution may ulti-
mately result in good to the State,
but indications do not inspire much
hope of an early realization of this
much-desired object. b .. -

designed. Eleven years ago, when
material and labor was cheap, it was

there is still deficit of five millions.
