9rrved at midnight, at the Central
Hotel, and it was truly a marvel Of
elegance and artistic taste in its line,
'ug honor to the proprietor Of that
s,'ablishment and credit TO the town.
There were numerous impoTtan,
features Of the celebration that de-
serve mention in this connection,
such as canoe racing, foot racing and
other kindred sports; but we have
not space TO dwell spon them. As
FAR as we could learn, the strangers
were all highly pleased, and would
come again If they had a chance.
Quite a Eumber Of the Port Discov-
cry people we're in town, as we'll as
some from Port Ludlow, Chimacum
and WILDLY Island. The Victoria
people all seemed to enjoy their trip
exceedingly, and proved themselves
as patriotic as Uncle Sans most de.
voted citizens. We cannot close
without expressing admiration for
the energetic citizens who took the
lead in this matter and contributed
most by their industry and enter.
prise to its gratifying success. Es-
pecially were the efforts of Messrs.
Dyer and Holcomb, of the commit.
tee on collation., deserving of praise.
With fidelity to the best interests
of the people, and an honest pride
in their duties, they went to work
with will and rested not until all
had been served with a repast that
was completely satisfactory even to
the most fastidious. The liberality
OF the good people Of our town may
be understood from the fact that
rearly everything for the dinner was
contributed, and that there was
plenty and to spare. The celebra.
ton wall long be remembered by
those who participated in it.

WE were necessarily compelled to
break into the usual routine of of.
fee duties this week, in order to
properly exercise large amount Of
patriotism on the Fourth--hence the
Argus was delayed several hours iu
making its appearance. However,
as the ga lor,ious Fourth only comes
once a Bvear, please don't growl,
friends. We had jolly time.

FROM Mr.. G. F. CIapp, just up
from Duogeness, we learn that the
people Of that vicinity enjoyed the
Fourth in their usual demonstrative
style. A number were in attendance
from Port Discovery, and from other
adjacent points. The exercises were
varied, and afforded a "portion in
due season" for each Of those whose
taste for enjoyment ran in different
directions.

A QUESTION or FAIR DEALING.
Olympia Courier. y

Olympia "Couricr"l
Judging from appearances there is
a preconcerted effort to work up a
"boom" in Eastern Washington for
J. b. Allen, Esq, as Republican can.
didate for delegate, and part Of the
tactics OF the managers OF the move.
menl seems to be to create and fos-
ter a spirit Of hostility toward Gov
ernor Ferry and the ''ring," This
seems an act of bad faith; for it 10
well known that Governor Ferry
openly announced, weeks ago, that
be was not a candidate and would
not be-. under any circumstances,
even if the nomination should be
rendered him.
We have never known the attempt
to make friends for one man by at
tacking aud villifying another, to
succeed. Personally we have always
had the kindliest feelings toward
Mr.. Allen, and we do not intend TO
champion the cause of one man or
oppose another as candidate for
delegate until after tho nomination,
but the course of Mr.. Aliens friends
including the men who are writing
friendly editorials for him, and at the
same time attacking Governor Ferry
and the "ring," if persisted in, will
at once array large part OF the Re.
publican party against Mr.. Allen, as
it would against any man or men
who attempted to reach high office
by destroying others whom they
thought stood in the way Of their
success.
What we refer to his certainly
shown q want Of discretion among
the leaders of the movement, and
we hope to hear no more of it. The
man who seeks the nomination a,
the hands of the Republican conven.
tion and to go before the people,
next fall, for their suffrages, must dc
SO on his own merits and not because
he is unfriendiy to another man or
set of men. Again, we repeat that
we have full authority for the state
ment that Governor Ferry is not
now, and will not be a candidate;
and the enemies of "the ring" can
govern themselves accordingly.

brstions at other points on the Sound,
but think it safe TO say thai Port
Townsend took the lead this year in
the magnitude Of her patriotic dem
onstrations on the memorable Ma.
tional birthday. There were up
wards OF 800 strangers in town,
most of whom came from Victoria.
The day opened bright and clear,
after dense bank Of fog had been
dispelled by the morning sun. The
salute at sunrise awakened hoes
among the "hills about jerusalem"
that aroused slumbering though pat
riotic sons OF toll and foretold day
of unprecedented enjoyment. Long
before the regular sports of the day
began, eager pleasurs.seekers were
promenading our streets, looking
for the "ball to commence rolling"
The boat race from Union wharf
was won by Mr.. Andrew Bogatte,
there being but two contestants--he
and Mr.. J. Mcmahon. 1t was little
better than a farce. The steamer
Nellie arrived early, bringing the
Gamble base ball club and other
passengers. The Annie Stewart
brought crowd from up, Sound, al d
the Starr came loaded down with a
ro!lcking delegation from Her Maj
esty's dom Mons on Vancouver Isl.
and. The
CALITHUMPIAN PARADE,
at o'clock, was one of the leading
features of the day and created no
little amusement. About 10 O'Clock,
the immense crowd of townspeople
and visitors began to assemble on
the spacious and pleasant pic mic
grounds that had been prepared near
Mr.. Drummond's house, Just over
looking the Bay. When all had
gathered around, the grand stand
was occupied and the programme
was opened by the nnouncemens
from Hon. G. M. Bradshaw, Presi-
dent of the day. that prayer would
be offered by Rev. w. |. Cosper.
After this, the Declaration Of Inde-
pendence was rendered by Mr.. G.
M. Haller in a stentorian voice and
dramatic style--not, however, until
the new national anthem, "Colum
bia," had been rendered by the choir
under the direction of Prof. Roberts.
This piece had not been sung in
public on the Sound before. At the
close Of the reading, s"America'' was
rendered by the band in lusty tones,
when DR.. Minor,
ORATOR OF THE DAY.
was introduced. The address was
a refreshing departure from the us
uai course Of fine spun argument
and bombast' commonly INDUCED in
by public speakers on such occasions.
This closed the literary and musical
exercises, when sumptuous free
lunch was served for the hungry
multitude. At noon q rousing sa-
lutte was belched forth from con-
venient battery. In the horse race
the prize Of $50 was won by Mr..
Jas. Salley's mare, though the con-
test was close one. There were
but two entries, one by Mr.. T. NJ.
Hammond and one by Mr.. SalIey.
The base ball game in the after noon
created some interest and enthusi.
asm. 1t resulted in a victory for the
Port Gamble boys, on score of %

GRAND BAIL,
at the new Masonic Hall, was the

OLD Folks CONCERT AT MoUSDsvILLE. =
The Moundsyille Old Folks concert, given
last night, was really q musical treat, as a
number Of persons from Wheeling, who
attended, will testify. The participants
from Wheeling were Miss A. O. Tracy;
Mrs. Joseph Hall; Mr.. A. w. Donel; MIR.
". B. Howell; Mr.. Oscar Seeley; Mr., JOS
eph Hall; A. II. Beach, director; W. FL.
Sheib, accompanied. They were assisted
BY numbered ladies and gentlemen from
Moundsville who, like the folks from
Wheeling, were dressed in ancient cos
tune. 4 number OF anthems were sung
in almost unexcepionable style, amongst
which we're some OF the old standard ones
from the Carmina Sacra, such as
"The Earth is the Lords. and the
Full ness thereof; "Beiore Jehovah's
Awful Throne; Jerusalem my Happy
Home: plunged in q Gulf Of dark
Despair" etc. Other numbers were as
follows: Miss A. G. Tracy sang "Kervy
Dance" by NIalloy, and within mile Of
Edinboro," excellently; Mrs.LHall beauti-
full solo, "Jesus lover OF my SOUL the
melody by Gluck Mr.. seeley," Trust in the
Lord" by Stigelli, and dublin Bayi" Mr..
Donel, 40 Whittier fly the Stars?" by Hat
tan; Mr.. Sheib, THE soft Southern
Breeze" from Bomby'si "Rebekkah;" Mr..
Howell, "rhe old Sexton;" Mr.. Beach,
"Resignation," by Miss Lindsay. Two
exquisite quartettes, one male quartette,
~ greet thee, love-" by Messrs, shetb,
Donel, Beach and Howell; the other "Our
Choir" by King, sung by Miss. Tracy,
Mrs. Hall, Mr.. Donel and Mr.. Howell,
fairly brought down the house. Applause
was literally bestowed, and the encomiums
Of praise were very fairly distributed. At
the close the audience assisted In sing
ling the good old tune america"
Mr.. Beach deserves great credit Tor the
careful manner in which he rehearsed the
anthems with the choir, and to Mr.. Sheib
great praise is due for his excellent &C.
Compartment. Hs, Uncertain lines, isun-
doubtedly the best accompanist we have
in the city. The Moundsville people were
delighted, and would doubtless welcome
our musicians again most heartily.
