The Port Townsend Argus is making
its heaviest fight against John Mo-
Reavy, Democratic nominee for the
Council. 1t objects TO him on account
Of some pilot legislation in 1877. We
object to Mr.. McReavy. too. but on no
other ground than that he is Demo
crat, and we cannot afford Mt this juno
ture a Democratic Legislature. We
would like to give Mr.. McReavy little
help, but his politics is against him, and
we are compelled to desist. The risk of
a Democratic Legislature is imminent,
and there is entirely too much at stake
to allow the election of single member
Of that party which can be prevented.

Some weeks ago we briefly reviewed
an article contributed by Mr.. John Bige
Low to .Harpsr's for October, and tool
issue with that gentleman upon his gen
eral proposition, which was that Mexico
would prove failure, in the direction
of profitable field for investment in
railroad securities, and that, moreover
IL would be found that the commerce Of
Mexico neither would or could prove re-
munerative to the United States.
1t is pleasant to know that We vert
not mistaken as TO our views Of the
value of Mr.. Bigelow's article al State
paper. We again take occasion to say
that more utterly worthless "e1posi-
ton" Of any subject, than Mr.. Bigelow'f
attempt to state the Mexican question
We have not sesn unless We except Prof
Szrgent's wild theories about tree cul-
ture'' which recently. was also subjected
to review in these columns.
We learn from the Alta California OF
the 18th ult, that the Mexican Minister
at Washington, Senior Romero, has re-
piled to Mr.. Bigelow's crude and callow
theorizing on the subject of Mexican re-
sources. And, it may be added that the
representative Of the Mexican Repub-
lie has very efectually disposed Of Mr.
Bigelov's unnecessary talk.
1t is hardly necessary to recapitulate
his argument. We may allude to one,
however. Referring to Mr.. Bigelow's
assertion that the Vera Cruz and City Of
Mexico Railroad, 293 miles long, pays
only 8 per cent. ON the cost OF construc-
ton. the Mexican Minister shows tina.
the road cost the extravaRant sum of
100000, four times as much as it
could be built for. He further shows
that the earnings Of the Mexican road
last year was &c. 9s per mile, while the
Central Pacific earned only 1858, and
the Union Pacific, only 5000. Senior
Romero, according to the Alta, further
shows that
During the past year two American
lines have been pushed into Mexico
from Laredo, and though they have pro
crossed but short distance the customs
collections increased suddenly from
$4,000 to 81, 10000. This he looks GU
as an indication of what may be ex-
pected in the way Of increased trade
from the United States. Some very fiat.
tering prospects are held out, and he in
sists that increased transportation ia
cilities will enable Mexico 20 send to the
United States the $l50,000, 600 worth OF
coffee and sugar which now comes from
Cuba and Brazil every year and take
her pay in manufactures. He wholly
disagrees with Mr.. Bigelow's idea that
Mexico will not develop a fourishine
agriculture"
In our former article on this subject
We alluded to the present, and still
greater prospective importance of the
lumber and fish trade of this section
with Mexico. We have not conversed
with leading lumber manufacturer on
the Sound upon the subject, who has not
said explicitly that he regarded Mexico
rs one of the most important of our
commercial outposts. 1t il pleasant, we
repeat, 10 know that we were right in
our views Of Mr.. Bigelow's ill considered
TRADE against Mexico, and it is still
pleasanter to know Puget Sound can
confidently reckon upon not only con-
tinuance but an increase Of her present
prosperous trade with that section.

WINTER PROSPECTS.

The stockmen of ChOteau county have
had no occasion up to the present time to
complain Of severe weather, or weather III
any way unfaYorable to stock. Last year
the month of December was unusually
fine, but there was i scarcity Of snow
which caused the cattle to suffer some for
want of water; but this year we have had
snow enough to satisfy the cattle, and with
the exception of the November storm,
which never fails to occur between the
10th and Both Of the last Fall month, we
have had no cold weather to speak Of.
1t is singular fact that, although . ref
erence to the weather record of almost any
preceding season, will furnish fairly
safe guide for the current year, there are
few persons in Montana, even among the
oldest residents, who appear to understand
our climate or care to predict the Weathei,
Of the coming season. While llot claim
ing to be even we'll posted regarding
weather inspections, we have noticed that

storm is severe, the winter will be severe
and, gice uersa.
The November storm Of this year
was cold enough while it lasted, but it was
of such short duration and has been fol-
lowed bg such exceedingly fine weather
that we regard it as The foreruaner of per
haps sharp, but short winter, and an
early and wet spring. As last year was
also very favorable to the cattle. and sheep
industries another favorable year will

~ LIE --latest returns from the State cleo
tions do not materially affect the result
ae. reported by the Eastern Journals a
nonth ago. The list Of new Governors
aeill stands thirteen Democrats and two
Republicans, the former chosen generally
by very large majoritiea, and both the lat
ter by very small ones. James B. Grant,
the Democratic Governor Of Colorado,
wag chosen byabont $4,000 majority. Sec
retary Teller, who has just returned from
that State, asserts that the Republicans
have won substantial victory, and the
defeat Of mr.. Campbell, their candidate
for Governor, was caused by the disaffec-
ton and bad faith Of certain Republican
leaders, wholn the nominating Conven-
ton pledged themselves to support the
candidates selected, yet as soon as it APP
peared that their slace was defeated, they
bolted, and used every means to defeat the
regular ticket. The rest OF the Republi-
can State ticket was elected, and both
branches of the Legislature remain in the
hands Of the Republicans.
