of several teams were tied together and

the girl he took the lines and fastened them
in similar manner, and she was hauled up
only slightly injured. Metcalfe followed
after the lines had been let down again.

AN ENGLISH VIEW OF AMERICANS
d. Americans Lose Their Americanism
by Crossing the Atlantic?
London World. April l2th.

London Norld, April l2th.
But after all it is the Americans who form
the most numerous contingent among our
social swallows. Each spring they come in
greater numbers than the one before it, and
this year they promise to be more numerous
and less select than ever. The cabins in the
best steamers are all engaged till June, and
already the hotels principally affected by
our profusely dollared cousins are filling
rapidly. To a well-to do American a visit
to "4 arrup" is pretty much what the grand
tour was in the days Of our grandfathers. 1t
is part of his education, a social topping
off essential to every person who at home
affects to drive a trotting horse, live In a
"brown stone house with high stoop," and
sleep in Beecher's tabernacle of a Sunday.
Yet to most Americans Lon ION is only an
incident OF their travels. Paris is their real
headquarters. There life is more cosmo-
politah than here, and money commands the
enaee to kind Of world which in London
would be unappreachable to the Neva a
silver-miner or the Cincinnati pork-butcher
1t must also be remembered that, glibly
as we pirate about the AngloSaxon
race, only a certain section of Americans are
of English origin. Millions OF them are
Germans, Scandinavians and French to
whom England is accordingly only one of
the "effete European despotisms." The best
of the New World stock is, however British,
and among these worthy people IL IS a per-
feet craze to unravel their ancestry. Half
their holiday is spent searching, like Japhet,
for their fathers in visiting the home of their
ancestors or in perusing the apocrypha
which ingenious genealogists compile for
their qualification. To the innkeepers these
American swallows are horde Of wealth
They travel in style and eat of the best.
They buy freely and easy victims of The
picture esler and the manufacturer OF
modern antiques. Yet apart from the COM
mercial aspect of the American immigration,
it is of inestimable political advantage.
The visitors return wiser and more tolerant
than they came. They see the kernel of the
Irish question great deal better than some
of those who chatter over it; and in their
Language, in the arrangement of their houses,
in their modes of thought, pasiiner, feasts
and fashions the travelled Yaokee returns so
impressed with the stamp Of Europe as to
form a favorite butt for the anathemas OF
the monkeys who have not been among men.
1t is indeed questionable whether, socially at
least, Europe is not affecting America in a
more remarkable manner than, despite all
the talk to the country, America is iufuenc-
ing the old continent.

IT is gratifying to the many friends
or DR.. Minor to note the spirit of
liberality with which he has labored
for the success of the republican par
ty in the past, irrespective Of person
al claims. During the past ten or
twelve years he has probably spent
more money fer, and devoted more
time to, the success of repubhcanism
in Washington Territory than has
any other one man within our boun-
daries--and yet he has never been
honored with nomination of any
kind. Twice he has been the only
prominent candidate of Puget Sound
republicans before the territorial con
vention, for the nomination OF Dele
gate; twice he has found the choice
of the party falling upon another
and he has graciously acquiesced in
stead Of going home to sulk, as many,
even professional politicians, would
do We predict that he will be in the
front Of the battle, as usual, and that
Puget Sound will roll up her usual
majority for Mr.. Brents. Eastern
Washington can hardly claim the
Delegatcship always, and when the
tide does turn, as it must, DR.. Minor
will be the coming man. We had
hoped he would be nominated this
year-yet neither he nor his friends
have cause to be discouraged The
future is bright with promise.

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

The Republican party of Washington
Territory recognize that the success and
prosperity of the Nation, as well as Of
the Territory, are due to the principles
OF the party, as established and carried
out, and we here pledge anew our devo-
ton to those principles.
The death Of our late President, James
A. Garfield, by the hand of an assassin,
we regard not only National calamity,
but loss 10 humanity, which is deplor-
ed by the whole people.
The administration OF President Ar
thur we most heartily approve of as able
and patriotic.
The Republican party, as the party of
progress and reform, is in favor Of al
laws tending to the education of The
people and the development of our re-
sources, and to that end we favor the
support Of our common schools and
other institutions of learning, the build
ing OF railroads and other means OF
transportation, and the encour; cement
OF agriculture, commerce and manufac-
tures
Believing that all men are equal under
the law, we are opposed to granting
pDtIlti VI NACNlJ' w ui1'
and that taxation should be equal and
uniform and that all p operty should
bear its equal burden for the support Of
the Government.
We are in favor of the early admission
OF our Territory as a State. to which we
believe we are fairly entitled by reason
of our population, our wealth and our
firm devotion to the best interests OF the
Republic.
That while we are in favor OF and urge
the advisability of including Northern
Idaho within the limits of the Sta , of
Washington, we are opposed to making
that question condition, to delay our
admission to Statehood; that we, how
Yer, earnestly urge Congress to include
North Idaho in the limits of the State of
Washington.
That we fully appreciate the efforts
made by our Delegate, Thomas H.
Brents, for the admission Of our Terri
tory as State, and his continuous la
bors for the development Of our Terri
tory and the prosperity Of her citizens,
and fully indorse his action therein, and
especially his recent efforts to secure our
admission into the Union.

The republican party of New
York. seems to have fallen into
the tolls of railroad monopo.
lists. The nomination Of Secre-
tary Folger for Governor is openly
claimed as Il victory for Gould, and
for the administration working in the
interest of Conkling and the railroad
magnates. Whether this be true or
not, we will not here discuss, except
AS to appearances. But considering
the inevitable adjudication of the
rights of labor and capital, that must
be the work of the successful party
of the fpture in the United STATES, it
is we'll to have care as to keeping
party skirts clear of contamination.
The republican party has been Gee
Of progressive IDEAS in the past, else
il would not have been successful. 1t
had the courage to espouse the cause
of human rights and PIT down slav-
cry, secure equality in suffrage and
political rights, and act on pr'n"iple
in every national contest involving
the best Interests of the people. Its
successful career has attracted to it
the wealthy monopolists OF The land
who desire to take advantage OF its
success to further pecuniary ends.
Gigantic schemes in the interest of
capital are put in motion by design
ing voes who affiliate with Che repub-
lican party simply because it promis-
rs easier victory for them. As u rule
capitalists care more for Their own
gain than fo, the principles of any
party, hence their devotion to repub
licanism has an improper motive be-
hind il. Such members are danger
Gus ones for any political party to
have-dangerous for the party-be-
cause they are sure to prostitute
party influence for private gain
whenever opportunity offers. The
people are the true source Of power.
Any political party that ceases to ex-
list for the protection and benefit of
the masses has outlived its useful
ness, and the sooner it is buried the
better. We do not believe the repub-
lican party of this nation has yet
completed its mission, by any means.
There are achievements ahead as
brilliant as any it has won in the
past, and we hope to live to see it
espouse every question effecting hu-'
man veal or woe, in manner that
will add fresh lustre to its already
profuse laurels.
