MONEY In IT.-There is probably no
branch of farm industry that will pay so
well ON this Coast as dairying and stock
raising. Nor is there any part of the north
west coast better adapted for such pursuit
than this Territory. The moist climate,
mild winters, and abundance of feed, makes
stock raising less of risk than in other To-
calities less favored by nature, while the
present high price of cattle, a price that
must of necessity continue for some time,
insures large returns on the amount invested.
The CONCERT given at Marsh's Hall on
Wednesday evening of last week for the
benefit Of Arthur Baker was largely at
tended, and grand success in every respect.
The 2lst Infantry band executed its pieces
admirably, and the City band, without a
doubt, done very well indeed. The various
solos by musicians of the Infantry band
were also we'll received. The quartette,
"Come where my love lies dreaming" by
Mrs. E. Bateman, Miss A. Steward, Messrs.
knight and Gordon, was highly appreciated,
as was also "Under the snow" by the same.
The vocal solo, "When IT'S Moonlight, u
sang by Mrs. Bateman, was really charm
ing, and elected much applause and many
encores, and on being encored the second
time she was the recipient of an elegant
boquet, thrown on the stage from the audi

cuted, and all are deserving of much praise.
Too much praise, however, cannot be be.

Jay Hubbell and the congressman for

the result of their efforts to perpetuate a
Republican majority in the House The
disgraceful methods which they adopt
ed to carry the doubtful districts have
lost them enough of the "safe" ones to
give the control of the House to the
Democrats. In the returns which greet
them this morning they can see the
country's opinion of confiscating assess
ments, extorted corruption funds, and
an organized attempt to make dyDas-
ty of office holders perpetual. It is a
costly lesson, and, il the Republican
managers do not learn heap from it,
