A BIG RABBIT aKrN TRADE

New Zealand's rabbit skio trade haS'
attracted the attention Of the Unlted|
States Consul at Auckland, and Il -
tainly has points Of interest. Ten yo1fa
ago there were only about SO, 600 skins
exported, and now there are $500, O0O,,
with value Of about 100000. Still
more striking Is the fact that twenty.
years ago there was not a rabbit on tho.
island. A few pairs Of gray rabbits
were taken there hy gentleman hard
driven for game to shoot, and 10 pror
life were they that in n few years theirj
descendants had eaten up great pArt.
Of the vegetation, destroying milliona
Of dollars worth Of property causing
sheep to die Of starvation by the thous-
ands, and threatening to ruin agricul.,
ture. The colonists employed dogs 70
kill them, but they still multiplied r..
ter than they could bs destroyed; then
they resorted to ferrets, weasels and
poison, and this latter was efIectual,,
though scores Of thousands Of sheep
also fell victims to il. 1t is believed
that s0,000,000 rabbi 8 year aro
killed with these appliances. Making
the best Of the misfortune, the skins
Of the pes.s were turned INTO an article
Of commerce as material for furs. and
one of the markets is the United States.
which fact has caused the Consul to
tell the story. 1t reads, however, rath-
er more like chapter of jules Verns
than like on ordinary Consular report

SYNOPSIS OF THE PLATFORM.
The platform of the Republican party
of Washington Territory recognize that
the success and prosperity of the nation
as well as the Territory is due to the
principles of the party as established
and carried out, and we here pledge ,
new devotion TO those principles. Tht
death Of our late President, James A
Garfield, at the hand Of an assassin W,
regard not only as national calemity
but loss to humanity, which is de
plored by the whole people. The ad
ministration of President Arthur W,
most heartily approve. The able patri
cts of the Republican party favor al
laws tending to the education of th'
people, development Of our resources
and to that end We favor the supper
of the common schools AID c'he nsti
tuiions of learning, building.oi rail
roads and other means Of transporta
ton; the encouragement Of agriculture
commerce and manufactures; believin;
all men equal before the law, We ar
opposed to granting special privilege
or exemptions te any; that taxation
should be equal and uniform and tha
all property should bear equally tn
burden in supp orting the government
we favor the early admission of tn
Territory as a State, which we believ
it is fully entitled to, hy reason of pop
ula,ion and wealth; that while we ar
in favor and urge the advisability O
including Northern Idaho within tn
limits of the State of Washington, W
are opposed to making the question
: condition to delay our admission t
Statehood; we fully appreciate the e|
fort. made by Hon. T. II, Brents fo
admission, his continpous labors for tn
development of the Territory and tn
prosperity Of its citizens and fully ell
dorsc his action therein, especially i
his recent efforts to secure admission
