How IT ADvANcED.-Among the many
good stories told by Mr.. Stacy about
the rise of Seattle real estate, is
tho following: The lot on the corner of
Front aud Madis0u streets belonged to
the Kinds heirs, ard Was advertised for
sale. Mr.. Stasy bid ON it, and run it up
to $a45O, John H. Marshall, who was ia
terested in the estate. bid $500, and it
was knocked down to him. He borrow
cd the money at ~ per cent. to pay for
it, and after holding It short time got
sick of his bargain, and sold it to Stacy
for $500. After holding the property
u short time, Mr.. Stacy sold it to w. d.
Scott aud Capt. Wm. Cove, for $2700.
I.ess than year afterward Mr.. Stacy
again bought the property, paying 5000
for il, and at oncs transferred it to Mr..
y. Gatxert for $500. This same prop
erty o0ald cot be bought today for
$4,000 All these different transfess
have taken plaes during the past three
or four years, and serve 70 show tho
advances that have taken place in Front
street real estate during that period.

Two bills relating to the establish
ment Of government telegraph In con-
neotion with the Postal Department
have thus far been introduced into Con-
gress. In the Senate. Senator Edmunds
has championed the measure, and in
tho lower House Mr.. sumner. of Cali
foEnia, has the honor Of placing a Till
before that body. Both bills aim to ef-
fect identical results, but vary quite
widely in detail. We have consistently
advocated the enactment Of some Law
by which the msreiless grip in which
the telegraph service Of this country h
held might be relaxed and unlooscd.
The strike Of telegraph operators last
summer gave the public clearer in

viously been attainable, aud from every

country came demand that effective
measures be taken by the government
to relieve the public from the onerous
tax imposed for the transmission of
messages, and to prevent q second in
tsrruption TO the business Of the coun-
try such ~ eccarred last summer. The
st. Paul Pioneer Press thus Analyses and

vice of the khedive on the Slaughter.
NEW YORK. Nov. 24.-Stone Pasha, or General
Stone, who was formerly an officer in the
Khedives army, and who is now living in this
city, was conversed with to-day upon the subject
of the reported great battle in the Soudan. Gen
eral Stone said: when l first read the accounts
last night did not believe them. for have too
often heard similar accounts when the only

diers as well as civilians become demoralized

without DOUBT, but the followers OF FL Medhi
are set OF fanatics; they are fighting for what
they consider a righteous cause, aud believe il
they are killed in battle they will go at once to
Beayen. So you see FL Medhi can demand the
sacrifice OF their lives with impunity. Made up as
his army IS of negroes, Arabs. ana other of the
wild tribes OF this savage country. they are pre-
emineDtly fighters. and they do fight to the death.
Thus fanaticiSm upsets the discipline OF the
Egyptian army. IL FL Mehdi succeeds in mastering
KhariOum. there is but little doubt in my mind
that he will push on toward Cairo. between
which city and Khartosm there is no good
rest content with the conquest of Soudan any more
than he did with former victories. The defeat at
Soudan was due to a weak Government at Cairo,
an insufhciency OF force under Hicks Pasha. and
the fanalcism OF the rebels. Either positive meas
ures for the suppression OF the rebellion must be
taken at once or the False Prophet must gain that
power for which he is fighting. In spite OF all

the privileges immunities of citizens, but only
prohibition OF the exercise OF any power abridg-

The other amendment, known as the Fifteenth,
