1t seems tire secret behind p. B.
Johnson's memorial to divide the
Territory lays in an appOrtionment
bill which is to give eastern Wash
ingten much larger share OF repre-
ssntatives than she now has in the
Legislature; that certain ones deeply
interested are determined to intimi-
date the Puget Sound members so as
to get as large concessions as posi-
BILE. In other words it is rule or
ruin" Yet we fail to see where the
advantage comes in. The step taken
dld nothing beyond prejudicing the
case against the movers-unless,
indeed, it served to show the good
sense of the eastern members
who denounced such a measure.
When it comes to talking about
division the western portion has every
advantage; but we do not want to talk
division Let such sentiments be
ridiculed and their promoters
scorched with sarcasm, as has
very properly been done; and
let those who are anxious for
notoriety in connection with the
project be invited to take back seats
whare they will not disturb the on
ward march of our commonwealth

Our Postal Department

The administration of the post
Office department, since the discovery
Of the star route frauds. has been
highly creditable. Under Mr.. james
the stealing wis stopped, the con-
tract system was placed upon a more
careful and business-like basis, and
other valuable reforms introduced.
Judge Howe continued the good
work, and Gen. Gresham has follow
ed it up with unusual vigor and
ability. The earnings of the depart
ment last year was S45.50S. .692. and
the expenses S42,S16,7OO, leaving a
surplus OF $2,G91,G92 This amount
would have been increased by 81, ,0O0.-
600, but for the outlays made neces-
sary by the reduction of rates, and
especially by the action of congress
in readjusting large number of the
postmasters' salaries up instead of
down. These figures justify the re
duction in the matter of letter post
age, and if the increased business for
the first quarter shall continue, as
the history of the service in all coun
tries indicates that it Will, still fur
ther reductions VIII be possible and
proper. The proposition to make
the rate on drop letter where a deliv-
cry is maintained one cent instead of
two Is entitled to early consideration
The large cities pay profit on the
service and should receive the bene-
fit of any further reductions The
figures showing a decrease in the
cost of the star route service afford
plain proof of the robbery that was
carried on by Brady, Dorsey & Co.
For the last four years the cost has
been as follows: S7,32I,4f9, $685.
300, 50, ,553, $40 and S4739,46S. And
yet there have been no well founded
complaints that the star route service
has not been amply adequate to the
needs of the country traversed. The
more business and the less politics
that can be injected into the manage
ment Of tie postal department, the
better viii it be for the service and
for the people.

AGAINST TERRIToRIAL DIVISION
The old mania for the division of
Washington Territory has again
seized few people. They propose
to split the commonwealth down the
backbone-the summit of the Gas
cades. This would be an unfortu-
nate "livy' indeed. As now con-
stituted the Territory has all the
elements OF great State. Split it as
now proposed and the fragments Will,
for reasons. too obvious tc mention.
each forever remain a ''weak sister"
Division would be unwise, no matter
how the line was run. But if it cut
the Territory from east to west, it
would leave the sections in possession
of ;aried resources and the elements
out of which might be developed fair
States. 1t will be a long time before
the citizens of Washington will sub
nit silently to having their Territory
subjected to any carving process. -

Long ere this it has been tele-
graphed over the civilized world that
Washington Territory has enfran
chised her women. Nearly every
, newspaper in the Territory has ex-
pressed an opinion upon the subject,
and with the single exception of the
Olympia Transcript, they have re
ioiced over the event. No political
revolution is expected, and it will
probably be a few years before the
ladies get sufficient interest in politics
to poll anything near a full vote; but
it remains for them to demonstrate
their appreciation of the ballot, and
to show their ability to WELD it for
public good, by informing them
!. selves more fully in those matters
that have hitherto been considered
exclusively mems affairs. We be
lieye they will, Many of them have
voted for years in school elections:
are there not other public interests
equally as important demanding
their attention and cooperation in
order to secure the best results? Let
us hear no more about "dabbling in
the filthy pool of politics." Let our
wives, mothers and sisters purify and
elevate by their refining influence
where heretofore corrupt influences
have been exercised to an extent far
too great compatible with good
morals

VALLEJO, Cal, Nov. I9.-The follow

written on board the U. S. SIoop-of-war
Ranger, off Acapulco, Nov. 9, 1888: I'VE
arrived here on Monday, Nov. 9th, and
the moment we dropped anchor, the
Consul came on board aud told the
Captain that the port was infected with
yellow fever; that there were one hun
dred cases that week, and twenty-eight
deaths during the Saturday before we
arrived. We got up anchor at once and
moved outside the harbor, and had coal
sent out TO our ship in lighters. We then
white-washed the outside of the ship.
We have since learned that the fever is
at La Union and Panama. BY the ad-
vice of the doctor, the Captain teIe-
graphed the Navy Department that the
disease is raging along the coast. and
the expectation is that weawill be sent

= sFsemsthesn esneWspaper reports, which
come from NE Ffank James sstrial,
the public win be apt to form very
erroneous notions, of Gen. 10 Shelby,
the confederate who recently testi-
fed In James behalf. Shelby is in
every sense 8 square, true man. s He
is no law breaker, but he is the sort
of person who would receive and har-
bor friend, even if that friend were
fleeing from justice. He is the soul
of hospitality, Of cordially and fidel-
ity. He abominates treachery, and
this is why he took pains to insult
Dick Liddel, the member. of the
James gang who has turned states
evidence Shelby fought side by
side with the James boys years ago,
and that was enough in his eyes to
entitle them To. his friendship. They
came to him wounded and starving
and he gave them shelter and food
he would have died rather than be-
trayed them. Shelby is no hypo-
crite; he is a brave, conscientious,
bluff, hearty, outspoken fellow,
whose heart, has always kept his
purse empty. 8 That he is erratic goes
without saying, but tlathe ais eapa-
BILE of a dishonest thought or q cra-
ven action none who have known the
man will permit to be limited.
