Though it is announced from time
to time that work will soon be pushed
by the Northern Pacific on the Cas-
cade division, it may be feared that
the report is much too sanguine. 1t
is we'll known in fact, that the COM
pany has not the money with which
to build the road, and that as yet no
resource appears through which II
can get it. A small force is kept at
work In the Yakima country, but only
just force enough to support the
claim that work is still in progress.
Though proposals have been asked
and received for new contracts. to
cover considerable part of the line,
there is well grounded information
that this does not signify that actual
contracts will now be let for pushing
the work, since the company has not
in hand nor can IL raise the money
necessary for the undertaking. The
sum required is not less than eight
millions, perhaps ten. But as the
company wants to hold the land
grant it endeavors to make the best
possible showing to congress. 1t is
due, however, to the people most in
terested in the matter er-we mean
those who occupy the country to he
traversed by the road-that the stu
alton be made known, SO that thep
may not be misled or disappointed.
1t is to be regretted that there is at
present small prospect that the money
cln be raised to build the road.-Or-
egOnidn.

CALIFORNIA; Worlds Fair.

The projected California worlds
fair appears likely to utterly fail.
The San Francisco Bulletin, of the
10th, publishes interviews with a
large number of wealthy, representa-
tive men and the result is not as en-
couaging as might be desired. The
general opinion was that creditable
fair wonld cost something like So
100000, and that the amount could
not be realized. All agreed, how
ever, that it would be a grand thing,
and that if successfully carried out it
would be immensely beneficial to the
state, but in view of its great cost the
attempt was premature, and would
result in a failure. Among the most
sensible views given were expressed
by Mr.. p B. Cornwall, who said:
My Judgment is that the popula-
ton of the entire coast is about equal
to that of New York City, a radius of
five miles. While manufacturing is
getting a good foothold and while
members of enterprising and desir-
able manufacturing establishments
are making creditable progress, yet
as point of fact, the magnitude and
facilities for furnishing such articles
as would be suitable for exhibit at a
worlds fair compare with the fac.li-
ties for production, and the produc-
ton in other countries about as our
population compares. So if we at
tempt worlds fair we must appre-
ciate the fact that the great majority
of the exhibits must lie brought a
long distance from the centers of
population and to a comparatively
new and unsettled country.

Charges AGAINST Hewitt.
WASHINGTON, Feb -. - Abram S.
Hewitt appeared before the foreign af-
fairs committee of the house yesterday
morning, and explained the part played
by him in the matter of the passage
of the resolutions asking Great Britain
to grant a respite to oO'Donnell,m murderer
of Carey, the Irish informer The Eng
lish government refused to grant the re-
quest of the house, and O'Donnell was
hanged. He also was accused of hav-
ing informed the British minister that
the resolution introduced by him did
/ not reflect the sentiments of the people
of the United States on this question.
and that he presented it toavert the in
! PRODUCTION of resolutions or a more OBJ
| jectionable character. The feeling that
he tamccred with the dignity of congress
and committed an act Of gross impro-
| prlety became so strong that Bramm OF
Pennsylvania introduced resolution
asking tie foreign affairs committee to
m Ike an investigation of the charges.

The high and mighty Roscoe
Conkliug has emerged from his late
political obscurity TO observe that the
Republican party is going to the
dogs because it has killed off its
own leaders" that it Is an army
without generals &c. We would
like to suggest to his majesty that
about the time Il certain New York
senator resigned his seat in a childish
pet because he could not run" the
Garfield administration, there was a
political suicide on the part Of said
lordly gentleman from New York.
He was possessed of a certain kind
Of ability as leader. greater, per
haps, than that OF any other man in
the party, But the party didn't
shoot him; he shot himself cut off
his nasal proboscis TO spite his face
and now the same childish petulance
impels him to blame somebody else
for the deed But the party Is not
without leaders. Its Shermans, Lo-
gans, Blaines, Lincolns, Arthur5 and
other leaders will be ION deck in
good season and with able manage
ment. Perhaps the gentleman from
New York may hear yet that the
army is worrying along without him.
TERRITORIAL REPUBLICAN CoNvEN-
ESTIoN.-The Republican National
Convention is called to meet at Chi
cago, Ill, on the % of June next, to
nominate candidates for President
and Vice President. The call speci-
fies that two delegates shall be allow
ed to each Territory. Delegates at
large shall be chosen by popular
delegate state conventions, called not
less than twenty days published
notice, and held not less than thirty
nor more than sixty days before the
time fixed for the meeting of the
National Convention Allowing
thirty days for the shortest time re
quired between the meeting of our
Territorial Convention and that of
the National Convention, it will be
seen that the former must be held
not later than May Sd. Notice must
be published prior to the holding of
that convention at least twenty days,
which means not later than April
18th. 1t will be seen that the time
for holding primaries and county
conventions is drawing very near.
Our Territorial central committe does
not seem to have made a move yet,
and there is o suspicion that some
body has a secret plan to delay the
call so that only certain pre- arranged
counties will be represented, thus
giving the schemers chance to work
their own sweet wills instead of get
ting the fullest and fairest possible
expression from the people.
There may or there may not
be feline in the meal tub; but
notice is hereby served that if there
is somebody will hear a gentle
racket before the question is done

unbiased expression of choice This

Our BOARD OF TRADE. The movement
which found expression and took def
mite shape Saturday evening bids
fair to prove of immense benefit to
Port Townsend Commercial oppor-
tunities have been slipping by us
for years. just for want of united
action on our part to protect the in
terests of the place, open up new
channels of trade, advertise our ad-
vantages abroad and bring to public
notice the resources of this part of
Puget Sound. 1t was an ARGUS re-
porter who discovered and gave to
the public the information that there
was room for fifty more families in
the southeastern portion of Jefferson
county. Through the same channel,
likewise, it has been thrown into cur
rent literature that vacant govern
ment land of value for agricultural
purposes could be found in quaint
ties to suit immigrants, throughout
almost the entire length of Clalam
county clear down to the already ia
nous and fertile Quileute valley; that
more good ''claims" were yet to te
had in Island county, etc. But all
that this paper can accomplish is but
moiety compared with results at
tainable by live board of trade such
as is being organized here. There is
vast and important work before
this local board of trade, if it would
perform its legitimate functions in a
vigorous aud thorough manner. 1t
is necessary to gather all information
of value to the public concerning
every part of the surrounding coun
try naturally tributary to Port Town
send: to put sGch information into
clear and comprehensive form and
take such steps as will put tho same
into the hands OF the hundreds and
thousands OF prospective settlers com
ing TO the Sound during the summer.
We want our share of the incoming
home seekers; we want to tell them in
reliable way lwhere to find the good
land, what its leading characteristics
are, how to reach it, &C. We want
off ;er5 of the Board to be posted"
about obtaining employment for me-
chlnics, investment for capitalists,
markets for produce, and many other
things the public wants to know. We
want to see that local steamboat lines
and mail routes radiating from here
are controlled here, and that the es-
tablishing of new lines is encouraged
wherever local trade offers induce
ments. Steamboat monopolies also

plain terms that fares and freight

could attend to the wants OF both
Houses. With a State Printing Office
across the street, there is no occasion for
employing two enrolling and four copy
ing clerks. We presume it will seem in
credible to most of our readers that for
every two members Of the Legislature
there is one attache and the fraction OF
another. There are 60 members OF the
Legislature and 80 officers and attaches!
Was ever such tomfoolery enacted than
this biennial farce at Carson? Why, as
a matter of fact, these young men only
get in one another's way during a session
of the Legislature, and one-half of the
number are idlers and ~loungers in the
lobby during the greater part OF the time;
for wasting which they are paid fancy
salaries by the State. These attaches
are for the most part a lot OF political
barnacles. who attach themselves to each
party and turn up in whole droves at
every session.
The County Conventions of both par.
ties will fail to do their duty if they
neglect to pledge every candidate for a
legislative nomination to agree to the
proposition to cut down these reckless
expenditures. The people who fail to
secure men for delegates to County Con-
ventions who shall in their turn pledge
the candidates as aforesaid, ought to be
deprived Of the benefit of the Thirteenth
Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States, which prohibits i~nvolun-
tary servitude except as a punishment
for crime.
