THE INTER-OCEAN.

In 1885 The Inter Ocean enters upon the
fourteenth year of it's existence. Given
unusual confidence by the people in its
early days it has steadily grown in favor
until this day, when the publishers take
pride in the fact that the paper goes into
! more homes and has greater number OF
readers than any publication west of the
Alleghenies.
From the beginning The Inter Oceun
has stood firmly by the principles Of the
Republican party, and has, in season and
out of season, contended for protection
to American industry" 1t does not
agree with the idea that the mission of
the Republican party is finished; on the
contrary it believes that, purified by adj
versity, it will in the near future again
rise to the higher planes of thought and
action and be completely restored to the
confidence of the American people. The
most important agencies in accomplish
nails. If reliable, stanch Republican
newspaper was important when the Re-
publican party was in power, it is doubly
so now that the Democracy control the
National Government.
The Inter Ocean will in the future as in
the past be the medium through which
given to the people. 1t will voice the
convictions Of advanced Republicans
without being unfair even to Bourbon
Democrats. 1t will be aggressively Re-
publican without being bitterly partisan,
and will give as much attention to the
affairs OF Cleveland's administration as
1t would have given to the administration
of Mr.. Blaine had he been elected With
an Associated Press franchise, with
special wires reaching to New York and
Washington, with special correspondents
in all important points of the country,
The Inter Oc6un will use its facilities for
collecting news without fear or favor,
and so far as governmental affairs or
party movements are concerned will give
fuller record than any other paper.
All of the old departments will be con-
tinued. The scope of the WoMAN's KING
DOM will be widened so as to take in all
the industrial and reform movements in
which women are interested andengaged.
Our CURIOSITY SHOP, now standard,
will be given greater variety and interest.
In the FARM AND HOME and other de-
partments the widest possible range of
topics will be discussed.
Of original short stories md serials, the
very best by American and English
authors will be given during the year.
Arrangements have been made to publish
during the year short stories by BOYEsEN,
HOwELLs, LATHRoP, and others, and a
new serial by the author of ''Our Sum-
mer." and to publish all these in addition
to the serials by Miss BRADDoN and other
English authors.
In every department of news and litcra-
ture The Inter Ocean will make better
record than it ever has done

GRANT ROADS.

WASHINGTON, December 5.-In explanation OF
the rules recently issued by the department of the
interior. requiring land grant railroads to make
certain reports to the government Assistant Score
tary jerks to-day said to an Associated press re-
porter that their object, properly speaking is to
build UP their roads, in which certainly the gov
eminent is stakeholder to the extent of S1O0,000
CO., and as proprietor of the public lands of about
the same value held by thse roads, have the right
to have-even if the law didn't explicitly require
the roads to furnish just such information. The
rules require the roads to give ten days notice
of meeting of the directors, with the statement of
all business to be brought up, in order that the
government may have sufficient notice of what is
in contemplation, so that a representative OF the
government may be present, if deemed necessary
This rule does not prohibit the transaction of any
other business, but it is to be supposed that, If
meeting is called there is some object
in calling it. and the government won't to know be-
forehand if it is anything of great importance.
Then again. the rules require that the copy of the
minutes of the meeting shall be sent to the depart
ment and the purpose is to afford the government,
not the public knowledge of how its interests are
being subserved. For instance, when twas charged
Gas it has been) that some roads were selling public
lands for So per acre to one or two directors and
the latter Immediately turning around and selling
it for S15 acre. the department would be able by
turning to the minutes, to ascertain whether such
sale has been made.
At present the department has no knowledge
whatever of what the roads are doing, and have no
false.
at should be remembered said Mr. jerks,
shat the law of 1873 required the commissioner OF
railroads to pass regulations prescribing the char
acter of the report, but this law never has been
complied with until now

Members are discussing the proposition now
pending. to increase the annual membership dues
from 500 TO 500. There is a good deal Of opposi-
ton TO this increase. Mr.. Jueno Moeller, head of
the large banking house of j. Noel
Ter d Co., made statement
to his brother members that the depth of water on
the bar now two feet greater than in 1877. Mr.
Moeler did not know how the increase in depth was
brought about but it there, nevertheless.
This brought Brother Moody to his feet, who
briefly harangCed the Exchange, Major Mansfield
and the other port engineers lie declared they had
only obtained increased depth of three
inches, according to their re-

efforts He would give them the three inch credit
but beyond that he protested.
The tenor OF. brother Moody's effort, implied
that he attributed to Providence and but lit

that President Moody views touching the alleged

are not shared in by members of the exchange
