Policy of Lamar and Bayard.
Special to the Globe.


WASHINGTON, March 9.-As going to show
the policy of the new secretary of the interior,
it is reported by an evening newspaper that
Secretary Lamar contemplates no change in
the Office of assistant attorney general of the
department of the interior. This Office is
now filed, and has been for years
by j. X. McCammon of Pennsyl-
vania. He has been in affiliation
with the Cameron wing of the party in that
state. No one doubts his party zeal for he
does not disguise his adhesion to Republican
principles. The Office is worth S., 900 year
From some source it is said that Secretary
Bayard will retain all of the assistant secre-
taries of state, including the chief clerk, and
that the only appointment he viii make will
be to fill the first assistant secretary's place
made vacant By the resignation of John
Davis.

The Yakima Sui. Continued.

Suits have been brought against the North
ern Pacific Railroad company, in the name
Of Washington territory, for the purpose of
compelling the company to establish a rail-
way depot at the old town OF Yakima, on the
Cascade division. The railroad runs through
that city, but the company refuses to stop its
trains there or to build a depot or side
track. The company has located depot
and laid out town on q section of
railroad land four miles north Of Yakima,
which is the nearest station. The motion for
a writ of mandamus is accompanied by a
long affidavit showing that Yakima
is town OF 600 inhabitants,
the county seat of Yakima
county; that is the most convenient 'center
for the business of large region of country,
and the refusal of the railroad to furnish the
town depot will destroy property to the
value of nearly s1.000,O00. 1t is thought
that the Northern Pacific will fight the suit,
carrying 1t to the supreme court of the
United States. If pending the trial, tenn
porary order could be issued
com peIling trains to stop, the end sought for
would be achieved at once, but 1t is under
stood that the supreme court Of Washington
territory has settled this principle by decid-
ing that an injunction or restraining order
is dissolved by appeals. The suit is now
held over and will not come up for hearing
before three or four months, and Northern
Pacific officials think that it will never
amount to anything.

THE TAMARIND.

Having been assured by more than
than one "Oldest inhabitant" that it
would not pay to gather native
oranges and market them, we suppose
we need hardly venture to recommend
the using of tamarinds which are 60
ing to waste in crank profusion."
Nevertheless, it would pay to Guilt
vate the tamarind for its fruit as well
as for shade, as the following article
from the Chicago Grocer will show:
This tree and it's fruit were first known To
the horticulturists of Europe as of Asia tic
origin. It's use as cOndiRent cooling
laxative, was first known in India. It's
name is obtained from the Arabians who
designed it as similar to a dried date. The
tree has trunk and spreading branches, in
many respects like our apple trees, though
taller. The tamarind sometimes attains the
height of fifty feet. 1t is now cultivated for
its fruit, shade and beauty, in both the Ea st
and West Indies, and of course can be pro-
duced in good soil anywhere within the
tropics.
Every person, young and old, is usually
fond of the tamarind. 1t is valuable both
as an excellent condiment and as a cooling
and gentle laxative medicine.
Its fruit is leguminous, somewhat like the
American honey locust. It's pods are soft
within and spongy, like what some garden
ers call horse beans, the seed is hard, but
the inside of the pod is juicy, and very acid.
This pericarp is the most valuable part of
the tree. Those who procure from the
fruit its real essential qualities remove the
epicarp or outer shell, and then take the
pericarp and its tendrils and pack them by
layers in barrels, kegs or jars and cover
each course with sugar. The mass is then
pounded or pressed cOmpsctly and covered
with boiling syrup. Soon the acids and
sweets blend and form most delicious pre-
serve or jam, as every one testifes who has
eaten the conserve or drank water we'll
charged with the acid, pod or tendrils. The
drink is especially valuable to patients con
valescing from fevers or who need laxative
tonic.
Observers of East India habits and modes
of putting up the tamarind report that the
natives gather pods and tendrils and with
out removing the epicarp, force the mass
just as picked into any kind of vessel and
add about 10 per cent in weight in common
salt and and tread the mixture with their
bare feet until the salt and juices form an
acid pickle
The British pharmaeOpsis recommends
only the tamarind jam as prepared in the
manner first named. which is usually the
| practice in the West Indies.
! The tamarinds find a good market and 6
ready sale not only in most cities in the
United States and Europe, but in all the
chief centers of commerce in Asia and
| Africa.

ABOUT BANKS AND BANKING.


The establishment of the Bank of
Savings and Deposits, by Claus
Spreckels & Co., was the beginning
OF q new era in the commercial and
Industrial life of this community.
The ADVERTISER noted this fact and
congratulated the country at large
upon the occurrence. The announce
ment was varIously received. In
business circles there was feeling of
intense satisfaction and relief. At
lastethere was opposition in banking
as in trade, and bank accommOda-
ton would thenceforward be accorded
on sound business principles, and not
be regulated according to personal
likes and dislikes, or by the all-per-
vading spirit of avarice which is GER
tain TO actuate any institution exer-
eising exclusive banking privileges.
The business classes of Honolulu had
suffered grievously from these causes
in past years, and they welcomed the
now assured deliverance from the in
tolerable despotism of a moneyed
autecracy.
And the planters and producers
welcomed the establishment of the
new bank for precisely similar rea-
sons: while the thrifty working
classes saw an opportunity for the

manifest a spirit of dangerous and
perverse activity, it is not easy to see
what else would. Colonel Spreckels
has an uncomfortable impulse to
make improvements, and he does not
hesitate to demolish the picturesque
ruins Of ancient Hawaii to make
room for modern buildings. To be
sure, he employs skilled labor and
spends money; what is that, however,
compared with the memory Of the
sleepy past and the certainty of q poi
diet for the people. The "Spreckels
monopoly must be crushed.
