ARRIVAL IN PORT.

The Waialeale was first sighted
yesterday morning off Barber's
Point, and Lucas whistle blew
six times. The Interisland wharf was
crowded with spectators. His Excellency
Mr.. Gibson, President OF the Board of
Health and Hon. F. II. Hayselden, Sec
rotary of the Board of Health, were pres
ent to receive the steamer. The relief
party on landing was cordially well
coined home, and a thrill of joy ran
through the crowd on learning that the
Captain and his crew were safe. The
three dogs found on the island were
brought by the Waialeale, two being fox
terriers, the othera retriever The birds
captured all died on the passage. Mr..
Strong made quite number OF interest
ing sketches of the island and the wreck.

The Hawaiian flag was then hoisted
and saluted with three hearty cheers, and
we go to dinner. This being disposed of,
the boat is sent back to the ship to bring
off the lumber for the house, and we pro-
coed to plant the palm trees and explore
the island.
The island is of coral formation, run
ming N n. E. by S. S. w, situated in the
S. f. corner of the lagoon which is
almost surrounded by large reef. On
the north of the island is a smaller reef
within the larger one, and scattered
about are small reals and projecting
rocks over which the water is in places
scarcely Is inches. These are shown by
the dark appearance of the water over
them in marked contrast to the rest,
which appears light green and is beauti-
fully clear. The U. s. S. Saginaw was
wrecked on the northeast portion of the
big reef. In the lagoon, to the west of
the island, are three sand banks. The
island is about three miles in length and
hall a mile at the broadcast part, the
center portion being covered by some
green bushes, about three feet in height.
The greatest elevation is not more than
80 feet At the southern end the island
tapers off into narrow sand spit. We
first explored the southern end, where
we shot several varieties of sea birds and
also some plover. Turning round the
bend of the coast, we go along the east
ern shore Here we find the trunk OF
tree, I5 inches in diameter, about 4 feet
in height, and with roots growing deep
into the ground. This had once grown
on the island, and had probably been cut
down by the crew of the Saginaw. We
completed the circuit of the island to-
wards dark and returned to the tent ana
had tea. The boat once more returned
to the shore, this time bringing the lum-
Der and materials for the house. The
carpenters at once set to work and dur
ing the night the framework OF the house
is completed. The rest of us retire early
to rest, being tired out with the days
work. The Captain had visited the

The Cause of Hard Times.

Carroll D. Wright, chief of the national
bureau of Labor, attempts to give some of
the causes for the present depression in bus
mess. Among the reasons given is the fall
ing off of railroad construction from 11,516
miles in 1882 to 5.0C0 in 1885: the subsequent
shrinkage in railroad operations; the number
falling from $780, 440 in 1882 to 336, ,361 in 1885;
the very low price Of the wheat crop in 1885.
These are among the most prominent and
plausible reasons given in detail, and may
have had much to do in bringing about the
depression; but he comes nearer the mark in
his general conclusions, which are as follows:
"Other causes contribute to the depression
that has overtaken us. We expanded too fast
and too far during the booming years that
followed the resumption of specia payments.
We builded too many railroads and too many
factories. We pushed credit and enterprise
to, if not beyond the safety line. And the
reaction came. The reaction was Inevitable,
and the stoppage in railroad construction
the loss in immigration, and the failure IN

sN" Albert b. Parsons, the Chicago An
archist for whom the detectives are securing
the country, has checkered career. cor
respondent states that prior to and for several
years after the late civil war he resided at
Waco, Texas. He is the brother of Gen.
William Parsons, who rose to the rank of
brieadier general in the confederate army,
and who is now living in New York. AT the
close of the war Parsons, who had served in
the confederate army, returned to Waco and
Joined the Republican party. During the
era of reconstruction he became one of the
local leaders in that party and notorious
and dangerous agitator among the negroes,
whom he always excited with his incendiary
harrangues It was at that period that he
formed a laison with bright mulatto wo-
man named Lucy Gathings, who now figures
in the dispatches from Chicago as his wife.
Lucy's husband, Oliver Gathings, is now liv-
ing in Waco, where he was deserted by her to
become Parsons mistress. Parsons left

party was swept from power in Texas, and
went to Chicago. He carried Lucy with him.

~ A pirate is never SO we'll satisfied as
when he is in possession. If he can only sue
ceed in getting possession of some other per-
sons property without getting badly hurt or
killed, his goal is reached. 1t makes no diff
ference how he gets possession. The great
object is to get it.
Just so it is with the Republican party in
the Senate. They have possession and that
is all they wanted. How they got there is a
matter of no consequence to them.
But it is a matter of consequence to the
honest people of the State who revere their
Constitution and respect law. Editorial
writing will not drive out the pirates now,
but we propose to let the people understand
the facts as we go along, and the people will
act when the time comes unless the pirates
now in possession make step further and
deprive the people of the right of voting

.B The New York Times, Republican,
speaking upon Ohio matters on Thursday last
says:
SIT is universally admitted that the twenty
Democratic members Of the Ohio Senate who
ran away played the part of fools, but it is by
no means certain that the Republican minor
ity who remained at Columbus have acted
the part of wise men. 1t can not be success
fully contended that the resolution of the
Republican minority on May Sth, seating the
contesting delegation from Hamilton County,
was legal 1t appears to have been adopted
and carried into effect in violation of the
Constitution of the State and the rules of the
Senate and it is held to be of binding force
and efficacy only because the Republican
Senators have carefully excluded from the
journal all evidence of the irregularity of
their action. The Courts, it is held, will ac-
cept the evidence of the journal as final and
complete, making no inquiry as to whether
it is a full and truthful record of the Senate's
transactions. According to the p-ecedents
this may be held good in law, but it is detest-
ably bad in morals and dangerous to the
community affected by it. On sober refec-
ton, the Republicans of Ohio may conclude
that their Senators have done ihe party a
good deal of harm in the passage of the reap
po1tionment bill. The Ohio Republican Con-
gressmen at Washington are decidedly OF
that opinion. But as the bill will cause them
some personal inconvenience and anxiety by
abolishing districts in which they felt secure
of reelection their views will have little
weight. The reapportionment, however, is
an undeniable gerrymander, and the Demo-
Gratis will be likely to make some capital out
of its evident injustice 1t is their present
intention, moreover, to put up Congressional
candidates this fall in the old districts In
which they would be unopposed and then to
appeal to the Courts to declare the Reappor-
tionment act unconstitutional on the ground
that the Senate was without legal quorum
at the time of its passage. Should their plan
succeed, and the Cou~tsg give it sanction, Ohio
would seat a full Democratic delegation in
the Fiftieth Congress. The pc esslbiilty Of
such terrible retribution has occurred to
the mind of Senator Sherman, who opposed
the Reapportionment bill, and in letter tc
Senator Conrad raised the point that should
the choice of President be thrown into thu
House in 1888, it would be extremely dis
agreeable to have the vote of Republican
Ohio cast by a solidly Democratic delegation
BIT the Republicans at Columbus were deaf
to all entreaties and arguments and appeals
They did their work rather blindly and greed
lily, and in the true pertisan fashion. The,
will have no just cause of complaint if it
fruits shall not be to their liking"

w- Who for Congress in this district, to
down Bill Hill. or any other man, is now the
question. We have number of available
men, for instance: Hon. Asher Cook, of
Wood County; 1. N. Alexander and II. G.
Glenn, of Van Vert; Col: J.; H: Brigham a. ,
G. L. Allen of Fulton; @. A. Bowersox and
G. s. Bentley, Williams. Wauseon Tribune.
This is Democratic District and any good
Democrat can carry it against any candidate
the Republicans may trot out. Governor
Hoadly carried the District by 949, and the
party is stronger to day than twas then,
through the revolutionary proceedings of
the Republican members of the Legislature.
But the Democrats may elect in the old
districts. In which event, should the next
House be Democratic, Ohio would have
twenty -one Democratic members of Congress
instead of six, which the revolutionists have
given us! Your own medicine will be bitter
to take, wont it, Mr. Tribune?

A Compliment to Northwestern Ohio
Judges.

A Compliment to Northwestern Ohio
Judges.
Last week Judges Moore, Beer and Haynes
were holding Circuit Court at Warren, Trum-
bull county, Ohio, having exchanged places
with the Judges of that district at their re-
quest, from the fact that some questions
were to be passed upon growing out of the
trial and conviction of Lewis Webster, for
murder, and it was desired to go outside Of
the Reserve for Judges to determine the
questions. The Western Rese,ve Democrat,
after referring to the matter at length, pays
the following compliment to our judges:
"a more able court than that which is now
sitting on the case of Lewis Webster would
be difficult to find, each and every one of
whom have creditably acquitted themselves
in the legal arena, and Lewis Webster and
the people may congratulate themselves that
there is now Court to pass upon this case
that for breadth of learning and depth of
wisdom would be hard to surpass. It is not
generally known among the people as to
what the duties and powers of this Court are.
It is very generally but enormously thought
this Court is passing upon the guilt or inno-
cence of the defendant. When, in fact, they
are reviewing the case upon the record made
in the trial below, an6 fro \ that they are to
say whether OF not the Common Pleas Court
erred in the trial of the case, and whether the
verdict is warranted by the evidence. If they
find that the Court below did err to the pre-
judice of the defendant, or that the verdict is
contrary to the law and evidence in
the case, then twill be remanded
back to the Common Pleas Court for
{r;o Int fbou chnnId find
that there was no error in the trial below, and
that the defendant was not preiudiced in
any way at the trial below, the verdict will be
sustained. In either case the defeated party
may appeal to the Supreme Court, whose ver-
dict will be final.

While the election returns of last year show
that the Democrats carried eight of The twen-
ty-one districts, the Republicans think they
can only carry four, or five at most. The Re-
publican majorities in these districts in 1881
made even more favorable showing for the
Republicans than do the majorities in 1885 in
the same districts. If the Democrats should
conclude to run candidates in the districts
constructed under the gerrymander, it is
quite possible that they will knock ont six or
seven Republicans who are cock-sure of an
election.
Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1886-05-27

rw- Democrats should not be hasty in de-
Gliding whether to ignore the recent Republi-
can gerrymander and run candidates in the
old districts. Thorough consultation should
be had and all the points brought forward
and argued. The Supreme Court may be re-
lied upon to decide according to their par
tisan inclinations, and all the acts of the re-
cent rump Legislature will be sustained.
Therefor Democrats will have to depend up
ON Democratic House to do hem justice,
should it be decided to sustain candidates in
the old districts. This being the case, it is
right and proper that the Congressional
Committee advise upon the matter. and their
council will be of material aid in assisting
the Democracy of Ohio in determining what
course to persue,
