In Memoriam

ROBERT COUSINS - Died, No
vember 9th, 1888, in Port Townsend,
Robert Cousins, of Lopez Island,
Wash. Ty., in his 10th year.
Neither medical skill, healthful
climate, nor human affection could
continue the life of this good broth~
er, friend and neighbor, so dear to
his family and his many friends
When it became evident that his
days We're Numbered, his son and
daughter, John and Ella, left for
Port Townsend, with the object of
conveying then father to his home
and relations on Lopez Island, but
found that the most careful travelling
was too much for his weak and weary
body. Nor could his longing de
sire to see, once more, the faces of
those he loved lengthen for even a
few hours, his life.
His family have the sincere SYM
pathy of the whole community in
their great sorrow.
A large concourse of friends and
neighbors attended the funeral ser
vices, conducted at the Presbyter.
ian Church, and at the cemetery.
Three beautiful and very appropriate
hymns were lmpressively rendered
by Mr.. and Mrs q. NJ. johnson, Mrs
j. ]. DAVIS. Mrs. Thos. Graham, Jr..
and Mr.. Warren Davis. Requiescat

The long suspense is over. Herri-
sons majority is now SO clearly es-
tablished that tn ere is no longer the
slightest doubt. He gets New York,
Indiana and California-and is the
next President of the United States
This result was caused primarily
by democratic blunders and demo-
cratic quarrels. Undoubtedly the
Cleveland-Hill quarrel in New York
had wonderful effect upon the vote
in that state. But it was the Mills
bill that caused such tidal wave.

The Ballot.

Frank Campbell opened the polls
at the Adelphi corner this morning
with red ballot box, which was a
precursor of the result of the cleo
ton. The friends of both candi-
dates cast their votes for their men
and as much interest was taken in
the election as is shown il an Amer
lean city. At four o'clock tha polls
closed and the result was declared
by returning officer Frank Campbell

Prof. II. A. Ford, of Detroit, Mich.
was one OF the temperance workers
on this coast this fall. Since his re-
turn home he writes of delightful
memories of my Puget Sound visit,
on the whole the most pleasant and
inspiring of my entire 5000 mile
round; inspiring not only for the
physical grandeur of the mountains
and the Sound, but for the moral
grandeur of the devoted work noble
men and women are doing there"

The prevalent opinion is :snat the
republican party bis entered upon
another LONG lease of power. Among
the nGn partisan and all papers in

land made a good president, and
claims that ',he is still the ablest and
best candidate the Dem ocrats could
have for any future nomination"

Many of the Oldest settlers at
Spokane Falls could not bring them
selves to believe that their city would

east in the rapidly growing cities
come in and draw the biggest prizes.

A republican majority of n has

Chas. S. Voorhees, went down to-
ward political oblivion under a re,
buke that will probably last him for
some time. He entered the politics
of W Washington Territory under most
favorable auspices. Talented, edu-
Gated, the son of 8 distinguished U.
S. senator, he had everything in his
favor. Had he kept faith with the
people regarding bis promises on
the two great issues upon which he
was elected, he would have been a
power in Washins ston for manv
years. But two successful elections
made him arrogant, naughty md
reckless. Then he becS.n extreme
ly sarcastic ""..Ia abusive toward all
"p"s railed to agree with him. When
he attacked the newspaper fraternity
he aroused force that placed him
at a great disadvantage. Then, his
style of argument on the tariff ques-
ton was an insult to the intelligence
of the people. The platform on
which he ran was in opposition to
the material welfare of Washington
Territory, and its declarations on
statehood We're SO manifestly false
that they disgusted sensible people
everywhere. Seldom has a young
man started out in political life un-
der such promising surroundings or
with such splendid opportunities.
MIR Voorhees, was greatly assisted by
the fates in carving out his political
fortune. Seldom has any man of
equal intelligence made such an ir-
retrievable wreck of himself in So
short time Mr.. Voorhees, will now
have abundant time in which to la
ment his mistakes, and to reflect un-
on what he might have been if he
had been honest and faithful instead
of an unlelilble demagogue.
