THE OPERATION.

The only operation possible was that Of
opening the skull and drawing of the pus.
The operation Is extremely delicate on ac-
count of the great danger from hemor.
rhage. Dr. Sands was selected 10 per
form 1t, and he left the house at once To
make his preparations. The time for
performing the operation was set for 4S0
o'clock Before that time an Oaken
operating table, from the College of Ply
siciaHs and Surgeons, was brought TO the
house and carried up 10 Senator COnk-
ling's room. Then Il great pile Of
blankets. linen and towels, and mat
lress were taken up stairs. and little be-
fore 4.30 O'Clock Drs Sands and Deladeld
arrived with three student assistants from
the College Of Physicians and Surgeons.
Dr. Sands turned Senator COnklings
head over upon its right side, and cut a
lateral incision In the scalp two inches he
hind the left ear. The incisOn was about
three inches long The scalp parted and
the student attendants dried the slight
hemorrhage that there was, and stood
ready with their appliances to stay "a
possible hemorrhage of the lateral sinus.
There was, however, no call for their
services In this regard.
THE OPERATION SUCCESSFUL.
The skull lay exposed. Deity and

of the temporal bone-the scale Ike plate

Minister West understood that when he
wrote to his Pomona correspondent:

You are probably aware that any political
party which openly fsvored the mother country
at the pTesens moment would lose popularity,
and thst the parry i'll power is fully aware of
this fact
The Mills bill is not pure and simple
free trade bill, because it retains features
inimical to that theory. But it is SO
framed as to make free trade inevitable,
and free trade with the United States is
what England wants As the London Tines
I.nt it some years ago, the Golden Club
cannot rest until America is subdued !"
that is, brought into line with the free
trade policy.
What Republicans contend for is not
that England shall be harmed by the
United States; not that assault upon her
shall be encouraged; not that ill-will
toward her shall be cultivated but that
resistance must be made to any scheme,
doctrine or attempted legislation that pro-
poses to benefit England at the expense Of
the labor industries and social conditions
of the United States What England
wants is customers for her surplus pro-
ducts; without them she must decline as
state. She needs to maintain her position
as ruler over provinces and dominions
and states, from Canada to India, and Aus
tralia to Ireland but she cannot do this,
or keep up her monarchical system, unless
the wheels of her industries revolve her
spindles hum, and her ill-paid workers are
kept at labor.

WHY He HEsITATED.

The whole country was astonished at
Mr.. Secretary Bayard's inability to see i'm
propriety and ofiense, breach Of duty and
official obligation in Minister Vests inter-
ference in American politics. 1t will be
remember that Bayard, when interviewed,
thought Vests action only little indis-
erection. He had to change his views.
But let us see what reason there was for
Mr.. Bayard's humiliatiug subservency to
the British Minister.
West got Mr.. Bayard and Mr.. Cleve-
land to agree to extension of the fisheries
treaty articles originally. But when it
suited England's purpose, the same gentle
man induced reversal Of the Government
policy, and despite Congressional action
the negotiations of 4 new treaty was made
apparently necessary. 1t is claimed
that Mr.. Cleveland was trapped into
that position nevertheless his message
on the fisheries question was simply re-
Election Of the wishes Of the British Minis
ter. Inc new treaty was negotiated pre-
cisely as Lord Sackville wished it. So too,
relative to the Canadian matter, West in
fuenced the Administration 1t is not sur
prising, therefore that, grown incautious
by his successes, he should have written
the Pomona letter, and it is still less sur
prising that Mr.. Bayard, in view of all the
facts, declined, until the last moment, to re-
sent Lord Saekvilie's pertinent and indie
observation-disclosures in the campaign. On his
part, West was solicitious that an Admins
tration should continue which he found SO
plastic in his hands, aud that was playing
and $50 directly into the hands Of
English manufacturing interests.

sHEBLEY HATCHERY
This hatchery was established in Nav,
1888. During that year there were hatched
and distributed over 95 900 trout. The
output for 1887 was 2000,00 During this
year, up TO the present time, $4,000 In
addition to this front hatchery, Captain
Todman, with the authority of the Com
mission, established one at Lake Bigler.
and Matched aud released over 800. 900 dur
ing the year 1887. The Commission this
year rented the hatchery, and up 10 the
present time have Matched and are distrib-
uung over 1000 trout. The Commission
contemplated the building of trout
hatchery at DonneT lake, but owing to the
complications in which we found oursel yes
were compelled to forego this intention.
we believe that hatchery should be con-
structed at that place, and go recommend.
STATE SALMON HATCHERY.
In March, 1885, the Legislature passed
bill, authorizing the Board of Fish Com
misSloners to erect and maintain a State
Salmon Hatchery, and appropriated there
for the sum of $4,000. The site was Sc
lected and the hatchery erected during the
term of Office OF or predecessors. The
great expectations INDUCED in by the pre-
vious Commission bave not been realized
An experience Of two years has convinced
US hat the selection was an unfortunate
cne. During 1887 but 100000 salmon were
Matched. During the previous years, as |
have been informed, a less number were
hatched.
The location on Hat Creek is too high up
10 The river, and the salmon do not reach
| there until October, after the spawning sea-
son is over. Moreover, the climate is too
severe. ana the cost of maintain
ing the hatchery during the win
| ter season too heavy. The distance
OF the hatchery from railroad COM
muuication-eighty miles-is smother sub
stantial objection to the site. We have
abandoned its use and removed all portable
apparatus to Sissohs, where a temporary
| hatchery has been established at cost Of
81 800.
The United States Fish Commission will
| furnish us all the eggs that we can handle.
| This will enable us TO hatch and release
| about 100000 salmon during the present
wear
