DO MOST FOR SEATTLE


Indeed. the road which OF itself would
make a city at its Sound terminus-is
the Seattle, Lake Shore & Eastern rail-
way. This will be true ii the road
never crosses the limits of Washing
ton Territory; but no doubt it will Ill
timaiely cross the continent, or at
least have close transcontinental con-
nections. When these roads are thus
extended they viii bring vast quanti-
ties OF lumber, and OF mineral and ag-
ricuitural products. and carry in ex-
change foreign and domestic products
for the supply of the rural ana mining
population, to say nothing OF the great
Eastern trade.
Puget Sound must also become the
chief building center of the Cont
nent, and the possession by Seattle of
the great fresh-water lakes so close TO
the Sound, and the fact that here will
be the point where the Bessemer pig
iron and its products win reach tide
water. will give this point advantage
over all others on the Sound. Seattle
will build ships for England, New
England. South America. Asia and
the Islands OF the Ocean; and Just
here will first be seen the dawning of
the new day which will come to our
American merchant marine, OF late so
depressed. And the government itself
must sooner or later establish on Lake
Washington a navy yard where ships
can be built Of the best material at
minimum cost, and where her ships
out of commission can lie land locked.

ing effects OF ses-water, and can at
once get rid of their barnaeies.

ThnrmanI. Nominated.

For number of years past. say from 1876, the Republican orators and writers have been representing the Democrats at each of their recurring conventions with the fact that trey nominated Thurman for one of the national offices. Why do you pass by your greatest statesman, the noblest Roman of them all'p" "There is a man. they would say, "who is an ideal Democrat. an honest man. an able statesman, abnndantly qualified to i'll the highest station, and yet you pass him by. Why not give him a chancef" Not to Ie mentioned here are the reasons why Mir. Thurman has not been heretofore named for high office. Briefly 1t may be said that the great inquest of the party selected other gentlemen from time to time to bear the party standard, always with Mr. Thurman s approval and good will. If others were ruiied that the choice fell elsewhere, he was not. If the Re- publicsns complained neither he nor his supporters did.
 But revolving time brings in it's changes, and now his party has chosen MT. Thurman as one of the candidates, meanwhile listening for those dulte ct notes Of approval that long wished for good deed should inevitably bring
 Do we hear thems Are our Repub- lean brethren climbing over each other in their effort to reach Columbus with congratulations Not that we can be seen with the naked eye An other tune is now heard. Another note is struck. Our eagle has become a crow, our noble Roman common copperhead, Those whom it might be expected would be the lest pleased, fl om their former utterances, are now the worst disgruntled. Alas! it only adds one more proof to the old saying, that fl is impossible 10 please ones enemies.
 After all, as it was not to please the Republicans that Mir. Thurman was nominated, so neither their praise nor their blame can in the least affect him or his friends. He can very well afford to bear with the abuse of his adyer- saries until November, when he will be on hand to receive their congratula- lions

camp.igo Not~s.

Republican organs are trying to turn into liflicule the sentiment inspired by the red handana. Thurman uses snuff, says the Kansas City Journal. This is reprehensible habit, no longer fash. ionsble, and has an injurious effect upon the membranes of the nose. shall we have a Vice President who uses snuff and explodes it in red ban dana handkerchief.
 Such extracts as this, received by the Hartford Times from a Depew speech in 1872. do not help the Depew boom much now: Greeley beside Grant was giant beside a pigmy, and the question was Greeley and constitu- tional government, with honesty and purity, or Grant with absenteeism, dis honesty and party legislation, with land grabbers and stock spectators at the helm.
 The Wheeling Register quotes the following from speech of Allen G. Thurman, delivered about a year ago: Tt was said that if the lClevelandl should be elected President the country would be ruined. We'll, even my friend John Sherman agrees that the sun does rise yet, and that the rain does fall. and the corn does grow. and Johns fences are in a good condition as they ever were, notwithstanding Grover Cleveland is President of the nation. And, my friends, l say he is an honest, brave man. He is more than that, he Is a man of far more ability than people who don't know him may suppose"

THURSTON SELECTED.
The Nebraska Delegate Elected Temporary
 Chairman of ihe Convention.

The Nebraska Delegate Elected Temporary
 Chairman of the Convention.
 CHICAGO, Ill.,, June 1S.-To choose the man who would probably preside over the stormiest scene of the Rep ublican Convention, was the delicate and.mportant task before the Nation al Committee, when the members as sembled at noon, to select temporary chairman for the great assemblage of Tuesday. The call of States for the presentation of candidates for this position was at once begun. California almost at the head of the list, had the advantage of being the first to name it's favorite. M M Estee of Cali fornia was the gentleman urged by Mir. Davis of that State. MT. Estee was presented in strong speech as the candidate of the united Far West. He was put for word as ananti-monopo- ly man of the first water, and atten. tion was called to the quick action of the Democrats in choosing temporary chairman from the coast. John NJ Thurston of Nebraska was presented in brief, pointed speech by Church
 Howe of that State. Stress was laid on his ability as pal amentarian and u, on his brilliant speech seconding Gen. Logan in the National Conyef- tiom four years ago. Mir. Leland of Kansas vigorously seconded the nom- ination of Estee for his anti-monopoly record. Oregon also seconded him.
 The vote was then proceeded with, resulting in tie. Chairman B. F. Jones cast the deciding vote in favor of Thurston. The nomination was made unanimous on motion of Hamill of Colorado, who had acted with the Pacific Coast men.
 J. Hale Sypher, proxy from the Dis trict of Columbia, moved that in the contest from the Third Congressional District of Maryland both parties be excluded. Gary of Maryland amended byasking that both sides be admitted as contestants and the matter referred to the Committee on Credentials. Conger of Ohio moved to lay the whole subject on the table. Conger's idea was adopted, and the result will be to admit the regular delegates recom- mended by Gary, the member of the National Committee from that State. The Virginia contest, involving the seating of the sixteen Malone district delegates. was re-opened hy Blair of Virginia moving a reconsideration. Elkins and Lawson of New York joined in opposing strenuously and reconsid- eration whatever. Reconsideration was defeated twenty-six to eleven.
 After some desultory discussion re- garding few minor matters the Com mittee at l:20 P. m. adjourned.

Biften by q RatiIe.nake.

TUscoLA, ILL, June l4.-This morn- ing while Mable Fowler, of Villa Grove daughter of James Fowler, was making her way through field of oats she was bitten just above the ankle by a huge rattlesnake. The terror-stricken girl ran home as quickly as possible, but before antidotes could be administered her limb and body were swollen in a frigbtful manner and became spotted like the serpent that stung her. At last accounts she was still alive, though it is feared the bite will prove fatal.

Enrope,s Big Gums Nowhere.

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 16.-A change has occurred in the plans of the agents who bought out the fran chises of the Gatling Gun Co. They intend manufacturing the machine gun. both in Hartford and in England. The works at Hartford, therefore, will not be closed. The Calling company, which Dr. Gatling has organized at Richmond, Va, is for the manufacture of guns with tensile strength hitherto unknown. 1t is in the composition of the gun metal that the new company claims it's superiority, and if this metal is what Dr. Gatling claims for 1t, the Krupp guns and the Whitworth and Armstrong guns are worth no more than old iron.

Z" She's +" Sensation

There has been no production more
generally anticipated by the community
hcrethan the extraordinary one of Hag-
CARDS "She," which is to be presented for
the first time in Washington at the New
National Theatre this evening. Every
where-at the clubs, hotels Departments
and even at the White House-has 1t been
leading topic. Haggard's book itself is
so thoroughly familiar to all classes and,
strange to say, so sparsely illustrated, that
the desire is most intense to witness the
stage copy of il that will be introduced
on the New National stage tonight. All
previous attractions at that house seem
lost or forgotten in the haze of curiosity
that envelopes this absorbing one of the
"strange and glorious" "She." That the
production Is going to be undertaken
here with due dignity and liberality
should be evident from the fact that
nearly hundred people WILDE engaged
in the presentation before the footlights.
And that theatre-goers are keenly aware
of this, the unusually heavy advance sale
stands IN testimony. The New National
will be tllronged tonight.
