the irresistible conclusion is
that Mr. Garner poeketed all

Port Discovery.

The mill these days is disposing OF
logs at a great rate, turning out prob
ably 100000 to 10000 feet of lumber
per day. Fer a single mill it has a
very unusual capacity, without a
superior on the Sound. To the sys-
tenn of management, and the ayera e
intelligent character Of the working
force, may be attributed the superior
results at Port Discovery employer
and employed seem to take the at
titude Of common interest, result
ing in corresponding goodwill and
contentment. There are companies
that cannot seem to learn that there
is anything in this policy. They
like the crack OF the slave whip-Hke
to break down the personality OF their
men. Propose to give the mighty
dollar for so much work and call ii
even. Take the stand that employer
and employed have no further rela-
tions of Interdependeuce. SuperiuI
tendent /. z. Smith returns this

Moore who spent the summer in
California, in the company's interest,

Mr.. Peter Mutty, lessee Of the Port
Discovery hotel, returns from an
eastern tour with a cultured and
charming bride, most welcome ac-
QUESTION to the social llife of this
thriving place. The marriage took
place at the home of the bride, Farm
ington, Maine The brides maiden
name was Lena V. Philbrick. A
large gathering of the numerous
friends of bride and groom were
present, and many elegant gifts be-
slowed; among them was a complete
set of solid silver having an estimated
value of some $400-a present from
the brides parents.
Port Discovery, like other places,
felt the late south-easter. It bore
along cn the heaky swells logs and
general debris, breaking out some
supports and letting down a portion
of the sidewalk between the mill and
the mems quarters, which, however,
will be repaired without difficulty

Among possible candidates for the
presidency Gen. Sheridan is often
Damed. He was in Boston some
days ago, and, as our dispatches
stated, there were many cheers for
him as ''Our next president"
Mr.. Blaine's letter by no means
disposes of his candidacy. There is
nothing in it that would prevent the
convention. if it were to meet to-day,
from nominating him or to prevent
him from accepting the nomination.
Mr.. Blaine has simply chosen an ad
roit way to deliver hopeful mes
sage to the party and to put himself
in u strong and dignifed position.
The letter in no sense changes the
situation.
Democratic members of the house
and senate committees on territories
have agreed to report the bill for ad-
mission to statehood of Dakota en-
tire, New Mexico, Montana and
Washington. It is the expectations
of these members that the bill can be
passed by both houses during the
present session. They urge that re-
publicans are not opposed to the
measure on political grounds, as Da-
kota will come in as a republican
state to offset the democracy of New
Mexico, while in Montana and Wash
ington the other party has the de-
cided advantage.
Alabama is fast changing to pro-
lection state. The Birmingham A &c
says there viii be built, tiiis year, IN
Alabama, twenty new iron furnaces,
with an average output of 1000 tons
a day, or 100000 tous per annum.
This output, with that of the exist
ing furnaces, will run the output of
1888 up to about 100000 tons, and
it is hoped by the Alabamians that
III this year their state will contest
with Ohio the honor of being the
second iron>producing state in the
Uniod, the iron output in Ohio, last
year, having been 975,539 tons.
Thus, in 1889, the iron product of
Alabama, estimated at fully $4,000,
600, will be one of the most valuable
products of the state, ranking above
the corn crop, about Sl0,000,000, and
below the cotton crop, about SIS, goo,
