found sufficiently pure to readily fuse
them when thrown on hot Goals. Ozo-
kerite or natural mineral wax, rarity
elsewhere, is found here in large guam
titles. 1t is air, acid and water proof,
and can be used for imparting
these qualities To other substances.

1t could also be adopted as the base
for cheap vet desirable paving ma

posts TO prevent decay. A somewhat
similar discovery Is gilsonite, found. on
analysis, To contain about 50 per cent.
OF carbon and asphalt in pure form.

THE BoULANGER FRIGHT.
Confidence Voted in the Government
Restriction of Suffrage.

PARIS, Jan. 3l.-In the chamber to-
day Jouyencal interpeilated the gov
eminent regarding the measures it in
tended to take TO arrest the progress
OF Boulangism The government
ought to defend itself from the attacks
OF slanderers.
Premier Floquet, before replying,
asked leave to introduce bill re-estab-
fishing the scrufin ACKNOWLEDGEMENT sys-
tenn of elections.
Deputy D'0rnano, Bonapartist, ex-
claimed: The only possible issue is
dissolution of the chamberln
CaZZaux, member OF the right, asked
leave to speak on matter of urgency
The president decided that the house
must hear Floquet. Great confusion
ensued.
Floquet held that the establishment
OF the ScTRfin i'dTfcsaisSemeat sys-
tenn would in no way assail universal
suffrage. The government did not
think measures ought 10 be taken
against liberty OF the press, but were
bound to legislate against those seek
ing to overturn the republic. Existing
laws dealing with hostile combinations
were inadequate. The government
would propose fresh measures for the
repression of attempts against the
security OF the state Universal suf-
frage had become the tool of all sorts
of commercial combinations, through
syndicates operating through paid
bands OF agitators.
Cassagnac reproached Floguet with
attacking universal suffrage, and said
il was now the right upon whom fell
the duty of defending suffrage against
the government. Universal suf-
frage commands; il must be obeyed. y
Dissolution had practically been made
the test word. The situation for the
ministry could be summed up in the
phrase.
Hubbard demanded that the govern
ment proceed against Boulanger with
acts. not words.
Floquet replied that il was unneces-
sary TO form that idea--of dictator
ShlD.
After prolonged alsl animated de-
bate Montant presented motion that
the house. confident in the firmness of
the government. passes TO the order Of
the day The motion was accepted
by the government and adopteG-309
Ia 200.
Boulanger did not appear in the
chamber during the debate.

THE CODE COMMISSION.
The Attorney General Thinks II
should Continue Its Work.


should Continue Its Work.
In response 10 an inquiry made by
Territorial Auditor John Miller
Murphy, asking for information about
the duties of the code commission,
Attorney General j. b. Metcalfe has
prepared and forwarded his legal opin-
ion. The encouragement says the
code, according to section 3 of the act
creating the commission, should be
fully prepared i'll written or printed
form for submission TO the next iegis-
lature.
Ii the session of the legislature
should have been held on the second
Monday in January, 1889. the attor-
ney-general holds that it would I'M
doubtedly have been necessary for the
commission to have submitted as
much of its work as had then been fin-
ished to said legislative assembly on
the first day thereof.
In closing the attorney general says !:
Il therefore, am led to the conclusion
that the commission should continue
its work If unfinished. and that the
appropriation made for that purpose
is available for the payment of COM
pensation of the commissioners and
clerk, and such other expenses as are
mentioned in the act; provided, that
in no case the compensation to each
commissioner does not exceed x15eq:
the compensation to the clerk does not
exceed $1,000; and the expenses for
stationery, etc, does not exceed the
sum of $50

CHINESE NEW YEARS.
The Occasion Celebrated In Seattle
with Due Eclat.


Mayor Moran recently granted the
Chinese residents of this city the privi-
lege OF discharging fireworks within
the city limits. between the hours of 5
and o'clock on the last of tbs series
of DAYS known as New Years, which
was yesterday. Accordingly all of the
denizens of that portion of Seattle
known as Chinatown, the center OF
which is the corner OF South Third
and Washington streets, awaited them
selves OF the opportunity OF welcoming
the New Year in their own peculiar
style. After o'clock last evening there
burst forth a sound not unlike the rat
tie of musketry- Chinatown, as seen
by q PosT- fNTgLLIGEscER man, pre-
scented Il weird scene. The,
streets were lined with laugh
ing, bowling eelestials setting c.s
fire-craekers, whose explosion, with
loud report. accompanied by bright
flashes, scattered torn and tattered
paper prcfsseiy about, and soon the
streets looked like q stage after a
SNOW scene In some fashy melo-
drama, only the paper was not ex-
actly white. The buildings were deco
rated in Il fantastic manner with
lanterns. colored paper streamers,
and, in fact, every decorating device
known to the Chinese artisan. Dur
ing the two hours of violent ceiehra-
ton many Seattieitss visited the
scene of action and Witnessed the per-
Torrance with evident satisfaction.
The New Years celebration in this
city occupies but two days, while in
China it requires nearly II days To do
the occasion full justice The celebra-
ton this year was a trifle more elab-
crate than in former years, owing
possibly to the recent marriage OF
Quong Sue, the youthful emperor of
China

PORT TOWNSEND NEWS.
The lee Plant Arrives--Unien City,
on Hoods Canal.

PoRT TOWNSEND, Jan. 3f.-The much
talked OF ice plant arrived yesterday
upon the steam schooner Signal. 1t
was expected two weeks ago. The
pToprses0rs are new men from Wood
land, Cal. and have purchased this
new and complete plant for $24 900. 1t
has a capacity of 80 tons per day, and
viii thus be able to furnish all the ice
required by the fishing schooners that
make this city their headquarters.
Formerly they had TO go direct either
10 Tacoma or Seattle for immediate
shipment. and many times found that
there was no ice at either af these
places, thus making i q very unsafe
venture. Now they can have no more
fear upon that score. and accordingly
the whole fleet will again begin their
cruises after the speckled and luscious
halibut and cod.
Much excitement was caused here
yesterday by the rtumsr that the Port
Townse nd Southern railroad syndi-
cate had purchased the townsite and
some 1900 acres in and around Union
City, at the head of Hoods canal,
and many in town who own property
in that vicinity were very much
pleased, as it means an increase in
yaluesIin that location. Union City is
from its location very fine place for
a division station. az il is about 60
miles from this city, and, situated as
il is upon the water. has facilities for
shipping. also commanding location
for the establishing of several branch
roads, one east into kitsap county
and one west into Mason county. IL
Is undoubtedly the intention of the
railroad projectors TO make this one
of their principal stations along the
route, and they show considerable
confidence in the building of the road
by their continual purchases along the
line.
Rev. ID. T. Carnahan has returned
from an extensive trip through the
