What the Government organ Thinks,

OTTAWA, wA,Aug.2.-The Citizen, organ OF
the government here, which hitherto has
been silent on the Berhing sea question,
yesterday says In an editorial: 'If the
present government at Washington fails
to bring about serious complications
between the imperial government and the
United states, it will not be because no ef-
fort was put forth to produce so undesir-
able a result. The truth is that statesmen
of the calibre of Webster and Clay do not
now reach maturity in the southern por-
Ion of this continent

What the Salt Lake Tribune (Republican),
Says.
The Republicans of the far West have
three times made it impossible for John
Sherman to obtain q Presid ntal aomina-
tlon, and this has been because he was
one of the men who helped to work
through the law which demonetized sill
Yer, and which is costing the men who
toll quite $2O0,OO0,000 in this year of our
Lord, 1889. They will do the same for
Mr.. Harrison or for any other man who
holds to John Sherman's views.
The President, when this matter was
being debated ten years ago. expressed the
belief that If left to a vote of the people
there would not be a Congressional dis
trict in the union that the vote would not
he in favor of silver. II he has since
changed his mind it is misfortune so
serlous to this country that IT will cause
much sorrow and distress, and 1t will ip-
tensify the impression already gaining
ground in the West that there is not
Strength enough in the administration to
Determine to elevate the treasury der art
ment of the government from Its most
humilitating position as mere annex
to Wall street.

THE BAPTIsTs AT WORK,
A Good Beginning-Weekly Services to
be Held.

The newly organized Baptist church of
this city are pushing on with their work
vigorously, and evidently mean to make
their influence felt in the community.
The new church edifice which they in.
tend to erect, is to be the finest in the
city and quite an attractive ornament to
our town. 1t is to cost about $4,000 ex-
elusive Of the fittings and furniture with
in. Two thousand dollars are given by
the Baptist Home Mission Society; and
the other thousand IS to be raised by the
church itself. This amount is gradually
being raised by the soliciting committee,
who are moving among the members of
the church, and also calling upon citizens
generally who have the welfare and ad-
vancement Of our city at heart. Gener-
GUS and-noble responses have been made.
The committee consists of our we'll
known citizens, E. Bywater and VIM
Cockrill, who will be glad to receive CON
tributions or pledges from any adherents
of the cause;or others who desire to see
the prosperity of our town increased and
established. These contributions or
pledges should be made as promptly as
convenient, so that the work of build
ing may be commenced with as little de-
lay as possible. ...-
