Ever since the publication OF Mr.. Full
tons telegram announcing definitely that
wheat. four and millstufFs were not in
eIuded In the concessions made by the
Northern Pacific In the interest OF Seattle.
DR.. T. r. Minor has been in Geographic
correspondence with Ar. Willard and Mr..
Cakes concerning the matter. He in-
formed them IN Main terms that the con-
SESSIONS gave small satisfaction here since
the essential thing was excepted--that
what our people wanted especially and
claimed - . right. was an equal rate on
wheat.
-Four days since DR.. Minor received
telegram from Mr.. Cakes saying that he
had directed that equal rates be made on
-four and milIstnfs and that equal rates
would be made on wheat when Seattle was
able 10 handle ii. To this DIR. Minor,
whose persistency has been equal to the
importance Of the subject. replied pretty
much - before, and late Friday night he
received the following dispatch in answer:
NEW YonE, Oct D. isss.
To Hon. r. r. kisor. Seattle. WasA when
your city srecss warehouse or elevator lstter pre-
fefrsdl with capacity Of fse hundred thouaand
bushels. ws win eauAlze wheat rates.
T. r. oAkxs
As matter OF fact, Seattle now has ware
house accommodation. adjacent to the rail-
road track, and available for grain storage.
for nearly double the amount named In the
Cakes dispatch. This Is evidently unknown
20 Mr.. oakes, who has not visited Seattle
since the erection OF the iron buildings on
the city front The facts will at once be
properly presented 10 him. and, since 1t
cannot be doubted that he is acting in
good faith. he must order equalization of
rates.
The pretext by which the Northern Pacific
has always attempted to Justify its dis
si'sstn"fcas sSafhss ot3hAe now no longer
exists. To all practical purposes the Puget
Sound Shore road between this city and
Stuck Junction Is now as much the prop
erty OF the Northern Pacific as any other
part of its line. II is owned by the same
men and managed by them for the same
rarpoSes-is in fact IS much their road
IS the road from Stuck Junction TO Ia
coma. And, further. there is no reason
able defence for a policy which dis
eliminates in the single item of
wheat while all other Iates are
equal. II the Northern Pacific can
haul naIllstans and merchandise 10
Seattle for the same rate as to Tacoma
there Is no reason, no Justice in iss refusal
10 haul wheat. Under this last tasiG the
local partlality is mere marked. and
therefore = more offensive and irritating
injustice than when all classes Of freigh,
were included In the discrimination. /. is
now evident, however. tina. the managers
IT the road sec the matter in its right Rgh.
and that il is intended 10 remove the las,
vessige Of discrimination.

The Handsoms CIub.

New York World: There is club Of
ladies In New York known a. the Hand
some Club. The club selected this name
because no lady is eligible TO membership
who is not handsome both In form and fea-
ture. IL might be supposed from these
statements that the object of the organiza-
ton Is the pursuit Of personal beauty, and
that the members, when they sign the con-
stituti0n, pledge themselves 10 exchange
any toilet secrets which may come 10 them
by right of Inheritance, OF be discovered by
reason OF unusual feminine penetration.
This, however, is about as far from the truth
as IL can wellbe. The club is branch of the
pareDt club located In Washington, owing
the same name, established for the purpose
OF collecting funds wherewith 10 educate
the southern negroes, and the representa-
tives Of the organization in this city say
that the efforts thus far put forth have
met with a good deal of success. What the
precise sympathy may be between the
handsome women OF the country and the
colored gentlemen on the other side Of Ma
son and Dix0n's line, who, according 10 re-
publican accounts, find SO much difficulty
In exercising their right of suffrage, is not
very clear. But whatever It is, the fact
may be interesting TO note that II was the
beautiful ladies who discovered IT, Miss
Clifford, who Is described as woman Of
remarkably attractive personal appear
ance, Is the president of the organization In
New York.

land. because Ii is so easy to write fustian
about lovely woman; 80 difficult. indeed,
TO do her justice without becoming silly.
A friend of mine, who lately saw her for
the first time, at q reception close to the
end of her reign In the white house, ex-
claimed: "She Is the most beautiful woman
| ever saw In my life;" and then, revising
his judgment, he added: perhaps that is
not precisely IL; but when she smiles 10
you, hers is the most TavishinRly lovely
face In the world" But her beauty Is
really the least OF her attractions. How
many women could be so charming occa-
si0nally as she Is all the time? Whether
the caller had mere grasp OF the hand
and a smile at a public reception, OF the
luxury Of half-h0ur's chat with her, no
one has ever met her without being fas-
cinated. She Is so vivacious and good
natured. she has such tact, such genius
for entertaining you, whether you are an
old friend or person she never saw
or heard OF before and never will see or
hear OF again; she has such fund Of sensi-
BILE and Interesting small-talk. she is so
unaffected, and so winning without making
an effort 10 be winning, that ones admira-
ton for her Is always growing. No one
ever nearu OF ntr doing an AWKWARD or
saying an ill-natured thing. She stepped
almost from a boarding school into the
most conspicuous and trying place q
woman can occupy In this country. |
think she must have been greatly surprised
and disappointed at the result OF the elec-
tion. But neither In her coming nor going
has she ever made a faAse step. She has
shown perfect self-possession without a
trace OF self-conscl0usness; perfect dignity
without trace OF coldness or restraint;
viyacity without friyollty. She has never
been more fascinating than during this,
her last, winter.
Besides an absolute genius for being
agreeable she has shown moral qualities
that are surprising In view Of her youth.
She has the rare gift Of doing right with
out seeming 10 be the apostle of reform.
She drinks no wine, but she has never
tried 10 turn the white house into q Good
Templar's lodge. She has by her own ex-
ample discouraged decollete costumes,
though she certainly must have infinitely
more excuse for low bodice than most
OF the ladies who have worn them at her
receptions, but, on the other hand, she has
never covered up her neck and ears In an
excess of prudery. She has always dressed
as became the first lady OF the land, both
In the quality and variety OF her robes,
and yet she has never been affected by the
silly idea that n dress must not be worn
twice. She has dared TO wear the same
costume more than twice, though few other
official ladies have shown equal courage.
