ais proclama
ant Great Rritain
-n-of-war into that sea
British sealers by force of
The question cannot be set
ed in that way.
What is needed at this time on the
part of the United States is to make
uYertures to Great Britain for diplo-
matte negotiations looking to a settle
ment of the questions in dispute, and
# the present administration shall
remain quiet until British naval
force shall haYe been sent into Behr-
ing sea, we say plainly that it will fail
IN its duty to the country and will have
heavy reckoning to settle with the
peeple. All the seals that ever We're
or will be taken in Rehring sea are
not worth the risk of serious rup-
ture to England; and yet if SO grave
q matter is committed to the care of
subordinates, who Can do nothing
but obey orders, We may find our
selves involved in actual war before
we know it.
Having declared our position, as
has been done by the proclamation,
the moment Great Britain or any
other nation dissents from it we
should prepare to have it decided,
not by the issue of cruel and bloody
war. but by negotiation and If neces-
sary. by arbitration. We should not
wait. either, until one or more British |
ships of war have been sent into |
Behring sea, for this is playing with
edged tools; but We should open ne
gotiations now, before there can be
any possibility of collision We
need not wait until revenue cutter
has been taken into Esquimault IN
der the guns of a British ironclad;
for il We do, war may then have be-
come inevitable. We should act
promptly, aud consent to allow the
proclamation TO remain dormant, If
necessary, until the issue has been
determined. War we do not want and |
must not have, and yet every step
now being taken leads rs exactly IN
the direction of war.

fc1l tsLdtS Or nOt-
Did you ever see n steamer hauled up
on the marine ways! The chap ON the
corner was down to our ways yesterday
afternoon, upon an invitation of Messers.
Starrett, Bcnedixen and Lake. the pro-
jectors OF such an enterprise in this city,
to watch the process of hauling up the
Evangel, and q more interesting sight
he never witnessed. A vessel is raised
by means of a carriage, which runs down
upon the ways at low water in proper
position to receive the vessel. At high
water the vessel is put on the carriage.
The carriage is pulled up by means oi
two three sheave blocks, one attached to
the carriage, and the other to the upper
end of the way. A steel wire rope is run
through these blocks, and around hori-
zontal drum at the head of the ways.
This drum is driven by gear-wheel and
| worm, which receives its motive power
| from the shop engine, by wire rope
gear connection. Much surprise is ex-
pressed at the smallness of the engine,
and it is hard to understand that it has
the power to pull large vessels from out
of the water. The engine is materially
assisted in the manner in which is ar
ranged the pulleys and other tackle, Sc
that the motive power of the engine is in
creased. The gentlemen composing the
firm who have established the marine
ways, are men thoroughly competent to
carry on the business. Mr.. Geo. Lake
is the manager, and is recognized as q
man of good business capacity. Mr..
Starrett is a practical machinist, and
was in the employ of the Deakin engine
works in San Francisco for four years.
Mr.. Bendixen is an experienced, compe-
tent draughtsInan, and served an ap-
premiership as machinist in his native
country, Norway, in the town of Frondh-
jem. He has been employed in some of
the most noted ship building institutions
of Europe and this country. This firm
is thoroughly enabled, by the ability of
the men, to satisfactorily do all work
which they undertake. The name of
this company is the Puget Sound En-
gineering Works. Institutions of this
kind should receive the encouragement
of our people, and we trust that the
firm will meet with the success that they
justly deserve.

Maori war

II seems hardly credible 10 rs who
believe everything TO be fair in Wal
that such half savsges as the Maoris
of New Zealand should observe cour-
tesies toward their enemies that puI
us to the blush. While they are al
war with the English they invari-
ably send Q notice when they are go
ing to make an attack, as il they were
coming on a friendly visit, aud de-
sired things to be ready for them,
They thought il very strange thai
the English did not give them
similar notice.
Sometimes two villages would get
mp Q war with each other, and after
fighting like tigers all day. they
would come out Of their little fort,
toward evening and talk over the
days sport in the most friendly way.
The next morning they would begin
again, to keep il mp during the day
time and meet in the evening as be-
fore in q sort of social reunion.
An old missionary tells how in one
of these little wars the occupants Of
a fort sent word to their assailanti
that they were short Of provisions.
and the attacking party Immediately
sent in g supply. One Sunday be
held divine service on o spot be-
tween hostile forts. and the warriors
from each fort came out TO attend.
and Monday morning they went 10
fighting as lively as ever.-Chicagc

The western Cowboy.

To be q successful cowboy one
must be skilled in four qualities.
He must be o good rider, have COM
pIets control of his lariat. Q good
knowledge Of the country, and be e
keen Judge OF cattle and brands.
Riding all sorts of horses. % be
does. soo gives him an intuitive
knowledge as to whether any par
ticuiar horse will give him trouble,
and when once on he has got to
stick for ell be knows how. His
rope comes in handy so times q day
either to catch o msddened COW or Q
runaway calf, to haul wood aud hun
dreds Of other uses. Without .
knowledge of the country he could
never pilot o branch OF cattle
to the main herd or could be
look up strays, and finally other cat
tlemen would palm of the most
miserable specimens upon him If be
could not tell good beef frou bad.
His readiness to distinguish and
knowledge Of the various marks
used to denote ownership is exceed
ingly important, especially in the
Spring, as disputes frequently arise.
All these qualities Q really good
cow-man excels 10, and when to
these is added cheerfulness, adapt
ability and good humor. it is bard to
find a more pleasant companion. The
life is hard. but the freedom and ex-
citement seem in most instances to
outweigh the hsrdships. - Phils-
