So, after the fourth Of March Mr..
Cleveland will resume the practice
of law, in New York city. 1t is
said that this is preliminary step
to his being sent to the Senate as
successor. to Senator Evarts whose
term will expire in 1891. This is
very probable if the Democrats can
succeed in capturing the legislature
Of New York as they expect to do.
At any rate It is safe to say. that i

ence, pluck and back bone will Hot
be allowed 70 remain - private life.

The "small fry" of the Blaine
crowd in Washington received a
shock last week that set them to
running around with wild eyes and
blanched faces. The shock was
caused by a telegram from Indianap-
oils saying that Blaine had declined
to go into the cabinet. 1t was real
" amusing to see the CONSERVATION
for several hours in, the gang, but it
was not long before official news
from the head-center was passed
around among the faithful which
caused them to resume the we-own-
the-earth manner which they have
worn since it was known that Blaine
was to be Secretary of State. 80

BUSINESS MEN WHO SUCCEED.

The man who conducts his bust
ness on the theory that it doesn't
pay, and he can't afford to advertise,
sets up his Judgment in opposition
to that of all the best business men
in the world. With a few years ex-
perience in conducting small bust
ness on few THOUSAND dollars of
capital, he assumes to know more
than thousands of men whose hourly
transactions aggregate more than his
do in a year, and who have made
their millions by pursuing course
that he says doesn't pay. If adver-
Using doesn't pay, why is it that the
most successful merchants in every
town, large and small, are the heav-
lest advertisers? If advertising
doesn't pay, who does the most bust
ness? If it doesn't pay to advertise,
why do the heaviest business firms
in the world spend millions of dol
lars in that. way ? Is it because they
want to donate those millions of dol
lars to the newspaper and magazine
publishers, or because they don't
know as much about business as the
six-for-a-dollar 'storekeeper" in a
country town, who says moneysspenl
in advertising is thrown away, OF
donated to the man to whom it is
paid. Such talk is simply ridicu-
lous, and it requires more than the
average patience to discuss the prop
osition of whether advertising pays
or not with that kind of man. His
complacent self-conceit in assuming
that he knows more than the entire
business world is laughable, and re-
minds us of the man who proved
that the world doesn't revolve by
placing a pumpkin on stump and
watching it all night.

HIC JAcET, "AlAWATHA."

For pure, unadulterated asininity
commend us to the latest screed Of
"Hiawatha," published in last
weeks issue of the Union.
What the thing is driving at
surpasses the comprehension of all
intelligent people, although it lays
great stress on the allegation that it
has more sense than the combined
number of immigrants from Ould
Oireland.
At first blush we were tempted
to believe that the skewing machine
agent had transferred its nom de
plume to Screen, from Georgia, !"
the Disguised and disgusting scribe
who essays to write "communica-
tions"' to the Union from Raleigh,
but the thing keeps up its record
for lying so well that we are averse
to believing that even "Green" (sug-
gestive name, it is) can be SO accom-
plished in that respect.
One of the most glaring lies
which the automaton grinds out is
the assertion that "THE SENTINEL
owl" announces himself as an ''ac-
complished newspaper man and YER
satile writer kindly writ
ten Of him by others, and which
could never, by the widest stretch
of the imagination, be truthfully
applied to the thing which quotes
them.
1t attempts to explain the make
up Of the genus owl to the suffering
reader by calling that bird of wis
dom an "insect" (deceiving itself
with the belief that it and the owl
are of the same species) and slobbers
a whole column of Shiny verbosity
on the Un-ion's shirt bosom. Well
if the Un-ion and the Un-ion's
readers can stand it, we ought to be
able to struggle through it.
"Hiawatha" says it has $25 (prob-
ably sold ga brand-new seconds
hand" skewing machine) and that it
is desperate enough to make us bet
by putting up that amount against
what, we are left to conjecture.
Let "Hiawatha" come to us-or we
will go to it-and come to an un-
derstanding.
But, pshaw! It will never do it.
1t is too busy attempting to conceal
its identity to attempt anything of
this sort.
"Hiawatha" is pleased to note the
fact that Solomon said: CA fool is
known by the abundance of his
words" That is probably the rea-
son why 1T consumed column OF
the U,sion's shirt-front in which to
say nothing.
But there is a later definition OF
the word still extant: Old man
Noah Webster said a fool is cone
destitute of reason" So the readers
of The SENTINEL will doubtless
agree with us in saying that we have
already devoted enough Of our space
to the unreasonable thing called,
for short, 'Hiawatha."
So, ta-ta to the neutral nothing.
That it may sleep the sleep of the
unhonored and lnnsung is the ben
ediction of its Koko-koho.

A London cable despatch says
> Lest there should be any linger-
ing doubt about it, Lord Salisbury
has caused to be published anew, his
denial that Sir Julian Pauncefote or
anybody else has been appointed
British minister to Washington.
None will be sent, adds the semi
official and wholly, inspired scribes,
while Mr.. Cleveland remains Presi-
dent. Possibly this will open the
eyes of our belated Democratic
friends who have been SO much an
noyed by suggestions that Lord Sal
isbury's action or inaction was Ajaht
as an affront. Here it is not only
known, but admitted. It remains
probable that Sir Julian has been
selected and will proceed to Wash
'ington soon after Gen. Harrison 3
Inauguration. The HeralFs Lon
don edition says that Lord Sal
.5sbary will have nQ aiplosn u. 81 s.

RAYARD VS.. BLAINE.

Mr.. Blaine, acting on the sugges-
ton of his friends, that he is certain
to be Secretary of State when MIR.
Harrison is President, announces
that after March 4th we are to have
ga vigorous foreign policy" and all
the nations of the earth must be spry
or we will gobble them up before
they can say Jack Robinson.
All of which shows, as the Co,a'-
ter-JournaL says, that this is the
same old Blaine; the pinchbeek
statesman of the Garfield admins
tration, who was only prevented
from forcing an unjustifable war ON
some South American power by
Garield's assassination. In the Sen
ate, on the stump, or in the Depart
ment of State, James g. Blaine is
the same: clustering, pretentious,
snowy, shallow; with fatal facul-
ty of fascinating men of weak wills,
and an equally fatal faculty of ex-
posing his own insincerity and lack
of craftsmanship.
The Samoan difficulty is neither
as grave nor as simple as the leaders
of our lingo party imagine. 1t is
not so grave, for Notwithstanding
Bismarck's recent manifestations of
waning intellectual power, and the
further fact that James G. Blaine
will soon succeed Mr.. Bayard,T Ger
many and the United States are not
going to war about Samoa, and only
fools threaten it.
On the contrary, the matter is
not quite so simple as these men as
sert, for it has not yet reached a
point where we can say to Germany,
apologize or fight.
Secretary Bayard says that Ger
many has given this country no
casus belli, that our flag has not
been insulted or American property
destroyed, and that the whole ques~
ton is: Shall the country assert
the independence of Samoa by force
of arms, if need be, against German
aggression? As this involves the
question of peace or war, the deter
mination of which resides with Con-
gress, the whole subject has been re-
ferred to that body, the President
not feeling authorized to take fur
Their steps, which might precipitate
hostilities.
Certainly we are not going to war
to protect one party or the other in
Samoa. All that we shall do, all
that we are called on to do, is to
protect American property, Ameri-
can citizens and all the rights Sc
cured by treaty in Samoa or else
where. f84S5
Secretary Bayard has conducted
himself in this case, as in others,
with that firmness and that dignity
which are due to ourselves and to
others in all international difficulties.
During his administration we will
have neither bullying nor retreating.
All the rights of the nation and all
the rights of our citizens will be
maintained, not by instructions to
our naval officers calculated to bring
on a conflict, but by clear, logical
and concise statements from our De-
partment of State, which preclude
all argument and opposition even
from so obstinate and absolute a
ruler as Bismarck.

gs-
.ul Mr.. Russell B. Harrison, son of
the President-elect, needs a friendly
warning with regard to the use
of his tongue. The press thus far
has reported nothing particularly
noticeable in what he has said, but
it is pretty clear that he is free
talker, and "the gobbleums ull git
him eff he don't watch out" Gen
eral Grant suffered great deal from
the yolubility of his family.

It remained for our own dear
Reynolds to introduce the bill for
the removal of the political disabil-
tiles of the notorious w. w. Holden,
According to the eternal fitness Of
things, it will now be in order for
some member to introduce bill to
relieve Reynolds of his intellectual
disabilities. Both cases are equally
hopeless. 81

We do not intend to impose upon
the readers of THE SENTINEL by re-

General Assembly But we shall
watch the reports of the Raleigh pa

Representatives from the 5th Con-
gressional district and Piedmont
North Carolina, where this paper
most largely circulates. Of course;
when the introduction or passage OF
q bill which concerns or will interest
the people of all sections of the State
is made, space will be devoted to it.

Last Tuesday week In company with
Chas. ID. Montague, We left here foi
Portland, wherewcstayed until Thurs.
dny morning and took tho boat for
Astoria. y,4ile In Portland Charlie
made two chaseS Of real estate, one
q ten acre Fact and the other seven
lots. Wo lAft Portland at SIX O'Clock
A. III. md reached Astoria at hve +. M,
| giving us o daylight run down tho Co
2l1unbia, which was grand. The stcana-
'1 eT Wa oEe that stopped at all the doclg@
along the %a,vihd even at some places
where there were no docks. There
whs much fine scenery which we would
delight 10 describe, but space forbids
Among somewhere the water fumes
that were along the river, and then the
lumber and fishing business. The boat
stopped ct canliery ut Eureka, Wash
ingtol, and took OH one thousand cas-
cs of canned salmon. We were there
about an hour, during which time wo
were looking into tho canning busi-
ness.
We wo,Ad not forget some ofournew
acquaintances whom we met on the
boat. Going into the city OF Astoria ut
dark just as II twas being lighted up by
electric lights was nice, but we could
not see much. The next day was spent
In walking over the ty,climblng hills
and sliding down the other side Oh the
bosom Of our new pants, and taking
10 real estate agents, Astoria Is pleas
antly situated on the bank Of the Co
lumbia river. 1t has now about 6000
inhabitants, but property is higher
than II should be with three times that
many people there. At 8 o'clock that
evenin. we took the steam er for Port
land Nnd didn't know anything until
the next morning, when the porter
raped at our door and yelled, seven
o'clock. On inquiry we found we had
been In Portland over an hour. We
then strolled about the city until four
o'clock when we took the train for
