SEATTLE has behaved exceedingly
well; so have the people of the Pacific
coast. The recent fire in that city was
a very disastrous one, and would have
been SO regarded by much larger cities
taan Seattle. Since the fire very little
outside aid has been received, and that
mostly from the Pacific coast. Yet al
ready the city is being rebuilt, schools
have resumed, all the churches held
services last Sunday, and business is
rapidly %reviving. 1t is a good illustra-
ton of Western pluck and enterprise

man who shot and killed Francis Han
ford, a Chicago school teacher, in Au-

was indefensible. Sullivan was in

jury disagreeing on the first trial and

The statement that the Clay county
miners were able, under former wages,
to earn only S. a week, is utterly un-
true. If any miner earned as little as
that it was because he did not wish to
earn more. At IS cents a ton an average
miner can easily earn So a day. Some
Of them earn much more than this. The

danger already apparent. To be an
Irish-American is to be in the front rank
of American citizenship; but to be an
Irish assassin, or to be controlled po-
lftically OF socially by a m~alevolent,
murderous league, is to be a coward
and a party to the wrongs p~erpetrated.

THE Louisville Courier-Journal says
that on all issues except the tariff there
is absolute agreement in the Democrat
&c party. Will the CD. tell us what are
the other issues? But be they never so
many, does the CD. imagine that the
people can be drawn away from this one
American question, whose influence on
all other questions is SO overshadowingi
1t is too late now for the CD. to censure
Mr.. Cleveland for not adopting the c.
J.'s suggestion to make the tariff ques-
ton a paramount question in his very
first message, or to plead the baby act
and assert hat sit was not the tariffthat
beat the Democracy, any way" The
CD. is, however, not so far out of the
way when 1T suggests that the best hope
of the party as to a leader lies in the
possibility that "some mute inglOrious
Milton" some obscure Polk or Pierce,
may be in present obscurity awaiting
the call of the party. 1t says, "Our next
President may be hid somewhere in the

THE DAILY
AMERICAN COMMERCE IN THE

The Alta California, in an article
on the proposed subsidy to the China
steamers, between Vancouver and
Asia, by the British and Canadian
governments, says: "Our Chamber
of Commerce has crystallized the
issues that arise from this long-eyed
British policy, and they are to be
discussed by the coming conference,
which will be the most important
body that has ever met on this coast.
Let the issues be cleared of some
misconceptions that are caused by a
misuse of terms. We want weekly

haps also to Yokohama and Hong.
kong. Let us not talk about secur-
ing by subsidy. England does not
subsidize mile of ocean mail routes.
Let our Congress authorize the Post
master-General to ask bids for carry
ing a weekly mail to Australia, China
and Japan, just as bids are asked on
the land routes. We can probably
secure it as cheaply as England Sc
cures her mail transit via the Suez
Canal. The present situation is that
China, Japan, Australia and New
Zealand have weekly mail to Eng
land and only monthly mail to the
United States. If our shipping laws
are in the way, by requiring Ameri-
can bottoms to carry these mails, and
the building of American bottoms is
impeded by other laws, let them be
removed. With weekly mail facili
ties, a Pacific cable is the next step.
Everybody here seems to have for
gotten that after Senator Morgan of
Alabama visited this Coast in 1884
he introduced bill to secure Gov
eminent aid and patronage in laying
a cable from San Francisco to Ha
wall and Australia. It was favorably
reported by the Senate Committee
on Foreign Relations, we believe,
but, as the Pacific Coast showed but
little interest in it, it died on the
files"

as occur are confined to the surf
beaten western coast of North

Loved Her Hair.

A letter from Detroit says:-One
of the most remarkable divorce suits
has been begun here. Mrs. James
Phyling recently began action
against her husband, charging de-
sertion and praying for a decree,
with alimony. Phyling filed an
answer, in which he sets forth that
he fell in love with the woman who
is now his wife because of her lux
uriant hair, and frequently told her
so. After the marriage, which
occurred year ago, he found that
every reference to her hair caused
her to become angry, and he noticed
that she would never make her toilet
in his presence. This worried him,
and one day he climbed upon chair
looked over the transom of his wife's
boudoir, and discovered that her
ringlets were hanging on the back
of a chair. The woman herself was
bald as the palm of her hand. Ply
ling shrieked and his wife tainted.
When she recovered she explained
that she had lost her hair in fire,
but no explanation would satisfy
him, and he left his wife IN posses
sion of their home, taking up quar-
tiers himself in another part of the
city. He says he cannot live with
her.

MONEY IN SUGAR-BEETS.

ave have not decided as yet to
erect sugar-beet factory anywhere
in Berks county," said Claus A.
Spreckels, the son of the great sugar
king, yesterday. 81 merely took a
trip to Berks county to study the
geography of the place and take a
look at the land to see if it is suit
able for beet cultivation. In order
to determine whether sugar-beets
can be raised their proftably the soil
must be tested by raising a crop.
Then we would make an analysis to
determine the result. My father is
coming to the city in a few weeks,
and then we may probably decide to
SOW some beet seed in Berks county.
The best sugar-beet can be raised
only in sandy loan. Of course, they
will grow in almost any other kind
Of soil, but they will not contain the
saccharine matter from which good
sugar can be made.
If the Berks county soil is fit for
the production of good sugar beets
there will be money in the industry.
Wepay from 81 to SIS per ton for the
vegetable. The farmer can easily
raise it at cost of from ST to ST. so
a ton, leaving a margin of from So SO
to 81 a ton clear profit. On an aver
age a first class farmer can get thirty
tons Of beets from an acre of land, or
a profit of 500 an acre. But the
land that he uSeS in the cultivation
of sugar-beet in one year cannot be
safely depended upon to yield good
crop the succeeding year. The
ground can only be used successfully
every alternate year for the raising
of the sugar-beet. If we decide upon
erecting sugar-beet factory in Berks
county it will be a good one, and will
cost between 100000 and 100000.

OUR INTERESTS IN THE PACIFIC.

The full programme of the con
ference to which the San Francisco
Chamber of Commerce processes to
invite the Senators and Represen-
tatives and the commercial organiza-
tons of the Pacific States suggests
that the meeting is likely to have
some important and far-reaching in
fuences. The subjects Of the con-
ference are announced to be as fol-
lows:
Permanent establishment of ocean
mail steamship lines on Pacific Ocean
routes, the steamships to be avail
able for war and transport purposes,
and the lines to be literally compen
stated by the government for trans
portation of mails; the application
of the Interstate Commerce law to
TIE American carrying trade of the
Canadian Pacific Railroad; the abol-
ition of the bonding system Of rail-
way carriage through foreign terri
tory; the maritime defense of Pacific
Coast ports; the laying of cable to
Australia via the Pacific Islands; the
energetic construction of the Near
aqua Canal as a means of national
defense and commercial develop
ment, and the encouragement of
maritime commerce and increased
energy in the construction Of the
navy.
1t will be seen that the conference
touches almost the entire field of
American commercial and political
interests in the Pacific Ocean. That
the merchants of San Francisco
have resolved to take hold of these
matters in their enegetic manner
and press them upon Congress GER
tainly speaks we'll for their foresight
and patriotism. The Pacific, with
the archipelagoes which it contains
and continents which form its Dor
ders, is the worlds commercial bat
tle-ground. A large part of the vast
area is remote from the civilizing in
fuences which dominate the popu-
lations dwelling on the shores of the
Atlantic. Might makes right in
Pacific trade and Pacific politics in
a manner which we Americans OF
the eastern seaboard have only be-
gun to come to understand. Bos-

HAWAIIAN ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS.

There are few countries in the
world that are not subject to fogs,
and there are also few oceans or por-
tions of oceans where those thin
vapors do not occur.
The Hawaiian Islands and adioin-
ing ocean are happily free from
genuine fogs, and even mists are not
frequent. The chief cause of the
immunity of these islands from
aqueous vapors of this kind, is the
great depth of the surrounding
ocean, and to this cause may be
added the action of tropical heat in
dispensing such vapors as arise from
the land in the daytime.
AS health-resort, this freedom
from fogs is most important mat
ter, not only IN being free from these
vehicles of malaria, but in allowing
the suns rays to penetrate the at
mosphere unimpeded, and thus keep
the air pure and free from contami-
mating influences. In heavy, dense
and moisture-laden atmospheres the
germs of decay and disease float near
to the surface of the ground; but
under Hawaiian conditions these
causes of disease ascend to higher
strata and are then waited out to the
ocean where they are lost in the i'm
mensity of oceanic conditions.
The comparative newness and
porosity of Hawaiian soils also
greatly assist in preventing the as
cension of aqueous vapor, by allow
ing the rains to sink readily into the
soil. To this quality of Hawaiian
alluvium may be attributed the gen
eral absence of lakes, ponds, marshes
and boys, with all the unhealthy
conditions which arise from decayed
vegetation. and unhealthy exhala-
tons and malaria that are evolved
therefrom.
In no other tropical islands, of
similar extent, does the same free
dom from this class of diseases ex-
list; nor is the same, or even similar,
conditions found anywhere else with
in the tropics, excepting upon com
paratively small or uninhabited
whose absence of fresh water
may create similarly pure atmos
phere.
No similarity can be found on any
