COAST DEFENSE.

A recent number Of the Boston
Traveller contains the following
The determination OF the British
Government to foitiiy the dominion
side OF Puget Sound. at the Western
terminus OF the Canadian Pacific
Railroad, while in full accord with
traditional British policy, has very
likely been FASTENED by certain
uneasiness on the part of the
people of the dominion at what
they ieel to be imperial neglect.
There is little danger of war betu cen
the United States and Great Britain,
but the fertilization OF the dominion
side OF Puget Sound will necessitAie
the fertilization of the America u
side; and this is matter which
ought net be delayed In fact, We
need 10 turn immediate attention
to Our entire Pacific Coast. La his
testimony before the Senate Com
mittee on Canadian Trade Relations
General Nelson A. Miles, now in
command OF the Department OF the
Pacific, urged the necessity of put
ting Puget Sound and San Fran
cisco in a state of resisting hostile
fleets and armies. The National
Board of Fortiica,ions has made an
estimate of what should be expend-
cd for both earth works and batter
les to render tnat port comparatively
safe in the event OF war between
the United States and foreign
power, and the amount is over
s27 900, 900. This may seem ex-
travagant to SONS persons, but tue
Board ranked San Francisco next
to New York city in point of i'm
portance iron the Standpoint oil
needed protection. General Miles
thinks S25 10000 would be suffi-
cient for the erection OF land defense
on the Pacific Coast. The Samoan
difficulty is illustrative of an in
creasing concern on The part Of
foreiga powers to extend and pro-
mote their respective interests on
the Pacific. and this increases tile
importance of adequate dcfenses OF
our Pacific Coast. The matter is
one which ought to engage the
early and favorable attention of
C,ngress.

MATTERS have assumed a new phase in
Utah. What has been asserted by all the
recanting Mormons and all the Gentle
writers on Mormonism for years, has at last
taken the form of evidence in the Courts.
1t has been established in the mouths of
several witnesses that in the rites Of the
Endowment House seditious oaths are adj
ministered-oathsth that under the penalty
of torture and death, bind the polygamous
Mormon to obey the church in defiance Of
the laws of the nation, and to obey the
priests as against the laws of the land
and to avenge the murder Of 10 Smith
by rebellion against the law. This fact Il
the most important development in the
Mormon question, of the decade. L
ought to work the acknowledgements

Utah and give the local government int
the hands of the ''Gentiles." The mora
effect of the disclosures will, however, hav'
the latter result in short time.

THE crisp correspondence between Sea-
ator Hampton and Mr.. Wanamaker, con-
corning the filling of the postmastership at
Columbia, proves anew that the first and
impetuous thought is not that upon which
men should act. 1t is quite clear that
had the Senator first privately inquired of
the Postmaster General concerning Gebbes'
removal, that the General would have
confessed that he had forgotten his prom
Use to the Senator, and the matter would
have been adjusted without the exhibit
ton of friction to which the public has
been treated. So, too, if the Postmaster
General had made memorandum of his
conversation with Senator Hampton, the
latter would not vhae had occasion to write
his caustic letter.

proper art museum shall be erected in
which they can be displayed.
English artists who have been decorated
with the Cross of the Legion of Honor are
Alma adema, Leighton, and Millais, who
are officers; Calderon, Firth, Gilbert, Carl

Mr.. Ball, visitor at the Oriental con-
gress in Christiana, Sweden, showed a
large globe of blue chalcedony from Baby

sceptre, on which is cut in fine cuneiform
characters: "To Nebo, the exalted lord,

The Art Guild, which was recently
formed in New York, works in some ways
as an insurance of paintings and sculptures
produced by the members. Agents of ex-

the guild for exhibits are referred

certain number of works, provided a
stated sum be deposited as a guarantee

IT Is to be hoped that the rumor is true
that the Government will abandon the
proposition to establish a navy yard on
Puget Sound, and instead will enlarge the
capacity of the Mare Island yard. This
is not a selfish judgment, for the material
addition to industry will not be of such
special local Importance as to prejudice
California against Puget Sound. But in
truth navy yard at the north now would
be untimely. The present Pacific coast
yard is admirably located and is well
adapted to enlargement of its capacity.
The Puget Sound region is not yet SO adj
yanced that its needs demand naval es-
adjustment, while the Mare Island yard
is SO admirably located, midway of the
coast that it is convenient for dispatch of
sbips to either the north or south divis-
ions of the Pacific. As matter of wise
economy, it is better to fully equip and

that the schemes of Boulanger no longer

SULLIVAN, the slogger, now appears

THE young man at Plymouth, Pa, who
has won young woman by fighting for
her according to the rules of the prize
ring, has not secured prize that makes
him an object of envy. The silly girl
could not make up her mind which of the
two men she preferred for husband, and
proposed that they fight it out as to whom
she should marry. The winner is certain
to regret his triumph. The woman is not
worth having who cannot decide that she
loves one man above all others on earth
and that she will marry no other. Chance,
or skill of the muscle has given the Penn
sylvania woman husband to whom she
will, in all probability, prove torment,
while to her he will become an object of
indifference, if not of hatred. She has
demonstrated how great fool woman
can be when she sets out in that direction.
