STREET NAMES.

The Ereni,g Press urges the coun Gil to
take up the long-neglected matter of re-
naming and numbering the streets of the
city. and to substitute thorough and in
teIigible system for the present chaos. 1t
points out that:
At present there 10 no head nor tail to streets.
The names conferred and the numbering at
ten p'ed Is jumbled ~ and confusing mass of
ina. Irscies. There are at least one dozen
streets in different parts OF the city which b ar
the same name. One can fnd even ana odd
numbers side by side, and it is not infrequent
that where consecutive numbers are a,tem pied
there are skips of from one to five hundred.
This suggestion is very timely. A char ge
is badly needed, and the sooner it Is ac-
complished the better it will be. And
when the change is made care should be
taken to select names that mean some
thing. Only few of our streets have
names that are really significant. while
many OF them are not only meaningless
but monstrously absurd. The names oil
leading pioneers. Indian names of beauty
and significance, names suggestive of his
torical facts-these are the best sort of raw
material for s'reel desi nations

TRADER NEED NOT WORRY.

SEATTLE, Dec Q, 1890.
To THE EDITOR: Having read in THIS morn
ing's PosT-IYTELLIGENcER the list OF various
business and the amount OF especial tax' to
be levied on them as proposed by Alderman
Wilcox, would like to We my views of this
proposed tax through your paper, believing that
in so doing voice the sentiments OF at least
every man In the city who only has small
business TO support himself and family. As the
matter now stands all small traders at least have
all they can possibly do to meet their expenses
with such exorbitant rent Insurance lin many
cases 10 per cent J. and many other minor ex-
penses tast at the end OF the mo tn nearly ca
up all their profits. II this proposed tax be.
comes an ordinance twill surely work serious
hardship on many email traders aud In most
cases cause many of them to close their stores.
This tax would without doubt enefit the large
dealers, whose business is large enough rnat
they can afford 70 pay the tax, besides their
business Will increase their n.ighbor the
small dealer, will be Obliged 10 shut mp his shop
with his stock on his hands, probably owing the
Wholesaler. who will get his pay by taking what
il left OF Mr. Srnalideai er's stock at about Is
cents on the dollar. doo't know how the city
council look at this proposed ordinance, but
do know II 1t is psssed the sheriff will have his
hands full closing up small stores, and finally
our streets will look like q deserted California

COUNTY TAXES.

Among other changes made by the State
Legislature at its last session, in the laws
for the government of counties is one
which provides that county taxes become
delinquent on January list, instead of
March lat, as heretofore. There was con-
siderable opposition to the measure.
especially on the part of officials in coun-
ties where there were cities of such size
that the taxes were made payable at diff
ferent Offices. one for city and the other
for county taxes. IL was urged that
confusion would arise. and especially
in the case OF nonresident owners who
would assume that having paid county
taxes there was no further claim. As there

viduaiiy notified of their liability. il looked

OUR PEERLESS CLIMATE.

1t is only those who have access to great
number and wide range of newspapersfro
other states who can fully appreciate the
unparalleled climate with which this state
of Washington, and especially the Puget
Sound region is blessed. The Geographic
dispatches have given an mixing. but only
an mixing, of the seventies of the season
in other sections OF the country. From
East, West, North and South come tine
same stories. and Washington alone seems
TO have been exempt from the hardships OF
a rigorous winter.
In New York, a week ago, the thermome-
ter ranged as low as twelve degrees below
zero, most Inopportunely during the visit OF
diplomatic and naval guests from Brazil,
who were unprepared for such hyper
borean conditions and suffered seriously.
From the northern lakes TO the Ohio river,
and even to the south OF it. binding storms
of snow and sleet have swept over the
whole country. Even Florida has been
visited by biting frosts; along the railroads
of California the snowpIows have been
actively at work, and the central and
southern portions OF the state have been
deiuged by heavy storms.
In this region such stories seem fairly in
credible. Our occasional rains have been
soft, warm and springlike. The wearing of
overcoats or winter clothing has been more
q matter of form than OF necessity. On
but one or two mornings has there been
q show OF hoar-frost, and in such cases it
bore more the character OF a symptom and
reminder than of fact. Snow has been
relegated to the limbo of memories and
"reminiscences. The foliage of the trees
and shrub and the verdure of the fields
are as bright and fresh as in New Eng
land May or June. All descriptions of
flowers are blooming in our gardens as
abundantly. as brightly and more freshly
than in midsummer.
Judged by the testimony Of their own
journals it is perfectly safe to say that up
TO the present time there has been no equal
area within the boundaries of the United
States which would not suffer by COMPARE
son with Western Washington in respect to
climatic con editions. And according to the
testimony Of the oldest residents this has
been but sample season.
He is but a graceless curmudgeon who
fails to appreciate these blessings, and who
would exchange his lot on Puget Sound for
home in any other part OF the world.
Such an one would find fault with Par
adise.

THAT INDIANA RECORD.

Since Judge Calkins has no record in
Washington save as an office seeker. the
advocates of his candidacy are compelled
to resort to his record in Indiana; and they
are making the most OF it. One of his
organs quotes "a prominent Indianan" as
saying that Caikins is a man who grows"
with the public. and that his popularity in
his former home was universal. II this be
true, let US ask, hew is it that in the prime
of life Judge Calkins found it necessary to
migrate to another state2 Why was il
that this universally popular" gentleman
was overwhelmingly beaten when he ran
for governor of Indiana7 Why was it that
he was retired from congressP Why was
il that he found it necessary to change his
residence in Indiana from time to time to
suit the emergencies of political geog-
raphy2" Why is it that he is now in
bitter hostility to the controlling political
powers in Indisna7
The truth is that Judge Caikins had a
brief political career in Indiana in which
he made no special mark. and that in the
end he became thoroughly "run
down." He was beaten for governor and
found IL impossible TO get back into con-
gress and seeing all doors closed against
him, he came out to Washington hoping
here to find raw and gullible people upon
whom he might impose himself as great
man. At Tacoma he appears to have sue
ceeded but the impression does not seem
to have spread to other parts of the state.
There is prevailing idea in the state of
Washington at large that We can get along
without specially and newly imported
senatorial talent-that We can be better
represented at Washington City by one of
cur older citizens

the Chinese taken before those courts, he
says only about IL per cent. have been re-
