GENERAL JOHN Nj. PALMER, being
invited by the Atlanta Journal to talk
politics in an interview for Southern
consumption, wrote in polite letter
of declination, dated from Springfield,
Mays 8: SAT the time of our CONVEX
sation on this subject, impressed some
what by the fact that had then re-
ceived some $500 letters and tele-
grams referring to and congratulating
me upon my then recent election, l.,
like many others, as 1 now think,
overrated the Importance of my out
givings, so that now I am inclined to
the belief that, as the novelty of the
thing has worn off, the public will feel
very little interest in what [ think or
may say. This consideration, togeth-
er with the fact that / am neither a
king nor king MAKER nor candi-
date for the Presidency or the Vice
Presidency makes me feel that form
al political dissertation from me
would be very much like an imperti-
nence. Speech is silver but silence is
golden, and though favor the liber-
al coinage of the white metal / have
for the present, at least, prefer
ence for the yellow. ,"

IT would be nice compliment to
the last legislature if E. St. Julien
Cox should bring suit against the
state for the recovery of $4,000 for
back salary as Judge of the District
Court in recognition Of the honor paid
him in striking from the records of
the Senate all matters, and things
connected with his impeachment. By
some it is claimed that Cox could re-
cover this amount, as he was removed
from the bench some eighteen months
before the term for which he was
elected had expired, and that the ac-
tion of the legislature has now remov-
ed all obstacles to a successful suit.
The FREE PRESS is of the same opin-
ion that the Duluth Neovs is on this
matter, and that is that 'there are
mountains Of evidence still in exist
ence to prove that he was legally re-
moved from the bench and disqualified
from continuing to serve the remain
der of his term" Cox would exercise
good sense if he lets well enough
alone. He has already got all he could
expect and more than he really de-
served.

THE Presidential party have reached
Washington after journey covering
ten thousand miles, somewhat ia
tigued but thoroughly enthused with
the grandeur Of the country through
which they passed and the loyalty and
devotion of the people they met.
President Harrison made many speech
es and every word uttered was well
weighed, convincing and entertaining.
He brOadened his views of the great
country of which he has the disting-
uished honor to be the chief eXecu-
tive, and the people have a higher
opinion Of his abilities than ever. He
has grown wonderfully in popular es-
timatiOn.

A CONFEDERATION AT NEW WEST
MINISTER, B. c.
Half Million Dollars Worth Of Property
Destroyed-The Country Lit Up for
Miles Around-Several Lives Lost. q

SEATTLE, WASH, Feb. 15.-A New
Westminster special to the Post-Intelli-
gencer of this city says: This
city was today visited by a
disastrous conflagration, which de-
stroyed in the neighborhood of $5O0,000
worth OF property, and caused the death
of John McCannon, a member of the
volunteer fire brigade. At O'Clock
this morning fire broke out in the rear
of the premises occupied by F. Stirsky,
a matchmaker and jeweler, on Columbia
street. The fire brigade turned
out at once, but it was
twenty minutes before stream of water
could be brought to play. By this time
the whole block was ablaze. along with
stable in the rear, the telephone COM
pany's building and private residences.
For two hours the tiremen fought the
under control, when an explos-
stores occurred. 1t broke almost
every pane of glass within a radius of
half mile, and burst all the hose
pumping on the fire. The Masonic
temple, adjacent, had up to this mo-
ment been considered absolutely safe,
but the breakage of the win
dows caused a draft which
sucked the flames inward, and in a mo-
ment the whole interior was afire. It
was four-story brick building, with a
stone front, valued at $4,000. Nothing
was saved out OF the building but few
papers.
While fighting the flames at one of
the windows, the western wall of the
building fell in, and a fireman named
McKannen was buried under two
tons of bricks. He was taken
out, but died tonight. Another
man is reported to be buried
beneath the ruins. Floods of water
were poured on the block continually,
but ten times the amount would have
had but little effect on the fire.
Herring's drug store caught about this
time, and blazed with dazzling
light. Everything that bravery
and strength could do was
done by the firemen, but to
no avail. Their streams turned to steam
almost before they reached the skirts Of
the frightful sea of flames. The whole
sky was aflame with the lurid reflection.
1t was stated that the light was seen at
Blaine, and far up the Fraser valley and
out on the gulf.

IT rs frequent recourse of theologians
to ascEibe any misfortunes that hap
pen to their enemies to divine judg-
ment. If any good liver, who is known
to have agnostic opinions, should hap
pen to die Of apoplexy or paralysis, it is
surely Judgment direct from the seat
of the Godhead If the somewhat over
nourished individual, on the other hand,
should happen to be a genial bishop or
other ecclesiastic, he is summoned to
his Maker through special benefcence,
the manner of his death indicating that
there was such demand for him in re-
gions supernal that no sort Of delay
could be brooked on any account what
soever. What interpretation can be put
upon the visitation which has befallen
Henry George, the great apostle OF the
''Single Tax" and which is known as
saphasia," the authorities are not yet
agreed. The HERALD ventures the hardy
hypothesis that ''aphasia'' has been
dealt out to George to prevent the world
from being talked to death. Ii we can
next hear of the paralysis OF Tolstoi and
Stepniak this work-a-day world will take
breath OF exceeding comfort.
