COSTS or COURT.
sRAuLE Sent

SEATTLE, Sept IL, 1891
To THE EprToR-The question of costs charged
10 parties Liiigant in the courts of this state
should receive the prompt consideration Of the
legislature at the next session. The change
from compensation OF the state and county Of
feers by fees to fixed salaries was wisely
brought about by the constitution, but a greater
evil has arisen By the enormous costs to parties
TO actions in the courts. poor man
today cannot afford to 20 into court
% protect himself for the reason
that the fees required of him to be paid in
advance are so large that they frequently
amount TO as much as his claim. For instance,
IL costs plaintiff in the Justices court the Of
1850 at least, 70 begin punishment proceedings.
The same is true Of replsyin aud attachments.
very lew msn VINO have claims under
slo can afford TO go into the Justices
courts with such heavy costs to be paid
In advance. The same is true in the superior
courts. 1t seems unjust that parties who are SO
unfortunate a. to be compelled 70 go into court
Tor their grievances shou d, in addition, be COM
PEELED to furnish the greater part of the revenue
Tor their respective county officers. The county
receives too much from the unfortunRtes. Let
the Legislature promptly take action and reduce
these excessive costs. FRANK b. WRESTLING.

GOVERNOR HILLS FIGHT.

If the New York Democracy do not
elect Flower for governor and gain
the Legislature, 1t viii not be the
fault of Governor Hill and Tammany
Hall. Hill will leave no stone untnrned
TO secure rousing victory, for he knows
that in this event the Democratic National
convention in 1892 win turn at once to
New York for its candidate. New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut and Indiana will
control the selection, and Governor Hill
will surely BE- the choice of the New York
delegation, If he carries New York this
fall for his candidates, Flower and Shee-
han. Victory will prove that Hill is the
strongest and most popular Democrat in
the state, and under these circumstances
Governor Hill Is likely to be the Demo-
cratic candidate for president.
There is only one course for the Mug
wumps and the Cleveland Democrats in
New York, who do not want Governor
Hill nominated for president in 1892 by
the Democrats, to pursue, and that is to
vote for and elect Fassett and Repub-
lican legislature. Just SO sure as Flower
and Shechan, Hills ticket, are elected in
November, Grover Cleveland is thence
forth extinct as presidential candidate
for 1891. Democratic victory in New
York in November means that the compel
itors In the next presidential race will be
David B. Hill against Blaine or Harri-
son. II Hill is nominated for president
he will BE- bitter medicine for the Mug
wumps and the Cleveland Democracy to
swallow, and their best and only oppor-
tunity TO keep Cleveland live political
figure Is to vote solid for Fassett in No
vember.

known fact that the latest government chart of
Gray's harbor, made in 1SS1, grossly misrepre-
sents the present depth of water on the Tar and
in the channel. Indeed. it had been the general
belief that the government survey was not cor
rect al the time IL was made. This impression
was confirmed by Captain Il. W. de Courcey,
engineer for the haTbor line commission in a
recent lecture before 4 representative gathering
OF HoquiHm and Aberdeen citizens. Mr.. de Cour-
cey plainly demonstrated the fact from the goyS
eminent chart that a twelye-ioot curve had
been made across the channel OF the bar rather
than IN line with il, thus giving Il depth OF
water far below the real depth
