THE SEVENTH NAN

Yesterday Mr.. j. J. Donovan was
announced by the mayor as the APP
pointee 10 the place in tie city council
provided for by law, and was confirmed
by the vote Of that body. Mayor VIII
son exhibited in the selection Of Mr..
Donovan for this place his usual eX-
cellent judgment. Mr.. Donovan has
served heretofore in the city council,
and it is not saying too much to say
that no more popular appointment
could have been made. Mr..
Donovan is highly respected by all
good citizens who know him well He
is a gentleman Of the strictest in
tegrity, Of high order Of intelligence,
square, fair and just in his dealings
with his fellows, patriotic and public
spirited, high-minded and honorable.
He is thoroughly acquainted with the
city's needs, jealous IN its interests,
and will be active in the furtherance
Of its progress and development.
Fairhayen is 10 be congratulated

ONLY 4 MATTER OF TIME

II is a matter Of a few years only
when British Columbia and Canada
will cyme under the American flag
and be a part Of this great federal
government: and the causes that will
lead TO the annexation are quite ma
tural and reasonable.
The British empire, whose drum
beat is heard the world around and on
whose possessions the sun never sets,
will, on the death Of Queen Victoria,
experience a few changes.
1t is possible for Australia 10 secedc
at any moment and become one Of the
foremost republics Of the age. Her
population, resources, intelligence,
all point toward an independent form
Of government peculiar TO themselves.
Canada, by right, is a part Of the
United States. Her people, her COM
merce, her trade and her industries
are parallel to our own and a part Of
us. There is no reason why an imag-
mary line or river should divide the
same kind Of people.
Canada will never become, in the
true sense of the word, great or a
manufacturing region, till she is an
neXed. 1t requires Yankee blood.
money, push, energy and perseyer-
ance. mixed with that Of her own peo-
pie to make her truly prosperous.
Canada has many natural resources
which on development would pur~ a
large amount Of money in circulation
and find employment for thousands Of
people. She has mountains Of gold,
silver, iron, copper and lead, an
abundance Of petroleum and building
rotck, and in man localities they re-
main entirely undeyeloped.
The annexation Of Canada 10 the
United States would be of more adj
vantage TO the Canucks than 20 the
Yankees and this is one of the reasons
why il will be brought about in self
preservation and protection to them.
Should England have trouble with
the United States before the annexa-
tion the result Of such trouble would
be the loss Of this territory to the
British empire.

rs TO THE ENGLISH

A few days ago some one signing
himself "A Loyal Bnton," sent to
the HERALD a communication which
has been printed in these columns and
in which the writer started out by
saying:
In your editorial in Sundays paper
you make pointed allusiOn to England
as natural enemy of the United states.
You single ont an English war ship a.
the one most likely to destroy the Sound
cities.
This was, in the first place. an I'M
fair and misleading view Of the propo-
sition. The HERALD was discussing
on general grounds reasons why our
coast defenses should be strengthened.
on the trite and common sense princi-
ciple, in time Of peace prepare for
war; and simply as an Illustration.
one sentence OF the article said:
The navy yard will be of no benefit nm.
less It is properly guarded at the mouth
OF the Straits and other strategic points
along the sound; for one Englisi man-ol

Another correspondent, an "Ex-
Briton," has taken the LOYAL

gives way to let them fight it out on
that line, If it takes ali summer. En-
pdssdnt, however we desire TO say that
the Loyal Briton's" remark at clos
ing, that British money is now build
ing up Fairhayen, is about the largest
joke Of the season. We can mention
half a dozen Americans who singly
have more money invested In Fair
haven than all the English people in
the city together. With all this,
however the HERALD desires TO be
understood as being in no way. what.
ever, antagOnistic TO the English. or
any other nationality. On the con
trary, the English character is. for
the most part, decidedly admirable,

CLEAN POLITICS

The two great parties OF today, the
Republicans and the Democrats, have
been taught many severe lessons in
the past and with no seemingly good
results. When a house falls down
there must be a cause for il: either
the foundation has been bad or a cy-
clone has swept over it, or some other
cause OF such nature has broken il and
so we say when great political storms
gather and roll across the continent,
carrying everything in their wake,
there is a cause for it.
The trouble with our parties today
is that they use platforms as trans
portatiOn companies do with the en-
frances 10 their coaches. They put in
large gold letters on the outside.
please do not stand on the platform. -
1t is often so with political parties
after election; they do not want to
stand on their platforms.
A party should be as true TO its
principles and TO its business as an
individual or business firm in a COM
munity. When promises are made
they should be carried cut strictly 10
the letter OF the contract. When a
party comes before the people with
certain promises, and its candidates
are elected on the strength OF such
promises, those promises should be
redeemed.
The Grange movement Of a few
years ago and the Greenback sideshow
are today being reproduced in other
form.
The pugwumps and politicians get
their hstchets out at every political
A great amount OF this
and discomfort can be
traced directly to the drones.
A great many respectable people and
our leading business men shun the
primary and the convention, aud this

'een and make their influence felt,
or II is here that a great amount of

PUGET SOUND

No where on the surface of this
globe can be found a body Of water
like unto that Of Puget Sound.
From the head Of the Sound to the
mouth OF the Straits is something over
$50 miles, and yet there are over $500
miles Of coast, with hundreds Of
creeks and rivers emptying into this
inland sea Innumerable valleys, rich
in soil, with forests Of timber, saw
mills Of immense capacity in almost
every cove, and young cities dOtting
the coast here and there, growing into
great commercial centers with room
for all and many more.
The resources of Puget Sound are
ineXhaustible in almost every con-
ceiyable thing that might be men
toned i'm connection with bodies Of
water Of its character On being
asked what are our resources, the best
answer we can give is 10 request the
name OF what we have not.
Puget Sound is today known all over
the shipping world and it will be but
few years before more shipping will
clear from our waters than from New
York, and yet we are in our infancy
and have just commenced to grow and
prosper. We dare not draw the
curtain of the future aside and look
at ten years hence. For even our
mildest predictions We would be called
day-dreamers and enthusiasts; but the
population Of the Sound region five
years from now viii cone into the
hundreds Of thousands and will only
cause surprise that we did not place
the figures higher. We will have
railroads from California and from
British Columbia skirting the
shores Of the Sound in all
directions; and where We have
one trans-continental railroad
We viii have five, and five years from
today the waters Of Puget Sound will
afford more, finer and faster steamers
than now ply the Hudson; and the
Eastern people will not consider their
education finished until they have Wis
tied our beautiful country and looked
at the glaciers Of Alaska.
Puget Sound is free from bars. sand
pits, shoals, rock and shallow water.

merce can spread its white sails and

Well and truly did the late General
Sherman say, on his last visit 10 the
Sound, "God has done more for Puget
Sound and her people than any other
place in the world, and all you have to
do is TO reach forth your hands. joined
with capital and labor and bring forth
the richest resources Of these United
states"
