THEY SUCCEEDED.

Long before the Olympian passed into
the hands Of its present proprietors, and
previous to the beginning Of the black
mailing schemes inaugurated in this com
munity to keep it afloat for ninety days
longer, THE TRIBUNE urged that strong
effort should be made to bring the fall con
Yention and all future political conventions
Of the republican party to Olympia, the
capital of the state. 1t also urged that the
headquarters of the state central commits
tee should at all times be established here.
With urgent and singular unaninlity in
Seattle last night, the delegation from this
county showed the justice of holding the
conventions at the state capital, as being
nearer the center of travel from all sections
of the state. The Thurston delegation pre-
#sented able arguments as to hotel and other
accommodations Of Olympia, which were
convincing to majority of the committee
pAA"u Ny P4b was 5GAC p1OpG1 place. 4 ne
state committee saw the justice Of the claim
and selected this city for the holding of the
fall convention.
Our county delegation to the Seattle
convention presented no candidate for DEL
egate or alternate to the Minneapolis con
Yention. 1t went there instructed to bring
the state convention to olympiaif it could,
and it succeeded in doing it. Lying tele-
grams relative to this matter, so common
to Nick's organ, have appeared in that
sheet for the last three days purporting to
come from Seattle. They effect nothing.
Their author is too well known. He has
been known to sign another persons name
to dispatches without consent. 1t is the
stock il trade Of blackmailer to try to
defame the character Of better men than
himself.

A LIGHTHOUSE WANTED.

A board of engineers of the United States
army has declared that it cannot recon-
mend ''as indispensable" a lighthouse at
Gray's Harbor, "Oregon." 1t believes,
however, sit is desirable" In the first
place the board does not appear to be
posted enough to know where Gray's Har-
Dor is located, and in the second place it
evidently has never read much about
Gray's Harbor. Thirdly, it would be high
" desirable for the board to visit the Har-
Dor and ascertain the history Of the wrecks
strewn along the upper Washington coast,
for want Of a proper lighthouse at the .Har-
Dor entrance. One Of the largest rivers
the Chehalis wholly within this state,
pours its waters into the harbor in ques-
tion. 1t is naYigable for large vessels for
more than twenty-five miles. Captain Boil
ton w. DeCourcey, the we'll known chief
engineer and surveyor of Gray's Harbor
for the harbor line commission, says, aThe
more I look at this harbor, the more i am
impressed that it affords the most interest
ing problem on the Pacific coast, in Wash
ington." He then shows that vessels
drawing as much as seventeen feet have
been passing out, timber laden, for many
years there are no teredos in the harbor
which is fifteen miles east and west, of a
somewhat triangular shape, and about
twelve miles wide in the widest part.
Three miles out in the ocean, past its
mouth is a bar of sand and breakers, and
there is evidence that twenty-five feet
depth at low water has been found upon
it. There are thriving cities and towns on
the Harbor, one Of them the Pacific coast
terminus Of the Northern Pacific. Old sea
captains who have been sailing in and out
Of the harbor for twenty years say they
have never found under 10 feet on the bar
, 1892-04-15

and they have come in at all stages Of the
tide. Think ofa harbor Of such CONNER
cial importance without a light house at
either the north or south point of entrance.
We hear that new light house will
shortly be completed on Destruction
Island This is nearer to Cape Flattery
than Grays Harbor and stands out five
miles from the rocky and dangerous head
lands Of the coast. All sea captains admit
that light house ought to be erected at
one Of the entrances to this fine harbor,
which is growing in commercial import
ance every day.
The wrecked ship Abercorn lies but a
few miles above the northern entrance of
this harbor and the Ferndale was wrecked
near the same place but a few weeks ago
and all hands lost but three. Washington
does not appear to be getting much out of
the appropriations this year. Oregon,
however, is doing we'll.

TIE Washington senators appear to for
get that "public Improvements are made
for the improvement Of the country, and
the wider the area affeetedthe more readily
does congress authorize them. The pro-
ducers Of a quarter Of million square
miles would feel the beneficial effects of
free navigation Of the Columbia. So much
can not be said for the Lake Washington
canal, desirable as such an improvement
would be. There is a marked distinction
between opening this great natural high
way to unobstructed navigation and build
ing local canal for the benefit Of single
city, and it is distinction congress has al
