HOW LONGITUDE INFLUENCES
PRINCIPLES-OF SOME.

The Kentucky democrats are long
way off being free traders. Their COM
mercial instincts have been awakened
and they know the disastrous conse-
quences likely to follow Tree trade.-Bul-
letin.
This will, no doubt, be news to any
Kentucky democrat who may read it..
The principles underlying free trade are
the same today that they have always
been, and it is about as likely that Ken
tucky's views on the subject will change
as it is that the Kentucky colonel will re-
fuse TO take something stronger than
water.
The surprising part of the above is that
it should be the outpouring of a former
British-Kentucky free trade democrat,
whose conversion has been effected by a
change of few degrees Of longitude, and
the acquisition Of financial interests in
high tariff republican newspaper.

ally that of the senator identified with
Eastern Washington and without visible
obligations to Seattle. Governor Moore
is defending the interest Of the whole
state against sacrafce to that of purely
local enterprise, not legitimately govern

to the larger interests of the people Of
Washington than the senators they have

THE LESSONS.

The lessons of the election Saturday
show that it is always best to consider
every municipal question upon its merits
rather than merely personal grounds.
The HERALD was opposed to the two
propositions, taken together, and accom-
plished its end by deafting one. 1t did
this not by indHlging in TRADES against
the editor of any other paper or against
any individual; but by an outspoken
criticism of the ordinances as they stood
in print. An attempt was made to an
swer this criticism with personalities and
with nothing else. The result was nee
essarily q failure fol the personalities.
The narrow-minded autocratic idea
that the acts of the city council are not
to be the subject of adverse criticism has,
also, to some extent, been dissipated.
Fortunately its only Judgment has been
in the minds of the very few who would
like to boss the job of running the entire
city after their own methods. AS mat
ter of fact the people can not be in too
close touch with the council in every
matter connected with our municipal
government. And the newspaper that
differs from the council, and dares not
saw SO for fear OF offending some of the
individual members, has very peculiar
conception OF its functions.

OUR MARKET.

That the HERALD is no friend OF the
Chinaman scarcely needs saying. Our
self-preservation speaks louder than any,
thing else in favor of Johns total exclu-
sion as an immigrant. But are we not
seriously injuring our own commercial
interestsin holding the Chinese nation
responsible for British wrong? The
Cinnamon coming to this country come
from the British port OF Hong Kong, a
port entirely under the control and gov
eminent OF Great Britain. One of the
important factors of the future greatness
OF Washington and Oregon will be their
trade with China. AS John Russell
Young says in the May North American !:
1--WE are the neighbors Of these empires.
The richest markets in the world are
nearer to us than we're Liverpool or
Queenstown twenty years ago. This
commercial empire of the east, if may
so call it, belongs ous by the ties Of
geography, enterprise and sympathy.
We have no interests that jar with these
vast and venerable empires. We do not
menace their independence like Russia,
nor seek the profits of shame like those
reaped from the opium sin by England.
Emigration or immigration in whatever
form should be the merest accident. 1t
could be arranged whenever we take it
seriously in hand. There is every reason
why we should he the ally and not the
enemy of China"
Fortunately for Great Britain and the
Canadian Pacific railroad, but unfortun--
ately for us, degree OF longitude is short
er the farther we 60 from the equator to-
ward the pole, and Chinese products COM
ing in this direction will always find
their destinations via Vancouver and the
Canadian Pacific railroad, unless we can
establish friendly relations with China,
and through the superior harbors of
Gray's Harbor and the Columbia river
attract to us the ships that will otherwise
find their way into British waters.
