SEATTLE. TUESDAY. APRIL 10.
THE COMPTRoLLERsHIP.

The prompt confirmation of Mr.. ]. NJ.
Carson as city comptroller by the board of
aldermen last evening was a sig
nal victory for Boss Gilman and
Mayor Ronald over the young men who
were mainly instrumental in winning the
Democratic municipal victory and who
naturally expected to assist in the distri-
button of patronage. 1t was pretty fight
while it lasted, but the whip of the boss
brought majority of the aldermen into
line.
So far as Mr.. Carson is personally con-
cerned the observation-disclosures has little
interest in his fight. 1t desires only
TO see good men in positions of trust
under the city government. Especially
in so important an Office as that
of comptroller there should be man
whose integrity is above suspicion. Seri-
Gus charges were made against Mr.. Carson
by reputable citizens, and the people of
Seattle had a right to expect an in
vestigation of those charges before
he was confirmed. No such investigation
was made, and Mr.. Carson enters upon
the duties Of his office under cloud of
suspicion which is not dispelled by the
mere assertion of Boss Gilman and Mayor
Ronald that the comptroller is an honest
man.
1t may be good politics, or good gov
srnment, to ignore charges SO serious, but
it i'd scarcely in harmony with the reform
cry which the Democrats shouted SO
vociferously few weeks ago.

and our Canadian kinsmen, and if either
of them ventured to oppose such triumph
of right feeling and good sense, it would
be repudiated at the ballot box"
We would without doubt assume the
Dominion public debt and incorporate it
with the national debt of the United
States; We would not assume the munich
pal debts of Canadian cities, but "indi-
rectly we should help to pay them,
through the trem endous increase of Cana
dian population and prosperity which
would be sure to follow annexation. The
disposition of the provincial debts might
present some difficulty, and indeed this is
the only point which would require mature
consideration and concessions on both
sides. 1t is probable, however. that if the
Canadian provinces would. in their col
lective capacity, do what Texas did, make
over to US certain portion of the outlay
ing public lands, We might deem it ex-
pedient, and even profitable. to relieve
them of their provincial debts, and thus
enable them to start fair in their new
political career"

SALTED OIL FIELDS.

SEATTLE, April IS, 1892.
To THE EDITOR: Some eight or ten days ago
1 saw a notice in your paper of coal oil having
been discovered near Stauwood on John Nc
Ardles and other farms. For the benefit OF the
public desire to make the statement that what
l found upon examination was placed there by
some intriguing person, for what purpose l
would not presume to say. In the language OF
old miners, it has been sailed. I make this
statement SO no one will be swindled. The oil
used here may be some of the same oil that was
attempted to be used at Sedro to salt several
places, but the trick was accidentally foiled by
custom-house officers hunting for opium coming
across the oil hid in the woods.

sfost Profitable.
Undoubtedly the most marked change
IN the handling Of beef cattle during
tho past few years has been the system,
now In vogue and rapidly Increasing,
OF finishing of a steer for the block be.
foro he has turned 2 years old. Great
credit must be given TO the fat stocl;
shows for having educated tho rank and
fle Of our feeders up to this point.
Our surplus has TO face tho fierce fro
of competition from all parts Of tho
globe. In the southern part Of this con-
tinont 70 vast herds Of cattle whose
owners have 20 find market for their
overflow. In Australia the cry "a echoed
across the sea OF too much beef and
mutton. Even In some Of tho European
countries thoro Is meat for export. For
years past our safety has lain in n virgin
soil, generous climate mud cheap trans.
portation, but the improvements In
steamships is bridging vast distances,
and the era Of fiercer competition looms
up in the distance.
We must be up and doing. You can.
not reduce tho cost Of beef production
m II II were wheat, by cheaper machin.
cry and improved methods OF handling.
You can Of course help 1t in this way.
but tho only true system Is to improve
tho breed and handle 1t moro judicious-
". Improvement of blood comes largely
from capital, but 1t takes skill, science
and practical experience added to tho
above to produce first class beef IN hale
che time required some years ago, even
provided you have the material to work
upon. To obtain this end an animal
must DO fed from It's infancy. 1t must
mover DO allowed to rctrograde. We do
not say Il should be crowded right along,
but the growth must DO steadily onward,
and toward tho end tho pressure must
b. greater.
The profitable time to sell bullock
Just now Is when It has reached / $50 to
1900 pounds, live weight. and that
weight should DO reached before 9 years
old with average feeding. Where one
buyer will look at u big, fat 1,5OO.pound
bullock you have three or four custom.
ers for the lighter weight. The producer
should cater TO tho consumers taste. In
doing SO ho helps himself az tho same
time. In this mundane sphere the re-
