Ex-Judge Werner, Of this city, spoke at con-
siderable length on the report. lie explained the
manner In which the forty clubs Of Monroe County

AN ADDRESS Ely MRS. Fo:TER.
When this had been DONE Mrs. j. Ellen Foster
was Introduced, and she made one of her inimta
bic speeches in favor Of enlisting the service
Of the women of the country in the League. She
held the attention of the delegates for forty min
utes and told how they could interest their wives
and women friends in the cause OF protection.
There was an effort made 20 change the
method of clecting members Of the executive com
mittee as TO have them represent Assembly dis
tricts rather than Congress districts, at present
Tn re was hard fight TO make the change, but
the effort was defeated This question, will,
however. be brought up at the next convention
Of the League, and il is probable that the change
will be made. The principal rcaeon why action
was defeated on it to-day was that it did not
come up in the regular way rs an amendment 10
the Constitution. As il is now. it is thought
that the members OF the executive committee
represent such large constituencies that the repre-
sentatiOn Il not direct enough

PEACE WITH HONOR.

The American eagle can now cease
soaring and return 10 his perch and look
at the sun il calm serenity. ! he Chilean
incident" has passed into history and the
broad wings Of pace DER spread the two
countries. Chile has met the demands
of the United States; withdrawn he of
fensive Malta letter, withdrawn the re-
quest for the recall # Minister Egan,
made ample and sat isfaciory apology for
the Baltimore affair and is content that
the question of indemnify to the falnlies
OF those killed and injured in the disgrace
full ARRAY should be settled through the
usual diplomatic channels. The AMIGA
BILE end Of the difficulty is hailed with
pleasure by both nations, but the episode
will teach us the necessity Of being pre-
pared to defend the honor of our country
and the lives OF its citizens at home and
aboard. The need Of an adequate navy
and effective coast defenses is as impera-
tive as ever. The affront may not come
from u weak nation next time.

USE OF REVENUE CUTTERS

On the Atlantic coast it has long been
part of the duty Of the United States rev.
enue cutters to patrol the coast to assist
disabled or wrecked merchantmen in
stormy weather, and states show great
saving in life and property directly attri-
butable to this practice. This work
should be made part of the duty of the
cutters stationed on the Pacific coast,
more particularly from San Francisco
M rthward to Vancouver island.
These vessels are constructed much
stronger than merchantmen, ale better
manned and better equipped, and nc
doubt many of the disasters SO far re-
ported off these coasts would have been
averted had one of these cutters been al
hand.
Captain E. Eiondi, of Port Townsend,
assisted by many captains OF the mer-
chant marine, is vigorously agitating q
movement to bring the matter to the at
tention of the secretary of the treasury,
and is to be hoped success will crown
their efforts. This would be fitting
subject upon which action should be taken
by the Aberdeen board of trade.

PROTECTION NEEDED.

The series OF accidents occurring or the
North beach demonstrates the necessary
for lighthouse and life-saving station at
the entrance Of the Harbor, and it is the
duty OF every board of trade in western
Washington to promptly make such re-
presentations to congress as will assure a
speedy appropriation for the purpose. In
this connection no better argument can
be produced in favor of the proposed
patrol OF our coasts by revenue cutters.
1t certainly would not have been neces-
sary for the Ferndale to beat along
the coast for two weeks in search
OF the Columbia river had a government

HOW 1T LOOKS TO AN OUTSIDER


EDITOR HERALD II am not citizen of
Aberdeen, nor do expect to become one.

contemplate locating myself and several
thousand dollars Of capital with you, be-
cause of your especially favorable geo.
graphical location. Perhaps yon may he

me. The reasons are few and simple:
l read both Of your local papers, and
have done so for some time. l have
never seen matter preached that, on
the face of it. seemed to me to be for the
common good Of your city. but imme-
diatelv there went up howl from some
faction, and instead of united work to
attain the common good, there ensued q
Kilkenny cat fight. To be more specific:
What do you imagine would be the effect
upon an outsider of the course OF your
citizens in regard to the right of way for
a railroad into your city and the building
of schoolhouse?
This spirit of division instead OF union
has deferred me from any further serious
consideration of your city as place for
investment.
Knowing that word to the wise is
usually considered sufficient, have
thought that perhaps more than word
may be necessary for the otherwise.

REFORM IN LAND TRAINERS.

The HERALD has already called the
attention Of the legislature Of this state
to the advantages to accrue to the state
and the individual by breaking away
from the cumbersome, unweidy and un-
certain system of transferring land by
deed and the adoption of the simple and
effcacious Torrens system. There is
nothing deep, dark or mysterious about
the Torrens system-no endless search
ing after abstracts of title, as under the
existing system.
There is as much difference between
our existing system and the substitute
the HERALD would see adopted as their
il between travelling from A to h on an
enormous spiral or going between t; e
two places by the straightest possible
line.
Briefly and popularity stated, the Tor
rens system l. this: Instead of having
cumbersome abstract of each legal
: instrument conveying an interest in a
piece of real estate, complete abstract
of the land is made out to date, examined
by competent inspector, and If il passes
inspection, u certificate Of title is granted
by the state to the owner OF the real
estate. A certificate of title once granted,
all further searches for abstracts are OF
an end. Ownership of the real estate is
thereafter conveyed completely and en-
tirely by simply transferring from the
vendor to the vendee the certificate of
title. This il the great beauty of the
system in every Gay business life. 1t
makes a transfer of land as safe and
secure as transfer of stock. 1t gives to
the cautious capitalist feeling of
security he can seldom ever feel now
when handling real estate.
Every year under the present system
viii make the adoption of the one sug-
gested more difficult, Ms the number of
transfers increase In our new state,
where. as yet, titles to land are in
comparatively simple condition, the
change from one system TO the other
could be easily effected. The benefits to
be derived would be inestimable from
the increase in land values, due to the
facility and surety with which land could
be handled. There is no valid objection
to urge against the adoption of the sys-
TEN. 1t would, it is true, make less
work 70: the lawyers, but that would be
one reason the more for its adoption.
1t would not be all experiment; for it
b 8 long been in successful operation in
South Australia and just across the
border from us in British Columbia.
Further, there is this in IFS favor: Those
who object to it need not bring their
lands under its operation, as its adoption
has, in all cases, been made optional.
But, wherever it has been made law,
for every transfer under the old system
there are thousand under the Torrens
system.
The legislature of this state, when it
convenes this fall, can not do better than
adopt well digested law, based upon the
experience of those countries that have
been living under the Torrens system.

the one which asks the country to be-

THE BLAINE DIVORCE.

l1daN - puDhAn'Q long lctlcf from
James &. Blaine which he calls personal
Statement" concerning the marriage and
divorce Of his son, James G.. Blaine Jr.
ew persons can read the letter without
thinking that the Secretary Of State has
wrongfully accused poor Mary Nevins,
and that he has made more harsh the fate
Of this unfortunate young woman.
In the Boston Republic Of last week was
the following editorial comment upon the
iivorce OF young Blaine and his wife:
"Poor Mrs. james G.. Blaine Jr., has at
last secured her freedom from worthless
husband. Hc- story j. one Of extreme
sadness and suffering. When she was
only Is year of asc she. married the
Young scapcgrccc from whom she has just
been legally separated. Before she had
completed her second year Of wifehood
,he was desc r,ci and cast upon the world
with a tender and delicate infant to care
1r. sickness overlook her, and she be-
anne a cripple and hopeless invalid.
During her very months of suffering and
sorrow no word Of encouragement or
sympathy came from the Blaine family;
not dollar vas supplied from the Blaine
millions to provide noccssaries or luxuries.
Her husband was the pet Of his parents,
and for time be was employed by his
father in the public service But his
jhlicted VIII. evidently never caused him
aHhought or regret.
@"The author Of this tragic chapter in
ne wrecked life of beautiful girl was
Mrs. Jamss g. Blaine, From the story
detailed before the Dakota divorce court
il appears that the young couple went to
Augusta with their child by invitation Of
the secretary OF state and his wife. The
latter had taken a deep dislike to her
laughter in-law, chiefly upon the ground
nat she is a Catholic. During her stay
a the Blaine homestead her life was made
unbearablc. Mrs. Blaine, ST., is known
10 be an imperious and domineering
voman, and all her most Objectionable
talents in this direction were employed to
umiliate the delicate girl who had
married into her family. The object was
lain. She wanted TO separate the young
husband and wife, and she wanted the
latter to be the first to move in the matter.
Taking her sickly child with her,
Young Mrs. Blaine fled to New York, and
wrote her husband asking him to join her.
lis mother prevented their reunion by
ner power over her son. They have never
met since. Let it be remembered that
Mrs. Blaine aspircs TO be mistress of the
White House, the first lady in tho land,
}nd the oxamplar TO American women.
lrhe wreck OF young and devoted wife's
life lies across the path OF her ambition.
The honest mothers and wives Of the land
will not forget her cruelty to Mary
Nevins, nor her cold-blooded intriguing,
which resulted in widowing an honest
wife and making James g. Blaine, I'd, an
rorphsn.
