BRINGS MONEY TO THE SOUND.


Value OF tho Sealing Business, which
the Governments Drives Away.
Captain J. C. Nixon yesterday paid off
the crew of the sealing schooner Allie l.
Alger before Shipping Commissioner d.
A. Mckenzie. The hunters, who all work
on shares. received from $500 to 81. 500
apiece, and the sailors and other members
of the crew from $500 to $500 apiece. Cap
tain Nixon said:
The total amount OF wages I have paid this
crew was about $500. The whole expense OF
fitting out the vessel with supplies and
everything when she went ont, aud
the wages paid the crsw on
her return. amounts to about
$4,000 Iexpect the Henry Dennis In in . few
days. and will give any man $4,000 who will
assume all her expenses. You can figure that
every sealing schooner fitting out and buying
her supplies here and paying off her crew on
her return leaves at least $4,000 here on an
average But the policy of our government has
driven all this business to Victoria. Something
like seventy-two sealers went out from the
British side this season. aud it 10 safe to say that
at least fifty of them American vessels carry
ing the British flag. Just think of the amount
OF business these fifty vessels would bring Seat
tie, Port Townsend and other Sound towns, If
they had not practically been forced to give up
carrying the American flag.

Great Northern Crossing OF Columbia.
WENTAcHEE, Sept. Especial. Work
has begun on the Great Northern transfer
across the Columbia, three miles below
Wentachee and six miles above the site
selected for bridge. There are rumors
that the location of the bridge will be
changed, and that it will be built near the
transfer or at the mouth of the Wenta-
chez on the line surveyed by Engineer
Thompson. The grade nearly completed
from the present site to the new location
would be useless.

The remainder of the material for the
Everett Il Monte Cristo railroad is ex-
Jacted here this week. The clipper ship
Abner Coburn sailed from New York on
May 10 with 2, 500 tons of the material and
about the same quantity of wire for the
Everett Nail Works and is due at Everett
about September 5. The ship Annie H.
Smith sailed ten days earlier from New
York, but sprung her rudder and was de-
layed for about two weeks at Port Stanley,
Falkland islands, for repairs, so that she
should be here very soon after the Coburn.
She brings about 1900 tons of rails and
fastenings.
Meanwhile track-laying has been sus-
pended after reaching Granite Falls, six
and one-half miles from Hartford. The
completed track is being ballasted and
supplies are being hauled over it.

was the morning rendezvous from seven to
eight, the day and night watch on the ram

easements which were to shelter these

Among these soldiers of the National
Guard Philip Durand and CASTOR Mortemar
were both numbered. The charmed life of

Captain Lyons Name Stricken From the
Declaration of Independence.
There is a curious tradition in the
Lyon family, of Ball Ground, Ga,
says the Atlanta Constitution. Captain
P. H. Lyon says that the first of the
family to come to this country were
four brothers, one of whom was his
great-grandfather. They settled in
Virginia and North Carolina. When
the struggle with Great Britain for
liberty came at last one of them be-
came very prominent and was hon
ored by his fellow citizens sending him
as a delegate to the continental con-
gress.
While in congress the independence
OF this country was declared and the
Declaration Of Independence was
signed, he being one of the signers. 1t
seems that he was an enthusiastic
rebel in his hatred toward the mother
country and very anxious that that
power be crushed at once.
About the end of the disastrous cam
paign Of l776 he became so exasper-
ated at what he termed Washington's
vacillating policy and weak methods
of dealing with the enemy that he
made very bitter attack in congress
on the commander-in-chief. In few
days came the brilliant victories at
Trenton and Princeton.
This success of our arms put Delegate
Lyon in u bad box. Washington's
friends, smarting under the scoring
they had received, determined on re-
venge, The test of loyalty to the
colonial cause was, Are you loyal to
Washington" and, of course, as he
was not he was not in for it. A motion
was made to expel him from the con-
gress, and after a strong debate was
carried.
Not only was he expelled, but his
name was erased from the Declaration
OF Independence. Curious was it notp

history does not mention the incident

OF his choice no fewer than l. 900, 900, :
900, 900 kisses, and as such contracts
are not infrequently made in love-let-

to the magnitude of the undertaking.
Whoever will take the trouble to fig

amorous Southerner should give the
lady 5000 kisses minute land we
affirm that no person could hope to do
more than that, and even il he could
keep up this rate of OSCILLATION twenty
four hours day, never pausing to
sleep, eat or take breath, working
S65 days every year, it would take him
more than 100 years to complete the
contract and by that time, it is pain
full to reflect the ardor of his love may

would remain an undelivered balance
of 200. 900, 100000 a number of

industrious.

Trade interchange on the basis Of re-
ciprocal advantages to the countries
participating is a tune hOnOred doctrine
OF democratic faith. but we denounos
the cham reciprocity which juRgles with
the peoples desire for enlarged foreign
markets and freer exchanges by pre-
tending to establish trade relations with
a country whose articles OF export are
almost exclusively agricultural, while
erecting custom house barrier OF pro-
hibitve tariff taxes against the richest
countries of the world that stand ready
to take our entire surplus of products.
and to exchange therefor commodities
which are necessary and are comforts OF
life among our own people.
We recognize in trusts and mOnopolies
which are designed by capital to secure
more than their just share Of the joint
product Of capital aud labor a natural
consequence of prohibitiVe taxes, which
prevent the free competition which is the
the life Of honest trade, but we believe
their worst evils can be abated by law,
and we demand the rigid enforcement
OF laws made to prevent and control
them, together with such further legisla-
ton in restraint of their abuses as ex-
perience may show to be necessary.
