The Seeds OF Retribution.

Our Trust-destroyine contemporary. the
CAtcdgo Inter Ocean, 10 informed tnee the
Governors OF thirty-seven States have an
swered Yea to the invitation OF Governor
kNUTK NELSON OF Minnesota to an Anti
Trust powwow at Chicago next Juno. 1t Is
not clear whether the Governors are going
themselves or whether they Will content
themselves with despatching ten commits =
sloners each, at cut rates. Nor Ia 1t clear
who is going to foot the bills. point that
has caused some discussion In Minnesota,
which appears to be about the only place
except the Inter Ocean Office where the pro-
posed conference is regarded reverently.
Minnesota Is full Of Populists and OF
DoNNELLY. and hence approaches the sub
1ect OF Trusts In the tragic vein.
We hope. and everybody else hopes. that
the visiting Governors and delegates will
enjoy themselves in Chicago. and keep out
OF the hands of the bunco men. Presum-
ably the Worlds Fair directory will furnish
the distinguished Trust smashers with
passes. II. however. any Governor feels
that he would rather wait until fall before
visiting the Fair. We dare say that he can
be absent from the Antitrust conference
without injuring the country perceptibly.
Governor FLOWER and Governor MATTHEWS
seem to think that there is business enough
for Governor to attend to In his own State
without whirling out to Chicago for the
purpose OF remarking that Trusts are
naughty things. Governor FLOWER has
lately signed very stringent law against
gentlemen who combine to put up the price
OF any article necessary to life and health.
and Is justified in thinking that he has
done enough in the way Of legislation
against Trusts in this State.
The Inter- Ocean, which regards as q mlnion
OF Wall street every Governor who will not
promise to send commissioners, uncon-
sciously demonstrates the superauity OF an
Antitrust conference In these words:
There are few persons who pront BY these Trus,s
but many OF those who expect to gain personal advsn
taRe mud themselves disappointed in the end. The
Whiskey Trust has suffered vast losses. the cordags
combine went to tho wall. and thsre is hardly . day
that does not bring to light fresh evidence OF the
dom OF such combinations They arc not busin nessiks
They have In themselves tho seeds OF retrbution."
II these combinations are unbusinesslike,
they will fall to pieces without any dyna-
mite OF rhetoric or legislation. II they are
wicked concerns. why are not the Hon.
KNUTE NELSON and his corps OF Governors
and commissioners willing to let the
wicked persons who expect to gain per-
sonal advantage therefrom. be grievously
disappointed Surely. there need be no
trumpet blasts from band OF Governors to
make the walls OF the eunbusinesslike Jericho
totter and tumble down. Still. the Fair
buildings are monstrous fine buildings. and
the conference will have the satisfaction,
while wandering among them. Of knowing
that the seeds Of retribution are ripening
all the time for the unwise combinations.

The chief hope We have for our Beripg

cede our property right in the seals. Gen.

ofthe court Of exchequcr, Baron Wilde, rs
follows:
In cases where either their osn induced hnbits.
or the confinement imposed by man, hare brought

not refuse To recognize III the owner OF the land
which sustained them property coextensiyc
with tina. state OF things.
The departure of bees. which have an
invariable habit of returning. does not de-
stroy property right in them, and Gen.
Tracy cites Blackstone 10 show that the
oRit,us rcrcrtend;. the intention Of return
ing, settles the question of property.
This right OF property goes only so Tar as
the capacity for identification exists.
When the seals pass south of the Aleu,ian
chain our government has no right TO
protect them. because it has no means of
identifying them. Blu, when, in the follow
ing spring. the herd in one vast body con-
centrates and makes It's way northward

the identity OF tho property becomes re-
established. and the right Of the United

WITHOUT REGARD TO FACTIONS


Jennings Backed by Bankers, Not Poll.
ticians-Has Good Qualifications.
The appointment of Thomas f. Jen.
nlngs, of this city, to be national bank
examiner gives comfort to neither faction
of the Democracy. for Mr.. Jennings aifili-
ates with neither. His appointment is
practical proof that the president can and
will find good Democrats to fill the offices
without accepting tho candidates Of either
of the warning factions.
Mr.. Jennings is a native Of Tennessee,
about 50 years old. and comes of one of the
best families in Nashville. his grandfather
being one Of the richest men there and
owning fine residence on Fifth avenue,
New York. He came to Washington
about three years with a good business
experience, having been manager of q
large manufacturing industry in Nash
vile and then held responsible position
i'm the Fourth National bank. one OF the
largest in Tennessee. When he first came
to this state he established and became
cashier Of the Commercial National bank,
OF Port Townsend. where his brother,
Robert W. Jennings, is now city attorney.
His health failing. he went East. land on
returning in 1891. he became accountant

Mr.. Jennings owes his appointment to
the bankers rather than to the politicians,
for he is no politician and has never
trained with either wing Of the Democ-
racy. II his appointment is victory for
either faction, i. is the Tillicums headed
by Chief Wallace. for Saunders, who is
their candidate for collector, is connected
with the Commercial National bank. of
Port Townsend. He had strong letters of
recommendation from the leading bank
ers throughout the state without regard

had thorough training in the banking

The spring season has been exceedingly
backward no. only in this state. but all
over Our Northern country from the Pacific
TO the Atlantic seaboard. The Philaiel-
phia Press complains that with June but
two weeks distant the temperature Is
more suited 10 the las; Of March and early
April than 20 the last half of May. The
New York Tribune makes the same COM
plain. and il is evident that the whole
Northern section Of the United States has
experienced one of the coolest and most
backward MaJs on record.
As late rs Monday last Seattle was
afflicted with most unreasonable weather.
but since that date the days have been
most delightfully."- warm aud bright. Since
April 10 some phenomenal! rains have
fallen at the East, such as 2li inches in
one storm at Albany. n. y. May 4. and
800 inches at New York city during the
twenty-sour hours ending at 10 o'clock
May 5. Similar rains have set the rivers
booming in New England. New York and
the Western states. and caused destruction
to life and property. The past FIVE weeks
have in the Middle West been remarkable
for the large number OF cyclones and
thunder storms.
The Mississippi river this month has
risen to the brim of the levees with the
food caused by the unexampled rains.
The average temperature for the month of
April in Minneapolis was lower than
any April since 1875. and the rainfall was
greatly in excess Of that recorded since
1865. The latter measured 6.22 inches as
compared with an average of 2.4l inches.
Minneapolis had but five clear days in
April. and PhiIadelphia but six.
These figures ought to satisfy our Seattle
grumblers that our exceptionally severe
winter and backward spring have not been
peculiar to this Coast. January and Feb
ruary were exceptionally cold in the Mid
die West and on the Atlantic seaboard,
and the wet weather we experienced in
April ana the first half of May has not
only afflicted the whole country in our
latitude from ocean to ocean. but has been
the rule on the Atlantic seaboard as far
south rs Washington City
