COLE OF SIERRA.
Words of Praise from a Marysyille
Paper-His Qualifications.

From the Marysville Democrat.1
The announcement has been made that
ID. L. Cole of Sierra County has been. or
is to be, appointed to the position of
Harbor Commissioner, soon to become
vacant. This is an important office and
one that should be filled by man of
good business ability and strict integrity.
as there is considerable chance for a
big leakage in that place. The Dem
Ocrdt is not partisan journal and sell
dom takes part in discussing the qualifi-
cations and merits of men for political
office, yet we feel inclined to saw that
Governor Markham will make no mis-
take if ne appoints Mr.. Cole. He is a
pioneer citizen of the State and has
filled with ability and strict integrity
several important Offices of honor and
trust. At present Mr.. Cole owns quite
large property interests in Nuba County
both real and personal, and is one of the
directors of the Northern California Bank
of savings in Marysville. He is also
largely interested in hotel and mill prom
erty in Sierra County, where he resided
many years, until about four years ago.
when he bought real property in san
Francisco and erected buildings, expend-
ing about S60, ,0U0, and resides in thai CITY.
AT the election of 1890 he was a nominee
in this district for member of the State
Board of Equalization and came within a
few votes of defeating II. II. Beamer. re-
ceiving vote largely in excess of that of
his party. Mr.. Cole was delegate to the
National Republican Convention held at
Minneapolis last year, and for years past
has taken an active and conspicuous part
in the politics of the State. His appoint
ment will be received with general salts
faction, and he will be found an efficient
and honest official. who will at all times
stand with the people and oppose Doodle
measures.

the western part OF Africa a French CO.
Ionlal empire of grand dimensions. AL
ready in possession of Algiers and Tunis,
the French aspire to the control of the
Western Sahara, the Valley of the Niger,
and large part OF the Guinea coast. The
Sahara IS by no means the desolate sandy
desert that has been depicted in school
books. but abounds in oases which are
capable OF supporting large population.
| Experience has shown that in many
places W ater may be obtained by sinking
arteslan wells, and this being the case, the
! desert may yet blossom like the rose. A
railroad has already been projected 10
connect the Algerian possessions of
France with the coast of Guinea, but COM
| plete subjection of the hostile tribes Of
coast and interior is a necessity before
! such line can be built, to say nothing OF
its maintenance. The French military
operations against Dahomey are therefore
in line with the French progress south
ward through the Sahara; Dahomey must
be conquered before the French African
empire can exist. Many months ago the
war was begun by French aggression
| from the French colonies in Guinea, and
has been going on with varying success
ever since.
The Amazons fight well, and the char
acter of the country through which the
French have been forced to make their
ing passed the coast, they are now pene-
trating the forests and mountains a few
miles inland. but the AmaZons are skill
full in bush fighting and the French are
placed at no small disadvantage, having
repeatedly fallen into ambuscades. Of
their ultimate success but little doubt can
be entertained, for their superiority of
weapons and their military training gives
them an advantage that the unframed
courage, even of the Dahoman Amazons,
cannot overcome, and their conquest oil
the county will remove one of the most
appalling blots on the face of the earth.
Civilized races are not commonly gentle
i'll their dealings with savages, and the
stories from time to time made public of
French cruelty TO their prisoners may be
all true; but even when all this is taken
into the account, the establishment of a
responsible government in DahOmey and
the abolition of the horrid sacrifices will
rid Africa of one Of its most terrible
curses, the wanton destruction of life
