A New York Correspondent Compares
tho Puget Sound Cities.
letter from the correspondent of the New
York Times, written from this city and describ-
ing the great resources of Puget sound. contains
the following paragraphs in regard to Seattle:
much-dscussed question In the East il
which is going to be the large city on Puget
sound. One need only to make a tour of the
Sound region and the question IL settled. There
IL only one city that has grown up naturally,
ted by Eastern specuators and townsite
promoters. II Is Seattle, with'a history of forty
years. Its present population is 10000. OF the
many towns that have risen within the last ten
years Tacoma is the only one that has attained
any size or relative Importance, and even that
cannot be considered a rival of Seattle for the
supremacy. The towns along the north shore
are all very dull. Everett, where the Great
Northern reaches tidewater. the seat of large
manufactures, 10 the only place where there is
any commercial activity.
Seattle and Puget sound have recently been
under consideration in congress. house com.
mittee has reported favorably on the project of
deepening existing waterways to form ship
canal through North Seattle 30 al to afford COM
munication to the fresh water harbor Of Lake
Washington. This 10 a splendid sheet OF water
twenty-six miles long, three miles wide. and
from fifty to 80 feet deer. 1t is admirably
adapted for coaiiug station ana naval rem
devious. It Is the only completely sheltered
fresh water harbor on the Pacific coast.
The city OF Seattle occupies peninsula from
one to two miles in width between these fine
bodies OF salt and fresh water. bearing some re-
semblancs to New York cisy's insular position.
pleasant predictiop was recently mado by Mr..
f. 7. Nichols. of New York, treasurer OF the
Great Northern aiiway:
with such splendid water facilities for pleas
ure and business traffic around the city and
along the Sound, there is nothing TO prevent 3
development OF this shore-line region Ike that
along the Connecticut and Long Island coast.
Boat lines will work in perfect harmony with
the new shore lines OF railroads. with all the
railroads out OF New York to Providence, New
port aud Boston. the Sound steamboats, flourish.
In fact. the one kind Of transportation helps the
other. II gives people u pleasant variety, and
encourages travel and residence at distance
from the city. l see no reason why there should
not in time be just as fine steamboats, on Puget
sound AZ on Long Island sound
A familiar sight TO New Workers Is the City OF

tween New York AMI Poughkeepsle. now doing
good service on these waters The City of

of the elegant Alaska and trans-Pacihc steam

The prospects of the election Of Senator
Allen are brighter now than they have
ZEN At any time during the session.
II has been demonstrated beyond . ques-
ton that his supporters will remain
firm to the end. There is therefore
no possibility OF the election of any
other man. Under these circumstances
there IL every reason to believe that
enough of the men who have supported
Judge Turner so long and SO loyalty will
change to Senator Alien to elect him.
There is no longer any excuse for doing
otherwise. Any Republican who persists
in the attempt to prolong the deadlock to
the end of the session will be guilty of a
deliberate betrayal Of his party.
The Democrats are earnestly endeavor-
ing to prevent an election in the hope that
II Senator Allen is appointed they will be
eble In two years to control the legisla-
ture and elect Democrat to succeed him.
II matters not how iIl-founded their hope
may be. no Republican has the right to
give them even the opportunity of really
ing Il. No honest Republican will do So

OFFICIAL SALARIES.

The estate of the late Samuel J. Randall
the distinguished leader Of the Democracy
III congress for many years, was recently
settled without money and without debts.
Mr.. Randall made his salary of S., 900 pay
his way, and yet today 1000 is considered
inadequate pay for a cabinet officer. The
salary is ample for decent private l.v.
ing; and there is nothing in the official
duties of cabinet officer which makes ex.
travagance or social display necessary.
The official salary of the president of the
United States is large compared with
that Of the ab!est Congressman because
his position As the dispenser of national
courtesy and hospitality compels him to
indulge in expenditures tina, do not with
equal severity of obligation surround any
other public station.
The salary OF the judges of the supreme
cour; of the United States is small com.
pared with the income of great lawyer
IA the best years OF his practice. but 1t is
ample because il is for life. and in event

Grover Cleveland becomes today for the
second time president Of the United States.
Theoretically. at least, the president of the
United States is patriot. not mere par
tisan: he is the shepherd. the pilot. the
sheriff Of the whole people, and today
every good American citizen is disposed
TO respectfully salute Mr.. Cleveland and
wish him full measure of success in giving
the nation an excellent administration.
1t is due to Mr.. Cleveland to say that he
Is good deal more of a man mentally and
morally than he. was when he became
president March 4. 1885 In March, 1885.
Mr.. Cleveland was man of provincial
reputation, experience and training; he
had never held any public Office of conse-
qnencc save that of governor of New York;
he had not been q member OF his state
Legislature; had never been farther West
than Cleveland. O.. had never visited the
South; had seldom visited Washington

marriage Mr.. Cleveland has steadily grown

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

There is reason to believe that some of
the men who have been most bitter in
their opposition TO Senator Allen have
made up their minds to desert the Repub-
lican party, ana arc now DESTROYS of doing
II n much injury a. possible before leaving
II. To these men We have only this to say.
that the party will be better and stronger
without them than with them. If they
think that their betrayal and desertion
will do them any good or the party any
harm they misunderstood the regard in
which honest men Of all parties hold rene
gades and traitors. aud entirely underrats
the force and vitality of Republican prin.
ciples. We venture the assertion that the
Republican party will be found to be in
the future. - It has been in the past. the
party Of progress, and that in the next few
years It viii gain and not lose strength
with the people.
Il II gratifying to know that there are
among the supporters of Judge Turner
only few men who would thus deliber.
stcly betray the trust that their party has
reposed In them by seeking its disruption.
The few that there are, however, should
not receive the sanction and encourage
ment Of tho honorable men who are now
voting with them. As soon a. their pur.
pose II disclosed. as 1t will be before tho
close OF the session. they should DO ex-
posed and held up to public scorn and con.
