mington when not in congress. In
1854 he was United States district at
torney for Delaware. In 1869 he entered
the United States senate and remained
there till 1885,. when he entered Presi-
dent Clevelands cabinet as secretary of
state. He is gentleman of fine pres
ence, of dignity and winning address,
and his general air and bearing are such
as, according to popular opinion at any
rate, to recommend him to the English.
Next TO the English mission, that to
Chill, though not next in rank, attracts
rather the most attention, and to this
post President Cleveland has appointed
James ID. Porter. who was assistant Soc
Rotary of state to Secretary Bayard. He
is about 81 years old and was born in
Paris, Tenn, which is still his home
He was educated at the National college
at Nashville and at the Lebanon law
school, attained success as lawyer,
served two OF three terms in the legis-
lature and was known as "strong
Union man." Even after the war began
he introduced unionist resolutions into
the legislature and tried to have Ten
nessee follow Kentuckys first move and
remain neutral, but yielded when beaten
and served through the war ON General
Cheathams staff. Since the war he has
been circuit judge and governor.
At the same time James A. Mckenzie
Of Kentucky was named as minister to
Chilis neighbor and recent foe, Peru.
The new minister was known in the
Forty-seventh congress as one of the
jolliest of jolly and jovial coterie of
Kentuckians which included Proctor
Knott and Joseph Blackburn. In truth,
he made such reputation as a humorist
and orator that he was thereafter in de-
mand as delegate to Democratic conven-
tons, and at st. Louis in 1888 he made a
notable speech. in which he ikened

old, a lawyer by profession, but farmer
and stockman by occupation.
The missions to Central America are
liable TO become highly important at any
time, not only because of the Nicaragua
canal, but by reason of possible sudden
revolutions and complications like that
of the Barrundia affair. As minister to
Nicaragua, Costa Rica and San Salvador,
the president has named Lewis Baker,
the popular editor and manager of the
st. Paul Daily Globe. He was born in
Belmont, O., Nov. Z, 1882, was left an
orphan in infancy, and after getting the
rudiments of an education at the "old
log schoolhouse" did the rest for him.

He became an editor at 90, was for q

the politics of Ohio, West Virginia and
Minnesota.

A writer in one of the Eastern papers
says that no one who has read the daily
papers during the last year has failed
TO note that almost every sheet of a
certain persuasion every day has its
fling at Mr.. Carnegie. After declaim-
ing against him, these papers invari-
ably declare that the United States
must have the restrictions taken from
trade. Now, if Mr.. Carnegie had not
come to America he would have car
ried those qualities of mind which he
possesses into some other country, prob
ably into some other country without
restrictions on trade. lie would have
remained in the old country; he would
have built there what he built on this
side; he could have done so AT very
much less cost. Instead of employing
steadily about 1900 American citizens
he would be employing about IL, 900 sub
jects of Queen Victoria. In that ease
he would have been one of the wealthy
manufacturers of the Old World whom
the Democratic party would have de,
lighted to honor and would have de.
lighted to see rob the United States
The difference, then, is, that if a man
comes here and puts something in train
which every day Of the world supple,
employment to enough men to bring
them a daily revenue of $4,000, thai
man is public enemy; but if he only
remains at home and employs his owl
people, and unloads the goods oil
America for American gold, then he /,
one of the benefactors of the world, ant
the United States is not crippled b,
any trade relations through him. w,
honestly think that the abuse of Mr.
Carnegie in the American press--tha
is, a portion of it--during the last tw,
years has been an exhibition of a
mean a spirit as ever actuated tn,
human heart.

NEW DIPLOMATISTS.
EMINENT CITIZENS TO REPRESENT
UNCLE SAM ABROAD.

Our First Embassasior to Great Britain,
Unless You Count Those So Called In the
Revolutionary Era-NIinisters to Chill,
Peru and Central America.
1t is taken by common consent that
leading diplomatic positions are not sub
ject to any of the so called principles of
civil service reform, and that each adj
ministration should be represented at
foreign courts by leading members of its
own party. The American people there
fore warmly approved the appointment
of the eminent Thomas Francis Bayard
as first ambassador to Great Britain, and
the senate, according to the usage of
courtesy in case of one who has served
in that body, promptly and unanimously
confirmed the nomination without ref
erence to any committee.
Thomas F. Bayard was born in Will
mington Oct. 20. 1928, and was brought
up with view to engaging in mercantile
pursuits. While, however, he was in a
West India house in Philadelphia in
1S48, his elder brother, the lawyer, died,
and it was decided that Thomas should
enter that profession. Since 1851 he has
practiced law for the most part in Will

Democratic Advisers

Three gentlemen, an Independent, a
Democrat and Republican, respective
ly, advise the Democratic party how to
use the great opportunity before it. The
Independent is Hon. Seth Low, president
of Columbia college, New York, the
Democrat is Hon. Oswald Ottendorfer
and the Republican is Hon. Henry Cabot
Lodge.
Mr.. Low says that the election of
President Cleveland was victory for the
principles advocated by him; also for the
man himself, because voters had conf
dence that he would adhere to those
principles through thick and thin. Mr..
Cleveland was elected, in the estimation
of President Low, chiefly because he ia
vored tariff reform and civil service re-
form, and because he was opposed to ex-
travagant pension and other legislation
II now the Democratic party will go III
for tariff reform, if it will destroy the
spoils system and also break up the Dem
ocratic local party machine, then, in the
estimation of Mr.. Low, it will be the rul-
| ing party in this country for long time
Mr.. Oswald Ottendorfer is especially
concerned about the silver dollar. He
plants himself on the gold basis as on
the rock of his salvation, and says this
country is now dancing on volcano.
The volcano may, so to speak, erupt and
blow us into financial kingdom come at
any moment just so long as we continue
Ito dump the proceeds of silver mines
into the national treasury and issue
therefor treasury notes interchangeable
for gold or silver COIN" This practice
Mr.. Ottendorfer considers ON par with
the teaching that it requires only an
act of congress to make 60 cents worth
of silver equal to dollar in gold" One
gathers that Mr.. Ottendorfer is "gold-
bug" and considers the repeal of the
Sherman silver act of 1890 as the most
bowling duty of the Democratic party
and the Fifty-third congress.
Then there is Hon. Cabot Lodge. He
is by no means obscure as to what his
idea of the Democratic duty of the hour
is. 1t is to inaugurate free trade. "Un-
less the victorious party is false to the
plainest kind of pledge, they must sweep
protection from the statute books" He
declares the new system must have a
fair trial, and the party in power must
raise government revenues by methods
which can give no protection whatever.
Ii their system is successful, we will
stick to it. If it is failure, out the
voters of the country will whop the Dem
ocrats, and in will go the Republicans
again. thinks Mr.. Lodge.

FRUIT CULTURE

The West Coast Trade has the fol-
lowing article in its news columns con-
corning one of the coming great indus
tries of this state:
The culture Of fruit continues TO attract
much attention in various portions OF the
state, and the fact that the territory
which is susceptible to the growth of
various kinds in profitable quantities is
not confined to any particular locality
adds much to the prospective value OF
horticulture as one of the many profitable
sources of revenue for which Washington
is remarkable. Frsm the Centralia News
we learn that a large number OF fruit
trees have been planted within the past
two years around that city, and within
five years fruit will become the great eX-
port production of that section. The soil
and climate seem peculiarly adapted to
the growth of the Italian prune, which
ranks highest in the markets Dry houses
will be erected as soon as production Will
warrant, and raisers of prunes will find a
ready market at remunerative prices.
Pears also do well there, and much atten-
ton is being devoted to their cultivation.
They can also be shipped abroad
At Vaughn Bay, Pierce county, there is
growing interest in fruit culture which
has sprung up entirely since four years
ago, at which time but a few small or
chards comprised the whole acreage out
TO fruit, but their phenomenal success
induced the formation of horticultural
society, and the annual report of the pres
ident shows that seventy-four landown-
ers receiving mail matter at the Vaughn
Bay postoffice have set out nearly $500
fruit trees during the past season. Apples
took first place in the list, 4,927; prunes
second, 2,325; pears third, 1872, and cher
ries fourth, 669. Ounces, plums, apricots
and peaches brought the count up to the
figure stated In 1s9l-99, although the
census had been taken in an imperfect
manner by the society, it showed that the
total planting up to that time had gone
above 10000. lie believed that If little
more perseverance had been exercised the
result would have increased the total by
at least 5000. This estimate would war
rant the statement that within the
Vaughn Bay district they now have over
10000 trees set out.
In Whatcom county and on the
islands tributary to Fairhayen cOnsid
cradle attention is being paid to this
profitable and important industry, large
areas being cleared for the purpose Of
planting fruit trees. Those who have
looked into the subject state that the
soil and climate in this section are add
mirably adapted to the raising of fruit
belief which is receiving practical en-
dorsement in the large tracts of land
being devoted to fruit raising. The
Ease with which the fruit can bt
shipped from this point is one of tn,
advantages in favor of the development
of the industry.

Jerry Simpson has found it necessary
to publish an advertisement in the
newspapers of his district notifying his
constituents that he has no influence
with the administration in the distri-
button of offices, and has no fat situa-
tons whatever at his disposal. In fact,
all the solicitations addressed to the
sockless will be bootless.

ere the fatal years of army service that
had sapped his vigor and reduced him
to wreck. He said sadly that he had
been a whole week "a-paintin that there
stoop." He was not so old yet, he said;
would not be rs till February, and he
ought to be as lively as a cricket still.
He felt that he would have been indeed

health and made him an old man before

knocked him out:
