No more scathing arrangement of the
methods of republican officials has ever
been drawn by a republican than that
which is contained in the official report
of the investigation of the weather
bureau, which has been made to Secre-
tarY Morton by Assistant Attorney
General Colby who conducted the in
vestigation. The report finds that the
charges of official abuses, favoritism
and entire absence of business methods
in the bureau were fully sustained by
the evidence, and concludes by quoting
significantly the expense of the bureau
during the last year it was under mill
tary control-$610, 606-and the amount
appropriated for the next fiscal year
1851, 100. Secretary Morton will bring
the matter to the attention of the presi-
dent before taking action.
=Ex-SEcRErARY FA1RcH1LD, to whom
Secretary Carlisle recommended the
Cherokee delegation which went to
New York this week to place the &c.
900, 900 in bonds based upon the de-
ferred payments from the government
for the "Cherokee outlet" did a good
turn for the Indians when he advised
the delegation not to follow the original
intention of negotiating the bonds in
Wall street, but instead to advertise for
bids for the entire amount of bonds,
and the members of the delegation
showed their shrewd business sense by
recognizing at once the value of the ad-
vice and accepting it. AS the bonds
will pay four per cent interest, which is
more than the government has paid on
its bonds for years, and are practically
guaranteed, principal and interest, by
the government, Secretary Carlisle hav-
ing agreed to sign a statement to that
effect printed across the face of each
bond, it is expected that the bidding
will be lively and that the bonds will be
sold for enough above par to pay all the
costs. That's the way democrats show
their friendliness for the. Indians.

1t will not be many years longer be-
fore Bellingham Bay, with its sur
rounding islands, has not only ma
tional, but a world wide reputation
among the tourists and pleasure seek
ers of the two hemispheres. With re-
spect to its natural scenery it would be
a difficult matter to find a more en-
trancing spot even along the shores of
the far-famed Mediterranean. Speak
ing of the general beauty of the state of
Washington, the Seattle Telegraph
says; "There can hardly be anything
finer in the world than the view from
the hills behind Fairhaven." The
abundance of game of various kinds in
the neighboring mountains, with trout
fishing in the lakes and streams of
Whatcom county, combined with the
enjoyment of yachting around the
shores of the Bay and among the
islands will prove an attraction which
needs only to become known among
seekers after pleasure to induce the
coming of a large number of tourists
during the summer season. In addi-
ton to this, Bellingham Bay is a nat
ural sanitarium, and will some day be
eagerly sought by those in search of
health and renewal of youth. Its
equable climate and pure fresh air
to make it health resort.
than which no better can be found, SO
that while the investor and home
seeker will come to find here the ne
plus ultra of all human ambition along
heir lines, both the pleasure seeker
and invalid will also come, the one to
ind all that could be desired in the
way of sport and enjoyment, and the
other to recover sound health and ad- |
iitional years to his lite.

Reminding an Absentminded Man.

There is business man in Omaha who
is SO absentminded that he would leave
his head at the Office were it not for the
fact that it is fastened on beyond his
power to remove it. A few days ago he
invited friend to take dinner with him
on the following day, and upon the ac
ceptance of the invitation seized his pen
and began writing, remarking that he
would have to write to his wife and tell
her about it. The friend was puzzled
and asked an explanation. "Oh, l al
ways write to my wife Immediately after
invite friend to my house." said the
absentminded man. "You see, if l wait
ed until reached home, it is 900 to /
that would forget it, and then when
took the friend up there would be large
cloud on the political horizon"
The next day the friend asked the wife
of the absentminded man about it, and
she confirmed her husbands statement,
adding further, that she never told her
husband what to purchase for the house.
She mailed letter to him at his Office
address, and as soon as he received it he
would step to the telephone and order
the necessary supplies In this way the
family larder was always well supplied.
1t is plan that other wives might EN-.
ploy to good advantage. Omaha World

Trunk line starts in revenge its great
steamship line from Portland to Liver
pool. we shall have some Of the liveliest
competition even this continent has ever

to Liverpool is 297 miles shorter than
from Portland to Liverpool, but the land

459 miles shorter than the railway trip

in taking its point of departure from

An ADDITIONAL JUDGE

The legislative reports show that
Senator Richards has introduced bill
in the senate and Representative Sher.
man the same bill in the House, pro-
viding for an additional judge in What
com county. 1t was announced that
Sherman introduced the bill by request
which perhaps indicates that he is moi
In favor of the measure. Doubtless the
wishes of the people of this county
would be respected in the matter if the
representatives could be thoroughly
advised as to what those wishes are
There are two reasons why this meas.
ure should not prevail at the present
time. First, there is no necessity for
it; and secondly, it imposes too great
a tax on the county, to be borne for
such luxury. 1t is true that there
are large number of cases on the court
calendar at the present time, but it is
not true that of those cases a greater
number are ready for trial than can be
disposed of at the coming term. 1t is
not true that there has been any great
complaint concerning the delay of cases
even at the last term at which was
pending larger number of cases than
ever before, chiefly because there was
added to the usual business something
over six hundred tax cases, all of which
we've disposed Of; and at the coming
term it can be shown that every case
ready for trial can be tried. There is
almost nothing for another judge to do.
Are the people ready to buy or build
or rent another court room? This they
must do If they have another court, for
there Is not now a vacant room in the
court house. There must be an addi-
tonal set Of records; and these cost
money. There must be an additional
clerk, whose salary will amount to con-
sidera bic. The court cannot be held
without baliff; he is also expensive.
Additional jurors will be required,
and they draw per diem and mileage.
Furniture and fixtures, janltor and fuel
will be demanded, money for every
thing. That two courts will cost twice
as much as one is fact so apparent
that no amount Of argument can add
to its clearness. All admit that courts
are necessary, but all know that the
support of the courts is by far the larg-
est item Of necessity for taxation that
exists in any county. All things con-
sidered, it is perhaps not an over esti-
mate to say that when cases are being
tried by jury the expense is on an aver
age above two hundred dollars a day.
Can the people afford to double this
sum? Can the representatives afford to
impose this burden upon the county?

be paid off, but the fact that the unem-
ployed are finding work for which
wages will soon begin to flow in is
encouraging to the laboring classes and
will soon have a satisfactory influence
upon the merchants. There is an
of strong belief among
the business men generally that the
season is beginning to open with graf
flying prospects.

Certainly times are Frightening on
Beliingham Bay, and when the
men who are now finding en-
ployment receive their first months
salaries and begin to pay off
the little debts hanging over them,
perceptible loosening of the local
money market will be felt. The Corn.
wall mill has been receiving large
orders of late, which will keep it at its
fullest capacity for long time to come,
the lumber market showing better
indications than at any previous time
within the past two years. The shingle
mills of the Bay and county are all
getting under full Roadway for the
spring trade, and will soon have an
aggregate pay roll of thousands of dol.
lars per day. The Eairhaven and Blue
Canyon mines are both putting out
larger shipments Of coal, while local
improvements in both cities will doubt
less be on the increase within a short
period. Logging camps are starting
up again all over the county, aud sales
of real estate are daily improving, as
may be seen by reference to the trans.
fers published in the local columns of
the HERALD. In the meantime ar
rangements for railroad construction
are going on as rapidly as circum-
stances will allow. At least month
will pass before the pay rolls of the
different mills and factories begin to
