SACRAMENTO MARKET.
Business Continues Good - Poultry
Scarce and Firm.

SACRAMENTO, Feb 27th.
Business continued GOOD to-day, and market
men seemed TO be well satisfied At the closing
hours with their days work. Farm receipts
were not up to expectations, all that came in
meeting with ready sale, excepting Quail,
which moved Off slowly.
Butter and Eggs continue in good supply,
and prices rule very weak.
Poultry, as a rule, is scarce. Just about
enough chickens come in to meet local de-
mands, while Tame DUCKS, for which there is
a lively inquiry, are hard 10 get. In fact, even
at the fancy price OF 50 per dozen, local deal
ers are unable to secure enough to fill orders.
Vegetables IN most lines are doing well, re-
ceipts being fully up to demands, excepting
Tor asparagus, which still remains scarce and
| nigh. However prospects are Frightening for
good supplies at cheap rates, if the weather
continues TO moderate ana heavy irosts do
not sci in. Cucumbcrs are also soon expected
to be OF sale in local circles.
Oranges OF good quality are now coming in
freely. IN TACT we are now right in the midst
OF the good season. About the only thing
! short ana for which the inquiry is large in
the fruit line is Lines, which Today were
very scarce and retailed at 20 cents per
! dozen, rather steep figure for this season of
the year.

The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1893-01-06

1nasmuch as Bennett and B-en,s have been
kind enough to inform us as to the details OF
THEFT treachery to the Republican party it is
time for Miles c. Moore to come to the 'front.'
This is free country, he should remember, in
which man is suffered to make as big fool OF
himself as he likes Tesod Globe
If the u.terances Of newspapers may be safely
taken as the expression of pubic sentiment,
Mr.. John b. Allea is undoubtedl tie popular
choice of the people OF the state for United
States senator. With the exception of very
small minority, the newspapers Of she entire
state are with him. The only two papers con-
spicuousiy opposed to him are thu Tacoma
Ledger and the Spokane Reriew.-PoYt Tomasend
Leader.
Not content with having bolted tie Repub-
lican state ticket, Bennett contributed money to
the Democratic campaign fund and sent funds
to Spokane to secure the defeat OF John H. Nc.
GraW anu John l. Wilson in particular. Now
he proposes to run for the United States senate
on Doodle platform. He counts on getting the
thlrty'seven combined votes Of the Democracy
and Peoples party. and in patching out the
necessary twenty votes for majority on joint
ballot depends on the efficiency of his money.
Vas ever such INSCRIPTIONS daring heard OF
before in the history OF American poisics9 Gaze

tism, takes himself as seriously a C2sarl-

BATTLE. FRYDAT. jan. q
WAsHINGTOS VS.. OREGON.

The senatorial contest in this state
seems to have narrowed itself into a con-
test between Oregon and Washington.
The question at issue is, whether WASH
ington is to conduct her own affairs, or
whether her actions must be submitted to
the approval of Oregon.
The Oregon influence, the Portland in
fuence which fears the commercial de-
velopment of Puget sound. the dominant
influences in Oregon which view with
alarm the political advancement of this
state, are arrayed in bitter hostility to
Senator Allen. They desire to defeat him
because he has refused to submit to dicta-
ton from their state, and has worked
manfuily and loyalty for the best interests
of Washington. At present their candi-
date is Judge Turner, whom they
have picked upon as the most avail
ahle man. In reality, however, they
do not care much about candidates
80 long as they are able to defeat Senator
Allen. Any one of their allies in this
state would suit them for senator, and
to that one who seems TO offer them the
best chance of success.
Those who believe that Washington
should be independent of Oregon infiu-
ences, who believe that this state is able to
take care OF its own interests without out
side interference, should unite in de-
handing the reelection of Senator Allen.

Swindling Advertisements.
Mount Vernon Post


Many country papers in Washington are now
publishing a big, fashy advertisement for .
concern that upon its face bears the imprint OF
rank swindle. The Anacor,ss American, the
Sedro Prcss. the Edison Phonogrdph and the se-
attic Telegraph are among the papers which are
aiding the swiudling company TO carry on iis
netarious business in this county. Over and
over again have the projectors OF these swindles
been exposed in the newspapers. but again and
again they bob up, and, strange TO say, IND
ready accomplices and dupes TO help them In
the shape OF newspapers ell over the country.
The scheme that these newspapers are now ad-
vertising 10 80 plainly fraudulent one that the
Post predicts its exposure within
short time It is only q few months
since C. A. Cochrane got out OF the
United stotes penitentiaIy IN this state for
practicing exactly the same tricks that this new
concern are evidently praetieing. You are
asked 10 guess picture puzzie-a puzzle so
easy that 4-year-old child could readily solve
It After you have guessed this puzzle you are
TO send the answer to some obscure and uncer-
tain medicine company. II your answer is the
hrst correct one the company receives (the
company" will probably get $4,000 answers),
then you are toget span OF shetland ponies, q
grand piano, house and lot, or something. II
your answer is the last they get, then you are TO
have something equally valuable, with sur
pristng array OF other prizes Tor your answer il
1t comes in second from the first, or next TO the
last, or some place else in the order. With your
guess you are 10 send q sum OF money, for which
you are told as blind, that you Will receive
sample bottle of Medicine. To throw the
unsuspecting further of the track you are
informed that the prizes are given merely
to advertise their medicines, and ''if you have
guessed Ill any OF their former competitions you
are not to try this, etc., etc. This last piece OF
information is one which is not needed by the
thousands upon thousands of people who, rely
ing upon the papers in which the advertise
ments appear, send their money TO the snids
concerns, never 90 hear from it again. There is
United states statute which, il enforced,
would punish tie papers which publish such
Advertisements. They are more TO blame than
the swindiing concerns themselves, for they In
variabiy are swindled out OF their advertising
space and get nothing in the end except regret
at having been taken in. But the plea OF ig-
norance IN this case should not be heard by the
authorities. A Inonstrons swindie is being per-
petrated upon tha people, and the officers OF the
law should put stop to it.

SENATOR AND HIS PARTY.

Senator John r. Kinnear who is. now
standing side by side with Miles G. Moore,
II. W. Fairweather. Nelson Bennett and
other enemies of the city and county in
which he lives, in opposition to the re-
election of Senator Allen, owes much to
the Republican party Of King county. 1t
has treated him in a manner which de-
served a better return.
When Mr.. Kinnear was a comparative
stranger in King county, having been a
resident of the state but little over one
year, he was nominated by the Repub-
licans for member of the lower house of
the territorial legislature, and was elected
by large majority. Four years later he
was nominated for the upper house of the
territorial legislature, and was again
elected. Less than year afterwards he
was elected by the Republicans q men,
Der of the constitutional convention His
service in this body was barely over
when he was made the candidate of the
Republican party of King county for the
high Office of governor and was sup
ported by the delegation from this county
"aNH Si SaA ASSAiSos dtAN toShlty WHICH
could not be excelled. Failing of the
nomination for governor he was nomi-
mated for the state senate and was elected
One year later he was reelected to the
state senate, and this term he is now
serving.
Certainly Mr.. kinnear has been well
treated by the Republicans Of King county,
and they have the right 10 expect him TO
defer 10 their wishes in so important
matter as the election OF a United States
senator. He cannot be ignorant Of those
wishes. They have been expressed by the
Republicans Of the county, and by the
Republicans OF his owa district, by the
adoption of resolutions against which
there was absolutely no opposition. Sena-
tor kinnear knows absolutely that the
Republicans of his district are earnestly.
enthusiastically and unanimously in favor
OF the reelection OF Senator Allen, and he
knows that # he should vote against Mr..
Alien rs Bennett, Moore and Fairweather
would have him vote he Will be betraying
his constituents and voting against their
interests, as we'll AS against the best inter
ests Of the state.
If Senator klnnear fails 10 think Of these
things he Will show in u manner not to he
misunderstood his entire unntness for
pubic trust.

Everett News


The Neps has tried in vain TO trace to its
source the rumor that a combination of Seattle
business men had threatened to boycott the
Pacific Steamship Company's vessels II they
touched at Everett to deliver or receive freight
The rumor itself carries internal evidence OF its
unreliability. the most glazing Of which Is the
statement that this company was about to or
der the Michigan to make regular trips
to this port and was deferred by this threatened
boycott. November - the NsVs published
al interview with Mr. 3. J. Rucker, ii
which he is quoted as saying that the
Everett Terminal Company was negotiating
with the Derrick Steamship Com any TO put on
a line of vessels between Sau Francisco and
Everett, and that the steamer Michigan would
be operated by that line. ii she has passed into
the hands OF other owners the fact has not been
recorded. c. II. kittinger says he has talked
with Mr.. Johnson, agent of the Pacific company.
and he denies that any business Interest of
Seattle ever approached him in any manner
upon the subject. The Seattle Chamber of Com
merce has officially denied the rumor.

willing to furnish the information required
for purging the pension list OF al fraudu-
lent or unworthy claimants. and he con-
cludes his very vigorous letter as follows:
The rule OF pensions should be 10 pay as
much as the country can afford to those who
made sacrifices IN the war; nothing to those
who made no such sacrifices, nor 20 fraud.
The present system degrades patriotism TO
oeggars level
Gen. Gibbon is right, eternaily right.
The true soldiers who fought tie battles
of the civil war do not desire 10 receive
from the government pensions to which
they are not entitled either b. poverty,
disability or any other consideration. II
is high time the G. A. r. formally declared
that only those soldiers who are incapaci-
tated. in consequence OF service per-
formed during the war, from earning q
livelihood should be pensioned; that
while the families of all those who fell
in the war or have since died In
consequence of disease incurred or wounds
received during that time, shall be
assisted by the government, no PEN
sions should be paid to those who are
amply able to support themselves and
their families. By such formal deciara-
ton the G. A. r. should maintain its pres
ent high place in public esteem; it should
use its influence for the correction of the
gross abuses that have grown up under
loosely framed extravagant pension bills
that were drawn by cormorant claim
agents and urged to hasty enactment by
blatant, bomb-proof soldier dernagogues.
