Democracy Losing its Grip.

The Seattle Telegraph, organ of
the democracy, and the only morning
paper OF that party in the state, sue
cumbed to the inevitable last Satur-
day, having been purchased by the
Post Intelligencer. There was no
field for two such excellent news
papers, as the morning dailies of Seat
tie, and the weaker must succumb,
after costing its various owners thous-
ands. of dollars, in a vain attempt to
place the Telegraph on a self-support-
ing basis. The Post Intelligencer is
the old established and leading paper
IN the state, and under able manage
ment covered the field fully. With
this change it receives the type-setting
machines, and good will of the
Telegraph, and will be q better news
paper than ever.
We are glad to note this change, for
it assures Seattle Il daily paper which
viii rank with those of any city in
the country, having several times the
population of the Queen City.

to be our next Auditor.
THE schooner Beebe, lumber laden
from Port Blakely to San Fran

week, and drifted on the ocean beach.
Her crew of eight were saved by the
rope-baslet, after several hours cling

FROM the state OF Washington there
were shipped during October 1871
05G feet of lumber, 300, 260 laths and
100000 pickets by water to foreign
ports. Coast-wise shipments were H.
551,603 feet OF lumber, 4,l05, $50

THE Post Intelligencer, with its Gus
tOmary enterprise, has organized an
exploring party, to examine the peak
of Mt. Rainier, and see if the recent
alleged disturbances lett any effects.
The party will OF course, plant a Rainier
banner on the mountain and settle
the title question, the weather permit
ting.
Lawrence +. DOYLE secured his in
dependent congressional nomination
by petition bearing the names of 1O2
voters in Clallam county. The official
canvass shows that Mr.. Doyle received
but 1913 votes throughout the state,
eight OF which were from his friends
and admirers in Clallam county

from dealers on account OF poor quail

tivating, spraying and handling the
fruit, which viii come with experience

soon be unnecessary.

The Official State Count.

The official canvass of the returns
of the recent election was completed
December 7, the result showing that
33 counties cast IA ,515 votes for con-
gresham. Snohomish county re-
turns are still in contest and have not
been received by the secretary, but ON
the basis of 1000 votes cast by thai
county for governor in 1892, the total
vote cast in this state last month may
be placed at rs, 100, as compared with
89,S97 cast for governor in 1892.
The vote Oh the various tickets
stood:
Congress-Doolittle, rep, 34,S12;
Hyde, rep, 1890; Hueston, dem, A.
100; Cation, dem, IA, 0S2; Adams, pop,

The vote on the constitutional
amendment was II ,065 for and 5,151
against, but the result cut no figure
one way or the other. The law origi-
nally provided that the permanent
school fund could be invested in state.
national, county or municipal bonds,
and the Legislature provided that the
people should vote upon an amend
ment to the constitution permitting
the investment of the fund in school
district bonds. Before the election
rolled around, the supreme court had
occasion to pass upon the matter and
held that school district bonds were
municipal bonds, so that authority for
investing the permanent school fund
In them already existed before the
amendment was submitted to the peo-
PIE.
By way of comparison, with the
vote OF 1892, emitting the vote of Sno
homlsh county, Doolittle, the highest
on the republican ticket this year re-
ceived 1882, as compared with 33 ,2S1
cast for Governor McGraw two wears
ago. Adams the highest on the popu-
list ticket this year received 24,9S3
votes as compared with 23,75O votes
cast Tor Young, populist candidate for
governor IN 1892, and Hueston the
highest on the democratic this wear
received 14,160 votes as compared
with $4,000 votes cast for Snivelv
democratic candidate for governor in
1892.

A Sensible Suggestion.

There is one thing we would like to
call the attention of farmers and
others to, and that is the practice of
sending east to the large firms there
doing mail order business for your
goods. We contend, and do it in all
friendliness, that you are doing the
merchant in your town and yourself
an injustice by so doing, of course
you may get your goods few cents
cheaper by sending to the eastern deal
ers. But suppose the merchant here
tells you to ship your produce to the
east, what could you do with such pro-
ducts as were perishable, and would
not stand shipping such long distances.
And we think yo- wiz Ggrea with Is,
that ne merchant IS an important
factor in the building up of country
You probably will say yes, but if
the merchant does not keep the goods
we want we must send east or to the
large cities for them, that is true but
there are great many people send off
for goods that the local merchant
keeps always on hand, and the more
you patronize him the better stock he
can afford to keep, and the more of
your products he can handle.
Once let it be known that neigh
borhood is doing all it can for the local
merchants and giving them the pre-
ference and there will be plenty of
men to keep the goods you want. But
it is not at all encouraging to the
merchant to see his patrons when they
have the money, to buy bill of goods
send to the eastern house to buy then,
when lac could have sold like amount
for the same money, especially when
has been taking their butter, eggs. etc
and paying good round price fer
them. By all means patronize home
institutions, home markets, and there
by benefit all parties cencerned.-Ket-
tie Falls Pioneer.

week Tor shipment to Japan on the

Shipment aggregates 10000 cases.
Ihree cars were loaded with milk and
the other seven with meat from the
Armour packing houses. The provis-
IONS are supposed to be for the use of
the japanese army as Mr.. Norris, the
japanese agent of a syndicate of Chi
cago merchants, about six weeks ago
secured a large order for meat products
OF this kind, consisting chiefly of corn
ed beef, from the imperial government

The Official Returns.

A review of the official figures of
the recent state election shows these
facts: The Republicans carried
twenty-eight counties-Asotin, Che
halls, Clallam, Clarke, Columbia, Cow
lltz, Douglas, Island, Jefferson, King,
Kitsap, Kittitas. Klickitat, Lewis,
Mason, Okanogan, Pacific, Pierce, San
Juan, Skagit, Skamania, Snohomish
Spokane, Thurston. Wahkiakum,
Walla Waila, Whatcom, Yakima.
The Populists carried six counties
Adams, Franklin, Garfield, Lincoln,
Stevens, Whitman. The Democrats
did not carry single county, and
were third in every county except
Jeffemon, Klickitat, Mason, Okanogon,
Pacific, Skaman;a, Wahkiakum and
Walla Walla.
The banner Republican county of
the state is, as it has always been.
King, with 2,132 plurality. The ban
ner Populisteounty is Stevens, with a
235 plurality
But for the obscuring of the true
issue of the tariff by the Republicans
OF Eastern Washington, every county
might have gone Republican. The
banner Republican county of Eastern
Washington is klickitat, with All
plurality. King county had the lar
gest vote, being nearly one-sixth of
the total vote Of Tie state, while
Franklin cast the smallest.-P.I

movement for the organization of a

pose of securing the free coinage of
silver at 16 to 1, was discouraged on
the ground that party with so mar

A Years Smuggling Record.

Tacoma, Dec. 6.-Not the least in
teresting par. of the annual report OF
J. J. Crowley, supervising special
agent of the treasury department, is
the following paragraph concerning
what was not very long ago leading
local industry. Mr.. Crowley says:
"In the latter part of the preceding
fiscal year an investigation of the al
legged methods of smuggling Chinese
and opium was begun by officers OF
this division in the states of Oregon
and Washington. This work was con-
tinued with the result that special
grand jury was called at Portland,
Or, July 10, 1898, and on July 10
following indictments were found
against q persons, including an ex-
collector of customs and former offi-
Ger of this force. In October, 1873,
another grand jury found additional
indictments, making total OF about
40 persons charged with conspiracy to
illegally import Chinese laborers and
prepared opium. The extent OF the
fraud discovered was so great that 1T
was deemed wise to employ special
counsel to assist the United States
ATTORNEY, and at the trials it was es-
tablished that over 1900 Chinese labor
ers and 10000 pounds of opium had
been struggled into Portland from
British Columbia in period of less
than II months. Seven of the lead
ing smugglers pleaded guilty and three
others were convicted. Two of the
latter have appealed their cases to the
United States supreme court. The
proprietors of steamship company
were among the number, as we'll as an
ex-special agent. A decree of forfeit
ure in the case of the steamship Hay
tan Republic was entered and it has
since been sold by the United States
marshal. The action of the officers of
this division has been approved by the
subsequent judgment Of the grand
jury, trial jurors, and by the court,
which has refused new trials in each
case where conviction was secured. !"
Upon the subject of Chinese exclu-
sion the report says:
at is common practice among the
Chinese laundrymen who desire to re-
turn to China to invest 500, some
times less, in merchandise business
and by this means lay claim to being
merchants. The treaty lately entered
into between the United States and
China will increase the work of spe-
cial agents and it is certain that the
number of applicants will exceed that
of any year since the passage of the
first exclusion act, in 1882"
Chinese to the number of appli-
ton to be allowed to land in the
United States in the past year, $500
being admitted and 1241 rejected
1859 Chinese passed through the
United States in transit, of which
number six escaped from the officers
who had them in custody.
