CAMPAIGN SUBSCRIPTION RATES.

From now until after the election THE
HERALD will make a special club rate Of
Csc. The object OF this low rate is that
every voter may have an opportunity to
become better posted as to the campaign
and candidates, and also that we may
make the acquaintance Of many new
readers. Every Democratic subscriber,
every Democratic committeeman especi-
ally, should make an effort to place this,
the only Democratic paper in the county,
in the hands OF every Democratic OF
doubtful voter in his neighborhood. Get
up club, or send csc for each name and
send the paper to as many Of your neigh
bors as you can, and thus help the Dem
ocratic party in its fight for the right.

Quarter Deck and Gangway.

Quarter deck originated from the ar
rangement that the portion Of the deck
so called was about one-fourth Of the
whole space. Fore or forward castle
received its name as being the principal
part of the ship in which the fighting
took place, being raised much above tho
level of the other part Of the deck and
holding commanding position. Poop,
the raised afterpart Of the ship, set apart
for officers, both in meaning and deri-
VatiUi, OUiiics iiUIII IIc AulIn.
Gangway has been handed down from
the days Of the ancient galleys of the
Phpnicians, Carthagenians and Ro.
mans. it having been board which
ran along the whole length, serving as
a passage for the rowers to and from
their seats. 1t was also utilized as a
resting place for the mast and sail
when not in use. The term now denotes
place of exit or entrance from or to a
vessel, generally from the shore, by
means Of long plank or platform. -

OUR FOREIGN LUMBER TRADE

The editor Of the Bulletin must have
been suffering from severe attack of
billiousness last week, else he would not
have taken such an unreasonable and UNI
patriotic view of the foreign lumber trade.
We do not wish to accuse him Of being a
mossback or traitor to the community
in which he lives, so lay it all to his liver.
The one thing that will build up Grays
harbor is the development OF her immense
timber area. When his liver is in good
working order the editor OF the Bulletin
knows as we'll as any one that the bulk OF
this timber must 60 out OF the habor
by water and not by rail, for the reason
that the community is nearly self-support-
ing, and forty-nine cars out OF fifty which
20 out lumber laden come in empty, and
that on this account the railroads are not
seeking rail shipments. This also ac-
counts for the difficulty in securing what
cars we do get.
If, then, the bulk OF the lumber must
60 out by water, where shall it so if not
to foreign ports? Shall we be content
with what little we can get Of the San
Francisco trade, and remain a two.penny
the markets Of the world with our lumber
and grow into great commercial center
We chose the latter, and ask the cooper
alton OF all whose vision is not effected by
diseased liver OF distorted by blind
following OF political teachings.
Railroads in these days OF competition
can only afford to haul limited number
OF empty cars, but as long as the sea is
free, and tho wind blows to spread their
sails, ships can come to this port in bal.
last and take away our lumber But the
law Of trade is law Of exchange, and
the ships even will not always come in
ballast, but will bring the hides Of South
America to meet our hemlock and be
made into leather and then into shoes
the wool Of Australia to mix with ours in
the manufacture OF woolens and the raw
materials from other nations which we
must have to carry on diversified indus.
tries, for this is naturally manufacturing
as we'll as commercial port, and its great
ness depends upon the extent to which
its foreign trade can be developed

Fusion Out Of the Question.

A Spokane paper gives currency to an
absurd rumor that Mr.. Hugh Wallace
has been endeavoring to create sentl-
ment in eastern Washington favorable to
a fusion between Democrats and Poru-
lists. The alleged plan was that the DEM
ocrats should support the Populist county
nominees and the Populists support DEM
ocratic candidates for the legislature;
that in the legislature Democrats should
give Mr.. Wallace complimentary vote
for senator and then swing over to Nelson
Bennett.
All this is bosh. OF course Mr.. Wallace
never proposed or favored any such alb
surl program. To suppose him capable
OF doing so is to suppose that he is not
the level-headed, consistent Democrat he
is we'll known to be.
There vas time, not SO long ago,
when fusion might have been possible
under certain circumstances. Had the
Populists been willing to abate some OF
their demands, to put aside even tenn
porariv their crude theories OF paternal-
ism and finance, fusion nigh. have
seemed desirable in order to defeat the
party of prescription and oppression.
But recent events have changed the
situation. The Coxev movement and
the sympathetic strike were direct out
growths OF Populism. They were essen
tally political movements. They were
inspired and egged on by Populist leaders
who, careful to keep themselves out OF
danger, are anxious to incite workingmen
to acts of violence and disorder, so that
discomfort and unrest may be increased
throughout the country. The Porulist
party has OF late been put distinctly in
the position Of fomenter of revolution
and rebellion.
With movement thus placed genuine
Democrats cannot affiliate. There car
be no fusion. The Democracy will fgh
on it's own safe, conservative lines, vii
or lose. Mr.. Wallace has undoubtedl.
been libeled by the Spokane paper, an'
has good ground for an action against it
