rnE PLATFORM AND TUE TICKET.

For the Posr-IsTELiIGEscyR to profess
satisfaction with the financial plank
adopted by the Republican state conven-
isfed. IL feels that the plank Is wrong in
principle and that 1t favors system OF
finance altogether unsound.
1t does not follow, however. that because
tie expression Of the Republican party of
this state on this subject Is not precisely
what might be desired. IL is not the duty
OF Republicans 10 give the ticket which
It's party has presented a loyal, hearty
and earnest support To the Re-
publican party alone can We lock
for sound financial legislation and
an intelligent effort 20 solve the prob
lens which forcs themselves upon the
thinking minds, not of the United States
alone. bat of the world. Not from the
Democrats. and certainly not from the
popuiisls. can be expected legislation
which will restore business confidence and
maintain the financial credit of the nation.
From the Republican party alone can such
legislation be expected. aud it is accord
,ngiy the duty OF all citizens who believe
in maintaining the credit OF the nation TO
give their support 10 Republican esnai-
dates.
There is another potent reason why Ro-
publIoans should unite In an earnest sup
port of their ticket at the approaching
election. Is is possible that the next
presidency Will be thrown into the house
Of representatives. Ia thas esss the
president will be chosen by the members

Lack OF Discipline In the Militia.

lis very evident that the Washington
National Guard is sadly in need of disci-
pline from top to bottom. Officers high in
command have set the example of con-
tempt for authority and disrespect for
their superiors in rank, and it is not at ell
surprising that the ranks should re-
spond with mutinous conduct when
ever the lines of duty and inclination
cease to run on harmonious parallels. 1t
is unfortunate that the m Hilary service
has so slight personal hold upon those
who enter IL, and that the performance OK
duty cannot be made compulsory, save
when under actual orders for service, and
that dishonorabis discharge is the
extreme punishment mulinous
and unfaithfui soldier can receive.
In some communities, where the
organization is more highly regarded than
it IS here, dishonorable discharge from
the National Guard is followed by social
and almost business ostracism. Here il is
considered almost too lightly. Yet even
this slight punishment, If properly ham
died, may be made effective IN maintain
ing high morale in the National
Guard. But the enforcement of dis
cipline should begin at the top. Un-
disciplined commands. Prompt obe-
dience and performance of duty and
proper courtesy and respect at all times 20
superiors in rank are necessary to render
any body of troops worth the cost of its
maintenance, and the necessity for this
increases with the rank. The National
Guard of Washington needs an infusion
OF the true military spirit, and il should
receive it first at the top.

Tae Engineer Fooled the Vic ed Boulder

vancouver W ortd. september -.
The c. p. Il. train from this city, due to
arrive at Winnipeg at ii is last Saturday,
did not reach there until 1880 at night
The delay occurred near Agassiz. A boul-
der about FIVE feet in diameter fell from the
mountain side just as the train came into
view around a curve. The engineer re-
versed his engine at once, and the boul-
der being struck fair the train rems Inc on
the rails, though the track was torn up
nearly train length. The boulder was
showed along in front of the engine until
the train came TO n standstill. The front
trucks of the engine were broken and the
front of the locomotive thrown off the
track, but the rest OF the train remained
on the rails. The road at this point winds
around the mountain side and there was a
clear drop of thirty feet down the embank-
ment to the river side. Had the locomo-
tive struck the outer side of the rock, in
stead of striking il fair, the whole train
would undoubtedly have rolled over the
embankmenL 1t was eight hours before
the damage could be repaired and traific
renewed

Tariff Conferees Win Agree
or Disagree.
Mr.. SMITHS ULTlMATUM
Dictates the Duty to be Placed
on Sugar.
1T MAY BE A DISAGREEMENT.
Representative ninir Of New uamp-
shire Introduces Resolution In
the House TO Inquire Into the
Lynchins of southern Negroes.
Proceedings IN the senate.

Washington, Aug. 3.--The under
standing among the tariff conferees
when they adjourned late this after
noon was that the session tomorrow
should bring either an agreement on
the sugar schedule or decision TO
report a disagreement. Today was de-
voted by the conference to discussion
Of the sugar question. This schedule
In detail provides for u duty OF 40 per
cent nd valorem on sugar below 10
Dutch standard and 10 per cent on
sugar above this grade, the duty on
the refined sugar to be collected ON the
basis Of the saccharlne strength OF the
raw sugar used in 1t with 10 OF a cent
dlnerenual on the refined and dis
eliminating duty equal to the export
duty levied by such sugar producing
countries as pay u bounty on sugar
production. This schcduie WAS tub
mitted TO the conference as the ulu-
matum OF the conservative senators.
coming through Senator Smith OF New
Jersey, and the house conferees were
given TO understand that the schedule
was the nearest approach TO the re-
qulrements that the senate could with
any assurance say that the bill would
pass In the senate Some Of the con-
ferees are favorably inclined towards
the schedule, because they believe thut
II defines exactly the extra duty Ia be
paid on refined sugars and II IRE from
the objection urged against the senate
schedule that owing to the wording
OF the schedule It was impossible 10
tell beyond the onc-eighth of cent
differontial what the duty would be on
the refined article. They are of the
opinion that the duty IA the schedule
presented today will be confined TO the
one-6fth OF cent differential II N
understood. however. that While IN
clined to accept thes figures as the best
they can get and while considering
that In this they secure an advantage
over the senate schedule, they indl-
Gated desire TO consider the question
over night, and that IL was on this
account that the decision which 81 was
hoped would be reached today would
be postponed until tomorrow. re-
port received from an inside source
is to the effect that some OF the house
conferees found this schedule objection-
able from several points OF view and
when the time for adjournment was
reached had only failed to Indicate
willingness TO accept the schedule, but
had said that so far as they have been
able TO master Its details they con-
sldered unacceptable. II was this ex-
preston OF opinion on their part which
left the situation In such doubt when
the conference adjourned and rend sred
IT possible that instead of an agree
