REGISTER.

Every property owner and taxpayer
should register. The coming election on
the water question is one of the most i'm
portant that has ever been held In this
city, and those who will have 70 pay the
additional taxes in event Of the PROPOSE
ton carrying should not fail 10 vote on It.
Registration Is necessary. and no man is
doing his full duty as a citizen who neg
lects to have his name on Che rolls. II
large additional debt is saddled upon the
community, IL will be because the people
who have interests at stake are indiffer-
ent as to the result, and have failed to
exercise their rights as prudent citizens.

With the completion of the Siberian rail-
road the Russian government proposes 10
introduce a system OF passenger charges
which might probably be followed by
other countries. The principal Is that &C
count must be taken Of the amount or pa
tronage bestowed by the passenger ana

be the charge per mile. In this country a
man pays SO much per mile, whether he
travels fifty or 500 miles. but the Russian
system VIII allow discount proportionate
to the number Of miles purchased. This is
n accordance with fair business principles
and for long continuous passages might
be adopted with good results in the United

Senator Harris, in his letter to his free
silver colleagues, says that in view Of the
recent election results there is no hope for
Democratic success in 1896 without plain,
distinct declaration in favor OF free silver.
1t is not easy to see how the senator draws
this unique conclusion. In the only state
where the question was fought out on the
financial issue, that is to say, Kentucky,
the result was an overwhelming defeat OF
the free silver people. With free silver
platform. such as Senator Harris favors,
the rout for Democracy next year would
no doubt be as complete as it was in Ken
lucky last week.

The people OF Seattle Will extend hearty
welcome 20 Admiral Beardslee and the Off
GERS and men who accompany him In the
Philadelphia. While the ship Is in port
nothing must be left undone TO make the
visit an agreeable one. Every one from
the admiral down should feel that they
are at liberty TO own the town. and IL they
don't see what they want. ask for il.

The people on the edge OF the Adiron-
daek mountains in New York have a gold

With hops az the present figure they Will
probably make money. even II they don't
strike anything.
