The Bounty.Grabber's Threat.

The delegation of Louisiana bounty
grabbers now in Washington are try
ing to coerce the Administration into
paying their bounty claims by threats
of Democratic revolt in their State.
They are reported to have told Secre-
tary Carlisle that If the bounty is not
paid nothing on earth could keep
Louisiana from going Republican.
If there is any Democratic virtue
left in Secretary Carlisle he will send
the delegation home with stern re-
buke. Their threat is an insult to a
Democratic administration 1t is a
proposition to disregard law and vio-
late Democratic principles 10 order to
purchase the support of few greedy
bounty grabbers who offer in return to
hold the votes of the State for the
party.
The proposition should put an end
to any more conferences between the
Secretary of the Treasury and the
Louisiana delegation. because they
would compromise the Administration
and discredit the Democracy. If
Louisiana cannot be held in the DEM
ocratic party except by grants OF boun-
ties 1t should go at once into the ranks
of Republican States. It belongs to
the Republican party. the policy OF
which is to buy support and keep its
followers in line by bounty grants.
This policy is Numerically opposed to
the principles OF the Democratic party.
But there is good reason to believe
that the bounty-grabbers are bluffing
the Administration and slandering the
Democrats of Louisiana. The mass of
Louisiana Democrats are true to Dem

The Picnic squadron.

The facts about the expense Of main-
tanning the Dolphin as an excursion
boat for the Secretary of the Navy
were recently stated in Washington
despatch to the Philadelphia Press.
Last year the expenditure by the Gov
ernment was $4,000 Nearly 500. :
900 OF this went to the officers and
crew. and about $14. 900 was spent in

Let Secretary Herbert, for whom the
Sun entertains sentiments of cordial

he sails eastward toward Bar Harbor
to discover whether it is fact that

Brazii and Trinidad.

The excitement caused in Rio Jan
eiro by the announcement that Eng
land has taken possession of the little
island of Trinidad. off the coast of Bra
| zil, can we'll be understood. 1t is ar
islet of no remarkable value, lying {
little east of the 30th meridian, and 9
little south of the goth parallel of south
latitude and being perhaps half doz
en- miles long and half as wide. Tt
Americans it is chiefly known of late
as the place of which Baron Harden
Hickey has announced himself to be
the sovereign, and for whose govern
ment he has prepared. at least on pa.
per and miniature, tolerably complete
monarchical outfit. When. however,
Great Britain recently assumed the
ownership of the island, its prospec.
tive fate took on very different light
for Brazil.
1t appears that not long ago an an
nouncement of the British Minister to
the Brazilian Minister of Foreign At
. fairs that Great Britain would occupy
Trinidad as landing place for an
ocean. was laid before the Congress at
Rio Janeiro. One Deputy Immediate
ly declared that Brazil would never
suffer the ..paws of the British lion" to
rest on Brazilian territory, and this
declaration excited great appause.
The same night an enormous mass
meeting was held in the city to protest
against Great Britain's action, and ii
lasted well into the morning. Caval-
ry had to patrol the streets to guard
the British consulate and the English
residents. and it appears that at Sac
Paulo the British Consul was hooted.
Not until report was circulated in
Brazil that Great Britain would not in
sist upon occupying the island did the
excitement at the capital subside, and
since then it has been renewed there
and elsewhere in the republic by It'd
ings that the British had not abandon
ed their claim.
What, with the French invasion OF
the Counani territory on the north and
| this threatened loss of an island to
John Bull, Brazil may we'll be troubled
| and anxious. As for England. she
seems to be making somewhat of a
speciality just now of claiming minor
islets as landing places for ocean ca.
bles, her attempts to get possession oi

being fresh in mind.
With regard to the merits of the
Trinidad affair, it is said that Great
Britain bases her claim partly on dis
covery, made nearly two centuries ago
by HALEY. and partly on recent oc-
cupancy by British subject. But
the situation of the island certainly
favors Brazil's claim. and to her the

is not one of the intrinsic worth of the
island, but of ownership. although she

for his bicycle from the east His companion continued his journey to San Francisco.
 Lovers of the curious and beautiful have lately become unusually appre- ciative of the truly wonderful Spans drawn work which now albounds in such profusion in this city, judging from the heavy sales recently re- ported by dealers Mrs A. M. Lee, the mill1ner, was the first merchant here shrewd enough to forsee the business advantages to be gained by introduc- ing this exquisite fancy work into a trade center like Phoenix, where there is every year large influx of eastern visitors, many of whom are heavy pur- chasers of drawn work. Mrs. Lee inn ports directly from the land of manana and her customers always have the as surance that their purchases are the genuine article. She is a liberal ad- vertiser both at home and in eastern papers and to the use of printers ink attributes much of her success in this line of trade, where once a customer, always a customer.

A SAMPLE LIE.
How Indian News Is Invented by \ Eastern Journals.

In The Herald of last evening is found the following item, alleged to have been clipped from the telegraphic columns of Detroit paper:
 PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec 7.-Sensa- fional reports continue to pour in from the Gila valley. The Apaches, infuri- ated by whisky and outrages perpe- tralted on Indian women by despera- does, are on the warpath. Nearly 100 settlers have been killed. The settlers are organizing for defense and hund- reds of soldiers are securing the coun- try for the redskins. The Apaches are poorly equipped for warfare and they have taken to the most impregnable ravines. In skirmish last night a company of white men was wiped out and four former residents of this place were killed in an ambush
 It is a safe bet of 100 to 1 that no such telegram as above noted was ever sent from Phoenix. The man who would do it would be both an unmiti- gated scoundrel and a maniac. There is not word of truth in it, and, fur ther, it never came from Phoenix or even Arizona.
