SEATTLE, TUESDAY, FEB. 4.
Ex-pREsrpESr HARRISON.

The announcement OF Benjamin Harrison
that heswili not again be a candidate for the
Office OF president Of the United States is
the most important political announce
ment 10 be made prior 10 the convention.
1t is manly. direct and unreserved. While
there are very many Republicans in this
country who hold Cen. Harrison In the
highest esteem. and many who would DO
glad To accept HIM az their standard bearer
again. the sentiment OF the great mass OF
the people will probably be found IN accord
with his expressed belief that the voters
are entitled to new name"
The announcement is manly because It
has In ii no mock modesty. The friends
OF Gen. Harrison had the right 10 know
his wishes. They were not called upon
10 hold themselves aloof from all other
alliances only to be told at the last mo-
ment that he would not be candidate.
when they had by their loyalty to him
sacrificed every hope OF political prefer
ment for themselves and other friends.
The position of president is one of great
honor. and the hope of succeeding to it is
tie handspring I'm the life OF the foremost
citizens. The hope Of attaining IL by
worthy means should be the beacon in
public life. and only the gravest emergen-
Giles such as led 10 tho reelection Of WASH
ington and Lincoln. when great deeds of
craftsmanship remained uncompleted,
should justify tho retention in that ex-
allied office of any man for more than ona
term.
This Is Republican doctrine-not Of
party. but Of the spirit Of our institutions.
Gen. Harrison VIII live In history a greater
man than II he had permitted himself 10
ba drawn into a partisan struggle with the
possibility of a defeat which. in such n
case. must have brought modification and
humiliation

THE SANITY TIMES s5,5sa. 5o,.

1T was distinctly charged in the Times

The present management OF the Post

referred TO. Perhaps the manager of the
Times 15, 5s35 0), who was for some years

Ger under its former ownership. knows all
about IL. He Is quite welcome so far as

The Seattle Times should. In Justice to

will hazard the declaration that no dis
honorable act can be charged against the
controlling influences in the former man
agement, and we challenge contradiction.

Origin Of the Loving Cup.

The best account of the origin Of the low
ing cup, says an article quoted in Current
Literature, comes from the late Lord
Lyons. British ambassador at Paris. Ac-
cording TO his narrative King Henry Of
Navarro twho was also Henry ". OF
France). while hurting became separated
from his companions. and feeling thirsty.
called at wayside inn for a cup of wine.
The serving maid on handing it 10 him as
he sat on horseback, neglected to present
the handle. Some wine was spilled over.
and his majesty's white gauntlets were
soiled- While riding home he bethought
him that two-handled cup would prevent
a recurrence of this, so his majesty had a
two-nandled cup made at the royal pottery
and sent II to the inn. On his next visit he
called again for wine. when to his aston
ishment. the maid (having received instruc-
tons from her mistress 10 be very careful
of the kings cup) presented it 10 him, hold
ing 1t herself by each of its handles. AT
once the happy idea struck the king of a
cup with three handles. which was prompt
ly acted upon. as his majesty quantity re-
marked: Surely out of three handles !
shall be able 10 get one." Hence the loving
cup.

THE HAMMER WARD.

An excellent idea has been suggested by
Chairman Mtten. of the Republican city

cred at a meeting Of representatives from
each ward club In conference with that
body. The plan. so far only outlined and
rough. is TO present a banner to the ward
registering and voting the greatest PER
eentage OF votes for the Republican can
didates at the coming election. as compared
with the vote cast for Doollt,le in 1894.
II is proposed that this banner shall be

teal gatherings so long as it retains posses

Article XXI. creates the office OF steam

Article XIII. extends the eight-hour
Law to all labor employed by contractors
having contracts with the city.
Article XIV. relating TO miscellaneous
subjects. is only changed SO as TO bring 1t
into harmony with the other parts of the
charter.
These are followed by an alternative
proposition as to the city acquiring or
constructing an electric lighting system.
and for the ownership by the city of cable
and electric railways.
While this synopsis does not attempt TO
set out all the proposed changes, it will
afford a fairly accurate idea of the law
to be submitted to the voters In March
next. Many OF the amendments are ad-
mirable. and the adoption of the new
charter as whole will do no harm. The
civil service business Is an experiment

is the doubtful point-nobody will have
any cause TO complain.
