A Place for Chinese.

1t has long been recognised as
a truth of commercial economics
that there is a right place for
everything. Sir William Maxwell,
Governor of the Gold Coast Colo
ny, thinks that one of the right
places for Chinese labor is that
particular section of the British
Empire over whose destinies he
presides. Further than this, Sir
William is determined to put his
views upon the matter to practical
experiment, and will submit a
scheme arranging for the intro
duction of Eastern labor into the
colony. The benefit which such
an influx of population would
have upon the future of the Gold
Coast is generally admitted.
Negro labor is peculiarly unreli-
able and (what is, perhaps, equal
ly detrimental to its utility unin-
telligent. European labor, except,
VI CouIoe, III u 5upol NiSoiy oOhSS)
is altogether out of the question;
so that it would appear as if the
only solution of the Gold Coast
labor problem is to be found in
The Chinese or East Indian coolie.
The latter have already played an
important part in the development
of British Guiana, and the condi.
tions obtaining in the two colonies
are by no means so diverse as
might be inferred from the dis
lance between them. Both climates
are humid and tropical, and both
countries are remarkably fertile
and by no means lacking in min
eral wealth. In British Guiana
the Eastern coolie has done good
work, both on the sugar plantations
and as a mining laborer, and he,
with his Chinese confrere should,
it is fair to assume, prove equally
successful on the Gold Coast
Liverpool Shipping Telegraph.

Seattle is fast becoming a great
city. One thing which makes it
famous is Seattle beer, which you
find at the Criterion. A good
thing always makes its mark.
This is one of the best things on
earth.
In addition to the two invoices
of Picture Moulding just received
by the Pacific Hardware Co., they
have on the way a line of special
frames in the latest designs, made
specially to their order at the
East.
If you want to frame anything
in the very best manner; If you
want your frame to harmonic
with your picture; if you want the
best and most tasteful frame in
the market, 60 to King Bros, Ito
Hotel street.
The Criterion Saloon is a
pleasant place to 60 to and its
greatest attraction is the pure,
cold Seattle beer on draught
there. 1t makes ones mustache
curly and puts new life into the
failing consumptive.
The demand for Universal
Stoves and Ranges is daily in
creasing. The second invoice has
nearly all been disposed of and a
third is on the way. The superior
quality of the castings of this fac
tory and the fine finish of their
goods has given them the reputa,,
ton they enjoy in the United
States. They are sold by the
Pacific Hardware Co.

The leap year ball postponed from New
Years night is to be given by the ladies
on Friday evening, Jan. 10. at the Mon

sensation among the gentlemen of the
city and is giving the tailors a trench

some elaborate costumes Will be worn.
The prevailing style is to be, ii is said,
decollette vests and coats en- traine Van
Dyke boards are the proper thing for
those who can afford them and are ex-
tremely popular. but among the younger
set, which is now in the majority, the
faces will be worn clean shaven, but DIM
pies are being diligently cultivated.
Some of the bashful beaux are already
much embarrassed, as they have received
a half dozen invitations and can't quite
make up their minds which to accept. An
other very trying matter Is giving the
dear boys no end of trouble. So many OF
them are here away out West without the
protection of their parent. md there Is q
pressing demand for widowers or aged
bachelors who will be willing to act as
chaperones.

VEST HAD THE FLOOR


chamber. How had England respond
ed? Not with shot and shell and saber
stroke and battleship, but by throwing
our securities on the market. The
power of money was to be used to crush
us. On Monday. when the secretary OF
the treasury had issued his circular no.
tifying the country that bonds should
go to the highest bidder, Wall street
was dissatisfied. Two syndicates hao
cornered the gold-one paper said $780,
600 000-they were opposed to seliing
bonds to the public. 1t was humiliating
that the most intelligent people on the
globe whose heritage was a continent,
should, when they undertook to protect
their financial system, be met by an
autocratic ukase. We've got the gold,
and you must get 1t from us at our
price,
Vest, with glowing eloquence, said
he would rather have war. There were
calamities greater than war. Better
anything than to have us manacled and
gibbeted as we are now.
Vest next challenged the statement
that the people had any gold in their
stockings. In conclusion he made
strong plea for the free coinage OF sill
yer and financial independence. At the
conclusion of Vests remarks the SEN
ate, at 4:25 o'clock y. m. went into exc
cutive session, and then adjourned
until tomorrow.

Republican Caucus

Washington, Jan. THE republican
senators went into caucus at 1880 to-
day, but adjourned at IL to meet again
after the conclusion of the days ses-
sion of the senate The entire time or
the caucus was consumed i'm discussing

bill, but no formal expression was Sc
cured upon amy of them, this being left
until the afternoon session. The pre-
vafling sentiment appeared to De

came from the house. Several senators
expressed doubts as to the wisdom OF
the bill i'm any shape, and there was an
evident disposition regarding the Dill
as purely an emergency measure.
Senator Quay moved the adoption OF
the house bill, but the motion was lost
sight of in the general discussion. Ba-
ker. the new senator from Kansas,
made a vigorous speech in opposition
to the house bill If 1t came before the
senate unamended. He said II any

vored a course of non-acting in view
of the declaration of the administration
that the present tariff would afford all

should be made in a few schedules only
such as those covering wool and sugar,
which should be reformed upon purely
protection lines.
other speeches were made by Sena-

FATAL TO HORSES.
Many Animals Are Dying In wisconsin
From Eating Golden Rod.


From Eating Golden Rod.
Beaver Dam Letter to Garden and
Forest.
During the last four years a large
number of horses have died In the
northern part of this state from the
ravages of a disease which has banned
the skill of veterinarians, and 1 have
been called upon to make investiga-
lions as to the cause and nature OF the
malady At first 1t was thought to be
anthrax and samples of the blood and
sections from the spleen and other in
ternal organs were sent to the bureau
of animal industry and to DR.. Russell
of the state university for bacterioiog-
ical examination. Numerous bacteria
were found, but the bacillus antnracis
was not present.
The horses affected were in the ma
jority of cases heavy draft horses from
the lumber camps. These animals were
brought from the woods in the spring
usually in good condition, and turned
out to pasture. Most of them were fed
grain while on pasture. On the farm
of NJ. c. F. Reynolds, Hayward, Wis,
over 20 horses have died during the last
four years from this peculiar malady.
The pasture contained about 300 acres
of which had been broken and seeded
to timothy. Adjoining this was 1OC
acres of "slashings" or land from which
the timber had been cut, but which had
never been broken. This was thickly
covered with golden-rod. On one side
| of the farm is a lake with a clean
/ graver bottom and shore. The lake is
/ fed by springs. There is no marsh or
/ low land on the farm. Upon investiga-
ton / became convinced that the cause
of the trouble was to be found either
| in the food or water and watched the
horses closely for several days, and
saw them eating the gold-rod greedily
some of them, especially those af-
fected, seeming to prefer the plant tc
anything else.
/ also visited the farm of Peter Tru-
ak, near Eau Claire. There Is no gold
en-rod to be found on his farm, and the
disease has not made its appearance
During the past summer Mr.. TruaS
