TO the Chicago convention are slim in
deed.
Senator Hill is now regarded by certain
politicians in Washington as the mos,
conservative man the democrats could
possibly select so far as the tariff and sill
yer issues are concerned next to the pres
ent president OF the United States. With.
in the past two years it has appeared
strange to many that the senior senator
from New York has defended the ad-
ministration upon every possible issue
that has come up in the United States
senate. This action on his part is all
the more remarkable because OF the fact
that Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Cleveland have
been personal and political enemies for
years. Just why Mr.. Hill has taken the
course that he has pursued during this
period is mystery too deep for the aver
age democratic politician to fsthom.
They can secure no consolation whatever
from Mr.. Hill, and Mr.. Cleveland has
absolutely declined to comment upon Mr..
Hills course in advocating and defending
nearly every question favorable to Mr..
Cleveland in the upper branch of of the
National Congress.
Mr.. Hill, during the present session,
as known everywhere, has been the abb
est defender that Mr.. Cleveland has had
on the democratic side OF the United
States Senate. 1t is presumed, being so
clever politician as he is, that Mr.. Hill
has had some Interior motive in pursuing
this line of policy Perhaps he has
patched up peace with Mr.. Cleveland,
four years ago the bitterest enemy he had
in public life, and II he has, people may
not be surprised between now and next
July to find the president giving Mr.. Hill
his support at Chicago instead OF either
Mr.. Olney, Mr.. Carlisle or any other man
looked upon as valuable timber to head
the Democratic National ticket in 1895.

The citizens OF Wenatcbee have under
consideration the moving. to tract OF
land lying on the Wenatchee river about
two miles from the present location. The
reasons given are that the present town
vas built up on land owned by the De-
velopment company. The lots were sold
at an exhorbitant figere on the Install
ment plan and although the purchasers
pay the taxes the lots are still practically
owned by the company with a strong
probability of remaining so. The pro-
posed site is considered better located and
it can be easily watered. The move is
not the agitation Of townsite boomers but
is being forced upon the residents by cir
cumstances.
Chief Engineer Thos. l.. Casey, OF the
U. s. army has submitted report to
the government approving OF the Okla
hogan river for improvement. The river
800 miles long, rising in British Column
bia and flows southerly, along the eastern
base OF the Cascade mountains, emptying
in the Columbia river at point where
the makes its last great bend to the
southwark. The 0kanogan has an aver
age width of 250 feet. The chief impedi-
ment to navigation is Mclaughlin falls,
about 40 miles from the river mouth.
The contemplated improvement would be
great incentive to the mining interests
OF Ruby Hill, Chloride, Mineral Hill,
Wanicott Lake and many other camps in

by difficulties of transportation

5000 people will enter the reservation this
spring and summer.

ITALY AND ABYSSINIA.

In demanding the resignation OF the
Crispi Ministry on account OF the terrific
disaster which has overtaken the Ital-
ian army IN Abyssinia the people of
Italy are seeking scapegoat for their
own sins. No doubt the Government has
grossly erred. There seems to be little
question, also, that General Batarieri, the
Italian commander OF the African expe-
dition, has been guilty of Grass stupidity
that reaches the proportions of colossal
crime. But these are not the only blame
worthy factors.
While the scheme OF wrestling Abys-
sinia from its native rulers and adding 1t
to the possessions of Italy promised sue
cess the majority of the people had moth.
ing but words of approval for it. In it
they imagined they saw chance for col
onizing the stolen territory with Italian
squatters and of turning it to individual
and national profit. Victory to Italian
arms they were prepared to indorse. Act
ing upon the principle that might makes
right they were prepared to witness with
out qualms the wholesale slaughter of the
native warriors. But they did not expect
a crushing defeat. They were not pre-
pared for the butchery and humiliation
OF their own gallant troops. That was
not the OK that they had anticipated
would be gored. They had not counted
upon the spirit of intrepidity, the love of
independence, that slumbered in the
bosoms OF the inhabitants of the Swift
erland Of Africa And in their wrath
grief and chagrin the Italian people now
insist upon victims for immolation. and
the most convenient they can find are
Signor Crispi, the ''strong man of Italy"
and bis counselors.
II the tragic ending Of the Abyssian
campaign shall result, however, in direct
ing the attention of the people of Italy to
dom este reforms it will be well worth all
1t has cost. The Italian government is
on the brink OF bankruptcy, its currency
system is debased, the people are ground
to earth by taxes to support immense
military and naval ornaments and the
nation is honeycombed with socialism
and discomfort. Such a condition OF af-
fairs cannot be tolerated much longer,
and unless it is speedily recti6ed the
masses may ruthlessly take matters into
their own hands.

This was done. The count paid sew
eral other visits to the club, but the day
before the check was due back from
Berlin he vanished. 1t turned out that
his account at his Berlin bankers
amounted exactly to So francs, and the
check was Of course dishonored
The affair caused great stir at the

1t is question that is being vigorously
agitated among politicians whether or not
Mr.. Cleveland prefers 0lney to Carlisle.
Both Of these distinguished gentlemen
have enjoyed close personal relations
with Mr.. Cleveland during the present
administration. 1t is probably true that
Mr.. olney has made a much better record
as encouragement of the United States
and as Secretary OF the state department
than Mr.. Carlisle has at the head OF the
treasury department. Mr.. 0lney, too,
has the advantage Of being resident of
Massachusetts,, a state north OF Mason
and Dixon's line. Mr.. Carlisle is south
OF this line, and for this reason Mr.. Cleve-
land may decide that it would be more
polite for him to WELD the strength he
has as president OF the United States in
favor Of Mr.. 0lney rather than Mr.. Carl
isle, who is looked upon unfavorably in
many sections OF the Union as presi-
Dental aspirant because OF his geograph-
cal position.
