THE STATE PRESS.


Victoria Colonist: DR.. Sheldon Jackson
expresses the hope that the Canadian
government will enforce regulations
against foreigners in the Yukon, for he
says that will keep United States citizens
in Alaska. 1t would be an excellent plan
TO obige the good doctor In this matter
Olympian: No better selection in the
state for the office OF regent of the state
university could be made than that of
John B. Allen, but it Is doubtful IL he will
accept the place. 1t has become certain
that II is dangerous for self-respecting
man TO place his reputation in the hands
of the chief executive. If some little mat
ter did not go to suit him he would pro-
coed TO attempt to blacken his character.
Puyallap Citizen: The fusionists are
keeping up the record inaugurated at the
time such corrupt practices were exhibit
ed in the senatorial election. The logging
law. the mortgage law. and about every
other law that was hurried through by
the pinto party after that scandalous con-
test has been found to be unconstitutional
and imperative. All the multitudinous
factions of the fusionists have been busy
advertising each others dishonesty.
Fairhaven Herald: The name OF the
new city appears to cut quite figure
in the question of consolidation. 1t Is
needless TO think OF its being Fairhaven,
and the name Whatcom is just as objec-
tionable. We may as well at once drop
both names. This being seeded upon.
there is no other alternative but to call
the child Bellingham; a child that will be
larger than its parents on the very day
of It's birth, and everybody can then look
with pride to the city that is destined to
be one of the most important on Puget
sound If We write and all pull together.

LATE NEWS.

Pliney, To- of Peter Trude was drowned
yesterday, at Newport, VT in the Clyde river by
falling out OF a boat. He and two other boys
were fishing, just opposite Causeway street
Trudell stood up, and the boat rocking. he lost
his balance and fell into the water The boys
cried for assistance, but, as they could not speak
English, those who heard them misunderst ood
their distress. The body was found.
Mrs Roxanna Goss, IS. widow of Willard Goss,
who died in Greenfield, and whose body was
brought to Winchester for burial the Goth. was a
last days with relatives in Greenfield She was
the mother of l.. w. Goss, prominent Hnsdale
contractor and builder. In Evergreen cemetery
at Winchester are buried six members of the
Goss family, whose ages at death were so years
over.
The horribly mutilated body OF Brayton c. Da-
Wis, i5, resident of Rchford, was found yester-

Deserving the Ranks.

\ year ago William A. PETER of Kansas,
then United States senator, and since the
4th of last March an ex-senator, was one
of the foremost advocates of an outright
endorsement by the Populist party of Mr..
Bryan and his free silver platform. Today
Mr.. PETER is equally active and pronounced
in urging the Populists to keep out of any
partnership with the free silver Democracy.
His declaration against any further fu-
sion with the Bryan forces was made last
week before Populist convention in Iowa.
Mr.. PETER still thinks "there ought to be,
and eventually will be, general coalition
of voters against the present goldstandard
and high-tariff regime" but he intimated
plainly his belief that the lllondike dis
coyeries have eliminated the Silver Repubi-
cans as political factor. "Those who
want more metallic money will probably
be satisfied with gold if there is enough
of it" is one of Mr.. Peffer's propositions
which hardly admits of successful dispute.
OF Mr.. Bryan he declared that "He must
broaden out; he must change; free silver
alone will not carry him through"
Another significant sign of the way last
years enthusiasts are deserting the free
silver cause was the declaration of ex. Gov.
Horace Boies of Iowa at Democratic
campaign meeting last week that in his
belief free silver at IL to has now become
impossible, that he doubts its desirabilty
even if it were attainable, and that further
insistence on the Is to l ratio will ruin the
whole free silver cause To his mind the
most feasible plan ever suggested 'for the
restoration of silver to its rightful place as
redemption money" was that outlined by
Secretary Window in 1889. Stated in his
own language Mr.. WINDOWS proposition
was this:
Tissue treasury notes against silver bull
lion at the market price of silver when de-
posted, payable on demand in such guam
titles in silver bullion as will equal in val
lie at the date of presentation the number
of dollars expressed on the face of notes at
the market price of silver, or in gold, at
the option of the government, or in silver
dollars, at the option of the holder"

The Popular Judgment.
They Conclude that the Country Is
Prosperous Under Republican Rule.

Prosperous Under Republican Rule.
From the New York Tribune
Events could hardly have suited Repub-
lican interests more perfectly than they
have during the last few years. 1t is not
yet quite a month since the new Republi-
can tariff was passed and signed by the
President. All Free Traders will of course
assert that the rapid change in the con-
dition of business has had nothing to do
with the tariff. So they likewise asserted
that the beginning of commercial disaster
within two weeks after the election in
1892 was in no way caused or hastened by
the result of the election. The world does
not readily ascribe several such coinci-
dences to accident. The plain people note
the beginning of bad times in November,
1892, within fortnight of Mr.. Cleve-
lands election, and the era of good times
in August, 1897, within a fortnight after
the enactment of a Republican tariff, and
40 years of agonized special pleading will
not alter the conclusion which most men
form.
1t is obvious that the partial failure of
European crops has much to do with
American industrial prosperity. So the
banking panic in Europe late in 1890 was
not a result of Democratic votes. How
serious the influence of foreign disasters
would have been in this country had no
revolution in national politics been fore
shadOwed may not be definitely stated.
But everybody can understand that the
effects in this country would have been
much less serious if there had not been
such a state of things produced here in
1892 '93 as to promote heavy sales of
American securities on foreign account
and large exports of gold from this coun-
try. No doubt the large crops and the
foreign demand have helped the country
this year and will yet help it, but no such
effects as are now seen could have been
produced if there had not been steady
preparation for months in every branch of
industry for the revival expected after the
enactment of a new tariff Without ig-
noring the contributing influence of for
egn disasters in 1892 or of foreign demand
in 1897, it may be claimed with reason
that the rough public judgment is not in
error. Great disasters came in 1S92-'93,
and it IS not probable that such disasters
would have appeared had not a revolution
in the policy of the government been
threatened. Great improvement comes in
1897, but such improvement, probably,
would not have come if return to the
wise Republican policy had not favored it
to the utmost.
If every voter in the country draws
from the course of events of the last five
years the conclusion that the Republican
policy means national prosperity, he will
not be seriously in error

N. t. Ryan Chosen Treasurer of the
state Order of FOresters

The third annual convention of the Vermont

mittee on credentials and T, A. Austin of Brattle-
boro OF the committee on state of the order.
The report of the state chief ranger showed
that Vermont had gained $50 members in the
past year, Massachusetts, which had been under
the jurisdiction of Vermont, has now member
ship large enough to organize state court
The report of the state secretary sho wed that
the order has 1856 members in the state divided
among 81 courts. Vermont has gained nine
courts in the past year. The report refers to the
admission Of RI. Rev, John S. Mchaud, coadiutor
of the bishop of Burlington, into the order, and
the visit cf High Secretary T. b. Thielle of Chi
cago % Vermont as the two important events of
the year. The report of N. T. Ryan state treas.
urer, showed balance for the year Of 1857 63. 1t
