New York, Nov. 3.-The following
statement was given out by Seth Low
shortly before midnight:
''rhe year has been a heavy Demo-
cratic year everywhere. Tnmnany has
felt the advantage Of this strong ten
dency think this circumstance shows
the absolute necessity, II it also shows
the difficulty, of separating municipal
from state and national issues, If the
cities are ever to be governed on their
merits In the light Of the events it Is
clear that the Citizens Union has made
a gallant fight for principles that are
vital 1t Is better to have fought ard
lost in such Il cause than not to have
fought at all.
"Thore is no need to despair Of good
government in the city when such T.
struggle could be made against such
odds. The returns show that there was
no possibility Of Republican success on
a contest on party lines. nor is 1t easy
to imagine time when in this city
there Will be.
For the sake Of the city I greatly
deplure the result and yet I would
urge all whom my voice may influence
not to loee heart. We have laid the
foundation. It may well be hoped, for
future Success and ours is not the first
cause that has suffered at the outset
a heavy reverse.
II bespeak for the new mayor and his
associates the cooperation of all my
supporters. as pledge my own, in any
effort they may make to administer
the government Of the city in the in

now WE FEED JOHN BULL.

The United States sent l03,000,000
pounds of ham to Great Britain last year.
Something over 3OO,O00,OO0 pounds Of
American bacon took the same reference,
and as for our lard, Great Britain receiv-
ed 40 per cent OF the total exports, which
amounted to 200, 100000 pounds.
John Bull is also fond of our fresh beef,
and consumed practically all OF 225 ,000,-
600 pounds which we sent abroad during
1896. OF our exports of sailed meats
during the same period he contended
himself with half The amount of Amer
lean tallow that John Bull is able to as.
simulate with the rest OF our victuals is a
matter of special wonder. Each year ne
requires larger amount, until last year
il reached the grand bulk of $4,000, 900
pounds, which was about 40 per cent. OF
all We produced. What it will be next
year there is no telling. We are perfect
" willing to feed Mr.. Bull, no matter
what he may require to tickle his won
deriul palate. His appetite is good and
80 is his pay.

Date OF the Christian Fra.

Judge |. A. Navarro writes that ne
read in THE HERALD the statement of
Judge Green on the subject of the Chris
tian Era which he thinks is evidently
correct but that the eminent Seattlite
took long road to reach conclusions
He submits the following as much briefer
and fully as pointed:
Does the Christian era date from the birth or
the death OF Christ ~ q.
Dionysius Parvulus, when he devised
the present era, intended to make it date
from the birth of Christ. His calcula-
tons were investigated later, and it Wac
found that Christ was really born four
years before the date fixed by Donysius
as the first year of the Christian era.

Making wills Uncomfortable.

In view of the many attacks on wills
because of the alleged incspacity of the
persons making them, a Connecticut leg.
islator proposes law to the effect that
every individual who makes a will may
deposit it with a legal officer, who shall
give public notice that a will has been
offered, and that all who wish to question
the testator's capacity shall have GER
tain time in which to do so; and il no
objection is made, then the will shall not
be subject to attack on that ground after
death. The passage of such law in all
Of the states would materially reduce the
number of will contests, and promote the
distribution of property according to the
real desires of testators, besides lessening
the fees Of lawyers, who now often get
large shares Of estates through contro-
versy of that kind.

A firm Of brewers and maltsters OF
Chicago and Milwaukee propose to erect
a great beer palace in New York, the cost
OF which is estimated at $1,000, 600.
Music. heavenly maid, will be enshrined
in this great institution, but its chief
purpose is to promote and encourage the
consumption of certain brand of beer.
There will be much glass and marble and
onyx used in the construction of the
building, and spreading palms will invite
the thirsty to garden in the rear. If a
million dollars is not enough to make
this the most beautiful creation of the
kind IN the United States another mil.
lion will be added to the first. The
example Of prodigality may stimulate
other wealthy brewers TO spread some of
their millions around among the people
who originally contributed them on the
installment plan, shining nickel at a
time. Let the beer palace 90 up.

All are hoping that the present driz-

be over. For mud, dsmpness and un-
healthfulness this winter has never been
precedented in Yakima. Even the cold
spell Of the early winter would be well
coined back in preference to a continu-
ance Of the present conditions for there is
compensation in cold in the improved
sanitary conditions it brings. Disease
germs thrive in an open winter while the

There is an effort being made in New
York to pass pure beer" bill. OF
course bitter fight is being made by in
terested parties one of whom testified
that the public preferred beer not made
of malt and hops. Another protested
that the consumer preferred rice to malt
while still another intimated that popu-
lar taste had so improved that beer made
from chemical denominations was found
to be superior to that which was the pro-
duct of the old standards. The fact is
that rice flour is employed to thicken
beer and raise the collar" on the glass
to the altitude of the prevalent fashion
in dudes attire, and all the authorizations
are used in order to aid in the dissent
nation of hob-nailed ivers, diabetis and
Brght's disease, and the incidental build
ing up OF great fortunes within few

presented a most remarkable report
which the Legislature, evidently anxious
to have further investigation cease, has
accepted. In practical effect the report
states that members of the legislature
conferred with senatorial candidates with
a view to the bartering of votes and that
senatorial candidates figured with mem.

The free distribution of seeds by the
department of agriculture was well ven
tilated in congress the other day. Secre-
tary Morton is radically opposed to the
custom and one member asserted that he
purposely procured poor seeds in order to
discredit the system, while another
claimed that the firm of May & Co., of
Minneapolis attempted to bride him from
calling attention to the quality of goods
they furnished the department. Mercer,
OF Nebraska, moved that the bill for free
distribution be amended to include poul-
try, swine and other live stock. The
discussion was called up by motion to
strike out the appropriation for seeds,
but it failed to carry.

There never was a truer saving than
that The best is not too good" when
speaking OF the accommodations for a
long overland journey and therefore it
will be well for the traveller going east to
remember that he will be very weary
when he gets to St. Paul or Minneapolis,
and that he shall make q wise choice of
routes from there to Chicago and Mil
waukee. The Wisconsin Central trains
run between these points making close
connections with all trains at both termi
nails. Posted travellers seek this route
for many reasons, one of which is, they
can get we'll cooked neal at moderate
price, and eat it at leisure as they speed
to their destination. For particulars
address Geo. :. Batty, General Agent,
