While IT lis Known that the Naval War

thst nothing hrs yet been sone looking

stated that nothing Will be dons
In this direction unless uhe Spaniards q
should continue to ovade the armorclads.
The fact Ia, ~ said on officer, THAT the

nrmored cruisers can meet with safety.
The armored SIDES oftbe cruisers ara from
ten to twelve inches In thickness and the

The Republics silence last week re-
garding the election of Hanna was the
cause of some tall kicking on the part of
the local contingent of the q. o. 2. They
did not stop to consider that the editor
of that sheet was very busy about that
time trying to decide which would do
the least harm, to disregard Senator Will
sons demand that he be defended in the
Old Town postoflice affair or to stir the
matter up again. He chose the latter
horn of the dilemma, and reminded the
people once more of the smallest and
most dsgraceful political deal that ever
occurred in Yakima county.

mission appointed by the President and
whose efforts he was cordially and zeal

In summarizing the situation. the Sem
ator says "it is apparent that for the time
being il is useless to count on any co.
operation from Great Britain toward p
bimetalic agreement. and that while
France actively desires to see silver re.
stored 10 its old position as a standard Of
value, equally with gold, she insists that
the problem is one which demands inter
national action and the cooperation to
some adequate extent OF other leading
commercial nations OF the world"
Continuing his presentation of the in.
ability OF an international blmetallism,
Mr.. Nolcntt said: "With difference of
opinion that may accrue to the ability Of
this country to maintain the parity he.
tween silver and gold, there is no ques.

HERALD 10 without fear of contradiction
when it says that every bimetallist in the
United States does favor international
bimetalIism. The only difference is rs
to the best way to bring it about. We
claim that the only way to bring it about
is for the United States to take the lead
When we do SO there will be no neces
sity to send commission abroad.
France will follow in three months, and
all Europe will be forced to follow.
Continuing, he says: International
bimetalism is not a myth-a chimera
The people OF Europe are, even as We
are, struggling to keep their heads above
water, and seeking blindly for that which
may make for them prosperity and pro.
gress." The Senator gave notice that he
should resign from the commission, but
there was nothing else in his speech that
indicated what his future policy would
be, with the exception of an antagonism
to the Gage plan of currency reform.

OUR TENTH VOL UME.

With this number THE HERALD begins
It's tenth volume. But a few short months
have elapsed since the present manage
ment took charge. That we have full
filled all the promises we made to give
our readers a good paper is amply proven
by our increased circulation, which has
already nearly doubled, and by the in
creased business as shown by our adver.
Using columns.
We have no promises to make as to the
future course of THE HERALD, either 10.
cally or politically, differing from those
we made in our salutstory of September
2, 1897. For the purpose Of emphasizing
the political position of THE HERALD, and
that it may he thoroughly understood,
we quote in full our former promises:
Its political policy will be TO aid in
the fusion OF those forces which, through
bimetalism, are striving to free the peo-
pie from that which they believe 20 be in
direct conflict with the constitution, and
which they believe TO be detrimental to
the best interests OF all American citi.
zens. We shall at all times advocate re-
forms which we believe become neces
sary for the stability of our city, county,
state and nation.'
The Republican party has at last re-
moved it's mask and come out boldly for
monometalism, which, together with the
disgraceful manner the Ohio Legislature
was manipulated in the election of NJ. a
Hanna to a seat in the United States
Senate, and the many other fragrant
abuses and wrongs which are encouraged
by the present Administration of our ma
tional affairs will stimulate TIE HERALD
to increased energy in promugstng the
principles and urging the unity OF the
opposing forces.
The HERALD has from its first number
been tireless and earnest worker for the
material advancement OF North Yakima
and Yakima county, and as such a
champion, has gained and ever held the
good will OF the people. With your kind
encouragement and support, we will use
our best endeayors to make Volume IL
even more useful in that capacity than
any preceding volume. Our warmes,
thanks are extended to our patrons for
all past favors.

The manner in which the "advance
agent of prosperity" has opened the new
year in the New England States with n
cut OF from 10 to 10 per cent in the wages
OF operatives of cotton mills in those states
has resulted in strike which throws
5000 of them out of employment. The
long winter in that section has yet but
fairly begun. The hardship brought
about by the strike will be appalling, yet
the strikers alone are responsible. They
voted to perpetnate the single gold stand

their reward. ii that kind of prosperity
