Blk kIonq Water Front.

For number of days the first of this
week there was not a schooner to be
seen in the river near this port. Such
is not the case now as there are seven
either loading or unloading. Most Of
them coming into the river bring n
cargo of coal and out take either ice
or lumber. There will not be many
more days this year when there are
not several in this port.

REID AND M'kINLf,N.

Some time back. from various points,
the New York Tribune began TO do lit
Tie pot-nring in the direction of the
White House. 1t was known that White
law REID had been mffed by the evidence
of his waning influence in that quarter,
but when it was observed That for the
most part his guns were loaded with very
fine shot, and the Tribunes record for
eteadfast loyalty and faithfulness to all
Republican administrations was recalled
the public naturally concluded that there
was nothing very serious intended by
the performance. The disposition was to
Nook upon it as somewhat in the nature
OF a semi-playful diversion designed to
sitting" MIR. Mckinley into sense of
his ingratitude.
But since Mr.. Mckinley saw ut to con-
suit and placate Boss Platt before APP
pointing Enhu Root TO be secretary Of
War, Il has become daily more clear that
the public have been deceiving them
selves. by degrees the Tribune has been
loading its gun with heavier and more
deadly ammunition, gradually hap
hazard has settled down TO point
blank aim, and now there seems no ques-
ton that the shooting is for the purpose
Of Gripping. If not killing.
Immediately after the Root affair the
Tribune dropped some very demoralizing
shots into the administration circle. but
during the past week its firing has been
particularly vicious. rapid and effective.
on last Monday, as we noticed the Tri-
bune. at short range, discharged hurt
Ter" which literally cut the grass from
under Mr.. McKinley's feet, so far as the
administrations representations touching
The philippines were concerned. In spe-
cial TO bis paper the Washington CORES
pondent n the Tribune embodied several
extracts from letters from naval officers
at Manila. which showed the admins
tration up in most hurtful light. The
testimony OF those officers confirmed
every charge previously made as to the
bad faith in which Mr.. Mckinley and his
imperialist advisers were acting 10
wards the American public. 1t sustained
in every detail the Oft repeated accusa-
lion that the administration. with the
connivance OF OTIS, had for months been
systematically engaged in suppressing the
truth respecting the conditions In the
philippines. and had resorted TO the
erossest deception and misrepresentation
IN order 10 mislead the people regarding
the progress OF the war. And all this
the Tribune passed without editorial
comment-a fact that is cruelty signiti-
cant
But Mr.. Reds revenge did not end
here. Oh, no. Hardly had the echo Of
that shot pied away, and the dust II
raised subsidized, ere the Tribune let OFF
In Ohio another tremendous gun against
Mr. Mckinley. And although this shot
Was at long range, Il could not have
produced less trepidation In the admin
'strauon gang than did the Washington

THE STATE Committee.

Those candidates for the Legislature
who claim TO be Democrats, and regular
nominees at that, could not expect to be
sustained in their position when they re-
fused to submit their contests TO the ar
tnrament Of the state Committee Of our
party.
Our unvarying advice to them was to
defer to party usage and make their fights
before the committee. In not doing 50
they have erred, and if they continue in
the field they cannot but expect to be
treated as Independents invariably have
teen treated in the past
There is yet time for them to recon-
slider. and this we trust they will do, how
ever much sacrifice of personal feeling it
may involve.
The welfare OF the State is insepara5ly
involved i'm the success of the party, and
party unity cannot be preserved without
cue respect for the decisions Of our State
Committee. Therefore, we say the indie
pendents must retire. or take the conse-
ouenCes.
