our Lake Commerce.

While we are pointing with pride" to
our great foreign trade, and Its wonder
ful increase, 1t would be well to con-
slider the magnificent proportions which
our internal commerce has attained.
AS a factor in that problem nothing
shows the growth Of the country 50 well
as the extent Of the commerce Of the
great inland sea stretching from Buffa-
10 to Chicago and Duluth. known as the
great lakes" The character Of this
trade is shown by the figures Of the bu-
reau Of statistics of the treasury de-
partment, which are just at hand, Civ
ing the details of the commerce passing
through the sault Ste. Marie canal.
This canal, which connects Lake Super
Tor with Lakes Michigan, Huron, Erie
and Ontario, necessarily registers only
the trafic between the single lake, su-
perior, with Duluth as Its great concen-
trating and distributing point, and the
chain, Michigan, Huron. Erie and On
tario, with Chicago, Detroit. Toledo,
Cleveland and Buffalo as the great
points of concentration and distEibu-
ton.
The commerce passing through the
canal thus registers accurately the
movement between the single lake PEN
etrating the wheat and iron producing
regions and the chain tributary to the
corn, provision. and coal producing, and
iron manufacturing regions. It is the
gateway through which the wheat.
oats, fiour, iron ore. copper, and lumber
of Montanq, the Dakotas, Minnesota,
and northern wisconsin and Michigan
move to the consuming and manufae-
turing sections, while through the same
gateway move in the reverse direction
the coal, manufactures, and miscellane-
Gus merchandise from Lake Erie and
points still farther east.
The rapid growth OF the commerce
on the lakes is best shown by compare
sons. In 1889 the number OF vessels
passing through the canal was only
o57s. while last year, a stretch of ten
years, the number was 2o.o6b. The
Freight passing through the same chan
mel in 1893 was 25,255.s1O tons compared
with 7,5is,O22 tons in 1889. and the value
Of freight in 1899 was 2si,S6l,75o as
against $50. 7S2, 81 in 1889. That isareeord
that is eloquent in figures and facts.
since 1897 the Increase in the value OF
freight has been over Sso.OOo'oOo.

An Even Swap.

Two girls met in a dry goods store
yesterday. They had evidently not
seen each other for some time, as the
trend OF their conversation proved.
what good times we used to have at
the lake" said one.
Eyes, 1 like our own resorts, replied
the other, "better than on the coast.
Oh, say. where is my old flame. Perry2
l think the world Of that boy"
"oh, he's married"
You don't say! Who to"
well. Of all things" replied her
friend, flushing.
The conversation drifted. says the
Salt Lake Herald, but a short time Ia
ter reverted to its old channel.
"say, Hetty," remarked Perry's wite'
"did you meet Johnny-out in San
Franclsco?" And then added: He
told me that summer he was there that
he could not live without me-"

The outpouring of the Republicans at
the meeting Of the Ohio County Repub-
lican Club. which elected delegates to
the state convention Of the League of
clubs, which meets at Parkersburg,
March 8, shows that the rank and file
Of the party are thoroughly aroused for
the task set before them this fall. The
large attendance at the meeting was
not the only good feature, but the lively
interest the individual members Of the
club manifested In the proceedings and
the spirit Of harmony that prevailed
were the lest Indications that the party
viii maintain a solid front against the
enemy, and that there win be no lack
Of enthusiasm in the coming campaign.
While all the surface Indications au-
CUR well for the success of the party,
It is well to heed the remarks Of sena-
tor Scott, impaired to the Washington
correspondent Of the Intelllgencer, in
which he counselled the utmost vigil
lance and activity. He emphasizes a
very important fact, that we must not
be lulled to feeling OF security by past
successes, but should organize and or
ganlze early and efficiently to fight a
foe who win make the most desperate
efforts to regain control of the state.
The convention at Parkersburg prom
ises to be the largest In the history OF
the league. and with Senator John NJ.
Thurston to furnish the enthusiasm and
impart vim to the occasion It win be
successful in more ways than one.

There were two bold and vicious mis-
statements in the Market street organ
yesterday. which show what desper-
ate straits 1t has fallen into in its per-
verse opposition 10 the refundins ordin-
anee. 1t maintains withou; the suspic-
ion OF blush that the advocates of the
ordinance are fully organized and are
spending money lavishly to pull It
through When the Register made
this statement It knew 1t to be as false
rs the Chicago platform. but it is the
policy of that paper, as its whole his
tory viii show, TO start lIes knowing
full well the rapidIty with which a
falsehood travels and the time that
must elapse before truth overtakes 1t.
Again, while with inslnatlng hypo-
crlsy 1t implesses upon Its readers that
there is no politics in the matter it
stultlfies and discredlts It's professions
by falsely ntating that "heelers in every
ward in the city are industrlously de-
ceIving the uniformed as TO its provl-
aions"-meanlng the refunding ordl-
nance. II any ''heelers" are out they
are from the Register office, working
against the ordinance and from motives
Well-known to the public at large.
Readers Of the Register may swallow
insults to their intelligence other peo-
pie, and they are In the majority, are
not so gullibie.

Rsdomption d Pacific Coast.

The election Of Thomas Bard, Re
publican. by the legislature Of califor-
mia, to succeed Senator White, Demo-
crat, Is important, not only because It
ended a protracted dead-lock, but for
the reason that It signaliEes the COM
p!ete Transformation Of the political
conditions on the Pacific coast, which
were rather Maynard in 1885. In that
year Organism was rampant in the Pa
cidc coast states. and for time 1t
looked rather squally for Republican,
ism in that section. The Republicans
had great deal to contend with In the
fusion Of PopullSts and silver Republic
cans with the Democrats, but a hard
fight on the line Of imperishable princi-
pies won the day and the coast at last
stands redeemed from Organism.
Speaking Of this revolution in politics
the New York Sun says: "of the two
senators from California at that hme.
one was a Silver Republican; both
Of the Nevada senator's were silyerites.
California had Democratic governor,
James H. Budd. Nevada had Silver
governor. In the previous state cleo
ton the Republicans of Oregon had
been the minority party in the vote for
congressman. The case was the same
in Washington. In no one of the four
Pacific states, California, Oregon, Ne
vada and Washington, we're the Re
publicans In a majority. The prospect
OF an alliance between the Democrats
and the Populists and the Silver Repu5-
licans seemed to render almost certain
the control of the twenty electoral votes
Of these four states.
Whatever may be the case elsewhere,
the popularity Of IS to / on the Pacific
is now no more than "reminiscences. 1t
has been entirely overshadowed by the
consideration OF another interest in
which Pacific coast voters are much
more directly concerned, namely, the
expansion of American commerce and
the maintenance of American sover-
eighty In the Orient, policy to which
the Republican party is Internationally
committed, and the acceptance of which
ON the Pacific is not limited to party
lines. AT the last general election. the
Republicans carried Oregon by 10000
majority. the silver majority in Nevada
had shrunk from 5000 to % votes, Cali
fornia elected Republican governor by
10000 majority. and the delegation to
the house was Republican with one ex-
cepton, while the state Of Washington
gave a Republican plurality of 5000
BY the election Of Mr.. Bard the Repu5-
licans of California now have both sem
ators. BY the election after deadlock
in Oregon of Joseph Simon, the Repub-
llcans have two senators from there.
The two Nevada silverites, Jones and
Stewart, arc again in the fellowship Of
the Republican party and participate
in Its caucus management.
Thus in no section Of the country
have the political changes within four
years been more strlkingly marked than
in the states Of the Pacific,

preme court, at its term just closed,
unanimously decided that a circuit
court cannot allow lawyers fees for de-
Tending criminals. and that IL allowed
by circuit courts, county courts must
not pay them, as there is no law to
pay them out of the taxation of the
people. This has been a question for
many years, some courts allowing, and
some refusing to allow such fees. It is
now finally settled.
