Senator Quay, the noted political
boss OF Pennsylvania, 1t is said will
not be seated in the Senate. He was
appointed by he governor after the
legislature failed to elect. Senate
rules are az ainst admitting him,
and although his years OF services
has made him strong personally
and politically, it is said the Sena
tors are opposed to changing preee-
dent for his benefit. This appears to
be a proper position. Pennsylva
Mas legislature was in session sixty
daysand refused to elect a senator.
The state should be without one, or
else the election taken away from
the Legislature and the power given
to the governor at all times, which
is not advisable.

Christmas in Seattle.

SEATTLE, WASH, Jan. s, 1900 Seattle
had a green Christmas, all right, and
gentle mist in the morning. The tempera-
ture ranged from Al to "a, and g. 100 of an
inch Of rain fell. 1t was undoubtedly the
''brightest' Christmas, -notwithstandin
the cloudy weather-Which Seattle has
experienced for many year. Merchants
report an unprecedented trade and many
lions until after midnight on Saturday.
The postoffice reports 40 per cent. more
business at Christmas time than last year.
No residents of Seattle need have missed
the Christmas turkey, because of the fact
that public dinner was given all who
might come, under the auspices of the
Salvation Army, and more than 500 en-
joyed the dinner.
The farmers of the Puget Sound country
have no use for cyclone cellars, as severe
storms are never known here-neither
cyclones nor billiards. Cattle Craze the
year around, with very little if any snow
or ice to interfere. Upto Jan. LIST, there
had been neither. Crops are always GER
tain and the market is far from being
well supplied-it is practically unlimited.
Klondike conditions have naturally
brought many rough and criminal charac-
tiers to Seattle, where holdups and burglar
les, and swndling of intending klondikers
occasionally occur. One highwayman
got his deserts in a holdup recently, when
two of the gentry held up suburban Car.
The passengers drew their guns and gave
battle, resulting in the killing of one of
the would be robbers and the wounding
of one of the passengers. Probably the
other robber was wounded, as the battle
lasted until the revolvers were completely
emptied. Needless to state that there is
much rejoicing that one thug has received
his deserts, and there are at least two
heroes in town.
People en- route for Klondike or Cape
Nome should look out for other ''pros-
pectors' while coming overland to Seattle.
They are apt to make too many new ac-
quaintances who are ''well acquainted in
Seattle.'' 1t is too apt to be the case that
these gentry will desire short loan or
innoceptly introduce some skin game, or
meet another friend with an unpaid freight
bill. A man with good sense and who
keeps good company need never loose a
cent in Seattle, or en- route; but if he is
careless he can lose his ''wad' as quickly
in Seattle, or on the train, as anywhere on
earth. ''Never let 60 your ''wad. - my
son." is good advice. There's only one
way to keep it-and that is to ''keep it. )"
There are hundreds of wart withays ito p
it. o. M. MOORE.

Sardine Canning Syndicate.
Rival Industries in tIaine Combine and viii
Control the Market.

Rival Industries in blaine Combine and will
Control the Market.
EASTPORT, Me-, jan g. After an op-
position OF nearly one year, and the en-
tire canning season, from beginning, May
10, to close Dec. l, the two gigantic syndi-
Gates known as No. l and No 2 Joined
hands last week, the former now being the
only one in the field.
No. l syndicate, better known as the
Sea Coast packing company, was organized
in this city just 10 months ago and the
leading promoters who secured the many
canning plants were c. IL. Randall and
K. j. killick of Chicago.
No. l syndicate had y sardine cannipy
factories on the eastern Maine coast during
the past season, of which IS were located
in Eastport
Eleven of these plants in this city were
run part OF the five mouths Of the season,
and it is generally known that there was
little money III the enterprise during the
opposition.
NO. ? syndicate-betteT known as the
Standard sardine company-also had its
main office in this city, on Sea street.
This syndicate was more fortunate than
No. in buying up the big factories last
spring, as it secured n. OF these plants,
only six We're located in PASSPORT, the
others being scattered along the eastern
Maine coast
The two big plants of the A merican can
, company are located at North Lubec, near
this city, and were operated by the Stand
ard sardine company. They also owned
and conducted the new fertilizing plant
there, and when the two syndicates
came together the past week, these new
industries went with the trade.
1t is reported that fully $50, 900 had
been invested in the two plants of these
can making machines since they were put
up during the summer, and it is generally
understood that neither the French nor
the American machines used there turned
out the success anticipated by the invent
ors, promoters or investors.
Julius Wolff, the general manager of the
~ sardlne canning factories, also the big
plants at North Lubec, looked upon his
new machines as great success, but the
cans averaged many leaks, and the exper-
iments cost thousands of dollars until the
plant was closed several weeks ago.
The Sea Coast packing company now
has 40 sardine canning factories along the
eastern coast Of Maine, which Gives it al
most the entire control of the pack
| each season. Last year the pack reached
nearly 10000 cases, against 1900, 600
| the year before. The new combine will
also be known as the Sea Coast packing
company, syndicate No. | having a CAPT
tai of IS, 600, 600. OF this amount 50, 600,
OOJ came from the now defunct Standard
sardine company.
Stock taking has now begun in the p
factories under control of No. 2 but now
in the big consolidation.
Before the sardine canning season
opens, May 10, there will be many changes
in different factories, and with such
strong rival in the field this year there
will be a smaller chance of the three fac
tories outside the fence putting up
fish the coming season.

VISION.
A gray rock-tow ering by the water side
The low lap! lap! of the advancing tide;
A sun Drowned child, dreamy and wistful-
eyed.
Along the ripples sea-birds curve and dip;
From the blue distance comes home bound
ship;
Ont through the ar.off mist-gates white
sails slip.
A fishing boat rocks idly to and fro;
Along the sands the fishers come and go;-
Hark! on the wind the sailors "Yo. heave
no ~
0 homesick shell, thy low imprisoned roar
Brings back the sounding sea, the cliff
walled shore.
And the dear home that | may see no more.
MEMORIES.
A robins carol, for moment heard,
To faithful memory brings back again
The saucy chirrup of vagrant bird
Balancing lightly, by the soft wind stirred,
Upon an elm bough near a schoolhouse
pane.
A listening child forgets her spelling book;
The brghte y ed bird is calling her to go
Across the meadow to the sunny nook
Where, on the margin of silver brook,
The fair blue iris and the catkin5 grow.
The distant. drowsy murmur Of the bees
Paints pictures that nor time nor tears
dim,
OF sweet old gardens amid blossomlng trees,
OF lazy cattle standing to the knees
In buttercups along a rivers rim.
Sometime | catch q far-oft sea birds cry;
Again the surges beat stormy strand;
III sodden heaps the leaves of autumn lie;
And through my curtalned easement comes
the sigh
OF rising winds across a lonesome land
MY OLD HOME.
| watch yon ship ON her inbound track,
With the sunlight on her sails,
And my thoughts go fondly wandering back
To the far land whence she halls
Swifter they fly than the rowing wind
To the Northland broad and free
To the dear old home that | left behind
By the shore of another sea
Do sunbeams fall on its sentinel trees
AS brightly as of yore,
And light bong quiverng in the breeze
Throw shadows across the floor?
On woodbine twinlng about the caves
DO tlnts of autumn glow,
4 nd wild birds under the latticed leaves
Fit softly to and fro?
l know there are girlish steps still heard
In and ont of each well known room,
And light voice sings like a happy bird
In the twllight's gathering gloom;
ct come the tears into gentle eyes
AT tie sound along hall and stair,
AS thoughts of the wandering one arise
Whose voice was once heard there.
o chil,lhood's friends, o childhood's home,
Far over the sounding sea,
Though many mile of oceans foam
Separate you and me,
Yet love recks nothing of change or space,
A nd here on distant strand,
My spirit holds in fond embrace
The loved of that northern land.
