THE DEATH OF QUEEN VICTORIA

The great career of Queen Victoria is
ended. She passed away to that
"bOurne from which no traveller re-
turns" at Osborne house, Oh the Isle
of Wight, Tuesday night, with all the
members of the royal family who were
able to reach her gathered about her
and the people of the mighty nation of
which she was the titular ruler for a
longer period than any other sovereign
in history waiting in sorrow for new S
of the end-news which has been re-
ceived with heartfelt regret in the
homes of English speaking people all
the world over. Her reign covered the
most marvellous period of human pro-
gress in the worlds history and
throughout all the great events which
characterized it, however bitter the
feeling at times toward the govern
ment, she retained the sincere love and
respect of the people, rich and poor,
aud of high or low degree. She was
not first in war" in the various con.
tiicts in which the empire was involved
during the nearly twO-thirds of a CELL
fury of her reign, but she was always
first in peace and first in the hearts of
her countrymen," for she was more
than q monarch she was genuine
Christian woman, a loving wife and
mother and model of the best domes-
tic virtues.

AS the electoral vote is apportioned
to the population, this table will give
fair idea how fast our country has
grown. In several instances there was
a decrease in the number of electors,
but that was due to change in the
apportionment and not to decrease in
population.
The electoral college Is the outgrowth
of the deliberations of the Constitution
al convention of 1887. When the con.
vention met none of the members
seemed to want ali executive head
chosen by direct vote. The "Virginia
plan" provided for an election by the
National Legislature" the "Pennsyl-
vania plan" looked for an election by
special electors, who should meet and
choose the President from outside their
own number. There was long dis
cussion; the Virginia plan was adopted
at one time and then set aside; finally
the present arrangement was adopted.

UNAVOIDABLE TO SAN JUAN

The people of this county can hardly
be expected to regard with favor the
proposition of the Wilshire-Jones re-
apportionment bill to include San
Juan, jefferson and Clallam counties
i'm one senatorial district. We have no
intimate relations of any kind-trade,
social, industrial or political-with the
counties across the straits, and such a
tripartite senatorial alliance Us the one
proposed from King county is neither
natural nor desirable. The federal
census of 1900 shows that few, if any,
counties i'm the state which contain no
large cities or towns made greater
percentage of gain in population dur
ing the past decade than San Juan.
jefferson county lost nearly one-third.
The development, resources, industries
and advantages of this county are such
that an even greater percentage Of in
crease during the next ten years may
reasonably he expected. But the
growth and development of the county
will not bring it into any closer bust
ness relations with jefferson aud Clal-
lam, and it would seem that both
Justice and common sense should die
tate ithat wherever it is necessary to
include two or more counties in one
senatorial district, the grouping should
be governed, SO far as possible, by com.
munity of business interests and faclli
ties for INSTRUMENTATION. From
our point of view there is nothing
whatever to commend the proposition
to make this county the tail end of d
weak senatorial district divided 10y the
Straits of Fuca. 1t would lie far better
for us to remain with Skagit, or be at
tached to one of the stronger districts
the stronger the better-aLd the one
with which we are most closely assOci
ated in an industrial way, as we are
now with the Bellingham Bay district
by reason of the vast fisheries interests
which are centered there and the grow.
ing market which the bay cities afford
for the products of our farms and or
chards.
