A LONG AND REMARKABLE VOYAGE.
The most remarkable voyage on rec.
ord was lately made by the steamer
Tampico, Capt. Jensen, from Chicago,
in the heart of the continent, where
she was built, via the great lakes and
st. Lawrence river, down the Atlantic
Coast to the Straits of Magellan
thence up the Pacific, to San Francis
co, the width and length of the cont.
nent. She was at sea only SO days in
making the long trip. She left Chi.
cagO last fall, but was detained at
New York several months, in service.
She left Norfolk in May for San Fran
cisco, and was detained Is days at
Montevidio to repair a broken rudder.
Seventy-three days were consumed
under steam and % in port on the
voyage, for repairs as above and at the
straits. The Tampico is one of feet
OF steamers to make the same trip, the
Eureka and the Meteor, sister boats,
being on the way out. The Tampico
is 247 feet long, AZ wide, and 2,l33
tonnage.

Schley for President.

A very natural sequence OF abuse oil
a man who has rendered the country
inestimable service, is apparent in a
movement, originating in Maryland
to make Admiral Schley candidate
for the Pres lency in 1904. There
seems to bc hut one opinion OF the re-
suit OF the court Of inquiry, a complete
affirmation of the popular view of the
Admiraps course at Santiago and
award of the full laurels for that un'
paralleled marine battle. His retiracy
from active duty, this year, will render
him available. and with robust health
at the age of 65. which he will have
attained when that campaign begins
he will be in the prime OF that mature
life which develops, in his class OF men
the acme of manhood, mentally and
physically.
A meeting of prominent Democrats
was held in Baltimore few days ago
by whom the availability OF the Ad-
miral was considered in all its bearings,
and there was but one opinion on the
matter, and it was that he possessed all
requisites for a successful candidate.
The whole party can unite on him, for
he has no record that will ALLEVIATE any
of the factions which have arisen dur
ing the mOmentous career OF the old
est of parties. Not having mixed with
civil affairs, he will have no explana-
tons to make.
1t would, indeed, be graceful act
on the part OF the people, irrespective
of party, to signify their disapproval OF
the manner in which he has been
treated by the Naval Department to
make him q candidate for the highest
honors that can be conferred by the
people. He would be an invincible
candidate, and the logical nominee OF
q party that has deprecated the policy
which has made aristocrats and ma
hobs of the leaders OF the party in
power.
The irony of events is shown in the
result of an attempt by the force of
exalted power to check the renown of
the great commander, that it should
become the means of placing him in
line for still greater honors.

nation to show the Sultan il was in

down from the bluff made.
It seems that the trouble arose over
making up of guaranty for payment
OF certain docking privileges Of a
French company which built wharves
at Constantinople. The tolls falling
short OF the guaranty, the French
minister called upon the Sultan and
demanded compliance with the stipu.
lation, and, as is usual when a de-
mand for money is made upon the
Sultan, his head was above the clouds,
and he could not see any necessity for
complying with the first demand. In
fact his treatment OF the minister was
anything but decorous. and the Gallo
blood boiled with indignation.
Then again, France has q postof1ice
in Constantinople, and Turkey does
not like that, for it interieres with her

sent TO removal of the Objectionable

pretext for refusing payment of the
dockage deficiency guaranty, but it is

ment. that the Sultan can resist hay
ing his leg pulled without any excuse
or pretext. That high dignitary
thought, in this instance, that he
might be able TO exchange the postal
privilege for the money due on the
wharf guaranty, but France could not
see it that way, and encouraged by
this country's success in extracting
blood from a turnip." proceeded to
brighten the Turk into compliance
with his agreement.

Must Provide a Passage-Way.

At the last meeting OF the City
Council proposition was submitted
which must be met and treated in a
spirit of fairness, or the city will run
upon a snag that may disable her Tor
long time. A demand was presented
by Mr.. Israel, general counsel for the
Capital Brewing and Wiley Naviga-
ton Companies, demanding that OBJ
structions be removed from the chan
mel of the Deschuties river, which
flows through. natural waterway
embraced in the harbor-line survey
and approved by the War Department
at Washington. The obstruction re-
ferred to, SO far as the city is con-
cerned, is Fourth street bridge across
the waterway named. The channel
has been obstructed the past 80 years
by long bridge and for less periods by
the county bridge at lower Tumwater
and the N. p. Railroad bridge SPAN
ming the inlet from Warren's Point to
the beach fronting Capitol Hill. Sew
eral years ago, Mr.. Schmidt and others
built the large brewery at Tumwater,
on what was believed to be an estuary
useful for transportation of the prod
uct of the establishment by light -draft
steamers to this and other cities on
the Sound. There existed at that
time pile-bridge on Fourth street,
with a draw capable Of admission of
such vessels to the extreme waters Of
Budd's Inlet, at Tumwater. When
the harbor improvements were made,
however, the city had the line of
Fourth street filled in with the soil de-
posted by the dredger, except a chan.
mel waterway, which was closed to nav
igation by piling and stringers for con-
tinuation of the bridge planking with
out . draw or any provision for the
passage Of water craft of any kind.
The communication to the counsel
was referred to the committee on
Wharves and Bridges, without discus
sion, where sometimes important mat
tiers are "pigeon.holed." 1t is not
intended, however, that this shall be
the fate Of the present demand. The
Council will be given q reasonable
time to consider and plan, but if &C.
ton is not then taken the united cor
porations will proceed against that
body for maintaining public nuisa nee
obstruction by of . navigable stream.
After time has been given for deliber.
ton, should the Council not act
promptly, action will be at once taken
for adequate remedy for all shipping,
but should proper disposition prevail,
the petitioners will be content with an
eight foot elevation OF q 40-ieet span
above the present roadway to be ap-
preached by inclines thereto. The N.
p. Company signify willingness to
adapt their bridge soon as the city
provides for opening Fourth street
bridge.
The matter will then be up to the
county, and it may be asked to make
some provision for meeting the de-
mands Of commercial progress. One
thing is certain, however, and that il,
the leading business enterprise pro-
poses no longer TO be hampered by the
dilatory course OF those charged with
important public duties. They must
be taught, if need be. that the rights
OF navigation are paramount to the
rights OF roadways over navigable
streams.
