SeIDy Plant is Closed.

A dispatch from Benicia Calf, states
that the attorney representing the
Selby Smelling Company has taken the
deposition of e. M. Billings of that city.
Mr.. Billings had instituted suit against
the company for damages aggregating
$1450 for the loss of livestock, which he
alleged was caused by poisonous gases
from the Selby plant. The farmers
from Benicia and Glencove have organ
lied and filed similar suits totaling al
most 500, 900. 1t is said that the COM
pany will close the Selby plant and ship
all ores to Tacoma for some time to
come.

Goldfield Mines Go Down.

The finding of rich ore in the deeper
levels of the Goldfeld mines is causing
many Of the mine owners to sink deeper
and deeper. The fallacy that the ore
bodies would not retain their richness
with depth is now exploded. Among
others, the Goldfeld Combination Frac-
ton Mining company has decided to
continue their 23O foot shaft to a depth
of 300 feet, the full length of their
cable. Work is to be commenced inn
m%ediately. The management, Myers
and Murphy, well known as the fathers
of G~oldfeld, consider that the large
body Of milling ore which they have
opened up on the $50 foot level warrants
them in taking this step.

HORSE MEAT AND DOG MEAT.

seriousness the time-diShOnOred Joke about the
canine qualities of the DeufSCher aCurst Ac-
cOrding to the "Badische Landes- Zeitung," of
Mannheim. the new German tariff, with it's in
creased duties on imported meats and on cattle
and swine for meat has been accompanied by
increased prices for meats with IA marked
decrease in the number of swine slaughtered
and with a largely increased use OF horse
meat and dog meat for human food. There
was slight increase in the number OF cattle
and sheep butchered in the closing months OF
last year. though it was not more than pro-
pOriOnate TO the increase OF population, while
the number of hogs slaughtered In the last three
months of the year was 931. 500 smaller than

Ia those three months the consumption az

would apparently be the first TO suffer. Indeed,
IL is concerning the fate of the former that the
most anxiety is felt in this country.
In forecasting the future two things may well
be kept In mind. One is that the estimates
of the amount of water which normally flows
to the eastward of Goat Island vary cOnsld-
eTably. Mr.. Buck puts 1t at about One-tenth
Of the total while DIR. Clarke the State Cecil
ogist, thinks that il may be as much as one
fifth. For reasons which need not be rehearsed
il may be assumed that the second computa-
ton has better basis than the first. The other
fact TO be remembered is that the effect on
the American fall would not be exactly pro-
pOrtiOnate 70 the percentage of water taken
from the river. The head works of some OF
the Canadian companies are so situated that
the influence of their drafts will be felt only
on the Horseshoe FALL and it is the operation
OF these foreign companies mainly that is to
be feared The American companies are al
ready taking nearly much as their charters
permit whereas the Canadians are only just
beginning business. Ii would be foolish. how
ever. to underestimate the danger with which
the falls are thus threatened, or TO neglect
any measures that may properly be adopted

cUBA,s SECOND ADMINISTRATIONS.

Prophets of evil must be wOfully disappointed
in Cuba. They were once sure that an indepen-
dent Cuba was impossible, and that about seven
teen different sorts Of anarchy would prevail as
soon as the United States withdrew from the
island, making intervention, TecOnQuest and an
neXatiOn indispensable. But 1t was not so. On
the contrary, Cuba entered upon her self-govern-
ing career as smoothly as the United States itself
did, and has now maintained the even tenor Of
her way for four full years. Then a few months
ago evil Vaccinations were renewed. There was
certain to be fierce contest over the Presidential
election and any such thing as the peaceful be-
ginning Of a second administration was utterly
out of the question. But there was no trouble.
The election went off with no more disturbance
than attends one in the United States, and ON
Sunday last Tomas Estrada Palma was formally,
peacefully legitimateIy and auspiciOusly in
stalled for his second term as President Of the
Cuban Republic
1t is an achievement not at all unexpected to
those who are wont to take thoughtful rather
than prejudiced views of AFFAIRS but one upon
which, none the less, our Cuban neighbors are
entitled to cordial congratulatiOn. Cuba has
done well. That is the indispUtabe record of
the last four years, and there is in 1t an encour
aging promise that she will continue to do well.
There is in it, too. confirmation of the belief
which we have consistently cherished that or
derby and stable government, progress and good
repute in the fellowship OF nations are possible
to the states of Latin America as well as to any
others in the world. The Argentina of Rosas
and the Mexico of Santa Anna-we might add,
the Colombia Of NuneZ-seemed to give little
promise of such republics those are to-day.
But those republics as they are to-day give
much promise of what all their fellows may be
and, we confidently expect, will be.
Cuba. happily. entered upon her selfgOvern-
ing career at much later date and under much
more favorable auspices than the others. Her
time Of storm and stress was before she became
independent. In her transition period she had
the important aid of the neighboring republic
which for three-quarters of a century had con-
stantly felt deep interest and had more than
once exercised a decisive influence in her prog
ress. Thus the era of revolutions, dictatOrships
and chaos which has marked the history Of so
many Latin-American republics has been
avoided by her thus far and will, we may rea-
sOnaby hope, be permanently avoided The
Cuba which so long and so earnestly desired to
be free has shown herself for four years worthy
to be free, and should be able to prOlOng that
record indefinitely.
