ANNOUNCEMENT

H.H. Kohlsaat again assumed control
of The litter Ocean after a lapse Of
eighteen years during which time
there have been several changes Of
management. In his salutatcry he
says:
Naturally the readers Of this paper
constitute it's treasury of good will and
may expect something more than this
brief announcement. and they are as
sured:
The Inter Ocean will be a newspaper
In everysense Of the word, printing all
the news that should tie printed in a
family newspaper.
The opinions Of the editor will ap-
pear only on the editorial page, where
they belong.
The Inter Ocean will be Republican,
because it believes in the principles
of the Republican party. respects its
traditions. revers the memory of its
great leaders, and sincerely believes
that this great party has not outlived
its usefulness. and that. under the
leadership of patriotic, unselfish, men,
it will still be the party of progress
and sanity.
The Inter Ocean will be Independent.
in its Republicanism and will vigor-
ously oppose the leadership oil political
spoilsmenp or representatives Of special
interests. or Of demagogues or self
seekers ltiNahELJ
It's not necessary to- scuttle the r.
publican ship to rid it OF some of Il
unsavory crew who have in the past
ten years exercised too much control
In its management.
For more than half a century the
Republican party has been carrying tn
banners Of true progress. In national
history its record Is glorious one
At Gettysburg it stood with Lincoln
and battled for the Union; with Gran
it stood for peace, the healing of se
tional wounds and the RESUMPTION

the way for the adoption of the
merit principle in the civil service If

into law during the administration of
President Arthur and consecrated by
the blood of the martyred Garfield:
with the beloved Mckinley it killed

to doubt but the men will walk out and production will he suspended for an indefinite time. The situation however, is not one that warrants extreme measures on either side. and there still remains hope of d compar- atiVely early settlement. The British strike has been fiasco from every point of view Both sides have suf- fered enormous losses and the public has had to endure serious incon- venience and suffering. The end of that struggle is close at hand. and it's moral effect will be discouraging to any similar movement here The lesson of the British coal strike is that such disputes cannot be settled the end reason. discussion and arhi- tration will prove much more advan- tageous to both capital and labor than wasteful struggles: not to speak of the injury to long suffer- ing public that is growing impatient over such unnecessary conflicts.
 \ few stocks such as R0ding. |. S Steel Union Pacific and South ern Pacific have shown rises in the neighborhood of about 10 points. The great bulk of the market. however. has not risen more than about or 6 points above the low prices of 1912. and in many cases even less. This is not a very marked advance and in view of the broadening ac- tivity of the market and the decided ly better undertone it would not be surprising if the upward movement was extended to hitherto neglected stocks. At periods there have been indications of realizing on the larger advances. and the prospect of a cdal strike increases the disposition to take profits on the theory that when that truggle begins the market may show some reaction. Apart from the latter element the market is in very healthy and promising condition, and the outlook is for continued activity on 2 rising scale. Investors are be- ginning tO show more confidence. and d better demand is reported for high class securities in general The disbursements on April l are esti-
 
 will naturally further stimulate the investment market
 In the monetary situation there is little change. Some stringency is usually expected in anticiuation of the April settlements. but this is not serious matter The expected ac- tivity of business and the widening of stock Exchange operations will cause better demand for funds which in connection with decreased bank reserves will operate against the extremely low rates for money which have prevailed for some months past. In the European markets there is more or less firmness. so that foreign borrowings in this market still continue upon a liberal scale The tension at Berlin and Paris has partially subsided The satisfactory condition of our foreign trade and our large excess of exports continue to strengthen our credit position abroad and tend to put this market in an advantageous position in event of activity here making greater de- | mands upon our monetary resources | than at present expected. Thus far | the advance has been encouraged by | strong interests who fOresaW the inn l proving conditions and promptly took | advantage of them As said above. ! there is no reason to suppose that the | rise has exhausted itself. considering

On their arrival at Liverpool, Sir Edward
Carson. Lord Londonderry and Lord Charles
Beresford received en- almost unprecedented
reception from one hundred thousand sym
pathisers, mostly of the working classes. The
horses were taken from their carriage, which
was then drawn to the Conservative Club.
After breakfast they addressed crowds from
the balcony, reciting the recent Incidents at
Belfast.
AS an example of Unionist Comment, the
"Morning Post" says the Government is I'M
able any longer to delude itself with the
idea that listers threats will not be fulfilled,
and therefore it should be prepared to see
the flames of civil war lighted in the event
of Home Rule being enacted. The Liberal
press continues TO belittle the incidents, the
Daily Chronicle" saying that the Uuionist
hot heads nave shouted themselves hoarse
without anybody being much the worse, and
that during the interval before HOME Rule
is enacted, an opportunity will be given for
their blood to cool and allow their common
sense to assert itself. The "Daily News
says the attempt to arouse a reaction on the
British side of the channel is a failure, aud
that the drama was prolonged until the
audience yawned and departed amused at
the wooden guns and royal salutes to rebel
leaders, but otherwise uninterested.
At New York, Mr.. William Redmond M. P.
for East Mare, addressed an enthusiastic au-
dience, who subscribed ten thousand dollars
upon the spot. He promised the enactment
of Home Rule before Christmas, and predict
ed the satisfaction of half of Ulster, and ac-
c~eptance by the rest without disturbance.
