The Clark investigation, which caused the Senate Com-mittee on Elections to report that Clark, of Montana, wasnot entitled to a seat in the Senate, which he spent some-thing likea quarter of a million dollars to get, had the im-mediate effect of causing a resolution to' be passed in theHouse, with only fifteen adverse votes, proposing a consti-tutional amendmeut for the election of United States Sena-tors by direct vote of the people.

.\u25a0 Spain's attempt to retain three islands on the'outskirtsof the Philippine group was a total failure.

CONCLAVE ADJOURNS. A SPECIAL MEETING!

Fresno Republican: -"I want nothing to do with that*nation of robbers .and murderers, unless it be to join theother nations. of the earth in a- notice to England that she

..must close her career of piracy, must pull down her blackflag, and withdraw her armed forces from all her colonies

"and allow them to be free."'So says Pettigrew,;the hysterical, speaking of England,

the only nation' on earth whose colonies are already free.One can imagine the amusement with which this fervid offer-of revolutionary assistance would be read in Canada, Aus-tralia, or by any. intelligent resident of any English colonyin the world. Itis high time that such nonsense ceased toplay its role in American political discussiou. England isnot America; her ways are not as our ways, her ideals not asour ideals, and we think, and doubtless rightly think, thatour ways and ideals are far better. But England is uot thearch-fiend, the international ogre. On the contrary, Englandis the most enlightened nation in the world, barring our own,and all the traditions that make us great have their begin-ning far back in English history. English colonial govern-

ment is the. freest and fairest and the only disinterestedcolonial government in the world. English civilization, inits various developments, is the one dominant fact in theworld to-day, and the best fact. Every intelligent 'man inthe United States knows these things, including the politicianswho do the loudest proclaiming of the contrary assertion, andit would be the part of justice as well as dignity to recognizethe truth.

England has faults enough and crimes enough, as whatnation has not? There can be no more objection to an in-telligent statement of these faults than to an intelligentrecognition of the services to civilization which they havemarred but not vitiated.

-But there is no excuse of truth

and there ought to be no pretext of public acclaim for making

political capital out of these hysterical denunciations ofEngland as a "nation of robbers and murderers."

ANGLOPHOBIC HYSTERIA.

One of the exhibits' at the Paris Exposition by the De-partment of Agriculture of our Government, shows the reason

and the wherefore of the fact that on a bad road, an ordinaryAmerican country road, it takes twenty horses to draw an

eleven ton load; on a good road one horse draws the same loadas easily as did the twenty horses in the other case. Whatfolly,to go to Paris with such an exhibition when it oughtto be placed on view in every county ,in the home laud.

What we want is proof of the pudding right here, and like-wise proof to convict the minds of our own people that theroad which enables a load to be moved most swiftly with leastpower, is cheaper than olie that demands most power to move

the least, load. Some day the American, people will awakenfully to the fact that they are paying a thousand per cent,

more for their bad roads. Until that awakening comes we

willcontinue to go to mill with the stone in one cud of thebag.— Record-Union. At11 o'clock we landed at Juneau in

From Jtmean. \u25a0 j^| \ ##JUNEAU^AlaskarApril 20, 1900?

•Dear Ledger: «*\u25a0 <>'--Iwrote you last from Seattle just

before the steamer sailed. Itwas inter-esting to watch the hurry and confusionof getting ready to sail, especially theloading of 310 sheep and seventy-twofat cattle. The sheep gave no trouble,as one was pulled downthe gangway bythe horns and the rest allfollowed, butthe cattle were frightened by the lights,the crowd and the general strangenessofthe situation, and stampeded throughthe warehouse and it was only by thevehement and wholesale profanity"ofthe drivers and deckhands that finallythey were safely housed on board. Weretired before the ship sailed and whenwe awoke the ship bad crossed PugetSound, called at Port Townsend andVictoria, and was Inthe Gulfof Georgia.

Our boat, tho steamship "City ofSeattle," is the finest vessel on thesewaters. Her state-rooms are large, hertable excellent and the officers court-eous gentlemem. We had 184 passen-ger besides the live stock and a largeamount of freight. About 10 o'clockwe reached Vancouver, the rival ofVictoria, these two towns being thechief cities ofBritish Columbia. Hav-ing two hours to stay we went ashoreto see the place. There are a greatmany elegant buildings and finebusinessblocks and the general air of a thrivingcity. We wore surprised to^ noticeseveral blocks not built upon, 'but de-voted entirely to storing nursery stock.On looking more closely, however, wediscovered that the supposed trees andplants were nothing but sprouts grow-ing luxuriantlyaround stumps of latelycut trees. Soon the 10 minute whistlesounded and in a short time we wereout of the harbor and steaming north-ward. This is an ideal trip for grandand beautiful scenery. ;On either sidethe shores deeply indented with baysand narrow gorges, are covered withpine, spruce and hemlock from thewater's edge to the tops of the mount-ains which rise abruptly several thous-and feet and stillwear their winter capsof snow. Littleislands from a few feetto several miles inextent, are commonand are covered like the shores. Thewater is a delicate green and the swellof the ocean is not noticeable here.Wednesday night, however, whilecrossing the open channel north of Van-couver Island we were treated to.arock-a-bye that was anything but pleas-ant. The Seattle is a vessel of lightdraft and rolls in a very unpleasantmanner in a heavy swell. We werepast the disagreeable place in a fewhours and suffered no inconveniencefromseasickness. Thursday was a dayof wierd enchantment, ever pressingnorthward through the narrow straitswhere the solitude is almost oppressive.One or two Indian villages and a steam-er going south were the only signs ofhuman life seen from the ship. Fridaymorning before day break we stoppedat Ketchican, a new mining town.After lunch the captain invited five ofus into the pilot house while passingWrangle Narrows. This is the mostdangerous part of the trip. Manycap-tains willnot attempt the passage ex-cept at high water. The tide was nowat the low point, but our captain wasbrave and know his work, and did notwish to injure his record forquick trips.Inmany places the channel was hardlytwice the vessel's width and verycrooked.' The rocky shores gave evi-dence of what might lie just beneaththe surface of the water. Itwas a newand exciting experience, jFour strongmen held the wheel and the rest of usheld our breath. The captain watchedthe channel, givinghis orders ina low,distinct tone that was instantly repeatedby the chief helmsman, and the wheelwhirledrapidly around, now this way,now that, as the. great ship turned,balanced, courtesied, swung right andleft withthe stately grace of a belle ina quadrille. Twenty-two miles of thisthrilling*experience and we again camointo the open sound where wo had ourfirst view of glaciers and icebergs. .TheAlaskan cedar is now added to the for-estry list. \u25a0 .

Under the head of "Reports of Com-mittees," Mr. Richard Webb made dueIreport of his attendance at tho County|Central Committee meeting of the 26thjinstant, in behalf of the club, result-ing in tho election of a delegate fromthis township to the State Conventionat Sacramento, May 15th, being left tothe club and that the delegate-at-largeibe selected by the presidents of the!various Republican Clubs of the county.Mr. Webb's report was unanimouslyapproved, and the club thereuponprociieded to elect a delegate to theState Convention as follows: RichardWebb, R. J. Adams, James E. Dye,S. G. Spagnoli and P. Bufflngton werein turn nominated for the distin-guished honor, but neither one ofthese gentlemen could devote the timeto the work, and their names' weredropped. Mr. Will A. Newcum:thensaid he would'go, and he was duly andunanimously elected. It was also de-cided that President Herrick, when inconference with the presidents of thevarious Republican Clubs, urge thenomination of Judge John F. Davis fordclegate-at-large.

DOCUMENTS.RECORDED.

Senator Fairbanks knows the politics of Indiana as

few men do, and how much he thinks of the alleged Republi-can revolt inthat State, which is so big in the columns of theanti-Republican press aud so hard to find by those on theground, may be judged by his having said of the politicaloutlook. "The administration stands in higher favor todaythan ever before, and will undoubtedly be sustained by thepeople, who are not prepared to check, interrupt, or reverse

the present prosperous condition of affairs. It is not possiblethat the people willrepeat the mistake of1892. The Repub-

lican party has redeemed the principal pledges made in 1896,and has brought prosperity to all classes of our people. Weare quite ready to meet our opponents in the. campaign." Ofthe Porto Rico tariff, now a law, the alleged cause of thealleged Republican revolt, Senator Fairbanks said: '.'lt isbased upon proper principles and willjustify itself. My in-forinationshows that a very stroug current in its favor issetting in, and as it becomes better understood the criticismwilldecrease."

Bryan's followers are not happy. The cause of theirgrowing uneasiness can be safely attributed to Perry Bel-mont's recent appearance in Washington as one of Dewey'sfinancial backers. The report that Boss Croker, who is on

the eve ofdeparture from Europe for this county, has madea deal with ex-Senator Hillby which itis hoped to send theNew York delegates uninstructed to the Kansas City conven-tion, is also gall'^and bitterness to the Bryan would-be Presi-

dent makers. They are afraid that Dewey will tumble their

idol into the mire. John McLean's success in underminingBryan. sentiment in Ohio, is also casting its shadow ofgloom,and Admiral Dewey's statement of his position on publicquestions caps the climax and they turn aside and weep.
