A few moments’ pause to consider the work that has al ready been done, and to contemplate what is planned for the future, together with that which is well under way, leads to the inevitable conclusion that a halt be where unity may continue in unlimited expenditure for the cutting away of hills, and not feel the expense, any more must made some No comm than a private individual of limited means may lavish improve ments limit, bankruptcy. Specious economists may argue that the money thus spent all comes back into circulation, and is kept moving from one to the other, but the existing conditions refute this theory en tirely. As a matter of fact, the man who owns a little home and is compelled to practically pay for it a second time when he mects his regrade assessments, must of necessity find new means of economy. He has to spend less for clothes, food and the other necessities, the barter in which constitutes trade. How many of these are there in Seattle it would be rash to guess, but they are many, and the falling off of their pur chases has a very serious effect on the whole business sit uation. In not a few instances, actual confiscation of property has been the result, and the mania for easier grades has brought poverty to those who had established themselves in comfort able competency. Much might be written on the individual injustices, and even downright w but this is tscless—as the majority's rights leave no room for the minority’s wrongs. But it is now evident to many, and muist soon be evident to all, that the present rec not continue without serious consequences. as we are going until we have a perfectly level city, but a good Thany of us will live our lives in debt and leave the succeed- ing generation a legacy for which they will not thank us.

The mis 2 | itizens of Seattle} | hap was unattended by any stunning calamity, that would} focus attention on the loss of life, and leaves us free to con- sider it in an academic frame of mind. The Humboldt went aground on fog-shrouded rocks, in the darkest hours of the morning. In a few moments the wireless operators in Seattle and Victoria received the news, | with the assurance that all was well with those on board, and. tugs were dispatched to render assistance. It was simplicity itself, and yet we have but to compare the wreck of yesterday | 71 with those of but a few years back to realize the anxiety and dread we were spared. And the gain in relief and confidence to the friends and relatives on shore is not comparable to the sensations of those on board, who knew that their predicament was made known instantly where assistance was available. A few years ago the Humboldt could have gone on the rocks and nothing would have been known of it for many hours, or even a day. She would have been noted late at her points of call, and, after a teasonable time, a search would have been made. By the time the searching vessels left, the wildest ) rumors would have been afloat, to try the ‘hearts of those who! were waiting for news. On board! hope and despair would vie with each other ior hours, according to temperament, and the amount of misery engendered would be so great that evens the joy of a safe delivery could not entirely obliterate it All this was eliminated yesterday. The full extent of the accident was known in a few seconds definitely, as if it had happened at Second and Pike, island miles away from anywhere, instead of on an uninhabited to the utiliza tion of forces and laws which man only knows exists and does not understand. due entirely Mr. Mullin, who took # co-ed to the football game, was not im. mersed a second time in the lake yesterday, and the cause of higher education, which was baited a few days, is now marching ever on ward and upward to those lofty realms, ete. ete., ete.
