Mr. Ballinger no doubt feared tho

BEACHCOMBERS
' PACIFIC.
All along the numerous bay. and
inlets, at the mouths of the great
rivers, nnd on the shores of many of
the islands of Washington and Brit
ish Columbia lives a class of men and
a omen 1 have never seen elsewhere
on the American continent, says Bon-
rycastle Dale, in the March Wide
World Magazine. These people are
of all nationalities, yet not of any,
In many cases, Hound they were not
naturalized citizens of either Canada
or the United States. Their position
is the result of ignorance lazziness,
or drunkenness; in rare Teases they
ore simply vicious—determined to
get a good living in the easiest pos
sible way suui with il»e least rsk of
being found out when they break iii
law. They are the* beach-combers,
the water-gipsies of the Pacific.
The homes of these strange men
lie everywhere. Perhaps they form
.i collection of houses on a tiny is
land; elsewhere you may see a cabin
hung with wildfowl, or you may
through the woods, where every tree
teems to have a dog chained at Its
foot. One deserted town wo saw
was a great place for plunder—church
school-house, nnd homo nil stood de
serted, because the coal searn “pinch
el out." The beachcombers tha*
pass in the night up and down the
neighboring waters of the gulf looted
many useful objects in this abandon
ed village.
When you come to. the food supply
of this host of men, women nnd chib
dren you strike an interesting sub
ject. There seems to bo nothing
tint B&ims, flies, or wnrlks but it
•od for tho beachcomber’s pot. Tho
frogs from the dyked land-sloughs,
the sea-eggs from the low-tide rocks,
and the eggs of the wild fowl from
the crumbling ledges of the breeding-
yrounds— alt are welcome. Devil-fish
and crabs, whnlcsteak nnd shark'i
fins, dulse and Inver from the rocks,
herring-spawn from the sea-grasses,
spawning snlnion in all conditions of
frayed fins nnd fungus-lnden bodies,
codfish and halibut from tho ledges
«hero the whipcord-Uke kelp growi
claf and mussel ntid cockle, snail and
periwinkle nnd limpet, wildfowl old
anl gnmo-blrds young, and eggs of
game-birds in season and out of sea
son-such is their bill of fare.
At time rare fishes come ashore—
the ribbon-fish for Instance, a thin
slice of a creature seven feet long,
yet not as thick as tho hand. Soa
parrots and grebe; anything every
thing that can bo turned Into food oi
dollars finds Its way sooner or later
beneath the roofs of tho old shacks
of these strange people.
Iaitcr comes the regular steamer
and the Iron horse. Honest agricul
turists crowd down to tho sen-edge,
pre-empting the shores on which tho
beachcombers dwell. Then begins a
battle, stubbornly fought by the squat
ter, lawfully by the farmer. In tho
end the latter wins, but not always
before some house or barn erected
ntter years or montliB of patient la
bor, goes up In smoke. A very few
years of scml-clvillzntion drive the

beachcombers to yet more distant
shores. In time even these will be

The consistency of Mr. Sheehan the
Tammany candidate who Is holding
ur the election of a United States
senator In New York on the ground
that he is the “regular” nominee of
the caucus, is about as clear and pel
lucid as the bottom of an oil tank.
Sheehan bolted Bryan and the Chica
go platform in 1896. Now he fulmi
nates against the New York Demo
crats who have sufficient independen
ce to stand aloof from the dictations
of Boss Murphy. Persnal Interest,
as well as politics, is potent In point
ing the direction of the weather vane
oi logic.
