The contemplated Improvement of Jer ome avenue, I. one of the necessities of the day, and should be undertaken by all means as soon as possible. The sooner the better. This Is the street connect ing with others which furnishes the only easy grade for a road lea ling to the water works and the Walluskl.

The pro posed improvement will make a contin uous good road leading out of the city, and it behooves all who are Interested to see that work Is commenced at once. Boat Builder Louis Martin is con structing a peculiar craft for I'lsh-rman Somes, who Is In the employ of Megler, at Brookfleld. The boat la a standard Columbia river fishing boat, but differ, from other. In that It i. fitted up with a .team propeller, which will obviate the necessity of boat pullers. The engine snd boiler, which are .mall and compact, were formerly used In Mr. Martin's launch, the Bertie. The engine Is two horse power and the boiler three, and will give the big fishing boat a speed of four miles per hour. Halls will also be used, and the owner expects to obtain the very beat results, beside utilising th time of a boat puller In helping him to handle the nets. By this method It la expected that on or two more drifts can be made on a tide than by th old way of pulling a boat by band. Tb Dalglty Iron Works are fitting th machinery In the boat.

IIAItHIHON IMMMKNDS CI.KVKI.ANI And Speaks Some Plain Words Anent Our I'lplomatlc and Consulnr Service. General Harrison write, of 'The Presi dential Office" In th March ladles' Home Journal, and hi comprehensive article is vutspoken and plain. He lake occasion to commend President Cleve land, movement toward establishing a more permanent consular service. Tin ex-preeldHtil says: "The need of a better consular survive has been getting a strong hold Uion th public mind. Tb practice has been to make freg,unt change In thee olilcie Indeed an almost complete change upon th coming In of sn administration of a different party. The dutlee of a consul relate almost wholly to our commerce with th country where he serve. , , . The recent movenin by Mr. Cleveland and In congress for a better uualliw-d and permanent consular force I to ih commended. "It I remarked that change In In borne administration In other countries, such a Kngland and France, do not In volve rhangt In Ihe minister or am bassadors or consul as they do with us. The KrtgMsh ambassador at Wash ington holds right on whether the Lib erals or Tories are In power. II repre snts his country, not a iwrty, and car ries out th Instructions from Ihe home government loyally He Is never heard to make speeches attacking Ihe policy of the opposing party-or criticising his own people. IVrhaps one of Ihe chief difficulties in our iftling a pcrmsnent dlplomatolc and consular service grow out of the fa-! that the tariff iu.-a-lon I. on- that Is alwtys acute In our politic, and the reiKirt of our consul, naturally take on the views held by th'm upon this question. We cannot have a per manent diplomatic and consular set vice home If they are to ' aired clsed abroad then II follow 1 that ih.-y must be In harmony with the nifty In 1 power at home."
