The czar will send his brother, the Grand Duke Vladimir, and his uncle, the Grand Duke -Michael, with, an imposing suite. Italy will send the Duke of Asotajthe broth er of King Humbert.

All the principali ties of the German empire will be represented among others by the king and queen of Saxony the crown prince of "SVurtemberg, the Crown Princes of the houses of Baden,'' Hohenzollern 'and Baararia, and the Dukes of Saxe-Coburg and Saxe-Meiningen. The czar, as an additional evidence of his good will and pleasure on this festive occasion, has conferred the order of the "White Eagle on Count Herbert Bismarck. De j Lesseps is at Berlin to convey the insignia of the Legion of Honor to M. Herberte, the French embassa v. dor there, for the skill he has shown in his endeavors to maintain peace during the recent period of tension between Franco and Germany. All is peace, thanksgiving, hope fulness and congratulation. The Old Schloss in Berlin will have over 100 guests. All will be as sembled for the purpose of rejoic ing with the venerable emperor on the attainment of his ninetieth birthday. It will be a glorious and memorable day, not only in the life of the Emperor William, but in the political history of Eu rope. As the representatives of the nations rejoice with the em peror, they weld closer together the bonds of peace. SoME-time ago acting secreta ry Fairchild instructed the col lector of customs at Eastport, Me., that fresh fish caught in foreign waters in open boats of less than five tons burden, when caught or taken from rivers along shore or at sea by American citizens, are the product of American fisheries, and as such are entitled to free entry. Since then the department is informed, by an inspector at Eastport, that the privilege of fish ing in Canadian waters, which was enjoyed by Americans, have been denied them, and that sardine can ning -establishments, which wore formerly supplied by fish admitted free under such ruling, have been supplied in part by purchase from Canadian boats, manned by Cana dian fishermen, and then trans lerred to American boats, manned by American fishermen, by whom they were landed. It also appears that certain fishermen born on and residing on Canadian soil, but whose fathers at the time of their birth were Americanized citizens, are permitted as American citizens to land fish free oi duty under the" instructions referred to above. In a letter to the collector at Eastport, acting secretary Fairchild says that the fish caught by Canadian fishermen and transferred to American boats in the manner stated are not the product of American fisheries, and are, therefore, not entitled to free entry. Fish, however, caught and 'landed under .the rule laid down in the department instructions by American citizens, whether non resident or otherwise, are equally entitled to free entry, and it is im material that other governments may also claim these persons a subjects, provided that the status us fulfills the eondi United States law con-itizenship. . he bill for the redemption of J trade dollars -was nothing more iiorless than a steal," savs the Denver Journal of Commerce 'The president ought to have ve toed it. But as the bill was in the interest of the moneyed class, for whom the United "States govern ment exclusively exists, it was hardly to be expected that it would fail either of thevotes in congress and the senate, or of presidential endorsement. As t usual in like cases the bill was put through on the plea of the government keep ing faith with the public, and of protecting innocent purchasers. The truth is that the government had no faith to keep, and there were no innocent purchasers of trade dollars. Every trade dollar in this country was long ago bought by speculators at a discount of ten to twenty five per cent, for the express purpose of robbing the government treasury !' this iden tical trade-dollar redemption scheme." 1887 is the fiftieth anniversary of the Pope's ordination as a priest, as well as the queen's jubilee. It is rumored that there is to be an exchange of letters and presents between the Vatican and the court of St. James, which on one side will consist of a sumptuous mosaic, and on the other of a valuable mis sal. The Holv father and her majesty are personally acquainted. Thev met first at Brussels. Leo XIII was nuncio, and at a great banquet .given by the king in hon or of his royal visitor, Monsigneur Pecci, as the dean of the corps diplomatique, sat by her side and entered into a long and animated conversation with her. Later on he went over to London and there had an audienco with the qneen. The Pope often speaks of these interviews, which are the only in stances of such a meeting since the days of Henry VII. There are two kinds of men, says tke-Port Townsend Argus, for which a growing, thriving town has no use. The one is the man who is always crying down real estate and declares that, how ever reasonable the price it may be: "It is too high." "It isn't worth it," etc. The other is the one who gets hold of the very best ral es tate and putting a fanciful value on it holds it from all purchasers, waiting for the "big raise." Thai person drives away good enter prising people who would pay a fair, reasonable price for property. There is a happy medium which stimulates healthful growth and continually gains in value. "We believe there is no element that contributes more to the progress of a city than just the right price of real estate. The fourth section of the inter state commerce law gives the com missioners power to niodifv the long and short haul requirements of the bill. Upon the. action of the commissioners in this regard depends a considerable business interest in Portland, Astoria, Seat tle and Tacoma. A rigid inter pretation of the law will tend to cut us off from Eastern markets. An elastic construction of the fourth clause, while occasioning an advance over present rates, would not preclude further north Pacific shipments from Chicago, St. Paul and St. Louis by rail. Since 1867 twenty years ago, but one state, Colorado, has been admitted into the Union. During thesetwenty years, the population of the country has increased over twenty-live millions. Between 1830 and 1860, with less propor tionate increase, ten new states were admitted. The same cause led to former wholesale admission that now causes unjust repression and refusal political jealousy. Boston, "the hub of the uni verse," is becoming a Roman Catholic city. A variety of causes lead to this result. Probably the most conspicuous is that it is "not fashionable" for native American parents to have any children. In 18SG there were only 11,000 chil dren born in Boston. Of these over 7,000 were the children of Catholic parents. The Republican and Democratic parties are laboring hard to find some ground for issue in '88. The American, Labor and Prohibition parties are, meanwhile, attracting a good deal of attention. Among the political possibilities of 'SS are five presidential tickets and con siderable divergence from former political faith. An End to Bone Scraping. Edward Shepherd, of Ilarrisuurg, in., says: uHavinR received so much bene fit from Electric Bitters, 1 feel it my duty to let suffering humanity know it. Have had a running sore on my leg for eight years; my doctors told me I would have to have the bone scraped or leg amputated. I used, instead, thrw bot tles of Electric Bitters and seven boxes Buckleii's Arnica Salve, and my log i. now sound and well."
