Great Britain starts from the claim that Behring sea is an open sea in which all nations of the world have the right to navigate and fish, and that ihe right cannot be taken away or restricted by the mere declaration of any one or more nations; that no mere non user or absence of exercise has any effect upon the rights of nations in the open sea, and that in the exercise of these rights the subjects and vessels of various nations nav igated and traded in that sea with out interference or control by Rus sia down to the year 1821. The Russian ukase of that year at tempting to close the sea, was the ease continues, protested against by the United States and Great Britain, and in the year.;i824-25 Russia withdrew her pretension and concluded treaties with the United States and Great Britain, which recognized the rights of the citizens of both countries to navi gate and fish in' the non-territorial waters of the sea. From the date of those treaties to the time of the cession of Alaska, the case adds, the right to navigate, trade and iish in the non territorial waters of Ihe sea was recognized; the cession et Alaska did not alter the rights of other nations in the sea and, in fact, no attempt to interfere with those rights was made until the VAO 1 0? ' Thk finding of the boats of the White Star steamer Naronic leaves ery little doubt remaining that this vessel has gone to the bot 'tom. The actual fate of the steamer may never be known, but the theory generally advanced is .!. i. l n:.i.i m. tiui- one una cumuvHi wuii uue i the large number of abandoned 6hips that are known to be floating about, and gone down with many precious lives. These renegade wrecks are almost all loaded with lumber and I hey keep afloat for a long time. Floating icebergs are another danger which constantly menace shipping, and no one will probably ever know whether these, or a dereliet, or a broken shaft, or some other accident, sealed the fate of the good ship Naronic. Ik the evolutions of recollections' throughout the state Richardson, the Rice Hill "hero," is turning out to be quite a hydra-headed scoundrel, Astoria people at once recognized his phiz as that of a persistent house burner of that city, some montns ago; and now a Salem, woman has spotted him as a figurer ia the terrible Lake La bish train wreck of a couple of years ago, . The old saw, "murder will out" may have taken a pecu liar turn in furnishing foxy Mr. Richardson the ropetohang himself . with. , - . :-- - - fihildren Cry for Pitchers Casttw'a. The opening day for the world's fair draws near. . The railroads have so far come to no arrange ment as to special rates, and their reluctance in considering matters to that end indicates that no gen eral scale will be decided upon. It may be that no material reduc tion will le made by mutual agree ment, but the season can hardly pass without a cut rate war that may be carried to disastrous lengths on the part of the railroads, and have a tendency to run them down to where efficient and com fortable carrying service will be impossible with them. There is a medium basis which would be fair and satisfactory to tho public. People could be carried to the lair and back in decent shape at such rates. Below that basis the railroads would either be ridden to demoralization, or the service they must furnish would be worse than poverty stricken. Meantime the little repartee going on be tween Chicago people and the railroads, to an outsideris some what interesting. The former criticises the latter waspishly for not making low rates. The roads retort that the Chicago c'enizens make no rates for visitors that are not calculated to "hog" every cent they can got, and still they expect the roads to reduce fares to pal try rates to allure larger crowds into the "hoggin";" precincts of Chicago. That's about the size of it, by the way. Heub are some census facts that may be of interest to American workmen: In the decade of 1880 and 1S90 more than half the Ital ian immigrants, nearly 60 per cent of the Hungarians, 35 per ceut of the Austrians and Bohemians, 40 per cent of the Irish, 20 per cent of the English, 18 per cent of the Germans and 10 per cent of the Scandinavians who came to this country during that decade re turned to their native lands. 'Pi l e 1 : l iucse peupie ui uuuise, Uiu iiui come here to become citizens, but to earn a small capital and carry their savings home with them. In their native countries a compara tively small sum constitutes a com petence, and they acquire it not by demanding and receiving Ameri can wages, but by living in filth and squalor, saving every dollar that they earn and contributing nothing tothe support of prosperity of the country that enriches them. What a funny figure our "protection" sys tern has cut in the light of such work as that. A touching episode in the world's great drama is noted in the death of Nellie, daughter of Sena tor Vilas of Wisconsin, while her father was away on a fishing tour in Florida and could, not be reac Il ea, .bora man logo fishing is one of the most casual of incidents. To return and unexpectedly find a dessolate void in Ihe family circle, and a new grave embracing in its dread folds the form of a be loved child, must be an incident to impress the heart with a pain that 13 not blotted out of the memory while memory lives. When Russia was the owner of Alaska her claims upon the Beh ring sea were well established and duly recognized by the powers tak ing any interest in those water?. That was before American enter prise and capital had developed the seal resources into a munificent line of commerce. Now Russia sees the matter in a different light. If the United States shall be de feated in the arbitration now going on, Russian influence will be main ly accountable for it. , "Tub entrance into Portland har bor of a ship direct from Antwerp, discharging in part at Redondo, Cal., and passing Astoria unchal lenged, with the blood red signal of danger written by our consul across the face of her register, is an outrageous menace to the health and safety ot our community and the people of this coast," very cor rectly asserts the Portland Wel come. An important question if J where was that pampered "health officer" down at the mouth of the river abont this time?- Last year we used in this coun try 149,482 tons of European beet sugar at a cost of probably $12, 000,003, which we could just as well have made at home. j On the 1st day of July next South Carolina takes the saloon business under government, di rections. All retail establish ments such as saloons and bar rooms will be in the possession of the state, and no private individual can carry on the business. With out further information as to the details of the law, what opinion can one form on such a novel and radical system as is suggested by the bare statement so far having reached remote parts of the coun try? We can figure it only from an alogy. Evidently the "bar keepers" must be appointees of the state government. Will they be under -civil service reform" regulations, or will they be simply another branch of beneficiaries added to the "spoils" system? It is gener ally understood that there is noth ing more potent in politics than the saloon influence. If that be true, what a powerful leverage it may be made, as a state institu tion, for the party that has the ap pointing power. It may be that bar-keepers" will be more trust: worthy and exemplary for the commonwealth than they would in private station, seeing that a "public office is a public trust," but the chances'are, if the success of a political party was in any way connected with it, such party would be very likely to win honor or no honor.- Still, this is speculation in the dark. It may be that the South Carolina law, in its true; inwardness, is all right, re spectable and judicious. Yet it seems that there is, above all, a practical figure possible to be drawn under it which can hardly harmonize with ordinary moral logic. If a man, in a drunken freak should commit some crime, go to the penitentiary, and after wards be pardoned, the same hand that signed the pardon would be the one that bought the whisky and sent it out on its mission of crime, and that would be none other than the hand of the man the people of the state had chosen to be their governor. As a mat ter of reciprocity that would be compatible enough, but in the light of righteous ethics what sort of a figure would it cut in the name of civilized government, any way? What is regarded by democrats as a very extraordinary ruling has just been made by the postoffice department. It is that fourth class postmasters are supposed to be appointed for a term of lour years, and they are permitted to serve out their terms. From time immemorial fourth class post masters were simply appointed to serve at the discretion of the department. A Great, scheme is on foot in which the Union Pacific company appears to be preparing to build into the midst of the rich coal beds of iheNehalem country between the lower Columbia river and Til lamook, with the evident intention of developing the same on a large scale.- There' millions in that project, both for the company and the country it will affect. Business failures in the United States during the past three months, as reported to Bradstreets, number 3. 069, a smaller total, with one exception, than has been reported for eleven years.

All the furniture in the room was burned or charred and the fire ex tinguished itself. When Mr. Matz returned and opened the door he found the inside of his house a blackened ruin. His damage is several thousand dollars. CHOLEKINE IX PENNSYLVANIA.
