United States, Russia asserted and
exercised an exclusive right to the
seal fisheries in Behring sea; that
Great Britain, not having objected
to such exercise of exclusive right
must be regarded as having assent
to the same; that Behring sea was
not inciuuea in me pnrase xraciii,
ocean as used in the treaty of 1825
between Great Britain and Russia;
that all the nshts or ltussia in re-

ring sea east ot of the water bound-
arv esiaonsneu ov uie treaty 01
I il. - 1 L-- C
March 30th, 18G7, passed unim
paired to the United States under
that treaty; the United States has
such property and interest in the
Alaskan seal herd as to justify the
employment upon the high seas of
means reasonably necessary to pre
vent the destruction of the herd;
that compensation should be made
Co the United States by Great
Britain by tho payment of the
Amount of the losses of lire United
States, and that in case it should
be considered that the United
States has the full property or pro
perty interest asserted by it, it
should then be decreed to be the
international duty of Great Britain
to-concur with the United States
in the adoption and enforcement
against the citizens ot either na
tion of such regulations, to be de
signed and prescribed by the arbi
trators, as will effectually prohibit
and prevent the capture anywhere
longing to the Alaskan herd.
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

' 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. , - . :-- - -

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

of developing the same on a large
scale.- There' millions in that
project, both for the company and
the country it will affect.

There occured a freak of the fire
fiend nearMt. Scott when the fine
residence of John Matz, at Tobas
co, was partially destroyed by fire
Saturday, evening during the ab
sence of the family. It appears
that a lamp must have exploded
but t he fire did not get on the out
side of the house. The rooms were
tight and there was no draught.
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.
