Sharp Superintendent of Public Schools. . .Troy Shelley Coroner William MicheU The following, from the" Lawrence county, Mo., Herald presents a woeful contrast to this land of sunshine and flowers on this blessed ere of Saint Patrick's day in the inornin. "March has-been having her own way for the past 86 hours. The ' wintry gale which has been prevailing has been the worst of the season, not so much from the in tense cold but from the piercing, cutting winds. In exposed places the . ther mometer has reached 10 degrees above isero, a very low mark for this time of . the year. Yesterday it was almost im possible for women to venture abroad on the streets. Many tried it for a time, but were simply compelled to epread their wings and float wherever the wind listed. Today it is even worse. The lion has knocked the lamb clear out of the ring. Many swinging signs were blown down last night and in one or two CB6es plate glass doors were broken. Those who are good judges say that the wind was blowing at the rate of 50 miles per hour." We cannot too earnestly urge upon the readers of the Chroxjclk the imperative necessity that exists for sending to the county conventions only such delegates as can be relied on to support men for legislature offices who are known to be true friends of the dalles portage and an open river. Everything depends upon the primaries and if the masses of the people stay away from them, and allow them to bejrunjby the political bosses, we shall have just such a set of legislators as we had two years ago, two of whom, intentionally or otherwise, helped to defeat a appropriation of $400,000 for the dalles portage. . Before this one question of a portage every other is insignificant and unimportant, and the success of the scheme depends upon the action of the primaries more than .upon anything else. Senator Hill, who seems to be much more anxious to push his candidacy for the White house than he is to 'serve his constituents in the United States' sen ate made a speech the other day at Roanoke, Va., in which he said that "Today we have not a republican official from one end of the state to the other, lected by the people at large." He . assured his hearers that they had seen "the last, in his judgement, of a republi- can legislature in the Empire state. Governor Pennoyer says he will not attend the Democratic state convention - of his party. He did not attend it four years ago and will not now for 'the '-.reason that he does not believe that tipublic officials should interfere, even by stheir presence, with delegate conventions "fresh from the body of the people. So ; says the Salem Journal. This is a season of political activity and good men in all parties ought to use their best influence to save the countiy from the designs of selfseeking and unprincipled politicians. . t Keclpioelty With France.

' Tie! sera mm the Chinese Ease are r. "Until the present generation our min isters have never been received by the emperor in person. The Chinese hare fought against such receptions as sacri legious. In 1873. however, the foreign ministers forced the emperor to receive them, and in 1891 the new emperor gav his first reception to the foreign diplo mats. - He probably will hare to do this many times in the future. I have re ceived letter from China describing this reception and saying that it had a great influence on the Chinese at Peking. It shows the people that these so called "tribute bearers" are worthy of notice and makes them respect our ministers. - The last emperor wanted the diplo mats to go down on their knees and bump their heads against the floor nine times in front of the emperor, as the Chinese do, but they refused to do this, and no attempt was made to demand this on the present occasion. The Chi nese idea is to make the foreign minis ters, as far as possible, contemptible in the eyes of the people, and it was four months before the audience of 1878 could be arranged. Frank O. Carpenter in National Tribune.
