BRANDING SEALS.
When the United States govern
ment takes a corporation unier its
fostering care, there are no lengths
to which it will not go to look after
its interests. This is illustrated in
its dealings with the Union and Cen
tral Pacific railroads, and, perhaps,
more forcibly shown in the matter of
the Alaska Commercial Co. For
years it has patroled the northwest
seas, it has kept American citizens
off them, has been on the verge of
war with EnglarTd, and has now a
big bill of damages to pay for hold
ing up Canadian vessels, all in the
interests of this Commercial Co., to
which it turned over the seal herds of
Alaskan waters.
The company has made millions,
but still the government is not satis
fied, but seeking where it might do
more for this piratical coloration,
has undertaken to brand the female
seals so that the employes of the com
pany could tell at a glance the sex
of the seals they were pursuing.
This would irake it much more con
venient for the company and might
put off the day when the extermina
tion of the seals is an accomplished
fact.
Professor David Starr Jordan has
jnst returned from Behring sea,
whither he went with a branding
ircn and a fat salary, paid by the
people, to make the struggle for ex
istence of the Alaska Commercial Co.
somewhat less bard.
Roswell P. Flower, ex-governor of
New York, delivered an address be
fore the New York State Grange
recently, in which he took the ground
that "trusts' were a blessing to the
people, and "combines" the rock
upon which all prosperity is built.
The ex-governor's views can hardly
be called impartial, since he is inter
ested in a few trusts and combines to
a considerable extent. For instance,
he is a stockholder and director in
the Brooklyn Heights Railway Com
pany, the Kingston & Pembroke
Railroad, Danbury and Norfolk
Railroad, Folger-Hammond Gold
Mine Co., Chicago Gas Co., Walker
Manufacturing Co., and, it is said,
"there are others." It is not at all
astonishing, therefore, that Flower,
making money out of these combina
tions, should consider them a blessing
to him and should fail to see how
any trust or combination that put
money in his pocket was not a good
thing for the people, especially as he
placed his hand on his heart and
smiled down on his audience as he
remarked, "We are the people."
At the convention of Negroes at
Perry, Indian Territory, strong reso
lutions were passed demanding that
congress grant pensions to ex-slaves,
their wives and children. They de
clared that they Lad been in slavery
240 years, and they demand heavy
pensions. As the war which took
the Negroes out of slavery cost the
people in the neighborhood of $4,
000,000,000, or about $1000 for each
Negro freed, and besides this the life
of one white man for every five Ne
groes in the United Slates, the infer
ence would be that the Negro had
already received enough, without de
manding that the descendants of the
soldiers who gave him his freedom
should be taxed to leward him for
furnishing the opportunity.
General Weyler cables to the New
York World to the effect that Evan
geljna Cisneros has not yet been
tried, and consequently no sentence
has been passed or approved by bini.
And then this butcher of women and
children adds : "I answer the World
with the frankness and truth that
characterizes all my acts." The last
statement makes it perfectly plain
that the World's scoop on that in
formation was not worth what it
cost. Weyler, who had a war-in
formation factory as a part, and most
formidable part, cf his army, talking
about frankness and truth, will cause
old Munchausen to hunt up Ananias
on the other side of the Styx that
they may weep together.
In discussing the matter of federal
appointments in this state, the Pen
dleton Tribune says: "In the dis
tribution ot federal places of any lm
portance in the past nothing of any
importance has ever fallen to any one
who lived further east in Oregon
than The Dalles." Without going
into the past, we call our contemp
orarv's attention to the fact that the
present U. S. marshal is from its own
tOWD.
Associate Justice Stephen J. Field,
of the United States supreme court,
has now been on the bench longer
than Chief Justice Marshall, having
been appointed by Lincoln in 1863.
Justice Fields still hangs on to his
position, saying he prefers tJ wear
out rather than rust out. This is
nice for Fields, but tough on the
country, which needs the services of
a live man, rather than a moribund
telic.

Remarkable Care of Chronic Diarrhoea.
In 1862, when I served my country as
a privaie in Company A, 167th Penn
sylvania Volunteers, I contracted
chronic diarrhoea. It has given me
great deal of trouble ever since. I have
tried a dozen different medicines and
several prominent doctors without any
permanent relief. Not long ago a friend
sent me a sample Dottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
and after that I bought and took a 50
cent bottle; and now I can eay that
am entirely cured. I cannot be thankful
enough to you for this great Remedy
and recommend it to all Buffering veter
ans. If in doubt write to me. Yours
gratefully, Henry Steinberger, Allen
town, Pa. Sold by Blakeley & Hough-
