BRITISH SUBSIDIES. The Philadelphia Press has dis closed the fact that the British gov ernment, while paying subsidies to British vessels for carrying the mails, is now trying to conceal the fact. A private letter from the secretary of the British pstfice department, written to a British shipowner, ac knowledges that contracts for carry ing the mails are not let to the lowest bidder, nnd are only given to British ships. Advertisements are purposely worded to include foreign bidders, but the secretary of the postoftiee department acknowledges that that is n mere pretense and that such contracts are not given to foreign ships, no matter how low the bid may be. A few years ago a German line bid for carrying the mails from England to the United States, and the bid was so much lower than that of any British line that the contract was actually given to the German line. Such an outcry was raised in J parliament about it that the British government canceled the contract , . . . ,. , with this foreign line and restored . the service to a British line. r..,, , , . , I SinnQ than r r nnntvnr1 c t n tr Imnn '""-'- """ made with any foreign line where a British line competes, and the Brit ish postoQlce official quoted in our Washington dispatch distinctly states that while the advertisements invite! bids from foreign companies, still ! that is only for the purpose of mak ing it appear that the British govern ment does not "narrow the ostensible field of competition." Sir Henniker Heaton, a well-known member of the British parliament, states that British ships are paid 31 cents a pound more for carrying the mails to the United States than is paid by the British government to foreign ships for do ing precisely the same work. But letters are only sent by a foreign ship when specially directed by that route. Otherwise they are withheld ; immediate relief money refunded until a British ship sails, although it ! 25 eta. and 50 cts.

The state -board of Qah com mis- aioners have decided not to enforce the Sunday-closing feature of the Oregon law, and the Astoria papers commend the decision as pre eminent ly wise.
