Thxbx arc 3,090 people idle and
h'.arriug because of the strike at
Xorih Adams, Mass.
The Washington Insurance Gom
Iany of Tacoma lias gooe to pieces,
end K)licy holders arc charging the
msnagens with rascality.
At Whatcom recently. 320 thou
awl feet o lumber was sold for
--1.000. or $5 a thousand feet: consid
rally less than the logs cost.
Thk Illinois legislature has passed
:; bill providing that ik telephone
company shall charge more than 88
Ir month wiicn one telephone is
used, and $2.50 when more than one
is used, and fixing the charge for
trnnsmitiiug messages from one
town to another at ten cents.
Thk daily newspaper is what the
public want it and make it. If its
pnblisltcr was jnt running it-for his
health he would often do and say a
good many things differently; bat,
generally, he has to live by what ever
little income his newspaper brings in
to him and can't afford to do what
his better nature and belter judg
ment awgnesi. Perhaps it is just as
well.
Tub great game that England and
Russia have for months been playing
appears to end by each skle declaring
for ience. Gladstone is the real mas
ter ot the situation, and whatever ap
plause the whole affair commands
must be given the sturdy old man
wlw was determined that there
should be no w:r. ami won his point.
Russia apjtears to have the beet of it,
but Gladstone's real wisdom will bo
come more evident in a few months
when the Nihilists for want of some
outlet begin once more howling
about Alexander's ears.
Tub petrified wood found in the
Kocky mountain regions is rapidly
becoming utilized. In San Francisco
there is now a factory for cutting and
polishing thwe petrifactions into
mantel-pieces, tiles tablets and other
architectural parts for which marble
or slab is commonly used. Petrified
wood is said to be susceptible of a
iinor polish than marble, or even
onyx, the latter of which it is driving
from the market. The raw material
employed comes mostly from the
forests of petrified wood aloudg the
Atlantic and Pacific railway. Several
other companies have also been
formed to obtain concessions of differ
ent portions of these forests. Geolo
gists will regret the destruction of
such interesting primeval remains,
and some steps ought to be taken to
preserve certain tracts in their origi
nal state.
For an illustration of the astonish
ing fall in the rale of interest, econo
mists can point hereafter to the new
Connecticut loan ot $170,000, due in
1910. The entire block of bonds is
sued this summer for refunding pur
poses, has been sold to two Kew Yerl:
banking houses at 100.R76. the inter
est rate being 3 per cent. In other
words. 8 per cent, long term bonds of
an American stale of undoubted hon
esty are worth to bankers in the pres
ent condition of the money market a
fraction more than par. The ulti
mate holder for investment will thus
realize something less man 6 per
cent, per annum. The contrast be
tween tho. price of these bonds and 3
per cent. British consols is sug
gestive. The example of Connecti
cut, by the way, in makiug its loan 3
per cant, instead of 81... or i per cent.
is worthy of imitation by other
states and by municipalities.
MoLban of Ohio doesn't want any
oflice. and thus expresses himself in
his paper, the Cincinnati Enquirer:
4'IcLGan is a candidate for no oflice,
elective or appointive, under the
shining siars. He is actively engaged
in the publication of the Cincin
nati Enquirer, and has no time to
waste on public offices. He would
iot accept one even with a chromo
attachment. lie aeks for nothing
but good health and a continuation
of business as it exists to day at ihe
old stand. 2o. 247 Yine street. At
this number, second floor, ho has an
office which suits him belter than any
which king or prince might have to
offer. "Willi this he is abundantly
satisfied. Ilis newspaper collects
and prints the news of the
old and new worlds in advance of
all compositors. A vast army of
subscribers drop their golden apples
into his basket and get value recived
