A gentleman well in formed regarding the situation. say» the big mill recently nurchased will be es tablished in the neighborhood ol Isabel, about nine miles above the mouth of the Mohawk river. Thin mill has a capacity of 100,000 feet of lumber per day. Engineers of the Southern Pacific Co have recently ex am met! tbe country, and it is understood the company will in a short time, build a branch road from their Wood burn-8prlngfiel«l line to tne big mill.

Adniiial Dewey is said to have notified the Navy department that ho ex|M*cts the situation in the Philippine* will very shortly justify his starting for home with his flagship, th» Olympia. This is not official, but it is believed to be cor rect, Sr.j.tary Long says that Admiral Ihtwey is at liberty to start home when ever he feel" that preset ug need for hie services has ceased to exist. It indicates that the admiral takes the same hopefill view of tlie situation that Washington officials have taken since Aguinaldo opened negotiation* with his requests (or a cessation of the fighting requests which were denied, because General Otis believed that the speediest way to obtain peace was to continue lighting, a belief fully justified by present conditions. The representatives of Agilinalde have accepted our terms and recognized the authority ol the United Hutes over ihe Philippines, but that tricky individual may delay the final surrender a little longer, either to save his vanity or to carry out some scheme for his own per sonal profit, but everything points to tlie enrrectuee* of the statement made a week ego that the Philippine revolt is practically over.

But, unfortunately it was discovered that the wine gra|>e would flourish there, and no valley in the state has liven more cursed by drunkenness than Napa. We do not wonder that earnest Uliristian citixenejhave become alarmed at the ravages ol the drink deuton. Re cently an Anti saloon league bee been formed in Napa, and a.campaign of edu- cation has begun, with the ultimate ob ject of ridding tlie city of saloons. Dr. C. if. Karman, a leading memheeof tbe Centenary Methodist Episcopal church, is president of the league, krona his open address to his fellow townsmen we quote a paragraph. “Imagine what might have been ill Napa. Scarcely an attraction in the town lor our youth* but its 40 saloons Not even a night school supported by the taxpayers to aid our buys and girls who are compelled to work for a living ; stagnation iu material prosperity. We pride ourselves ua starting a |2,000 to 83,000 glove er shoe factory anoa in five year* that pay* star vation a ages, and pay a driuk bill of *160,000 a year, for what? For a stimu lant ? No!

Yeur l>hysician, 11 be le abreast ol hie profee- sion, will tell you that it would have bnen better to have thrown it into the gutter, I say it is a sadder sight by far to see one ol our brothers cursed by drink Ilian it would to see all the wine in Napa valley poured into its river.
