The presi dent said to a representative of j tho Associated Press today; "I see it is assumed in certain quarters that a deliverance published a few days ago on the Cuban question may be taken as defining the attitude of the administration on tho subject. I wish you would say.'I never sawjthe statement nor heard of It until I read it In the newspapers. Even then I neglected to read all of it, supposing it represented nothing more than newspaper gush. I do not know how i. Children Cry for I f!tohr's Castorla. It originated, nor by whom It was constructed or Inspired, but I do know I nm In no manner responsible for It or In any way related to it. I only desire to say lli addition that I do not know whether the publication referred to represents the views of the administration on Cuban ques tion or notf, and that T never found any dllllculty In communicating with the people In a ma mer which leaves no doubt ns to the, authenticity of a statement purporting to toprcsont my views." Stopping itro's Mall. San Francisco. March 0. Mayor Sutro was f urlousbvuen he heard of tlio seizure by thefpost onico author ities of his communications to the congressmen mid Iwjnntou at Wash ington warning (hem of tho fclicmes of Huntington to compass the pas sage of tho funding bill. Ills anger wns occasioned not so much by the stoppngoof tho tpttcrs as from the fact that he had Apt been notified by the postmaster f the MsUiire. He considered that 'lie holding of tho letters had causei the loss or valunblo time In the fight igaltist the funding bill, and that he . should have been told that tho dc artment considered tho envelopes objectionable so that he might havo devised other means of placing tuemfn the hands of tho members of congress. Tho Inscription on the cnvclopo to which the postnllauthoritles object Is, In the opinion of the mayor, nothing but nn expression of truth, and there fore not in tho least libelous or scur rilous. Ho bclloved the statement that 'Huntington -would not steal a red-hot stovoJ' with tho Inference that ho might, be capablo of stealing something far .more valuable and easily handled, to bo strictly In accor dance with vcrnclty, In the light of past events and wonders that the ppstoulccjlgpartraont should seize up on such an expression to stop tho mis sive to the men he wishes to reach. Corea'n Ministry Beheaded. San Francisco, March 0. Tho steamer China arrived from Yoka homa, bringlngnows of another coup d'ctat on an cxtenslvo scalo at Seoul, Corea.

Nobody has paid much nt lent ion to reports from tho Held lately, Wash ington and Madrid have been tho sole centers of Interest. Yet, within a few days, Gomez and Mucco havo achieved other successes In t lie face of strong opposing coluiqns, which havo made the world wonder how It can be done. General "Woylor, apparently bcllov lng ho had driven them to their stronghold In tho everglades of Cien gi. Sopata, has been hurrying thou sands of troops Into Santa Clara by land and sea with ono purpose of hemming tho enemy In nt that point. General Pando, In command In Santa Clara, only awaited the arrival of these troop to strike hard blows. Hut Gomez and Mncco having jleft In the ovcrglado's hospitals all their wounded and ill, taken cast frcm their raids In tho western provinces, strengthened their forces with now troops fresh from Puerto Prlnclpo nnd San Diego, and then, whllo the Spanish bat talions wero enroute to catch them, they unexpectedly turned west again, slipping past all obstructions with only n fow skirmishes. Now Gomez is In tho heart of Vat anzas and Mncco Is onco mora almost In tho gates of the capital. Trains have been fired on Jtut beyond tho city on the Matanzas road, and Mon day night there was a sharp skirmish only three miles beyond tho suburb of Jesus del Monto, a settlement to which Havana horse-cars and omni buses make regular trips. Thcro wiih no ofllclul report of tho affair given out. The Arizona- School Bill. WAsiiiNaTON,Mnrch 0.

Editor Jeurnal: Tho following cdltorlnl was clipped from the Dally Orcgenlan: "Tho two school elections Monday In which tho A. P. A.issuo was clearly defined, woro nt Oregon City and Ba ker City. Each A. P.A. candidate was defeated. This Is likely to be tho case wherever ft full vote can bo got out. Religious prescription Is not approved by tho American Idea ot fair play. Tho only dnnger Is tho conservative, modcrato may not take enough Interest In tho election to turn out and vote." Tho question Is: shall the voters of school district No. 24 permit n person to bo elected director, who is tho representative or an organization which has turned nolghbor against nolghbor and created strlfo In tho community unknown since It showed Its cloven hoor immediately preced ing tho late war? "Will our voters allow W. M. Chcrrlngton to bo elected director, who would bo unthought of, If it had not been Tor tho A. P. A. organization, which It Is reported nominated htm and at their last meeting appropriated out of tho funds of tho organization $25 for hack hire and "incidental" expenses on election day? "Why should tho A. P. A. organization nomluato a man for Bchool director ana demand his olcctlon.nny moro thnn tho Methodist, Prcsbyterlnn, Unitarian, Catholic, Baptist, Christian, Congregational, Masonic, Odd Fellows, or Knights of Pythias organizations? With our present largo indebtedness In this dis trict, It Is a serious problem how wo arc to contiuuo our public schools. "Who Is tho better qualified to carry out the Interests of tho district In a business manner? MivChorrlnglon Is wholly unfamiliar wltlr tho needs of our schools, and was never known to attend a school mooting slnco his residence In this district, while on tho other hand Dr. Byrd has been chair man of tho board for the past yenry and Is thoroughly familiar with all tho details of tho management of tho schools and tho requirements of tho district. It Is to bo hoped our voters will not permit such a calamity to overtake us, as tho election of Mr. Chcrrlngton, who represents all tho prejudices nnd bigotry of the dark ages, nnd nil that is vicious in our political system. It is un-Amorlcan to turn back tho "whcols of time" 300 years and array our people against ono another, as they woro thon. Dr. Bynl Is a gentleman In ovcry sonso, nnd Is not In tho habit of telling smutty nnd vilo stories to "split tho enrs of tho groundlings." It Is not a matter of Republican, Democratic or Populist success. The tarju, gold nnd silver standards aro not in question. It is a contest for tho proper management of the schools and of tho success of tho bettor elcmont In tho community against n secret and "dark cellar" conspiracy, to'subvort tho lxist Inter ests of our public schools. Mr. Chcr rlngton represents the latter element. Ho has been n resident of our city but a short time, whllo Dr. Byrd was born and raised in our midst. Thcro Is hut one courso left for thoso who wish to sco a proper management of our schools, and that Is: to vote for Dr. Byrd, who has given general satlsfac faction to all persons who have de sired the continuance of our excellent schools. Taxpayers and friends of good government, do not allow your selves to be mislead by any false Issues. Friend ok Puiilio Schools. Ex-Attornoy-Goncral Geo. II.

Lawlor, managing director of the Lawlcrgold mines, limited, exten sively engaged In mining operations ot Quartsvllle, Linn count', was a guest at tho Portland, accompanied by Mrs. Lawlcr. Mr. Lawler and his wire left this morning' over the Northern Pacific for Now York and thenco go to London where he wfll re main about six weeks on business con nected with tho further advancement of mining operations In tho Santlam and adjacent countries. Talking of tho work so far pro gressed nt Quartzvllle, nnd the out look,Mr. Lawlor speaks very encourag ingly. Tho 20-statnp mill, sot up im dor so many difficulties, owing to tho lateness or tho season, Is crushing' 00 tons or tiro each day and meeting all expectations. Tho clean-up, after a run of ono week, proved entlroly satis- ractory, and ruturo results will doubt less prove amply sufficient to Justify tho groat oxpenso Incurred In a prac tical development or tho mineral wealth or tho country. "Quartzvllle and tho surrounding country Is rich In mineral," said Mr. Lawlcr, "but the character or tho ore Is such that it should provontnny stampede to thnt section. It Is not a poor mnn's country, nnd tho mines must lw operated on n largo scale In order to ninko thorn pay. Tho ore Is not free, nnd it will not only tnko capital, but plenty of it, to bring about good results." Mr. Lawlcr has bonded a number of properties In tho Blue river country. Tho mines owned by the Lnno county, Bluo river nnd Lucky Boy companies, havo each been bonded for $15,000, the Turner clalnrfor $0000, nnd other hi sldo grounds nt various sums. It Is tho Intention ot Mr. Lawler to com monco actlvo work on thoso properties early next Juno, and his London trip will bo made as oxpediously as possi ble on this account. All mllcago fees for legislators and county sheriffs should bo abolished and only actual traveling expenses paid. That was what mllcago was Intended for any way simply a guar ontco of expenses and not the excel lent and profitable rakc-olf from tho public funds It now affords. The day was when fares wcro ton cents a mile, and mllcago fees generally corres ponded, but fares In our own state have conio down to four conts a milo and mileage fees havo conio down not a cent.
