If, as is unquestionably true in
many instances, trade is not as large
as usual, the necessity for curtail-
ing expenses at once becomes APP
parent TO the man of correct bust
ness principles. The greater vol
ume of business does not always
net the greater return.
Among lumber manufacturer
there is and has been for some time,
a difficulty which must sooner or
later be corrected, and the sooner
the better, perhaps. There are two
many of them doing business on
an almost exclusively credit system,
and others who have been in the
habit of receiving very heavy lines
of credit, considering the extent of
their business. The banks are in
clined to curtail those credits, and
unless sales of lumber are made
promptly, and for cash to meet cur
rent expenses, there is cramped
condition for the manufacture.
Whether or not the banks are as
accommodating as they might and
ought 10 be, is question we sug-
gest for their consideration, but we
do insist that the business in lum-
Der should be reduced to a proper
and legitimate basis, instead of car
ried on after the inflated fashion of
the past few years. For the pres
ent year there is, or will be, a de-
mand for every foot of lumber man
ufactured in America, and
at prices which will leave a
margin for the manu-
facturer. Courage in the face of
facts, courage to meet any depress-
ing influences which may arise, or
which now exists, courage 10 limit .

Three Kansas men are charged
with having stolen a county. They
staked it out, and called it Barbour.
Then they divided the county
offices among themselves, taking
two or three apiece, and sent GER
tificates and affdavits to the CAPT.
tai. Their credentials as a county
were forwarded. At the general
election over two hundred and fifty
one vote were cast into the ballot
box after the Philadelphia fashion,
and w. II. Horner was chosen to
represent Barbour in the Legisla-
ture. Horner voted industriously
for everybody else's measures, and
found it easy to get through one of
his own. 1t was bill to authorize
Barbour county to isst Q bonds for
the building of bridges and other
necessary Improvements. The
bonds were issued and sold well,
IIorner acting as agent. And now
Horner and all the population OF
Barbour county, and the proceeds
of the bonds, have disappeared
and the bondholders are wondering
where they've gone TO.

The Condition Of Trade.

IL every branch of trade, it has
become a chronic thing with men to
grumble and complain of "hard
times" The cheerful, hopeful bust
ness man is the exception and not
the rule. This is not as it should
be, even though there is little
more difficulty in obtaining accom-
inodations ut the banks, and collec-
tons are not so easily made as form
crly. AS q matter Of fact, mer-
chants of almost all classes are do
ing a very good business, while
lumber manufacturers in Michigan
and elsewhere are actually dispos-
ing of their products very freely,
and at prices which are fairly re-
munerative. The practice, among
business men, OF brooding over dis
appointment OF extravagant hopes,
and complaining to each other, ac-
tually reporting their business
much duller than II Is, serves TO Gre
ate an unnecessarily depressed feel
ing. IL IL time this sort of thing
was stopped IL operates injuri-
ously every way. Evil disposed
persons take advantage OF this cur
rent style Of talk and decline 10
meet obligations Of a pecuninry
character which they otherwise ,

The advocates of taxation as a
means of controlling and regulat-
ing the traffic in ardent spirits
would do well to bear in mind that
the State is in the field as an advo-
cate of the prohibitory policy. This
would be of little consequence IN
der ordinary circumstances; but as
the. State has a Board of trained
essayists, with plenty of time to
start "amorphous fields Of fact in
to crvstalizations of law and effort
and has also the use of the public

A Terrible Temptation.

ga respectable person." says the Pail
Mall Gazette, "was arrested the other
day, in Paris, on the charge of picking a
pocket under circumstances which must
command the sympathy of the most
rigid moralist. He was returning home
from social gathering when the natural
convulsion to which Lord Dundreary
used to be so subject overlook him, and
he sneeZed i'm the most uncompromising
manner This usually satisfactory oper-
alton is not, however, entirely so to a
civilized person unless he can command
the assistance of pocket-handkerchief.
The subject of this crisis, therefore, felt
wildly i'm his pocket for the desired
article, but his faithful companion had
disappeared. Suddenly an emotion of
Joy, such as that with which a ship
wrecked sailor spies distant sail, lighted
up his fearful eye. He saw depending
from the pocket of a friend walking
few PAGES in advance of him red silk
handkerchief, large, soft and lustrous. A
few seconds more and he had buried his
still quivering and wistful nose in those
delicious folds, when the hand of police
agent was laid on his shoulder, and the
owner of the handkerchief turned round,
revealing the countenance of complete
stranger. The pickpocket mdlgTe hi was
about to be led off to the station when
certain papers found on his person estab-
lished his respectability so conclusively
that he was suffered to go home, duly
provided with a pocket handkerchief
obligingly lent him by police officer.

. His next performance, l grieve to say,
was not attended with equal success
One of our regular paper-carriers fell sick,
and, at pinch, Wan Lee was ordered to
fill his place. To prevent mistakes he
was shown over the route the previous
evening, and supplied at about daylight
with the usual number of subscribers
copies. He returned after an hour, in
good spirits and without the papers. He
mad delivered them all, he said.
Unfortunately for Wan Lee, atabout 8
o'clock indignant subscribers began to ar
rive at the Office. They had received their
copies; but how? In the form of hard
pressed cannen balls, delivered by a
single shot and mere tour de force
through the glass Of bedroom windows.
They had received them full in the face,
like baseball, if they happened to be
up and stirring; they had received them
in quarter sheets, tucked in at separate
windows; they had found them in the
chimney, pinned against the door, shot
through attic windows, delivered in long
slips through convenient keyholes, stuffed
into ventilators, and occupying the same
can with the mornings milk. One sub
SCIlDcI, WIN Wdlttu iOl oOniC tillC at tiIC
office deor, to have personal interview
with Wan Lee (then comfortably locked
in my bed-room), told me with tears of
rage in his eyes, that he had been
awakened at five o'clock by a most
hideous yelling below his windows; that
on rising, in great agitation, he was
startled by the sudden appearance Of
The Northern Star, rolled hard and bent
into the form of boomerang or East
Indian club, that sailed into the window,
described number of fiendish circles in
the room, knocked over the light, slapped
the baby's face took him (the sub
scriber) ain the jaw" and then returned
out of the window, and dropped helplessly
in the area. During the rest of the day
wads and strips of soiled paper purport-
ing to be copies of the The Northern Star
of that mornings issue, were brought
Indignantly to the office. An admirable
editorial on "The Resources of Hum
boldt County" which / had constructed
the evening before, and which, / had rea-
son to believe, might have changed the
whole balance of trade during the ensu-
ing year, and left San Francisco bank
rupt at her wbarves, was in this way lost
to the public.-Brct Hdrte.

Lovely Sayages.

These Samoans are the most lovely
race of savages with whom it has been
my fortune to meet; they have not the
fiat noses, thick lips, and frizzled hair of
the negro type, but have distinctly Eu-
ropean features, and a very pleasing ex-
preston. The color of their skin is a
tied to light fringe of grass around the
waist, and the women cOnfine themselves
in the way of tattooing to a couple of
thin blue lines across the lips. The men
are of great physical strength and enOr-
nous stature they have queer disdain
for us whites, and say that while we en-
ploy brute force, e, g., Armstrong guns,
etc, like bull, they have the reason and
intellect of the child who runs away
from the bull.
They live a happy, graceless life; the
earth, unasked, produces her treasures in
abundance they have no need to dig
when all is ready to their hand. They
bask in the sunshine, or bathe in the cool
waters of some retired cove, and can not
understand why we should come to thrust
our business worries upon them, to buy
their land and grow cotton and sugar, and
their island with convenient but intru-
sive roads; and, above all, why we should
send missionaries, who can't agree among
themselves, and who attempt to intro
duce all-concealing garments, of which
the want was before unknown. 1t isn't
half as pretty dress as the garlands of
fresh flowers with which they love to
adorn themselves in their artless and
primitive simplicity. They are not
moral, according to our ideas-far from
it, but they have a strong sense of the
aesthetic, and chastity does not rank as a
virtue among them, where the reverse is
no sin. They are very clever at ham,
mering out shillings into rude silver
rings, between a couple of stones, and
they also bring for sale little tortoise-shell
ornaments, inlaid with silver. Their
coiffure might have come from Paris or
London, for when was there bright red
hair was in vogue with both sexes. They
few days, which destroys the original
color of the hair, and produces bright
saffron tinge. When man becomes en-
gagged, the fair fancee often clips her
flowing locks, and brings them to her
Adonis, who plaits them in elaborately
with his own, producing most elaborate
head-dress. The disgusting way in
which they prepare kava, an intoxicat-
ing drink, by chewing, has often been
described, and do not care to repeat it.
Strangely enough the Samoans are just
one day behind all the rest of the world.
Their Sunday should be the same day as
in New Zealand and Australia, but as
their missionaries came from the east of
them, and forgot to miss out day in
their reckoning, they have perpetrated
mistake. 1t was Monday on board the
Nevada when we touched at Pango-
pango, but with them it was still the
Sabbath, and in consequence we were
unable to trade to any large extent
