A RICHMOND. Virginia, eorrepond'
ent writes thus 1.-THE statistics OF
the operations Of the Mofistt reg
lister in Virginia for four and
and a half months have just been pub
lished. From the middle u September
to the lst OF February the people OF
Richmond took 7s3.66s alcoholic and
zoo. GIG malt drinks. That was what
was reported by registers. l think that
we may safely rely upon the current be-
lief that one-third more are taken by
persons who bought II in large quanti-
ties for home uses. and only sold by
dealers who neglected or forgot to turn
the crank. According to the official
figures. We take 100000 drinks Per
annum. According to my theory.
$780, 900. I believe We have 10000
voters. The allowance per annum Is
COS drinks per voter. or IL the popula-
ton is 10000. ssventy.hvs drinks per
mum for man woman and child"

THE EUROPEAN CRISIS.

The news which comes by the cable
to-day, Is anything but r~eassuring to
those who have hoped almost against
hope for the preservation Of peace in
Europe. Indeed. for several days the
prospect Of an Anglo-Russian wal haa
been such a. TO make il almost . GER
tainty in the near future. but a. Eng
land was apparently isolated and cut Oh
from all allies. there was q possibility
that prudence would dictate . truce.
and that for a time. at least. the evil
might be avertod. The news to-day,
however. places the situation in = new
light. and strengthens tho arm Of great
Britain wonderfully. The mission Of
General Ignatisff to Vienna has failed.
So far from inducing Count Andrassy 10
Join with Russia. or even to promise
the maintenance Of neutrality in the
event Of war with England. Ignaiisfi
has left Austria with no guarantees
whatever. Indeed. Andrassy practically
snubbed the Cars ambassador. for he
declined even to tell him what he con-
sidered Austria's interests demanded.
and having thus abruptly broken of the
negotiations proceeded quietly Z order
the mobilization Of an army OF 400. Ooo
men on the Bosnian frontiers.
This news will gladden. all England
to-day. and will do much to strengthen
the government in the discussion Of ths
Queens message TO Parliament. calling
out the reserve militia. The opposition
will be prsportionately weakened. and
there can be no doubt that the govern.

the probability Is that the action Of the

Premier. on Saturday. Tho Count re-
fused all his offers and told him that Rus

European interests independently OF tho
other Powers. II Austria were to define
her own interests Independently. the
Count said, she would ask for more than
she proposed to demand In . congress.
Ignatieff asked him what Austria deemed
q Just concession to her. and Andrassy de-

our CITY Government.

The Melligencer of this morn
ing contains an article on the
present financial condition of
our city, which is SO full Of mis-
representation that it has called
out the following statement OF
facts from the City Clerk and
Treasurer. That paper has OF
late so fallen into the habit of
Misrepresentation, that its as
sertions have no weight what
ever with the public. This is
only one of the many instances
in which the MtelHgencer has at
tempted to injure the good
standing and credit of the city
from which it draws it's nutri-
ment, and the fact that it has
lost its former good name and
prestige as newspaper and is
slowly but surely verging to
bankruptcy, is not astonishing:
To THE EDITORS OF THE DISPATCH:
The hatelligencer of this morning pub
fishes an editorial on 1.-The City Guv-
ernment," in which there appears some
misstatements which we feel it our duty
to correct. It says: "On the contrary.
it is claimed that the city has run in
debt $4,000 already. and is still runs
ming behind at the same rate ss in the
past in the face of the facts that no in>
debtedness can legally be incurred by
the city beyond $4,000" Now had
the Editor of the Lnteligencer read the
laws passed by the Territorial Legisla
ture last fall. he would have found that
in the amended charter, the city of Se-
attic is authorized to incur an indebted
ness to the amount of 800 600. legally;
and furthermore, had he consulted our
books, he would have found the present
Indebtedness Of the city to be $11. 283 so;
and of this amount there has been COLI
lected by Capt. Hill. city collector,
about 81 900. which leaves the indebted
ness $40. 2S3 80; and there is still de-
linquent list amounting to about 81. 900.
most of which will be collected. There
is no necessity of any such misstate-
ments AS appeared in the Intelligencer OF
this morning. as we are always ready
and willing to give any information re>
quired in regard to the city finances.
and can tell the Indebtedness of the city
at any time.

Agustin Edwards, the million
aire banker Of Chill, who re-
Gently died, deserves a place
among the worlds foremost
money makers. A Chillan news
paper says that 'although he
might well have enjoyed the
pleasures his immense fortune
could have procured him, he was
voluntary slave to labor, and
often passed entire nights form
ing financial combinations which
were ever successful. In this
way he accumulated over $50
100000. All great millionaires
seem to have been hard work
ers.

Benjamin F. Wade.

The old line statesmen of the
country are gradually disappear
ing. The telegraph brings the
news of the death OF ex-Sena-
tor Benjamin F. Wade, of Ohio,
q man who has been promi-
nently identified with the politi-
cal history of the country since
1851. He was born in Feeding
Hills Parish, Mass, October q,
1900; received a limited educa-
ton. and commenced active life
by teaching school and attend
ing to agricultural pursuits In
Ohio, to which State he removed
when twenty-one years OF age;
he studied law and was admit
ted to the bar in 1928, and held
the various positions Of Justice
of the Peace, Prosecuting At
torney, State Senator, and Pres
ident of a Judicial circuit. In
1851 he was elected Senator in
Congress, from Ohio, for the
term ending in 1857 and he was
reelected for a second and third
term, ending in 1869, serving as
Chairman of the Committee on
Territories and Of the Special
Committee on the Conduct of the
War, and as a member OF the
Committee on Foreign Relations
and on the District Of Columbia.

N. p. r. r. Consistency.

It would be strange indeed H.
in the multitude of contradict
ory statements made by the
managers Of the Northern "a
cific Railroad Company. a truth
could not be found. The com
pany now announce what we
have been saying all along, that
anot within the life of any per-
son now living would the COM
pany build railroad across the
Cascade range" A letter to the
MtelAgsncer two or three weeks
ago announced that the presi-
dent of the company would visit
Seattle this summer with view
of locating the road from this
city across the Cascades. But
now a letter to the Tacoma Her
nM tells Enthusiastically that the
company never intend to build
this road. The chief engineer
of the company gives 1t as his
oninion that s.not within the
life of any person now living
would the company build rail
road across the Cascade range,
50 difficult and costly would be
the engineering and so eNpens-
i've and troublesome both the
maintenance and operation.
The Herald adds that the cngl
neer stands at the head OF MS
profession. This opinion ap-
pears to have been stated to the
house committee. This letter
gives us to understand that the
company never intended to build
the road across the Cascades
and their only object for getting
the time extended on the branch
line is to prevent the settlement
Of our public lands for the next
ten years. This soulless and
unprlncipled corporation Justly
merits the mi>Iortunes that have
oyertaken it, and which might
have been avoided by an honest.
straightforward course. There
IS no hope of connection by rail
of Eastern and Western Wash
ington, except by the Seattle q
Walla Walla Railroad. it is
therefore the duty Of every cit
izen of the Puget Sound basin to
encourage the early completion
of that road by every just
means.

The pain was intense. Yet, ac-

a bill is before Congress,

FauDt-Finders.

some p0Opl0 CuitAs"Ce q uiSPO-
sition of fault-finding and quar-
relsomeness. They ire never
satisfied with themselves, and,
consequently, are never satisfied
with others. They enjoy being
unhappy, and nurse a grievance
with the greatest zeal and in
dustry. They are constantly
looking about them for some
fancied slight or insult, and are
continually working themselves
into q mental heat over the same.
They make life a burden to
themselves and a source of un-
happines to oil who come in con-
tact with them. They make
desclate and gloemy the pleas
apt places of life, and fill their
day with painful unrest. They
take an absolute pleasure in con-
templatlng some injustice done
to themselves, and worry them
selves into a pitiful state of un-
happiness, if people by whom
they are surrounded do not give
them sufficient cause for the ex-
ercise Of this acrid disposition.
They hunt around, as 1T were,
for those most likely to give
them offence, and straightway
put themselves into an attitude
Of resentment in accordance
with this feeling. People Of this
character are frequently met in
daily life. They have a pinch
ed and bilious look, as though
their livers We're constantly out
Of order, and as though their ep-
igastric functions were in a con
slant state of embarrassment.
Such people are suspicious and
disagreeable, and always look at
life through jaundiced eyes.
There is no kindness in their
hearts and no friendship on their
lips. They go through life with
their feathers the wrong way.
and, like a porcupine, they are
always darting them at those
around them. All Of US know
such people, and it may be that
feelings like these sometimes
come into our own hearts. If
so, we shall know how to guard
against them, and how to crush
them cut Of existence, like nex-
ious weeds in a garden Of flow
ers, by having attention called
to them. Magranimity, self
sacrifice, and kindness towards
our fellows, have their compen-
sations and rewards, and quar-
relsomeness, fault-inding and
captiousness, brings their pun
ishments. Those who give
others the most happiness enjoy
the most happiness themselves.
A self-consciousness arises from
personal vanity or from selfish
ness, and one may be sure that
true merit and goodness will al
ways receive the attention they
deserve. Gratuitous insults are
not common, and one should al
ways remember that the world
is large, and that one IS not of so
much consequence to mankind
as he may imagine.
