B1sMARoK's arrogance in the Prussian
diet is beginning to provoke even the most
conservative members to retaliation. One
member on Monday openly declared that
the first necessity for a gag law was to con-
troll the utterances Of the government, a
thrust that provoked an angry retort from
the chancellor and a stormy scene in the
chamber. 1t is thought that this scene will
lead to an early dissolution of the diet,
when the PREMIER will endeavor to procure
the election of members more willing to be
gagged than are those who compose the
present body.

is sure to occur, will enable the log owners
to run their property down to the st. Paul
boom, where they can be manufactured into
lumber or distributed in convenient lots to
down-river points. AS yet the mills that are
about to be constructed here have made lit
tie progress, but as soon as spring fairly
opens they will be erected without unneces-
sary delay. Other manufactures will follow
them speedily, and before winter shall have
set in we confidently expect to hear the hum
OF machinery on every hand.
Our wholesale trade shows many indioa-
lions of revival. Our merchants have laid
IN heavy stocks of goods, and are prepared
to supply every demand at the shortest no.
tice. Their lines embrace all grades of goods
that can be obtained in any market in the
West, and as the terms are as low as can be
obtained in Chicago, st. Louis or Milwau-
kee, there is no occasion for merchants within
reach of this city going to those markets for
supplies at an extra cost for freight. Our
dealers have not been idle during the past
winter. They have taken advantage of the
extension of our railroad system to present
their claims to the trade of the vast region
north, west and southwest of rs, and have
succeeded even beyond their expectations in
capturing that trade.
If the same liberal policy that has charac-
terlzed our merchants in the past is made
the rule for the future, we have no fear but
the trade of st. Paul for 1879 will show q
marked incl ease over last year. Our facili-
ties are greatly increased, both by an extension
of the lines of communication between this
city and the country tributary to it and in
the enlargement of the lines of goods de-
signed to supply the country. What, then,
is to hinder progress? Certainly there is
nothing, and unless some grave mistake is
made or some commercial CONFUSION over
takes the country, we shall expect to chroni-
Gle at the close of the year not only season
of unexpected commercial and manufactur-
iAg prosperity, but large increase of popu-
lation and wealth. It behooves our citizens,
however, to work hand in hand to accomplish
this end, and to let opportunity slip by
which an advantage may be gained.

HE citizens Of the town of Honolulu
Stevens county, paid a deserved compliment
to Hon. L. B. Hodges during the Legislative
session. That was the point where the
brass kettle war was inaugurated, and dur
ing the winter the citizens held meeting
there and unanimously voted to change the
name of the town to Hodges, in honor of
the man who had championed their cause.
A bill was accordingly introduced in the
Legislature changing the name of the town
of Honolulu to Hodges, and 1t was promptly
passed and approved by the Governor. This
is deserved compliment. Mr.. Hodges has
been foremost in battling for the farmers,
and their recognition of his services is no
moro than justice.

ALASKAN WATERS.


mons De Cosmos moved an address be pre-
pared to the governor general asking for
copies OF the memorandum of causes leading
thereto and of the convention between Great
Britain and Russia of 1926 in relation to the
boundary between Alaska and British Colum
bla, with all reliable maps and charts since
made of Alaska. He claimed that by the
convention of 1926 we had the right of navi-
CATION of all rivers in Alaska, but said that
by some accident when the treaty of Wash
lngton was under consideration in 1871 only
the Yucon, Porcupine and Stikeen rivers
were included in our rights in that way.
Mills stated that the treaty of 1926 gave to
Russia narrow strip of territory on the
coast south of Mount Elias, and extending
as far south as Portland channel, on the ex
press condition that all the rivers flowing
through this Russian territory should be open
to navigation on the part of subjects of Great
Britain for all purposes whatsoever.
De Cosmos said the Russian government
in 1867 by selling Alaska to the United States
abrogated the convention of 1925.
Sir John A. Macdonald said there were
two opinions on this point. Mon
tague Bernard, member of the COM
ntooAou' tnu WIZ way perhaps the best inter-
nationl lawyer in England, and Lord Ten
derden, now under secretary of foreign af-
fairs, who perhaps knew more about the
treaties that England ever entered into than
any other man on earth, united in the opin-
ion that by this transfer of Alaska to the
United States these rights were destroyed.
This was the opinion of the Gladstone gov
eminent, and the British ambassador at
Washington was go instructed He. did not
know whether the papers and maps in the
question could be conveniently. brought
down within reasonable time and with
reasonable expense, but he would look into
the matter. Motion carried.

The Aquatic Boynton at Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI, March 11.--Capt. Paul Boyn-
ton left Maysville last midnight on his way
down the Ohio and reached this city about 4
this afternoon. He narrowly escaped being
rum nown in the darkness by the steamer
Telegraph, and travelled the greater portion
of the night in pelting rain and against
strong head winds. He was met above the
city by boat-load of people and escorted to
the mail line wharf boat, below the suspen-
sion bridge, where he emerged from the
water. His entry into the city was witnessed
by thousands of people who lined the river
bank from Pendleton to his landing place.
The date for the resumption of his journey is

AS the GLOBE predicted, the Governor has
signed the so-called Stacy wheat grading bill
and vetoed the Campbell bill. The Camp

brass kettle and made the half bushel the
standard. The Stacy bill makes the half
bushel the standard, but allows the use of the
brass kettle, provided it has Mr.. Stacy's de-
vice for filling and is selected by the seller
as the standard which he prefers. The prac-
teal workings of the bill will be question

Gov. Pillsbury decided yesterday to veto
the bankrupt bill passed by the late legisla-
ture, the reasons therefor, we understand, to
be substantially what the following petition,
which was presented to him, sets forth:
To His Excellency, John s. Pillsbury, Gov
ernor:
me undersigned residents and merchants of
tne state OF Minnesota would respectfully
represent TO your excellency, that in connec-
ZION with their respective legal advisers, they
nave mad under consideration Senate bill 4O4,
being an act to prevent debtors to give prefer
e1ces, etc.
That your petitioners believe the provisions
OF SAID act to be pernicious, and that they will
prove injurious in practice to the interests of
botn the Wholesale and retail trade of the
otate. Ihat said act gives manifest and un-
just preference to the foreign creditor, who
car institute his proceedings or obtain his
states court while the resident creditor
must have resourse to the courts
OF the State where the provisions
OF TINS act alone.apply. That aside from the
opJections IN point of practice, and the grave
CONSTITUTIONAL questions that must inevitably
ARISE IN consequence of the many crude and
loosely drawn sections of the act; the provis-
Ions OF sections and 10 are alone sufficient to
condemn the act in the Judgment, as we think,
OF every honest man. Said sections offer q
premium for fraud and establish a principle in
commercial law repugnanu to all honest deal
ers.

lency to withhold your approval from the said

Trained from exercising her right of redemption
