having stolen across the line with
impunity, and they are now safe from
ali harm. Deputy Sheriff Lsckie
arrested three of the almond eyed
tribe of the Orient and took them out
IN boat to the Wolcott, which lay
at anchor i'll the bay. The officers
on board refused to have anything
whatever to do with the smugglers
This was during the absence Of
deputy collector Blake at Port Towns
end. As the officers whose duty it is
to prosecute the law in such eases re
fused to have anything to do with
the matter, Deputy Leckie turned
the prisoners loose to depart ON the
on the boat for Seattle.
The Rereiiie is at loss to under
stand the action of the Wolcott's of
ficers. 1t is certainly their duty to
strictly enforce the laws against
smugglers, and bring to justice any
persons found violating the provisions
of the customs service. These auto
Gratis are supposed to be hired by the
Government to rigidly and faithfully
prc tect the interests of the people
who pay them, but they seem to have
forgotten their duty and trust.
The average custom officer usurps
the privileges of the people with an
arrogance that has no decent bounds.
Their chief aim and desire seems to
be to hob-nob about with titled dig
nitaries always at the expense of
the people rather than attend to
their duties. They live like kings on
wine, fat oysters and the best of the
land, without rendering any equiva-
lent service.
The exigency of the times demands
a change Let the officers attend to
their duties or be displaced by others
who will. Drones are not wanted in
the Government hive of industry.
Hundreds of Cinnamon are stealing
over the British line into the United
States every week, before the eyes
of the unfaithful custom officers.
How long is this to continue?

Sunday Reading.

The only purely Christian country in
the world is believed to be the little isl
and of Atafu, in the South Pacific, where
every adult is a member of the church.
Rev. II. X. Hines, of Portland, editor
of the Pacific Christian Adrocate, is TO
preach a sermon at PuyalIup, Sunday,
Oct. 21st, aedicating Il new N. E. church
there.
Mr.. John Wanamaker has added one
more to the many benefaotions to the
Young Mems Christian Association, by
giving the Philadelphia Association
$4,000 TO pay off its floating debt The
entire amount OF the debt $200,000-
was made up by other subscribers.
Mr.. Spurgeon, "the other English
Prime me-Minister," is very populrr as an
author. His John Ploughman's Talks"
has had sale of 100000 copies in the
British Islands. His sermons have a
sale of 25,00O copies weekly, and old ser
mons of his are constantly being reprint
ed. The greatest sale of single sermon
is of that on "Baptismal Regeneration"
first preached in 1884: 10000 copies of
it have been sold. The publishing house
of Passmore 4 Alabaster give their
whole attention to the Spurgeon litera-
ture The business yields Mr.. Spurgeon
large income, which is mainly used, as
we understand, to carry on his great
work. His general plans bear close
resemblance to those of John Wesley,
but Spurgeon has an immense advantage
in the increase Of general education and
the growth of habits of reading. \
notable fact is that he is very popular in
Scotland; it probably grows from his
pronounced Calyinism.
The bill introduced into the assembly
by Mr.. Kuhn of Jefferson, for the repeal
of the Sunday law has received its quiet
US, so far as that body is concerned. We
make no manner of doubt but that the
! Council will sustain the lower house in
| their action in this regard. Mr.. Kuhn
was doubtless inspired in his efforts to
| establish continental Sabbath III the
northwest by the temporary success
which his political congeners have
achieved in California. He and all who
think as he does on this subject Will find
that the more vigorously they press their
motions for free beer, free whisky, brass
bands and premiscuous picnics the more

will encounter and the more signal will
be their overthrow. There is a solid
substratum of reverence for the old land
marks beneath the apparent carelessness
and frivolity of the present generation
and it viii be found that it will serve as
the foundation for a Sunday observing
state. The member from Jefferson, pro-
vided he wishes to serve his party and

Newspapers.

One of our exchanges, in discussing
the value and stability of newspapers,
says:
A successful newspaper is not like
a mushroom which comes up in
night and vanishes in u day; it is
rather typified by the solid and en-
during oak, which grows slowly but
surely, taking deep root and spread
ing its branches no faster than its
foundation will warrant. The wrecks
of mushroom journalism are num-
bered by thousands; the successes are
comparatively rare, and generally
well deserved. Hundreds of news
papers are started by class of aa-
venturers who have everything to
gain and nothing to lose, and not
meeting with the success they expect,
after short trial, let their papers
die, and go to infiict themselves upon
another community in a similar man
ner. Having neither the ability or
the perseverance to build up a paper
Of character or standing, they are
forced to go to the wall. Such peo-
pie imagine that few fonts of type
constitute paper, and those who
control such a paper control the uni
verse. The facts are that such con-
Germs are only a damage to the COM
munities where they exist. They
may exist for a short time in tricks of
begging or blacksmithing, but their
standing is soon known. A news
paper is simply business concern,
with both private and public func-
tions, and like every other Legitimate
enterprise, must and Will stand on
It's own merits, no matter what ex-
ceptional efforts are taken to give it a
transient notoriety. A newspaper
boom Is of all the booms the most de-
ceptive and ephemeral, the money
spent in working it up being in most

= Devantated ToNNn.

GUAYMAs, Oct. 1S-Advices from Al
tata report the population of that town
decimated by yellow fever, deaths av-
eraging twenty per day for two weeks.
On the Sd of October Altata was struck
by hurricane, killing several people
and destroying the greater part of the
town. The inhabitants sought refuge
in the mountains. Several miles of the
SenaIoa Durango railroad track was torn
up, bridge at Yuriacitos blown down. and
the depot and machine house were the
only buildings left standing. Private
losses are estimated at $4,000. What
with fever and hurricane the misery and
devastation is something terrible
Later Customs officials say that the
collector of the port at Altata was among
those killed by the hurricane.

y bill for IN act to establish pilots
and pilot regulations for the Straits
of Juan de Fuca" has been intro
duced in the Washington legislature.
1t seems quite singular that the for
mer law on this subject should have
been repealed. This was done two
years ago. Good pilotage is neces-
sary to expedite commerce iii those
waters and contribute to the safety of
vessels navigating there. Though
that waterway is in every respect one
OF the very best in the world, yet the
great rise and fall of the tides, strong
currents that shift with tidal changes,
shoals that must be avoided, and oc-
casional periods when navigation is
impeded by smoke or fogs, combine
to make an efficient pilot system de-
sirable there, and this doubtless gives
rise to the present proposition to re-
pair the mistake of two years ago
