President Arthur's Management.

By his management he has greatly strength
ened his party, without insult to any faction
OF party, and has maintained the dignity OF
his office. Less fault is found with his adj
ministration than with those OF his predeces-
sors, and while Radical of the most radical
kind, he has acted magnanimously toward his
foes and OF ,onents. No man in the country
will be foul who would make better can
liidate for the same Office in 1884 than Mr..
{ Arthur, and great many will be candidates,
with fair chances of success, who, if elected,
would make far worse Presidents.

Abolish the Internal Revenue system.

Noblesyille Republican, Ledger
While there is no likelihood that the tax
on spirits and tobacco will be taken off, but
will remain permanently, we have great faith
in the wisdom of President Arthur's sugges-
ton to Congress last winter to abolish the
whole system of revenue collections and
turn the matter over to a bureau of the
Treasury Department.

MIR. Dorsey and His Influence.

Much has been said about the good things
accomplished for our party in the last cam
paign by Mr.. Dorsey; but we are decidedly
of the opinion and have been ever since that
time, that we would be in a much better
condition in Indiana had he never entered
the State. His methods were not the methods
that strengthen the Republican party They
were essentially Democratic methods, and if
he betakes himself to that party he will go
where he properly belongs. 1t is his depart
IRE that will strengthen us.

The Introduction of poker into the house
hold cannot fail to have a wonderful effect
upon the rising generation. Society is doing
it-hgh society-and the same society will
feel the smart of it by and by. Since some
of our fashionable and brainless young ladies
have begun to sip wine, to smoke cigarettes,
to use just cute little bit of profanity and
to play poker, it is just possible that the
young men who are on the lookout for wo-
men to become their wives and, in the
natural course of things to become the moth
err of their children, will make their selec-
tions from among those who are not alto
gether so fashionable but trihe more

From Alaska

On the Idaho which left Kinney's
dock yesterday morning, came from
Alaska $500 cases Of salmon from
Chilcat and Cape Fox canning com
panies, consigned to the Astoria Pack
ing Co. There were 500 additional
cases for the Northwestern Trading
company and a miscellaneous assort-
ment of salt salmon, and furs, includ-
ing the skins Of the fox, marten, bear,
sea otter, and mountain goat. Among
minor curiosities, an Alaskan helmet
in NJ J. Kinncy's Office is note
worthy. 1t was brought down on the
Idaho and shows marks of conflict. 1t
is made Of wood and leather, with a
fierce front and in battle is useful to
ward of the blows Of clubs or knives.

Newspapers.

One of our exchanges, in discussing
the value and stability of newspapers,
says:
A successful newspaper Is not like a
mushroom which comes NJ in night
and vanishes IN day; II Is rather
typified by the solid and enduring oak
which grows slowly but surely, takiug
deep root and spreading its branches
no faster than its foundation will war
rant. The wrecks OF mushroom Jour
nalism are numbered by thousands;
the successes are comparatively rare,
and generally well deserved. Hun
dreds of newspapers are started by =
class of adventures who have every
thing to gam and nothing tn lose, and
not meeting with the success they ex-
pect, after short trial, let their pa
pers die, and GO to infict themselves
upon another community in a similar
manner. Having neither the eb!ll'y
or the perseverance to build up i pa
per of character or standing, they are
forced to 60 to the wall. Such peo-
pie imagine that few fonts of type
constitute a newspaper, and those whO
control such a paper control the uni
verse. The facts are that such CON
Germs are only Z damage - the com
munities where they exist. They mry
exist for short time IN tricks of bsg-
ging or blacSmaiiing, but their stand
ing is soon know1. A newspaper Is

matter what exceptional eft rj4 are
taken TO give It q transient nutusi. rs.
A newspaper boom Is OF ali the booms
the most deceptive and ephemeral, tine
money spent in working i: up being in
most cases thrown away, unless there
is substantial worth and a solid foun-
dation for the enterprise doomed. with
a legitimate market for its extension.
If it is not given to all men to become
journalists, the general public is the
best possible judge of what it requires
and prizes IN 4 newspaper, and from
this judgment there is no appeal. The
growth of successful news journals
has generally kept pace with the prog
ress of their various localities, and has
not largely exceeded this progress un-
less in exceptional rules.

Imprisoned by a Bear.

Last Tuesday a gentleman who had
been engaged in hunting for sometime
past met with an adventure so thrill
ing that he became for some time de-
ranged. He was hunting above Ska
mokawa, in Wahkiakum county, when
a deer sprang up and started to run
down a canyon. Being a good shot,
the hunter soon rolled it over, and
proceeded to skin the same. He had
progressed but little when large bear
came rushing toward him. Again he
levelled his rife and sent a bullet
crashing through the thick hide of
Bruin. Instead of killing the besr it
only enraged him, aud after
a moments delay, more furi-
ously than ever he renewed
the mad rush for the hunter
Seeing that his only hope for safety
lay in fight, the hunter At once
dropped his gun and ran along the
hill until u friendly cave was discOy-
cred. and in this he took refuge. The
bear was unable to follow into The
black hole, but obstinatcly took a pos
ition at the entrance, which for two
days and nights he maintained. Oc-
cssionally the hunter would emerge
from his hiding place and look over,
expecting the animal had taken hrs
departure, but each time he returned
disappointed. With the imprisnn-
ment came hungry and thirst, and
finally the loss of reason. After forty
eight hours of waiting the bear finally
left, and the hunter slipped noise
lessly from the cave, and rushed as
fast as he could to an adjacent log
ging camp, where he was taken charge
Of, and with good treatment gained
his reason and related his wonderful
adventure. Search was then made for
the bear, bat nothing could be found
of him, although the mouth of the
cave was trampled hard where he had
paced back and forth doing sentinel
duty waiting for his victim.

The failure is reported to have been
caused 10y the prevailing stringency
OF the money market, and want Of
