1t now seems that the little divis-
ion boom started by the editor of the
Walla Walla Union has gained two
journalistic advocates east of the
mountains and one, the Transcript,
on Puget Sound. Strange that peo-
pie claiming ordinary intelligence,
and alive to the benefits of a stat
government, should at the same time
advocate division of our Territory
A careful study of the past shows
that it becomes harder at each sue
cessiv0 session of Congress to gel
new states admitted to the Union; the
requisites in population and wealth
are gradually being raised to high
er standard. 4 measure is now
pending to positively prohibit the
further admission of new states un
less they have the full amount of pop
ulatlon required by law. An ex-
change, IN connection with this ques-

apt query: IF Washington Terri
tory has been thirty-fiye years ac
quiring her present 100000 inhabi-
tants. how long viii she remain in a
Territorial condition if divided?"
Comment is unnecessary; division
can have but one effect, viz: to
retard our organization of a
State government two or three
decades. It is a wild scheme that can
only find advocates among those of
very obtuse minds, or, those who have
some selfish purposes to serve. If
any choose to advocate it throu .sh the
spirit that prompted an cd farmer to
object to steamers because canoes
were good enough" for him, We have
no use for them. Let them fill be-
hind that the procession may move

1t is said that measures looking TO
the reduction of postage on ncwspa-
papers, If not the entire abolition Cf
postage thereon, Will be urgently
pushed in the present Congress. The
argument is that our government
favors education and the diffusion of
knowledge by every possible means,
and, as newspapers are among the
most potent educators of the age,
whatever cheapens their cost must be
productive eff public good and in har
mony with the settled policy of the
government. If any change is made,
it should include sweeping prohibi
ton of the circulation of all objec-
tionable publications such as the New
York Police Gazette and other jOurn-
ais that fatten on the prurient tastes
of a morbidly perverted public mind
Of course such papers keep up the
thin guise of exposing human frail-
ties only to hold them up to condem-.
nation. But the result is to make
people so familiar with crime and
RIGHTEOUSNESS that it loses half of its
hideousness; and the recital begets
in youthful minds propensities that
have a downward and degrading ten
dencY. By all means let respectable
newspapers be assisted in every way,
and If our postal system can be con
tinued self-sustaining and the postage
on newspapers be removed, it will be
q good thing to do.

Oregon Is rapidly taking Washing
ton Territory under her wing, politi-
cally speaking. Her congressman
has introduced our statehood bill; he
has secured for his brother the office
of Z. s. Marshal in this Territory; an
Oregon man is said to have been ap-
pointed as our Governor; one of our
own officials is trying TO get part of
the Puget Sound customs district
attached to Oregon: and presumably
the next step will be to have us an
nexed outright. Probably this would
be as we'll, and then we might be
spared the necessity of holding cleo
tions at all. There would be Just as
good reason for making US depend
ent of Oregon and allowing her poll
ticians to name all our officials, as to
turn the machine partly over to them.
If We do not secure a state govern
ment pretty soon there will scarcely
be vestige of our independence and
sslf-governing rights left. We ought
t be able to kick traitors out of office,
and serve notice on politicians of
esher states to keep their hands off
If the people of this Territory haN e
any rights it is time the fact WIS

The Farewell Kiss.

Among the confused mass who
were struggling and screaming we
noticed middle aged man and his
wife. Their conduct was in marked
contrast with that ofthe other passen-
gers. The panic which had seized
the others was not shared by them
but their blanched faces told that
they realized the peril which sur
rounded them. The only movement
of muscles or nerves was that produc-
ed by the chilling atmosphere. They
stood close together, their hands
claspcd in each others, as ifabout to
contemplate suicide together, and
thus fulfill the marital vow of stand
ing by each other in the varying tide
of lifu's fortunes and misfortunes.
AS the wreck careened with the gale
from one side to the other, and while
the spray and waves were drenching
them at every moment, the husband
turned and imprinted kiss upon the
companion of his life, and while thus
embraced a heavy sea broke over the
wreck and both were washed away
and not seen afterward. Mr.. Cook
says the scene was one which will
remain indelibly impressed upon his
memory until his dying day.-Wrcck

hous', although not strongly posted
will impart certain seriousness and
dignity to the general tone of the de-
liberations, which will help to quell
the demonstrations ofpolitical dOdg-
ers and cranks.
IT is ALSO a HOPEFUL OMEN
that Jupiter is in sextile with the as
cendant, and in scmi-scXtIle with
mercury. So that unless raShness
and precipitation prevail, which
hardly seems possible, the nominee
of the convention will be a gentleman
who will "iill the bill,' and occupy
the Presidential chair with more abil-
itv, courtesy and satisfaction than the
country has known since the Rcpub-
lican party has held the reins Of gov
ernment and controlled the public
chest.
SPEAKING OF THE PUBLIC CHEST
suggests an important difference be
tween the horoscopes of the two-con-
ventions. In. the Republican conven-
ton the moon is posted in the second
house showing that whoever may
be nominated abundant friends will
be forthcoming. In the Democratic
convention Mars, lord Of the second
house, is posted OH the cusp of the
yclfth-the house of. secret foes.
Moreover, Mars is in bad square as
pcct with Saturn in the ninth house,
showing that not only is there likely
to be IL paucity of the essential mu-
nitions of war, but that there will be
corrupt misapplication ofthem.
EEsPITE THESE DISADVANTAGES
the Democratic party will almost
surely win next November. Victory

liant stellary OF planets as will bC

News Copyright Misunderstood,

Some country papers, prefcrring TO
believe the lies ofa lot of self-cOnfcss-
cd thieves, rather than inform them
selves correctly, have worked them
selves into unnecessary excitement
and are misreprcsenting the Copy
right Bill as grossly as the interested |
thieves themselves, who are raising
this clamor that they may continue
their dcprcdatons. The measure
originated in the systematic stealing
from the New York papers for sever
al years past. Attic annual meeting
of the Western Associated Press at
Detroit, in October last, the matter
was considered, and committee was
appointed, Mr.. Watterson being made
Chairman without his knowledge,
to procure the passage by Congress of
a copyright law to protect newspa-
pers in their property. Twenty-four

Western Associated Press buys its
Eastern and foreign news from the
New York Associated Press. This
