TRUTH.
BY FRANCIS s. SMITH.


Ifyou have truth to say,
Say IL always, come what may.
Say II flrmly-do not fear
Error flies when TRUTHS near.
When vile SANDER stalks abroad,
Backed by trickery and fraud.
lie who fears to speak his mind,
Is no friend to human kind.
Speak the truth whate'er betide,
Though your enemies derlde,
They will have a feeling strong
That you are right. and they are wrong.
But do not purchase sure remorse
BY using language blunt and coarse
Truth RACES not-she shows her might
In words both simple and polite.
Speak the truth and take the risk
Truth is real, not myth.
1t is certain that lie
WIN expire-truth cannot die.
Ohl It's pitiful to see
The sickly shade ofmisery
That marks the bastard liars face
When truth has published his disgrace.
Speak the truth, and then you can
Undaunted face your fellow-man.
Truth seeks no hiding place, for she
Is honest, fearless, frank. and free.
Truth had herblrth where angels dwell,
While the first liar was born In hell.
Then. honor, vlrtute, reason, say,
Which Of the two should man obey.

THR BLAOK DIAMONDS AsOAPG
Nothing Officially Known In Washington
Assistant Secretary WhaFtOn's Opinion,

Nothing Officially Known In Washington,
Assistant Secretary Wharton's Opinion,
WASHINGTON, D, O., August 5.-Act'
ing Secretary Wharton was asked by an
Associated Press reporter this morning
II the State Department had anything to
say respecting the escape Of the British
sealer Black Diamond recently captured
by the revenue cutter Rush, and which
sailed into Victoria, B, O., q British port,
instead OF into sitka, as ordered by the
captain Of the Rush, "The Depart
ment," Mr.. Wharton replied, "has not
been advised OF the seizure of the Black
Diamond or any other vessel has no
news whatever upon the subject, and
therefore has no statement TO make in
regard TO its future action In the matter"
nHave you seen the statement that II
was the desire to let the Black Diamond
escape alter taking Its catch OF seals, and
therefore but one man was put aboard
her from the Rush ?"
"No," said Mr.. Wharton, ~ have not
seen that statement and have no means
OF knowing that It Is true or false.
Continuing Mr.. Wharton said: This
whole matter OF the seizure OF these ves-
sells, 80 far as 1t has gone, Is under the
control and direction Of the Treasury
Department, Ifthere Is any blame at
taChipg TO the seizures itmust be laid at
the doors Of Congress, It passed law
the President to issue a proc.
lamation insuring in Behrlng sea the
same protection over seals and fur bear
ing animals as Is accorded the fur bear
ing inhabitants Of Alaska and the waters
thereof by the general act on fisheries,
and that law is simply being enforced,
That is what we are here for, to carry
out tho laws that Congress enacts. So
far this question has not become an in.
ternational one. The State Department
has not been informed officially Of any
part OF the proceedings and therefore
has nothing TO act upon"
