Rule in England, hut Not Here.

Almost every nation possessing any
kind OF constitutional government has
borrowed from Great Britain its
methods of parliamentary practice,
which are based on historical, and in
some cases even prehistoric traditions
peculiar to the Anglo-Saxon race. I'm
fortunately, while the foreign states
have adopted and copied the exterior
forms OF their model, they have
neglected to pay adequate attention to
one of the main principles OF the Brit
ish parliamentary system.
The English have ever been OF the
opinion that in order to obtain an eff
cient form Of popular representation it
is absolutely necessary that the back
bone OF the latter should be formed by
the representatives OF agriculture, in
dustry, and commerce. The latter con-
stitute the foundation and basis OF
every common wealth, more especially
in the case of great democracies such
as the United States and France.
And yet 1t is just in these two
countries-both of them pre-eminent
by reason of their contributions to the
agriculture, industry and trade OF the

A Breath of Spring.


A dash of warm breathed, binding rain,
rush of sunshine through the gloom,
And DER the silent, ,drowsy earth the old gray
orchards break abloom.
A touch of mystic, hidden power, silken
cover thrilled in twain.
And lol a winged flame takes flight from
where creeping thing has lain.
Then swift the hills are made aware, of what
the valleys knew before
That Natures younglings are awake, and
spring is knocking at the door.

what he calls writing" One day after
having lost number of pencils, he asked
for still another. told him there were
no more to be had. He looked up at me
and said: "Then what do they call this
Pennsylvania for?"

An April Message.

The April showers lightly fall,
The light OF day gives place to gloom,
The shadows gather over all
And twilight fills the drawing room,
Wherein maiden stands by me-
We watch the rain drops silently.
All! this is her reception day,
But all the other guests have gone,
And yet l am constrained to stay,
l feel / am a favored one.
A subtle charm is over all
AS soft the April showers fall.
l strive to speak, but all words fail;
My voice l scarcely can commands;
But she divines the sweet old tale
And, holding out to me her hand,
Receives my love--ah well she may,
For this is her reception day,

The largest cnt of lumber ever
made in one day in the territory was
the result of yesterdays WORK at
the Tacoma mill. Tuesday after
noon it was decided to test the
full capacity Of the mill and ac-
cordingly every employe was rush
ing his particular branch for every
inch there was in it, when Globe
reporter stepped in during :he al
ternoon. Every man seemed as
anxious as the foreman to make
the mill break its record. In the
first two hours and half 10000
feet were sawed and in the next
two hours and a half, ll7,oo0.
The result OF the days work was
as follows: Scantling, 165,7S5
feet: machine guage, 227,9S0; re
saw, ~, 163; total, 465,928. While
Geo. E. Atkinson was foreman OF
the mill cut Of 415,00O 1eet was
made, and he claimed at the time
that it could never be done again.
The men were determined to make
cut of 100000 feet, and the 465,-
900 demonstrates the fact that the
Tacoma mill has capacity which
places it among the foremost lnm-
Der mills of the United States.
The largest cut ever claimed was
one of 100000 feet cut by some
eastern mill. Two hundred and
twenty men wero employed yester-
day in the mill and piling lumber
on the wharf. The engine is one
of 1880 horse power, and the
steam is produced from eighteen
oilers.-Globe.
