POSTMASTER GENERAL WANAMAKER
has been ever on the lookout for
chances for improving the postal SER
vice. He has four important projects
on hand now which he would like to
accomplish, but can not without the
consent of Congress. First, a limited
contract postal telegraph. This does
not involve government control of the
telegraphic system of this country. 1t
only involves making contracts with
existing lines for using them to send
such messages as may be desired, BY
this plan one could send kilograms for
one cent a word. Second, the utiliza-
tion OF the telephone system for shor-
ter distances, and ramifying into every
neighborhood. He would give us five
cent telephone messages. Third, he
would have rural free delivery of let
ters in all villages and thiclily settled
farming districts. No need of going
TO the post-ofi1ce to get your mail.
Fourth, the use of letter-boxes for the
collection of mail from everybody's
door in city, town, and village, from
every house that chooses to have a
letter-box. No need Of going to the
post office to deposit your letters.

A Dedision In the Church Matter.
A despatch in the papers Saturdc

A despatch in the papers Saturday
dated at Cleveland, Ohio, says that a
decision was given in the Evangelical
Association case in the Cuyhoga Coun-
ty Circuit Court Friday morning.
Judge Upson held that the Buffalo
Conference acted in accordance with
the Church Discipline, as it has always
been construed by the Church, when
it left the appointment of the place
for holding the next general conference
in the hands of the Board of Publica-
ton. The board fixed upon Indian
apolis, and the conference held there
by the adherents of Bishops Bowman
and Esher was the true general con
ference and its acts binding.
This was a sad blow to Bishop Dubs
and his large following. They took
exceptions and asked the court for a
special finding of facts.

CAUGHT FOUL.

Lord how this world is given to lying" Z"
One of the city councilmen during the re-
cent controversy over the bids of the city
advertising, presented a report dictated by
ex-CounciIman Murphy wherein was the
assertion that the state law prescribed a
certain rate that should be paid for adyer-
tising and that said rate was fly cents per
square for the first insertion and twenty
five cents for each subsequent insertion
This assertion, coupled with the low rate
which the city advertising was contracted
for last year, created false impression
among those who have not taken the time
to look into the matter, and who are con
tending that the bids of the daily papers
were too high. To those who have thus
been misIed in their belief, THE TRIBUNE
will state that there is no such law, spec
flying the rate that shall be charged for ad-
Vertising. The law which the councilman
probably had reference to, and the only
one which is in onr state laws, is that which
governs the state printer, and only pre-
seribes what he shall receive. 1t has no
reference to newspapers.
In most of the eastern states the legisla-
lures have passed laws governing the com
pensation to be received for state, county
and municipal advertising, but the rates
established are far from being those that
were quoted by the councilman. In Ne
braska, where the wages for labor are much
lower than this state, the rate established
by law is 81 per square for the first inser-
ton and fifty cents for each subsequent
insertion, and in Illinois it is even higher,
being $150 and rs cents.

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION:
FOR THE WOMEN.

Mrs. Alice Houghton, of Spokane,
superintendent ofthe women S department,
state work, and member of the United
States board of woman managers has IS
sued circular to the women of Washing
ton suggesting that arrangements be made
as early as possible for the formation of
clubs Of women, with the aim to expedite
the work by concerted action among them
selves and with other like organizations.
1t is proposed to represent at the exposi-
tion every industry and enterprise carried
on in whole or in part by women, with
facts and statistics showing the share
borne by women in the progress of the
state. 1t is desirable that the highest and
best quality of our artistic talent become
engaged and interested in the various lines
OF sculpture, painting, carving, home
decorations, drawing, needle work, etc.,
bearing in mind always that only the
highest merit will bring honor in the field
of various competition and under the
strong light of criticism to which it must
be subjected. The women of Washington
are possessed of the ability and culture
which, being excited to action, will pro
duee an exhibit in the women's depart
ment of the exposition that will take first
place. Mrs. Houghton concludes her
circular as follow:
America, rich in resources, invites the
world to visit her in 1898, and present,
each to the other its various achievements
in all branches of industry. Let us as a
state unitedly assist in giving these guests
n n To oJt
young in years, that by intelligence, per
severance and careful foresight, we can
make for ourselves a record that history
will be glad and proud to honor"

ENGLISH BLUFF.

Are the English aristoerats trying to
bluff us into fixing things the way they
want them anent the Behring sea contro-
yersy. It looks that way. "A very signifi-
cant dispatch from London says Sir Stat
ford Northcote in the house of commons
called the attention of the house to the
state Of defense at Esquimalt on Vancouver
island. He spoke particularly Of the steps
being taken to secure completion of the
works required for the protection of the
harbor. Stanhope, secretary Of state for
war, agreed with the statement made by
Northcote, In the course of his remarks
he said the Importance of Esquimalt was
enormously increased during the past few
years. The place, he declared, should be
defended and he greatly regretted the de-
fenses were not yet completed. The gov
ernment was anxious that Esquimalt
should be fortified and it was willing to
spend its money to bring about that result.
Northcote had prefaced his remarks on the
defenses at Esquimalt with motion that
steps at once be taken to complete the
works; but when the motion was put to
vote it was defeated without division.

Two hundred and twenty three electoral
votes are necessary for victory in NoYem-
Der. The Cleveland states of 1888 have 175
votes and those carried by Harrison and
Morton have 269 electors. Should New
York go democratic, other old states vote
as they did four years ago and the new
states be carried by the republicans, the
democratic total would be 211 against 233
electoral votes for the republican nominee.
1t would, therefore, be possible for the re-
publicans to win without New York, and
have ten electoral votes to spare. With
the division among the New York demo
Gratis, the empire state will undoubtedly be
carried for the republicans. The republi-
can outlook could not be better.
