HONEST JOURNALISM.

We have on our desk before US score
OF schemes to increase our circulation.
Not one OF them concerns the publication
OF a newspaper. Not one OF them offers
one more column Of news to our readers
nor increases the value Of our advertising
space q penny. Each scheme, IL employed,
would be a confession of weakness.
One OF the schemes IL history OF the
United States, which is offered to us on
easy terms, we to sell 1t to our readers at
an increased price. 1t is an inducement
to enter the book business. II involves
the abomiuable coupon scheme, which Is
a humbug pure and simple from the
newspaper point lof view. Another
sc heme is "a sixteen page booklet to be
disposed OF to our readers "as a weekly
supplement, OF say, print sly coupons
and charge ten cents for the complete
book" The book would cost US six or
seven cents, and we would sell II for ten,
making a profit OF three or four cents
per copy, plus the profit on the six papers
containing the six coupons. For each
sale OF book the profit would be almost
as much as the original wholesale price of
the book itself.
This is doing newspaper business under
false pretences. But II is unnecessary to
enumerate the score and odd schemes that
have been offered us "to Increase our cir
culation," each one Of which is foreign to
the reputable business OF publishing
newspaper.
That reaction will sooner or later take
place in this method OF commencing
newspaper to the community I'm which it
circulstes, and that the newspaper that
conducts its business in the mean time
along Legitimate lines OF journalism will
stand higher in public esteem than ever,
IS as sure a. that "honesty is the best
policy" And while 1t is the duty OF a
properly conducted newspaper to deal
fairly and honorably with the public, II
is no less the duty OF the public to sup
port the newspaper so conducted.

Brave Sailors Of Wrecked Steamer Reach Me
Coast In Search Of Aid.

ST. JoHN's ~ r., March 12.-A lifeboat
belonging to the disabled and overdue
steamer Briscoe. containing First Mate
Mackey and four men, in an exhausted
condition. reached here yesterday after
noon.
They reported the Brisooe lying about
% miles south-southwest Of Cape Race.
They left her at midday, Friday, but after
pulling foYG hours 1t was discovered that
the compass had gone wrong The COM
pass defect Was not discovered until the
Briscoe was again sighted. The boat was
again launched Saturday, and from IL
O'Clock that day until their arrival st the
signal station vest erday the men had not
had morsel of food 10 eat.
They also suffered considerably durin ng
the night from cold aud were slightly
frostbitten. First Mate Mackey made the
following statement concerning the Bris
GOES voyage:
1--WE left Hamburg Dec. ., but were
forced TO put back to Queenstown for re-
pairs. We left there Jan. 81 and spcoun-
tered terrific weather. The bridge was
gone and the deckhouse, ETC., destroyed, I,
Nothing was left standing but the two
lower masts and the funnel. Then the
starboard bow was stove In by the ice, but
the compartments were still tight. She
was full Of water forward, however.
"Our supply Of coal ran out 10 days
after we left Queenstown. The steamer
Clunda took the Briscoe In tow March
2, but left her the following morn
ing, after towing her l20 miles. Then a
repetition of our former experience set in.
A new danger now confronted us. The
supply Of food ran out and the Grew were
nearly reduced 10 starvation.
"There were no provisions on board,
save a little bread, a small quantity Of
-four and some peas. A small fire was
kept In the galley to prevent the men
from perishing from cold. The other
fires were let 20 out for lack of fuel"
The tug Ingraham left here to search
for the Briscoe as soon as the above news
was received. The coast steamer Virginia
Lake also sailed from Trepassey and will
endeavor 10 find the disabled steamer.
One Of these two will probably get her
very soon. The Briscoe carries cargo Of
manure salt. She should have arrived at

ARMED MEN LANDED.
Great Britain's Part In the Disturbances on the
MOSQUITO Reservation.

SAVANNAH, March 1s.-The report Of
the landing OF the British at Bluefields, in
the Mosquito reservation, was confirmed
by the arrival of the steamer Elliot, Cap
tain A. Brown. The Elliot left Bluefields
March 4. She arrived there Feb. "a. Just
one day too late to witness the arrival Of
the Nicaraguans.
Captain Brown says the Nicaraguans
entered Bluefelds Feb. 25 and %
He did not know their exact numerical
strength, but there was an armed force Of
four or five hundred Of them at Blue
fields when he arrived. They simply ell
tered under arms and without any resist
anoe on the part Of the natives; they
hoisted the Nioaraguan flag over the Gus
tom house and over the other public
buildings The flags remained up during
the time the Elliott was IN port. There
was no fighting.
The Mosquitoes were considerably ter
rifled by the presence of 30 large an armed
force, as they were practically without
protection In the city. Captain Brown
says the name OF the British warship
there is not the Cleopatra, but the Tomas
The Mosquitoes, he states, fearing they
might be attacked by the Nicaraguans,
appealed to the Tomas for protection. On
March the Tomas sent three boatloads
OF men ashore. They were armed with
carbines and cutlasses and carried with
them two gatling guns and three field
pieces. There was some understanding
between the Mosquito chief and the officer
In charge Of the Tomas, the chief asking
that the men be landed for the safety
and protection of the people.
There was no fight of any kind between
March l, the day the men landed, and
March 4, the day the Elliot sailed. Cap
tain Brown says there was little excite
ment among the people.
The Mosquitoes were frightened when the
Nicaraguans first entered, but after the
landing of the British troops all excite
ment subsidized. and the people seemed
willing TO rest easy and let things go on
as they were until the trouble between
the Indians and the Nicaraguans is set
tied

BE CHEERFUL.

There is just one great obstacle to our
getting back TO the good times OF last
year in the removal of which everybody
can lend helping hand. The people are
constantly being told that they are In n
most pitiful condltion,land naturally their
spirits are becoming more and more de-
pressed in consequence. The thing to do
is for all to look for brightness and sun
shine, instead OF brooding In the darkness
that is largely figment OF an over
wrought fancy.
This grand country OF ours has not yet
gone to the dogs, and 1t is not going to by
any means. II is true that with the rest
OF the world we have suffered severely
since last Summer, bat we have small
cadse for feeling despondent.
On the contrary, we, OF all the nations,
have substantial reasons for shaking of
any gloomy anticipations as to the future
We need not fear the out break OF q gen.
eral war, as do the people OF Europe al
this moment. We are at peace with al
the world, and are likely TO remain SO fol
a long time to come. Our crops are going
to be abundant, and II the fields OF Russia
France, Germany, Austria and ltaly
should be overrun by vast armies, sno
their fruits trsmpled to ruin, we vii
dou uptless be able to make good the loss
out OF our well-stocked warehouses.
There is only one thing that can be sale
with any show of reason to throw doubt
on the future OF business among US, anc
this Is the still unsettled tariff, but ever
in this case we know pretty we'll wha
will be done, and it is almost an insult tC
our manufacturers 10 doubt their abilit,
to adapt themselves to the new condition.
with which they are confronted.

Investigation Called For.

NEW YORK. March IAN informal
meeting OF stock breeders was held here
to take steps TO call national convention
of stock raisers TO investigate the exist
ence OF tuberculosis among cattle In this
state and TO call the bureau OF animal
industry at Washington TO close quaran'
tine all cattle in this state pending such
investigation. The state board OF health,

number of cattle suffering from this
disease in an effort TO suppress IL, but
owing TO the lack Of legislative appro-
priation has been obliged to relax It's
efforts in that direction.
