1T is CURIOUS.

Mr. Waldorf Astor's Pail Mall Gazette
says:
1t is curious how an American sportsman is
never satisfied unless every possible condition
is in his favor. The fact that Gould refuses to
take part In the proposed match will convince
the English that the VigilaDt is an unworthy
holder Of the America cup.
Mr.. Astor's English journal serves a
useful purpose in London. 1t says things
which London journa ais may be imagined
to think but which they are too consid-
crate to say. While the idea has found
lodgment in some American minds that
Mr.. Gould would not be discOnsolate if the
Britannia should win a majority of the
races both yachts contested, Mr.. Astor's
London journal has been the only one in
that country, so far as noted, 10 intimate
that in Difference to the Prince of Wales
Mr.. Gould might be throwing races. The
petulance displayed by the Pail Mall
Gazette can barely be attributed to
chagrin at the defeat of the Vigilant Mr..
Astor has long since passed the stage in
the transformation from an American to
al Englishman when he could experience
modification at any mishap that might
occur to any representative of his native

PURE DELUSIoN.

An Oregon paper has just discovered
that the notion that gold has appreciated
in the last twenty years is pure delusion.
The Oregon paper is about four months
later in reaching this conclusion than Mr..
Edward Atkinson, writer of whom, pei

heard. 1t is little odd though that our
Oregon contemporary, which is nothing If

State Treasurer.
Bangor Whig.l

Las. week Hon. F. M. Simpson was in
this city comforting with the Republicans
of this section in connection with the office
of State treasurer. On his return from the
West Mr.. Simpson was urged by many
friends to enter the field as the eastern
candidate, but at that time John l.. Crosby
Esq, was reported as candidate and Mr..
Simpson called upon him before deciding
the question as to his own candidacy. Ii
Mr.. Crosby intended to enter the field, Mr..
Simpson did not propose to be a candidate
and divide eastern strength, and so in
formed him, but Mr.. Crosby said that he
had no intention of beng candidate fol
the office. This left clear field so far as
the east is concerned, and after consulta.
ton with leading Republicans, Mr.. Simp.
son decided to enter the race.
M. Simpson enjoys the confidence and
esteem of his tow nsmen in high degree,
they having repeatedly elected him to posi-
tons of.tru,t and responsibility. He has
served one term of two years in the House,

petitors.


The decision of the Senate committee ap-
pointed for the purpose OF thoroughly inves-
tigating the bribery charges and the sugar
trust, to hold its sessions behind closed doors,
indicates desire on the part of its majority
to do little whitewashing. 1t is probable,
too, that the Democratic managers fear the
effect of the revelations that will be made,
il the hearings are conducted with
the honest purpose of eliciting truth,
upon the congressional elections to
be held the coming fall. To be
sure the announcements made that complete
stenographic reports will be made of the
testimony, which will in due time be pub
li.hed in full, but nobody anticipates the priv
ilege of perusing the somewhat bulky vol
ume it will probably make before 1895
This will make little difference, however.
The people of this country have had fully
enough experience with the incompetepcy
of the Democratic party to deal with ma
tional affairs, to determine their votes next
fall, without waiting for revelations of the
corruption generally believed to exist
among its representatives in Congress.

A STRANGE CASE.
How an Enemy was Fooled.

The following graphic statement will be
read with intense interest: Il cannot describe
the numb, creepy sensation that existed In my
arms, hands and legs. l had to rub and beat
those parts until they were sore, to overcome
in measure the dead feeling that had taken
possession Of them. In addition, l had
strange weakness in my back and around my
waist, together with an indescribable gone
feeling i'm my stomach. Physicians said 1t
was creeping paralysis, from which, accord
ing to their universal conclusion. there is no
relief. Once it fastens upon a person, they
say, il continues its insidious progress until
II reaches a vital point and the sufferer dies.

The Hon. John f. Russell of Massa-
chusetts has returned from his long visit at
the capital in thoroughly disguised frame
of mind. He found that Grover Cleveland
was about the only Democrat in Washing
ton with whom his opinions had any weight
and Mr.. Cleveland's good opinion counted
for very little, so strained are the
relations between the chief executive
and the leaders of his party in
both branches of Congress. Mr.. Russell's
special mission was to secure the placing of
coal upon the free list in the new tariff bill.
But coal is now quite largely Southern
product, and the genial Mr.. Russell soon
found that the opinions of Northern Demo-
Gratis had very little weight where Southern
interests were concerned. As a lobbyist
Mr.. Russell was not success. His elo-
quence in the committee rooms was qnite
wasted, and, when he returned home. the
coal schedule had been so amended by the
Senate finance committee as to leave duty
of fifty cents per ton. Mr.. Russelrs heart
naturally bled for the Canadian coal
mines thus cruel Disseminated against, in
favor of a great American industry; but he
did not see how he could possibly change
the situation aud so, wisely, returned to the
bosom of his family. 1t is sad for man
to awake to the fact, in the autumn of bis
life. that he is indeed superannuated old
politician unable to inspire a following
and without influence in party councils.
No wonder Mr.. Russell is disgruntled and
that his recent references to the Democrat
ic party have not been Of very comph-
mentary character. 1t is to be hoped, how
ever, that he will humbly submit to the log
ic of the situation; accept without further
bubble the fact that Democratic rule is
Southern sway, and seek in the quietude of
pastoral pursuits, release from the excite
ments and annoyances of political life, for
which the growing irIitability of his ad-
vanced years has go obviously untitled him.
