AN EXPLANATION,

As Is doubtless well known to most
patrons Of The Astorian residing within
the city of It's publication, but not so
generally understood on the outside, the
Office and publishing department of the
paper have been heretofore separated
from the composing and press room by
more than mile of distance; the two
departments being in different build
ings, located at opposite ends of the
city. With the view Of improving the
paper and making It a better-than' ever
news and advertising medium to It's
patrons, the proprietor determined some
time ago to combine all departments of
the paper under one roof, and to this
end new and extensive improvements
to The Astorlan building have been in
progress for some weeks past, Since the
last issue of the paper the change has
been Effected, Lut SO great was the labor
Qnvolvlng among other things the sub
stltutIon of electric for steam power),
and the working time so limited, that II
has been found impossible to avoil some
slight ahbreviation In the size Of the
paper at this issue, Before the next
publication everything will be complete
ly adjusted. and ample atonement win
be made for the present shortcoming by
an improved paper in the future.

JOHN ADAMS,

On his last annual message to congress.)
"I observe, with much satisfaction,
that the product of the revenue during
the present year has been more consid-
cradle than during any former period.
This result affords conclusive evil
dence of the great resources of the
country, and of the wisdom and effi-
cheney of the measures which have been
adopted by congress for the protection
of commerce and preservation OF the
public credit"

Deifying a Chinese woman.

1t is possible for any Chinaman, or
even any Chinese woman, to become a
deity by paying for the honor. "A few
years ago a rich and devout Chinese
lady died in Soochoo.. Her friends
thought that an apotheosis was no
more than her due, and commu nicated
with the priests, who interviewed the
gods on the subject, and discovered
that the god of the left little toenail
had no wife. The old lady was accord
ingly married to his godship, and is
now enrolled as the goddess of the
left little toenail." The honor cost the
old lady's estate over five thousand

Arizona and New Mexico.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-With the ses-
sion of congress drawing to close, and
all attention likely to be concentrated
upon the tariff bill, it is not considered
probable the senate will act upon either
the Arizona or New Mexico state bills
before the final adjournment. This was
the understanding when the bills were
reported from the committee on terri
tories. The dates of admission in the
case of Arizona and the constitutional
convention in the case of New Mexico
have been so deferred in the senate bills
that no change will be necessary in case
of postponement. The provision in the
Arizona bill is for admission August 1,
1895, while the convention in New
Mexico is not to meet until July /, 1895.
Governor Hughes is of the opinion the
bill will have to be changed to provide
for a new constitution before it can pass
the senate. This opinion he bases upon
the opposition he finds to exist in the
senate to the constitution adopted in
1891, on account of the irrigation and
silver payment features.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug. 6-The state
election is now in progress. Reports
from counties SO far indicate. the new
election laws are working smoothly.
The confidence of both sides is amazing.
Each party is banking strong on getting
the negro vote. A report just in from
Elmore, a large negro county, says the
negroes there who were'expected to vote
almost solidly with the democrats have
astonished everybody by giving the op-
position their unanimous support. A
Kolbite said today his party was sure to
carry the legislature. The democrats
figure out that they will have at least
six majority in the legislature unless the
negroes go back on them.

What Is Food for One Man Is Rankest
Poison for Another.
Human nature continues to be as
queer as it ever was. The mayor of
Portland, Me-, in an address at recent
temperance meeting, says the, New
York Post, told of a young Englishman
who came to that city seven years ago in
order to escape the temptations of open
saloons, which he couldno resist and
which threatened his ruin, and who
has been sober ever since, and has risen
from earning four dollars week to
salary of twenty-five hundred dollars
year. On the other hand, we have been
told by a clergyman in another Maine
city of a young man who was being
ruined there by the temptations of the
''social clubs,'' which took the place of
saloons as drinking places, and who
came to New York for salvation. which
he found there, because the open rum
shop had no charms for him In like
manner many of the most thoughtful
and conservative citizens of Des Moines
Ia, have signed the petition for the
Introduction of saloons in that city un-
der the new liquor law, because they
believe that the change will diminish
the terrible amount of drunkenness
among our young men which has pre-
vailed under the prohibitory law and
the club system. These instances show
how differently the same influences
affect different persons and how impos-
sible it is to find any system which is

1ndependent Catholic Churches.

BAIr1Mo1E, Aug. 6.-Three thousand
members of the Holy Rosary Catholic
church have decided to disregard in the
future the demands of the cardinal, and
to establish an Independent Catholic
church. They propose to place the
management in the hands of a COM
mittee, and to engage their own pastor.
Two of the members were sent to
Cleveland to investigate how the affairs
of the independent church in that city
were conducted, and they have returned
with glowing report. They say they
will have no trouble getting a
priest. About so priests are ready to
leave as soon as they can get churches.

In the senate.

WASHINGTON, Aug, 5.-In the senate
today a resolution was introduced by
Mills, democrat, of Texas, and laid on
the table temporarily, declaring that in
the revision of the existing system of
national taxation the following prin-
ciples should be observed:
First-All taxes are burdens on tax
payers, and can only be rightfully i'm
posed to raise revenue to support the
government.
Second-When taxes are imposed on
imported goods the rate should be so
low as not to materially restrict impor-
tation.
Third-In selecting articles to be taxed,
only those ready for consumption should
be chosen, and those imported for
manufacture or remanufacture should be
exempt.
The resolution offered August 1, by
Chandler, looking to the investigation
of the Dominion Coal Company, of Nova
Scotia, and the substitute offered by
Mills, providing that a special COM
mite of five should be directed to re-

of congress is or was interested in any
company engaged in mining coal in any

engaged in transporting coal which
would come into competition with the
Dominion Coal company, and whether
it's removal would reduce the price of
coal to consumers, and what section of
the country would be benefited by its
retention, were taken up. A discussion
arose between Mills and Chandler as to
whether the old sugar committee would
be appointed. Mills favored the reten-
ton of the old committee because, he
said, it was honest and capable, and
recently reported that charges made
against senators had not been sustained.
els that the reason the senator from
Texas favors this committee?' inquired
Chandler.
Mills denied he was influenced by any
such motives and expressed willing
ness to have new committee appointed
if Chandler preferred.
The resolution to investigate the
Dominion Coal Company went over
under the rules without action.

TariT COnfsress far Apart Ever.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The democratic
tariff conferees today resumed the work
of trying to reach an agreement. At II
noon, no progress had been made.
Secretary Carlisle has recently been
called into frequent consultation. Sat-
urday night he made certain suggestions
concerning the administrative features
proposed by compromise, and it is un-
derstood the conference have been con-
sidering their bearing upon the questions
at issue. The coal and iron ore questions
have been taken up. It is understood
the conference have indicated willing
ness to make concession as to the time
the duty shall continue, but not lesser
amount. They are understood to be
holding out for the terms of the house
bill. The Louisiana senators are de-
manding a continuation of at least
part of the sugar bounty for the present
year. There is increased talk of pressing
free sugar bill in case of the failure of
the tariff bill which is probably intended
largely to bring the Louisiana senators
into line.
When the tariff conferees took a re-
cess for lunch today, the house confer
ees seemed to think an agreement was
in sight. The senate conferees and those
senator's with whom they advise and con-
suit, seemed to think the prospects not so
bright, and an ultimate disagreement
will be reported. 1t is also stated that
within the next two days a report of
either agreement or disagreement must
be made. Coal and iron ore were the
articles in dispute today. The contest
is very stubbornlY made on both sides.
