ooREAN's POOR KING.
His Barbarous Majesty Prey to Al
Sorts of Belief

From the Philadelphia Press.
Chemulpo Corea, July "a, via San
Francisco The favoritism shown by tha
King of Corea for his minister Of state,
Clarence Greathouse, the American, has
been 50 marked Of late that Yuan, the
Chinese resident who superintends the
collection of the national revenue, has
been growing. Mr.. Greenhouse was the
only man who dared ride in state through
the great central gate of the palace. Any
Corean who would be so rash as TO at
tempt this adventure would be immedi-
ately buried in quicklime and burned to
death or loose his head and say his pray
ers in another Hades.
Seriously, a noted lieutenant in the
navy told the correspondent that the
famous American tested the kings food
before his majesty dared touch it, aud
proved that it was not poisonous, laid
down in the kings bed and examined
all his clothing before he donned it. But
even with his patient and painstaking
carefulness the king never went 70 rest
| until the kingly cock crowed the coming
OF dawn. Then the king, thinking he
might dare to 90 to sleep, enioined Mr..
| Greathouse to sit by his side until he
actually fell asleep.
This farce, the lieutenant says, was
enacted on the morning of July %. The
! king, however, had just dropped into
| doze when he found his palace taken
| by the japanese and his confidential
adviser prisoners of war. The palace
was surrounded by 400 Japanese troops,
/ and neither the king nor Mr.. Greathouse
! was permitted to communicate with the
| outside world.

DEMOCRATIC WAY OUT.

Half dozen Democratic senators are said to have determined to oppose the tariff bill and there are very grave fears now among the administration forces that the bill will be a failure. The Democratic senators who are said to be into the scheme to obstruct the passage of the bill are those who are either open enemies of the president or who at the most cannot be said to be very friendly to him. But if they suc- ceed in what the free traders fear they have undertaken they will prove to be his greatest friends. Not that the de- feat of the tariff bill will save the ad- ministration. It will not. Nothing can save the administration. But the defeat of this bill will save the country and will thus render the condemnation of the administration less severe.
 No sane man can doubt that the country is now opposed to the Demo- cratic tariff policy. Everywhere where elections have been held in the last year Republicans have been victorious. There can be no question that there has been mighty change of opinion since 1892 and it is the part of good sense for the party in power to delay action upon the tariff bill until next winter, thus giving the people chance to express themselves in the election of @ new congress. This ought to be a government of the people. What the people want they ought to have. The evidence now is that they do not want Democratic tariff reform" If the Democrats persist in passing the Wilson bill they can expect nothing else than overwhelming defeat next fall. They will get that anyhow but there is pos sibility of their saving something from the wreck If they pull up now. The wise Democrats are they who are trying to prevent action on the tariff bill.

A PAPER MILL.

The following suggestions from the Prescott Courier is worthy of considera- tion. It voices the sentiments of every newspaper proprietor in the territory, and the demand ought to be sufficient for news and wrapping paper to keep a small factory busy: Arizona needs 8 paper manufacturing establishment. Excellent paper can be made from the prodigious crop of sunhower plants which cover the land. The Couraer is prompted to these remarks by having to pay about $50 freight on shipment of $l00 worth of newspaper from Denver to Prescott. We would rather buy the paper from manufactory here in Pres colt and pay the factory the entire freight money in fact, we would gladly make the change on those conditions, as the money paid out would circulate at home and we would get dollar or two of it back as it passed around"

THE FORMATION of Pioneers society

THE FORMATION of Pioneers society to be later merged into a Territorial Historical society, has been suggested. For secretary of the society no better man could be selected than Col. Charles D. Poston. As 8 Pioneers so- ciety the work could be carried on un- til next winter, when the legislature should provide an appropriation for the maintainance of an Historical society. It is something that all states have and Arizona is particularly rich in material of a suita ble kind. while Col. Poston is pre-eminently qualified to take the work in charge.
