The Mission of the Newspaper.

The clergymen of the period have had
much to say, first and last, about the
mission Of the public newspaper. None,
however, has better set forth its work
than the reverend gentleman who was
the orator at the Attleboro celebration.
Said Mr.. Wales, with perfect truth:
''It is the mission Of the newspaper
to publish news. Now, it is a fact that,
from the man who waters his milk to
the cold blooded murderers, all degrees
of criminal mankind want news sup
pressed. Liars, thieves, scandal mon
gers, deceivers, burglars, fighters, adul-
terers, gamblers, drunkards and gentle
men rascals all cry out against the news
publishers. Their business is disturbed
by the enterprise of newspapers. But no
one who is open and honest and free
from any faint of transgression wants
news suppressed.
1t would be blessed thing for more
than one congregation if those clerics
who are accustomed to carp at modern
journalism, in season and out Of season,
would put themselves in possession Of

the newspaper and read, mark, learn
and inwardly digest them.-Boston

. The North Sea Canal.

The eyes of the world will be turned
to Kiel, the northern port of Germany,
when the emperor goes there June 20
to open the great ship canal. The ves-
sells of all nations will be there, inolud-
ing some from the American navy, and
Emperor William will have the opportu-
nifty of his lifetime to exploit himself.
We may be assured he will not neglect it.
The Importance of this canal will be
appreciated at a glance by the reader
who looks upon map and sees that it
makes an island out Of the peninsula Of
Denmark. Formerly ships from the
North sea to the Baltic sea were obliged
to pass up around the northern coast Of
Denmark and through the dangerous
and stormy Kattegat. The canal across
the Prussian province Of Sleswick-
Holstein will shorten the distance sew
eral hundred miles and give safe and
comfortable passage. It will furnish an
outlet for Russian ships from the Baltic
that will crafty at least part of Russia's
ambition to be merchant marine pow
or. 1t will be something Of guarantee
of peace between Russia and Germany.
The ground was broken for this great
enterprise eight years ago by the aged
Emperor William. 1t begins at Bruns-
buttel, near the mouth of the Elbe, on
the west, and runs slightly north Of east
TO a terminus near the port Of Kiel at the
western and German end of the Baltic
sea. 1t is 63 miles long. There are only
two locks, one at each end. Every foot
Of it is built as splendidly and solidly
as German architects know how to
build. That it was constructed at COM
paratively so small cost is a credit to
the patriotism and honesty of engineers
and contractors. The total cost was
$37, 440, O0O Naturally enough the men
who took the contracts for the work
were Hollanders. What they do not
know about making canals nobody else
knows. The laborers, those who shovel
ed the dirt and quarried the rocks, were,
rs might have been expected, Italians
and some Swiss.
The canal is 80 feet deep, and the lar
gest ships Of the world can pass safely
through it. The highest speed allowed
is 5H miles an hour. twill require 10
hours to go from Brunsbuttel to Kiel.
Four railways and ten carriage roads
pass over the canal. The bridges are
high enough to be above the masts Of
sailing vessels An average Of 5000
men day worked eight years con-
structing this great canal

JACOBSON'S BILL FAILED.
Country Members Divided ON His ChRtte
Mortgage Measure.

Country Members Divided ON His ChRttel
Mortgage Measure.
The house spent two hours and half
of the morning session defeating the
jacobson chattel mortgage bill, the
vote resulting 40 to 4S-8 less than the
necessary majority. The situation in
itself was rather novel one, for, in
stead Of the issue being country VS..
city, it was country VS.. country. The
bill sought to amend the present mort
gage laws in the interest Of good bust
ness by requiring all chattel mortgages
to be filed with the register Of deeds.
Argument for the bill was made on the
ground that the safer money was made
the lower the rate would be.
The Constitutional Convention.
On motion of Mr.. Staples the house
took from the table and passed H. +.
S54, providing for submission to the
people Of the question OF calling con-
stitutional convention. The bill pro-
vides for the calling Of the convention
by the next legislature in case the poo
pie approved of the convention at the
next election.
At the afternoon session the house
devoted it's time to the calendar and "a
bills were passed and few killed.
Among those to suffer was Mr.. Fur
longs bill proposing an amendment to
the constitution SO that 800, 600 Of the
railroad gross earnings tax might be
transferred to the road and bridge
fund. The following passed:
TO appropriate money for opening

A CURIOUS ACCIDENT.
A Hundred Tons of Paving Stones Break
Down a Wharf and Go Into the Dock.

A curious accident happened at 1.30 p
m., Monday. The schooner Julia S
Bailey, Captain Sprague of Gardiner,
came into this port on August 2 in dis
tresg. She was bound from Sullivan,
Me, to Philadelphia with cargo of
paving stones, two hundred tons in all.
When the schooner arrived here it was
found necessary to land the cargo, and
accommodation was obtained at Deake's
wharf, at the rate of ten cents ton for
wharfage. This wharf is built with a
stone wall and solid filling.
Captain Sprague got his paving out.
and yesterday about the whole of the two
hundred tons was on the wharf. Sudden
ly the great weight crushed the wall out
ward, and about hundred tons of the
paving went into the dock. The situation
is such, also, that the position of the re-
mainder is precarious.
The hundred tons that hav3 gone into
the dock are worth about $500. The re-
covery of these stones from the bottom of
the dock will be a costly work. Probably
the services of diver will be necessary.
