The Car of Russia is young in years
and reign, yet he has already mad his
full share of the gloom which hung
over his fathers life, and which makes
all the rulers of Russia. with all their
arbitrary power, live in continual dread
of the blow which may fall at any in
slant. The blind tyranny of former
times has sown the harvest of blind
revenge which modern and more mod
crate emperors are reaping. The pres
ent Gar is disposed to be just, reason
able and to consider the good of his
subjects, but his mild and pacific dis
position is no more a protection to him
from fanatical assassins than the
severity of mis- predecessors. His --latest
escape from the assassin was a very
narrow one.

Captain Crowninshield's report brings
out the fact that the superior gunnery
of the American ships, to which our
brilliant victories over Spain must be
credited, was largely due to the fact
that a corps of gunners had just com
pleted the training course on the AM
phitrte, and these were the men be
hind the guns who did such brilliant
and effective work. This was one OF
the rare instances in which the United
States government, in, time of peace
prepared for war, and the result fully
indicated the wisdom of that course
Experience teaches that the practice
should be extended to all branches OF
the service.

Ter, last week, made Rear Admiral
Bunce the senior officer of the navy,
but as Bunce will himself retire on
December %. Rear Admiral Dewey
will become the ranking officer of the
navy on Christmas day Dewey will
be 62 years of age in December of next
year, and will then be retired unless
Congress passes a special act extend
ing his term of service 10 years, as was
done in the cases of several officers
who won renown in the Civil War
Such action would be very appropriate
and it is also hoped that when Dewey
becomes ranking officer of the navy
next month it may be with the title of
admiral especially created for him by
an act of Congress.

A MAINE POSTMASTER.
Undertakes a Contract Without the Sanction
OF the New Administration.

All the mail matter dropped in Au-
gusta postofiice addressed to East
Surry, Me-, small village four miles
southwest of Ellsworth and all letters
and papers addressed to Augusta
mailed in East Surry for some years,
have passed through the hands of Mr..
or Mrs. j. G.. Gray. When Mr.. Gray
unlocked the mail bags and shook the
contents or locked them up for the mail
carrier to convey them to the depot,
it mattered not to him whether the
letters were harbingers of peace and
JOY, missives containing regrets or con-
dolences or ordinary dues for long over
due accounts, his object was to get
through the task as soon as possible, as
easily as possible, and to sit down and
rest, for his back ached and every
movement of his arms brought him
pain. Very concisely he states below
what he considers was the cause of it,
how he tried to get rid of it, and finally
what agency he employed to radically
root out the trouble. Mr.. Gray says
I'm 1861 when in the army near Wash

not break out, and the trouble settled
in my kidneys. This was the start of

rather serious kidney trouble. produce

INV 10 DISPOSE Of the Anarchists.

''~'s -
The assassination of the Empress of
Austria was a shock to the whole world
and II was the prime cause for a great
anti-anarchist movement, but some
time later, after the anarchist plot to
kill the Emperor of Germany, the King
Of italy. the Car of Russia, and the
entire royal family of Italy. the Euro
pasan feeling against the anarchists be-
came intense and it is now certain that
the most severe steps will be taken by
the powers, and, in fact, every nation,
to crush out one of the most terrible
The Italian government which issued
the call for the great international
conference to be held in the near
future, did so because it was smarting
under the charge of being a breeding
ground for anarchists who have been
the murderers of so many royal per-
sonages in the past few years. The re-
plies of the different nations to the
invitation to join in such conference
were gratifying. They did not enter
into details, and some limited that in
their opinion the movement would fail,
but they all expressed a desire to do
everything in their power to assist in
making the experiment a success.

the conference it is impossible to pre-
diet. The German cabinet, it is stated,
ment, supplemented with necessary
legislation in each state, whereby each
government shall arrest all anarchists
within its territory and deport them to
their native country. leaving the au
thorities of the latter to watch and re-
press them according to the laws.
Each European state would by this
plan become responsible for its an
archists.
The suggestion that meets with most
favor however, is the one that pro-
vides for the exile of all anarchists.
Most of the foreign police and secret
service officials believe that the only
good anarchist is a dead one, and that
be at least deported to some penal set
Element where they would be guarded

One of the nations will have a repre-
sentative at the coming conference
who will propose that the countries Of
the world join in securing a certain
island in the Pacific ocean near the
equator. said to be particularly de-
sirable because of the fact that it is
far from any other land, is fertile but
uninhabited, and being in a storm
swept sea escape in small boats would
be impossible.
The plan is to send all anarchists to
this island and force them to spend the
remainder of their days there, where
they would be guarded and treated as
insane criminals. All nations would
assist in paying the expenses of main
tenance. Whether or not this scheme
is feasible remains to be seen, but one
thing is certain, and that is that some
thing must be done and very soon, for
the anarchists are gaining strength
each day and are continually growing

The talk about acquiring the island
of Socotra for a coaling station may
remind Americans of their peculiarly
advantageous position in the world.
Any other power with no coaling sta
tons between ports as far apart as
New York and Manila would need ct
least one-haf way, but we do not need
to send coal from New York to Ma
Mia. We can send it from San Fran
cisco, with stations in Hawaii, the La
droncs and probably the Carolines, not
to mention Samoa, on the way. Never
theless a station in the Indian ocean
seems to be consistent with the grow
ing Importance of this country as a
naval and commercial nation.
