Editorial Dignity.

Just after we went TO press last week
and while on our way to Abraham
Whites grocery, we met Dan Williams,
who owns the livery stable on Violet
street. Mr.. williams did not return
our bow of recognition, but advancing
upon us in a threatening manner, he
said:
"Mr. Colwell. you owe me two dol
lars, and you either hand over or I
will take it out OF your hide!"
"Nr. Williams" we kindly replied.
though much astonished at his abrupt
ness, we know we owe you two dollars
but we cannot pay 1t at present AS
soon as the money comes In on sub
scription you shall have IT,"
This was the best we could do, but
so far from letting the matter drop
he knocked our hat into the middle OF
the street. Then he kicked Us and cali
ed us names. We did not fight back.
Our editorial dignity was at stake. and
we maintained IT, Even when Mr.. Will
lIans hit US in the back with an old
tin can we did not turn TO handy
words with him. We think that an ed
itor should maintain his dignity at
all times and under all circumstances.
and our wife is highly pleased at our
conduct in the affair mentioned. Mr..
williams is beneath our notice. He may
kick US again and again. but II will
only be to strengthen The feeling Of
public sympathy towards us.-clymer

I'll eat my half and retire" said
the Fox as he fell to, and ten minutes

Alas, but should have known

called to the Fox

coast the beach diggings nave been
staked out, and it is curious sight to
see the long line of busy workers grub

heaps for their precious yellow dust.
The farther out one goes the. coarser
the gold, so naturally the richest dig

Never before has such easy mining

thing more different from Klondike

up and down in strip of fairly wide
tide land. varying from 40 to 60 feet.
Behind this is the tundra, or black al
luvial soil, which is from three to six
feet higher than the sand beach itself.

From a scientific standpoint one of the
most interesting discoveries made by the
government survey in the Pacific was that
of submarine mountain range about 500
knots from Guam, which apparently con-
meets with one which extends from the
coast of Japan to the BONN Islands In this
range was found single peak which came
to within 49S feet of the surface, and a
